Chapter 299 Dig it out

"Maybe it's just because the silver is a bit heavy, and it has been raining for the past few days, so the silver has sunk deeper into the soil."

Jiang Junli said in a deep voice, "Tell someone to dig deeper, and we'll probably find it."

The manager nodded in agreement and then ordered people to continue digging.

The servants were now working with all their might, determined to dig deep into the ground to find all the silver.

They don't believe in evil!

The digging work lasted from the afternoon to the evening, so that the entire Guanghua Garden was brightly lit with candles, as if it were daytime, and the sound of clinking continued.

Just when the moon was hanging high above the branches, the steward came hurriedly looking for Jiang Junli.

Xinghe, who was on duty at night, stopped the steward and said, "My dear, you have already gone to bed. What do you want to find me at this time?"

"Big news, big news!" The steward was excited. He turned around and rubbed his hands again and again. "Something was dug out in the flowerbed!"

"Did you find the silver?" Xinghe felt less sleepy.

"We didn't find any silver, but we did find other things." The steward was a little incoherent, "There are so many things. I thought I'd better ask you to go over and take a look."

Seeing that the steward was excited and seemed a little frightened, Xinghe hesitated for a moment and decided to wake Jiang Junli up.

"What on earth is it?" Jiang Junli put on his clothes with sleepy eyes.

"The manager didn't say it, but judging from the situation, it doesn't look like a good thing." Xinghe frowned. "When I was a child, I saw that the garden was dug more than one person high. Now that something has been dug out, it must be nearly two people deep. Maybe..."

"Maybe they dug out some bones or something?" Xinghe gritted his teeth.

Hundreds of years ago, wars were raging among warlords, and the capital became a battleground due to its geographical location. Countless soldiers and civilians were killed and injured, and there was even a case of the entire capital being burned down.

The world was so chaotic at that time that naturally there was no one specifically to collect the bodies of some people, and burying them on the spot was the most common thing.

Then the Xin Dynasty was established, the capital was rebuilt, and the past history was buried underground.

No one knew what was underneath Guanghua Garden. Maybe it was a mass grave? The more Xinghe thought about it, the more horrified he felt. He even shuddered.

Jiang Junli also frowned, and after putting on his coat, he went to the flower garden with Xinghe.

At this time in the flower garden, the servants were still carrying things out, and on the corridor near the flower garden, there were already seven or eight large boxes placed.

"My lord." The steward lit up a lantern and ordered his men to open the large boxes one by one.

Each box was filled with gold, silver, jewelry, or various porcelain antiques, and each one looked to be in excellent condition and worth a lot of money.

"These..." Xinghe was stunned, "Were they all dug out?"

"That's right." The steward nodded. "It looks like a secret room downstairs. There are many boxes like this one. I roughly counted them and there must be about thirty or forty boxes."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Thirty or forty boxes!

Xinghe couldn't help but be amazed, and subconsciously took a pearl necklace from the first box and looked at it carefully.

The pearls used in this necklace are quite large, round and large, and of excellent quality. This pearl necklace alone is worth more than 1,000 taels of silver, and there are countless jewels in this box that are comparable to this necklace in quality! (End of this chapter)
