On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal
Chapter 463: There is Gold in the Mountains
As night falls, the north wind howls.
As the southernmost part of the North China Plain, there are no mountains that can block the ravages of the monsoon.
Lin Zhen has Huanbi's company, the tent is very warm, and the couple plays some games, full of passion.
On the other hand, this is not the case in Mang Village.
Several of Hao Bawang's men secretly climbed up the mountain by climbing over the fence at the north entrance of the village.
This group of people are the ones who were envious when they saw the yellow rat holding up the gold today.
The leader is called Dahai, who looks very fierce and has a long scar on his face. He is the top thug under Hao Bawang and also the bully in the village.
However, because Hao Bawang implemented a policy of unity, he did not bully the villagers, but occasional extortion and bribery were inevitable.
Dahai led the way up the mountain, and as he walked, he said to the three younger brothers behind him, "Be smart, brothers. We are here to test the waters today. If we do find something, no one is allowed to tell anyone."
"I know, brother!"
"Just take a look!"
"If those foreigners can dig up gold, how can we not dig up gold?"
"Did you all hear what they said? The bigger the tree, the more gold there is. So, dig under trees that no one has ever dug before. If you find anything, report back immediately!"
"Yes!"
As they were talking, they came to the north side of the mountain. There were many tools scattered on the ground, including hoes, shovels, crowbars, and axes.
The area around the mountain has been roped off, and there are guards at the foot of the mountain, but no one is in charge here.
Dahai's expression became stern, and he said, "Start digging!"
"Yes!"
Several people picked up the tools on the ground, added the ones they brought with them, and started digging after finding a tree.
The roots of the tree are not easy to dig. After a few digs, you have to use a big axe to chop off the roots and use a shovel to clear the soil.
But unfortunately, after all the hard work, we dug more than a meter deep but still didn’t find any gold.
Several people looked at each other.
"No."
"Did they really lie to us?"
"That shouldn't happen. Who would bury the gold in the ground and then dig it up themselves? Isn't that just idle?"
Dahai's face looked a little gloomy.
He also found it strange. Logically, no one would be so bored as to bother them.
There must be something under the ground!
"Keep digging!"
"Yes!"
The three of them agreed and went to find another tree.
But who knew that at this moment, a younger brother came running over and shouted: "Brother, brother, I dug it up!"
"What!?"
Dahai's face changed and he hurriedly took a few steps.
I saw the younger brother holding a piece of gold in his trembling hand.
This gold is not big, at least not comparable to what the foreigner dug out today, but it is at least one or two ounces!
“There really is gold!!”
"Brother, we've made a fortune!"
"Muramasa doesn't believe in evil. We will come here secretly to dig. At this rate, in just a few days we will dig up enough gold to last us a lifetime!"
"I'm rich, I'm rich!!"
"Hahahaha!"
Dahai was holding the gold in his hand and was so excited that he didn't know what to say.
Although no one has ever starved to death in Mang Village, it has never been so rich!
From now on, I can go to the fireworks places where foreigners go!
"Dig! Keep digging!"
"Yes!"
After confirming that there was gold, the group finally got excited and dug from midnight until dawn.
I can’t say that I had a great harvest, but I did return home with more than ten taels of gold.
This amount of gold is enough to provide any one of them with food and clothing for thirty years.
What’s more, it’s just one night’s income.
Human hearts are greedy. On the way back, Dahai gave death orders to everyone.
Only a few of them know about this matter, and no one else can spread it, otherwise don't blame him for being cruel!
But who knew that the news had already spread.
The next afternoon, the villagers began to talk about it.
"Eh? Have you heard? Muramasa has also sealed off the north side of Mt. Lingshan."
"Yeah, no one can go up the mountain now!"
"What are you doing?"
"Don't you know yet?" A village girl came over from next door and plunged into the crowd. "There really is gold on that mountain! Muramasa sent Dahai and the others out to dig yesterday! They say they found dozens of kilograms!"
"What? There really is gold?"
"That's right. Muramasa doesn't allow us to dig, so he closed the mountain. Those foreigners were also blocked out! Now Lingshan is a restricted area. No one is allowed in. I'm afraid that all this gold will go to Muramasa alone."
"So what should we do? Muramasa doesn't seem to be planning on sharing with us."
"Share? Haha, he didn't even let you climb the mountain, and he didn't even give us an explanation. He sent Dahai and the others to dig it up. He must be planning to keep it all for himself."
"No! How can I keep all that gold for myself? My boss and Dahai are sworn brothers. Let's go and take a look tonight."
"Okay, okay. If you can see it, please let me know if there's anything going on! We in Mang Village have always been united, so if there's gold, we can all dig together!"
"Who said it wasn't true? Muramasa is really being rude this time. If there's gold, we have to dig it up no matter what he says!"
"Yes, Mang Village has been poor for so many years. We finally have a chance to become rich, but we can't let Muramasa take advantage of it for nothing!"
The women were talking at their doorsteps.
It’s not that there is any conflict between the village and the city, but there is not much entertainment in this era, and the greatest entertainment is for everyone to get together and discuss something.
The woman who first said that Hao Bawang was digging for gold made an excuse that she was going home to take care of her children, and then turned and left.
Several women looked at her from behind and asked, "Hey? Whose daughter-in-law was that just now?"
"I don't know, he's quite handsome."
"Yes, she's so fair and clean. When did our village have such a beautiful daughter-in-law?"
"Look, she's entered Erdan's house. Could she be Erdan's new wife?"
"Come on, Erdan's family only has four acres of land. They're even poorer than mine."
No one noticed that the "young wife" just lingered at the door of Erdan's house, then jumped onto the roof, and finally did a backflip, flipped over the fence of Mang Village, and left.
Hou Chun completed his task and squatted by the stream to wash his face. The appearance of his "young wife" gradually turned into the handsome face of a pretty boy.
He sneered and waited for events to develop.
In the evening, it was said that Dahai had taken his brother's wife, so he persuaded the head of the family to go to Dahai to ask.
The man's name is Hu Zi. He usually has a good relationship with Dahai, but because he is timid, he rarely goes to Hao Bawang's house.
So Dahai didn't take him with him when he went digging for gold this time.
Until he could no longer resist the temptation of gold and went to Dahai's house.
Dahai's family is considered relatively well-off in the village.
That’s right, people who hang out with the village chief will definitely not have a bad quality of life.
Dahai was making preparations at home. This time he brought four shovels and two axes. He planned to expand the scope and search carefully. Maybe he would gain more than yesterday.
Hu Zi lifted the door curtain and walked in, only to see Dahai preparing to go out with his bag on his back. He said, "Brother Hai, where are you going?"
