Chapter 32: The Small Yellow Croaker in the Weight



Tang Yulan still found it incredible when she saw the backpack that suddenly appeared!

My precious daughter is so amazing!

Isn’t this the world in the sleeves of Zhenyuan Daxian in Journey to the West?

So her daughter has become a fairy?

But soon her attention was attracted by the rags in the backpack.

Looking at the four worn-out radios on top, Tang Yulan rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Did you take Zhuzhu to the scrap yard? Why did you buy so many broken radios?"

"Zhuzhu wanted it, so I bought it."

Jiang Shixun said this, and couldn't wait to untie the rope and pick out the things in the backpack.

Because the radio was the last thing he bought, he placed it on top. When he took it out, underneath it were the old books and newspapers that Jiang Shixun had bought.

Next came the wood he had bought, and finally the scrap metal.

Tang Yulan stood by and watched curiously. When she saw the wooden box, she couldn't help but pick it up, opened the lid and took a look.

The place where the lock was hung on the wooden box was deformed, and it was obvious that it had been hit. No one knew where the lock had gone.

So Tang Yulan opened it easily.

Of course there was nothing in the box.

Tang Yulan looked at it over and over again, and said with heartache: "What a nice box, it's a pity that it was smashed. Those bastards!"

After saying that, he couldn't help but sigh, "What kind of wood is this made of? It's quite heavy."

Then he complained to Jiang Shixun: "Why did you buy so much junk?"

Jiang Shixun picked up the weight and placed it on the table: "Of course it's for this! Otherwise, buying just this thing would be too conspicuous."

The weight of the weight is obviously wrong. If you just pick up the weight, someone with a keen eye will definitely notice the problem.

So he deliberately picked up some heavy scrap metal and mixed them together for weighing so that it would not be conspicuous.

The copper was also bought for cover-up.

Anyway, if you don’t need it, you can sell it. As long as you sell it to another scrap yard, who will find out the problem?

Tang Yulan was so surprised when she saw him carrying a weight that her eyes widened. "Isn't this a weight? Why did you buy it? Is it a treasure?"

She wasn't stupid either. She started to use it, and then she realized the problem: "Hey! Isn't this too heavy?"

Jiang Shixun said with a burning gaze, "There must be gold hidden inside."

This weight is quite large. If it were made entirely of gold, it would probably weigh about twenty kilograms.

But it only weighs about ten pounds, so there must be something else.

"I'll get a basin of water to wash it clean and see what's going on!"

Jiang Shixun said this and quickly fetched a basin of water and put the weight in it to wash it clean.

After washing off the mud on top, the black paint underneath is exposed.

Jiang Shixun scraped it hard with the knife again and soon found an inconspicuous seam.

After twisting it hard and struggling for a long time, he finally got the weight open.

Tang Yulan was shocked. This thing turned out to be an iron box disguised as a weight!

After opening it, there was solidified white wax inside.

Jiang Shixun used a knife to dig away the surface of the white wax, and the thing underneath soon revealed its true appearance -

"Wow!" Tang Yulan couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's actually gold!"

Jiang Shixun kept digging with a knife and dug out everything inside.

Except for the white wax fish, all of them are small yellow croakers the size of a thumb.

After a careful count, there are actually two hundred!

Each of these small yellow croakers weighs about 30 grams, and 200 of them weigh more than 6,000 grams!

If it were converted into money...

Tang Yulan swallowed excitedly: "I... I'm not dreaming, am I?"
