The Era of Hard Work

With those flickering eyes, like a ghost's upper body, Lu Jianren couldn't help but said: "The treasury is better, or the treasury! What's so good about the tomb, except the dead are bones."

I don't know if the entrance was opened, but suddenly there was a gust of cool wind blowing.

The wind stirred Li Wenyue's somewhat long hair, and he couldn't help moving closer to Lu Dong: "Uncle Qi, let's not talk about dead people and bones, okay?"

Can Lu Jianren care about this? Said: "Afraid of a ball, have you forgotten that when you were young, you and Dongzi retrieved the thigh bones from the girl's mountain, and fought with Zhang Wan's people?"

Having said this, Li Wenyue wiped his right hand on his clothes: "That's a pig bone, okay?"

Lu Dong interrupted Seventh Uncle's nonsense: "Okay, let's take a quick look, Third Grandpa and the others are still waiting for news up there."

Ma Ming said: "It doesn't have to be a treasury, who built such a big treasury, how much gold can it hold?"

Lu Jianren walked forward and said: "You all stay together, you can go wherever I go, don't separate, once separated, there is no righteousness like me, be careful to let the ghost lady arrest you and go to worship."

Li Wenyue felt helpless, this Uncle Seven, can you speak the truth?

Unexpectedly, Lu Tao in the back became a traitor: "Follow up, follow up, didn't you watch the show in the horror movie? It's whoever orders and whoever dies, and ghosts specialize in finding orders. We can't learn Crazy in the movies."

Ma Ming took a look at the ceiling, which was also made of bluestone, and found a place where engraved patterns and characters were carved, looked at it, and whispered to Lu Dong: "I guess, it may have been built in the late Ming or early Qing."

This is reasonable. Lu Dong personally feels that if the age is too recent, the exact information may be passed down, so that there is not even a message.

He and Ma Ming hurriedly followed, not for any other reason, because they were afraid that Uncle Qi's hands would itch and he would fumble around when he saw something.

Lu Jianren came to the stone gate on the right, took a look inside, and said, "Come quickly!"

Several people quickened their pace.

Lu Jianren knew that Li Wenyue was afraid of this, so he said to him: "Wen Yue, hurry up, there just happens to be a ghost wife to match you!"

Following Lu Dong, Li Wenyue was a little more courageous, and finally did not stop.

Lu Dong also arrived at the door and looked inside. Under the light of the flashlight, he could see six large tanks on one side of the stone house, and piles of sacks on the other side, but it was so old that the sacks and the like were all tattered.

On the wall facing the door, there is a string of wooden shelves, which are divided into three rows, on which are placed ceramic jars, plates, rice bowls and other things.

Lu Jianren ignored the two sides and walked towards the opposite side. Lu Dong hurriedly followed and reminded: "Uncle Qi, these are all left by the ancestors, don't move around."

"Am I the kind of person who doesn't care what's important?" Lu Jianren was reasonable at all times. He came to the wooden shelf and lightly touched the black wood with his hand: "It's quite strong, I don't know what material it's made of."

He looked at the things on the shelf again: "It's done! Blue and white! Blue and white porcelain!"

Lu Dong deliberately hit him: "The folk kilns are worthless."

Lu Jianren stretched out his hand, wanting to get the bowl, to see if there was money at the bottom of the bowl, finally resisted the itch in his heart, and asked, "Ma Ming, are the blue and white flowers worth money?"

Ma Ming replied seriously: "I haven't studied this, so I don't know."

In addition to plates and rice bowls, the bottom layer is some big porcelain jars. Lu Jianren touched Lu Dong: "Dongzi, let's make a bet, I guess it contains pickled vegetables!"

Lu Tao followed and asked curiously, "Why?"

"You're stupid!" Lu Jianren analyzed logically: "Look, the big tank over there is obviously filled with water. The sack on the other side should be filled with dry food and food. It's for storing things or for Tibetans. How uncomfortable is it to eat only dry food in here? Don’t prepare some pickles? Let you just eat corn buns, can you swallow it?”

