Chapter 50: Treasure
Lan Xiaoqiu traveled to the present, but found that there was a foodie since ancient times. Even the ancient foodie is comparable to the modern foodie, she slowly began to like her profession, I believe that under the new sky of the Qi Dynasty, she will be able to play her own piece of the sky, who said that ancient women are not as good as men? Lan Xiaoqiu believes that he must be a popular character among foodies, maybe a celebrity will be crowned a god chef through the ages, and then he will have no regrets in this life.
The ships searching for the Taihe are really large, and there are hundreds of wooden boxes alone, which are estimated to be used to carry valuable treasures.
Fang Hao was assigned to the salvage team, while Lan Xiaoqiu was assigned to the cook's team, which was also expected by the two.
But what I never expected was that the two of them were divided into the same bed, to say that the difference in the number of people originally recruited was one person, so Fang Hao's arrival filled the last vacancy, plus Lan Xiaoqiu was personally ordered by Qingcheng, this bed was very tight. The person who arranged the bed said, "Anyway, you are also brothers, so let's squeeze into a bed, Ah Han is also thin, and he can't take up much space." ”
"What, no matter how thin I am, I'm still human." Lan Xiaoqiu was packing up his things on the bed made of wooden planks, Fang Hao was watching from the side, and Lan Xiaoqiu put the pillow in the center: "This is mine." ”
Okay, Lan Xiaoqiu rushed in just now to grab the land. In other words, the crew's rooms are all partitioned, each partition is a bed, and the curtain is drawn in front of the bed, so no one can see anyone, but Lan Xiaoqiu and Fang Hao are the only ones who want to squeeze into this small partition.
Fang Haodao didn't have the same knowledge as her: "There is still a place outside the cabin, I sleep there." ”
Lan Xiaoqiu was still proud, but when he really saw that he had driven Fang Hao away, he didn't feel good in his heart. But what's the solution? After all, she is a woman, is it difficult for Fang Hao to sleep with her arms in her arms? It's strange that he can sleep, so sacrificing Fang Hao and giving Lan Xiaoqiu a sweet dream for one night, in Lan Xiaoqiu's opinion, he passed with peace of mind.
Fang Hao only put his clothes at the head of Lan Xiaoqiu's bed, and he really went to the deck to find a place, although it was a little simple, it could also shelter from the wind and rain.
As the big ship left the dock, Lan Xiaoqiu's excitement drifted with the big ship, and in the near future, he would be able to see the treasures, which was simply a legend for Lan Xiaoqiu.
The big ship traveled for three days, and finally came to the site of the Taihe wreck at that time, there was indeed a reef around, it is said that the fog on the sea that day and the ship's helmsman was eager to flee, and the big ship hit the reef, and fifty lives plus a ship's treasure slept at the bottom of the sea for more than 30 years.
Laying nets, subscripting, soon, everyone put into the intense salvage, and there is a good water to dive into the bottom to observe the situation.
And Lan Xiaoqiu is mainly responsible for making pastries, of course, this pastry is only made for Qingcheng, these days, Lan Xiaoqiu has seen a mysterious person in Qingcheng's room, he is with Qingcheng every day, Qingcheng is very respectful to him.
Finally, with a loud bang on the deck, the first batch of treasures was salvaged, and all the crew members surrounded the city, looking at the damp treasure chest, and everyone was extremely excited.
Qingcheng opened the treasure chest, under the light of the sun, the treasures inside were indeed dazzling, yellow, white, and emerald green, and they did not lose their luster because of years of soaking, everyone cheered, but this is only the tip of the iceberg, and the salvage is still going on.
Fang Hao and Lan Xiaoqiu recorded the treasures they saw one after another and made a list by themselves.
On that day, Lan Xiaoqiu never dreamed of it, boxes of gold, silver and jewelry were lifted to the deck, she would never see so many treasures in her life, and the ship was slowly sinking because of the baggage, so many treasures were afraid that the treasury would burst.
Qingcheng didn't seem to move, he carefully counted the treasures, and followed the mysterious man all the time.
On the third day of salvage, a box of treasures caught Fang Hao's attention, he saw that Qingcheng seemed to have received some guidance from the mysterious person, so he took something out of the box and secretly stuffed it into his cuffs, and the mysterious man's face also floated a trace of excitement.
According to Qingcheng's posture of putting it into the cuffs, things should not be big or heavy, Lan Xiaoqiu also saw it, she said: "It's been salvaged for so many days, and it's understandable to take the sheep with him, maybe the things he took are a drop in the bucket, and they are not stolen by boxes." ”
"It's certainly not that simple, I think it must be worth a fortune, maybe more precious than all the treasures." Fang Hao guessed.
Lan Xiaoqiu still didn't think so, thinking: Only one can be precious to the sky?
But Fang Hao kept this matter in mind until the salvage was completely completed, and these treasures were indeed a hundred boxes, one by one gathered in the cabin, and heavy guards were arranged to prevent anyone from approaching, except for routine inspections, Qingcheng did not have any movements. Instead, he kept himself locked in the house and didn't go out much.
Fang Hao told Lan Xiaoqiu to pay attention to observation, and Lan Xiaoqiu didn't dare to slack off, so he took the opportunity to send fruit cakes and eavesdropped on his ears.
