Chapter 69 Luring the Gold Out of the Cave (1/2)



After having eaten and drunk her fill, Ruan Yunxi went to a nearby guesthouse to rest.

Sure enough, there's no one she can't win over if she's willing.

Even demons and monsters can be made to do things for you if you are willing to offer them small benefits.

She has learned so much since she was a child!

It's not impossible to negotiate with a tiger for its skin.

And here she is, having dinner and chatting amiably with the members of the quarrying committee, whom everyone avoids like the plague.

Therefore, when profit is the primary consideration, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies.

Director Niu's side, it wasn't even time for work yet, but Dean Hu had already arrived.

He arrived empty-handed, and Director Niu initially didn't like him.

Little did we know that the person's pockets weren't empty.

He handed over five small yellow croakers: "I came to see my sister. She's timid, a woman who doesn't know anything, and her health isn't good. Staying here would only cause you trouble. Why don't you let her go back and prepare?"

Having understood Dean Hu's meaning, Director Niu readily released the person.

This time, it's Jiang Mama.

Having been tricked by Ruan Yunxi before, she was still shaken and thought she was being toyed with again. She clung to the pillar of the cowshed, refusing to let her husband and daughter leave, as if she wanted to die together or be arrested together.

It wasn't until Dean Hu appeared that Jiang's mother realized she was truly saved: "Why am I the only one here? Where's your brother-in-law? Where's your niece?"

"They still have to stay here for a few more days. I'll go back first." Dean Hu spent five gold bars to get them out of trouble. If he wanted to get them all back, he would need at least fifteen gold bars. He couldn't bear to spend them.

His brother-in-law's family has gold bars; he'll take one back, and let them figure out the rest themselves.

He's just a brother-in-law, not a savior.

They are unwilling to do business at a loss.

Besides, if my niece had listened to advice and waited for things to calm down, none of this would have happened.

To put it bluntly, they still need to be taught a lesson.

It's all his sister and brother-in-law's fault for spoiling him.

Jiang's mother couldn't bear to leave alone, so she said to Dean Hu, "Take Mingyue with you, I'll stay here with your brother-in-law!"

"Mom!" Jiang Mingyue was moved, she didn't expect her mother to still be thinking of her at this time.

It's all that bitch Ruan Yunxi's fault. If it weren't for her, my family wouldn't be in this mess.

Jiang Weisong objected: "Go out. You're not feeling well and can't handle the strain. Go back and rest properly. Do you remember where I put the medicine I gave you?"

Jiang's mother: "What medicine???"

Jiang Weisong choked for a moment, realizing that hints wouldn't work, so he had to make it explicit.

He called the man aside, and the couple whispered to each other, "When you get back, give your brother ten small yellow croakers and tell him to figure out how to fish us out. The thing is buried under the apple tree at the base of the west wall. You can dig it up. Remember not to tell anyone."

Jiang Weisong told her that it was because his whole family had been arrested that she had a chance to get out, but she didn't abandon him and his daughter, and she really treated him as one of her own.

Jiang's mother's eyes widened: "!!!"

She had no idea that there were gold bars buried under the apple tree.

She thought his family wasn't well-off, but she didn't expect him to have a backup plan.

Ignoring her anger, Jiang's mother glared at him and left with Dean Hu.

Jiang Mingyue asked curiously, "Dad, what did you and Mom whisper about?"

"It's nothing." Jiang Weisong didn't want to talk about it. The fewer people who knew about his family's background, the better. He knew his daughter's true nature. She wasn't reliable, had no shrewdness, and liked to show off and boast whenever she had something.

I regret it so much. Why didn't I have another child?

Jiang Mingyue, who was disliked.

Thinking of something, Jiang Weisong instructed, "You better behave yourself this time. The family can no longer support you. If you don't listen, I'll sign you up to go to the countryside and become an educated youth in the forest farm."
