Chapter 72 Dig out the old American house!

When Zhu Yu stood outside the university gate with a bouquet of flowers in his arms, leaning on the car and waiting for Joanna, he was fine, but the man driving a luxury car next to him made a sneer.

Zhu Yu turned to look at him but said nothing.

This person probably thinks that Zhu Yu is very low-class, both in his car and in his clothes, so he laughs like this.

Zhu Yu was too lazy to pay attention to such a superficial person. He just called Joanna and knew that she would come out soon.

After a while, Joanna came out with the two girls. When she saw Zhu Yu, Joanna ran over excitedly.

From the corner of his eye, Zhu Yu saw another girl smiling and walking towards the man driving a luxury car next to her.

In terms of Zhu Yu's beauty standards, that girl is worse in appearance than Joanna.

Joanna is very beautiful, at least she can get a score of nine from Zhu Yu, so Meng Xiaofan can almost compare with her.

Taking the rose in surprise, Joanna hugged Zhu Yu happily, and then the two of them got in the car.

Zhu Yu saw the jealousy and confusion shining in the eyes of the man with the luxury car.

As the car set off, Joanna asked Zhu Yu:

"Honey, where are we going?"

Zhu Yu said while driving:

"I want to go to the mall to buy something first, then eat, and then let's go to the hotel!"

After hearing Zhu Yu's words, Joanna's face turned slightly red, and then she nodded vigorously.

The two of them went to a nearby shopping mall. Zhu Yu took Joanna to buy clothes, but Joanna refused directly. Not only did she refuse, she also pulled Zhu Yu and bought him a suit and leather shoes.

Zhu Yu's temperament changed after he changed his clothes. Joanna's eyes were filled with sparkles and love was about to overflow from her eyes.

The two of them went to a star-rated hotel near the school. The plan was to book a room first and then go out for dinner.

Entering the room, Zhu Yu took out a box from his pocket and said a little embarrassed:

"This is a gift for you. I'm not very good at choosing. I don't know if you like it..."

Joanna opened the box with some surprise and found a platinum sapphire necklace inside. She said happily:

"I like it, I like it very much!"

Zhu Yu helped her put it on awkwardly, and Joanna looked left and right in the mirror. She was so happy that she couldn't help but turn around and hug Zhu Yu and started to kiss her.

Then it got out of hand. Fortunately, the firewood was dry enough and the fire was strong enough, so the burning time was not long.

When the fire was out, the two of them looked at each other, smiled, packed up and went out to eat.

Although he didn't like Western food very much, in order to take care of Joanna's habits, Zhu Yu had to make do with it. At least he could eat enough, right?

After eating, shopping and walking back, the two of them began to explore the mysteries of human beings again.

During the exploration process, disputes arose and battles began. Zhu Yu adopted tactics such as advancing separately and attacking in the east, attacking in the west, focusing on key points, and taking both sides into account. Finally, after disarming, he won several battles.

Joanna lay on the bed with her charming eyes, not wanting to move at all and unable to move.

She really couldn't figure it out. In the eyes of her classmates, weren't Asian men bad? Isn't this a bit too much?

The next day, the two of them went downstairs for dinner feeling refreshed.

Zhu Yu sent Joanna to the school gate and met the man with the luxury car again.

Seeing the extremely beautiful Joanna and the energetic Zhu Yu, the man with the dark circles under his eyes felt like he wanted to cry.

Zhu Yu drove to meet Jason, loaded some tools into the car, and the four people in the two cars headed for the address provided by Meng Xiaofan.

This is a manor covering an area of ​​several hundred acres. From the outside, there are pastures, farmland, and lush green residential areas, with many ancient-looking tree species.

Driving into the manor, Zhu Yu was a little surprised to find that Meng Xiaofan and Song Yan were also there.

Song Yan even winked at him proudly.

The owner of the manor was an old white man with gray hair. When Zhu Yu came in, he was smiling and talking to Meng Xiaofan.

Meng Xiaofan introduced the two people. The old man’s name was George Thomas.

"Zhu, I heard that you are a treasure hunter in containers. In fact, we are in the same industry." George was very talkative and said with a smile, "I was also a treasure hunter when I was young. I dreamed of finding pirate treasures——"

"You must have found it." Zhu Yu said with a smile.

"How do you know?" George asked with a smile.

"I guess you bought this estate by selling your treasure."

George shook his head and said:

"No, no, no, I didn't find the treasure. To be honest, I actually bought this manor because it was said that there was a treasure left by a general during the civil war in this manor."

Zhu Yu raised his eyebrows.

The Civil War that George was talking about was probably the American Civil War that he learned about from history books.

"It's a pity that I have spent thirty years without finding the treasure. Now I am going to Los Angeles to reunite with my son, so I have to sell this place."

George's tone was a little sad, but then he cheered up and said with a smile: "So I hope you can gain something today, so that even if what you get is not mine, I will feel at ease."

Zhu Yu heard something in his heart and asked:

"If we really find the treasure, how will we share it?"

George laughed:

"If you really find it, then give me 20% as rent. Of course, I want something in kind as a souvenir."

Then, George explained to Zhu Yu which things in the manor needed to be packed away and which ones did not need to be moved. Then he greeted a few people and drove away.

Zhu Yu and others have one day to clean up.

After George left, Zhu Yu asked Meng Xiaofan with some confusion:

"Aren't you leaving?"

Meng Xiaofan nodded and said:

"Yanyan and I are very curious and want to see how you work."

"Okay, you will be disappointed." Zhu Yu smiled and asked Jason and others to start working.

In addition to the second floor of the main building, this manor also has a sundries warehouse, a grain warehouse, a tractor shed, a cattle pen and other buildings.

On the second floor of the main building, only a few warehouses on the first floor need to be cleaned. According to George, all his personal belongings have been moved away, the original furniture has been left to the buyer, and the sundries can only be treated as garbage.

Clear away.

All the items in the sundries warehouse are not needed, and the items in the tractor shed are not moved.

Zhu Yu first took Jason to the warehouse of the main building. The door here was open, and Zhu Yu found that it was mostly filled with old tables, chairs, damaged furniture, and old-fashioned cabinets.

"It's not valuable, just take it away." Zhu Yu said as he moved it out, "But after taking it out, check it carefully to see if there is anything missing."

After moving out a few old chairs, the space in the warehouse became larger, and Zhu Yu began to clean up the old tables. The first two old tables contained nothing useful except some useless debris.

The last old table looked very old, one of its legs was broken, and it was about to be scrapped.

I opened the drawer and found it was empty.

This is normal and within Zhu Yu's acceptance range.

Pulling out the drawer, Zhu Yu bent over and looked inside, only to find that there was nothing inside.

A little disappointed, I put the drawer back.

Song Yan looked on from the side and wanted to laugh a little.

Do the same for the next drawer.

There's still nothing in the drawer.

However, when putting the drawer back, Zhu Yu unexpectedly discovered that there was a black and white photo pinned with thumbtacks on the inner side of the drawer!

Zhu Yu curiously took down the photo carefully. Is there any surprise in it?