Sure enough, when the ship was about to arrive at the dock, Lan Xiaoqiu said to Fang Hao: "They really have a secret. I heard the mysterious man say, 'With this, we can find the real treasure.'" 'Aren't these treasures?' ”
Fang Hao frowned and thought for a while: "The prime minister back then was very cunning, he must not have loaded the treasure in only one place, maybe there were other ships. ”
"But these treasures are big enough." Lan Xiaoqiu's woman's view.
"But if someone has the treasure of the rich country, then the Great Apocalypse is in danger, a person who is richer than the country, naturally wants to occupy the country, he can use these treasures to buy weapons, buy people's hearts, and buy all the things in the world that can be bought, and then the Great Apocalypse will not be at his fingertips?" Fang Hao analyzed, this is also what Qixuan and the emperor are worried about.
Lan Xiaoqiu nodded: "But we haven't seen such a little thing, how can we make a conclusion?" And even if you want to denounce them, you have to have evidence, people bring back a boatload of treasures slowly, and you have to suspect people, even if the ministers know, the people will talk about it, and when the time comes, it will say that the emperor can't tolerate sand in his eyes, and he will take revenge and not leave a reputation for eternity? ”
Fang Hao clapped his hands: "Lan Xiaoqiu, you have really become smarter." ”
Lan Xiaoqiu pointed to his nose and said disdainfully: "And, do you still need to change?" It's already smart. These things are played out every day on TV. “
"TV? What is TV? Fang Hao said curiously.
"Well, a storyteller from my hometown." Lan Xiaoqiu could only explain it like this.
Fang Hao said: "We have to get that thing before we dock." Even if you can't get your hands on it, you have to know the secrets inside. ”
Lan Xiaoqiu gasped: "Aren't we spying on them?" Why steal something? ”
"It's not stealing, it's looking for evidence, otherwise how can we explain to the prince?"
"Fang Hao, you don't have to be so serious, right? I used to see you hanging on your shoulders, why have you become so serious now, I don't seem to know you anymore. Lan Xiaoqiu thought of the Fang Hao in the hotel, and the uninhibited eldest son of the Fang family who loved to climb over other people's walls, they didn't seem to be as serious as they are now.
"You never knew me, you never seemed to know." Fang Hao's words made Lan Xiaoqiu roll his eyes angrily. Lan Xiaoqiu thought to herself: Yes, I don't seem to know him very well.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Lan Xiaoqiu also agreed with the reason of catching thieves and taking stolen goods, but the two of them never knew what Qingcheng took from the box that day.
The rain was pouring down, and the weather was not beautiful, but the night before I was about to dock, it suddenly rained heavily.
"Do you want to come in and hide?" Lan Xiaoqiu wore a hat and saw that Fang Hao, who was resting on the deck, was already soaked.
Fang Hao was speechless, his face was covered with rain and a flushed face, which made Lan Xiaoqiu feel too bad: "Are you sick?" ”
Fang Hao fell on the deck with Lan Xiaoqiu's shaking: "Come on, someone fainted." ”
Everyone rushed out of the deck, because everyone was very alert before the shore, so they all rushed out to see if there was a little trouble.
"My brother is sick and has a fever." Lan Xiaoqiu touched Fang Hao's hot forehead and became worried.
Qingcheng was standing beside Fang Hao with an umbrella, and there was no one on the boat, Fang Hao was soaked, and the mysterious person around Qingcheng also appeared, he walked to Fang Hao and touched Fang Hao's hand: "Ask the cook to stew some ginger soup for him to get rid of the cold." ”
And it was that action, but it caught Lan Xiaoqiu's attention, only to see that the mysterious man was helped up by Qingcheng, and his eyes seemed to be difficult to focus, Lan Xiaoqiu concluded that this person was blind.
Lan Xiaoqiu thought that when Qingcheng took something from the treasure chest that day, the blind man couldn't see it, why could the blind man conclude that there was a treasure that Qingcheng needed inside? This made Lan Xiaoqiu think of what happened when his master trained him, at that time, Lan Xiaoqiu didn't have a good grasp of the heat, and he saw that things were so burnt.
The master told her that there was a way, and that was to smell it, and once the thing had a fragrance, it meant that the heat was almost over. But Lan Xiaoqiu's nose was not sensitive at all, and he still believed in the extent of what his eyes saw.
The master blindfolded her and trained Lan Xiaoqiu's sense of smell according to the levels of raw, cooked, crispy, and burnt.
Sure enough, after blindfolding, Lan Xiaoqiu's sense of smell was particularly sensitive, and she could determine the degree of heating of the pastry through her sense of smell.
Lan Xiaoqiu recalled carefully, like a movie, she not only played back what she saw, but also what she smelled, in addition to the damp fishy smell that day, she also smelled a faint fragrance of tea.
Lan Xiaoqiu looked at Fang Hao, who was unconscious: "I seem to know what it is, I remember seeing it when I went to Qingcheng's room." ”
Lan Xiaoqiu left Fang Hao, but saw Fang Hao's hand tremble slightly.
Lan Xiaoqiu quietly came to the door of Qingcheng, there was no one inside, she slowly pushed the door open, and hurriedly flashed into the crack in the door.
I saw that thing at a glance, it was very inconspicuously placed on the table, and it seemed that Qingcheng felt that no one would doubt it......
