Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 10 Mr. Hao Wants Treasure?
It was getting dark.

There were still occasional cannon fires and faint shouts of killing outside.

"Long Live Lord," Wang Cheng'en came to the Hall of Martial Ying happily, "from Wang Zhixin, I found 10,000 taels of silver bills and 3000+ taels of silver each, more than [-] taels of gold, as well as many jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, land deeds, and house deeds."

As he spoke, Wang Chengen handed over a list that he had made.

Then he waved his hand again, and asked people to send the collected jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, bank notes, land deeds, house deeds, gold and silver into the hall.

Because Wang Chengen knew that Chongzhen was really short of money to the extreme and loved money to the extreme. If he didn't take the money he found from Wang Zhixin and give Chongzhen a look, he would definitely be worried.

Wang Chengen thought that Chongzhen would be happier seeing this.

Or get angry, scolding Wang Zhixin for being so greedy.

Unexpectedly, Chongzhen frowned, and only glanced at the many treasures brought in, without looking at them, he waved his hand and said, "Go down. Pay attention to check the defense situation in the palace."

Wang Chengen didn't dare to ask any more questions, and retreated after answering.

When he came outside the hall, he summoned an eunuch guarding the gate and asked, "What happened when our family was doing business?"

"Responding to godfather, nothing happened. Lord Long Live has always been in the Hall of Martial Arts, and only Li Ruolian came to report the situation of Luo's family raids. He said that only less than 10 taels of silver notes and gold and silver were confiscated."

The eunuch guarding the gate was Wang Chengen's godson, so he told him everything he knew.

Wang Chengen was even more puzzled after hearing this, and thought to himself: Could it be that Long Live Lord is not happy because he got too little money from Luo's mansion?Can't it?

In the Hall of Martial Arts.

Chongzhen fiddled with a box of jewels in front of him, looked around, and said, "Why hasn't Auntie come back? Could something really happen?"

···
"Hmm~"

Auntie Zhu who was lying on the bed groaned and opened her eyes.

But I saw a huge "night pearl" on the roof, which was extremely dazzling.

'Having such a big and beautiful Ye Mingzhu, Mr. Hao actually said that he is an ordinary person?Must have lied to me. '

With this thought in her mind, she turned her head and saw Hao Guangming dozing off on the armchair.

When she saw the outside of the house again, it was already dark, and she sat up in a jerk.

As she got out of bed, she shouted, "Mr. Hao? Mr. Hao?"

Hao Guangming woke up when he heard the sound, and when he saw Auntie Zhu getting out of bed, he asked, "Have you slept well?"

Auntie Zhu didn't answer, but instead asked, "How long have I been asleep?"

Hao Guangming checked the time on his phone and saw that it was only past six o'clock, so he said, "It's not long, maybe three or four hours."

"Three or four hours?!" Auntie Zhu's beautiful eyes widened when she heard this, "Why didn't you wake me up after I slept for so long?"

Only then did Hao Guangming realize that the time units mentioned by the two were different, and said with a smile, "It's three or four hours, less than two hours."

Aimee Zhu was not in the mood to explore the question of time, and said: "I don't know what's going on with the emperor, I want to go back and have a look."

Seeing that Auntie Zhu was about to "hit the wall" and leave, Hao Guangming quickly stopped her and asked, "How is your recovery? If you haven't recovered well, it's better not to cross indiscriminately."

Auntie Zhu felt that her body was completely normal, and said, "I'm fine."

"Here's the phone, contact me if you need anything." Hao Guangming put the fully charged phone into Aimee Zhu's hand.

Touching Hao Guangming's warm big hand, Auntie Zhu's pretty face blushed slightly, she grabbed the phone tightly, and slammed it into the west wall, disappearing.

Hao Guangming looked at the empty old house, his stomach growled, and he felt hungry.

'I have to go back to the village for dinner. '

Thinking so, Hao Guangming sent a video invitation to Auntie Zhu.

Soon the video was connected, and Aimee Zhu and Chongzhen appeared together in the video.

It's just that it's a little dim over there, and the expressions of the two of them are not so clear.

But Hao Guangming still noticed that Chongzhen's expression was filled with amazement.

"What's the matter, Mr. Hao?" Aimee Zhu asked.

"I'm going to have dinner in a while. I won't be here for about half an hour, and I won't receive your message. You'd better not come over." Hao Guangming said.

Although Grandpa's old house is in the bamboo forest outside the village, no one usually comes here, but just in case, Hao Guangming still ordered it.

"En." Auntie Zhu nodded in agreement.

