Chapter 354: Tunnel Maze



In fact, it was not really cheating. Zhang Shixun did not explain the rules of playing cards clearly, and he could not explain them clearly. There are too many rules of playing cards, too many to count.

Zhang Shixun asked, "Yanei, whose mahjong tiles are these?"

"Of course it's yours."

"Before this, did you know how to play mahjong?"

"Won't!"

"If you don't know, just shut up."

"Oh!" Gao Yanei shut his mouth obediently.

"That's right. Humility makes people progress. I believe you will become a mahjong master in the future." Zhang Shixun knew Gao Yanei's character very well. This guy is like a donkey that pleases others if you kick him and then stroke his hair, and he will immediately become unhappy.

Sure enough, Gao Yanei obediently gave the silver to Zhang Hu.

"Brother, mahjong is so fun, can this set of mahjong..."

"No!" Zhang Shixun covered his mouth before he could finish speaking. This set of mahjong is still of great use.

"I haven't finished speaking yet, and you won't let me continue?" Gao Yanei was a little angry.

"As soon as you stick your tail out, I know what you're up to. There's only one Mahjong set in the world, and I can't give it to you."

Gao Yanei had no choice but to compromise and asked in a negotiating tone, "If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. I can find someone to copy you and make a set, right?"

"That's possible."

The game continues.

After watching for a while, Zhang Shixun felt bored and stood up and went to the yard.

The snow has almost stopped, and it looks like we can go back to the city tomorrow.

Wang Dong staggered into the yard, followed by Li Shiyi and the robot Bai Wuchang.

Zhang Shixun asked, "Come to get the silver?"

"Um!"

"Just ask Li Shiyi to come and get it. You don't have to do it yourself."

"I thought so too, but when Li Shiyi heard about the two million taels of silver, he refused to bring anyone to get it, so I had no choice but to come along."

Zhang Shixun nodded towards the study and said, "Go get them. They're all in the study."

Wang Dong waved to Li Shiyi, and Li Shiyi led his men into the study.

"Wang Dong, you have to keep this much silver safe." Zhang Shixun was a little worried.

"Don't worry." Wang Dong came over and whispered in my ear, "I have a special vault in the tunnel, with secret passages and traps. No one can take our money except me."

Zhang Shixun gave a thumbs up.

Wang Dong glanced towards the main hall and asked, "Isn't that old Taoist priest with a big nose planning to invest? When will he bring the money over?"

"Probably in the past two days. He's just busy playing cards now."

Wang Dong closed the door of the study, walked to the bookshelf and fumbled for a while, then pushed hard, and a wall appeared in front of him.

"Wow! What a clever design."

"It's okay, this is the entrance to a tunnel... Eleven, carry the silver and follow me."

Li Shiyi agreed and carried a box of silver, and Zhang Shixun also carried a box.

Bai Wuchang carried two boxes.

Wang Dong picked up a torch from the wall, lit it, and went down the tunnel first.

Zhang Shixun followed him around in the tunnel, and soon became confused.

"Wang Dong, this tunnel is too complicated, isn't it? It's like a maze."

Wang Dong introduced it to him as they walked: "You're right, I built it as a maze."

"How can a tiny place like Gao Laozhuang be built into a maze?"

"Of course not, but why should I limit myself to Gao Laozhuang? If I want, I can even build it under the city of Kaifeng."

"You're just bragging. This place is twenty miles away from the closed city."

"I mean, if I want, I can dig all the way to Kaifeng City."

"It's pointless to build such a long road. Twenty miles is not a problem on flat ground, but if you walk in a tunnel, you will definitely die... Wang Dong, you should save yourself the trouble. It's better to focus your energy on the bigger things."

"Well, my plan is also to expand within a few miles. There's no rush. There are still two years left, so there's plenty of time."

“Even so, it’s a big project.”

"It doesn't matter. I have many farmers. Let them dig slowly. They all need me to support them anyway. If I leave them idle, wouldn't it be a waste and a loss?"

"What are you taking all that trouble for, local rat?"

"This is my home, so of course it has to be impregnable."

"You'd better forget it. Even the strongest rat's nest is afraid of water."

"Believe me, my tunnel has a perfect circulation system. It is not afraid of water, unless someone diverts water from the Yellow River."

"Since you are so sure, then do as you wish. Remember to leave some space for me. I need to stock up on supplies."

"no problem."

The two of them walked and talked. Wang Dong stopped at a fork in the road and pointed to a passage. He said, "This is a dead end. It's filled with all kinds of traps and flaps. If you go in, you're absolutely dead. Once the tunnel is built, there will be many more dead ends like this."

"Aren't you afraid that one of your own people will stray in? This is a matter of life and death."

"I only open the safe part to farmers. They are not allowed to enter the rest. A few days ago, a guy who didn't know how to live or die sneaked around and fell into a trap that was more than one person deep. When we found him, he was only breathing his last breath."

Zhang Shixun teased, "Your trap isn't very good. You can still survive after falling into it."

"You know shit! This isn't a dangerous time. I didn't install a killing mechanism in the trap."

Wang Dong took Zhang Shixun around for a few more rounds. They saw several forks in the road along the way. Zhang Shixun believed that if Wang Dong hadn't led the way, he would never be able to get in or out.
