Bang bang bang!
After shouting the martial law oath, the strong men beat their chests and finally started to take action.
At first, fifteen strong men followed, five were killed by the city gate star hammer, and ten were left. Yue Guanchao thought that if he added a few of them, it would be barely enough.
But he also understood that what Butler Chao said about the Seven Precepts of the Chao family in front of outsiders was obviously a drunkard's intention not to drink. It was called a warning to strong men. In fact, it had a deeper idea - it was to tell They, outsiders, should not act rashly. His mission is over.
As a result, there were only ten people left, and there was no way to transport a large amount of treasure out of the tomb. The steward had no choice but to sit still and find two strong men to go outside the tomb and call all the others in.
Everyone waited for about a stick of incense, and when the Wengcheng became noisy, it meant that the remaining dozens of strong men had arrived.
Yue Guanchao stood in front of the Hanyuan Hall and looked carefully. It was obvious that a group of people were walking on Zhuque Street. They carried bamboo baskets, long spears and short sticks, and hurriedly walked into the Danfeng Gate. In the blink of an eye, they had arrived at Zuozang. library.
The staff is ready and gearing up.
These strong men waited for the steward's order and began to carry the treasure without saying a word. These men were all good at what they did and had their own rules for doing things.
Everyone has several pig belly bags in their hands. First, they put gold and silver coins, jade and jewelry, then antique utensils, antique calligraphy and paintings, and finally hairpin ring jewelry, porcelain vase statues, and take away owl kiss sculptures and lamp candle holders. Everything was plundered.
There are many kinds of treasures in various categories, and the treasures accumulated like a mountain in Zuo Zang's warehouse were quickly put into pig belly bags, and they were round and strong, stacked like a mountain.
According to the housekeeper Chao, this pig belly bag is much lighter than ordinary sacks. It can be used to hold a large cow or a small live chicken. It can be allowed to expand or shrink without breaking.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really wouldn't have believed that there really was such a magical bag in the world. Seeing that the treasures in Zuozang's warehouse were completely emptied, everyone couldn't help but marvel at the secret magic weapon controlled by the Chao family.
"Housekeeper, this thing is so heavy, do you guys have any way to transport it away?"
Yue Guanchao looked at the piles of treasures. Other than that, the gold and silver were already heavy on his hands. The pig belly bag had grown so big that it weighed one or two hundred kilograms.
"Brother Yue, relying on brute force in everything will not last long. It is far less safe than using skill. Just take your guess."
After blowing the whistle at the housekeeper, the strong men took out the remaining thousand-year-old bamboo tubes and inserted them into wooden-wheeled bamboo carts with a stable chassis and a backrest like a bucket. The bamboo carts were connected to each other, like giant centipedes with dozens of segments connected front to back.
"I know, this is, this is the Centipede Roller Coaster."
After Master Cat finished speaking, he nodded silently to the housekeeper, acquiescing that his guess was true!
"Master Cat has a good eye. The centipede roller coaster came from Mr. Zhuge's wooden ox and horse. Later, we modified it and turned it into a centipede roller coaster that can easily transport heavy objects. No matter how heavy the cargo is, as long as it can be put into the bucket mouth, it will definitely be able to transport heavy objects." Ship it out.”
Having said that, the Centipede Coaster had already left Danfeng Gate under the escort of strong men and walked along Suzaku Avenue to the outside of the city tower.
According to the instructions of the housekeeper, the strong man who came down to load the treasure needed to escort the Centipede Mountain Car away first. The ten people who came down with him before still stayed there to finish the work. As for Yue Guanchao and the others, they naturally had to stay at the end before setting off.
As soon as they came and left, everyone was forced to stay and guard the empty Zuozangku with Butler Chao!
Half an hour later, a firework signal flashed near the city tower and sprinkled the sky with stars. When the steward saw the fireworks, he immediately knew that all the treasures had been transported out.
He patted his sleeves, stood up, and bowed his hands to Yue Guanchao!
This kind of etiquette is completely different from the clasping of hands and fists among peers. The clasping of hands and fists can be done casually. Once the clasping of hands is performed, it means that the relationship between the two is no longer equal, but a superior-subordinate relationship with clear distinction between superior and inferior.
It would be fine if it were others. Being treated like this by the old man Chao Guanchao made Yue Guanchao not feel very comfortable. He only felt a chill in his back.
Is it possible that, for fear that we will reveal the secret, they want to execute us in the tomb so that we can be buried with the emperor?
Yue Guanchao didn't understand the situation, so he quickly took a step back and said:
"Housekeeper, you are polite, so why bother?"
Yue Guanchao took the opportunity to help him up. The old man bowed again and then said slowly:
"Brother-in-law searches for treasures for the Chao family. It is an agreement between the two parties. After the work is completed, he will be rewarded. Chao does not need to be more polite. However, the courtesy just now must be done. This is because the Chao family still has something to do. Please ask Mr. Do it.”
Seeing that the housekeeper was about to change his mind, Yue Erpao quickly teased:
"Is there anything else? Why did you increase the pressure before the battle? Didn't you agree to only look for the treasure at that time? Now that the treasure has been found, you are too untrustworthy."
Yue Guanchao's heart skipped a beat, as the ominous premonition he had along the way came true.
