Chapter 342: Time is Wealth
"No way!" At this time, Chen Shaosong refused instead, shook his head and said, "For the sake of fairness, we also need someone to watch!"
"Song, can't you trust me?" Dudding frowned.
"It's not that I can't believe it, it's that they don't believe it." Chen Shaosong said, with a calm face. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to worry about it, he wouldn't want to worry about it. So whether Dudin agrees or not, there is nothing to lose for him.
"Okay, but only three people will remain."
In the end, Dudin gave in again, and as Wang Guan said, all disputes were in vain until the treasure was found. When the treasure is discovered, it's not too late to take care of the aftermath slowly.
At the moment, the two parties reached an agreement for the time being. Among the blocking crowd, three people were left as representatives, and the others also dispersed one after another. Wander around the neighborhood and wait for the results.
At the same time, Chen Shaosong beckoned: "Let's go." ”
"Where are you going?" Chen Shaofeng was stunned.
"Go back, of course." Chen Shaosong said with a smile: "If you stay, I'm afraid someone should be in a hurry." ”
Knowing that he was squeezing himself, Dading pretended not to hear anything, and only commanded a group of his subordinates to get ready and tear down the somewhat dilapidated church in front of him as quickly as possible.
"If we're gone, I don't know if those people will make trouble again."
Suddenly, Chen Shaofeng looked "worried" and sighed: "Without the third brother pressing, who knows in the end...... Will there be people who are desperate and take risks......"
"Loose!"
Moment. Dudin turned around and had a bright smile on his face: "You are a notary, how can you leave." Come and sit down here and see how they demolished the house. If you're interested, you can also go up and give it a try! ”
At Dudding's enthusiastic invitation, several people came to Dudding's headquarters, a simple shed. There is no shortage of cigarettes, alcohol and drinks, and there are two hot beauties...... Although there may be slight differences in the aesthetics of the two countries. But the one who can make Dudin hug left and right should be regarded as a beauty.
After sitting down in the shed, Wang Guan looked at it with interest. I saw Dudding's order, and a group of people who were ready immediately poured into the dilapidated church and moved everything that could be moved inside.
Saying. This church has really been abandoned for a long time. The things that came out were either tattered chairs or tattered tables, none of which were valuable.
But if you think about it, if there is something valuable, it is estimated that decades ago, when the clergy of the church were evacuated, they should have taken it with them. Even if there are some things that can't be taken away, they will be scratched by the locals. Now all those people have to do is to search carefully, and even dig into the ground. Let's see if we can find the hidden riches.
In fact, although many people think that the treasure is just a legend, everyone has a fluke mentality and hopes that they can discover the legendary treasure. And then get rich overnight.
It's just that Dading is more direct, belongs to the action group, does what he wants, and really brings people to find it.
Half an hour later, all the things in the dilapidated church were moved out, after hearing the report from his subordinates. Dudding's eyebrows raised, and he immediately waved his hand: "Can't find it?" Then tear it down for me! ”
"Boom!"
In an instant, scenes of violent demolition began to be staged here. Under the gaze of everyone, several people drove a huge push machine, and then manipulated a huge steel shovel, pushing up and down, and the dilapidated church wall collapsed with a bang.
However, Wang Guan also noticed that in the process of pushing the wall, there were always a few people standing near the wall regardless of the danger, observing and looking carefully, as if they were looking for something.
Seeing this, Wang Guan laughed quietly: "It seems that they suspect that there is a mezzanine on the wall, and there may be gold coins and treasures. ”
Chen Shaofeng chuckled and nodded in agreement.
Speaking of which, both China and the West have the habit of burying treasures. It's just that the Chinese landlords and gentry liked to hide valuable things in the cellars of the manors, while the Western aristocratic knights and the like hid things in the castle fireplaces.
It can be seen that this is human nature.
While Wang Guan sighed, the demolition work continued. After two hours, the walls of the dilapidated church were demolished. Such a project progress, if it is placed in China, is simply a shame, and it cannot raise its head in front of its peers.
Of course, there is a reason for this slowness, after all, every time a wall is torn down, the people next to it have to carefully inspect it, and almost every brick is picked up and weighed. Slow work and meticulous work, the progress is naturally not fast.
Surprisingly, everyone was willing to wait, and no one felt impatient.
This is the power of wealth.
In any case, the church had been dismantled, and only a few lone pillars were left standing upright, all around which were empty, and the bricks had been removed.
The church is torn apart, don't say anything about the treasure, not even the shadow of the treasure is seen, what should I do?
"Dig!"
As if he had expected it, Dudin waved his hand and commanded, and suddenly several excavators scattered around, and then waved a huge mechanical arm to grab the foundation of the church one by one.
