Ning Zhiheng had been to this compound in his previous life, and that was when he was still proud of officialdom. At that time, the urban area of Nanjing was greatly rebuilt, and the urban planning included this old ancient building in the scope of demolition.

At that time, the cultural relics department also raised objections, but it did not play a role in the general situation.

So while the foundation was being excavated, two large urns of gold ingots were dug up in the ground of this compound. At that time, it was coaxed by the construction workers and onlookers, and the scene was extremely chaotic, and even caused a tragedy of one death and many injuries because of the robbery of gold ingots.

By the time the police arrived, it was too late to take control of the situation. Despite a long period of recovery, most of the gold ingots were still lost in the chaos.

At that time, Ning Zhiheng was one of the officials sent by the government to deal with the accident. He also surveyed the site with experts from the antiquities department at the time and identified the location where the gold ingots were excavated.

Later, a report from the cultural relics department showed that the compound was built in the middle of the Qing Dynasty and was the residence of an official surnamed Sun at that time. Therefore, it has always been named after Sun Jiayuan, but later after the war, it became increasingly dilapidated, and the gold ingot was dug up under the site of the innermost house. Because it is buried deeply, it has never been found.

As for who buried it? And why is there so much wealth hidden, because it is too old to verify.

This incident was Ning Zhiheng's personal participation, so his memory of this incident is still fresh. Although he still had a lot of information that he could use in his previous life, this treasure of the Sun Jiayuan was the easiest to collect, so he decided to get this first pot of gold first.

The middle-aged man said that the compound is now called the Liu Family Compound. The landlord also lives in the compound, the largest room on the east side. The family was good earlier, but now it is also ruined. This compound is left, and it lives on rent.

Ning Zhiheng knew it in his heart, it didn't seem that the problem was big, such a person had no money and no power, as long as he spent some money, he could get it.

He waved his hand and let the middle-aged man go. Step into the courtyard, this courtyard is very large, look at the building is very simple, but now there are a lot of people living in it seems to be very messy.

Now is the time for these small people to go out to seek a living, and when they see a soldier wearing a military uniform and carrying a pistol at his waist, they all take refuge in the compound.

Ning Zhiheng ignored them and walked straight to the door of the landlord's room. After knocking on the door for a long time, a sleepy-eyed, thirty-year-old man opened the door.

It seemed that he hadn't woken up yet, and he was a little annoyed when he was woken up, but suddenly he found that it was an officer with a rifle who was looking at him impatiently, and he suddenly woke up.

"Sir, are you looking for me?" The landlord asked cautiously.

Ning Zhiheng waited a little impatiently, and he didn't look like this landlord was sloppy. Pulling his face and saying coldly, "You are the landlord of this yard?" I want to rent a few houses. ”

Landlord Liu hurriedly nodded yes and let Ning Zhi into the house. Looking at this officer's cold face, he didn't look like a good talker, and he didn't dare to offend. Is there anyone who has been a soldier in these years to speak? Besides, now I live by collecting rent, and I can push customers out.

"There are really a few empty houses in our yard, and a few families who couldn't pay for their houses were thrown out some time ago. It's very clean, and if you fancy it, you can move in right away. Landlord Liu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The house money is easy to say, I can give you a discount if you like it!" ”

Ning Zhiheng smelled the landlord's full mouth of bed gas, took two steps back, distanced himself from him, and said, "That's good, take me to see the house now, and I'll move in today." ”

The landlord was also very happy when he heard it, this officer was in a hurry to move in, so most of this thing could be done, and he was worried that these rooms were empty and could not earn money, so he caught up with the tenant.

The landlord took Ning Zhiheng to look at the vacant rooms in the compound, in fact, Ning Zhiheng had already looked at the specific location. The house where the ingots were dug up was close to the far north, but it was already inhabited.

Ning Zhiheng didn't want to waste any more time. Pointing to the house and the two next to it, he said directly: "I have taken a fancy to these three houses, and the occupants in them will be vacated for me immediately, and I will move in tonight." ”

"But there are tenants, you~" The landlord was stunned, this officer was very happy, and he had to rent three rooms at once, but the houses he fancied had tenants, how could this be arranged.

Ning Zhiheng saw the landlord's hesitation, but he didn't want to delay too much time in this matter, he didn't know when the action team members would be replenished, but based on the situation of the Military Intelligence Department, it was estimated that no one would dare to discount the order, and the time should not be very long.

During this period, he also had to go back to his hometown of Hangzhou, send Xiaowan back by the way, and then help her find her family, which will take a few days, so he plans to finish the affairs in Nanjing in these two days.

He didn't give the landlord time to think about it, and then said, "What's there to think about, don't you still have a few vacant rooms, let them change rooms." I'm going to have to pay for a little more and have to free it up today. ”

The more you break it, the more troublesome it is. Besides, the people who can live in this broken yard are also ordinary people who are begging for a living at the bottom, and as long as they give more money, they can not agree.

