A year later, the crops in the villa not only had a bumper harvest, but also flocks of chickens and ducks, cattle and horses, all of which were due to Chen Zhengqiu. Without him, the villagers would not understand the truth of being a man, and they would continue to be thieves and thieves.

The big boss also fulfilled the promise of the year, and asked him to take Xiaofeng back to wait for his father and mother, and enjoy the joy of family life.

On the day she went out, Xiaofeng said worriedly: "Xianggong, the concubine is a thief woman after all, once her father-in-law knows about it, don't you want you to divorce me?" ”

Chen Zhengqiu said: "This husband has long been thought of, I will go back with you, and I will say that you are the eldest lady of a wealthy merchant in the provincial capital, and you met when you were studying, and the two admired each other, so they formed a joint branch!" ”

Xiaofeng said: "As the saying goes, if you don't want people to know, unless you don't do anything, the days are long, and you will always show your feet!" ”

Chen Zhengqiu said: "I have also thought about this, your father was right at the beginning, now the turbid world, the Yuan Dynasty is about to end, the court **, corrupt officials accumulate wealth, the traitorous party controls the government, accepts bribes everywhere, and donates three thousand taels of silver to a county superintendent, it is better for us to go directly to Yulin Town to buy a shop to do business, so that my father and mother will believe it!" ”

When he went out, the big boss ordered a carriage for the two of them, put Xiaofeng's private room on the car, and drove straight to Yulin Town.

The two bought a property in the north of Yulin Town, opened a shop, and started a business.

Sure enough, when Chen Zhengqiu took Xiaofeng back to the countryside to meet his parents, the two firmly believed it, but when they wanted to take them to live in the town, they said that they were used to living in the countryside, and everything in the town cost money, and it was inconvenient, so they refused to come out.

After the two opened a shop in the town, the big boss sometimes came down to stay for a few days, and the brothers from the cottage often came down to buy goods, and the shop pù business was very prosperous.

One night ten years later, the second master suddenly knocked on the door of the store in the second half of the night, Chen Zhengqiu lit the candle and looked at it, and was startled: he saw that his clothes were covered with blood, and he seemed to have suffered internal injuries, and he walked a little swaying.

Chen Zhengqiu asked in surprise: "Second uncle, what happened?" ”

The second master said: "Since the death of the big boss, the brothers have gone out from time to time to rob the money of those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, tonight, we found out that the Yuan dog will loot the property to the capital, filial piety to the dog emperor who is about to flee, to pass by Pingdingshan, I took a dozen brothers to rob them, and the Yuan army to fight, both sides have casualties, and then the little leader saw that the enemy could not be us, so he gave up his property and fled!" ”

Chen Zhengqiu asked, "What are they transporting?" ”

The second master replied: "At first, we also thought it was jewelry or something, but when we opened it, we were also stunned, it turned out that it was all gold bars, as many as 50,000 taels!" ”

Chen Zhengqiu asked: "Later, did these things be transported back to the cottage?" ”

The second master said: "No, such a large amount of wealth, we dare not take it for ourselves, we want to let these ill-gotten gains play its due role, so we hid it in an unknown cave in Pingdingshan, and moved a lot of big stones to stuff the entrance of the cave, three or two people can't move at all." All seven of us swore a poisonous oath, whoever dares to fight the idea of this batch of gold will be hit by five thunders from the sky, and will not die well! ”

Chen Zhengqiu asked, "Then what do you want this wealth to be used for?" ”

The second master said: "It is used in the most meaningful event, and it is not in vain for us to kill it, but now it cannot be used, because at this time it is the time when Yuangou is about to flee, and it must be strictly investigated, once the news is leaked, it will definitely be in trouble!" ”

Chen Zhengqiu asked, "Why did the second uncle sue me about this?" ”

The second master said: "After discussion, the brothers decided to hand over this batch of treasures to you for safekeeping, because they think that you are knowledgeable and knowledgeable, know what is the most meaningful event, you are the most worthy of our trust, and we are most assured to hand it over to you for safekeeping!" ”

Chen Zhengqiu hugged his fists and said: "Thank you second uncle and brothers, I will never live up to everyone's high expectations!" ”

The second master said: "Please take out the four treasures of the study, and wait for me to draw a treasure map for you, so that you can find it when you need it in the future!" ”

Chen Zhengqiu went inside and took a piece of yellow silk, and the second master used a pen to draw the location of the treasure cave, which became a treasure map that everyone wanted.

After finishing the painting, the second master said: "Our seven brothers decided to go away to avoid the pursuit of the Yuan soldiers, and we don't want to involve the brothers who have reformed in the cottage!" ”

After saying that, he hurried out of the house, and left his hometown with those brothers, and since then he has been like a yellow crane and has not heard from him.

The next day, Chen Zhengqiu asked people to build an exquisite brocade box, put the treasure map inside, and hid it in the most hidden place.

Ten years later, the Yuan Dynasty fell, and Zhu Yuanzhang sat firmly in the country, and no one knew about it.

Later, Chen Zhengqiu passed this treasure map to his son Chen Zhengdao, and continued to operate the daily necessities store on North Street in Yulin Town.

Who knows, the secret organization of the king of Lingnan knew about it, but they didn't know whose hands the treasure map was, so they came up with a poisonous plan to throw stones and ask for directions, and come up with a "praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind", so that everyone fought for this treasure map.

Chen Zhengdao's two husbands and wives were killed, but the son escaped through the back door and avoided this catastrophe, fortunately, the Chen family still has someone to inherit the incense, so as not to cut off the children and grandchildren, and the treasure map will not sink into the sea, it will always become a mystery.

Fang Lei suddenly remembered: Chen Zhengdao and his wife also had a fifteen or sixteen-year-old son, who escaped this catastrophe, and hurriedly said to the three girls: "We should try our best to find the son of the couple on North Street and protect it tightly, so as to prevent the thieves from torture him to extract a confession in order to get the treasure map, or force him to find out the truth, become angry and kill him."

Xia He said: "Who doesn't understand this truth? But where are the people going to find their sons? ”

Hong Xi'er said: "That day, Dibao said that he knew the son of the two couples, and there was a very conspicuous red mole on the back of his neck, and now, the people from the town office also sent a messenger, led by Dibao, to find his whereabouts everywhere in Yulin Town!" ”

Fang Lei sneered: "This class of officials, there are not enough successes, and there are more failures, let's not have any illusions about him!" ”

Xia He said: "They are looking for them, we are looking for us, don't rely on them alone!" ”

Fang Lei said helplessly: "There is only this way!" ”

Will this work?