Lu Tao retorted: "Maybe it's wine. Take a sip of wine and eat a mouthful of corn bread. I heard people say that Uncle Qi did it when you were young."

Lu Jianren ignored the latter sentence, and heard the wine in front. He stared at the mud seal of the big porcelain jar and said, "This is what Ma Ming said. How old is the wine in the late Ming Dynasty?"

Lu Tao shook his head: "I don't know."

Lu Dong said, "Uncle Qi, don't look at me, I don't know either."

"Anyway, it has been around for hundreds of years." Lu Jianren felt itchy again: "If I can take a sip..."

Lu Dong reminded: "If there is wine, it will be gone. Even if there is, it will become poison here."

After all, Lu Jianren didn't touch the big porcelain jar.

Ma Ming looked at them next to each other and said, "Uncle Qi is right, this is where water and dry food are stored."

He turned on the flashlight and took the lead to go to the other room opposite.

Lu Jianren followed immediately, and as soon as he reached the door, he said, "Treasure box!"

Lu Tao and Li Wenyue followed suit.

Lu Dong was at the back, pressed the intercom, and told the above about the situation, asking him to wait patiently for a while.

In this stone house, there is a simple wooden bed with some rotten and invisible rags on it, which may be bedding.

The bed is simple in shape and supported by wood, a bit like the bed Lu Dong slept in when he was in his hometown.

There is a rotten wooden barrel at the end of the bed, could it be a toilet?

In contrast, the black wooden boxes on the other side looked very solid.

There are carvings on several wooden boxes. Ma Ming looked at them with a flashlight and said, "The style of the late Ming Dynasty."

Lu Dong went over, took a closer look, and brushed off the dust with his hands. Non-professionals could not feel anything except that the wood of the box was very hard.

"Can you open it?" Lu Tao asked.

The box has ventilation holes, so there is no problem of sealing or not, and it is not locked. Ma Ming nodded slightly, gently grasped the copper buckle, and slowly opened the box cover, revealing a box full of...books.

Lu Tao couldn't help being disappointed.

Li Wen looked more curiously.

Lu Dong resisted the desire to pick up the book and read it.

Uncle Qi frowned: "Hey..."

Ma Ming said: "Don't touch them, these books are too old, they may be broken into pieces if you touch them."

Li Wenyue recognized the traditional characters on the cover: "It's the account book."

Ma Ming closed the box with the gentlest movement.

Then I opened another box, which contained books such as the Four Books and Five Classics that were common in ancient times.

Several boxes are full of books.

The last is a small flat box with only two books in it.

Lu Dong, Lu Tao, and Lu Jianren didn't bother to look any further, so Ma Ming and Li Wenyue were there.

Li Wenyue was a little excited: "We have the genealogy of Lu's village! Both the Lu family and the Li family have it!"

Lu Dong said, "It's still useful."

Everyone in the village knows that the Li family moved to Lujia Village later, but there is no clear statement about which generation moved here.

But Lu Jianren stared at the box where the account book was placed, and said: "Our ancestors are so powerful. When we hid below, we didn't forget to bring the account book down. This is to avoid the chaos of war and continue to collect accounts?"

The walkie-talkie rang at this moment, and someone could vaguely hear someone talking at the lower entrance. Lu Dong put it to his ear and listened to it, making the people above calm down.

I didn't talk about the discovery of the family tree below for the time being, but I will talk about it. A bunch of people who came down rumbling down might all be smashed to pieces.

After reading this house, go to the house with the largest door at the end.

This time Lu Dong walked in front, went to the door and looked inside with a flashlight. There were still beds, rotten wooden barrels and boxes. The beds were similar to the previous ones, but there were more wooden boxes.

When Lu Jianren saw it, his interest became even lower: "Could it be something hidden by the two scholars?"

