The Era of Hard Work

"What good things can you have?" Lu Jianren didn't believe it at all when he was fooling around together when he was young.

Liangzi patted the artificial leather handbag again: "Just put it in here! Seventh brother, how old are we brothers? If I lie to anyone, I can't lie to you!"

Seeing Liangzi's seriousness, Lu Jianren asked, "What's the matter? Are you a criminal?"

"Seventh brother, you still don't understand me!" Liangzi said with aggrieved face, "I just want to, but I don't have the guts!"

Lu Jianren thought about it, it was true. Of the old brothers, Liangzi was always the least courageous.

If you want to tie a bicycle tire for someone, you have to hesitate for a long time.

Liangzi approached Lu Jianren, and said in a low voice: "Gold!" Because he had been with Lu Jianren, he knew that Brother Seven seemed to be out of shape, but he was very loyal: "This is not the place, let's change it, and I will let you open it." Open your eyes."

As for the purpose of coming here this time, it is not too late to go again later.

Lu Jianren glanced back, just in time to see the signboard of the No. 1 Sports and Fitness Club, and said, "Come on, Liangzi, let's go over there. It's opened by my nephew and daughter-in-law. They're all from my own family, so it's absolutely safe."

"OK!"

Liangzi responded and followed Lu Jianren into the fitness club.

Since the opening, this is not the first time for Lu Jianren to come here. The receptionist at the front desk recognized that this is the uncle of the big boss Song Na, so he hurried over to say hello and asked if he needed anything.

Lu Jianren said that he wanted to find a quiet place to talk, and the receptionist led him and Liangzi into an empty lounge.

Sitting next to a small round coffee table, Ryoko opened the handbag and took out a red cloth bag from it. Opening the red cloth bag, there was a layer of snow-white cotton wool inside.

Liangzi said in his heart that it was indeed an illusion that Seventh Brother became serious.

The cotton wool was disassembled to reveal what was inside. It was a round golden object, about five centimeters more, with some spots on it. I don't know if it was mud or rust. It must have been crushed by something, and it was somewhat deformed.

Liangzi pushed towards Lu Jianren: "Seventh brother, look at this golden pancake."

Lu Jianren picked it up and shook his hand. Although he was well-informed, ordinary people who have come from a difficult life would never have the opportunity to touch such a large piece of gold.

"Is it really gold?" Lu Jianren asked.

Liangzi first said: "I think it is gold." Then he smiled embarrassedly: "We have never seen such a big gold, so I want to show it to people to see if it is real. If it is real, I will sell it for money. , I am finishing the yard over there and need money urgently.”

After all, they were the old brothers back then, so Lu Jianren was still concerned: "Who do you ask to see?"

Liangzi pointed at it: "There is an art company upstairs. I went to Luozhuang yesterday. I heard people say that they buy paintings, calligraphy and gold and silver wares at high prices..."

Lu Jianren immediately thought of the company he had just been to: "Tianxiang Art Company?"

"It seems..." Liangzi pondered for a while, "It seems to be called this name."

Lu Jianren said: "It's helping foreigners. I went to see it. It seems to be cheating people to buy things."

Ryoko couldn't help hesitating.

"Where did you get this thing? Don't tell me it's from your ancestors. Your family is a serious poor and lower-middle peasant." It has never been a rich village, and the ancestors were not as rich as Lu's village.

"Seventh brother, we two brothers have nothing to say." Liangzi glanced at the closed door: "I told you, you can't pass it on."

Lu Jianren nodded: "Just say what you want."

Liangzi said simply: "The spring is getting warmer. I don't want to tidy up the yard. I want to raise it higher so that it won't rain heavily in summer, and the water from the street will pour back into the house. Seventh brother, you also know the situation in my house. There are not many people in the house. Money, digging and other jobs are all done by myself.”

Lu Jianren put the golden pancake back: "Liangzi, get to the point."

Liangzi laughed, and then said: "The north side of the village is directly connected to the southernmost end of the north-south road in your village. There is not a piece of wasteland where the grain can't grow well, so I drove a tractor there and dug a few truckloads of soil. , I didn’t pay attention when digging, and the soil was unloaded in the yard to level it out, and it was pulled out with an iron rake.”

"You boy, you are lucky." Lu Jianren nodded at him from the air: "You can dig out gold even if you dig the soil."

Liangzi is self-aware: "It's just bad luck, I went to dig in the same field, but I didn't find anything."

Lu Jianren said: "This may belong to your ancestor in Luozhuang, Liangzi, you dirty bastard, don't dig up your ancestor's grave."

Liangzi shook his head quickly: "Impossible! Impossible! The Luozhuang grave is not there! Luozhuang is poor, whose ancestors can have such a large piece of gold? The surrounding land does not grow well. Compared with other villages , Luozhuang's grain production has been low, you have forgotten that when my family was the poorest, it was thanks to Seventh Brother who helped me."

These words made Liangzi think of the most difficult time, when he was sitting at the gate hungry, his mind was blank, and his mother called him, but he didn't talk to him.

It's not that I don't want to talk, it's that I'm hungry and have no energy to talk to.

Fortunately, in the following day, Lao Qi sent his family a large scoop of sticks and wild rabbits that were so thin that only the skin and bones remained.

