...
Changle County faces Taiwan across the sea. The county is larger than Muye City. Although most of the area is mountainous and forested, such a large place can naturally hide some things.
The place that Lam Yat-fung was taking Yip Yuk-hing to was called Red Isle.
Chiyu is a mountain, but it is only about two or three hundred meters high, making it a very low mountain.
But this mountain is almost entirely covered by vegetation, with no official roads, only dirt paths made by people walking on them.
This mountain was the territory of the Big Black Fish, but because it was far from the sea, the Big Black Fish abandoned it a long time ago and stopped hiring anyone to guard it.
The mountain was abandoned.
But some of the big black fish is still here.
Lin Yifeng still remembers what Yang Biaozi told him back then: that the scoundrel Da Heiyu actually hid his fortune for his comeback in Chiyu Mountain, under his ancestors' graves.
He searched for a long time back then, and several years later, when Chiyu Mountain was burned down, he discovered that the black fish's fortune, which had made a comeback, was hidden in Chiyu.
Lin Yifeng took Ye Yuqing by bus to a town not far from Chiyu Mountain, and then the two walked about ten kilometers to the foot of Chiyu Mountain.
"Come on, I'll take you gold mining!"
"Gold rush?"
Ye Yuqing was puzzled, but she didn't ask. Instead, she chose to follow Lin Yifeng's footsteps.
Lin Yifeng was really here to strike it rich. He and Ye Yuqing climbed Chiyu Mountain step by step, carefully navigating through the lush grass and keeping a watchful eye on any venomous snakes.
Fortunately, Chiyu Mountain is not high, only about two or three hundred meters high. Otherwise, without proper preparation, one would definitely not be able to climb up a mountain with no roads, lush vegetation, and various poisonous insects and snakes.
The scenery of Chiyu Mountain is quite nice. Although there are many poisonous insects and snakes, the view from Chiyu Mountain is quite unique.
But Lin Yifeng had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery before him. He searched around the top of Chiyu Mountain and finally found the ancestral grave of the big black fish in an extremely inconspicuous place.
This is a small mound completely covered by vegetation. The mound is very small, and the inscriptions and other artifacts are all covered by vegetation.
If Lin Yifeng hadn't been certain that Yang Biaozi was telling the truth, he definitely wouldn't have been able to find him.
Ye Yuqing remained silent, observing without asking questions. Although she was very curious, she believed that Lin Yifeng would provide an explanation.
Do you believe in dreams?
Lin Yifeng began to fabricate stories: "My ancestors were actually from the coast, but they fled famine and came all the way from the coast to the Central Plains Province, where they settled down."
“Some time ago, my ancestors appeared to me in a dream and said that they had buried a lot of gold in this mountain and asked me, their descendant, to come here to retrieve it.”
"So, here I am!"
Lin Yifeng's words were full of loopholes, but Ye Yuqing just blinked and didn't refute them, nor did she bombard Lin Yifeng with too many questions like a walking encyclopedia.
"Come on, lend a hand."
Lin Yifeng asked Ye Yuqing for a hand. He took out the shovel he had bought on the way and started digging!
This place is said to be the ancestral grave of the Big Black Fish, but it is actually the location before the Big Black Fish's ancestral grave was moved.
In the South, ancestral halls are highly valued. After Da Heiyu rose to prominence, he sent people long ago to solemnly relocate his ancestors from the mountain to the ancestral hall at the foot of the mountain.
In other words, the place is actually empty, with only a grave mound and a buried inscription.
Lin Yifeng dug without any psychological burden. After digging for a while, he handed the shovel to Ye Yuqing and asked her to dig for him for a bit.
Men and women working together makes the work less tiring.
Veronica Yip's physique was far superior to that of Yat Fung Lam; it took the two of them a full two hours to dig a large pit.
In the mud of the large pit, a rotten lock was exposed. Lin Yifeng pointed at the lock and said breathlessly, "Look, this is the wealth left by my ancestors!"
Veronica Yip's eyes widened.
She thought Lin Yifeng's previous words were false, but now this lock made her start to believe them.
Could it be that Lin Yifeng's ancestor really appeared to him in a dream?
"Keep pushing, dig it out!"
Lin Yifeng worked harder, and together with Ye Yuqing, they dug out the box buried underneath.
This is an iron box.
The iron box was rotten, and the lock on it was broken. Lin Yifeng picked up a shovel and opened the box directly.
There was nothing else in the box.
It's all gold.
Gold is a hard currency; as long as you have gold, you won't go hungry even if you flee to a foreign land.
The iron box containing the black carp was filled with gold. Lin Yifeng estimated that there were about twenty pounds of gold in the box.
In 1992, the market price of gold was around 70 yuan.
The gold inside this iron box could conservatively be sold for over 700,000 yuan.
This gold was the capital Lin Yifeng used to buy arcade machines from Yang Biaozi.
"There really is..."
Ye Yuqing's eyes widened as she looked at the chest full of gold.
She didn't actually believe what Lin Yifeng had said before.
But this...
A box of gold.
How to fake it?
"Let's go back to the guesthouse."
"Wait for news about the big fish and the small fish, and then find some time to meet these big shots who run the seas."
"If we're lucky, we might be home in four or five days."
Lin Yifeng was in a great mood as he looked at the box of gold.
These smugglers make far more money than he does running Mixue Ice Cream or Wallace.
They make millions every time they smuggle goods.
certainly...
The risks of smuggling are several times greater than those of running Mixue Ice Cream or Wallace, and this path is a dead end; you either die at the hands of your competitors or end up eating peanuts, a reward from the state.
If it weren't for Guo Fengsheng's incident provoking Lin Yifeng, and Lin Yifeng's acquaintance with the formidable Ye Yuqing, it would have been a different story.
He definitely won't come to Fujian Province.
