Chen Wang couldn't sleep well at night because he had something on his mind.
The next morning, before daybreak, he went out carrying his medicine basket, holding his hunting rifle and his hunting dog.
His wife was already making breakfast, but he didn't wait to eat. He said he would go to the cave first and come back soon to eat.
People these days don’t have many entertainment activities at night, and generally go to bed early and get up early.
But it’s rare for someone to get up so early like Chen Wang did today.
"Huh? Awang, are you going hunting so early?"
When passing by a bungalow, the middle-aged man who had just opened the door saw Chen Wang and asked in surprise.
"No, I woke up early and planned to go to the bamboo forest over there to wander around and see if I could catch some bamboo slugs."
Chen Wang looked at the man and lied with a smile.
"Great, great! You're so hardworking, it would be a shame if you didn't make a fortune!"
The man smiled and boasted, then asked, "Aren't you cooperating with the police to catch the murderer? Have you caught him?"
"Yes, he was caught last night and has been taken to the police station by Officer Liang and his men."
"Really? That's great. It's a pity that I didn't get to see those two bastards, otherwise I would have given them a few good punches. Damn it, they didn't even let the kids go. Damn it!"
Looking at the man who began to curse the murderer, Chen Wang just smiled and said, "Uncle, I'll leave first."
"Okay, okay, go ahead!"
The man smiled and nodded.
Chen Wang quickened his pace and left.
By the time we entered the mountain, it was already bright.
Some people are born with a strong sense of direction, while others have walked a road many times but still can't remember the direction.
Chen Wang is a person with a strong sense of directions. As long as he has been to a place, he basically remembers the general direction and route.
In a short period of time, you will definitely remember how to find it.
They went straight to the cave. During the journey, Dahei smelled the scent of prey several times, but Chen Wang ignored it.
Because we walked so fast and didn't waste time on other things.
After about forty minutes, Chen Wang saw the cave under the cliff that he had seen last night.
Chen Wang walked in with the dog.
As we went deeper into the cave, the light became dimmer and dimmer. After passing the fork in the road, it was basically no different from night, with darkness ahead.
Chen Wang took out a flashlight from the medicine basket, turned on the light and continued moving forward.
Soon they arrived at the innermost part of the cave, where the two murderers lived yesterday.
The space inside is not small, about 20 to 30 square meters, and there is even a flat stone, which can be regarded as a natural stone bed.
The middle-aged man with a scruffy beard yesterday should have been lying on this stone bed at first.
In front of the stone bed, there was a fire that had already gone out.
When the two men were arrested yesterday, the fire was still some red-hot charcoal, which could provide heat for the two men.
The two wooden boxes were placed under the stone bed.
Because of the angle, he was the only one who saw the moment the light hit the box yesterday.
Chen Wang walked over quickly and picked up the two boxes, which felt quite heavy.
I shook it gently and heard a crisp metallic collision sound coming from inside the box. It seemed that there were quite a few things in it.
"What on earth is it?"
Chen Wang became even more curious and placed the wooden box on the stone bed.
Both boxes are exquisitely crafted, and the wood material is also unusual. However, Chen Wang doesn't know much about this and doesn't know what specific wood it is.
There are two small iron locks on the box.
Chen Wang looked around but couldn't find the key. It was very likely that the murderer still had it.
Seeing that the lock did not seem to be difficult to unlock, Chen Wang took down the medicine basket and took out a knife, a medicine shovel and a pair of scissors from it.
After fiddling with it for about twenty minutes, Chen Wang's hands were sore, but he finally managed to pry open one of the locks.
When he opened the wooden box, Chen Wang was stunned by what he saw.
Inside was actually filled with silver dollars, from various regions and years.
Before Chen Wang traveled through time, he followed an anchor who specialized in live broadcasts to appraise treasures.
This anchor is quite funny, and he is quite skilled in treasure appraisal. Every time he starts broadcasting, he is very popular, with often several people online, and sometimes even 100,000+ viewers.
What this anchor is best at is identifying various types of silver dollars.
Chen Wang often watches his live broadcast and learns about silver dollars through it.
The silver dollar ceased to be used in the mid-1950s, and only more than 20 years have passed.
However, some of the very rare silver coins have begun to show their collection value.
Chen Wang quickly checked the silver dollars in the wooden box and found that most of them were rare ones, and the most common ones were not even in there.
Based on his understanding of silver dollars, if this box of silver dollars were all displayed in a live broadcast room decades later, it would probably cause a shock to the entire network.
Not to mention anything else, Chen Wang saw one of them, which was exactly the same as the one that had appeared in the live broadcast room, and its quality was much better. At that time, the anchor quoted a price of 100,000.
Needless to say, the other box was also filled with such silver dollars.
Chen Wang was delighted. After closing the wooden box, he put the two boxes into the medicine basket.
He planned to take the two boxes back and find a good place to hide them, and would not take them out for the time being.
Decades later, when only he and his wife remembered this incident, the price of silver dollars had gone up, and he must have grown old.
When the time comes, he will take it out and distribute it to his descendants as an inheritance, giving them a chance to start anew.
