Chapter 24 Treasure (1)

Wang Ju took out some frosting and gave it to the children.

The gray-brown frosting is the worst among frostings. The purple frosting, the better, but that kind of frosting is very expensive, and it is said that one pound can be close to the usual amount of money.

It is not sugar, it is large crystalline, nor is it rock candy, on the contrary, it seems to be fruit hard candy. Wang Ju once tasted a piece, which may not taste as good as fruit hard candy. However, the children in the village were so happy that they all jumped around with frosting in them.

Wang Quan came over and said, "Big Niu, come with me."

He took Wang Ju to the back village, pointed to a cave that was being built, and said, "It will be your new home in the future."

Wang Ju looked at Wang Quan suspiciously.

Only when we came here did Wang Ju's understanding of the cave was overturned.

The cost of building a house can be high and low. If you want to build a luxury house like Humble Administrator's Garden, you can spend 10,000 yuan. However, if you want to build a straw shed under Wang Ju, it is very cheap, and the cost is less than the cost. You can use the materials locally.

However, building a cave is not that simple.

First of all, it must be strong, otherwise it can collapse at any time, and secondly, it must be bright.

Digging a foundation is a huge project. Especially in this era, a piece of foundation in front of the cave door often has to be dug for a lifetime, or even several generations of people work hard. Unless the labor force in the village puts aside his life and works hard for your family. Finally, he has to build the hillside out of the kiln surface and dig a cave. You can't be anxious if you have labor. If the water in the soil is large, it will easily collapse. And how to dig is also very knowledgeable. If the center of gravity is uneven, even if there is a wooden load supporting the top of the kiln, it will collapse sooner or later.

After the cave is built, the kiln must be removed, scraped the kilns and scraped them flat. Then use loess, crushed wheat grass and mud kilns. Rich families also use blue bricks and lime mud kilns, which is more beautiful and sturdy, and of course the cost will be higher. Finally, they will build gables and install doors and windows.

It's just an ordinary cave, and the cost is ten times the cost of Wang Ju's broken straw shed.

Therefore, only half of the villagers in Wangjiazhai have lived in caves so far.

However, with a cave, there are many benefits. First of all, it is warm in winter and cool in summer. At least Wang Ju doesn’t have to worry about how to pass this winter. Moreover, it is durable and rarely has a hundred-year-old house, but often has a hundred-year-old cave. If it is well built and pay attention to maintenance, a cave can last for thousands of years. Unless the soil and soil deteriorate extremely, it often has heavy rains and floods, landslides, mudslides, then the cave will be eliminated. But in the Song Dynasty, the soil and water will not be damaged so seriously.

There is also a quick way. I hire many people to dig the foundation, use fire kilns, all of them use blue brick glutinous rice flour lip cube kilns, and use the strongest wood to make wooden poles. That would make money several times more money. This kiln seems to be doing this now. Countless villagers use loads and carts to pull the foundation on the slope quickly.

Wang Quan explained: "The Zhu family has paid some money and silk, and the villagers in the village have also thanked you for their labor. But it will take another month before you can move in."

"Zhu Family?"

"After you left, the Zhu family sent servants to preside over the presidency. Where is the Zhu family Erlang?"

"He will be back in a few days..." Wang Ju understood. The Zhu family saw that Zhu Jun had some changes and planned to let Zhu Jun come in winter, but they could not stay in that thatched hut. How cold it would be.

Therefore, if you pay for the money to build this kiln, it will cost dozens of cents of coins, but what does it mean to the Zhu family? And it also showed good things.

Then build it.

Wang Quan said again: "Big bull, do those black bee thieves have treasures?"

"There will be several places where the stolen goods are hidden, but where will there be treasures?"

"Then why did the treasure of the Black Bee Thieves be found in the west mountain? Your second uncle and several Ding Zhuang in the village also passed by."

"Black Bee Stealing Treasure..."

…………

Strong and firm!

The two groups of people were fighting in the valley, with weapons in their hands including barks, hatchets, and wooden sticks. The number of people was not large, and it was less than twenty people.

At this moment, six or seven more people rushed out from the side.

The balances between the two sides were immediately reversed.

The fewer people fled away with blood and blood.

"Let's take a detour from there." Wang Ju said. But he said in his heart that this is the border.

After hearing the news, Wang Ju brought out several strong men from the village to look for the second uncle and the others.

Treasure, the treasure of ghosts.

The so-called treasure was planned out of thin air by Wang Ju himself, and there will be several places where dirt is hidden, but Yu Qi believes that he has found a tomb with many precious burial objects here, and he will not believe that Yu Feng and the others have any treasures.

However, countless people flocked to this mountainous area, and there were frequent struggles, and even almost affected their group several times.

After searching around for three days, I found my second uncle and the others' vocation. I saw Zhu Qing and the Zhu family members also coming to this mountainous area by my second uncle and the others' side.

