1714, Northern branch(1/4)

Speaking of those days, Zhang Jinze seemed to be very angry.

It can be seen that what Luo Wei did in some aspects back then really made Zhang Jinze very dissatisfied.

Looking at Zhang Jinze in front of him, Gu Chen reminded him: "What did you mean by that incident back then?"

"I can't tell you this. It's a secret between our brothers." Zhang Jinze directly refused Gu Chen's question.

This also did not occur to Gu Chen.

Lu Weiwei also said angrily: "When was it? You are still hiding something. Do you know why we came to see you today?"

"Why?" Zhang Jinze seemed to have no idea about Luo Wei's current situation.

Lu Weiwei shook her head and sighed: "Luo Wei is dead."

"Wha... what?" After hearing this statement, Zhang Jinze, who had been unwilling to cooperate before, suddenly became pale and quickly asked:

"You...you mean, Luo Wei is dead?"

"That's right, he was poisoned to death." Lu Weiwei didn't hide it. She came to look for him this time because of this matter.

But at this time, Zhang Jinze seemed to be deeply shocked.

I couldn't calm down for quite a while.

When Officer Wang saw this, he also reminded him: "Zhang Jinze, we are here this time just to find out who Luo Wei has offended? Why did someone want to harm him?"

After the words fell, the scene suddenly became quiet.

Zhang Jinze didn't seem to listen to Officer Wang's words at all, but was immersed in his own thinking.

Seeing him in a daze, Gu Chen reminded him: "Zhang Jinze! Zhang Jinze!"

"Ah?" Zhang Jinze, who had regained consciousness, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, turned to look at Gu Chen and said: "Police...comrade police, is this Luo Wei really dead? You...you didn't lie to me, right?"

"

"What did we lie to you for?" It felt like Zhang Jinze was dumbfounded after hearing the news of Luo Wei's death. Gu Chen also explained:

"Luo Wei's body is still lying on the inspection table of our Municipal Bureau's Technical Section."

"How could this happen? How could Luo Wei die? I remember hearing people say that he seemed to have gone to Western Europe and made a lot of money, and then returned to Guangdong and Qiong Province to deal in seafood."

"If he continues to operate this kind of business, he can definitely turn around, but...but how could he?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Jinze broke out in a cold sweat, directly touched the cup on the table, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea to relieve his nervousness.

But Gu Chen could still clearly see that Zhang Jinze's hands were beginning to show signs of trembling.

"Why did this Zhang Jinze have such a big reaction after hearing the news of Luo Wei's death?" Gu Chen couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

"You know, even Luo Wei's ex-girlfriend Xu Juan, the proprietress of 857 Bar, was sad when she learned about Luo Wei's death, but she didn't react so strongly."

"Obviously, there is indeed something wrong with Zhang Jinze. He reacted too violently to Luo Wei's death."

Glancing at Zhang Jinze's face secretly, Gu Chen found that at this moment, Zhang Jinze's eyes began to become dazed involuntarily, as if he was still thinking about something.

But all this was also seen by Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha.

"Zhang Jinze." Seeing Zhang Jinze still thinking about the problem, Gu Chen asked him directly: "Did Luo Wei offend anyone during this time?"

"I don't know, I don't know. I haven't contacted him for a long time." Zhang Jinze shook his head in denial.

"What did you mean by that thing before?" Gu Chen asked again.

Zhang Jinze tried hard to remember, but still explained to Gu Chen and others: "Before... before, when we were in the same company, that is, before Luo Wei went bankrupt."

"Once, when we were transporting the machines produced by our company to other places for installation, we met a foreign woman at the construction site."

"Foreign woman?" Yuan Shasha heard this and quickly asked Zhang Jinze: "Is this woman named Tessa?"

"Yes, my name is Tessa, how did you know?" Zhang Jinze was shocked when he heard Yuan Shasha's words.

Yuan Shasha looked at Gu Chen, and Gu Chen asked seriously: "Don't worry about this for now, what will happen next?"

"Later? Later, Tessa heard that we were engaged in mechanical engineering. She once asked us to send out a construction vehicle and rent it to her. At that time, she took a group of people and seemed to be going to the mountains. It was said that they were going to hunt for treasures.

."

"Be more specific." There was a problem when he heard this, and Officer Wang also reminded him.

Zhang Jinze didn't dare to hide it, so he corrected him: "They say... they say it's treasure hunting, but it's actually tomb robbing."

"Because this foreign woman and her gang seem to have discovered an ancient tomb, but because the ancient tomb is too complex, it is difficult to operate it manually alone."

"So, the person named Tessa, who was accompanied by a Chinese military advisor, asked Tessa to bring a construction truck over to help."

"But wouldn't this expose it?" Lu Weiwei said.

