Rebirth of the Legend of the Red Age

Chapter 187, Dragon War Returns North

That night, with the cooperation of Wang Li and other two, Zhang Fang's leather armor was made. Although they were in a hurry, mother and Zheng Lan were very skillful.

The snakeskin waistcoat is very beautiful and comfortable without affecting movement.

The next morning, Wang Li got up early and rushed to Zhang Lei's house with the item. He gave the waistcoat to Zhang Lei and asked him to send it to Zhang Fang as soon as possible through his connections.

Zhang Lei and his wife and Zhang Fang's wife were all very touched, because they had just mentioned this matter last night, and Wang Li delivered the things this morning. Moreover, the waistcoat looked new at first glance, so it must have been made by Wang Li's family in a hurry at night.

Although the two families have a close relationship and have received help from Wang Li many times, this time the safety of Zhang Fang's life is involved. Their gratitude to Wang Li is more sincere and warm, which also makes the relationship between the two families closer.

After Wang Li returned to the courtyard, he continued to travel in Kyoto with Long Zhan and Mona.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Long Zhan and his wife had lived in Wang Li's house for half a month.

During this period, Wang Li took the couple to visit all the tourist attractions around Kyoto, and also took the couple to Kyoto Department Store and other more prosperous places for shopping.

After all, they also want to buy some souvenirs for their father and relatives at home.

Of course, the bills used were all provided by Wang Li. At first, Long Zhan was a little embarrassed, but after Wang Li brought up the brotherhood, Long Zhan, who valued friendship, did not delay any longer.

During this period, Mona, Zheng Lan, and Lai Xiaomei got along very happily, especially Mona and Zheng Lan, who had the best relationship, and they felt that they had met too late.

Although they are of different nationalities and ages, they have one thing in common: they all come from good backgrounds.

One was born into a Mongolian noble family, and the other was born into a large family in Kyoto. Both were brought up by their families since childhood.

Moreover, the two of them got along very well. Although there was a ten-year age difference between them, they had a lot in common.

They were just one step away from becoming sisters of the opposite sex. The two women agreed that if their future children were suitable, they would let them get married.

They can be a real pair of sisters, that is, in-laws.

Long Zhan and Wang Li tacitly agreed with what the two sisters said. They were both very optimistic about each other's character and family.

But all good things must come to an end. With Zheng Lan and Mona reluctant to leave and Lai Xiaomei bidding farewell with tears in her eyes, Wang Li and Kong Jiye sent Long Zhan and his wife on a train heading north.

The two families agreed that if there is time and opportunity, they will bring their children to visit each other's home, and even if they cannot go, they will write letters frequently.

After sending Long Zhan and his wife away, Wang Li's family returned to their previous regular life. There was also an episode in the middle. One night, Wang Li secretly put the two cubic meters of gold he brought back this time into the underground treasure house in the third courtyard.

The next night he quietly brought his wife to the treasure house.

She said to Zheng Lan: I have a great harvest from my trip to the north this time, which I just brought back two days ago. As the hostess of the family, you should also know about the situation.

After saying that, under Zheng Lan's puzzled eyes, he walked to a corner of the underground treasure house, lifted the black cloth covering the gold, revealing a pile of gold.

No matter how good Zheng Lan's background was and how much she had seen the world, she had never seen so much gold in her life, and at first glance it was raw gold similar to gold nuggets.

She walked over, picked up a fist-sized piece of gold, and examined it in her hand. After confirming that it was gold, she asked her husband in surprise: "How did you get so much gold? Did you pick it up in the mountains?"

Wang Li replied: You are so smart. This is what I found in the underground space when I was exploring underground cracks. There should be a lot more there.

But the content is not as high as these, and it is not easy to mine manually, so I brought back those that are easier to mine, about 30 tons.

At this time, Zheng Lan had adjusted her mentality. She looked at her husband proudly and said: You are really amazing! But you didn't let others know about this gold, did you? If others knew about it, our family would be in big trouble.

Wang Li immediately told her the story he had prepared earlier: Don't worry, I used the trees around Longjia Village to make some boxes, then scattered the gold into them, and then sealed them with nails, and then asked someone to ship these boxes to Kyoto.

Although the gold was very heavy, when packing, each box was not full. The rest was filled with straw so that the box was not that heavy.

The only drawback was that there were a lot of boxes, and it took my friend a long time to transport all the boxes to Kyoto.

It was also today that I moved all the gold in the box to the underground treasury.

Zheng Lan finally felt relieved. After all, with so much gold, even the trusted people would inevitably have other thoughts if they knew about it.

Money can move people's hearts, let alone such a huge amount of wealth.

Zheng Lan asked again: "I heard that nugget gold is very valuable. These should all be nugget gold, right? Do you think we should remelt this gold? Or just keep it as it is?"
Wang Li said: I have already thought about it. We will collect those larger and better-looking gold nuggets as collections.

For those that are smaller and have no shape or meaning, we can try to refine them into gold bars, which will be convenient for us to use in the future.
