Chapter 247: Treasure Hunt Squad
The Fukuzawa family moved to Nagoya from Kagoshima, Kyushu, which was originally the domain of the Satsuma Domain, which was one of the main forces of the Shogunate Movement.
The ancestor of the Fukuzawa family was one of the "aspiring youths" at that time, and participated in the famous bourgeois revolution, which Fuyumi often said to Suzuki Noshi, "My family came from Kyushu and killed your cattle."
In 1867, the Shogunate faction staged a coup d'Γ©tat, proclaimed the "Imperial Regime", abolished the rule of the shogunate, established a new government, and ordered the last shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate, Tokugawa Yoshiki, to surrender the territory, which included most of the current Aichi Prefecture - the Tokugawa family's old nest was in the Mikawa area, and Mikawa and Owari were both in and around what is now Aichi Prefecture.
Of course, Tokugawa Yoshiki refused to stand still, actively organized forces to counterattack, and then knelt directly under the general trend. However, the Tokugawa shogunate ruled for more than 260 years, and there were still many diehards, especially in the territory of the family, who refused to surrender or surrendered superficially, and secretly mischievous
The Shogunate faction did not stop doing anything, and directly carried out a major purge of the Tokugawa family's territory and even the Kanto region, completely sweeping away the remnants of the Tokugawa family, and the process was quite bloody.
This is the big historical background, and the ancestor of the Fukuzawa family participated in the continuous crusade against the wealthy families around Nagoya after participating in the Fushimi Toba Armageddon, that is, to kill the "Suzuki family's cow", but one of the crusades was ambushed, and the small team was killed and fled, and he was one of the small leaders who had the value of being used as a bargaining chip, and was chased by the other party. While hiding in the mountains, he accidentally discovered the secret treasure of the Fukuzawa family, the "Golden Nest".
He hid in the mountains for a while, and when he came out again, he was stunned to find that the world was too peaceful again, and the original crusade object had changed into a "Chinese" again, and they were still high in the name of the middle and low-level samurai, and they fought desperately, and in the end, the benefits were all stolen by the original big shots, and the soup was completely changed.
He was disheartened and quit directly, settled down at the foot of the mountain where he found the "Golden Nest", and used the gold sand produced in the Golden Nest to settle down to marry his wife, and at the same time subsidize the lives of his companions' widows and descendants, and after his death, the children slowly migrated from the mountain village to the big city in pursuit of a better quality of life, and when the generation of Fukuzawa Naokaka arrived, he already had a fairly decent big house in the SZ district of Nagoya City, and lived a worry-free life.
Even if Fukuzawa Naokaka was cheated by his brothers, his lifelong swordsmanship was completely wasted, and he went around East Asia in frustration, and his family was not defeated, and he also kidnapped a wife back, and in the future, he couldn't do anything, he went bankrupt, and lost a lot of money, but he still didn't go bankrupt and could barely maintain a middle-class life. Later, Dongmei and their mother were terminally ill, Fukuzawa Naokaka didn't give up, how could he save his wife back, and he went abroad to see a doctor, and spent a lot of money, but the unfortunate thing that could crush several families fell to Fukuzawa's family, and he didn't even sell the house, and the whole family was still able to eat enough, and he was still dying, which shows the depth of the heritage.
This should be the credit of the heirloom of the Fukuzawa family, otherwise the Fukuzawa family would have gone to bed early on the street.
The scroll in front of me is a memoir left by the first head of the Fukuzawa family to settle in Guanzhong, which describes his life experience, reflection on life, hatred of the aristocracy, and finally leaves a large list of ancestral teachings, such as descendants are not allowed to work for the government anymore, and should no longer be used as pawns by the big shots;
Kitahara Shuji finally understood after reading it, no wonder Fukuzawa Naokaka has been reluctant to say, it should be afraid that the children are too young to inadvertently leak the secret, or the eldest son is only three years old, and before he can say it, he lied that he has been borrowing money from his friends, which makes Dongmei's little radish head sad, for fear that this family is in debt and will completely collapse tomorrow.
If Fuyumi and the others had all grown up, and Naokaka Fukuzawa hadn't hung up at that time, he would probably explain the matter to the children, and then dig up the preparations for the accident and destroy them, but unfortunately he didn't have time to go to the hospital and lie down.
Fuyumi and Haruna also finished reading it, Haruna thought about it, and first said, "Sister, I must be tight-lipped and never say it." β
A secret that only the head of the house can know, it must be rotten in the heart.
Fuyumi naturally believed Haruna, nodded lightly, and just ordered, "Don't tell Xiaosi Xiaowu and Taro yet." Her thoughts were a bit similar to her father's, she felt that the three were too small, and she said that it was not safe, and it would not be too late to talk about them when they were older.
Kitahara Shuji also touched his head next to him, and said helplessly: "I won't say it either, I swear." β
Dongmei didn't care, Kitahara Shuji had already proved his character with his actions, otherwise, according to his ability, he would have run out to make a lot of money, why stay in this small broken store at home!
Haruna didn't care either, and she felt that the eldest sister was doing the right thing. She noticed that Kitahara Shuji wanted to avoid suspicion, but Kitahara Shuji was very good to them, so they had to treat each other with sincerity - it involved money, and to push him aside, the distrust was too obvious, and that was not good.
Heirlooms are not as valuable as Kitahara Shuji's affection, and people must distinguish between the important and the important.
Xueli didn't care about anything at home, and she didn't know anything about it, so she casually promised that she would never say anything, but she looked at the map with interest, and asked Lehehe: "Where is this place!"
She watched it for a long time, but she didn't understand it, and she thought that the bear head was very cute, and it must be delicious.
