"Okay, I'll go with you then."

Xin Che and Jiang Lili came to the backyard, where there were eight more rooms.

But Jiang Lili found that all the houses in the backyard were locked: "What should I do?"

"Can you lend me the hairpin on your head?"

Xin Che remembered that the plain hairpin that Jiang Lili had been wearing these days had a very thin body.

"OK!"

Jiang Lili readily took off the hairpin on her head.

Her black hair fell behind her waist, looking very soft in the moonlight.

Xin Che fiddled with the lock with a thin hairpin, and it opened after three or five tries.

Jiang Lili marveled at Xin Che's movements. This kind of skill would have to be registered in modern times. "I want to learn this skill too!"

Xin Che looked at Jiang Lili and saw her eyes were shining like stars. "Okay, I'll teach you tomorrow."

Jiang Lili pushed open the door of the first room. Before she could see what was inside, a scent of medicine hit her face. Then, a large number of medicinal herbs came into view.

Jiang Lili remembered that Yuan said that the richest man in Langyan Village was the largest supplier of medicinal materials in Linzhou.

Now these houses in the backyard should be warehouses for temporary storage of medicinal materials.

Xin Che recognized some of the herbs, and his eyes lit up: "If we are crossing the Qinglin Mountains from Linzhou, these herbs that clear heat, detoxify and eliminate dampness are indispensable."

"But, how can we take away so many medicinal herbs?"

This room full of medicinal herbs alone could probably support three carriages.

Jiang Lili thought, shouldn’t this be calling Xiaopang?

But she was also a little worried that there wouldn’t be enough space for Zhang Xiaopang, after all, this was only the first room!

Jiang Lili took a photo and sent it to Zhang Xiaopang: [Brother Xiaopang, is there enough space there?]

Before Zhang Xiaopang responded, Jiang Lili suddenly had an idea.

If you click on your own avatar in QQ chat, won’t a dialog box pop up?

It is somewhat similar to WeChat's file transfer assistant.

Jiang Lili tried to click on her own avatar in the group chat message interface, and a dialog box really popped up.

But you can’t send red envelopes to yourself, you can only send files.

Jiang Lili clicked on the "File" icon, and a photo-taking interface popped up, prompting her to take a photo and select the file to be saved.

Jiang Lili pushed Xin Che out of the house: "Wait a minute, I'll show you a trick."

Xin Che and Jiang Lili have developed a tacit understanding of not interfering with each other.

After being pushed out of the house by Jiang Lili, Xin Che just stood in the yard and observed the surrounding situation to prevent any accidents from disturbing Jiang Lili.

Inside the house, Jiang Lili aimed at a room full of medicinal herbs and pressed the shutter. A scanning animation appeared on the camera interface, followed by a pop-up prompt: "Identified item: medicinal herbs. Do you want to save it to your personal folder?"

Jiang Lili clicked "Yes", and the next moment all the medicinal herbs in the room disappeared.

Jiang Lili quickly checked her personal folders and found that not only was there a folder called "Medicinal Materials" created, but also that various medicinal materials were separately classified.

The subfolders with file names such as "Perilla" and "Poria" are neatly arranged.

If Jiang Lili wants to use a certain medicinal material in the future, she only needs to click on a single folder to take it out.

Awesome!

Jiang Lili was ecstatic. This function was similar to a portable space for storing and retrieving items. Xiaopang's workload could be reduced a lot!

Jiang Lili opened the door with a look of joy on her face.

Xin Che raised an eyebrow and looked at the empty room: "Did your trick work?"

"Yes, let's hurry up, otherwise it might fail in a while."

Jiang Lili smiled and pulled Xin Che to quickly pry the lock of the next room.

After harvesting two rooms of common medicinal herbs and one room of precious medicinal herbs from previous years, the next room was filled with food and daily necessities such as oil, grain, rice and flour. Jiang Lili still had not found the small treasury of the richest man in Langyan Village.

Jiang Lili was a little depressed: "Could it be that the richest man in Langyan Village hid all his money in Linzhou City?"

Xin Che pondered, "I don't think so. A cunning rabbit has three burrows. Besides, the Yuan family needs money to pay the villagers for digging herbs."

"That's right! Linzhou City is crowded with people and has many eyes. This village is controlled by the Yuan family and is actually the safest." Jiang Lili thought so. "Could it be that the entrance to the house is covered up?"

Xin Che remembered that when he and Jiang Lili were searching these rooms, they found an underground wine cellar where the dry food was stored.

"Maybe it's in the underground wine cellar, but the wine cellar is really too big."

"Are you looking for something?" Master Liao came over holding a bottle of milk. He said seriously, "How about I tell you a fortune?"

Jiang Lili recalled that the reason why Master Liao had such a Buddhist temperament was also due to family factors. Master Liao's family was a Feng Shui master, and it was quite mysterious.

However, Master Liao is rather rebellious. He usually plays Western Tarot cards in class, which are sometimes accurate and sometimes not.

Jiang Lili touched her chin and said, "How about giving it a try? I'll ask Xiaopang to get a deck of tarot cards."

Master Liao shook his head: "Just give me three copper coins."

Jiang Lili took out three copper coins with some doubt. Master Liao shook the coins three times and then pointed to the direction under the cowshed: "The northwest is the position of the God of Wealth."

"It's hexagram divination."

Xin Che was surprised. This boy was truly a prodigy among prodigies.

Xin Che was inspired by what Liao Dabao said and quickly called Xin Cheng.

Xin Che deduced that the silver and money were hidden in an extremely secret place with a mechanism at the entrance. Many wealthy families would invite skilled craftsmen to design mechanisms for their treasure hiding places.

And his younger brother Xin Cheng is best at designing mechanisms.

Sure enough, after Xin Cheng came over and went down to the cellar, according to the direction indicated by Master Liao, he quickly found the mechanism of the vault door.
