The old Chinese doctor in the courtyard

Chapter 338

Letting Du Jiaoyang hold the lantern, Li Shengli followed the traces of the cabinet's original movement and began to exert force.

The heavy-looking cabinet was pulled open with little effort, and what appeared in front of the two of them was a somewhat rusty iron door.

Looking at the cabinet again, the connection with the mountain is an iron shaft that runs through it. There is also crusted butter on it, so it is not difficult to open the cabinet outside.

"Old Li, there won't be any traps, right?"

Looking at the dark iron door under the light, Du Jiaoyang always felt eerie, thinking of some secret agents' methods, fearing that there were booby traps or landmines behind the door.

"Have you heard too many stories?
This is your own home, who would set a trap in the secret room of your own home?

If you set up a landmine or a booby trap, you're afraid that your own family members will be killed as well. "

Following the female bastard's train of thought, he despised her imagination, but when he pushed the door open, Li Shengli cautiously used the handle of a pickaxe to gently push the iron door open.

"Let's go out for a while and get some air before coming in. If the secret room is kept closed for a long time, there will be mold.

This house is not small, and the quality is not low. Maybe there will be something outside. "

Seeing that Baobao opened the door in front of her, but could not check it immediately, Du Jiaoyang regretfully held up the lantern to shine it. Unfortunately, the light of the lantern could not illuminate the secret room clearly, so she could only sigh helplessly and exit the cave.

After coming out, Li Shengli went all the way back to the room and began to pretend to use a pickaxe to knock bricks on the ground.

"Jiaoyang, the sound here is different, there may be a treasure."

Li Shengli didn't notice any difference in the voice, except that it now coincided with a point on the treasure map.

"Lao Li, you feel so good, I didn't even notice any difference."

Accepting the female gangster's compliment with a bit of shame, Li Shengli took a closer look at the floor tiles, and there was something really different about them.

The ground floor of this villa is paved with gold bricks similar to those in the palace. Paving with tight seams is a basic requirement. Let alone a bayonet, it is necessary to get a needle, whether it can be inserted or not.

The side of the floor tiles in front of the bed, which is close to the bed, is obviously a little scratchy after taking it. It is obvious that the gap was filled later and was just dyed with black stuff. It is difficult to see without using it.

"Jiaoyang, you see there is a gap here. It should have been a place for footrests before. This is really a good place to hide things."

After taking a rough look at the location, I didn't know where the footrest of the canopy bed was. If the footrest was here, the things under the floor tiles would be relatively hidden.

"It's true. Open it quickly and take a look. I didn't enter the secret room just now, which made me happy for nothing."

Treasure hunting is a joy for everyone. Seeing that this job could bring the two of them closer, Li Shengli took out his bayonet and started cleaning up the gaps in the floor tiles.

After a while, the filling in the gap was completely cleaned up, and with a pry with an engineering pick, the entire gold brick was lifted up, revealing a small square space below.

Looking at the dark things inside, Li Shengli felt a little familiar.

Putting down the gold brick in his hand, he tentatively took the dark square object. The outer layer of oil paper broke with his hand, revealing the still dark oil cloth.

With the oil paper protection on the outside, although the oilcloth was somewhat worn and hard, Li Shengli could tell that it was oilcloth.

This thing is almost the same as the outer packaging of the big gold brick in the field. When the brittle oilcloth is broken into pieces, there is still a layer of dark brown oil paper inside.

He twirled his oily fingers and smelled it again. The oil paper should have been greased with butter, or the kind used by the military, because a few days ago, Li Shengli smelled it when he was looking at the Type [-] carbine in the mountain village. This taste.

Under the complete oil paper, there is another layer of oil cloth. This time it is not black, but also dark brown like the oil paper.

It's just that it took too long, and it became as hard as the outer oilcloth, but it was still somewhat tough.

