Reborn in the 1970s, Zhang Sanniu's new life

Chapter 79 Several boxes of gold bars and jewelry

San Niu and Liu Hao, hurry back to your room and go to sleep!

San Niu and Liu Hao didn't get up until dark, and Zhang Laosan also just got up!

Wang Cuihua prepared the meal, and the family sat down to eat together!

Wang Cuihua said, "My dear daughter, your father said today that you all need to sleep, and he didn't order any tonics!"

“It’s alright, Captain. We were just really tired today, so we didn’t ask for any tonics. You see, we didn’t get up until dark. Even if you made some, we wouldn’t be able to eat it,” San Niu said.

“Oh, I see,” Wang Cuihua said.

"Honey, eat more shrimp," Liu Hao said!

"I want to eat sweet fish," San Niu said!

"Okay, I'll put some in your bowl," Liu Hao said, picking up some fish and putting it in San Niu's bowl!

"Third Sister, do you still want that chicken leg?" Second Sister asked.

"Second sister, you ate too much meat at noon today. Don't eat chicken legs tonight. You can eat vegetables, and the chicken legs are for Dad. Third sister, put the chicken legs into Zhang Laosan's bowl!"

"It's still my old daughter, she loves her father so much," Zhang Laosan said happily as he ate his chicken leg!

Erniu didn't dare to eat meat anymore, and only picked out a few vegetables to eat!

After eating, San Niu soaked her feet, took a shower, and then went to bed!

"Brother Hao, do you think there are any hidden mechanisms in the house we're staying in?" San Niu asked, clinging to Liu Hao's chest.

"Well, it's hard to say. But in the past, wealthy and powerful families liked to set up traps in their homes to hide valuables. Some even dug cellars to hide grain, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, and calligraphy and paintings," Liu Hao said.

"Oh, let's look around the house too, just in case we find some treasure!" San Niu stared at Liu Hao with wide eyes!

“Okay, baby, if you want to look, tomorrow your uncle and I will secretly search every room and every yard,” Liu Hao said!

“Okay, after we’ve searched this area, let’s go to the other courtyards and search them carefully,” San Niu said.

“I know, who knows, we might actually find it. These courtyard houses we bought have been inhabited by generations of people. And the bigger the house, the more likely it was inhabited by high-ranking officials, especially during the imperial court era. Those high-ranking officials had a lot of gold and silver jewelry in their families. They all liked to hide things,” Liu Hao said, patting San Niu’s head.

“Yes, if we really find it, we’ll be rich!” San Niu said.

"Yes, and in ancient times, they loved to set up traps. There were many skilled craftsmen back then, and they were all very capable. Some traps were so clever that you couldn't find them unless you looked very carefully. I heard that there was a carpenter who made a bed with many hollow pieces in the middle that could be folded up to hide things. Later, a high-ranking official found out about it and invited him to his home to make a lot of furniture that could hide things," Liu Hao said.

“Oh, that’s really amazing! The ancients were so clever!” San Niu exclaimed.

"Okay, baby, it's getting late, let's go to sleep! We have important things to do tonight!" Liu Hao said.

"Okay, Brother Hao, you can sleep peacefully. I need to go to the bathroom tonight, I'll wake you then," San Niu said!

"Okay, I'll hold you while I sleep. Liu Hao is holding San Niu while he sleeps!"

In the middle of the night, San Niu got up to go to the bathroom and woke Liu Hao up!

"Brother Hao, Brother Hao, get up quickly! Go and call my father first," San Niu said!

Liu Hao woke up and said, "Okay, baby, I'll go put on some clothes and get dressed when I get back!"

San Niu quickly went to the toilet, then got dressed and put on her hat!

Liu Hao came back, got dressed, and the two of them turned off the lights, closed the door, and waited for Zhang Laosan!

Zhang Laosan came out, carrying two flashlights. "Let's go! I brought another flashlight!"

"Okay, that's more thoughtful, San Niu says!"

Liu Hao took San Niu's hand and walked out with Zhang Laosan. Then he opened the gate, drove the truck, and headed to the store on East Street!

In just over ten minutes, they arrived at their destination. Once there, Zhang Laosan unlocked the door, and Sanniu and the others quickly went inside. Liu Hao activated the mechanism and shone a light on the room. When Sanniu saw it, she was astonished to find sixty or seventy large wooden crates. Sanniu didn't even have time to look inside!

San Niu whispered, "Dad, Brother Hao, you two hurry up and load it onto the truck. I'll go to the truck bed and keep an eye on everyone so we don't get caught!"

