After Ah Hu exited, Young Master Tang looked at Mr. Lu and said, "Mr. Lu, since you personally participated in the search for that batch of gold back then, do you still have any impressions of it?"
"To be honest, Mr. Tang also gave me a task to find this gold, but I don't have any information on hand, and all the investigation results from that year were lost. It just so happened that you experienced this personally.
, I wonder if you can give me some pointers?"
"Mr. Tang asked you to find gold? Well, you are very lucky, maybe you can actually find it!"
"I can't find the detailed investigation data from back then, but some key points are still in my mind. If I hadn't been able to get support from the superiors, I would have gone looking for it a long time ago!" said Mr. Lu.
Looking for something, especially when there is no specific scope, is a waste of time and money. If you find it, you will naturally make up for all the losses. But if you can't find it, someone has to take the blame. If I don't have everything, how can the superiors allocate a large amount of funds?
Give it to him?
Especially in the past few years, the country has always been very poor. In the past few years, the economy has begun to enter the fast lane, but the country has more places to spend money. Otherwise, the deputy director of the Beijing Museum would not
I actively plan to exchange a batch of collections with Mr. Tang, not to save some maintenance costs...
"The key point? Please give me some advice, Mr. Lu!" Young Master Tang said happily.
The tone is confusing, but naturally it is faster and more purposeful based on the predecessors!
"According to the information we have received before, the total weight of this gold should be between 300 and 400 tons!"
"The war lasted for eight years. The little devils controlled almost all the cities in East China. After several years of plundering, the early items had long been transported to Country R to fill the domestic economic crisis caused by the war!"
"Actually, to put it bluntly, this gold ended up in the hands of the Americans because country r has a small land area and insufficient resources. It can't even feed itself with the food it grows, and a large amount of materials must be imported, especially military supplies."
"Most of the money collected in the early stage was used to buy food and steel, and then it was turned into artillery again."
"The things that are collected in the mid-term are what really enrich the little devils, because at this time, they occupy a large part of China's land, and the coal, steel, grain, etc. they need can be collected on the spot in the occupied area!"
"In the later stages of the war, after the little devils bombed Pearl Harbor in the United States and dragged the United States into the water, in the European battlefield, Germany also changed from attacking to shrinking defense. Their senior officials had a hunch that the plan to occupy China might fail.
!”
"So in the later stage, they were like mad dogs, desperately starting to destroy and plunder. In short, before the war failed, they would take as much as they could and destroy as much as they could!"
When he said this, the old man's face became ugly...
He experienced many things personally back then. Although he was only a teenager at that time, there were some things that he would never forget until his death!
"So, these three to four hundred tons of gold, as well as the cultural relics we discovered this time, are actually the things that the little devil gathered when he went crazy in the later period?" said Young Master Tang.
"Yes, it's like this. During the eight-year war of resistance, at the beginning, the little devils held the idea of ruling China, and the damage was not too great. Later, they saw that we resisted too much and caused great losses to them.
, it started to get crazy, especially in the last year, those devils became even more aggressive, grabbing everything they saw!"
"It can be said that the losses caused to us in China in the last year of the eight-year war of resistance are almost comparable to those in the previous seven years!"
"The cultural relics you discovered, as well as the gold that Mr. Tang asked you to find, and the two-thousand-ton transport ship that overturned on Poyang Lake, were basically all collected in the last year.
Something!" Mr. Lu sighed.
"These little devils are so cruel..." Young Master Tang took a breath after hearing this...
The intensity of destruction in the last year was equal to that in the previous seven years. One can imagine what the people in the occupied areas experienced in the last year. Three to four hundred tons of gold were looted in one year. How many people would be killed?
How much land was lost...
"It's hate. In some places, ten rooms are empty, and people die of hunger everywhere. It's really not a joke!" said Mr. Lu.
"It's all over now. Fortunately, our country is now stronger than before!" Tang Dashao said.
While speaking, he couldn't help but secretly criticize the good and evil factions in the ancient warrior world. If they hadn't stirred up troubles in the ancient warrior world and fought to the death, allowing others to see that they could take advantage, they would have dared to be so blatant.
Call me?
"Well, forget it, let's not talk about this. People are still happy now. They are not lacking in both material and spiritual life!"
"We visited many places and checked a lot of data back then, and finally confirmed that these items should be near Nanjing City. Based on the Japs' branches at that time, we eliminated most of the areas and selected the three most likely ones.
Place!" Old Lu said.
When Young Master Tang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. The three most likely places?
Isn’t it what you want to find most?
"Which three are they?" Young Master Tang asked hurriedly.