Opening the oilcloth, there was a green bullet box with an oily sheen inside. This thing was rare because it was an enemy style steel bullet box.

"Jiaoyang, the original owner of the other courtyard, I'm afraid it has something to do with the national uniform.

Looking at the packaging, I'm afraid it was something that was hidden only after sufficient preparation.

I feel that the things inside are not the things left here when we retreated south, but the family property that was secretly hidden when the gold coupons were exchanged for gold, silver, and US dollars.

Judging from the style of the house, most of the original owners of the other courtyard had studied abroad and worked in the banking system. Only such people could truly distinguish the difference between gold coupons and gold.

This is a person who can clearly see the relationship of interests. Unfortunately, bad luck, he has the ability to hide things, but he does not have the time to get things out, or perhaps this person encountered something unexpected after hiding the things.

The contents of the steel bullet box were mostly large and small yellow croakers, silver dollars and US dollars. "

Seeing that Mr. Li Shengli was guessing what was in the box without opening it, Du Jiaoyang squatted down curiously, looked carefully at the oil-stained steel bullet box, and asked with some dissatisfaction:

"How do you know it's big and small yellow croakers, silver dollars and US dollars?
What if it’s variegated gold bars and silver bars?
I think it might be antique calligraphy and painting..."

It’s not clear whether curiosity and dissatisfaction can kill the cat Li Shengli, but they can definitely be used to seduce women.

"If I'm right, how about changing positions tonight?"

Du Jiaoyang can be regarded as one of the Yangma. Although his face is not very round and somewhat neutral, it is more suitable for Li Shengli's aesthetics.

The female bastards in the disciple circle can also be regarded as fierce horses. Taming fierce horses is also a hobby of every man.

"Get out of here, if you dare to mess with me, I'll bite you to death!

What would you do if it weren’t for large and small yellow croakers, silver dollars and US dollars? "

When he was competitive, Du Jiaoyang was completely unreserved and shy. He stared at Li Shengli in front of him with wide eyes.

"If what I said is wrong, this box is yours.

I will analyze the reasons for you. This method will still be useful when you go out.

My estimate is that the original owner of the other courtyard is a mid- to senior-level employee of the national banking system, and his family still has a certain amount of assets. He should be considered a wealthy person.

He is extremely wealthy and is a mid- to senior-level employee in the banking system. He must know what hard currency is.The only hard currencies back then were gold, silver dollars and U.S. dollars.

Gold can be used as wealth, silver dollars can be used anywhere in the country, and U.S. dollars can be used to travel abroad or as bribes.

As a mid-level and senior bank employee, he also has access to these things, whether he wants to save money or avoid exchanging gold yuan certificates.

He would definitely choose the most circulating hard currency. Big and small yellow croakers from the bank, brand new silver dollars and brand new U.S. bills were undoubtedly the best hard currencies. He also had channels to trade in old ones for new ones.

These analyzes are all determined by the trade-off of interests. Come on, let’s take a look. "

With that said, Li Shengli took out the bullet box from the pit. Because it was well preserved, the bullet box weighing several dozen kilograms was not damaged except for being pressed against his hand.

When I opened the bullet box, there were layers of oiled paper inside. There was still oiled paper underneath, but it just became the outer packaging of things.

Li Shengli took out an oil paper package and opened it gently. Just as he said, there were two large yellow croakers wrapped together. The cloth coins and heads were very clear, and there were not even scratches on the surface of the gold bars.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence that you said there are still silver coins and US dollars."

Seeing the familiar large yellow croaker, Du Jiaoyang's eyes lit up and he also showed dissatisfaction, obviously unwilling to fail.

Under Du Jiaoyang's surprised eyes, Li Shengli opened the contents of the bullet box one by one.

The original owner of the other courtyard is indeed very wealthy. He has ten large yellow croakers from ten cities, twenty croakers from five cities, twenty croakers from three cities, and 120 small yellow croakers from one city.

