When we talk about this, it's like "seeing each other in vain".
After going around in such a big circle, the result turned out to be like this, which was a bit unexpected for them.
But the rumor of "one ton of gold" has been circulating in Xingqing Prefecture for decades.
As the saying goes, you can buy antiques in prosperous times and buy gold in troubled times.
Ma Hongkui sensed that things might change here early on, so he took action early and exchanged all the wealth he had accumulated over the years in Ning Province for gold and silver.
But the gold mines in the Helan Mountains were still being mined, and there was still a large amount of gold that had not had time to be transported out.
Seeing that the territory could not be defended and the luck could not be transported, he could only temporarily hide it somewhere in the Helan Mountains. He drew a secret map to mark the location, thinking that he would dig it out if he had the opportunity to come back in the future.
Then, Ma Hongkui split the map in half. He took one half with him to the treasure island on the bald man's plane, and left the other half with Guo Shuanzi to clean up the mess.
Later, everyone also knew that Guo Shuanzi violated the law and acted duplicitously. In the end, he was shot in front of tens of thousands of people at the public sentencing meeting.
Ma Hongkui later went to Los Angeles, and finally died of illness in the United States. He was never able to set foot in the country again in his life.
This ton of gold buried in Helan Mountain has become an old unsolved case.
"Mr. Guo, I thought this 'Gold Hidden in Helan Mountain' thing was a fabrication, but I didn't expect it to be true?"
Lao Feng is considered a "native" of Xingqing Mansion, and he has heard this matter mentioned by his family members more than once.
I still remember that when he was a child, he often heard the old man talking about the scene of the "Ten Thousand People Public Sentence Conference" in which the big bandit Guo Shuanzi was shot.
Lao Feng's ancestors were also big landowners back then, so they had eaten and seen many of them.
In his words, the so-called one ton of gold was just a life-saving charm left by Ma Hongkui to his son-in-law Guo Shuanzi.
A ton of gold is not a small amount in any era.
As long as Guo Shuanzi insists that this is the case, at least he can be saved from death.
Later, I didn't expect that Guo Shuanzi wanted to die on his own, and no one else could stop him.
Now, the descendants of the Guo family are sitting here talking about what happened back then, which proves that it is true.
"Whether it is true or not, we can only know the authenticity after Boss Lin solves the mystery in this half of the map. Anyway, we have been mining in the Helan Mountains for so many years, but we have not found a single clue."
Judging from what he meant, the reason why the Guo and Ma families were so actively involved in mineral mining was to find that ton of gold.
According to the information provided by Lao Feng, the two of them have successively obtained mining licenses since the mid-1990s and began to invest and build factories here.
More than thirty years have passed, and there is still no news at all, which is indeed a bit strange.
However, these are not issues that Lin Yi needs to consider.
Now there are only two ways before him:
First, cooperate with Guo Wenbin and help him find this ton of gold. It will be good for you and everyone.
Second, he refused his request for cooperation and then paid the "life-buying money" himself. As for who the "buyer" behind the scenes will look for next, it is unclear.
Moreover, it remains to be seen whether Guo Wenbin wants this "life-buying money" or not.
"How about it, Boss Lin? I also know that this matter can't be rushed. Besides, your people haven't arrived yet. I'll give you three days to think about it. During these three days, you can walk sideways on the streets of Xingqing Mansion. , no one will stop you.
After three days, I will book a private room in Delong Building. We will discuss it in detail then. What do you think? "
When Old Feng heard this, he now had a chance to escape and quickly winked at Lin Yi.
"Okay, I'll go back and think about it. In three days, we'll meet again and have a detailed chat."
"Okay, Huzi, let's see the guests off!"
Scarface dodged, opened the door, and lifted the curtain.
Lao Feng went up to shake Guo Wenbin's hand, and Lin Yi got up and left his office with Bai Lu.
After the three of them got into the car, Guo Wenbin stood in the corridor and looked down, with a smile on his face, but he was still giving instructions to the scarred face next to him:
"I'd like to say hello to my brothers. Just keep an eye on them for the next three days. It's up to you to decide who's in debt."
"Brother Ma's side"
"I'll go tell him!"
After saying that, Guo Wenbin smiled and waved to their car.
Lao Feng stuck his head out of the car window:
"Go back, Mr. Guo, it's cold outside, but don't catch a cold!"
He took his head back and immediately urged the driver to drive away from the mining area.
On the way back, Lao Feng was like a resentful woman, constantly complaining that he had picked up a hot potato.
"I thought I was just going to be a middleman to make peace, but in the end, I got into such a mess. I said I didn't listen, and Guo Wenbin insisted on dragging me into the water. You said, this happened, but I didn't eat mutton. It also caused a lot of trouble."
"Master, find a mutton restaurant nearby. You must let Uncle Feng eat this mutton."
"Hey, I was just making an analogy."
"I'm really hungry."
Lin Yi said seriously.
Old Feng turned around:
"How can you still eat? You are just a walking check now. Hey, if I were you, I would pack up my bed right now. What else can I eat?"
"The more this happens, the more you need to eat. At least you shouldn't starve to death on the way to hell."
"you"
Old Feng had no temper at all after his few words, so he simply asked the driver to take them to the door of a mutton shabu-shabu store.
"You go ahead and eat, I won't accompany you."
"You really don't want to eat Uncle Feng? Didn't you just say that you didn't eat mutton and made you feel embarrassed?"
Without saying a word, Lao Feng closed the car window and asked the driver to drive away quickly.
Lin Yi and Bai Lu looked at each other and smiled, then turned and walked into the shabu-shabu restaurant.
The two found a quiet corner, ordered a few plates of meat, some ingredients and frozen tofu, and let the copper pot cook first.
"Brother Lin, do you know who this person is who paid for our heads?"
Lin Yi nodded.
"Besides the people from 'Ziyihou', there should be no one else.
"Then what should we do now? Just leave here?"
"It's definitely not easy to leave now, and the main purpose of our coming here this time is to find the whereabouts of the 'Yuzhou Cauldron'. If we leave like this, when can we come back again?"
"Then what should we do now? If we agree to Guo Wenbin, how can we find the 'Yuzhou Ding'?"
Lin Yi didn't say anything, but poured the sheep's tail oil, meat rolls, tripe, and frozen tofu into the copper pot.
Then he tapped the edge of the pot twice with his chopsticks.
"That's it!"
Bai Lu looked at him with a puzzled expression, still not understanding what he meant.
"Since they don't know where the gold is buried, don't we have the final say? On the ground in Xingqing Mansion, they have the final say, but underground, it's us who have the final say.
When the time comes, give them a pot of soup! "(End of chapter)
