After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 123 Do you know about the treasure?
"What's the approximate price?"

"If you can catch the toad alive, the price will definitely be no lower than that of the cockscomb snake. As for the Ganoderma lucidum, Mr. Xue needs to see the goods before he can determine the price."

"Catch him alive? I'm afraid that might be a little difficult."

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if it's dead or alive. It's just that it's more valuable for research. If you can catch it, dead or alive, I promise you at least 200 million."

I don’t know if it was because of the alcohol, but Zhang Yafeng spoke with such confidence.

In the past two years, Zhang Yafeng's career has been developing towards the provincial capital. The Xue family has considerable influence in the provincial capital, and he also spent a lot of effort to get in touch with Xue Qi.

Xue Qi's accident this time was inextricably linked to him, and he was eager to repair this relationship. If Chen Yang could do him this favor, he could even take the opportunity to curry favor with the Xue family and have closer ties with them.

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Chen."

The two of them were chatting about random things and came out of the bathroom. Coincidentally, Li Dongmei also came out of the women's bathroom next door.

This woman is quite polite.

She is in her twenties, has fair skin, and is well-dressed. She is the wife of a rich man, so she is naturally beautiful and has a good figure.

A pair of phoenix eyes, no matter who she looks at, gives people a feeling of flirting.

The two interrupted their conversation and greeted her.

"Mr. Chen, can I talk to you?"

What Chen Yang didn't expect was that Li Dongmei came straight to him.

This was something he had not expected.

He turned his head to look at Zhang Yafeng, but Zhang Yafeng shrugged and said, "Do whatever you want."

After saying that, he left Chen Yang behind and walked away.

Chen Yang felt somewhat helpless and turned to look at Li Dongmei.

"Mr. Chen should be in his early twenties, right? I'm not much older than you. You can call me Sister Li or Sister Dongmei. It's up to you."

Li Dongmei, wearing high heels, led Chen Yang to a quiet booth by the window.

Her voice was very pleasant, and her white dress was very close fitting, which made her figure even more beautiful. She exuded the mature charm of a married woman.

"Then call me Sister Li."

It was just a chance meeting, there was no need to get so close. Chen Yang was not the kind of person who would be unable to walk when seeing a beautiful woman. "Don't call me Mr. Chen, just call me by my name."

"Come to think of it, my husband's ancestors were also from Jiapigou, and their surname was also Chen. It's possible that they were one family decades ago."

"Really? That's a coincidence."

"My husband's grandfather's ancestral home is in Jiapigou. He is a man of the Jing generation. He went to Hong Kong Island more than 70 years ago. This is his first time back. He originally wanted to support the development of his hometown, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen..."

"My grandfather was also from the Jing generation, so we are of the same generation."

"Really? I see you're not that old, you must have just graduated from college, right?..."

……

Li Dongmei picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for Chen Yang very elegantly. With a few words, she brought them closer.

After a while of greetings, Chen Yang was a little worried for her as she kept beating around the bush and didn't get to the point. "Sister Li, if you have anything to say, just say it. I like to be straightforward."

"Uh……"

Li Dongmei looked at Chen Yang with some surprise. Was her expression very obvious?

"You know what I want to ask you?"

"Hey."

Chen Yang looked very tired, "I just wanted to ask about the treasure in the mountain. I wonder if my guess is right?"

Froze for a moment.

"You know about the treasure?"

Li Dongmei sat up straighter. Chen Yang's words caught her off guard. Chen Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Sister Li, the Qishan treasure is really not a secret. People who grew up here have heard about it. In recent years, many people have gone into the mountains to look for treasures. Some went there in the name of exploration, some in the name of exploration, and some like you, who openly said they were here for tourism, but turned out to be..."

Chen Yang said jokingly, "How can a tourist go to Mixiangou? It's not a tourist destination."

Li Dongmei's face twitched slightly when she heard this.

To be honest, now that I think about it, it was not very smart of them to go into the mountains to hunt for treasure under the guise of a tour group. It was even a bit clumsy, giving people the feeling that they were trying to hide something.

On the surface, we were travelling and investigating and preparing for investment, which sounded very high-sounding, but in reality, we were just short of telling others that we were going into the mountains to look for treasure.

Therefore, anyone with a little bit of common sense can guess their motives.

Li Dongmei felt a little embarrassed when Chen Yang pointed it out.

“We are indeed preparing to come back and invest.”

She tried to make an excuse, but she didn't seem to think it was very convincing. She smiled awkwardly and changed the subject to the point.

"Having said that, I won't hide it from you. We are indeed on this trip to look for treasures, but unlike others, we just want to find back the things left by our ancestors..."

"You may not believe this, but the treasure in Qishan was actually left by my husband's great-grandfather. My husband and his family left Shu and went to Hong Kong Island because of the treasure..."

"Three years ago, my great-grandmother passed away. When we were sorting out her belongings, we learned some information about the treasure. This matter has become a knot in my husband's family, so we made this trip to Qishan."

……

Li Dongmei talked to herself.

Chen Yang just listened quietly and did not rush to express any opinions.

"I know that many years have passed since I said these things, and I'm afraid no one will believe me even if I tell them. You probably won't believe it either..."

"No, I believe it."

"what?"

Li Dongmei looked at Chen Yang in astonishment.

His words "I believe" disrupted all the words she had prepared for later.

"I believe."

Chen Yang leaned back in his chair and nodded seriously, "You should be the descendants of Chen Erwa, no, your full name should be Chen Antai, right?"

Li Dongmei was stunned.

"You know this too?" She was very surprised.

Chen Yang shook his head. "I told you, this is not a secret. Anyone who is interested can find out what happened with a little research. History has records of it."

"Ah."

Li Dongmei nodded in agreement. "Yes, my husband's great grandfather, whose taboo name is Chen Antai, was the one who hid the treasure back then. Now that you know that, you should be able to understand that we are just taking back what belongs to us..."

"Miss Li."

Chen Yang interrupted her, "I don't agree with what you said."

"Oh?"

Li Dongmei frowned slightly.

Chen Yang said, "What happened back then is an unsolved case. Was the treasure story a fabrication?"

"It's true. I can be sure of that."

"Ok."

Chen Yang nodded, "Let's just say it's true, but Chen Antai is just a treasure trove after all."

"I'm not afraid to offend you, but if I stole something from someone else's house and hid it somewhere, after a hundred or eighty years, can my descendants openly say that it was my family's property?"