At this time, everyone became more attentive to watch, and their eyes were fixed on the ground without blinking.
However, the end result was a disappointment for many, and with the continuous excavation of seven or eight excavators, all the foundations of the church were dug out, and a deep pit had formed in the whole ground, but nothing was found.
“%%&&!”
At this point, Dudin couldn't sit still, lost his temper, threw down the cigar in his hand, and ravaged it with his foot.
Not only him, but also those onlookers were disappointed, shaking their heads one after another, and dispersed in twos and threes, obviously not holding out any hope.
"I've said it a long time ago, you can't believe legends or anything." At this time, Chen Shaosong lit a cigarette and said indifferently: "After the play is over, it's time to go back." ”
Chen Shaofeng nodded, and then said with a smile: "Dading, since you are here, do you want to come to my house as a guest?" ”
“……”
Dudin is very unhappy now, so naturally there will be no response.
"Wang Guan, let's go."
Chen Shaofeng shrugged his shoulders, didn't care, turned around to greet Wang Guan, and followed Chen Shaosong.
"Here we are." Wang Guan stood up, in fact, he also felt that he was quite bored, and he actually wasted three or four hours watching this meaningless farce here.
As he turned to leave, Wang Guan passed by a pile of debris. It was something that was moved out of the church, and every piece of it was repeatedly studied, and when it was found to be worthless, it was all piled up as garbage.
However, when Wang Guan walked by, he inadvertently glanced at it, and when he saw something, his heart suddenly moved, and he laughed: "I seem to understand what that huge wealth is." ”
"Huh!"
In an instant, people who could understand Mandarin looked over, especially Dudding, whose eyes widened, as if they had found a glimmer of hope in despair.
"Wang Guan, you ......"
At the same time, Chen Shaofeng was also very curious, and walked over and asked in a low voice, "Did you find anything?" ”
"It occurred to me that we might have confused one thing." Wang Guan smiled and said, "Wealth and treasure are probably two different things. ”
"How?" Chen Shaofeng was puzzled.
"For many people, wealth means many things. For example, knowledge is wealth, life experience is also valuable wealth, and treasure is pure money. Wang Guan smiled and explained: "Now, we need to figure out whether the source of this legend refers to wealth or treasure. ”
"If you mean wealth, then what do you say?" Chen Shaofeng asked in surprise, and everyone next to him also listened attentively, wanting to know how Wang Guan answered.
"Time is wealth." Wang Guan didn't sell it, and pointed to the largest thing among the miscellaneous items.
Everyone hurriedly looked and saw that the thing was a huge mechanical clock, which had been hung on the roof of the church, and had been taken down and thrown here when the wall was torn down.
If you look closely, you can see that this mechanical clock is some years old, the numerals in the clock have been blurred, and the hour and minute hands have stagnated, and it is clear that the mechanical clock has not been wound for a long time, or it has simply failed.
"If I'm not mistaken, this mechanical clock should be hundreds of years old."
At this time, Wang Guan continued to explain: "Hundreds of years ago, the Western mechanical clock should be the most advanced timekeeping tool in the world. Not many people in the area have seen it, and when they see the mechanical clock hanging from the church, it is bound to cause a sensation. ”
"I see."
Chen Shaofeng suddenly realized, and couldn't help laughing: "In the past, people used the most primitive and very simple timekeeping methods, and suddenly saw the most advanced mechanical clock, they must be very surprised, and felt that it was a very precious thing. Then it was passed down from generation to generation, and it was rumored that the church had great wealth and treasure. ”
"I guess that's it." Wang Guan smiled: "In fact, there are many examples like this. I've heard of some very old families who buried things that were precious at the time for future generations. But when later generations dug up, they found that the so-called treasure was actually the most worthless glass now. ”
"Yes, yes, I've heard of such things, too." Chen Shaofeng sighed with a smile: "The times are advancing, and the treasures that were very precious at that time are not rare now. On the contrary, what was not valuable at the time may now become a treasure. ”
Some people knew Mandarin, and under their translation, others also knew Wang Guan's explanation and believed it.
If you don't believe it, there is no way, even the church has been demolished, and even three feet into the ground. Not to mention the treasure, not even a single coin has been found, and everyone is already desperate. Now under Wang Guan's awakening, he is completely dead and has no one left.
Not only did the onlookers disperse, but Dudin also took people away, leaving the ground devastated all over the place.
Seeing this, Chen Shaofeng shouted with a smile: "Dading, don't forget your treasure......"
"I gave it to you." Dudding didn't look back, and hurried away with his men.
Chen Shaofeng smiled, suddenly reacted, and said angrily: "Dading, you bastard!" (To be continued)
