Burning down my ex-husband's house! I won't raise these bastard children anymore

Chapter 338 I’m also curious about how these tomb robbers do it

Her heart and eyes were filled with admiration. She looked up at Lao Jia and said seriously, "Lao Jia, these coins are very expensive. I'm going to tell you clearly first, so don't regret it later."

Lao Jia quickly shook his head, his expression filled with anxiety:

"Tell me the truth, and I'll show you our village later, and you'll understand why I'm in urgent need of money.

If these coins could be exchanged for money, it would be great for me.”

Lin Panpan nodded, pointed at the coins she had picked up on the ground and said:

"Okay, let's carry it to the car later!

I'll give you 30 gold bars, is that okay with you?"

After hearing this, Lao Jia quickly waved his hand and refused:

“No need, just pay the market price.

These coins may be worth a lot in the future, but I can’t afford to gamble! For me, the real thing is the best.”

Lin Panpan looked at Lao Jia with admiration in her eyes: "I said 30 gold bars, that's 30 gold bars. You can use these gold bars to improve the lives of the villagers."

After hearing this, Lao Jia turned around, waved his hand, and shouted, "Help the boss carry this basket of things to the car!"

When Lin Panpan heard this, she quickly said:

"No, no, no, don't call me boss!

Just call me Panpan, it's awkward and embarrassing to call me that."

Old Jia looked at Lin Panpan and said with emotion:

"Panpan, if we hadn't met you, who knows how long our village would have to endure these hard times!

Come, I'll show you around the village."

As he said this, he took Lin Panpan for a walk in the village.

Along the way, Lao Jia introduced:

"Look, from the outside, the houses in the village look OK, but in reality, almost every family lacks a strong laborer.

Therefore, most villagers do not go to the team to earn work points. Only the elderly and women are left at home, and there are few young and strong men.

In recent years, some women, seeing no hope in life, have hardened their hearts and abandoned their elderly and children and run away.”

Lin Panpan followed Lao Jia's footsteps and looked along the way. Most of the people she saw were elderly people walking with difficulty.

Occasionally you can see a few children laughing and playing in the village, but there are rarely any young people.

There are quite a few children in the village. They wear tattered clothes and do not go to school.

Lao Jia paused, a trace of helplessness and sadness appeared on his face, and then he said to Lin Panpan:

“Although I don’t have your ability and can’t make the villagers rich all at once, I still want to help them to the best of my ability.

Every household is short of food now. I'm thinking every day about how to improve everyone's lives, but I just can't think of a good solution. I'm so anxious!

Lin Panpan sighed and said:

“It’s not that difficult to improve your life. As long as you are willing to use your brain and think of ways, you will definitely be able to do it.

If you can't farm, there are other ways out!"

Lao Jia smiled bitterly and said:

“It’s easy for you to say, but look at our situation, how can we make money?

We can't rely on tomb robbing anymore. To be honest, people in the village are not very willing to do this job now.

Our village used to have more people, but now there are only about 520 people in total, but there are less than 50 men. If something happens again, the village will be finished.

Moreover, now the villagers are unwilling to let their children go to rob tombs. When Lao Jia talked about tomb robbing, his voice became a little lower:

"For those of us in this line of work, the biggest fear is damaging our virtue!

You don’t know, all my sons are gone, not a single one left, only this one grandson is left.

But this child isn't very smart, and I feel like there's a heavy stone weighing on my heart every day."

Lin Panpan looked at Lao Jia and said seriously:

“I think that if you have this ability, it won’t be difficult to change your livelihood.

Like I said before, helping me collect waste is also a way out.

However, these children cannot be delayed and must learn knowledge."

Lao Jia shook his head helplessly, his face full of bitterness:

“Alas, you don’t know the situation in our village.

For children, even having enough to eat is a big problem, let alone going to school.”

Lin Panpan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said:

“If you don’t mind, please send these children to our village school!

The school in our village is now in good condition, with about 20 teachers and good teaching quality.”

Old Jia trembled slightly with excitement: "Is it really possible? Can we really send the child over?"

Lin Panpan nodded and said slowly:

"If I say yes, then it's fine. It's always good for children to learn more cultural knowledge.

This will not only benefit them, but will also be of great help to the development of the village.

Well, let's put aside these small talk and talk about business!"

Lao Jia took out a note and said:

“You don’t know about this until you check it out, and you’ll be shocked when you do.

In fact, my grandfather's generation had many apprentices, and these things were generally unknown to outsiders.

So whenever I ask, they tell me the truth.

And now there are many people working for Boss Ye, and they leaked the news to me."

Lin Wanwan raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at Lao Jia with interest, and asked, "Then why haven't you thought about cooperating with them?"

Lao Jia's expression straightened up, and he quickly explained:

"In the tomb-robbing business, the most taboo thing is to bring people from other villages into the business. Usually, tomb robbers are not even trusted by their own family members.

Fortunately, our village is relatively united and there has never been any betrayal.

But if we really bring in outsiders, the situation will be difficult to predict. I've written down all the information on the odds, please take a look."

Lin Panpan took the paper and her eyes were immediately attracted by the handwriting and marks on it.

A closer look reveals that the locations of these openings are marked in detail, and some even have the surrounding terrain features noted.

She found that there were several trading ports not far from where they were, one in particular, which was marked as only two or three hours away.

Lin Panpan nodded slightly, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes, and said:

"Then let's go check this out tonight.

I'm also curious about how these tomb robbers do it."

Lin Panpan rushed home. She quickly picked up her pistol and put it on her waist. She also took out a dozen sharp daggers and distributed them to the villagers one by one: "One for each of you. Keep them all!"

She dug out a few more bundles of thick ropes and tossed them aside: "Take these with you too, you might need them!"

The group carried their equipment and quickly got on the truck. A few hours later, the truck slowly stopped at the foot of Liuqu Mountain.

The Liuqu Mountain in front of us looks particularly eerie and terrifying under the cover of night.

Lin Weihua swallowed and said, "Panpan, why did you bring us here?"

Lin Panpan smiled and said, "My factory was burned down by the Ye family, so naturally I have to make them pay some interest."
