Chu Daya is really a sensible child and very smart.
After getting along for two or three days, the strange feeling when they first met disappeared. The two of them really shared the housework together like a family, and they had a good understanding.
When getting along with her, Jia Zhengjin always thinks of his children involuntarily.
Therefore, on the one hand, he takes care of her as Niu Shun, and on the other hand, as an elder, he treats her as his own child.
Chu Daya has a strong learning ability. She can quickly master the housework taught by Jia Zhengjin, and then learns many words and sentences from Wang Xu every day.
If you are not a girl, you can really try to get a career, maybe you will be successful.
On the other side, on the fourth day, the villagers finally stopped going up the mountain together.
Although I really want to see the gods and look forward to some adventures that will change my life. But after all, I need to support my family, so I can't put down my work without restrictions and wander around the mountains every day just to see the gods.
Especially after three days in a row, I felt that it was not easy for gods to come out, and it seemed that we had to be more realistic.
Live a good life first before thinking about other things.
Without the villagers following them, Niu Shun and Niu Xi, transformed by Jia Zhengjin, finally got rid of the difficulties and didn't have to worry so much.
Regarding the issue of firewood, Jia Zhengjin had secretly lied to him before, saying that he often chopped firewood in this area and would sometimes prepare firewood a day in advance. Especially when the treasure problem arose, he would prepare it in advance every day.
Niu Xi did not doubt it. After all, when he was cutting firewood in the past two days, the other party would indeed leave some extra and bundle it around so that he could take it away directly the next day.
Since they had firewood prepared in advance and no villagers continued to follow them, the two immediately rushed to the maze and continued to explore inside.
The design of the maze is originally to delay time. Otherwise, how good would it be to just put all the treasures in one space and get them after entering?
The two of them cooperated and easily followed the correct path according to the marks they had made before, and quickly reached the entrance of the next day.
Then enter it and explore together carefully.
Still using Niu Xi’s method, placing markers along the way.
But I didn’t use the arrow this time. After all, I don’t know when this thing will be used. It would be a tragedy if there is no arrow when it is needed!
So they changed the arrow marks to small stones and made preparations before coming in. Both of them carried a large bag of stones they had picked up.
After hard work, I finally successfully passed the second level and reached the end.
At the end of the second floor of the maze, there is of course a treasure chest.
However, this time there was only one box. After counting, it was worth 00 taels of silver.
In other words, according to the previous agreement, each person received 100 taels.
100 taels of silver here is already a lot of money! Some people can't save enough money in their lifetime. You can buy a lot of things with it.
Compared with the previous box of copper coins, although the area and quantity are smaller, the value of 100 taels of silver is higher.
Jia Zhengjin's transformed "Niu Shun" and Niu Xi each took 100 taels of silver, took them all the way down the mountain in a donkey cart, and hid them among the firewood.
Niu Xi can't take out the money at will yet, let alone his father Niu Bao, so Jia Zhengjin proposed to sign another agreement and store all the money in the secret room under his bed.
However, every time a maze is passed, the number of treasures obtained is calculated in detail, and Niu Xi indeed agrees that each person will get half of it, which is exactly the same.
After returning from the maze, Niu Xi, who suddenly had a hundred taels of silver, could not hide his excitement, but he was also slightly worried: "Shunzi, is it really okay for the child whose parents died to live in your house? Where you hide the treasure,
Will he be discovered?"
In this village, no one except Jia Zhengjin knows that Chu Daya is a girl.
Because she appears in men's clothing and because of her skin color, most people really wouldn't think of this.
Jia Zhengjin understood Niu Xi's worry, but in fact he didn't care very much, so he replied calmly: "Don't worry! Didn't you and I put that bed together? How heavy is it? Have you forgotten? We both need such a big bed.
Only strength and cooperation can open it. With the child's thin body, it is impossible for one person to do it! Besides, I made the bed very natural and close to the ground, so no one will doubt it."
"Oh! This is better." Niu Xi breathed a sigh of relief and thought for a moment, "But the appearance of that child will increase a lot of variables. Is it really okay?"
"That was entrusted to my father's best friend when she was dying. I can only take good care of her. But you can put your heart back in your stomach. First of all, the secrets of the treasure and the maze will never be known to a third person. Secondly, although I keep her
She was dropped off, but she was sent to Wang Xu to study and read, and she had to be picked up before she could come back. In short, she would not let her know about this during this period. When all the treasures were obtained, the follow-up arrangements for leaving the village were made, and she would look for opportunities when she left.
Explain to her that the child is very obedient, and the only one she can rely on now is me, and I will definitely try my best to cooperate."
"Well! Anyway, as long as you have an idea, it's fine. I'm worried, but I still have to look at you." Niu Xi said, "We have to make sure everything is foolproof!"
"Know!"
The two hid the silver in the pile of firewood, placed it on the donkey cart, and quickly went down the mountain before dark, so they had to go home and put it away first.
Jia Zhengjin was not idle on the way: "Xizi, have your friends come here in the past two days?"
"Of course!" Niu Xi nodded, "It's Hou Li and a few other brothers anyway."
After hearing this, Jia Zhengjin felt that Hou Li was even more suspicious.
If Yue Lang hadn't changed, why would he have been around Niu Xi? He made it clear that he wanted to win the bet.
Fortunately, I had the foresight to take Niu Xi with me early, so it was impossible for anyone to interfere.
Since the possibility of Hou Li is so high, should we find some time to secretly observe it?
Or should we save time and devote ourselves to gambling.
Anyway, my biggest wish is to successfully win the bet.
"Don't worry! Even if I'm the best brother, I won't let it slip. This is a secret that belongs to you and me. It can't be known by a third person through my mouth!" Niu Xi vowed, "I
No problem at all.”
"Well! In short, you and I have to keep this in mind. Unless we firmly hold all the treasures in our hands and make others believe in the origins of the treasures, we must not reveal it to anyone." Jia Zhengjin nodded, "This is related to
You, me and the treasure, everything that changes our destiny, cannot slip through our fingers!"
"I know very well in my heart! But you have to be careful. The kid who came to seek refuge really needs to be dealt with properly. Children especially have poor control skills. If they know the truth and talk about it everywhere, it will be quite lively!"
"We are both the same, we have to be cautious." Jia Zhengjin said, "Persevere until the day we come back, and we will truly become rich." (To be continued)
