Chapter 15: The Search for the Ancient House
Qi Lu asked: "The house number of this old house is 478?" ”
Lao Wu nodded and said, "But this house has been demolished for decades." ”
"Why?"
"That's a long story." Lao Wu told the two of them eloquently.
It turned out that the place was an ancient village that existed in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and this private house was built in the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty and was the private residence of a local wealthy man. By the time of the Republic of China, the descendants had already declined and were bought by another merchant who had moved to the city.
On the eve of the liberation of the city, the businessman moved his family to Hong Kong because he was afraid that he would be liquidated by the government after the founding of New China. At that time, people did not have the awareness of cultural relics protection, and the house was converted into a commune canteen by the local production team.
After a few decades, the people of the village fell ill with a strange disease. This could alarm the local government, fearing that the class enemy was retaliating, but after the public security bureau opened a case and investigated, there were no clues, and finally a medical professor accidentally discovered that the water source around the village was polluted.
The source of the water pollution could not be identified, so the government moved the villagers to another place and demolished all the houses in the village to make way for a new village, razing the area to the ground.
Later, some people wanted to open up wasteland for farming on this vacant land, but found that it was a saline-alkali land that was not suitable for crops to grow, so this place gradually became a wasteland, and no one has cared about it to this day.
After listening to Lao Wu's statement, Qi Lu couldn't help frowning and said, "It seems that there is no treasure in this place at all. ”
"Why do you say that?" Ding Xiaolan didn't believe it.
"Think about it, I don't know how many people live in that house since the Qing Dynasty, and after the liberation, the government demolished all the houses, if there is a treasure underground, after so many tosses, it has already been discovered, how can it be our turn to make a fortune."
"Maybe this treasure is buried by the ancestors of the villagers and kept it secret, plus it is buried very deeply, so it is normal for no one to know."
Qi Lu shook his head disapprenorantly and said: "This is just a businessman's private house, and he can't be a huge rich man like Hu Xueyan, even if there are things buried in the house, at most some gold and silver money, it can't be called a treasure." ”
Just when Qi Lu wanted to give up, Lao Wu's words caught his attention.
"I've done my research, and this private house was built by a businessman surnamed Xu."
"What, you said this house is the ancestral house of the Xu family?" Qi Lu couldn't help but be surprised.
Ding Xiaolan hurriedly answered: "How can there be such a coincidence, maybe Xu Jingqiao is their descendant, and his ancestors gave him a dream." ”
Lao Wu continued: "There is an even more coincidental thing, the merchant who bought the residence in the Republic of China is also surnamed Xu. ”
"I'll just say there's something weird about this house, and there must be treasure in the ground." Ding Xiaolan suddenly smiled.
"It's really weird, it's not like a simple coincidence." Qi Lu is also a little unsettled.
Ding Xiaolan struck while the iron was hot and said, "Let's go, let's go to that place and have a look, maybe there will be unexpected gains." ”
Qi Lu glanced at the dark night sky outside the house, looked back and smiled, "It's so dark, even if you go, you can see anything." Let's rest early today, and we'll leave for that place tomorrow. ”
Early the next morning, Ding Xiaolan came to the Kunlun office early, urging Qi Lu and Lao Wu to leave early. Arrogance
Qi Lu smiled bitterly, and had to let Lao Wu drive them to the wasteland.
This is indeed a desolate and barren land, some broken bricks and tiles loom in the messy weeds, looking at this ruined ancient village, Qi Lu asked Lao Wu: "Where is the specific location of that ancient house?" ”
Lao Wu said angrily: "This is desolate, how do I know where it is." ”
Ding Xiaolan proposed: "Then let's look for it." ”
"I'm afraid it's hard to find." Qi Lu frowned. "Old Wu, do you have any clues?"
"The house has been completely demolished, where are there any clues."
Qi Lu asked: "The house number of this old house is 478?" ”
Lao Wu nodded and said, "But this house has been demolished for decades." ”
"Why?"
