Chapter 14 Archaeology

"Stop it all!"

Just when the battle was about to break out, a majestic shout suddenly came from behind the crowd.

Everyone looked sideways and saw a middle-aged man and woman walking hand in hand. It was Director Qiao and his wife.

Upon seeing this, Sun Chongguang hurried forward to greet him and said hello with a smile.

"Bureau Qiao, Mrs. Qiao, why are you here?"

His father, Mr. Sun, was an old acquaintance of the other party. He and Director Qiao had also met several times. Naturally, they greeted each other with smiles and even thought that the other party was here to help him solve the trouble here.

Then he said.

"Don't worry, Director Qiao. I can handle this little matter myself. They are just a bunch of unruly people..."

Before he finished speaking, Director Qiao stretched out his hand to signal the other party to shut up and said with a cold face.

"Sun Chongguang, I heard that you are going to demolish this place. Why don't I remember that there is a document from above that demolishes this area? Who gave you the power?"

Sun Chongguang was slightly startled. He did not expect that the other party would have such an attitude. After glancing around, he took a step forward and wanted to speak clearly in the other party's ear.

But he never expected that his hot face would touch his cold ass, and Director Qiao would frown and push him away.

Under normal circumstances, he would naturally help the Sun family, but now that Zhang Yuan appeared, not to mention that his wife was very fond of that boy, he himself was definitely not a thing in the pool.

He believed that given time, Zhang Yuan would definitely jump over the dragon gate and be more powerful than the Sun family, so he would never offend Zhang Yuan because of the Sun family.

So he said to Sun Chongguang without any mercy.

"If you have anything to say, just say it and don't get so close."

The latter suddenly looked embarrassed, and felt even more ashamed and angry.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan stepped forward to reveal the truth.

"Director Qiao, I know why they demolished this place."

Everyone looked sideways after hearing this. They actually didn't understand why the Sun family was so obsessed with this little orphanage.

Gong Guangyao and Sun Chongguang, the only ones present who knew anything about it, showed disdain. In their opinion, Zhang Yuan, a rotten guy like him, might know their plan.

"Oh? Then tell me, what are they for?"

Director Qiao took advantage of the situation and asked.

Zhang Yuan pointed to the ground and said.

"Because there is an ancient tomb below!"

These words were like a bomb, making everyone present stunned. Even the two insiders changed their colors.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan became more convinced that his guess was correct, so he continued.

"If nothing else, President Sun should have asked Gong Guangyao to inspect this place a few years ago and confirmed that there are ancient tombs here."

"Then they thought of using demolition as a cover to cover up the development, secretly develop it, and take the ancient tombs below and the funerary objects inside as their own!"

Hearing that his plan was revealed, Sun Chongguang turned his head and glared at Gong Guangyao. In his opinion, the plan must have been leaked by someone outside the Sun family.

When the latter saw this, he waved his hands frantically and clarified.

"I never told him this!"

When Director Qiao heard this, his face turned pale. You must know that this kind of behavior is embezzling national cultural relics, which is illegal, and the other party even used it under the guise of demolition.

It was clear that he was dragging him into the water as the director of the Bureau of Land Management, or that he was not giving any benefits at all.

He was immediately furious and asked Sun Chongguang in a cold tone.

"Is this really such a thing?"

Sun Chongguang immediately lowered his head slightly and said with twinkling eyes.

"How is that possible? Don't listen to that kid's nonsense."

When Zhang Yuan heard this, he immediately said directly.

"If nothing else, the ancient tomb should be in the back mountain. We can call people from the Archeology Bureau to come and take a look now. But my mother's tomb is also in the back mountain, so let them be careful."

Director Qiao didn't waste any time. He glanced at Sun Chongguang coldly and then dialed the number of the Archaeological Bureau directly.

As soon as they heard that they might have discovered an ancient tomb, people from the Archaeological Bureau immediately rushed over with all their instruments.

The survey work started half an hour later.

Sun Chongguang and Gong Guangyao on the side were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, but there was no way they could bribe the people from the Archaeological Bureau.

I can only pray silently in my heart not to be detected.

Zhang Yuan saw the state of the two of them and felt happy in his heart. This can be regarded as evil being rewarded.

Soon there was news. Professor Chang Yongchang, who led the team from the Archaeological Bureau, strode over with a head of white hair and an expression of ecstasy and said to Director Qiao.

"There is a result. There really is an ancient tomb down here!"

The latter also looked happy when he heard this, which was also a good thing for him, and then hurriedly pulled Zhang Yuan over to introduce him.

"Professor Chang, this is the discoverer of this ancient tomb. Speaking of which, his work is somewhat related to your work. He is a master of antique appraisal."

Zhang Yuan scratched his head in embarrassment. Although he now has very good antique appraisal skills, to put it bluntly, he is an antique dealer. He is really deserved to be promoted as an antique appraiser.

Professor Chang couldn't wait to ask after hearing this.

"So it was you who discovered it. How did you determine that the location of the ancient tomb is around the tomb in the back mountain?"

Zhang Yuan did not hide anything and directly revealed his series of inferences.

After Professor Chang heard this, he couldn't help but marvel. Although he could have deduced it, the other person was a young man in his early twenties.

So he couldn't help but hold Zhang Yuan's hand and said excitedly.

"The mind is delicate and the logic is rigorous. It can be said that he is a young man."

Zhang Yuan scratched his head in embarrassment and said.

"Professor Chang, I have a request."

"Whatever the request is, just say it."

"There is a tomb in the back mountain that belongs to my mother. Can you please not disturb her when you are developing the ancient tomb?"

To be honest, Zhang Yuan was a little unsure about this request. After all, to others, his mother was just an unknown person, and what was to be developed was an ancient tomb with historical value.

Anyone can tell which end is lighter and which is heavier.

But what he didn't expect was that Professor Chang directly slapped his chest and said without thinking.

"Don't worry, we will definitely not touch your mother's grave."

When Zhang Yuan heard this, he immediately felt happy and hurriedly thanked him.

"thanks, thanks."

Professor Chang said with a smile.

"You're welcome, after all, if it weren't for you..."

After saying this, he glanced at Sun Chongguang and others not far away and continued.

"The precious cultural relics here have all fallen into the hands of people with ulterior motives."

Only then did Director Qiao realize that they were still there, so he immediately scolded them.

"What are you still looking at here? Come back quickly!"

Sun Chongguang looked unwilling, looked deeply at Zhang Yuan, and left dejectedly.
