Seeing Tian'er's innocent look, Chu Liuxiang and the other two could only smile helplessly and shook their heads.
Immediately, the knowledgeable Li Hongxiu introduced Genghis Khan to Tian'er.
"Sweetie, Genghis Khan was a very powerful ruler. He once led the Mongolian soldiers to conquer many countries and regions, and plundered a lot of gold and silver treasures and martial arts secrets. And it is said that after his death, he even He brought a large amount of treasures plundered during his lifetime into his mausoleum to be buried with him."
"Ah! Doesn't that mean that what we are going to find next is his tomb? Isn't that scary!"
Tian'er couldn't help but change her face when she heard this, and she quickly exclaimed. What she was most afraid of in her life was the corpse of a dead person, let alone being asked to rob a tomb.
At the same time, she glanced at everyone with a lowered eyebrow, and asked timidly:
"Besides, taking things from other people's graves and doing this... wouldn't it be a little bad?"
Tian'er's timid appearance made everyone laugh. Chu Liuxiang and others smiled in understanding, and Li Hongxiu even laughed and cursed:
"Silly girl, he is already dead, why are you afraid of him? Besides, the treasures in his grave were plundered from the common people. We don't want to keep them as our own, we just want to keep them. Just return it to the people again."
Li Hongxiu laughed and cursed. Looking at Tian'er's timid appearance, she smiled bitterly and shook her head with anger. She paused and then continued:
"This year there have been severe droughts in Shandong and Shanxi. So many people have been displaced and can only eat tree roots, soil and grass to satisfy their hunger. And those so-called imperial officials only know how to fight for power and have no regard for their life or death. Even What's even more sinister is that they even withhold food and grass for disaster relief. If they do this, I don't know how many people will starve to death."
As Li Hongxiu explained, he shook his head helplessly. They passed through Shandong and had witnessed the tragic situation there with their own eyes.
When Chu Liuxiang and others heard this, their faces darkened, as if they were recalling the tragic scenes they had seen when they were traveling along the Shandong coast.
They still remember clearly:
Hundreds of refugees, like locusts, had no food to satisfy their hunger and could only tear at the tree trunks that were almost eaten by them; countless people beat and killed each other in order to snatch a freshly caught fish; there were also many people wearing rags Refugees were sitting on the ground, their lifeless eyes like those of dead people; some were even in the process of being transacted. . . well! Those piles and scenes were simply shocking.
Even though they originally wanted to distribute the excess food on the ship for relief, unexpectedly, they were almost robbed. If it weren't for their high martial arts skills, they might not even be able to protect themselves.
Until that moment, they didn't know how ugly and terrible people would become in order to survive when they ran out of ammunition and food.
Looking at the refugees who were watching them on the shore like hungry wolves with gleaming eyes, they felt chilling and sad in their hearts.
They don't resent the refugees, because they know that those people just want to live, but unfortunately, with their financial resources alone, they simply cannot save so many people.
They still remember the hopeful eyes of those older children, which were like sharp knives, piercing deeply into their hearts.
Recalling those tragic scenes, the atmosphere on the deck suddenly became a little gloomy, but soon Li Hongxiu noticed this. She took a long breath and said with a sweet smile:
"But it's fine now. As long as we have this money, we can buy grain from Huguang and other places and transport it to these places. Then everything will be fine. It's finally a good idea to use the money of these dead people to do good things. It's much better than not being able to do anything." Li Hongxiu said pretending to be relaxed.
"Although I don't like tomb robbing, there is nothing we can do about it. Besides, we are just taking out the money from his tomb that does not belong to him and not touching his coffin. What's wrong with that? Okay? He killed so many people during his lifetime, and after his death, he used the money to do good deeds, which can be regarded as repaying some debts and accumulating some evil deeds for him. Maybe he will thank us down there? "
Li Hongxiu said with a chuckle. Her words were not only for explaining Tian'er, but also for herself and others. After all, even though the three of them had already discussed it, they still had some resistance in their hearts. After all, It's the first time to do this kind of thing.
Chu Liuxiang and Su Rongrong on the side also heard it, and they looked at each other and smiled.
To be honest, if they had not seen the tragic experience of the refugees, they would not take this treasure too seriously. After all, snitching is their profession, not tomb robbing, and their daily expenses are not short of money. Has his own family property.
But unfortunately, their little wealth alone is far from enough to rescue thousands of refugees, so they can only grab a few jobs first and make a cameo appearance as the golden captain.
Tian'er was told by Li Hongxiu that she felt ashamed, but she still had a tangled look on her face, and it was obvious that she was still a little scared. Su Rongrong on the side saw this and expressed comfort in a timely manner:
"Don't worry, Tian'er. Anyway, the treasure hunt will be done by the three of us. You only need to be responsible for looking after the house."
"Really!" Tian'er couldn't help but exclaimed happily after hearing this.
Seeing this, Su Rongrong and Li Hongxiu both smiled and nodded, but at this moment Chu Liuxiang said with a smile on her face:
"That's wrong! It's not three people, it should be four people."
"Ah, Brother Chu~" Tian'er looked at Chu Liuxiang a little depressed, and her pleading tone was really hard to refuse.
The other two women also looked at Chu Liuxiang curiously.
Seeing the puzzled looks of the girls, Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but smile and explain:
"You also forgot about that dead rooster. We worked so hard to find this white jade Guanyin. How can we do it if we don't put in some effort?"
Su Rongrong and Li Hongxiu both suddenly smiled when they heard this, while Song Tian'er tilted her head and thought cutely for a long time before suddenly realizing:
"Oh, Brother Chu, you are talking about Brother Ji Bingyan and Ji!"
"That's right, it's him. He provided the information, so naturally he has to put in some effort." Chu Liuxiang smiled and nodded.
Ji Bingyan is one of Chu Liuxiang's confidants and a well-known wealthy man in Lanzhou. He was the only one around Chu Liuxiang who had the ability to turn that large amount of treasure into edible food in a short period of time. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Chu Liuxiang and the others to buy enough food even if they found Genghis Khan's treasure, because many people are now buying food at high prices.
It can be said that Chu Liuxiang and others have planned everything long ago, but unfortunately, there are always no shortage of surprises in the world.
"But I think we need to leave as soon as possible. I think besides us, there should be others who know the secret of this white jade Guanyin."
Chu Liuxiang's tone suddenly became a little serious.
"Huh?" Li Hongxiu and Su Rongrong looked at Chu Liuxiang curiously.
However, Chu Liuxiang did not answer this time, but looked solemnly into the distance. It was hard not to be wary of the Sun Moon God Sect's emphasis on the White Jade Guanyin tonight.