“Yes, girl, when someone comes, you meow like a cat. When we hear it, we’ll turn off the alarm,” Zhang Laosan said.

"I understand. Hurry up, Sanniu, open the carriage door quickly, climb onto the carriage yourself, stand up, and keep watch!"

Liu Hao and Bei Laosan, along with one other person, started carrying boxes and loading them into the car!

It took the two of them more than twenty minutes to carry the box. After they finished carrying it, Liu Hao put the mechanism back in place, quickly locked the door, and drove home!

Back home, Sanniu said, "Dad, Brother Hao, let's carry the box out to the yard first, close the gate, and then carry it slowly so no one sees us!"

San Niu stood by the roadside, watching people. Liu Hao and Zhang Laosan quickly moved all the boxes into the yard and locked the gate from the inside. Only then did the three of them breathe a sigh of relief!

"Honey, you can put these boxes there first," Liu Hao said.

"Dad, Brother Hao, let's move all the boxes to Brother Hao's room first. These things can't be put in the front yard, it's not safe," San Niu said!

“Okay, daughter, you go open Liu Hao’s room first. We’ll carry the boxes,” Zhang Laosan said.

“Okay, I’ll turn on all the lights in the yard,” San Niu said, walking forward and turning on all the lights in the yard, both in front and behind her!

San Niu entered the courtyard where they lived, and looked at the rooms where Da Niu, Er Niu, and Zhang Lao San lived. Seeing that the lights in the rooms were not on and there was no sound, she opened the door to Liu Hao's room!

San Niu stood outside the door, watching as Liu Hao and Zhang Laosan carried a box into the house!

San Niu went in, opened the box, and saw that it was filled with gold bars. San Niu quickly closed the box and drew the curtains tightly. Then, Zhang Laosan and Liu Hao carried in box after box. San Niu opened each box and looked at it, one by one. After looking at it, San Niu had a good idea of ​​what it was like. There were a total of sixty boxes of gold bars and seven boxes of jewelry. One box was full of very large pearls, and another box contained jade bracelets. The bracelets in that box were particularly beautiful, and the jade was of exceptional quality!

After the box was put away, Sanniu said, "Dad, hurry back to your room. Mom will ask you where you went! Just tell her that the machine we bought arrived and she asked you to help set it up." Sanniu instructed.

"Alright, lock the door," Zhang Laosan said, then went back to his room.

San Niu locked the room, and she and Liu Hao went back to their room to sleep!

San Niu and Liu Hao returned to their room, washed their hands, changed into their pajamas, and went to bed to sleep!

San Niu lay in bed, too excited to sleep. "Baby, what's wrong? Can't you sleep?" Liu Hao asked, holding San Niu.

"Yes, Brother Hao, we've really struck it rich! We have a full sixty boxes of gold bars, and seven boxes of precious jewelry. One box is full of huge pearls, and another box is full of jade bracelets, all of them are so beautiful!" San Niu said happily.

"Honey, that's great! You've opened them all and looked at them," Liu Hao said!

"Yes, I opened and looked at each box, but I didn't count how many gold bars were in each box, San Niu, tell me!"

"Yes, such a big box. I think there must be four or five hundred gold bars in it. It was very heavy for my uncle and me to carry. There must be a lot inside," Liu Hao said.

"Hmm, I think that's about right! With these gold bars, plus all the antique bottles and valuable furniture we've acquired, we could live off them for the rest of our lives without ever spending a penny!" San Niu said happily.

"Yes, from now on we'll live a good life every day. We'll take our uncle and aunt to travel everywhere. We'll happily enjoy life together," Liu Hao said!

"Okay, that sounds wonderful. Tomorrow I'll pick out a jade bracelet for your mom to wear, San Niu said!"

"Okay, let's pick a pair for Auntie too, so she can be happy," Liu Hao said!

"Okay, are you still seeing your eldest sister and sister-in-law off?" San Niu asked.

"No need, they don't need to send gifts. If you want to send gifts after we get married, if they treat you well, then you can send them gifts. If you don't get along, then you don't need to send gifts. Let's just live our own lives well," Liu Hao said!

"Okay, I'll do as you say. Tomorrow, I'll pick out a jade pendant or something suitable for my dad to wear. My eldest and second eldest sisters are too young; they're still in school. I can't give it to them now, San Niu says!"

"Okay, baby, it's getting late. Let's sleep a little longer, or it'll be dawn soon," Liu Hao said.
