Chapter Seventy-Four: There Are Really Hidden Treasures!
Zhu Yu wiped his hands clean and carefully flipped through the materials.
An old book, no longer covered and unrecognizable.
There are several photographs in the old book, and the main character of the photo is a military man. There are formal photos of people wearing formal dresses, and there are also side photos of people holding sabers on the battlefield and inspecting the front line.
Zhu Yu took out his mobile phone and checked it, according to the military uniform, the preliminary estimate should be before World War I, that is, at the beginning of the last century, in the 190s, or even further, at the end of the nineteenth century.
If the photographs can find the descendants of the soldier, they should be able to get a payment.
Then, Zhu Yu flipped through a piece of paper in the book, on which a rough map was drawn by hand, indicating three locations. Words are written underneath all three positions.
Weapons, gold, supplies.
Zhu Yu looked at it and felt very familiar, and then immediately took out the black and white photo for comparison.
Soon, according to the terrain on the photo and the location of the main building of the manor, Zhu Yu locked the location of the three key circles, not far from the front of the courtyard, in the current farmland!
Seeing Zhu Yu's movements, Meng Xiaofan and Song Yan both guessed it, and the two looked at each other in shock.
Did Zhu Yu really find the treasure?
Zhu Yu put away the book and the photo, and reached into the cabinet again, but this time he didn't take out anything.
He instructed Jason:
"Keep this cupboard. Now you take the garbage out of the car and dispose of it. ”
Then he said to Meng Xiaofan:
"I'll look for it later, and if I do find the treasure, please call Mr. George and explain, it's best if he can come and have a look."
After all, the treasure has been found, and there are two more copies in it that belong to him.
Meng Xiaofan nodded, already shocked and didn't know what to say.
She introduced this job to Zhu Yu, mainly because she inquired, most treasure hunters are not as good as they imagined, and it is the norm to not make money or even lose money.
There are definitely very few people who can make a lot of money!
So this thousand dollars a day is already a very good job.
She really didn't expect Zhu Yu to really find the treasure map!
What an unexpected surprise!
Zhu Yu walked through the forest with the photo in one hand and the paper in the other, and began to look for the three points.
Of course, on the surface, he has already begun to look for the eye of the sky, looking underground.
This was the first time Zhu Yu had seen something underground with the eyes of heaven.
According to his estimates, if you look directly at the ground, if you look at the soil, you can see through it to a depth of about 10 meters. If it's rocky, maybe three or five meters.
But it's enough.
The farmland is very large, and the manor and woods have also changed a lot, and Zhu Yu has been comparing them for a while, but he has not yet determined the location.
Meng Xiaofan and Song Yan had been following him, and seeing that Zhu Yu's expression was a little dignified at this time, Meng Xiaofan couldn't help but say:
"Can't find it? Need Uncle George to come over and help? ”
"That's not necessary." Zhu Yu shook his head, "The location can be determined approximately, but you need to dig here, and you have to get Mr. George's consent." ”
Tianyan's scanning was very convenient, he had already determined the location of a treasure spot, and there were two large iron barrels buried more than a meter deep below, inside which were eight Winchester M1887 shotguns wrapped tightly in oilcloth, and two tightly packed iron box bullets.
It is much easier to determine the location of one treasure spot and then deduce the location of the other two points based on the treasure map.
Zhu Yu first found the location where the gold coins were hidden—after all, gold coins were more attractive than supplies, no matter what. Besides, after more than 100 years, who knows if it can still be used?
The treasure collector did not disappoint Zhu Yu, and there were also two iron buckets where the gold coins were hidden—but in an iron bucket nearly one meter high, there was only one iron box that was almost twenty centimeters square.
There were about a hundred gold coins and more than two hundred silver coins in the iron box.
It's not a big fortune.
Zhu Yu was surprised in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface.
I found a stick to mark the place, deliberately about half a meter away from the iron bucket, and then went to find the third point.
There are two iron drums at the third point, and the storage inside is actually an early iron box can, and it seems that it is not broken?
Well, Zhu Yu doesn't know if it's bad or not, but the iron bucket is basically sealed, which is considered to be isolated from the air, and the can itself is also sealed, so it's possible that it's really not bad?
Meng Xiaofan walked over quickly and said:
"Uncle George said, let's dig first, he'll be back soon!"
Then dig it!
Zhu Yu found a shovel from the warehouse and dug it.
The first to be dug up were the two iron drums where the Winchester guns were stored.
By the time the bucket was cleared, George had arrived.
Meng Xiaofan and Song Yan were very curious when they saw the iron bucket being dug out.
George was also very surprised to see the iron bucket, and he laughed and said:
"Zhu, you are a real treasure hunter! I really didn't expect you to find the treasure buried by the original owner of this manor! ”
"Then trouble Mr. George to turn it on!" Zhu Yu stretched out his hand and handed the crowbar that Jason had already returned, to George.
George understood Zhu Yu's kindness, and felt that this young man was very good!
Zhu Yu took out his mobile phone and took a few photos at the right time when George pried open the iron bucket.
"Zhu, you are very understanding!" George pried open the iron bucket and didn't immediately look at the contents inside, but said to Zhu Yu: "Please give me a copy of the photo later!" ”
Zhu Yu's original intention was to take a souvenir for George, after all, people only need 20% of the income, right?
George finished speaking, and then began to take things from the bucket.
Eight well-preserved Winchesters, George untied the tarpaulin and saw it, and was overjoyed:
"I want two! This shot is so exciting! It's rare to see Winchester so well preserved! ”
It's almost a new gun. Or rather, a new gun in itself.
The sun was already setting in the west, Zhu Yu said to George, and went to dig a second treasure spot with Jason and the others.
Meng Xiaofan and Song Yan immediately followed.
They weren't interested in guns, but mostly in gold - women, like dragons, had no resistance to shiny things.
Jason and Malawi dug down almost a meter along the place where Zhu Yubiao was, and there was nothing. Zhu Yu, who was clearing the soil with Eli next to him, said:
"Dig in both sides with a shovel and take a look."
He said with some regret: "I knew I would bring a metal detector here." ”
Jason was ordered to shovel dirt on both sides at the bottom of the pit, and Malawi was helping.
Soon, the Malawian shovel shoveled a hard thing.
The sound of "dang" shocked the hearts of several people above!
There's something!
Jason also heard the sound and immediately turned around and dug there with Malawi.
Soon, the corner of the bucket was revealed.
The person above immediately showed an excited expression! There is an iron bucket, which means that the treasure is inside!
The next digging speed up a lot, and after more than twenty minutes, the entire iron bucket was pulled out.
Zhu Yu and the others worked together to lift the iron bucket to the ground, and then.
George laughed and said:
"Now it's time to witness the miracle!"
