The appearance of the secret room made Tang Cheng secretly sigh and feel lucky that he found Wang Shan. If it weren't for Wang Shan, perhaps he and Heizi wouldn't have been able to discover this underground cave. "Wait for a while, then go down." Out of caution, Tang Cheng stopped Wang Shan and did not let the latter enter the cave immediately. Instead, he squatted outside the cave entrance and waited for a while, then took out a flashlight and handed it to Wang Shan. The first one to go down to Wangshan Mountain.
Wang Shan was the first to go down into the cave. He followed the iron handle on the wall of the cave. He learned that the cave was only about 2 meters deep. Tang Cheng, who was waiting outside the cave, finally couldn't hold it any longer. , after leaving Heizi behind, he also went down to the hole. The area of the cave is not large, only half the size of the wing room above. However, like the pawnshop's warehouse, the four walls of the cave are covered with wooden shelves.
When Tang Cheng went down to the secret room, Wang Shan, who had come down a step earlier, was still staring at the wooden shelves all over the wall, as if he felt that what he saw in front of him was different from the scene he imagined. There were no piles of boxes, big or small, as expected, nor was there a large, golden area that caught the eye. There were just boxes of different sizes placed on wooden shelves. Tang Cheng was also a little disappointed, but these disappointments had long been expected by him. The disappointment on his face at this moment was just a subconscious expression.
Looking sideways at Wang Shan from the corner of his eye, Tang Cheng laughed secretly in his heart and just grabbed a wooden box on the shelf. Opening the box, the contents inside glowed golden under the light of the flashlight. Tang Cheng took a closer look and found that everything in the box was filled with gold bars. "Move them all up, and we'll talk about the rest after we go up and take inventory." Tang Cheng closed the box and reached out to push Wang Shan, who was also dumbfounded. Next, it took a lot of effort to move all the dozens of boxes on the wooden shelves in the hole to the side room.
Wang Shan was still unwilling to give up. After emptying the cave, he carefully searched several corners of the cave, fearing that there would be more secret rooms that he would miss. It turned out that Wang Shan's obsession was unnecessary, and Noda Kojiro had only this secret room. After confirming that everything in the hole had been emptied, the two people in Tang Cheng returned to the wing one after another. At this time, the originally empty wing had already been filled with boxes from the hole.
"Fifth Brother, I just quietly opened a few boxes and took a look. Three of the boxes were filled with gold bars, and the remaining boxes were also filled with jewelry." Heizi approached Tang Cheng and whispered, At the same time, he turned back and pointed to the several wooden boxes he placed on the small table in the corner, and these wooden boxes were only the smallest part of all the items.
"Go ahead, open all the boxes and look through them. I'll smoke a cigarette and we'll count them again later." After hearing this, Tang Cheng went over to open the several wooden boxes on the small table and looked through them, then grabbed a box with The wooden box of gold bars came to Wang Shan and handed it to him along with a cigarette. "This box of gold bars belongs to you. There are other people involved in this matter. I won't give it to you since I still have use for the other items."
Wang Shan took the cigarette first, then raised his head and gave Tang Cheng a serious look, then took the box of gold bars, opened the wooden box in front of Tang Cheng, and counted the gold bars in the wooden box one by one. . "I thought you were going to kill me and silence me!" After counting the number of gold bars, Wang Shan turned his left hand towards Tang Cheng. Only then did Tang Cheng realize that there was a knife hidden in Wang Shan's left hand.
"Don't worry, I'm not a villain who likes to cross rivers and burn bridges." Tang Cheng understood that the other party's move was to prevent him from committing evil acts, and then smiled at the other party. There are more than 30 boxes of various sizes placed in the side room at the moment, and there are also more than a dozen wooden boxes of various types. Counting the wooden boxes on the small table, there are forty or fifty kinds of them. Tang Cheng just gave Wang Shan a box of gold bars. Seeing that Wang Shan didn't show any impatience or anger on his face, Tang Cheng couldn't help but think highly of him.
"Have you thought about the question I asked you before? I will only give you this chance. If you choose to do things with me, I will ensure that you have a serious identity and you will live the rest of your life. Very exciting. If you choose to help me only this time, I will ask someone to destroy your files and records in the police station later. As long as we leave this yard, we will go our separate ways and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on."
Tangcheng gave Wang Shan a multiple-choice question, but Wangshan didn’t know much about literacy. He had been accustomed to wandering around alone in the past few years. If he hadn’t been caught by the Central Police Station because he was drunk and got into trouble this time, Tangcheng might not even I know that Wang Shan still exists in the world. A person who is used to wandering alone suddenly has to live under others. If it were anyone else, he might immediately refuse Tangcheng's solicitation. But Wang Shan was different. First of all, he knew that Tang Cheng had a deep relationship with the Military Intelligence Office, and Wang Shan had also heard about Tang Cheng's generosity to his subordinates, so he hesitated.
