Chapter 20, Gold

"Come here." The excited Lin Yi lowered his voice and greeted Na Zhen.

"Open the flashlight to see if it is, I'll determine the approximate range." Lin Yi took off his clothes and wrapped the flashlight so as to prevent the light from overflowing as much as possible.

"What a rainbow!" Na Zhen was undoubtedly very happy to see what he had guessed for several years.

"It doesn't feel too big," Lin Yi looked at the range of the rain cloth.

"How big can the inside of the coffin be? They may have taken some of it, and there may be some other places, so it would be nice to have something here."

"I touch it, it's better to have porcelain, otherwise it's not easy to dig in the dark." Lin Yi touched the flashlight with his hand, and the touch felt as hard as a stone.

"It's not really a gold bar, right?" Lin Yi lowered his voice, and after saying that, he looked at Na Zhen's hand habitually.

The woman was empty-handed, Lin Yian felt much more at ease, and then she felt that she had made a big fuss.

The opening was smoothly, the rain cloth was thick but not large, which disappointed Lin Yi a little. However, the weight was not light, which gave him some comfort.

After the thing was opened, it was not opened immediately, so it was put aside. First, he used the flashlight to see if there was anything he had missed in the pit. He didn't want to leave a handle, even if it was an illusory handle, he didn't want to.

The process of filling soil was much faster. After burying it and confirming that there was nothing wrong, the two of them rushed home quickly.

After tying the wooden door, Lin Yi quickly took off the rain cloth and said in surprise: "It's indeed gold."

"As the saying goes: Antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times. According to the small peasant thought in feudal society, gold in troubled times is more important, so it is completely understandable that Gou Laobao abandoned antiques and retained gold during the ten years." Na Zhen analyzed.

"It's reasonable, five big yellow croakers and three small yellow croakers." Lin Yi had a headache and it was hard to tell.

"You get three big ones, and the others belong to me." Na Zhen looked at the entangled Lin Yi and gave a division.

"You're not losing a lot." Lin Yi looked at her.

There are 10000 large yellow croaker and 1000 small yellow croaker. During the Republic of China, one liang is 31.25 grams now.

"Why should I get it?" Na Zhen's mouth slanted and he narrowed his eyes at him.

"Then I'll suffer some loss. I'll make the most of my strength. Don't get tired of you." Lin Yi looked good for you, and then promised, "I'll compensate you after discount."

"I knew it would be like this." Na Zhen smiled quietly, as if I had seen through you, he stood up and stretched his body and said, "Huh~, after seeing the real thing, the excitement disappeared, so sleepy."

"Then are you going back?" Lin Yi also blinked.

"When you go back, why don't you go back? Let the things be put here first." Na Zhen glanced at Huang Jin, then walked towards the gate.

However, when she walked to the door, she stopped again. She couldn't help but think that her grandfather was a person who was easily awakened. If she went back, they wouldn't hear the sound of motorcycles now. It would be impossible for them to lie to them that they had come back in the middle of the night.

"Go and boil some warm water for me." Na Zhen turned around and couldn't leave, then headed to the closet in his room.

That posture and look were more familiar with Lin Yi's feelings.

This night, Lin Yi was washed with cold water and warm water.

Lin Yi was on the chair, and Na Zhen slept soundly on the bed in the room.

Maybe it was because I was too tired from working last night, and even on the chair, Lin Yi slept harder.

...

the next day.

When Lin Yi struggled to open his eyes when he felt someone was pushing him repeatedly.

"Have you been home?" Lin Yi saw that she was not wearing the clothes she had after taking a shower last night, nor the one she had yesterday.

"Well, I woke up this morning and found a problem." Na Zhen moved a small stool and sat next to him.

"What's the problem?" Lin Yi expelled his sleepiness after hearing this.

"Last night, I was so happy that I didn't think too much about it, but after calming down, I found something was wrong." Na Zhen turned his head and looked at him, with Lin Yi's figure reflected in his pupils.

"I know what you mean." Lin Yi looked at her, and suddenly his mind was inspiration. "Gold is not afraid of water, there is no need to use rain cloth to do this."

"If you don't want to disperse things, just find another container." Lin Yi said, his eyes full of smiles.

"In fact, it's very simple to verify whether our guess is right or not."

"Yu Bu." The eyes spoke in unison, and then the two of them laughed tacitly.

Bolt the door of the main hall and spread the rain cloth.

"Sure enough, the rain cloth here is less than half the size of the carport before." Na Zhen looked at the verification and was happy, and began to speculate on the loophole last night.

"That's right, otherwise there would be too little gold yesterday. I'm sorry for his ancestors' identity."

Lin Yi estimated that those pieces of gold were a big and small fortune in the eyes of ordinary people, but compared to the previous industries of the Gou Laobao family, it is not worth mentioning.

Na Zhen also nodded, "I think so too, but after all, his house has been cleaned up so many times, so it's normal that it's not too much left."

"Then is it possible? The other rain cloth should be afraid of rain." Lin Yi thought for a while, and then said, "The rain cloth is probably just a layer on the outside, and there should be something better sealing inside."