But at this time, the area was in chaos. Not only were there more and more people coming, but Wang Ju also saw some officers and soldiers moving.

"Second uncle, Manager Zhu, what's going on?"

"A few days ago, I heard in the village that the black bee thief had split under the strict pursuit of Cheng Gong and began to move the treasures stolen from the mountains. Due to uneven distribution of spoils, several parties fought and started fighting. Hearing this, the officers and soldiers came, and the villagers of the village also came. The black bee thief fled one by one, but the mountain was so big that the officers and soldiers could not protect them, so the officers and soldiers were looking for them, and the mountain people were looking for them. They actually picked up many gold, silver, copper coins left behind due to fighting, as well as other valuable items, including fur, pearls, jade, medicinal materials and spices. I also got a ingot of silver."

After Wang Wei finished speaking, he took out an inlay of about two taels of broken silver from his waist.

"Someone has picked up more, so when people from all directions heard about it, they gathered here and looked for the treasure."

The treasure has not been found yet.

However, you can pick up some property on the road from time to time. They are all poor, so everyone will fight together. They will be happy when they get what they can't get, and others will gather to rob them again or take revenge. This is the reason why Wang Ju saw many armed fights along the way.

"Treasure?" Wang Ju and Zhu Qing looked at each other, and they didn't know much about it.

"Sixth uncle, take two people back and immediately instruct the village not to send people over. Also, be careful along the way and do not conflict with others."

Because of the Tang Dynasty's measures to resettle Hu Qiang, from Yanzhou to the north, it became the most complex area of ​​ethnicity. Even if Li Yuanhao captured Jinmingzhai and took away or abducted many tribes, this area was still extremely complex. Qiang, Fan, Hu, and Han people, large-scale vendettas occurred between each other from time to time. If it were not for the large number of officers and soldiers stationed to mediate, and the threat from the Western Xia, the vendettas were even more serious.

Ninety percent of the treasure will not exist, but the crisis here is breaking out at any time.

"Sixth Uncle" Wang Liumazi took two villagers back.

"Then we'll go back too." Uncle Er felt something was wrong.

"No, let's not move here, let's see." After Wang Ju said that, he pulled Zhu Qing, walked to the top of the Tushan Mountain on one side, and looked around.

There were really many people around, and Wang Ju actually saw several officials wearing green robes.

Zhu Qing said: "That is an official from the Security Military City."

"Shao Zhijun?"

"No, Shao Zhijun is a sixth-rank official and should be wearing green official uniforms."

"Why did Manager Zhu come here too?"

"After hearing about it, the official outside felt something was wrong, so he asked me to come and take a look. It happened to happen that I met your second uncle, and I was just asking him about the situation."

"Why are these black bee thieves doing this?"

"I don't know whether it's fake. But if you make a big deal, the cost of laying this plan may cost thousands of guan, or even tens of thousands of guan."

"Manager Zhu, there is something unknown to you. It is said that General Di met with the official family. The official family once advised General Di to apply medicine to remove the words "silly" on his face. What kind of medicine can he use to remove the words "silly" on his face?" Wang Ju was very curious.

In this era, without lasers and advanced medical methods, can we get rid of the tattoo of cunning characters?

"Yes, but it's quite troublesome. First use a slapped knife to sharpen the skin, which means to sharpen the word "smart", and then apply ointment to nourish the skin. After a while, then replenish the skin. But it will be very painful when polishing the skin, otherwise it will not work. Second ointment contains many precious medicines, which costs a lot of money. Third time is very long, as short as four or five months, and as long as half a year."

"It's just that the tattoos on the face can be removed."

Zhu Qing nodded.

"So why don't these bee thieves leave here?"

This is the problem.

If you can't remove the tattoo, it will be troublesome. The tattoo with the army number on the forehead will be conspicuous everywhere. But if you can remove it, the sky will be wide open.

You can go to Xixia. Xixia is very polite to the Han people who come to join. If you have talent, you will be kind. Not only the Grand Tutor Zhang Yuan, but many Han scholars from the Song Dynasty were valued when they came there.

If you think that the Western Xia Kingdom is poor, you can also break it into pieces, remove the tattoo and escape back.

Don't ask about the cost of medicine.

After a robbery, you will make at least a thousand guan. How many evils and the others have done in recent years and how much wealth will they get?

With money in hand, the Song Dynasty did not prohibit the flow of the people. As long as the slightly prosperous prefecture was in a large number of refugees and fugitives.

Then as long as you have a few years of stability, you can be a happy rich man.

You can advance or retreat, but you cannot stay.

They turned out to be officers and soldiers, and there was a source of information, so they robbed each one and were accurate.

Without the source of information, the government was trying hard to arrest him. The merchants from all walks of life joined forces to pay huge bounties. Staying here is a way to kill himself.

Therefore, Wang Ju couldn't figure it out.