The map is accompanied by a written record, Haruna took out her mobile phone, found out the modern map, made a rough comparison, and said, "It should be near Zeng Chi Mountain." β
"Where is that?"
"It's at the southern end of the Hida Mountains, about 100 kilometers from here. β
"So far?" scored 7 points in the geography test in the snow, and I couldn't figure out what the Hida Mountains were, but I could still know the distance at 100 kilometers, and I felt like I had to run for a day.
Dongmei said impatiently: "Far away, it won't take two hours by car, our grandfather likes to move over from a big city, you have an opinion to talk to him." β
Japan has twice engaged in urban centralization, creating a prosperous circle in Tokyo Bay, six major economic circles, and her grandfather came to Nagoya from Kitaka to buy property and settle down, which is a second time for countrymen to settle in the city, anyway, Fukuzawa's hometown is in Kyushu, as long as you don't go back to your hometown, where to move a bear.
Dongmei looked at her watch, and felt that it was too late to go into the mountain today, and she was irritated again, and said angrily: "Let's go into the mountain early tomorrow morning and dig out that thing, and eat now!"
She wanted to find it right away and take a look, but time did not allow it, and if she went now, she would have to spend the night in the mountains, and she was even more unprepared, so she couldn't go into the mountain empty-handed, so she could only delay it until tomorrow.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Zhi Xia Sha came in with a curtain lifted, and when she saw them gathered together, she suddenly became vigilant, and the fox asked, "What are you discussing?"
These big ones are sharing the benefits in private? And they don't bring us? Everyone is a sister, and they should give us a share of the benefits!
Fuyumi rolled up the scroll with her back and hid it on her body, and then she was ready to prepare mountaineering tools and supplies, while Natsuori Natsura followed her and looked left and right, and asked in unison: "Eldest sister, what are you hiding on your body? Is it a family heirloom? Yes, how much can it be sold for?"
Dongmei ignored them at all, Fukuzawa Naokaka felt that she was still too young, she also felt that Xia Zhi Xia Sha was too small, it was impossible for them to know the secrets of the family, and said angrily: "I have nothing to hide, there are no heirlooms at home, our family is poor, don't daydream in the future, live a life of diligence and thrift, understand?!Don't follow me again, follow me again and I'll beat you!"
She shook her little hand and left, Kitahara Shuji suspected that she was the eldest aunt and came to visit immediately, it seems that the days are indeed about the same, it will be very irritable, and she can't provoke her too much these days, and Natsuori Natsuna is not dead, and she turns back to observe the facial expressions of Yukiri and Haruna, exchanging glances with each other - something must have happened, these big ones are colluding to eat more and occupy more.
They didn't ask again, Haruna Yukiri and Fuyumi were in the same group, and they wouldn't say it if they asked. They began to maintain a high level of vigilance and closely monitor the movements of several sisters, but nothing happened that day, as usual, but they woke up early the next morning to find that the three sisters and Kitahara Shuji were all gone, and only left a note for them, telling them to take care of their home and Akitaro, there was food in the refrigerator, and they used the microwave to heat up their own food.
Xia Zhi Xia Sha stinked on her little face, and felt that this big guy must have gone to dig up family heirlooms!
Sister Mo Ruomei, they really didn't guess wrong. Fuyumi secretly woke up Yukiri, Haruna and Kitahara Shuji at four o'clock in the morning, and was about to go into the mountain to get the heirloom back, but Kitahara Shuji woke up after just three hours of sleep, very speechless - you are really not afraid of my intention to see money!
Don't you understand the truth that "if the king is not secret, he will lose his country, and if the minister is not secret, he will lose his body"?
He didn't really want to go, but he felt a little uneasy about letting the three girls go into the mountain alone, and finally followed-people trusted him so much, he had to be worthy of this trust, and he was going to take everything he saw and heard in the past two days directly into the coffin, and never divulged it to anyone, which was the second biggest secret after him who had crossed over.
Of course, although the description of the "Golden Nest" on the scroll is quite mysterious, saying that it can automatically produce gold sand, which is a gift from the gods, but he doesn't believe that it is really that evil, it should be that the ancestor of the Fukuzawa family is semi-literate, and he is deeply poisoned by feudal superstition, and as a result, he has made this kind of brainless and mentally retarded thing.
But he can't figure out what it is, since he can't figure it out, it's better to open his eyes, and it can be regarded as a life experience.
But it's certainly not a gold mine, nearly 130 million people in Japan are crowded together, and there is no place on the ground that has not been stepped on, and modern science and technology are so developed, mining exploration and even satellites have been used, aircraft, vehicles, and manpower are not a problem, if there is really a large piece of precious metals buried on the shallow surface, it would have been discovered N times long ago, according to the strength of the Fukuzawa family, it can't be kept at all, and it has been snatched away long ago.
Three of Japan's four top conglomerates started in the extractive industry, digging gold, silver, and copper. Japan is a volcanic country, with intense geological activity and a large number of gold and silver mines, and these consortia only need to dig hard to complete the primitive accumulation, which is very easy, and once owned 40% of the world's mined silver and close to 15% of the mined gold.
Of course, the country of gold and silver, which has been dug up for so many years, has long been hollowed out, and it is no longer the place full of silver and gold that Marco Polo imagined in his book, but it should be quite possible to leave some residues.
I can't say, I can't say it, let's see!
As soon as the sky dawned, their four-member "treasure hunting team" began to enter the mountains of the Hida Mountains, and since they dared to call them mountains, they must be mountains one by one - Japan is a mountainous country, and the Hida Mountains are the most famous mountains in central Japan, and as far as the eye can see, they are full of mountains and forests.