"What, what else is there to think about? I don't have that much time to delay, am I still afraid of money biting my hand! Ning Zhiheng glared, patted the pistol on his waist, and asked, "I'm still afraid that I, a soldier, won't be able to get the money for the house, do I want to talk to you in another place!" ”

You can't be too polite to such a guy, coercion and temptation are the best way to get him into line, if this landlord is really not interested, then he really has to arrest him and lock him up for a few days, so as not to get in the way. When the time comes, who will be in charge of this guy's life or death.

Sure enough, the landlord, who was already a little excited, saw that the officer was about to shoot his gun, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hand: "The chief is angry, the chief is angry!" I will inform them to change the room, and change the room immediately, without delay! ”

After speaking, he called out the three tenants, and as soon as he told the matter, some tenants quit at that time. But this landlord Liu didn't dare to disobey Ning Zhiheng, but he was majestic to these tenants. When he was scolded, if he didn't want to live, he would get out, and the officer behind him was also stern. After a while, no one would be rambling anymore.

Besides, there is no loss, just a little more hands and feet to change the room, and the three tenants did not dare to cause more trouble, so they retreated one after another, went home to pack up their things and began to change rooms.

Ning Zhiheng saw that things were going well, turned his head and said to Landlord Liu: "The room is cleaned up, I'll go back and arrange it and come back." Make it clear to other guests that I like to be quiet and tell them it's okay not to bother me! ”

After speaking, he took out twenty yuan of legal currency and handed it to Landlord Liu, and then said: "These three families will give two yuan each, even if it is compensation, and the rest is the rent paid in advance." ”

Landlord Liu's eyes narrowed into a line when he saw Le, this chief is a big deal. Silver dollars are no longer allowed to circulate in the market. The Nationalist Government had just issued fiat currency, which was also the time when the value of fiat currency was the highest in history. Even on the black market, twenty fiat dollars can be exchanged for twelve silver dollars.

The rent of one room is two yuan a month, and the rent of three houses is only six yuan a month. As for the money to compensate the tenants, hehe, which of these poor ghosts dares to say a word, it will naturally fall into their own pockets.

Landlord Liu agreed, this is early in the morning to meet the God of Wealth, you should go to your own fortune!

At dusk, Ning Zhiheng returned to the Liu family's compound. He parked the jeep outside the courtyard gate, after all, the current city of Nanjing is the national capital, and the security is still good.

Moreover, American-style military jeeps are exclusively for the military, and no one can buy them from the civilian sector. No thief with such an eye would steal something so piercing, and he couldn't sell the stolen goods, and there are probably not many thieves in this era who can drive.

He put the things he had prepared in a bag and put them in his room, and the tenants in the courtyard were told by the landlord to know that the officer did not like to deal with others, so they all stayed away.

It was getting late, and people didn't have any entertainment these days, so they went to bed early at night. Ning Zhiheng waited until midnight, and it was estimated that people were asleep. Only then did he lock the other two houses, and his own house was locked from the inside. The reason why he rented the two rooms next to him was because he was afraid that the excavation would alarm the neighbors if the excavation was a little louder.

This room is not large, consisting of an outer room and a bedroom. It is estimated that the landlord later separated it himself in order to rent a house.

After carefully surveying the ground, it was quickly determined that the exact burial location should be in the northwest corner of the bedroom. He gently lifted all the bricks from the ground, and then took out a shovel from the bag.

Then in the dim light, he began to dig down, for fear of making a movement, and moved as lightly as possible. He remembered that the large urn containing the gold ingots was buried more than two meters deep, otherwise it would not have been buried for so many years without anyone finding it.

Fortunately, he is physically strong and full of physical strength beyond ordinary people. After digging for more than an hour, when I felt that I was almost at depth, I finally heard a crisp crashing sound under my feet.

Ning Zhiheng is happy, it seems that there is no miscalculation of the position. He continued to dig down, and soon two clay urns the size of a water tank appeared in front of him.

He pushed aside the floating earth, and there were multiple layers of porcelain plates at the mouth of the pottery urn. Ning Zhiheng was also an eye-catching player in his previous life, and he was able to tell that these porcelain plates were all ordinary porcelain plates fired in a private kiln. Of course, it was expensive in the previous life, but it is not worth much now.

After all, after the liberation, especially in that turbulent decade, a large number of cultural relics were destroyed, and many cultural relics and antiques that can be called peerless national treasures were destroyed, and there were no more than one left.

In the 21st century, even the price of porcelain from the Yongzheng Qianlong period fired in a private kiln can be sold at a good price. However, at present, the stock of cultural relics in the country is still very huge, and the porcelain fired in the official kiln must be old enough to be old, otherwise it will not be sold at a good price.