"It was speculated that the first one would be in Nanjing City, because this place has been occupied for a long time. Nanjing City is very big, and it is very convenient to hide things. Hundreds of tons of gold, which sounds like a lot, but in fact the density of gold is very high.
It’s not much in terms of volume, so you can bury them anywhere you want!” said Mr. Lu.
"Mr. Lu, we have speculated on this possibility before, but it was later rejected. Now the city of Nanjing has been developed. Skyscrapers have been built in many places. The foundations alone can be dug more than ten meters, so it is basically excluded from the city.
Otherwise, they would have been dug out long ago!" Young Master Tang shook his head.
"Well, Nanjing city was not like this when we were looking for it. Now it seems that this possibility can indeed be ruled out!" said Mr. Lu.
"What about the second one?" Young Master Tang asked.
"The second one is the Qinglong Mountain Area we are going to tomorrow. This mountainous area can be either big or small. If you want to hide something, unless you are lucky, it is unlikely that you will find it."
"And since they have a premonition that they will be defeated and the things cannot be transported, they will definitely choose to hide them so that they can take them out later!"
"In fact, hiding it in the city is the best option. Afterwards, they only need to buy the location where the gold is hidden, and they can slowly take possession of the gold!"
"Qinglong Mountain is a good place to hide gold, but it is not convenient to take it out. Since there are many places to hide it, in general, it is a good place to hide it!" said Mr. Lu.
"So what about the third location?" Young Master Tang asked.
"The third location is the waters of the Yangtze River. However, placing it here is actually a lose-lose approach. If gold is poured into the Yangtze River, things sinking below will start to move slowly or be absorbed by the sand depending on the flow of water.
Buried!"
"Even if we confirm that the gold is hidden in the Yangtze River, and know the specific location where it sank, it will not be easy to salvage it. It will be difficult for us, and it will be even more difficult for the little devil!" said Mr. Lu.
"Yangtze River? We have also speculated like this before. Will it be difficult to dive and salvage?" Wucuo Novel Network did not skip words. Young Master Tang asked.
"Of course it is difficult. The Yangtze River is deep and the amount of sediment is not small. If it is really down there, after decades of sedimentation, all the gold may have been on the bottom of the bank, making salvage work even more difficult! Just determining the location is enough.
I don't know how much work it will take, because the gold will move with the water flow!" said Mr. Lu.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Lu, for clarifying my doubts!" Young Master Tang said.
In fact, if we are really under the Yangtze River, the salvage work may not be as difficult as Mr. Lu said.
First, find something. It shouldn't be too difficult for you. It's better than wandering around without a target.
Secondly, the technology of a few decades ago is not comparable to that of today. Salvage work may have been difficult with the previous technology, but it may not be that difficult with the current technical level. After all, technology is improving!
"Haha, why, are you really planning to go look for it in the Yangtze River?" Mr. Lu said with a smile.
"Let's try and see if we can find it. I've always been very lucky!" Young Master Tang said with a smile.
Mr. Lu couldn't help being speechless when he heard this. He had seen people boasting, but he had never seen someone as shameless as Mr. Tang. However, he was just lucky. As for the samurai swords of Country R, he also had several in his home. Why?
I can't see any treasure map...
Early the next morning, everyone had breakfast and started heading towards Qinglong Mountain.
With thirty or forty people setting off together, it would be a bit inconvenient to drive. Young Master Tang asked Guo Tao to rent a double-decker bus in advance, which could seat about forty people and add some equipment to make it just big enough.
The bus stopped after driving for more than an hour. The bus could not go into the mountains. It could only reach the tourist area at most. The rest of the way required them to walk and carry equipment!
However, fortunately, most of the people brought by Mr. Lu are in good physical strength, and with Young Master Tang and the others sharing some supplies, they are on their way!
There was a huge group of more than 40 people, carrying backpacks on their backs. It didn't feel like they were going to work, but rather it felt like they were out camping...
The mountain road was rugged and difficult to walk, so everyone naturally stopped and stopped along the way. By the time they reached Guojia Village, it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon.
Fortunately, Mr. Tang notified Boss Guo in advance, and the dishes had been prepared in advance, and the table used for the previous wedding was still in the open space.
"Mr. Lu, should we take a rest here today, or go directly into the mountains?" Young Master Tang asked.
"How long is it from here to the destination?" Mr. Lu asked.
"We'll walk on the mountain road for more than an hour and enter a place called Feiyun Valley. From there, we'll face the stream and go upstream. We'll walk for about half an hour and we'll be there!" Tang Dashao said.