"Dug out of the ground?" Lu Jianren couldn't say, but felt that it was not right for Liangzi to handle it without authorization, and there might be serious consequences: "Liangzi, do you trust your seventh brother?"

Liangzi said: "Brother Seven, what are you saying? If I can't even trust you, I'm still a person?"

Lu Jianren pointed to the golden pancake on the coffee table: "Don't sell this thing casually, I feel it's risky, just wait a while, I'll ask my nephew."

Liangzi believed in Lu Jianren, but he might not trust others, so he said in his heart, "Seventh brother, just now you said..."

Lu Jianren said casually: "My nephew is worth tens of millions, how much is your thing worth? What is it in his eyes? With me here, what are you afraid of? If he dares to mess around, I will be the first to cut him off!" "

"That's fine." Liangzi had another plan. If he was really rich, could he sell this golden pancake to him?

Otherwise, where can I sell this kind of unknown thing? You can't go to the bank or gold shop to sell it, right? It doesn't feel right.

Lu Jianren took out his mobile phone, dialed Lu Dong directly, and waited for the other side to pick up, and specifically told Lu Dong to come alone.

Not long after the meeting, Lu Dong hurried over, knocked on the door and came in, asking, "Uncle Seven, what's the matter?"

He had just sent Xia Tian away there, and was about to go to the cafeteria of the Physical Education College with Song Na for dinner, when Uncle Qi called to say that there was something urgent and asked someone to come over.

Lu Jianren pointed to the things on the table: "Take a look."

Lu Dong didn't look at anything, so he greeted the person first. This person had a little impression before: "Uncle Liangzi, you are here."

When Liangzi recognized him, he felt relieved: "I thought who Seventh Brother was talking about, Dongzi, it turned out to be you."

Lu Dong just went to look at the things on the coffee table, the round golden pancakes, if this is true, is it really a four or five taels?

"Where did it come from?" Lu Dong didn't touch it.

"Your Uncle Liang Zi got it." Lu Jianren said roughly.

Liangzi checked and made up for omissions, and added a few sentences at the right time.

Lu Dong understood that it was dug out from the barren mound in the north of Luozhuang, that is, south of the intersection, which was suspected to be a mound.

Because of him, the flood in the summer of 1998 was successfully blocked in the Qingzhao River. The embankment of the Lujia Village section was not washed away, and the Luozhuang Han Tomb that was supposed to be washed out was still silent. Digging and digging out something.

According to Liangzi, the golden pancakes probably belonged to the Han Dynasty.

If he sold it casually, it is estimated that Uncle Liangzi could go to count silently and be sentenced to a few years later.

Although Lu Jianren would hurt Lu Dong from time to time, he actually knew that his nephew was more knowledgeable, and asked, "Liangzi wanted to sell, but I stopped him. Dongzi, I always feel that selling is inappropriate, why don't you ask Professor Fan?" ?”

Professor Fan and his students have often visited Lujia Village recently, so they are quite familiar with it.

When Liangzi heard that he would involve others, he became a little anxious: "Seventh brother, we agreed not to tell others!"

Lu Dong answered: "Uncle Liangzi, the things you dug out from the ground may be the treasures left by your ancestors. The country has laws and regulations. If you take or sell them without permission, you must bear legal responsibility! If you are good, you will go to jail! You and Uncle Qi are old brothers, we are all from our own family, I will not fool you with such words! If it is a cultural relic, it will be a big trouble to sell it! You should have read it from the news, Reselling cultural relics is a felony!"

After all, Liangzi is not young anymore, there are old and young, and he is a little panicked when he hears that he may go to jail.

"What... what should I do?" He looked at Lu Jianren.

Lu Dong originally wanted to say that it would be best to call the police, but suddenly thought of Ma Ming. If Ma Ming reported this matter, would it be helpful for him, who studies archaeology?

Uncle Ma treated Lujiacun well, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a key factor in Lujiacun's resurgence.

How did the "Provincial Civilized Village" sign at the entrance of the Lujia Village brigade come from?

Lu Dong pulled up a chair and sat down: "Uncle Liangzi, I have a buddy who majors in archaeology, so I asked him to come over and have a look together, and then go to Luozhuang to have a look, and finally we'll call the police to deal with it, and ask for this thing to be really handed down from our ancestors." Baby, there will definitely be rewards from above! Even if there is no reward from above, I have expressed it here!"

Lu Jianren said at the right time: "No, you can ask me for it!"

Liangzi looked at the golden pancakes and was reluctant to part with them, but when he thought about it carefully, they were dug out from the ground, and it really wasn't worth going to jail for selling them.

Lao Qi would never lie to him, so he patted his thigh: "That's fine, just do as you say!"

Lu Dong immediately took out his mobile phone, called Ma Ming, and told him to come over quickly, and he needed his help.

While waiting for Ma Ming to come over, Lu Dong and Lu Jianren took Liangzi to Lu's hot pot for lunch, and then visited Lu Dong's company. Seeing the boss of such a big company as Lu Dong, Liangzi felt relieved.

Such a golden pancake can cost tens of thousands of dollars at most. People are so rich that there is no need to worry about such a small thing.

Before half past one, Ma Ming drove over by taxi and entered Lu Dong's office. When he saw the golden pancakes, his eyes were straightened, he put on his gloves and looked carefully, and he was sure: "These probably belong to the golden pancakes of the Han Dynasty! "
