Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 358 We're rich! We're rich!
As soon as Chang Kun entered the courtyard, he activated the asset tracking function and immediately spotted where the illicit money was hidden.
It's under a chicken coop on the east side of the yard. The area around the chicken coop is full of filth, and any normal person would definitely keep their distance.
The opportunity to make a contribution has been given to Monkey King; it remains to be seen whether he can seize it.
If they can find the black money under the chicken coop, the section chief will definitely give Monkey a credit.
Chang Kun didn't offer any reminders. Anyway, the money was there and wouldn't run away. He had already done enough, so there was no need to show off in front of others.
"Junior brother, Xiao Yu and Xiao Lü, let's go treasure hunting in the courtyard together!" Hou Jun didn't want to face the filth of the entire courtyard alone, so he grabbed Xiao Yu and Xiao Lü, preventing them from leaving.
"Good news! You really haven't forgotten your brother!"
Xiao Yu and Xiao Lü grumbled under their breath, but they couldn't just come in and stand there doing nothing.
Chang Kun was unwilling to help Monkey Brother clean up the yard, so he followed Zhang Qingfeng into the room. The room was just as messy, but there was no unpleasant smell.
It makes sense. Even the most slovenly woman is still a human being. No one can stand being in a smelly environment every day.
"Tsk tsk, so many things, take your time finding them."
Before entering, Zhang Qingfeng had already confirmed with the surrounding neighbors that this courtyard was where the female boss lived.
No matter how careful she is, she can't avoid everyone; someone will always see her coming and going.
The two men began rummaging through drawers and cabinets. Chang Kun was just going through the motions, but Zhang Qingfeng was different. He wanted to dismantle the wooden cabinets completely, as if he was afraid that there were gold bars hidden inside that he hadn't found.
As time slowly passed, it grew dark.
Zhang Qingfeng grew increasingly agitated, finding only tattered clothes and nothing of value whatsoever.
"Chang Kun, go and call some men, bring a few more flashlights. We'll work through the night. I refuse to believe that they can hide anything in this small courtyard!"
Chang Kun agreed and walked into the courtyard. He saw Monkey and the other two looking disheveled and dejected as they swept up the filth on the ground, afraid that they might have missed some hidden passages or mechanisms.
He didn't want to waste time here, so he moved closer to Hou Jun and whispered in his ear, "Brother Monkey, I think there's something wrong with that chicken coop. That woman doesn't raise chickens, so why would she need a coop?"
Hou Jun's eyes lit up. His junior brother's idea was right!
"Xiao Yu and Xiao Lü, come quick, let's take the chicken coop apart and take a look."
Looking up at the filth scattered around the chicken coop, Lü Jiawei gagged, "Brother Monkey, I really can't go on. If I throw up here again, it'll make the treasure hunt even more difficult..."
Xiao Yu was relatively more honest; although he looked disgusted, he still helped Monkey King clean the chicken coop little by little.
This credit should rightfully go to Xiao Yu and Monkey King. As for Lü Jiawei, he should just laze around and hide on the sidelines. Just don't be envious later.
Chang Kun went outside and called out to Lei Guohong and Lao Zeng, who were visiting the surrounding neighbors, and asked them to bring flashlights into the yard.
"That woman is a real scumbag. Some neighbors say they've seen her bringing men home often, and she screams and howls all night long."
"These neighbors are all speaking after the fact. When we first questioned them, they said the woman was a good person and sometimes shared food with them."
"Hey, that's called being beholden to someone who pays your bills. Even if you don't like it, you can't really say anything."
Lu Jiawei, who was listening nearby, was a little confused: "Master, this woman brought a man back to get beaten up? And why is she wailing like a banshee... How badly must she have been beaten? I heard she was being beaten with a belt in the interrogation room, and she didn't even make a sound."
Old Zeng glared at his idiot apprentice: "Are you just standing here like a flagpole? If you're not going to do any work, get out of here!"
Hou Jun laughed as he cleaned the chicken coop, so much so that his stomach started to hurt.
"Monkey King, what are you laughing at? Isn't Xiao Lü's question wrong?" Xiao Yu also stared with her innocent big eyes, full of curiosity.
"Why are you asking so many questions? Don't you get tired of talking?!"
Hou Jun and the others had been in the courtyard for a long time and had become somewhat immune to the stench, but Lei Guohong and Lao Zeng couldn't stand it.
To speed things up, the two went to the chicken coop.
"Come on, let's lend a hand and lift it up!"
"One, two, three... Go!!"
Before the chicken coop was even put down, Xiao Lü shouted from the side.
"Holy crap, what's this?"
There was an iron plate attached to the bottom of the chicken coop; no wonder it took several people working together to lift it.
There used to be a small mechanism between the iron plate and the chicken coop; you could easily lift the iron plate by prying it open. But they destroyed it with all their might.
Beneath the iron plate was a large hole, which was very likely where money and treasure were hidden.
"We found it! We found it!" Hou Jun jumped and shouted with joy.
He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing he no longer had to sweep away the filth.
"Found it? Where?"
Zhang Qingfeng, who was inside the room, also rushed out; he was tired of searching inside.
He opened up all the tattered blankets and rags to check, but found not a single penny. He even sifted through the ashes in the stove, but still found nothing.
He even suspected that the woman might have another residence where she hadn't hidden any money.
"Section Chief, I'm here!"
Hou Jun and Xiao Yu excitedly circled the iron plate under the chicken coop, eager to jump down and search for treasure.
"What are you doing? You want to make a move already?" Lei Guohong stopped Monkey Brother and waved his hand. "Move back a bit."
Monkey King and Little Yu were stunned for a moment, then silently retreated to the side.
"Old Lei, you really care about your younger comrades." Zhang Qingfeng waved his hand. "You all go to the back. When it comes to treasure hunting, of course it's up to me, the leader, to handle it."
"Boss, let me take the credit."
Lei Guohong insisted, and Zhang Qingfeng stopped arguing. He turned to Chang Kun and the other younger ones and smiled, "Remember, if you encounter tunnels or pits like these in the future, don't rush in headfirst. What if there's a landmine inside..."
Hou Jun and the others nodded solemnly. The older comrade's deep affection for the younger generation was especially heartwarming at this moment.
Chang Kun quietly moved closer, sensing danger. Even if there were landmines, he could warn Lei Guohong, who was hiding under the iron plate, as soon as possible.
Less than a minute later, Lei Guohong's deep voice came from inside the cave: "I've checked everything, it's fine. Send another person down, the stuff is a bit heavy, we can't lift it!"
Something so heavy it can't be lifted? A look of surprise appeared on the faces of everyone on the ground.
"I'll do it, Master, I'll do it!" Hou Jun hopped to the cave entrance and slid down in a few quick movements.
Inside the cave was a large vat, covered with several layers of tattered cloth.
With help from those above and those below lifting it up, the large vat was moved to the ground.
"Who will lift the rag?" The group looked at each other.
Zhang Qingfeng, who was supposed to be the leader, opened the jar, but instead, he laughed heartily and said, "I think Chang Kun is the most suitable person to lift the cloth. Not only did he make a great contribution in finding the treasure this time, but he also always came back with a catch when he went hunting before. He must have had good luck!"
"Yes, yes, among all of us, Chang Kun must be the luckiest!"
Chang Kun didn't hold back either. Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, he suddenly ripped off the tattered cloth.
"Wow!"
Holy crap!
"It's out!"
Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief; they had never seen anything like it before!
