Lao Pi sells a few things, but he only guarantees me two things.
One is a tomb, and the other is a tomb from the Tang Dynasty.
He didn't care whether the tomb had been stolen before, whether there were any burial objects, or whether the money could be repaid.
Many people in the Northern School know each other. If he dares to cheat Wang Xiansheng and be a bit fake, then he will stop messing around in the future, and no one will do business with him.
After Lao Pi left, we found a hotel to stay near the Chonghuang Police Station. I promised him to transfer 100,000 yuan for him tomorrow.
The next morning I transferred money, and in the afternoon I took Dou Sprout to check out the spot.
"Hello, would you like to buy some wine?
"Our family has an exclusive secret recipe that makes it brewed backwards."
The speaker was a girl in her early twenties, with a ponytail and blue floral sleeves. She had two dimples on her face when she smiled.
A very beautiful girl, she is the daughter of the owner of this wine shop, her name is Luo Xue.
"how much?"
Dou Sprout wears sunglasses, holds a leather bag, and is dressed like a big boss.
When the girl saw that Dou Sprout was very impressive, she didn't dare to neglect him at the moment, and said truthfully: "Our specialty wine is sold by the pound, and it costs 22 yuan per pound."
"22 yuan?"
Dou Sprouts took off his sunglasses and glared: "A black shop, your Xifeng only costs five or six yuan per catty, and yours costs 22 yuan per catty. Is your wine made with gold or silver?"
"You can't say that, boss," the girl argued dissatisfiedly: "The distiller's yeast I use at home is all old distiller's yeast. I got it from my hometown in Shandong at a high price. This year, when the market is not good, it only sells for 22. In previous years, it was 30. Let me tell you that. If you don’t believe it, you’ll know after you try it.”
The girl turned around and took two cups in small cups and handed them to us, asking us to taste them.
The color of the wine is yellowish, and when you smell it up close, you can smell a strong fragrance. The taste is overwhelming. I feel that it is not much different from the iron-covered Maotai I drank last time. The smell is indeed a good wine.
"Okay, let me check it out."
Dou Sprout picked up the wine glass, pretended to smell and look at it, and drank it all in one gulp.
"What's wrong?"
I saw that Dou Sprout was unsteady after drinking. He was holding his chest with a strange expression, as if he had heartburn.
“Good wine!”
Douyazai suddenly shouted: "Smooth in the mouth, thin throat, good wine!"
"I want to buy!"
The girl smiled and said how about it, it tastes good, how much do you want.
Dou Sprout slowly stretched out a finger in front of her.
"Want a pound? Why don't you buy more? We'll get half a pound for free if you buy six pounds." The girl looked a little disappointed when she saw that Bean Sprouts bought less.
Douya said I don’t want a pound.
"Then... ten pounds?"
Dou Sprout shook his head and said calmly, "I want a ton."
"Do you have one at home?"
"Tell me again, how much do you want?" the girl asked uncertainly.
Dou Sprout said again that I want a ton of this wine.
The girl brought a calculator, clicked the beeps, and said excitedly: "22 per catty, 2,000 catties per ton, that's 44,000! Did you really buy so much? Can you drink it all?"
"You don't care if I can finish the drink. If I can't finish it, I can't let it go. Just tell me if there is a ton."
"You two sit down for a moment, I'll be right over."
"dad!"
"Dad! Someone gave us 2,000 pounds of wine! Dad!" The girl ran upstairs.
In just a few minutes, the girl led a middle-aged man down. He was Lao Luo, the owner of the wine shop.
"You two, my daughter said you bought two thousand catties and walked backwards?"
"Hmm..." Bean Sprouts nodded and admitted.
"Hiss..." Lao Luo took a breath and said: "You two, we make this kind of local wine in small batches, with a monthly output of only one thousand kilograms. Including retail sales, I'm afraid there won't be that much right now. ah......"
I thought to myself, that's right, I've asked about it a long time ago, how can I rob tombs if you have so many.
"How long will it take to get enough?" I asked.
Lao Luo thought for a while and said: "It's cold and we can't catch the mosquitoes in my hometown. If we want to collect them, we can only collect the ones saved in the summer. In addition, it will take two or three months at the fastest to transport them for fermentation and aging." .....I don’t know if you can wait this long.”
I didn't say wait or wait, I just hung them up.
"Let's go and take a look at the yellow mud cellar where you make wine."
We were big customers, and the father and daughter didn't dare to neglect us, so they immediately led Dou Sprout and I to the backyard on the first floor.
There are four rectangular pits in the backyard. The pits are covered with several layers of thick raincloths, and the raincloths are pressed with bricks. Two of the four wine pits are used to brew wine upside down.
I walked around and asked casually, "Boss, which mud cellar is newly dug? I can't tell even if you cover it."
