Chapter 54: The Treasure of the Cellar
Seeing that the time was still early, Uncle Fu insisted on staying and dismantling some first, Silly Zhu knew that these real craftsmen saw the craftsmanship of their predecessors, they were always very obsessed, and wanted to ponder and ponder, just like a martial arts person who saw the Nine Yin True Scripture, how could there be anything that he didn't want to learn?
So, Uncle Fu stayed in Baylor Mansion to work, and Silly Zhu left alone. It was not too early or too late, it was too early to go to bed, and it was too late to go to the friendship store, so Silly Zhu went back to the courtyard.
When Silly Zhu returned to the courtyard, He Daqing had just returned from sending Silly Rainwater, and the father and son were in Silly Rain's room, chatting about Silly Zhu's trip to Beiqin Mansion tonight.
He Daqing still remembers that family, only said that the master of that family is very good at being a man, and after the death of the Qing Dynasty, Sijiu City has changed so many masters, and his family is still their "master".
Now that they are ready to go to the south, it seems that this rich and noble family, who has been a "master" in this Sijiu City for more than 300 years, has finally encountered their unfair forces.
He Daqing seemed very happy when he talked about the unfortunate things of that family, it seems that when He Daqing was serving that family, his experience was not pleasant, it should be that the family used to be mean to Comrade Daqing!
Unlike the schadenfreude of Comrade Daqing, Silly Zhu admired the Baylor master's sense of danger and his quick decision.
As a time-traveler in the future, Silly Zhu knows what will happen in the future, and the next ten years will be like tonight's Baylor Lord. People like them, not to mention the things outside their homes in the future, even if they want to die, they are all extravagant hopes, and the real family is ruined, and life is better than death!
The Baylor Lord of that Baylor Mansion can keenly perceive the danger in the current situation. And immediately gave up the network of contacts that his family had established over hundreds of years in these four or nine cities, as well as the fixed assets that his family could not take away. resolutely chose to go south, and this decision is by no means something ordinary people can have.
Not to mention anything else, compare Lou Xiao'e's father, you will know how strong that Belle Lord is.
Lou Xiao'e's father, with his ability to create a big business in decades of troubled times, will he not feel the danger of his Lou family in the current situation?
But in the poultry drama, Lou's father suffered a lot until he was caught in the dictatorship. In the end, after the stupid pig relationship got him out, he finally made up his mind to go south with his family.
Why was Father Lou so hesitant? To put it bluntly, Lou's father is reluctant to share in his factories and his family's villas. In the face of danger, Lou's father still has a fluke mentality, and feels that feeding some people with a little blood may be able to resolve the danger of his family.
Lou Xiao'e's father fled south with his family in a hurry until the mountains and rivers were exhausted and there was no way out. And the Baylor Mansion where Silly Zhu went tonight, his family members decisively gave up those things outside his body and left with the whole family before the danger came. From this, it can be seen that Lord Belle is much more courageous and wiser than Lou Xiao'e's father.
After admiring the Lord Belle who had never met before, Silly Zhu discussed a more realistic problem with He Daqing, that is, how to hide things after they were brought back?
The two fathers and sons discussed it, and said that those who were inconvenient to show others should be dismantled and thrown under the bed or found a large cabinet to store in a centralized manner. And those porcelain, the father and son decided to bury it in their own vegetable cellar.
The idea was agreed, He Daqing relied on He Yushui's room on the grounds that he was old and frail, and he also had to look at the wood at home, so he didn't leave, and let Silly Zhu go to the vegetable cellar to dig a pit by himself.
Facing He Daqing, who was like a dog, Silly Zhu had no way at all. Resigned to his fate, he took a shovel that shoveled snow in the winter at home, flashed a flashlight, and went to his vegetable cellar in the backyard.
The vegetable cellar of the Silly Zhu's family in the backyard is under a utility room, and this utility room and vegetable cellar are also part of He Daqing's 200 oceans.
This vegetable cellar is the vegetable cellar of the original owner of this courtyard in the old days, which is large and deep. The utility room covered above is more than 20 square meters, and the vegetable cellar under it is nearly three meters underground.
The vegetable cellar itself is more than five meters long, more than three meters wide, about two meters high, the whole space is more than 30 cubic meters, it is the old time for the owner and maid of this courtyard, the small house, the courtyard, the whole family for a winter vegetable storage place.
