However, what kind of kind person would turn a drawer upside down? There must be something fishy going on inside!
Upon making the discovery, Zhang Long became excited and eagerly stuffed the two drawers inside.
With a "click," the two drawers jammed shut inside.
With his sharp eyesight, Zhang Long immediately noticed that the center of a floral carving in the lower left corner of the box had moved slightly.
As he slowly applied force, the stamen part was gradually pulled out.
This treasure map has now come to light. The entire treasure map is made of silk, making it very lightweight.
No wonder this thing is weightless. With the appearance of the treasure map, this side quest is completed.
500,000 points were credited to his account immediately. This jewelry box is amazing! He put the flower-shaped item back in.
I'll give this box to Xin Xin to play with and see if she can discover the mechanism.
Zhang Long felt completely relaxed and calmly took out a cigarette and lit it.
He was slightly surprised when he saw the treasure map in his hand.
I didn't expect this task to have an unexpected reward besides points.
The location of this treasure map is in Sheshan, Shanghai, not in the city center. Does that mean the treasure is still there?
Now he was really excited. According to the treasure map, the owner of the treasure map was a division commander under Lu Yongxiang, a warlord who was based in Shanghai during the Beiyang period.
With Lu Yongxiang's defeat, he also fled, dividing his property into three parts and burying them in three different places.
The purpose is to prepare for a future comeback.
Upon seeing this, he specifically searched on Baidu to find out what had happened to this minor warlord. After seeing the treasure map, he could vaguely guess what was going on.
Sure enough, Baidu showed that there was no such person, so he probably died somewhere.
The treasure map in his hand was part of this minor warlord's entire fortune.
Warlords and wealth—the combination of these two words is incredibly tempting!
He couldn't wait to set off to search for the treasure, but he still needed to figure out the exact location of the treasure map first.
With that in mind, he turned on his computer and ordered several metal detectors.
......
In a dense forest in the northeast of Sheshan, Shanghai, Zhang Long is leading engineers from three super factories to work.
Four people held metal detectors and scanned back and forth, just like in the movie "Minesweeper".
More than a week has passed since he obtained the treasure map.
The approximate location has been determined; it's right here where they are standing. The rest will just require time to find.
The markings that the minor warlord made when he buried the things have long since disappeared with the passage of time.
After all, more than ninety years have passed, and the terrain has changed so much that he wouldn't recognize it if he came back to life.
As the sun slowly set, another fruitless day, Zhang Long was preparing to call it a day when an engineer's detector suddenly started beeping incessantly.
The group of people, who had been somewhat listless, suddenly perked up.
These engineers were hired by Zhang Long to earn extra money. If they really find a treasure, Zhang Long will have to give them a large sum of money.
Although they were given to them by the system, they still have their own joys and sorrows, and their own desires. Although they will not betray Zhang Long, Zhang Long still has to pay them high salaries.
This aligns well with the principle of equivalent exchange in systems.
The group of men went to the spot where they had just found the item, and got to work with great enthusiasm.
More than half an hour later, the group finally dug a large pit about 1.5 meters deep.
Zhang Long saw that the pickaxe had hit something, so he quickly pried it open with his hands and revealed a large box.
Finally seeing the actual product, the group worked even harder, proving that their hard work hadn't been in vain.
Soon, the group dug the box out of the water. Seeing that the surface of the box was corroded beyond recognition, Zhang Long took the pickaxe handed to him by the engineer and smashed it against the lock on the box.
With a loud "bang," the lock fell off.
With a mix of trepidation and excitement, he opened the box and immediately noticed a layer of waterproof fabric inside!
Now, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
I'm afraid that if the contents inside corrode too much, it'll be all over.
After he removed the waterproof cloth, he was blinded by a layer of golden light.
The box was full of large yellow croakers. He didn't have time to count them all, so he quickly closed the box again and tried to figure out how to move it upstairs first.
It took the four of them a great deal of effort to get this box of large yellow croakers upstairs.
I checked the time; it was already past six in the evening, and it was getting dark.
So the group ate some dry rations, rested briefly, and then got back to work.
They began to "expand their territory" in all directions, following the location where they found the box.
Although this box is full of large yellow croakers, this amount of stuff is hardly worthy of a warlord's status, let alone a warlord who is developing in Shanghai.
Three more days passed, and the four of them found a total of fifty-six large boxes here.
Five of the crates contained weapons, but they had all been completely corroded.
All that was left was a pile of scrap metal, so Zhang Long buried it back up.
The current worry is how to transport these things back without anyone noticing.
This is such a sweet trouble!
After all, money can be very tempting, and he had to be careful about that.
In the end, we could only resort to the most rudimentary method, like ants carrying food, moving it back little by little.
Even for Xin Xin's graduation ceremony, he went in a hurry and returned in a hurry.
This made Hu Xinxin particularly curious about what he had been busy with lately.
According to her informant, Zhang Long hasn't been to the company lately, leaving early and returning late every day.
Wearing an academic gown, Hu Xinxin followed Zhang Long home, and then suddenly seemed to be frozen in place.
Because she saw the treasure that Zhang Long had painstakingly brought back over this period of time.
The small mountain of yellow croakers of all sizes was so shocking to her that it was indescribable.
Seeing his girlfriend's naive and unworldly demeanor, he wouldn't admit that when he presented it, his hands were trembling with excitement.
Zhang Long then recounted to Xin Xin in detail how he had gone to the flea market and how he discovered the treasure map.
Upon hearing this, Hu Xinxin was immediately filled with remorse.
Treasure hunting! Such an exciting activity, and she wasn't even included!
Zhang Long chuckled and said, "This is nothing yet."
"There are still more than 30 large boxes waiting for him to move!"