In addition to the yellow croaker, there are two rolls worth one dollar, ten rolls worth twenty dollars, and two new envelopes of silver dollars.

There were also things that were different from Li Shengli's prediction. In addition to yellow croakers, silver dollars, and U.S. dollars, there were also two pistols wrapped in oil paper at the bottom of the bullet box.

A brown grip Colt 1911, a revolver with corresponding ammunition.

"Haha, I made a mistake. It's done. This box is yours."

After looking at the two pistols at the bottom of the box, Li Shengli pushed the box in front of him to Du Jiaoyang's feet.

"For me?

Are you afraid that you are being filial to your father-in-law?

I'm afraid Lao Du won't be able to take out so many things. I see there are a lot of small yellow croakers. Should I only take the small yellow croakers home? "

Seeing Du Jiaoyang's elbows turned outward, Li Shengli also understood that her intention was to use the gold bars in the bullet box as funds to go abroad.

“Well, you’re right, I’ll leave the rest to you to go abroad.

The small yellow croakers, those from the three cities, and the U.S. dollars were all brought home to Lao Du. We had no chance to spend the U.S. dollars at home, let alone dared to spend them. "

Hearing this, Du Jiaoyang actually laughed. Li Shengli did not expose her, but took out the things he just said one by one. He also took out a small flour bag from his leather backpack and put the small yellow croakers and US dollars in it. .

Afterwards, he put the gold bars on display back into the bullet box, put the bullet box back into the pit, covered it with the original gold brick, and neatly dealt with the gaps.

"Why did you put it back again?"

Seeing the reluctance in Du Jiaoyang's eyes, Li Shengli laughed again. This female bastard was just like Mr. Xie, she had never seen much of the world.

“I guess there’s still a copy in the Chamber of Secrets.

According to this amount, this family is really not short of money.

Maybe my family, like Lou Bancheng, was also engaged in industry.

If there is one, there are two. A cunning rabbit has three caves. Maybe there will be a spear and a radio in the secret room.

If there was a radio station, it would be difficult to dispose of, and he would have to take it home to Lao Du.

If you bury it casually or leave it in the mountains, if someone discovers it, troops might come to search the mountain. "

Li Shengli was also a little frightened when he saw the contents of the bullet box, thinking that the big gold brick in the mountain might be the work of this family.

During the war, gold and silver were sometimes hard to use. Li Shengli estimated that the family must have suffered some misfortune.

Otherwise, such a large amount of gold would not be thrown away casually.

The blueprint given by Brother Tong shows that in addition to this place and the secret room, there is also such a treasure hiding spot in Xiao Feng's room.

When exchanging gold yuan coupons, spies were involved. A serious house cannot hide things. Not many people may know about a summer retreat, so it has become a place to hide treasures.

In addition to the first guess, there is another guess that these things are not personal, but a batch of funds from the national server back then. If it is the latter, there is really a radio station in the secret room, which will be difficult to deal with.

"Lao Li, don't be joking. You can never take the radio home. If the driver sees it, it will be very troublesome."

Du Jiaoyang also knew very well what the radio station represented. Although Du Lao was powerful, he could not bear the responsibility of secretly owning a radio station.

"It's just a guess, maybe there is nothing in the secret room.

Come on, let's go in and take a look. I'll lock the courtyard door first. "

In the treasure map of the other courtyards on the mountain given by Brother Tong, there are three points in the first courtyard, and the things inside are valuable.

The contents of a bullet box are worth tens of thousands. Li Shengli doesn't know the price of US dollars, so the value of a bullet box may be more than [-].

If the one in Xiao Feng's house and the one in the secret room are the same thing, it will be another fortune similar to the Lou family's cash.

"Let's go and have a look. If there is a radio station, it's best to smash it."

Don't talk about consciousness at this time. Even if Du Jiaoyang wants to hand it over, neither Li Shengli nor Father Du will allow her to do so...
