Madam Niu was originally talking to his brother in the family, but after hearing someone call him like that, he quickly walked over.

Before she could say anything, Lu Daquan and Madam Luo had already yelled excitedly, "Keep digging, quickly dig it out and see what it is!"

The story of the treasure being dug out from the ground had only existed in legends. When had the villagers ever seen a real event? At this moment, all of them were extremely excited as they picked up their hoes and shovels and followed the traces left behind by the box.

"So heavy!" The few villagers moved together, and with a great deal of effort, they managed to carry the box up.

"There are more boxes below!" As soon as the box was brought up, a sharp-eyed man shouted.

When the Madam Niu and Lu Daquan couple heard this, they looked over to see that there were still a few boxes at the empty area of the box that had already been carried out.

"Hurry up and dig. If you find something good, I'll reward you for it!" Lu Daquan's face was full of excitement as he waved to greet them.

Hearing that there was a reward, the village helpers worked even harder. They were all grown men and worked hard. In a short while, they had already dug out all the boxes buried under the ground.

There were a total of twelve large boxes lined up in a row. Everyone's eyes immediately widened.

"What exactly is inside?"

The villagers were discussing animatedly, and Lu Daquan called out to the Lu family's brothers impatiently: "Bring the axes here, chop this lock and take a look!"

"Wait." The Madam Niu hurriedly came over and said to Lu Daquan in a low voice: "It's obvious that this is a good thing, we can't reveal the wealth we have here. Let's move it back and open it."

"Why do we have to move them back? They already saw so many boxes. Rather than letting them make wild guesses, we might as well broaden their horizons!" Lu Daquan straightforwardly waved his hand, "Break open all the locks on the chests for me, and if there is anything good, we will all get to see it!"

The helper and the surrounding villagers cheered. The axe with the axe, the hoe with the hoe, and the three smelly smiths had all come to life. Before long, all twelve locks had been broken. Lu Daquan took a deep breath, then ordered the villagers beside the boxes: "Open!"

The 12 heavy boxes were lined up, they were originally very suspenseful, but with Lu Daquan's order, everyone could not wait to open them.

In that instant, under the gloomy sky, a dazzling golden light nearly blinded everyone's eyes.

When the golden light flashed, everyone turned around to look and immediately gasped. Their eyes were all glazed — —

The ten large boxes were actually filled with gold the size of a grown man's fist!

Not silver, not copper, but gold!

Most of the villagers in the Apricot Rain Village were born poor. Even those that had lived their entire lives would never have seen gold.

Now that he saw it, it was filled to the brim with ten boxes!

The sound of breathing in water came out one after another. Madam Niu held onto his chest, he was so excited that his eyes turned white, and he directly fainted.

Madam Luo hugged onto Lu Daquan's arm, his eyes stared wide open like a bell. He grabbed a gold ingot and bit it, then muttered: "All of you, am I dreaming?"

Lu Daquan spat at her in disdain, "Look at your useless appearance, you're still dreaming! In your dreams, you'll see so much gold!"

Gold, real gold, glittering gold!

His teeth almost breaking, Madam Luo excitedly hugged Lu Daquan's neck, jumping and jumping, "Master, this is real gold, a genuine gold, we're rich!"

Of course he did, a total of ten chests of gold!

Lu Daquan was also excited, suddenly he felt that something was amiss. "Aren't there twelve chests? Why are there only ten chests of gold? "What about the other two boxes?"

"Here." One of the villagers pointed to a box beside him. "But it's not gold. It's jewelry."

Lu Daquan and Madam Luo hurried over to take a look, and sure enough, it was a jewel. After opening the box, the jewel shone brilliantly, illuminating the faces in front of them.

"Jade Bracelet, Emerald, Earring, Necklace, Golden Steps, Jade hairpin, Jade Ruyi …"

Madam Luo rushed forward to count the treasures in the chest, his eyes almost falling out.

As a woman, she would prefer such beautiful and dazzling items like jewelry to those bulky and unadorned items like gold.

Madam Luo held a pile of jewelry and took a deep breath. He was so happy that he almost fainted.

Lu Daquan was so excited that his entire body was trembling, he ordered the Lu Family's brothers: "Help me count them, look at how much gold there is, my eyes are blurry, I can't see anything."

No one would refuse such a beautiful task like counting money. With so many people, it didn't take long for the value of gold to come out.

One chest of gold for a thousand taels, ten boxes of gold for ten thousand taels, an entire ten thousand taels of gold.

"So many!" Madam Niu had already woken up from being pressed down by someone, upon hearing the price, he almost fainted again while clutching his chest.

"Look at your talent, you don't seem to have seen the world at all!" The brother from Madam Niu scolded.

Madam Niu was in high spirits, he did not care about getting angry with his brother, he pounced on top of the chest, grabbed a handful of gold with his left hand and kissed it again and again, then shouted: "So much gold, my Old Lu family was indeed a good person in my previous life, God gave us so much money!"