He enthusiastically took the lead to hunt for treasures, and all he found were books. If he had known this, he might as well have gone and caught that weasel on the old street.

Lu Dong went in, stood by the box, and looked at Ma Ming. This kind of thing needs to be done by professionals.

Ma Mingna used a small brush to brush the soil one by one in a gentle and slow motion.

Like the previous few times, when they slowly opened the box, Lu Tao and Lu Jianren lost interest and were looking at the stone instead.

Lu Dong saw it clearly and said, "It's really a treasure chest! It's full of money!"

Lu Jianren and Lu Tao hurried over, stretched out their heads and looked inside.

But no, the box is full of money, a box full of copper coins, judging from the layout, it should be strung with ropes, but the ropes are rotten, and the copper coins are more or less rusty.

Ma Ming looked at the second box, it was still a box of copper coins, and the rest of the boxes were mostly copper coins.

The last two boxes finally have a surprise.

Finally saw gold and silver.

"This is a silver ingot?" Lu Tao looked at the few things in the box: "Is it?"

Ma Ming said: "The 10 taels of boat-shaped silver from the Ming Dynasty seem to be of a uniform standard in the box, and there are also money from Jinan Prefecture on it..."

Lu Jianren counted, there were more than sixty, and he shook his head: "Look, I'm right, the ancestors of our Lu family village were rich!"

Lu Tao poked him: "Seventh Uncle, one more!"

"Yes! Put the most valuable ones last!" Lu Jianren stared at the last box: "It must be gold!"

Li Wenyue said, "Uncle Qi, it's not that our village has no money."

Lu Jianren said with a straight face: "It's not about money or not!"

He waved his hand: "Do you know why your seventh uncle is jumping up and down all day long? Because what you enjoy is the process of adventure and treasure hunting, not whether it's worth it or not!"

Ma Ming was already used to Uncle Qi, so he ignored him, looked at Lu Dong, and slowly opened the last box.

Everyone held their breath.

Lu Jianren said again: "Our ancestors are really rich!"

The things in the box, most of the box, are gold and silver jewelry, bracelets, hairpins and decorations, the largest of which is in the shape of a mythical beast, very similar to the one squatting on the roof of the old columbarium.

But it's too small, only half the size of a palm.

Some bracelet hairpins are also inlaid with red and blue stones.

For the time being, no one moved, they all stared blankly.

After a long time, Lu Jianren nodded: "I understand! I understand!"

Lu Dong asked, "Uncle Qi, what do you understand?"

Lu Jianren said: "Our ancestors definitely did business without money!"

He pointed to the silver box: "There are official silver, copper coins, gold and silver jewelry, and our ancestors have never had a millionaire..."

Don't say it, it makes sense.

"Okay." After enjoying the process of treasure hunting, Uncle Qi said, "I'll go up and report the situation."

Lu Dong asked Ma Ming, "Let's take another look."

Ma Ming said, "I'll look around again."

Lu Jianren was impatient: "Let's go up first."

Ma Ming warned: "Don't let anyone come down."

"Understood." Lu Jianren waved his hand, and Lu Tao went to the entrance.

Lu Dong and Li Wenyue followed Ma Ming to look around.

Ma Ming mainly looked at the carved lines on the stone, as well as the places where the characters were engraved, and determined that this was built in the late Ming Dynasty.

Lu Dong thinks about it too. The famous troubled times at the end of the Ming Dynasty were a mess. Who in a normal family is not afraid of soldiers and bandits?

Maybe the people in Lujia Village have really done business without capital.

After all, Lujia Village has always belonged to the tough folk style, and before the liberation, he even hated Wang Lianzhong, the number one bandit in Qingzhao.

After watching for a while, there was nothing new to discover, and the three of them went out one after another.

The outside news is still in the school for the time being, Lu Zhenlin didn't let people go out and talk nonsense, because how to deal with it is a problem.