"That, that is, I used it last time and found that it didn't work very well, so I need to adjust it."
"Oh? Then let's see."
"No problem, that's okay," after saying that, the father and daughter opened the raincloth.
This is a new pit dug a few months ago. There is no old pit mud. It is used to make ordinary liquor. The surroundings of the rectangular pit have been smoothed with yellow mud, and the color structure of the underground soil layer cannot be seen.
Nearly 2 meters high, I jumped directly.
The girl said with a worried look: "What are you doing down there? Don't fall."
I don’t know whether she was afraid that I would fall or that I would trample on her mud cellar.
"Let's go, let's talk about business. Let him see it. This friend of mine is interested in the mud cellar." Dou Sprout took the opportunity to take out two thousand yuan and said with a smile, let's sign the contract of intent. I'll pay a deposit first. . "
Seeing Dou Sprout take the man away, I quickly untied my belt and took out Xiao Yunfeng, facing the middle of the compacted yellow mud cellar, and started to pour water.
I drank four or five bottles of mineral water on purpose in the morning and have been holding it in until now.
The area I targeted was large, covering almost half of the bottom of the mud cellar.
sparse.
A large area of water quickly became wet around the yellow mud cellar, and it gradually began to seep into the ground.
I carefully observed the speed of penetration.
Where the seepage is fast, it means that the underground may be full of soil and there are no stones. On the contrary, if the seepage is slow, it means that there are stones, which affects the water absorption of the soil layer.
I stared at it without blinking, and finally pinpointed one spot.
Then I quickly touched my back waist, where there was a circle of slightly thicker hard wire tied there. This was the waistband I used.
"Oh, bah."
I spit on my hand, straightened the hard wire, and then bent a small hook at the front of the wire.
Following the chosen spot, I drilled the wire back and forth.
Slowly drill the wire downwards. When the hard wire is completely gone, turn your head upside down and use the hooked end to dig in.
It was about 1.5 meters down. I carefully brought it up and took a look. I found that the color of the little soil layer I brought up had changed.
Rub it, smell it, lick it.
I was completely sure in my heart.
The mud cellar is underground, about 4 to 5 meters deep.
It is a Tang tomb.
I tied the wire back to the waistband and pocketed my pants. I whistled and kicked the dirt twice carelessly with my feet, trying to cover up the little eye that poked out.
At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind me.
"Uncle, what are you doing?"
I slowly looked back and saw a little girl squatting on top of the mud pit.
This little girl is at most five or six years old, and she looks a bit like the girl in her twenties just now.
In her hand she held stir-fry candy, which is the kind of candy you eat by stirring it back and forth with two small wooden sticks.
The little girl was playing with the candy, sniffing and saying, "Uncle, you don't care about hygiene. The teacher said you can't urinate anywhere. Why did you pee in our wine cellar?"
"I'm going to tell my sister."
I immediately stepped forward and grabbed the candy in her hand.
She stretched out her hand to ask for it, but I just wouldn’t give it to her.
The little girl cried loudly and started rolling back and forth on the ground.
"Tongtong! What's wrong, Tongtong!"
The young girl heard the cry and hurried to the backyard.
I had long ago thrown away the candy, and now I am empty-handed.
"The child was naughty, peeing everywhere, and started crying after saying a few words to her."
I pointed to the undried mud cellar and said, "Look, even though she is small, the quantity is quite large."
"Why are you so disobedient!"
"Hey, don't hit her. Children should be taught verbally," I climbed up to persuade her.
After I finished digging, I said to myself before leaving, I'm sorry, little girl. When I finish digging, I will buy you a box of candy to make up for it.
"That's it, keep the deposit and we'll come over to discuss it in detail when we have time."
"Slow down, you two."
"Let's go."
I just turned around to say hello, without looking at the road, and bumped into someone who came into the store.
"How do you go..."
Before I finished speaking, I suddenly saw a middle-aged man coming in wearing a black uniform and a number.
"Hey, I didn't hit you."
I smiled and waved my hand and said it was okay, nothing happened at all.
"Lao Luo! Lao Luo, give me half a catty."
"Come on, come on, Officer Zhao, you dare to drink when you are off duty."
"Haha, look what you said, I don't have to work tomorrow for the weekend. I have friends at home, and you are indispensable."
"Officer Zhao, you are just in luck. I'm afraid I won't be able to sell even a kilogram here in a while. It's all been booked. The deposit has been given to me. It's a ton, 2,000 kilograms."
"2,000 pounds?"
"Who is so generous? Can you finish the drink?"
Lao Luo smiled and pointed at me.
"It was decided by this boss."
I glanced at Officer Zhao and nodded slightly.
He put on his sunglasses and left.
