326 Countless Treasures
Then, the two followed the map and dug out each treasure one by one.
They unearthed a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, porcelain, artworks, ancient fossils, thread-bound books, religious relics, etc. on the outskirts of Manila, Corregidor, Mindanao, Mindoulo and other islands.
In the deep mountains of Luzon Island, there is a "Ticket No. 8". The tunnel is 67 meters away from the ground and is piled with rows of gold bars.
The outside of the tunnel was blasted by explosives, and the bones of hundreds of people were buried.
Because it is a secret treasure, no one guards outside, which is equivalent to being in the wilderness.
Qin Di and Yan Xue each had a spirit hoe, and soon dug out boxes of gold jewelry and stored them in Naxu gourd.
Historically, after Japan surrendered in the Philippines on September 2, 1945, Yamashita Tomoto was charged with war crimes for carrying out a large-scale genocide in Manila. The US officials in charge of the trial learned from the CIA that Japan had buried treasures in the Philippines, so they tried every means to obtain the secrets during the trial. However, Yamashita did not really confess during the trial and refused to reveal the secrets of the treasures. However, the driver of Yamashita Tomotomoto, who drove for Yamashita Tomoto, attracted the special attention of the US judges.
The Filipino-born American intelligence officer Romanla imprisoned Koshima by accusing him of committing abuse and conducted a secret trial in order to reveal the treasure sites of the Japanese in the Philippines. Romanla repeatedly induced Koshima to provide information on the golden treasures. Around early October 1945, Koshima finally broke his silence and led Roshima to see more than 12 treasure sites. These treasure sites are located in very dilapidated areas in the northern suburbs of Manila.
However, the treasures found by the US military are only part of it. How much gold the Japanese army plundered from Southeast Asia has always been an insolvent mystery.
Later, Philippine President Marcos realized that there was still a lot of gold in the Philippines, so he secretly excavated and enriched his personal pockets many times. Marcos and his agents often secretly sold large quantities of gold in the gold markets in London, Hong Kong, Sydney and other places. Sometimes the number of gold ingots sold at one time was as high as more than 10 tons, which was more than all the known gold reserves in the Philippines. Every once in a while, a secret sale called the "Marcos Black Hawk" appeared on the world's largest gold exchange. According to the number of sales, Marcos' gold value was about tens of billions of dollars. However, after President Max was overthrown in 1986, the gold was forced to be handed over to the United States. In order to transport the gold, the United States used the aircraft carrier "Eisenhower".
In addition, many people privately searched for gold buried by the Japanese army in the mountains of the Philippines. The famous "Rojas Incident" occurred in the Philippines in the 1970s. Rojas was a private treasure hunter in the Philippines. In 1970, he found a pure gold Buddha statue in the mountains in the northern Luzon Island. It weighs about 1 ton. It can be removed from its head and has a large amount of rare jewelry hidden inside its body. After hearing about this, Philippine President Marcos sent troops to snatch the Buddha statue from his home, causing an uproar in the Philippines' public opinion.
Since then, Japan's secret of gold hidden in Southeast Asia has been unraveled, and the huge number shows how much Japan plundered Asia. In addition to the countries invaded by Japan, the targets of Japan also included individuals in occupied areas, churches, temples, banks, companies and underground economic groups. Some people have estimated that Japan's "trophy" obtained in Southeast Asia has nearly 100 billion US dollars, and many rare treasures that cannot be estimated, which has caused the Asian people to suffer immeasurable losses.
After finding more "royal treasure points", the US intelligence agencies sent people to secretly poach gold nuggets, diamonds and platinum worth billions of dollars. Whether it was General Douglas MacArthur or President Truman, they regarded digging these treasure points as the top secrets in the United States from the very beginning.
Between 1945 and 1948, gold worth tens of billions of dollars was shipped to the United States and did not return it to victims of Southeast Asian countries, but deposited it into 176 banks in 42 countries respectively. Among them, the Geneva Branch of the Swiss United Bank opened a gold account with tens of billions of dollars in the name of "Lancedale". After the dissolution of the Strategic Intelligence Agency, this huge wealth was accepted by the CIA and became its off-book funds, and its use and dominance were not subject to any supervision. Shockingly, there was a portion of gold that became the private wealth of Americans. The largest account was opened in the name of MacArthur's son Arthur MacArthur in Zurich, with a total of nearly 100 tons of gold. Former US President Hoover also had 7.5 tons of gold in the private account of Credit Suisse Bank! The search for a large amount of treasures greatly increased the capital of the United States for the Cold War.
According to the official disclosure of the United States, the Truman government combined the treasures found by the United States in Asia, together with the treasures plundered by German French filaments collected by the United States in Europe, as a "secret political action fund" to use the costs of confronting the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
This time, since Qin Di came, he wanted to eat all these treasures, and not even leave any residue for the Americans!
The two of them were moving very quickly, digging five or six places a day, and in less than a month, they dug out all the treasure points.
In fact, there are not 175 treasure points, there are only 75 real treasure points! The remaining one hundred are all confusing.
Qin Di was too lazy to calculate how much he gained. In addition to gold and silver, there were also diamonds, jewelry, jade, agate, ivory, coral, tortoiseshell, and even wood with small-leafed red sandalwood! Many things cannot be measured in price!
Yan Xue also wanted to find the place where the Awa Maru sinks and fish out gold and silver, but the sea could not be located, and she did not know the specific location of the shipwreck, so she had to give up.
Then, they came to a remote town in Indonesia, found the warehouse of Fangjia Candy Store, and took away the 13,000 tons of sugar that had been stored for several years.
Immediately afterwards, they took a merchant ship to Japan.
On the afternoon of January 10, Qin Di met his third uncle Qin Hanxu.
Chiba Prefecture is not far from Tokyo, close to the seaside, and there is a luxury house covering ten acres of land and surrounded by ivy fences. Although it is winter, the grass has not yet withered.
In these days, ordinary Japanese people were very poor, and it was rare to have rich people like Qin Hanxu. He occupied ten acres of manors with his financial resources, which was already very low-key.
Huizi seemed very happy when she saw him and Yan Xue, and kept asking about her well-being.
"Why are you here? You must be exhausted when you travel for a long distance, you're going to be bumpy all the way?"
Qin Di smiled and said, "It's not tired at all. Let's come and see you. We have to rush back before the Spring Festival."
Huizi said: "I heard that you have a pair of twins, why don't you bring them here? It's a pity that this damn war is inconvenient to get along. I haven't seen them before!"
Yan Xue asked, "We haven't seen Qin Xi for a long time, and I want to grow up to be a big girl."
Huizi smiled and said, "That's right? Ah Xi is 12 years old and is about the same height as me. She is still in school now."
