Wu Laizi was laughed at and felt that he had lost all face. He stammered, "Village Chief Liu, please don't go too far with your words.
We are from the same village. If you don't give me anything, aren't you afraid that I will tell other people? If people from other villages find out, they will definitely come to take things away."
Seeing that being tough didn't work, Wu Laizi started to make some threatening remarks.
Sure enough, the people on Village Chief Liu's side became worried after hearing this.
"Yes, what should we do, Village Chief Liu? If people from other villages find out, how can we keep these things safe?"
"That's right, this Wu Laizi is so shameless. If he can't get it, he will destroy it. What do you think we should do?"
There were also some timid people in the crowd, and everyone began to look at Village Chief Liu with concern.
Village chief Liu knew that Wu Laizi didn't have the courage to do that, and at most he said that to scare them.
He stepped forward, lifted Wu Laizi's collar, looked him straight in the eye, and said word by word, "Wu Laizi, don't talk nonsense here, believe it or not, I will lock you up.
If you two still want to live in the village, you'd better behave yourself. If you make me angry, I can't guarantee what I will do. "
When Wu Laizi saw Village Chief Liu speaking so seriously, he was frightened and nodded in a daze.
When the people around Village Chief Liu saw that Wu Laizi didn't dare to jump around anymore, they felt a little more confident.
"Wu Laizi, you'd better listen to Village Chief Liu, otherwise we won't let you go!"
"That's right! That's right! You'll be in trouble!"
With the intimidation of Village Chief Liu, everyone began to have the confidence to fight against Wu Laizi and his group.
Yu Qingqing pulled Yu Qingshu aside and whispered a few words to him, and only then did Yu Qingshu nod in satisfaction.
Yu Qingshu quickly came to the side of Village Chief Liu and whispered a few words to him. Village Chief Liu immediately understood his purpose.
Village Chief Liu cleared his throat again and shouted, "I can't give this to you for free. If you really need it, you can buy it with money.
We'll give you a discount, five pounds for one penny. If you don't have money, you can use something else to pay, such as wild vegetables, river shrimp, etc. I hope you won't cause trouble again, otherwise I won't show you any mercy."
Wu Laizi and his group, who were originally dejected, felt as if they had heard the sound of nature when they heard the words of Village Chief Liu.
Everyone said that they would not do it again and could exchange things for something.
Only Wu Laizi failed to achieve his goal, and his heart was full of resentment.
He was a lazy man who had neither money to buy things nor anything to exchange.
His main focus is on living off the fat of the land and enjoying the fruits of others' labor. For a lazy man like him, who only appears once in a century, a few words cannot correct him.
Yu Qingqing came up with this idea to prevent these people from causing trouble in the future. By dealing with most of the people, Wu Laizi alone wouldn't be able to cause any trouble for a while.
After the farce was over, those who needed to exchange things also hurried back to get them.
Wu Laizi didn't get any benefits and had to walk away in shame.
As soon as the troublesome person left, everyone lined up to share the things. This time, each person could take more than 100 kilograms, and Village Chief Liu distributed it according to 150 kilograms.
It was not until it was completely dark that the things were finally distributed. Everyone happily took the fruits of victory and went home.
At this time, Yu Qingqing's family had also prepared the meal. They were tired after a day and were already hungry.
Tonight I made braised rabbit, chicken mushroom and pheasant soup, stir-fried shredded radish and cold-mixed dandelions. Of course, I also had white rice for dinner.
Originally, Yuan Xichen said he would treat their family to a meal, but after careful consideration, Yu Qingshu felt that his status was not appropriate, so he politely declined the invitation.
Hua Manhong's family has gone from being incredulous to happily accepting the food at their son-in-law's house.
The two servants hired by the family only ate in the kitchen, and their food consisted of corn porridge and chicken mushroom and pheasant soup, which was a rare delicacy for them.
With the addition of these two people, about three cellars have been dug.
Yu Qingshu planned to dig four rooms, which was almost enough, and no one had any objection to this.
After dinner, Qinghai took two servants to clean up the kitchen, while the others rested.
Yu Qingqing pulled a few people into her boudoir.
Yu Qingqing gently locked the door, then came to the bedside, looked at Hua Qinglu and the others and said seriously, "Dad, Mom, I'm going to show you something later. If you see it, don't make any noise, understand?"
We stumbled upon this item today, and it's incredibly valuable to us. If you have any questions, just wait until I've taken it out and you've had a look. It's not too late to ask."
Yu Qingqing needed to tell them in advance to avoid being too surprised when they saw it and causing suspicion.
She originally felt a bit like a thief, and for some reason she felt guilty.
She also speculated that these things were most likely placed there by tomb robbers, and wondered if they would cause trouble after discovering they were gone. This also proved that there must be a tomb nearby, probably quite large.
Hua Qinglu suppressed his curiosity and said in a low voice, "Qing'er, don't worry! Dad and Mom know their limits and won't yell. If you have anything, just take it out and let us see it!"
Hua Qinglu was also eager to see something, and he didn't know what made his daughter so cautious.
Yu Qingshu also nodded, indicating that he would not speak loudly.
Seeing that they agreed and there were no problems, Yu Qingqing extinguished the oil lamp in the room and then took out the five boxes that had been dug out today from the space.
Then the oil lamp in the room was lit again, and there were several muddy boxes on the ground.
The people present naturally knew that these things came from Yu Qingqing's space.
Yu Qingshu pointed at the box and asked in confusion, "Qing'er, this is the box you dug up today. What's inside that makes you so cautious?"
"Yes, Qing'er, what's in this? It's so mysterious!" Hua Qinglu also came forward to observe the things on the ground.
A box looked to be about one meter long, and its width was about half its length.
Yu Qingqing did not respond immediately, but took a dagger and quickly pried open a rotten box in front of him.
"Ah! What's in here?"
