Chapter 676 Exiting the Cave

Cao Weidong watched silently.

"Sure enough, they are still a gang."

He muttered something under his breath.

Then he asked Xiaoxue to follow Li Laosan into the yard.

After hearing the knock on the door, several people walked out of the room one after another and stood in the yard warily.

Seeing that it was Li Laosan who was back, he also relaxed.

Li Laosan greeted them with a smile and then walked straight into the room.

There was a fire burning in the room and it was warm.

Against the backdrop of the firelight, a burly man, about two meters tall, wearing a military green coat, was guarding the stove and drinking.

There are also pork head meat, peanuts and other snacks on the table.

After seeing Li Laosan, he frowned and asked, his voice buzzing.

"Li Laosan, didn't I ask you to keep an eye on me in the courtyard? Why are you back?"

"Brother, our plan was successful, and there was an unexpected harvest." Li Laosan said impatiently.

"what's the plan?"

"It's so scary to pretend to be cunning."

Li Laosan told a story about how he made up a scary story and secretly tampered with the ladder, causing injuries to the workers.

He then mentioned that workers no longer dared to come to the backyard for construction, and the owner also planned to build a wall to completely seal the backyard.

Finally, he added.

"Boss, after the wall is built, we can start searching freely and we won't have to be so sneaky anymore."

The boss in the military green coat's eyes lit up and he laughed.

"Yes, when we find that thing, you will have a share of the credit."

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss."

There was a look of yearning on Li Laosan's face.

The boss thought about it and couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, that's great. If no one bothered us, we would have found that thing long ago and it wouldn't have been delayed until now."

"Okay, you can go back and notify me after the wall is built. Then we will take action at night and try to find that thing."

Li Laosan turned around and left the room.

Xiaoxue squinted at Li Laosan and planned to follow him out.

Cao Weidong thought for a while and let Xiaoxue stay in the room, intending to see what these people would do next.

Xiaoxue meowed, quickly jumped onto the cabinet, then lay down lazily, looking at everyone in the room awkwardly.

These people were completely unaware of Xiaoxue's existence.

After they closed the door, they started drinking again.

"Boss, it was inconvenient for us to move when the old man was here before. Now it's better. No one will bother us, so we can show off our skills."

"Yes, as long as we find that thing, we will make a fortune."

"This is all the credit of the boss. Boss, I'd like to toast you."

"I'd like to toast you too..."

"..."

Xiaoxue stayed for more than half an hour.

But these people just drank and bragged, and didn't tell any useful information.

So Cao Weidong asked Xiaoxue to stop monitoring and come back first.

"Actually, we have gained a lot this time. I am sure these people are just pretending."

"There are two other gains."

Cao Weidong thought silently.

"First, these people should have started taking action a long time ago. I remember Mr. Wang He told me that he could occasionally hear strange noises... maybe this was the noise made by those people looking for something.

.”

"Second, although I don't know what they are looking for, it should be of high value and hidden in the yard..."

"Hiding in the yard..."

Cao Weidong's heart moved.

"Mr. Wang He probably doesn't know about this either. I heard from him that this courtyard house used to be the prince's residence. Maybe it was hidden at that time. And even if it wasn't, the courtyard house has changed hands several times over the years, and the original owner must be gone.

, so this is something without an owner.”

"I have already bought the courtyard house, so this thing is mine."

"But I don't know what it is yet, so I still need to wait patiently..."

After Cao Weidong figured out all these things, he felt relieved, as if a big stone had been dropped.

.......

The next day.

Cao Weidong stretched, washed and brushed his teeth quickly, changed his clothes, then went out and had breakfast on the roadside.

As usual, he first went to Shouzhengtang to handle matters.

Now that shops and stalls have been opened in Sijiucheng and surrounding counties and cities one after another, and the stalls have become bigger, there are more things to worry about.

But what worries Cao Weidong is that the door-to-door delivery service mentioned before has been officially launched, allowing more people to get Sanxian Oral Liquid quickly and conveniently.

"Is this considered the Internet of Things in the 1980s?"

Cao Weidong thought with a strange expression.

In addition, because supply and demand form a benign relationship, it completely eliminates the space for scalpers to survive and solves this problem.

After quickly arranging the things to be handled, Cao Weidong came to the courtyard again, walked straight in, and saw Zhao Jinzhu arranging workers to build the wall.

When Zhao Jinzhu saw Cao Weidong, he immediately came over and reported.

"We first sealed the courtyard door with wooden boards. The bricks I ordered have arrived in the past few days. We will then use the bricks to build a wall at the courtyard door, align it with the surrounding walls, and put the putty again...

..."

Cao Weidong nodded on his face, but he was complaining crazily in his heart, feeling that this was equivalent to cutting off the backyard out of thin air.

This is a forty-nine city where every inch of land is precious.

What kind of family dares to do this?

But this is just a temporary measure to lure the snake out of its hole. After catching the big fish, just break open the sealed courtyard door.

Cao Weidong controlled the expression on his face, pretended to be relieved, and said: "Okay, just look at the arrangement. I must seal it. It's best to seal all the unclean things inside...

.”

Zhao Jinzhu responded and continued to direct the workers to work.

Soon, the courtyard door was completely sealed. Cao Weidong walked over and checked it, and was very satisfied.

"Not bad, it's very strong. That's it. Once you finish the design again, we'll continue with the decoration."

Zhao Jinzhu looked bitter and said.

"Okay, I'll speed up."

.......

It was night, and several dark shadows touched the edge of the courtyard. They cooperated with each other and quickly crossed the wall.

Li Laosan is waiting in the backyard.

After the backyard was sealed, Cao Weidong changed rooms for workers like Li Laosan because they still needed to be renovated.

At this time, Li Laosan slipped out of the dormitory on the pretext of peeing.

The simple wooden planks and low walls here couldn't stop him at all, so he stepped on the tall objects and jumped over.

Seeing the large troops coming, Li Laosan immediately went up to greet them.

"Boss, you are here. This is the shovel I prepared in advance."

"Well, very good. Besides you, who else is in the courtyard?"

"There are also a few construction workers. I bought some wine today. They are drinking and don't care about us."

Li Laosan promised swornly.

The boss felt relieved, took the shovel, distributed it to his companions, and then said.

"Then let's get started. We've already checked it out in advance, but we haven't found anything in the yard. Let's dig around to see if there's a cellar or something like that."

The companions around him responded and immediately took action.

At the same time, in the darkness, a pair of eyes were watching here quietly, watching their every move.
