Chapter 445 The Mystery of the Mine Collapse



The mine, which was originally expected to be mined until the end of the year, was closed several months early.

The miners were buzzing with discussion, as the construction period had ended early and they had to find another way out.

The key is that no one knows the real reason why the mine was blocked.

Just because the people brought by the eldest lady told all the miners to evacuate, they didn't expect that the mine would be closed the next day.

Jin Baoer, who made this important decision, had blind trust in Han Zeyu.

In addition, she has read a lot of storybooks in the past two years, so she made a bold guess.

"Brother Yu, tell me the truth, is there any treasure in that mine? Or did you dig up something taboo?"

Han Zeyu pretended to think for a moment, and hinted to her in a profound way that it was most likely the latter.

Jin Baoer gasped and said in shock, "What should I do?"

Han Zeyu looked solemn. He decided to confirm it again.

Jin Baoer was worried and wanted to go with Yu Ge'er.

Han Zeyu was very touched. If there was less eagerness in Jin Baoer's eyes, he might be even more touched.

After the Autumn Examination, Zhou Yi and others are about to return to Beijing, and Su Shien and Tiezhu are also in the team.

Han Zeyu asked a few people to go first, and he wanted to stay for a few more days.

Su Shien knew that something was wrong with the Jin family, so he didn't force it and only told Yu Ge'er to be careful.

Han Zeyu reciprocated by telling her husband to stay out of public view in the next few days.

Su Shien keenly sensed the problem and asked, "What are you going to do under my identity?"

Han Zeyu was shocked: "What's yours is mine. It's just our identities. What's the difference between you and me?"

Su Shien wanted to say that there needs to be some sense of boundaries between couples.

I'd better not say it, I'll definitely get beaten if I say it.

Anyway, he is already a man of both literary and martial arts, a hidden master, so it doesn't hurt to add some prefixes.

Su Shien sighed slightly with melancholy. It's always good to have many skills. Let him be...

The Jin family mine stopped working for a day and a half, and immediately some people became restless.

He mixed into the group of people looking for temporary jobs and asked them the reason indirectly.

These workers inevitably feel resentful because they lost their jobs for no reason.

The Jin family was quite kind. After settling the accounts, they even gave an extra half day's wages.

There are always people who are full of resentment. When they are flattered by others and then invited to dinner, they will tell everything that happened that day.

"I heard that a young man was hammering away along the way and found a lot of rough stones, but other than that, no other anomalies were found."

"How could there be no abnormality? Big brother, please think about it again."

"You're right. Someone dug up something unusual the other day. It looked like it was embedded in the rock wall. The old master was about to go up to check it out when he was called out to greet the young lady."

The person asking the question clenched his hands into fists under the table.

Damn it, it was just that close, why don’t you keep digging!

Originally, their plan was perfect. They would use the Jin family to dig out the sarcophagus and then transport the contents away.

When the miners who have come into contact with the sarcophagus die suddenly, the Jin family will collapse like the Cheng family many years ago.

The spy reported the situation to his superiors. After several people analyzed it, they concluded that the problem was most likely with the person who was traveling with Jin Baoer.

"Are you sure it's Han Zeyu? Isn't he Su Shien's husband?"

"That's him. I heard he's a country bumpkin who only cares about making money. He's not worthy of being in a respectable position. He has a fierce and jealous personality."

"So, it has nothing to do with him?"

"Not entirely. You said that his sudden appearance at the Jin family mine was at Su Shien's behest?"

"It's very likely that Su Shien has extraordinary abilities. It's possible that he sensed something was wrong, but couldn't come forward himself, so he asked his husband to convey the message on his behalf."

The more they analyzed it, the more reasonable it seemed.

Su Shien has a close relationship with Lin Jing, so helping the Jin family means helping Lin Jing.

This guy is too powerful, they are no match for him, so they should continue to report it!

However, a few of them were not idle either, quietly spreading some remarks that were unfavorable to the Jin family.

For example, the Jin family has few descendants and no one to succeed them.

Married women have too much say and their hands are too long.

The pampered young lady was unaware of the sufferings of the common people and resigned without even a break.

The old masters said that there was no problem with the mine and it could be mined for another three or four months.

What does a woman in the inner house know?

How much loss will be caused by closing the mine early? Why doesn’t the head of the Jin family step in to take care of it?

Public opinion escalated and rumors became rampant. Mr. Jin actually inquired about the matter, and Jin Wenxuan didn't know the specific reason.

Lin Jing was worried about his wife because his grandfather had invited him, so he wanted to go with him. After thinking about it, he decided to take his son along as well.

"Son, you are a man. You must do your best to protect your parents."

The one and a half year old fat boy couldn't hear what his father was saying, but instinctively wanted to break free from his arms.

Lin Jing was not willing to let his own human shield go, so he picked up his son and asked him how he could evade responsibility at such a young age.

Facing the helmsman of the Jin family, Jin Baoer was not afraid at all. She lied with her eyes open and made up stories.

She said she had been having a strange dream for seven consecutive days, so she couldn't help but ask a master to tell her fortune. The master pointed out the direction and told her to stop as soon as possible.

She didn't believe it at first, but when she decided to conduct an on-site investigation and set foot in the mine, she indeed felt an ominous aura.

Mr. Jin is easy-going by nature, and since he is old, he is willing to believe what the younger generation says.

"Forget it, as long as you know your limits, our family understands our family, so don't listen to rumors from outside."

Although the Jin family has few descendants, they have few troubles and have four generations living under the same roof, which is a rare blessing.