Zhang Jinze nodded silently: "Yes, it is indeed easy to be exposed, so that day we met at a farmhouse restaurant near a construction site. The woman named Tessa heard that we were engaged in mechanical engineering, so she deliberately got close to us."

"Later, Tessa called Luo Wei and I aside alone and asked us if we wanted to make a fortune with her."

"She told us that if we want, help her get a small excavator and go into the mountains. Everyone will be able to see it when the time comes. The less people know about it, the better."

"In this way, we discussed in private and finally figured out Tessa's purpose. These people are the descendants of the Northern School of Grave Robbers."

"And this person named Tessa was originally Chinese and one of the descendants of the Northern Grave Robbers. Later, because she was avoiding cholera, she followed several generations of others to go to Southeast Asia and settle in Southeast Asia."

"But because my family is in decline, according to family records, I plan to get back some of the treasures I got from the tomb robbery."

"Isn't that digging your own grave?" Lu Weiwei thought of this, and some strange pictures flashed through her mind.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But Zhang Jinze waved his hand and said: "No, although it is a tomb robbery, this tomb is empty, and there are no corpses buried in it. It was just built to hide people's eyes.

Secret passage warehouse."

"On the surface, this is an inconspicuous wild tomb, but in fact, there is a secret passage underneath the wild tomb, which is where they buried their treasures."

"Because it's so old, this woman named Tessa, along with her men, has been searching in the country for a long time before finally determining the location."

"But they will let you participate easily?" Lu Weiwei felt that there was a suspicion of lying.

After all, how can you easily participate in the excavation of things buried by your ancestors? Participate in dividing the spoils?

This is obviously somewhat taken for granted.

Zhang Jinze knew that the police did not believe it, so he quickly explained: "We were also suspicious at first. After all, such a good thing seemed to come too suddenly."

"But I found that they really encountered a bottleneck, because it is basically difficult to dig that underground passage simply by relying on manpower."

"Even if it is possible, it may take several months. During this period, if you come here every day, you may easily expose the target."

"So they want to solve the problem quickly and adopt the form of dividing the spoils, so that we can participate and help in the excavation."

"Afterwards, they will give us a portion of the proceeds from the excavation, and everyone will keep the secret and make a fortune together."

Having said this, Zhang Jinze seemed to still have lingering fears.

After Gu Chen recorded all this, he continued to ask Zhang Jinze: "Then did you agree later?"

"I agree, of course I agree." Zhang Jinze nodded unabashedly and said earnestly: "Back then, Luo Weigang and I had just started our business, and our business was still in its infancy."

"And at that time, we were all under various loan pressures and had to run the company, so making money was the last priority."

"I thought I could make a lot of money by coming to this area. If what Tessa said is true, then it would be much more profitable than doing machinery manufacturing, so we decided to go there with them and have a look."

"What happened next?" Lu Weiwei asked again.

"Then? Then we called a confidant, the driver who has been with us since we opened the factory. That guy is an all-round talent. He has driven an excavator and a truck at a construction site before."

"So we rented a small excavator locally and towed it directly up the mountain. We originally had a treasure hunting mentality to give it a try."

"I thought it might be a lie, but I just wanted to give it a try. After all, if nothing can be found, Tessa and the others will also pay a fee as a reward. It doesn't hurt to think about it."

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Jinze also tried to calm down, tried to think back and said:

"At that time, everyone was obsessed with money and it felt like we were just trying our luck, but the result made us overjoyed."

"Did you find any treasure?" Officer Wang quickly asked, feeling that this was interesting.

Zhang Jinze nodded silently and admitted proactively: "Yes, we used an excavator to break open the grave and indeed found that it was an empty grave. In fact, there was nothing underneath."

"But further down, it's terrible. There is indeed a secret passage inside. We used an excavator and spent a full six hours before finally violently breaking open the door to the secret room."

"Then, Luo Wei, I, the brother, and Tessa's people each sent one person in to check the situation."

"On our side, Luo Wei and Tessa are going in. Tessa seems to be very experienced, because the map of this secret passage was left by Tessa's ancestors, and there is not much danger."

"So, you found a lot of good things in this secret passage, right?" Gu Chen asked.

"Yes, there are gains, but not much." Zhang Jinze sighed quietly and said helplessly: "It's less than we imagined."

"However, as hard work and hush money, Tessa still gave the three of us some antiques and told us the age of the antiques."

"How much is it worth?" Gu Chen turned the pen with his right hand and raised his head to ask him.

Zhang Jinze thought back and said: "Probably, the total value is more than one million."

"After all, these things were hidden by Tessa's ancestors, and they can be considered as belongings to Tessa's ancestors. The fact that we can get this amount of antiques can be considered an unexpected gain."

"What happens next?" Lu Weiwei asked again.

"What happens next?" Zhang Jinze scratched the back of his head and said with some regret: "Then later, according to the agreement, after we filled up the soil, we separated from Tessa and the others."
