Chapter 438 The big vat smashing incident

"Stop! I said stop!"

"What are you doing! I'm from the Forestry Bureau! Who gave you the right to cut down trees indiscriminately!"

The workers were sweating profusely. They were worried and turned to look at me.

The person who called us to stop was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with dark skin, wearing ordinary short-sleeved and long trousers, but he was driving a public car.

It was just a few trees cut down. I didn’t expect that the local forestry bureau would come to find me. This was unexpected.

"Are you the leader?"

I said I was.

It is said that when walking in the world, you must first learn to watch the person's words and expressions. As soon as I see the person's aura and speech and behavior, I am sure that the person is a "little official" who runs errands. Don't be afraid of this kind of little official. The more you are afraid of the person, the more he will get on the nose and face.

Making a fuss with pigtails. .??.

I lit a cigarette without letting him smoke. I took out my phone and looked down at my address book.

"Hey! I'm talking to you! You can't hear me or something! Someone reported you for illegally cutting down trees! Cutting down trees without permission! You are breaking the law, you know!!"

"What's your name?" I looked up and asked him.

Seeing that I was calm and calm, Niubi Honghong asked his name, and the other person's expression was stunned.

I said expressionlessly: "That's right, I plan to transport these saplings to Suzhou to decorate the back garden. Chen Hongjun asked me to come here to cut them. He said he had already said hello, so they should be fine."

Chen Hongjun is the big boss of Dazhi Steel Factory. Dazhi Steel Factory is very famous locally. At that time, wearing the work clothes of Dazhi Steel Factory meant high salary and iron rice bowl in the local area, which meant having a car, a house and a wife. As for how I knew

I saw this person's story in the newspaper two days ago.

Next, the other party "invited" me into the car to talk.

After closing the car door, he smiled and spread the cigarette for me. I waved my hand and said that I had just finished smoking and would not smoke anymore.

"Brother, my tone was a little harsh just now. Don't mind. If I had known you were Boss Chen's friend, I wouldn't have come here! Now we in Huangshi want to develop the Xisai Mountain Scenic Area, so I shouted
The slogan is that green mountains and clear waters are the same as mountains of gold and silver, so we are very strict about cutting down trees. Someone reported it this morning, but I am just doing it as a routine matter, haha."

"Brother is so young and is doing business in Suzhou?"

"No way," I said with a smile, "My father retired two years ago, and he went to Suzhou to retire because of the good environment. He usually likes flowers and plants, so I thought about getting some wild ginkgo saplings to take back."

"Oh. That's it, brother," he stretched out his right hand: "My name is Song Qiang, and this is my business card. If brother is free in the evening, I will set up a table for the two of us to get to know each other."

I deliberately didn't shake his hand and said impatiently: "It depends on the time. I may not be free. Can I leave?"

"Brother, what you said is very different from me! Of course I can leave! I can leave at any time! In addition, you can cut down the trees on the mountain as you like! Pull as many as you want! It's okay! I will take care of you!"

My palms became sweaty when I sent away the Forestry Bureau person. Fortunately, there was no danger.

The space on the first floor of the place I rented was quite large. After placing the big jars, I went to the hardware store and bought a big hammer and a dozen thick woven bags.

Some people may say that you can tell whether there are gold bars or silver ingots in the jar by looking at the weight, and some may say that you can cut a slit from the bottom of the jar to see.

These are purely layman's terms, I won't explain much. Anyway, if you want to know whether there are gold bars and silver ingots, there is only one way.

Lock the door, close the windows, remove the nails, and unpack the wooden boxes.

The soil was scattered all over the floor, but I didn't pay attention to it. I just concentrated on cleaning it up in the end.

I wrapped the hammer with a cloth to reduce the noise. I looked at the exact position and swung it once!

The big money jar snapped! It broke into pieces! Because the force was too great, it fell apart

A lot of patinated copper coins.

I pulled off the broken jar skin and threw it aside, and took a closer look! I saw that there was a small jar as big as a human head hidden in about the middle of the lower half of Daqian Mountain!

This small jar is dark brown as a whole, unglazed, has a round mouth, a narrow belly, and tie ears on the left and right sides. This shape is a typical style of the late Southern Song Dynasty!

If you don’t break open the tank cover, you won’t even be able to see it with your clairvoyant eyes!

Next, I was very careful and used a screwdriver and a hammer to cut the big money mountain into two halves. In the process, a lot of copper coins were scattered. The scattering was unavoidable. I grabbed two handfuls and looked at them. I saw the earliest coins.

The latest five baht in Han Dynasty should be in the Xianchun period.

I got out a small jar, laid it flat on the ground, and smashed it with a hammer.

In an instant, a dozen palm-sized boat-shaped silver ingots fell out! They were as shiny as snowflakes! Also falling out was a piece of rotten paper that was oxidized to yellow.

Snowflake silver, twenty-five taels of snowflake silver! These boat-shaped silver ingots are very strange. They are of high quality and extremely pure. They are much better than the military pay silver at that time. The piece of paper should be a letter from that time. It is rotten now and most of the writing is on it.

I can't see it all, but I can still see part of it.

"In the autumn of the second year of Jingding, in Jiaxu, the beautiful Miao family gave birth to a prince. She was congratulated by virtue and was congratulated. She was sentenced to first-class imprisonment in the three capitals. I released her and gave the troops one thousand taels of mint."

It dawned on me.

It turned out to be a silver reward, but since it was a silver reward, it should have been distributed to the entire army. How could it be hidden in a small jar?

I frowned and secretly guessed the reason.

There are probably more than two hundred taels in this small jar. It is impossible for an ordinary Southern Song Dynasty officer and soldier to be rewarded so much. If one thousand taels is divided evenly, a person can get half a tael of silver even if he burns incense.

Do the math and it will become clear.

The ancient soldiers played on TV can easily take out a handful of broken silver from their arms to buy wine, which is fake.
According to records, the monthly military pay for ordinary soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty ranged from 400 to 600 fen, with a compromise of 500 fen.

Usually money is one thousand taels, and one thousand taels is one tael. So five hundred taels is only half a tael of wages.

In the Song Dynasty, 16 taels were equivalent to one pound, and half a tael was equivalent to 15 grams of broken silver. This amount of money was enough to have a drink once, or find a girl to have a good time.

There are more than two hundred taels here. It cannot be a reward distributed to someone. The only reasonable explanation I can think of is that this reward was embezzled by someone and was not distributed. This person secretly hid the money himself.

He got into this little jar. Anyway, this man is an unknown person in Lu Wende's army. He is really the sixth child.

When the silver ingots were first unearthed, they would oxidize and turn black if exposed to the air for a long time. If they were too dark, the selling price would be affected. I found a washbasin and filled a basin of water with it, and soaked a dozen silver ingots in the water to isolate them from the air.

Then I'm going to smash other tanks.

"who!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by a female voice.

"Hello, I am the landlord who rented the house to you. I heard that you moved a lot of big boxes in. I want to remind you to be careful not to scratch the wooden floor!"

"What are you doing? Can I come in and look at the floor?"

I shouted loudly: "It's inconvenient! I'm taking a shower! I'll be careful about the floor!"

At this moment, I cursed the intermediary in my heart! Because he told me before that the landlord was out of town! I would not be disturbed when I lived here!

"Taking a shower? The nozzle broke a long time ago. Why do you take a shower?"

I loudly said that the nozzles had been replaced this morning!

After waiting for a while, the landlady's voice disappeared outside the door. At this time, I still held the hammer tightly in my hand, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Who would have thought that the next second, I suddenly heard a Kata sound!

Then, the door handle began to slowly turn to the left.
