The third prince jumped up quickly when he heard the sound, and he hit the snake with a hoe.
The snake moved very quickly and ran away quickly.
The third prince's hoe did not pick up the snake, but it made a small hole in the dirt.
Zhou Ruiyuan looked into the distance, "Uncle Third, it's okay, the snake ran away."
The third prince took the hoe and felt something was wrong, so he hurriedly dug down again, "Ruiyuan, see if there is anything in the ground?"
Zhou Ruiyuan knelt down as he listened and pulled up the soil with his hands, only to see something golden suddenly revealed in the black and yellow soil.
He was startled and quickly said to the third prince: "Third uncle, come and see, there is something here!"
"What is it?" The third prince quickly came over to take a look.
Zhou Ruiyuan dug up the soil above and dug out a gold ingot. ?.?????.???
"It's gold!" the third prince exclaimed.
Zhou Ruiyuan frowned slightly and continued digging with his hands.
This hole is very deep. Unlike the one or two pieces of gold last time, it is full of gold.
The third prince was stunned for a moment, "How come there is so much gold in this farmer's field!"
Zhou Ruiyuan took out the gold inside piece by piece.
The third prince followed and dug together.
In the end, more than a hundred pieces were dug out. A piece of gold is about fifty taels. The total here is about more than five thousand taels of gold. This is a lot of money.
With this gold, it is not only possible to build a house, but also to buy all the shops in Cheng'an County.
Zhou Ruiyuan turned over the gold and showed it to the Third Prince, "Third Uncle, what do you see on this?"
The third prince lowered his head and looked at the gold, only to see the word "land" engraved on it.
"Is this the Lu family's gold?" he asked in shock.
Zhou Ruiyuan nodded, "Yes, this is our Lu family's gold, the batch of gold that was taken away by Butler Sun."
The third prince looked at the gold and said in surprise: "Why is this gold in the Zhu family's land? Is it possible that Butler Sun has something to do with the Zhu family?"
Zhou Ruiyuan pondered for a moment and nodded, "Maybe there is some profound relationship."
"This land became abandoned two years ago. Butler Sun left the capital three years ago. During this period, he probably came here to bury the gold here. He must have known that the Zhu family would not come back to farm here, or that others would In the Zhu family, we know when the Zhu family started to cultivate this land."
The third prince frowned slightly, thoughtfully, "You are right."
Zhou Ruiyuan quickly brought his own backpack and said, "Let's take the gold back first and wait for an opportunity to finance it."
The third prince smiled and said: "With this much gold, we can build a bigger house."
Zhou Ruiyuan walked forward, preparing to go home, "or recruit troops."
The third prince immediately understood what he meant and walked along with him.
The two came to the home and told Aunt Zhou about the incident.
Zhou Ruiyuan asked Aunt Zhou: "Mom, do you know who is in the Zhu family?"
Aunt Zhou thought for a while and said: "In addition to the two parents-in-law of the Zhu family, they also have two sons. The younger son has not married, and the older son has married a stranger. "
Zhou Ruiyuan felt something was wrong when he heard this stranger, "Mom, do you know where his daughter-in-law is from?"
Aunt Zhou shook her head, "I don't know, I haven't asked him carefully, but from the accent, he should be from Qingzhou Prefecture."
"Qingzhou Mansion?" Zhou Ruiyuan remembered that Butler Sun's hometown was Wanzhou Mansion, adjacent to Qingzhou Mansion.
But the two places are so close, and there is a chance that his family will come back to Qingzhou Prefecture.
He then continued to ask: "Mom, when you and Wanchun went to buy land, could his eldest daughter-in-law be with you?"
Aunt Zhou shook her head, "Not around."
After hearing this, Zhou Ruiyuan became more and more suspicious of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhu family.
He thought for a while, if the money was really buried in the ground by the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhu family, then she probably did not expect that the land would be sold. If she knew that the land was bought by them, she would definitely look for it. .
Du Wanchun came over and said slowly: "If my husband has any doubts about her, we will find out after we go to Zhu's house when we are free in a few days."
Zhou Ruiyuan nodded lightly.