"Are you like that?" Na Zhen looked at him and sought his advice.

"It's fragile. I think there are also packages outside the jar, such as wooden boxes and iron boxes, which are anti-heavy and have a fixed space structure." Lin Yi thinks that the rain cloth is a package box or something.

"It should be like this." Na Zhen nodded in agreement.

The two discussed several places where there might be something, but they didn't come to a conclusion. They fell into deep thought again.

After a long time, Na Zhen poked his arm with his index finger: "Where do you think Dog Laobao likes to stay the most in his later years?"

"Stone Arch Bridge, I said it last night." Lin Yi knew what she meant, "After he was sixty, he liked to suck bamboo tubes and hookahs on the stone bridge. As long as it didn't rain, he could hardly thunder every day. This has become a habit for villagers."

"Yes, and he often sits on the bridge's contribution monument. When people get old, they have a place to lean on." Na Zhen found paper and pen from his room.

I saw her draw a circle, draw a horizontal line in the middle to separate the circle, and dot a little horizontal line.

"This circle represents a radius of 300 meters around him. If it is too wide, it will be someone else's home."

Na Zhen nodded when he saw Lin Yi and then slashed the half circle, "The shadow part represents his back. The horizontal line is a bridge, and this point represents the bridge monument."

"We analyze the sight of him sitting smoking." Na Zhen pointed the circle.

Then she divided the blank part into four, from right to left: paddy fields, rivers, paddy fields, and vegetable fields.

"The land on the right is more than one acre of paddy fields, with a flat terrain that is not blocked by sight. During the busy farming period, rice is planted, and other vegetables are planted in other years and months, and the fields are from others." Lin Yi pointed to the piece on the right of the part without shadows.

"More importantly, Tian's owner, Mr. Zou San, often fought with Gou Laobao when he was young, and he had a feud to the point of using a hunting rifle; he didn't see each other until they were old." Na Zhen's eyes began to shiny again.

"The river in the middle is also eliminated. There are too many people who dig river gold and fish fine sand, and there is too much uncertainty, so Gou Laobao won't be so naive.

The field on the left side of the river is different. Except for planting rice, there are basically no economic crops in other periods." Na Zhen thought about it and drew a curve to represent the river.

"Because the river moves from northwest to southeast, the fields on the left are often washed away by river water and the area becomes smaller and smaller. Almost every summer, heavy water will rise, and some of the ridges will collapse."

"Exclude again?" Lin Yi turned his head and looked at her.

"Yes, the owner of the field on the left is an incompetent person. He has no money and is reluctant to ask a stonemason to help him repair the river and keep waterproof." Na Zhen smiled confidently again, "But he is a down-to-earth and hardworking person, and he has no skills but he repairs the ridges of the field once a year."

Lin Yi took over the conversation, "There are too many movements here and too frequent, so if you exclude it, you will only have the vegetable field on the left. There is a willow tree next to the roadside, which is a dog treasure."

"No, the operation space of this vegetable field is not large, and it is from another bully of Zheng Butcher in the village.

This man is irritable. Whoever makes him angry? He always uses a pig knife to hit the door and smashes the window. Dog Laobao dares not offend him in his later years. The older he gets, the more afraid he is to die, and he loses his aura."

The butcher Na Zhen mentioned was actually a reckless person, but also a kind-hearted person.

Hearing Na Zhen's analysis of the butcher, Lin Yi's pupils shrank suddenly, and he felt that his whole body had been suddenly opened to the Ren and Du meridians, and he suddenly figured out the key to the problem.

If you want to talk about who changed the most in the Lin Yi family, except for a few people who studied outside to change their destiny, Zheng Butcher.

As I remember, his daughter drove a 5-series BMW at the age of eighteen or nineteen, which was in her early 2005.

The profession of butcher is relatively profitable, but it is a bit too fast to buy a few houses in the town and a car for himself and his daughter.

Besides, Butcher Zheng is not a person who likes to play cards and bet on treasures. He has no extra hobbies. After selling the meat, he helps his wife do some housework at home, grow vegetables, wash clothes and cook, which determines that he has no way to make a fortune.

However, he has a little specialty and knows a lot about electricity. Occasionally, his neighbor's wires block the way in the house and even asks him to help when the wires burn.

The appliances were broken, and the TV station liked to find him if it couldn't be received.

But even so, this person has no prerequisites to become rich.

The only possibility is that when the cement poles in the village replaced the old tree poles, they were lucky enough to find Gou Laobao's things.

Because of the long and heavy poles, they are generally buried deeper, and burying them more than 1 meter underground is a basic requirement.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi felt that his thinking was getting more and more correct.

Then he compared the current telephone poles near the stone bridge with the cement poles replaced by later generations, and roughly determined the range.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Lin Yi in a daze, Na Zhen shook his hand in front of him.

"I think I understand." Lin Yi looked at Na Zhen and said happily, "Gou Laobao is so powerful. This willow tree is indeed a reference."

"Hmm?" Na Zhen frowned, not reacting for a moment.
