Chapter 171 Nugget Gold

Lu Qiaoge weighed it in her hand. The gold brick was a standard product of modern times, weighing one kilogram. As for the gold nuggets, they varied in size and color. Some were processed, while others were natural. Lu Qiaoge knew that these natural gold nuggets came from special vein-shaped gold mines and were usually very pure.

In the past, gold miners preferred to call this "dog's head gold".

There are five gold nuggets, weighing about 20 jin (10 kg), and eighteen gold bricks, weighing a total of 36 jin (18 catties).

Lu Qiaoge didn't calculate how much the gold was worth; she only mentioned the value and origin of the gold nugget, and her expression became serious.

Lu Qiaoge couldn't figure out whose things these were.

Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were many powerful and wealthy families, so it was normal for them to have treasures. Moreover, there were several gold mines north of Jiangcheng.

The northernmost gold mine was established nearly a hundred years ago by an official surnamed Li, and it yielded more than 20,000 taels of gold a year.

Many people went to Northeast China to seek gold mines.

In the chaos of war, waves of gold prospectors went through countless trials, some losing their lives while others became rich overnight.

Many wealthy and powerful families exchanged their assets for gold when they fled abroad.

Gold is valued in times of chaos, and jade in times of prosperity.

Having gold in hand means you'll never have to worry about money, no matter where you go.

Lu Qiaoge wrapped these things up and put them in the wardrobe.

We need to think carefully about how to use her.

Lu Qiaoge was unaware that Qin Hengzhi had stood at the spot where she had pulled out the large iron box for a quarter of an hour.

She was very busy early this morning.

It rained heavily at five o'clock in the morning.

It stopped after only half an hour.

The gloomy weather couldn't stop her from washing her hair and clothes, ignoring Meng Xia's nagging and quickly erasing any traces of her going out in the middle of the night.

Meng Xia had already cooled the millet porridge for Lu Qiaoge. On the table were steamed buns made from two kinds of flour that Meng Xia had steamed early that morning, along with a large plate of pickled vegetables. This was breakfast.

Lu Qiaoge is not picky about food.

She likes any ingredients that are free from pollution.

Moreover, both Meng Xia and Su Hui are excellent cooks.

After quickly finishing her meal, Lu Qiaoge rode her bicycle to work.

Meng Xia said to Grandma Lu, "Mom, Qiao Ge washed her hair and did her laundry early this morning."

Grandma Lu glanced at her and said, "She's different from Qiao Ling. She's been independent since she was little. She was just confused for a while after she got engaged to Liang Aishu. But look at her now, she's clear-headed. Look at how well she works. Neither you nor Lu Da can compare to her. So, don't worry about her and don't go rummaging through her room. Your daughter is still dating when she's grown up. Even if you're her mother, you can't just do whatever you want."

Meng Xia stopped talking, and of course, there was no time for her to overthink. Grandma Sun arrived carrying a bag of spinach and a bag of cardboard boxes containing semi-finished products.

Just then, Lu Qiaoge entered the office and saw two people coming in through the door.

It turned out to be Ding Jianshe and Chen Ying.

The two are divorced.

Chen Ying and Sister Hua said, "Let's not try to mediate anymore, we're getting a divorce voluntarily."

Ding Jianshe's eyes were bloodshot and his expression was haggard. He said in a hoarse voice, "I left with nothing. I left everything to Chen Ying, and I will use two-thirds of my monthly salary to support our two children..."

All the terms were in Chen Ying's favor.

Aside from not having children.

People in the office couldn't help but think of Jiang Chusheng and Wei Xia, who had divorced a few days ago.

As everyone guessed, two days later Jiang Chusheng got a marriage certificate with a woman named Du Wanqing.

Then, Grandma Jiang from his hometown came, and Jiang Chusheng was scolded mercilessly.

The house is one thing, marrying that woman is another, and yet another is not having children.

The old lady scolded Jiang Chusheng for being blinded by greed and incredibly stupid, saying he didn't want the house or his children.