Hao Guangming thought for a while and asked, "Is there anything new about you?"

In the video, Auntie Zhu looks directly at Chongzhen.

Chongzhen withdrew his visiting gaze and said, "I have captured Luo Yangxing and Wang Zhixin, and confiscated several 10 taels of silver and some other property from them."

At this moment, Aimee Zhu cooperated with Chongzhen's words, and pointed the camera of the mobile phone at several boxes of jewelry, antiques, and gold on the ground.

As for cash and bank notes, Chongzhen had already had people use them to motivate the defenders.

Hao Guangming had never seen so many treasures before, and he squinted his eyes.

Because Hao Guangming's side was well illuminated, both Chongzhen and Zhu Wei noticed the change in Hao Guangming's expression.

Chongzhen's heart moved, and he smiled and said: "Mr. Hao has helped me a lot, why don't you pick a few of these treasures and let Aimee take them there later."

"Why is this so embarrassing?" Hao Guangming subconsciously refused.

But the attitude is obviously not firm.

As a poor batch with less than 2 yuan in deposits, these treasures are indeed very attractive to him.

Perhaps because he regards Hao Guangming as an outsider and a fairy, Chongzhen became more understanding of human nature and worldliness when facing Hao Guangming.

Seeing that Hao Guangming's attitude was not firm, Chongzhen smiled and said, "There's nothing to be ashamed of. Mr. Hao is willing to give Aimee such treasures as mobile phones. What's the point of taking a few treasures from me?"

After hearing this, Hao Guangming thought the same thing.

Although the mobile phone he gave to Aimee Zhu is only worth one or two thousand yuan here, it is a priceless treasure in Daming.

So he said: "Then you can pick some jade articles for me."

Hao Guangming wanted the treasure not for collection, but for exchanging it for money.

In his opinion, jade articles are better exchanged for money than antiques and gold, and are also safer.

After finishing the video call, Hao Guangming locked the doors and courtyard of the old house and went back to the village.

Wollongong is a rather large natural village below Yangji Village in Xihe Town, with more than 100 households.

It is located among the mountains, but the mountains are relatively short, not steep, and belong to the hilly area.

The house in the bamboo forest was built by Grandpa Hao Guangming after contracting the bamboo forest. His old house is at the west end of the village, only half a mile away from the bamboo forest.

Hao Guangming's parents both passed away in an accident in his early years, so he grew up with his grandfather.

As for grandma, Hao Guangming passed away when he was a child.

Now that his grandfather is gone, Hao Guangming is considered a lonely family.

However, there are still some relatives with the same surname and clan in the village, and the relationship between neighbors and right neighbors is fine.

Hao Guangming returned to the village the day before yesterday and found it troublesome to start a fire alone, so he simply bought a few generations of rice and some ingredients, sent them to Uncle Ma's next door, and ate at his house.

Uncle Ma and his wife are both in their 50s, their son and daughter-in-law are working in other provinces, their daughter is married to the county town, and a granddaughter is studying in a boarding middle school in the county town.

The couple are in pretty good health. They not only planted several fields, but also contracted a mountain to grow fruit trees.

In his spare time, Uncle Ma also fishes, shrimps, eels and crabs in the fields, and hunts wild rabbits in the mountains, enriching his own food and selling them for a few dollars.

Hao Guangming walked into Ma's yard just as Aunt Hong came out of the kitchen.

Seeing Hao Guangming, he smiled and said, "Guangming is back? I'm about to ask your Uncle Ma to call you for dinner."

"I forgot the time to clean up my grandfather's things." Hao Guangming explained casually, and then helped bring the bowls and chopsticks to the table without seeing anyone.

During dinner, Uncle Ma asked, "Guangming, your grandfather's funeral is over, what are your plans for the future?"

Hao Guangming originally wanted to live in the village for a while before leaving.

Now that I have an adventure, I will naturally not leave.

So he said: "I am going to start a business in the village."

"Starting a business in the village?" Uncle Ma was surprised. "We have nothing but fruit growing here. What are you doing to start a business?"

Hao Guangming smiled and said, "I haven't figured it out yet, but it should be based on the Internet."

Although Uncle Ma is quite familiar with mobile phones, he really doesn't know much about the Internet, so he didn't ask any more questions after hearing Hao Guangming's words, and just said: "If you need your Uncle Ma's help, just let me know, you are welcome. "

Hao Guangming smiled and nodded, "Uncle Ma."

After eating, Hao Guangming went back to the yard in the bamboo forest again after taking some things at home.