Lu Daquan pressed against his chest, and only after a long while did he finally breathe again. He let everyone close the lid of the box and instructed the brawny Lu Family to move the box into the Lu Family's mansion.

Ten thousand taels of gold and two boxes of blinding jewellery. The villagers were so envious of the windfall that their intestines nearly burst.

"Hmph, how could there be such a dropped pie in the sky? To be able to dig so much money out of the ground is definitely not a coincidence." When the surrounding villagers saw this scene, they said in a sour tone, "This house seemed to belong to Lu Jinfeng's family. The gold, silver, and jewelry dug out from beneath the house should all belong to Lu Jinfeng's family!"

"That's right, all of these gold and jewels were dug out from beneath Lu Jinfeng's old house, could it be that Lu Jinfeng's family buried them?" Hearing that someone was jealous, someone from the villagers who was envious spoke up.

"Ha! What nonsense are you talking about? Just that little bastard and that sloppy-footed Madam Li, how could he have any money?!" Hearing that, Madam Niu was immediately displeased, he jumped over and slapped the villager twice, "Who doesn't know how poor their village used to be? If they had the money, my son Lu Dayi would have died. That little bastard Lu Jinfeng almost stepped into the coffin? "

"That's right. Their family used to be so poor that they didn't even have enough to eat. Borrowing a few coins from me to keep them low and quiet, how could they possibly have so much money buried in the ground!?" Madam Luo scolded with a red face and a thick neck, "You two are just jealous that we made a fortune. Let me tell you two, when we send money to everyone, you two will have no share!"

His words were vicious, and those who were still jealous of him wanting to say something bad immediately shut their mouths.

"Those two bastards, how could they be worthy of such good stuff!?" Not to mention the money they buried, so what if they buried it? Right now, the house is mine, and the things they dug under the house are ours! " Madam Niu was still angry, he glared at the surrounding villagers fiercely, "Today I will stop talking, whoever dares to talk back, I will pull their tongue!"

Threats were not just for words. When there was money, she would be rich and she would be able to work as much as she wanted. Naturally, there would be people willing to work for her.

Whose tongue she said she could pull out.

The villagers who were helping the workers on the scene were all adults, so how could they not understand this logic? They quickly agreed.

Only then did Madam Niu raised his head in satisfaction, like a rooster who had just won a battle, and walked back towards his house with his head held high and his chest held high.

Madam Luo hugged the jewels in her arms and waited for Lu Daquan to give her a fierce shove before she stood up reluctantly.

"Hurry up, take them to my house." Lu Daquan commanded. With the money, he felt his waist straightening, and his voice was full of energy.

As soon as Lu Jinfeng returned home, he heard the hubbub of people outside, all talking about how they found ten thousand gold and two big boxes of jewelry in his old house. He asked Madam Li with a baffled look on his face, if he knew the reason.

Madam Li sighed and told him about Lu Dayi's treasure.

"So this gold should be ours?" Chen Ergou asked with a depressed look.

"If we ignore some factors, the money should belong to us." Chen Mu Mu laughed as he spoke.

"Then we'll just take it back. How can we let that family get away with it for nothing!" Chen Ergou said angrily, "I have to go over and get it back!"

"Stupid." Chen Mu Mu rolled her eyes and pulled him back, "Have you seen so much money in your life? If you have 10,000 gold, and others asked for it from you, would you give it to them? "

"Then report it to the officials!" Chen Ergou said angrily, "Those are our property. If Madam Niu and Lu Daquan dare to occupy them, we will report them to the authorities!"

"Who said it was our gold and jewels?" Lu Jinfeng looked at Chen Ergou as if he was looking at an idiot, "Didn't you hear from Chen Mu that after ignoring some important matters, the money could only be ours?"

"What's the difference?" She had always been a slave to money. Upon hearing that a large amount of money that originally belonged to her family had gone missing, Chen Ergou's IQ immediately ran out.

"Yes." Chen Mu Mu smilingly smacked him on the forehead, "That gold and jewels weren't placed by us, which means that it has a master. Only when its master dies or doesn't want it, and when the owner of the house is still us, that money is ours."

The reason why gold and treasures were dug out was definitely because no one claimed them. If no one claimed them, then no one knew who their owner was.

As for the old house, it had no relation to them since the Madam Niu took it back.

Therefore, this amount of money basically had nothing to do with them.

This time, Chen Ergou understood and was even more dejected: "So, you gave Madam Niu's group of despicable people a chance for nothing?"

"There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world, money cannot be revealed. If Lu Daquan and the others were to do it too openly, they would bring disaster upon themselves sooner or later." Chen Mu shook his head, "Seon won't know when to stop, Seon won't know when to stop. That money, how could it be so easy to get?"

"That Madam Niu probably knew that there was something beneath the ground, which was why he went all out to steal our house." Lu Jinfeng's eyes darkened, and said coldly, "If it's really a disaster, then they asked for it!"