Silly Zhu opened the utility room with the key, and after entering with a flashlight, he reflexively bolted the door again. Went inside and opened the lid of the vegetable cellar, and the stupid pillar went down to the vegetable cellar.
The original owner of this vegetable cellar has been repaired very carefully, there are special stone steps to go down, the bottom of the vegetable cellar is paved with large bluestone slabs, and the four walls are also made of green bricks into brick walls, and the top of the vegetable cellar is framed by thick wooden boards.
Coming to a corner of the vegetable cellar, Silly Zhu put the flashlight on a vegetable shelf that could shine into this corner. Then he began to work with the light of the flashlight, first of all, he had to move a few bluestone slabs. Each of these bluestone slabs is about half a square meter, but because it is not an auxiliary road, there is no need to run cars and horses, so these bluestone slabs are not thick, and the stupid pillar can move it with its own strength.
After removing a few bluestone slabs, Silly Zhu took a shovel and began to dig down. The machine repeats the same action, and the stupid pillar doesn't know how long it has been digging, but it is almost about a meter down! The shovel of the stupid pillar couldn't be stepped on, and it seemed to have hit something hard.
The silly pillar carefully cleaned up the soil little by little along the hard object, and soon what appeared in front of the silly pillar was a wine jar with a mud seal on it.
The Celestial Empire has had the habit of burying wine since ancient times, is the wine old and fragrant! Seeing the mud-sealed wine jar, the stupid pillar thought that it was the wine buried by the owner of this courtyard in the past, but I don't know how many years this wine has been buried here, and can it still be drunk?
The silly pillar cleaned the dirt along the walls of the jar, and soon half of the jar was exposed. Silly Zhu learned from Lu Zhishen to pull out the weeping willow and pulled out the entire wine jar.
When the whole wine jar came, what Silly Zhu heard was not the sound of wine swaying, but the crisp sound of hard objects hitting the walls of the wine jar.
The wine jar is not filled with wine, and for the first time, Silly Zhu thought of the documentaries of treasure hunting and treasure hunting that he watched in later generations, and there was a word that appeared in Silly Zhu's mind at this time, that is, "cellar treasure".
The thirst for wealth made Silly Zhu quickly lower the jar on the bluestone slab floor, and then he climbed up from the pit he had dug.
Bringing the flashlight closer, the stupid pillar patted the mud seal on the wine jar, then turned the wine jar sideways, poured the contents one by one to the mouth of the wine jar, and then he took the things one by one with his hands and put them on the bluestone slab ground.
There aren't many things, but there are more than a dozen! The first thing that attracted the attention of the silly pillar was a pair of "Lord Wei" pure gold bowls, and the silly pillar picked up one of the golden bowls to see, only to see that the golden bowl was a clump of flowers, and among those flowers was a peacock flying there, which was very beautiful.
The bottom center of this golden bowl is engraved with a tiger, and two lines of characters are engraved on both sides of the bottom of the bowl, which of course are not simplified, but like traditional characters.
Although Silly Zhu was born under the red flag and grew up under the red flag, it was simplified Chinese since elementary school. However, with his limited knowledge, Silly Zhu still recognized the words "March of the twentieth year of Zhenguan", which means March of the twentieth year of Zhenguan.
An adult of the Celestial Empire, as long as he is not an idiot, I am afraid that he will not know what the word "Zhenguan" means.
There is such an exact date, it seems that this golden bowl was made in March of the twentieth year of Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty. Think about it again, those who can use the golden bowl cannot be ordinary people in any era, so could this pair of golden bowls be the "Heavenly Khan" himself? Silly Zhu thought wildly.
Reluctantly putting down the golden bowl, Silly Zhu picked up a golden pot with a horse on it. The horse was dressed in ribbons, fat, and had four small short legs.
This horse is absolutely beautiful in the mouths of those so-called experts, but in the eyes of Silly Zhu, this horse is short, fat, and ugly.
Lazy to look at the ugly horse, the stupid pillar opened the lid of the jar, only to see a layer of gold leaf on top of the jar. Silly Zhu lifted the gold leaf, saw that the gold leaf was stuffed with silk, and pulled out the silk, and soon Silly Zhu found a large ball of silk wrapped in a small hard object.
It can be placed in a gold pot, and it is protected by a large ball of silk, although this thing is small, but it must be a valuable object, at least more valuable than this gold pot ugly horse. Thinking of these, Silly Zhu was extremely expectant, and went to peel off the silk wrapped in the little thing layer by layer.
