Chapter 45 One Box per Person
After hearing what Yang Jinsheng said, everyone opened the boxes in front of them. Inside were either large yellow croakers or small yellow croakers. Except for the last two boxes, one was filled with jade bracelets and jade pendants, and the other was filled with gold bracelets and gold rings, which were all very valuable.
"There are fifteen boxes in total. Wow, Fengyue, your grandpa is so rich. This is just a small amount. You are so humble." Jiang Xinlan's eyes lit up. This trip was indeed not in vain.
Li Fengyue observed their expressions one by one and saw that they were just surprised and curious, and there was no greed in their eyes. She slowly let go of her worries. If they had any bad intentions, she and her sister would probably not be able to return alive.
Li Fengxing looked at everyone proudly, "This is nothing, our family used to have more, but they were all taken away by my father." As she spoke, her voice lowered.
"Then your father is really not a human being. He didn't even leave anything for you." Zhao Yita had just finished speaking when Jiang Xinlan hit him with her elbow. She rolled her eyes at him, saying that he really didn't know how to talk. No matter how bad he was, he was still his biological father. How could you say that?
"Okay, let's get down to business. You've seen what's in the box. In addition to the gold bars, there are also some jewelry. We just agreed outside that I'll give you 40% of it. Take a look and pick your own."
Li Fengyue waved her hands. Even if they gave 40%, they would still have a lot left. Then she would ask Uncle Li to help exchange it into Hong Kong money, which they could use as soon as they got there. Hopefully, everything would go well!
Jiang Baocheng and Jiang Xinlan looked at each other and roughly understood what the other meant. Jiang Baocheng said, "Li Fengyue, what you said before doesn't count. We don't want 40%. We only need one box of yellow croaker for our family. You can take the rest back."
After listening to Jiang Baocheng's words, Li Fengyue looked at him deeply, "Are you sure? Are you the boss of them? You were supposed to get six boxes, but now you only want three? Do you know how much this box is worth?"
Jiang Baocheng turned around and looked at Yang Jinsheng and Zhao Yita, signaling them with his eyes.
Yang Jinsheng and Zhao Yitai shook their heads repeatedly, "We all listen to Third Brother."
Jiang Baocheng nodded and continued to say to Li Fengyue: "Let's do it this way. We won't regret it."
Li Fengyue felt that it was rare that she couldn't even give out the money, but she still opened the two boxes at the edge, took out three pairs of gold bracelets and gold rings from them and handed them to Jiang Baocheng and the others, saying with a smile: "Since you said so, then these bracelets are my gifts to you. I originally wanted to give you the land deeds, but after thinking about it, I decided not to give it to you, so as to avoid trouble in the future."
Jiang Xinlan suddenly remembered what her younger sister said. She looked up at Li Fengyue and reminded her, "Fengyue, although you are leaving here, I think you'd better keep the title deed, just in case you come back later and take the house back."
Li Fengyue looked at Jiang Xinlan in surprise, then seemed to have thought of something and agreed with a smile.
Yang Jinsheng had already touched the gold bar. He bit it carefully with his teeth, and only grinned when he saw a shallow tooth mark.
Only Zhao Yitai looked at the boxes on the ground with concern, and asked in embarrassment: "So how are we going to move these boxes out now?"
"Yes, how to move it out is easy for us, we can just carry it and go. But what about you? Do you need our help?" Yang Jinsheng picked up the box with both hands. It weighed about thirteen or fourteen pounds, and he did it with ease.
"Yes, yes. I can give each of you another gold bar as a reward..."
"No, you don't have to give us anything. We will deliver it to the designated place for you." Although Jiang Baocheng loves money, he already has so much and will not think about coveting just one or two more. Since he has already become a good person, he might as well do it to the end.
Jiang Xinlan also nodded, "What time is it now? We need to calculate the time, it will be difficult to do it after daybreak."
Li Fengyue glanced at the watch on her wrist. "It's past eight in the evening. Let's go out from here and go back the way we came. If everything goes well, it will take about two hours to get to my house. I guess we'll have to go back and forth three times."
Now there are only three bicycles, and it is already quite a feat to tie two boxes behind one bicycle, so I guess we will have to make a few more trips.
"No need. Two round trips will be enough. The truck will be empty when we come back. It shouldn't take more than two hours. So, Jinsheng Yita, you follow me to transport the two sisters' boxes back first. By the way, is there anyone in your house to open the door?" Jiang Baocheng asked Li Fengyue.
Li Fengyue nodded and said, "I told my mother before I came here, and she has been waiting in the yard. Just knock on the door and say you are my friend, and she will open the door for you.
"Okay, let's move all the boxes out first." There was no time to lose and they had to move everything out before daybreak, otherwise it would be troublesome if someone saw them.
Several people worked hard to move the fifteen boxes to the previous location of the cave entrance.
Jiang Xinlan panted and looked up, hesitantly saying, "There shouldn't be anyone up there, right?"
"Don't worry, no one will be so bored as to come to this dilapidated temple." Yang Jinsheng said confidently.
Li Fengyue also said: "Basically no one will come here. This temple is remote to begin with. Besides, it's already December and the weather is cold, so even fewer people will come."
"Then press it, raise the stairs and let's go up." Jiang Baocheng had just finished speaking when Li Fengyue pressed the button.
This time, the stairs were extended first, and then the stone statue on it slowly moved away.
Jiang Baocheng waited for a while, and when he saw that there was no sound at the cave entrance, he took the lead to go up.
Yang Jinsheng and his colleagues tied up the boxes one by one with ropes as agreed before, and then pulled them up.
"Huhu, finally everything has been moved up. Let's move the stone statue back first!" After saying this, Yang Jinsheng moved the stone statue back with familiarity. Several people hid behind the statue and assigned the next task.
Jiang Xinbai didn't sleep well that night. One moment he dreamed that Jinsheng and the others were captured and shot. The next moment he dreamed that a monster was chasing them. Anyway, it was not a good thing. He was too tired from sleeping.
As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw her eldest sister-in-law Li Huifen staring at her closely and teasing her, "Third sister-in-law, I'll only accompany you for one night, so what? You look listless, as if you've smoked opium."
Sun Erni slapped her eldest daughter-in-law hard and scolded her: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can you be the eldest sister-in-law? If you don't know how to speak, don't speak."
Then she looked at Jiang Xinbai and frowned, "Xinbai, if you are tired, go back and lie down for a while after breakfast. Mom will go to the hotel to ask for leave for you."
