Bai Yue has already squatted down. Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. It is true and false. You will know after digging a few shovels.
Bai Yue called: "Liang Meng, Xu Feiyang, dig."
Liang Meng and Xu Feiyang had no choice but to copy the guy and do hard labor.
Since Bai Yue entered Jian's house, the scope of their work seems to have expanded a lot. They have done many jobs that they have never done before, such as digging graves, digging graves, digging graves...
But what can be done? It is not easy to make a living in this era.
A place was soon dug, and it was half a man deep. As the two gardeners said, there was nothing except soil, stones, insects, and dead branches and leaves.
Not only the two gardeners breathed a sigh of relief, but also Cheng Shuo breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone squatted down and poked at the mound with sticks.
The boxes of gold stolen from the vault were all gold ingots, twelve ounces each. If they were hidden in the soil, they would be quite obvious. Even if they were stained with soil, they would still be very obvious. There is no need to poke around at all. It only needs to be revealed when the ground is dug.
You can see it when you come.
Bai Yue was also poking, but only a few stones came out, large, small, and dark.
"How can there be any gold?" Qin Jiu muttered a few words and threw a handful of stones mixed with soil.
Bai Yue was also digging soil. She hadn't dug soil for a long time. She unexpectedly found that the soil here was different from the outside. Although it was slightly wet, the viscosity was quite high. And there was a small amount of sand mixed in, so it was easy to dig.
It's quite easy and not strenuous.
Pinch it up, it doesn't want to fall apart yet.
So Bai Yue performed impromptuly, lost his tools, rolled up his sleeves, gathered a handful of soil from the ground, and then squeezed it in front of everyone.
First a cylinder, then pinch out a few corners, then pinch it, and then pinch it again.
There is a hexagonal pagoda on the ground, and it has three floors.
Then Bai Yue made another bungalow and directed Jian Yu: "Break some small branches for me...just two or three leaves will do."
Bai Yue installed a green belt in front of the house.
It's not surprising that Cheng Shuo knew Bai Yue's expertise in this area. He once accepted a candy figure made by Bai Yue. Of course, there was only one person in the office. But Jian Yu must not let Jian Yu know about this.
But everyone was very curious, especially Qiu Wanwan and the others. Bai Yue had already started pinching people, pinching a few little figures and placing them at the door.
"Oh my god, is this hand a hand? It looks the same as ours, how come it's such a coincidence?" Qiu Wanwan held Bai Yue's hand in disbelief and looked at it over and over.
Bai Yue smiled proudly, and then thought for a while: "Pick up some pebbles and give them to me."
There is only one small road left, and we are all alive.
There were a lot of pebbles in the soil, so everyone picked round ones of good size. After Jian Yu picked up a few, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
He weighed it and then rubbed one of them with his finger.
The stone was dug out of the soil, and the soil was a little wet and covered with a layer of soil.
"What's wrong?" Everyone saw his strange movements and looked over one after another.
"This stone is a bit strange." Jian Yu wiped it, and the dirt was wiped clean, revealing the original color of the stone.
It is black. Most of the stones in this soil are black, but there are also other colors.
Bai Yue took a stone, looked at it under the sun, and said doubtfully: "This color... seems to be painted on it."
A strange thought came to everyone's mind.
Although Bai Yue had fun making sand, they had not forgotten that they came to dig in the soil to find gold ingots. Although this obviously did not look like gold ingots, who knew what the suspicious stones could be.
At this time, Jian Yu showed the progress he had made in practicing Qigong with Bai Chuan these days. He held a stone between his two fingers, and when he exerted force, the stone cracked.
"Wow." Bai Yue especially praised: "You are so awesome."
Jian Yu was quite proud.
Originally, everyone wanted to cheer for him, but Bai Yue was so positive, so everyone stopped talking. Anyway, Jian Yu was already very happy with Bai Yue's praise.
The stone was split in half, but the inside was not black. Facing the sun, what was exposed was golden.
Everyone was surprised, and Yin Liming and Xu Zhongkun were even more stunned.
Cheng Shuo couldn't help but said: "Didn't you say that what was lost was a box of gold ingots?"
Bai Yue also took half of it. Everyone looked at the irregular small gold nugget and looked at each other. Whose gold ingot looks like this.
So is the palace and treasury reliable? We still haven’t figured out what is missing. Even if we don’t do anything about it, it would be strange if we can find it.
"Come here." Jian Yu said immediately: "Sift out all the stones in the soil. We will send people to guard the other flower gardens to prevent them from approaching."
Liang Meng took the order and took the people there immediately.
The missing box is not gold ingots, but broken pieces with different rules. What about the others? There is more than just this box of gold in the palace treasury. Are the others filled with gold ingots, or are they also broken gold like this?
Cheng Shuo said, "I'll go into the palace and have a look."
He is now very curious as to whether the other gold ingots in the treasury are gold ingots.
Although there are so many people here, the only one who can freely enter and exit the treasury is Prince Ning. Moreover, the emperor is very assured of him. As his younger brother, he will not go to the treasury to get money by himself. That would be stupid. He needs
For money, all you need to do is ask your mother.
My curiosity was overwhelming and I went there in a hurry.
Others were scattered in the flower gardens in various parts of the house, sifting all the soil, and really sifted out a lot of black stones.
Xie Pingsheng did some research and prepared a large bucket of black and yellow potion. He put all the stones in and soaked them for a while. When he took them out again, they returned to their original golden appearance.
Bai Yue thought this was very interesting, so he took a net bag and rolled up his sleeves to fish out the golden beans from the bucket. On the other side was Qin Jiu. The two of them had a great time fishing. People who didn't know it thought that everything they fished would belong to them.
All of them.
"There are so many gold nuggets, it's so cute." Bai Yue grabbed a handful, dropped it from his fingers, and grabbed another handful.
"It's quite cute." Xie Pingsheng stood aside and asked someone to go through it again with water: "But this thing is strange. How did the ingot turn into scraps of gold? And even if it was just a box of scraps of gold, how could it be obtained from the treasury?
Was he taken out of there?"
No one can answer this question, everyone is confused.
Soon, Cheng Shuo came back from the palace in high spirits. He said without approaching: "Sure enough, there are three boxes of such broken gold in the treasury. They are all large and small gold nuggets. They look like they were made together.
.But it has always been at the bottom and has not been touched in these years."
Cheng Shuo looked at the pile of gold fragments that had been cleaned, grabbed a handful and said, "It looks like it was picked up from corners. This batch of gold is the tax collected from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. I asked,
The process of collecting this batch of taxes that year was quite tortuous, and the government officials of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty resigned and returned home in the second year. I think there is a reason."
"Eastern Zhou...Eastern Zhou..." Bai Yue suddenly said: "Is Mullin Town in Eastern Zhou?"