I heard that the old lady not only scolded Du Wanqing but also Wei Xia, and it caused quite a stir for a few days. Even Lao Huang had to go and mediate. But the problem with the Jiang family is that Jiang Chusheng and Du Wanqing have already obtained their marriage certificate.

They are the legally married couple.

However, the house was given to Wei Xia and her children.

At that time, the concept of property transfer did not exist, but the ownership of the house was recorded by the local street office.

So the old lady was furious.

They prevented Jiang Chusheng and Du Wanqing from being together.

The situation is still at a stalemate.

Here comes another one. Are these men possessed or something? Why are they all so quick to choose to leave with nothing?
I must say, he's more humane than those who kick their wives and children out.

At this moment, Lu Qiaoge sat in a chair, looking at Ding Jianshe and Chen Ying.

In her opinion, Chen Ying should get a divorce.

Of course, Chen Ying needs to be open-minded about this, otherwise she will be the one suffering.

After Ding Jianshe finished speaking, Sister Hua didn't know what to say.

Sister Qiao walked over and asked gently, "Hasn't everything been resolved? Why do you want a divorce? Did the old man say something?"

Chen Ying shook her head: "No, it's just that... the two of us don't want to be together anymore."

Lu Qiaoge also came over and stood next to Sister Qiao. Clearly, neither of them had slept much all night.

She didn't say anything, and Sister Qiao talked on and on for a long time, while the two of them either smiled bitterly or remained silent.

With both parties agreeing to divorce and the division of assets properly settled, Sister Hua basically stopped interfering.

Just as the stamp was about to be put down, Chen Ying suddenly grabbed Sister Hua's hand.

Sister Hua stared wide-eyed: "What are you doing?"

Chen Ying picked up the household registration book, letter of introduction, and work permit, and pulled up the bewildered Ding Jianshe, saying, "I'm sorry, we acted impulsively. I still have many things to figure out. We can't get a divorce now. I'm sorry for taking up everyone's time."

Then he grabbed Ding Jianshe and hurriedly walked out.

Lu Qiaoge sighed.

She discovered a phenomenon.

If a man decides to divorce, he's basically made up his mind. No matter how much the woman begs or the family tries to persuade him, he'll almost never turn back.

But if a woman insists on divorce, regardless of how others try to persuade her, she will soften her heart at the last moment because she can't save herself.

This is exactly what happened to Chen Ying.

Lu Qiaoge genuinely thought divorce was a great thing. Let Ding Jianshe and Ge Rong do whatever they want. Anyway, she has savings and a house, she has a job, and Ding Jianshe loves the children and can't possibly abandon them.

Is life not as comfortable as it is with Ding Jianshe?
Therefore, Lu Qiaoge, who served as the mediator, remained silent today.

But she couldn't stay silent any longer, so Lu Qiaoge said, "I'll go out and take a look."

After saying that, Lu Qiaoge ran out and caught up with the two people. Ding Jianshe was crying.

Seeing Lu Qiaoge come out, she hurriedly wiped away her tears.

Lu Qiaoge said, "I think Uncle Ding, you should go to the mine as soon as possible."

Just then, a gray pigeon's urgent voice came from the sky: [Little fairy, little fairy, something terrible has happened! It seems the little yellow dog has been beaten to death! The dog was hit on the head by Ge Rong with a stick while trying to save the little yellow dog.]

Lu Qiaoge was stunned.

She didn't even have time to ask when the gray pigeon had gone to the mine again. She hurriedly asked Xiaohui, who was hovering in the air, "Where are you now? Where is the person? Where is the dog?"

[The mine security personnel went door-to-door early this morning to check things out, and they happened to see Ge Rong beating a child. Now the security personnel are taking the dog to the 516 Staff Hospital. I flew back with them. The little yellow dog was being clung to by the other dog and wouldn't let go. I don't know if it's alive or dead.]

If they can be sent to the 516 Workers' Hospital, they should still have a breath left.

But how can I tell Ding Jianshe about this?
We can't just make up a story and send Ding Jianshe to the hospital.

But it's impossible to let him go back to the mines.
