Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!
Chapter 451 Half of the treasury!
It has to be said that although the sixth prince was abandoned in the palace and was not liked by the emperor, it was more convenient for him to do things. Over the years, he has gathered many capable and righteous people around him.
Almost as soon as he got the news about the treasure, he started to mobilize manpower. Before entering the mountain, we gathered a few people who looked like craftsmen, and they came in handy now.
It was obviously a mountain wall that didn't look strange in the eyes of ordinary people. It only took them half an hour to find a flaw. After prying off a stone, an iron ring was revealed!
Everyone couldn't help but cheer, and after turning, the stone door collapsed.
Throwing torches to drive away the insects and snakes in the cave, the first batch to explore were also the most elite guards...
Not far away, Mr. Tai held Zhuzhu in his arms and sat in a makeshift tent with the boys, using a small stove to make hot tea.
Chen Zhao stood at the door of the tent, stretching his neck, thinking about what was going on in the cave.
He really hoped that the treasures in the cave would be enough to support the border guards to win this war. Whether it was as a friend of the third prince of the prairie, looking forward to trade between the two countries for mutual benefit, or as a half of the Tai family supporting the sixth prince to win the throne, from now on Stepping onto the Qingyun Road, you will be blessed with glory and wealth. Or maybe he, a northerner, doesn't want his hometown to be destroyed by war and his fellow villagers to be slaughtered by foreigners...
This batch of treasures is so crucial!
On the other hand, Mr. Tai looked very calm. Like a traveler who has been walking hard in the darkness and finally sees the light.
Since that day when the old general gave him the blueprint, he hid it in the tobacco pole and carried a weight of ten thousand kilograms in his hands. He never dared to forget or neglect it.
What's more, for so many years, the family has been repeatedly implicated because of this incident, living in poverty, not having enough food and clothing, and even Yongning's leg injury and the old lady's death...
Now that he finally wrote down this heavy burden, he felt extremely relaxed. As for what's in the treasure, he doesn't care that much anymore!
Seeing the sun shining brightly, Zhuzhu ate a lot of snacks, but still complained that she was hungry, "Grandpa, Zhuzhu is hungry and wants to eat!"
The old man quickly called his grandchildren, took out the buns in the basket and baked them, and grabbed a few handfuls of millet to make porridge.
Tai Yonglu couldn't help but laugh when he thought of how his eldest brother looked distressed when Darhan ate steamed buns yesterday.
"The second aunt brought eldest brother a basketful of steamed buns, but Darhan and the others ate them. We brought half a basketful of them. Speaking of which, eldest brother didn't eat many of them!"
Tai Yongyue and Chen Ruiyang also laughed when they heard this. Tai Yongyue saw his sister squatting next to the baked buns and swallowing saliva, and asked dotingly, "Zhuzhu's belly is really big. How can she still be hungry after eating so many snacks?"
"I know this," Chen Ruiyang picked up Zhuzhu and sat on his leg. The fat girl felt her butt cold and responded smoothly, "My mother said it when she was alive. She said that girls have several stomachs. One There are snacks in one, food in one, and fruits in the other! Zhuzhu just filled the stomach with snacks, but now the one with food is hungry!"
Everyone laughed when they heard this, even Chen Zhao at the door turned around.
Zhuzhu bared her little white teeth and smiled a little shyly. Grandpa and brothers are all busy, but she is the only one who keeps eating!
But as Brother Ruiyang said, her little belly is so edible, but she’s not just a greedy person!
At this time, a guard suddenly came to report, "Shopkeeper Chen, Mr. Tai, the cave has been tidied up, Your Highness invites you to come over."
Mr. Tai and Chen Zhao stood up immediately in excitement. Just as they were about to lift their feet, they were stopped by a few eager boys.
Chen Zhao was in a dilemma, but Mr. Tai said to several boys, "At your age, it is good to see more of the world. But you must remember to be careful with your words and actions. Don't talk or walk around after entering, let alone touch things. Just in case. If you encounter an institution that has not been cleaned up, you may kill everyone, do you understand?" "Understood!" The three boys nodded vigorously, then took the initiative to line up in a line and stood behind the old man.
The old man bent down and picked up his little granddaughter, nodded with Chen Zhao and walked out.
Chen Zhao smiled bitterly, the Tai family was spoiled for children, and he really felt it again...
Although the cave has been open all morning, it still has a very stale atmosphere. The dug mountain path is a bit narrow, and there are rolling stones and spears scattered on the ground. It is obvious that the mechanism is very powerful.
There was no sunlight in the heart of the mountain, and it was a little dark, but at least twenty torches were lit, and the light was as bright as day.
The Sixth Prince stood in the middle. In front of him were many boxes of different sizes, some of which had been opened.
In the big box are spears and sabers made of fine iron, while in the small box are gold and silver spears, as well as various jewelry!
If you were in a jewelry store outside, a pair of jade bracelets would cost several hundred taels of silver, but here they were piled up like cabbages in the yard, shining brightly. There are also luminous pearls as big as fists, long strings of pearl necklaces, and golden hairpins with crests...
Not to mention the few boys who were dumbfounded, even Mr. Tai and Chen Zhao gasped and couldn't make a sound for a long time.
However, the Sixth Prince calmed down a little. He turned around and saluted Master Tai solemnly, "Grandpa Tai, this batch of weapons and gold and silver is too much. It is enough to support the border war, and it is enough for me... In short, without Grandpa Tai's righteousness and protection, For many years, no treasure has been revealed!"
The old man quickly shook his head and replied, "I just saved a blueprint. These things were hidden by the old general with great effort. I should thank the old general."
Chen Zhao's lips were trembling, his eyes were bright and frightening, and he whispered, "Back then, there were rumors that half of the treasury of the previous dynasty was lost in the war. Many people speculated which dignitary got the advantage, but they didn't expect that the old general was hiding! "
The Sixth Prince also knew about this, so he admired the old general and Mr. Tai even more.
The old general must have worked hard to get the treasure, but he didn't spend a penny on himself. He hid it here and waited for the opportunity.
Mr. Tai has been guarding the treasure for many years. No matter how poor his family was, he never thought of using it...
"Your Highness, we have had long nights and many dreams. Let's take advantage of the fact that the war at the border has attracted everyone's attention and no one is paying attention. Let's transport the things away quickly." Chen Zhao calmed down and suggested, "The weapons can be sent directly to the border, and the money can also be used. It is used for military pay. But these jewelry items need to be exchanged for gold and silver, and then purchasing military rations will be time-consuming and labor-intensive. I need manpower and time."
"Okay, Shopkeeper Chen is right, let's start quickly." The Sixth Prince responded in a good-humored manner, "Fortunately, the old general was also in a hurry at the time, so the construction here is not dangerous, otherwise it would have taken a lot of trouble. "
As they spoke, the guards led the soldiers in to move the boxes.
Mr. Tai retreated with Zhuzhu, and Chen Zhao asked the boys to help him record the accounts himself and register them all for the general to check. (End of chapter)