No one is born to be a so-called Jianghu who can only wander in the darkness. Even though Wang Shan comes from a rough background, he also longs to have an identity that can be recognized by others. Tang Cheng promised to give Wang Shan a police identity, which Wang Shan was undoubtedly very interested in, but he still didn't know how much Tang Cheng's promise was worth. Xu Shi saw the struggle and hesitation in Wang Shan's eyes, and Tang Cheng immediately laughed. Tang Cheng felt that he could understand Wang Shan's psychological changes at this moment.
"Otherwise, don't make a decision now. Before the end of the month, our investigation team may have another operation. You can follow me for a while and try. If by the end of the month, you still haven't made up your mind, then you You can leave at any time, I will never stop you." Tang Cheng's opinion, which sounded quite pertinent, made Wang Shan's expression soften instantly. If this was the case, there would be plenty of room between the two parties.
"Oh, how dare you open a pawn shop to make money like this!" While the two of Tang Cheng were talking, Heizi had already seen all the boxes and wooden boxes. Tang Cheng only took a few glances and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. There were already so many valuable items in the pawn shop during the day, but after looking at the contents of these boxes, Tang Cheng suddenly realized that the things here seemed to be much less than those in the pawn shop's warehouse.
After a busy inventory of the three people, the things they carried out of the secret room were quickly sorted out. There were 12 pairs of jade, agate, and white jade bracelets, 3 jade ornaments, small jade pendants, pendants, pendants, There are 23 ring fingers, 7 snuff bottles of various materials with inside and outside paintings, and 32 exquisite small antiques. The things that Noda Kojiro hid in the secret room were simply a hodgepodge. In the end, Tang Cheng found a large pile of real estate deeds, securities certificates, and IOUs in a big box, but he was really too lazy to look at these things carefully.
Tang Cheng knew nothing about antiques at all. After carefully looking at the small antiques and snuff bottles, he only knew that these things may not look big, but they are also valuable items. However, Tang Cheng was a little surprised by the large pile of real estate deeds, securities and IOUs. If handled properly, Tang Cheng could obtain more benefits and benefits than these antiques with these items alone.
"Move out, put the large items in the trunk, and put the small items in the back seats first. It's getting late, and the longer you delay, the more trouble you will have." The three people in Tangcheng started to scramble. Loading the car, as expected by Tang Cheng, after loading the items in the compartment, there was almost no free space in the car. After searching the side room and other rooms in the yard, Tang Cheng and others naturally couldn't let go. However, Tang Cheng and the others did not find anything valuable in other rooms. Wang Shan only moved a small clock out of the main room.
Tang Cheng did not stop Wang Shan from taking the clock into the car. He just asked Wang Shan to hold the clock by himself because there was really no extra space in the car. After locking the courtyard door with the copper lock that Wang Shan had opened before, Tang Cheng and the other two drove away, first sending Wang Shan to a hotel not far from the Military Intelligence Office, and then Tang Cheng rushed home with Heizi. "Fifth brother, is there something wrong with that Wang Shan?" After all, he was the brother who accompanied Tang Cheng day and night. Heizi had long seen that Tang Cheng didn't trust the man named Wang Shan very much.
"You guys can do it! You can already see my intention now. Tell me, how did you see it?" Tang Cheng concentrated on driving and did not appear panicked because of what Heizi just said. He just asked Heizi in an indifferent tone. After all, this was his family, the brother he could depend on for life and death.
"I could almost tell from the time you gave that guy gold bars. There were 12 gold bars in that box, but it was the smallest portion among the three boxes of gold bars. If you want to accept him, you should Take the box with the most gold bars, just like you gave Uncle Zhou dollars last time. But now you gave the box with the least. I knew there must be something wrong with it. When we were loading the car, you still asked for it several times. Walking behind him, Fifth Brother, what’s the problem with him?”
Tang Cheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, then stretched out his right hand and rubbed Heizi's head carelessly, "In the future, just remember to see through these things without telling them. You are my brother, and I will not let you suffer." After a pause, Tang Cheng saw Heizi turning his head from the corner of his eye, waiting for his answer, and then continued. "This Wang Shan is not simple. I think this guy may be an undercover agent sent by Bai Zhanshan to investigate. The guy named Bai doesn't seem to believe me, or he wants to send someone to watch us secretly. In short, I don't trust this person."
