Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!
Chapter 83 The thief has a ton of treasure!
An hour later, they finally found the location of the treasure that 'Flying Leopard' had mentioned, discovering a protruding boulder and a steep hillside, matching the terrain he had described.
Instead of immediately going forward, he circled the area again to make sure there was no one else within a hundred meters.
He Yuzhu took out a pickaxe he bought from the mall and began clearing away the debris in front of the cave. The pickaxe was useless against the large rocks, so he used his hands to move them. Fortunately, he was strong and could move the hundred-pound rocks without much effort.
By 11 o'clock, the area in front of the cave entrance had been cleared, and the cave was finally visible, but it was pitch black and we couldn't see inside.
Following the example from the TV series, He Yuzhu bought three torches and threw them into the cave. The sealed cave might be dangerous, so He Yuzhu was cautious just in case.
Ten minutes later, the three torches were still burning. There was oxygen in the cave, and by the light of the fire, He Yuzhu could see many boxes of various sizes inside the cave.
Now I understand what "a little money" means? Small treasure. The real big stuff is right here; these thieves are incredibly rich!
Having confirmed that there was no danger inside the cave, He Yuzhu did not wait any longer and quickly crawled through the cave entrance and entered the cave.
"Collect...collect." He Yuzhu circled the mountaintop, storing all the boxes into his system space without checking what treasures were inside.
After carefully storing the treasure, they shone a flashlight inside the cave again to make sure there were no other items. Then they left the cave and didn't block the entrance again.
This place is remote. If someone discovers the hole again, it's impossible to find out who did it. There are no eyewitnesses, no cameras, so finding the person is not easy.
He Yuzhu cautiously returned to the path at the foot of the mountain, took out his bicycle, and rode back without stopping there.
I can return to Emei Restaurant before 1 p.m. He Yushui hasn't gone to her afternoon class yet, and she'll be very happy to see me, knowing that her brother hasn't abandoned her.
What's inside those 868 boxes? He Yuzhu's heart was itching with curiosity; he really wanted to know right away. But counting the supplies would take too long; he'd talk about it when he got home.
He Yuzhu harbored resentment towards the system again, thinking, "Why didn't you give me 'divine sense'? It could cover an area of 100,000 square kilometers at once, and all the unclaimed treasures in Yanjing City would be mine."
He Yuzhu felt he had lost millions, a huge loss, by not letting them bury underground and collect dust.
They didn't encounter any soldiers or militia near Tian Tai Mountain, only two or three people, who were too far away to see their faces clearly. This time, they were truly safe and sound, and no one could find them.
On the way back to the restaurant, he encountered a few farmers here and there, but that was no big deal. He Yuzhu kept his head down and rode his bicycle, and no one paid any attention to him.
Upon entering the main urban area of Yanjing, He Yuzhu returned to the Emei Restaurant with ease; it was not yet one o'clock in the afternoon.
"Brother's back. I was very good at the restaurant, so I didn't have to wait until six o'clock in the evening." He Yushui was indeed very happy to see him return.
"Good, I bought some Aiwowo. Should I eat one now, or do you want to eat it when I get home tonight?" He Yuzhu asked.
"I had a big lunch, so I'm taking it home to eat."
"become."
"Zhuzi, now that you've finished your business, you should all go home early this afternoon after school."
It's the off-season for work now, so there's not much to do. You should take a few breaks; you're young, so you need to take care of your health.
"Yes, Master. We'll go home after school this afternoon when it rains."
At He Yushui's request, I went home to spread poison, making them drool.
......
Back in the courtyard, He Yushui took out the pork belly she had bought and watched He Yuzhu make braised pork. Dongpo pork was relatively more troublesome and took longer. Braised pork was much easier.
He watched He Yuzhu make braised pork until it simmered over low heat, then He Yushui went to learn how to make it.
The aroma of braised pork filled the air, making Jia Zhangshi at home craving it so much she was practically dying of hunger. She hadn't had a single bite of braised pork since the New Year, and she was craving it terribly.
After thinking for a long time, he wanted Qin Huairu to borrow some meat, but Qin Huairu refused, saying, "I can't bear the embarrassment. If I have money, I'll eat. Borrowing meat to eat? I've never heard of that."
These words nearly choked Jia Zhangshi to death. She was furious and helpless. She wanted to hit Qin Huairu, but she was afraid that she couldn't beat her or that she would drive Qin Huairu away.
Only Jia Zhangshi herself knew that after this hospitalization, her health was far worse than before. She felt much weaker and often felt tightness in her chest.
She felt she needed to take some supplements, but she didn't tell anyone, including her son Jia Dongxu.
Qin Huairu was also craving meat, but borrowing some was impossible. Going to He Yuzhu's house to eat was an option, and then cleaning up the table afterwards would be a good solution. However, this was just wishful thinking, as the Jia family mother and son were still alive.
The Jia Zhang family is a nuisance. After the divorce, I have no source of income, and leaving the courtyard house is even worse. I'm so distressed.
They were craving it. The two children Tan Guilan adopted were drooling with envy in the Intermediate People's Court. They were well-educated and didn't come over to smell the meat or ask for it.
Since no one came to bother her, Tan Guilan didn't care. She just thought that she hadn't eaten meat for several months, so she would buy some meat in a few days and cook it. She would eat a few bites, but it wouldn't be as fragrant as the braised pork that Zhu Zi made.
The women in the front yard, like those at home, hadn't eaten meat for months and were drooling with longing, which was perfectly normal; for them, eating meat was a luxury.
Just stay home and smell it!
He Yushui went out to play and saw Junjun and Jingjing playing. They kept glancing at their own kitchen and gently sniffing, and she understood what the two children were thinking.
A little after five o'clock, I ran home and said, "Brother, we made extra braised pork. Could we give some to Aunt Tan's two children?"
"They want braised pork from you."
"No. I saw how much they wanted the meat, so I wanted to give it to them myself."
"Give us whatever you want, it's enough for the two of us, plus shredded pork with sweet bean sauce and stir-fried shredded potatoes."
"Thank you, brother."
"Aunt Tan, the braised pork will be ready soon. I'll serve some to the two kids so they can try my brother's cooking."
"Thank you for the rain. You can eat it yourselves. I'll buy some meat in a few days and cook it for them."
"No need. My brother bought a lot of meat. We don't eat at home often; we eat out most of the time. Leftover meat isn't good anyway. It'll be ready in a little while."
"Thank you, Rainwater, and thank you to your brother. He's a very good cook; he makes mutton soup for Chinese New Year, and it smells amazing."
"My brother is a pretty good cook, at the restaurant..." He Yushui began to boast about her brother.
"A monthly salary of over a million. Zhu Zi is already this good even before he's finished his apprenticeship. He'll have money to get married in three years. No wonder he's willing to spend money on you..."
"My brother said that buying clothes doesn't cost much. Last year I bought clothes, this year he bought clothes, we bought them at different times..."
The two, one big and one small, talked until almost six o'clock. Xu Damao came home from school, smelled the aroma, sniffed, and ran over.
"Zhu Zi, you're back early today, that's rare. Is there any braised pork for me?"
"There are three catties of braised pork, which should be enough for three people, plus two other dishes,"
"Wait for me, I'll go back and get a bottle of wine. I'll come over and eat meat too. Your cooking skills are definitely the best in the courtyard." After saying that, Xu Damao quickly ran home.
After the braised pork was cooked, a bowl was served to Tan Guilan, and there were still about three pounds left.
Heat up the rice, stir-fry the other two dishes, and it's time to eat.
