Chapter 57 Money
The good news is that after this incident was spread, it did divert everyone's attention, and everyone's attention was directed to the mountains.
The bad news is that there was actually money buried there, and everyone made a big fuss over the money.
Lu Xing couldn't help but ask the system, "Did you know that there was silver buried down there?"
[No, there's a chest buried underneath. Inside is silver and some banknotes, which fits the host's description of something small and easily noticeable.]
[From what I've observed recently, most people care about money the most, so I chose this location specifically. Actually, there are other places where bones are buried. Host, do you need them? I can also provide the location.]
Because Lu Xing didn't know what was nearby at the time, his description was rather general. He simply said that he wanted something that could attract other people's attention.
She still remembered the first time she chatted with the system and asked if she wanted to find something related to spaceships, but the system only performed a rigid search.
The final result was that there was an identical character "Yu" in the literal sense.
Compared to the current somewhat confusing results, she was more surprised by the changes in the system.
Now when she asks the system for help, the system will first consider her purpose for doing this, and then look for relevant information.
"System, do you feel that you are becoming more and more humane?"
[Is there a host? ]
She thought of the sudden change in the mission progress before, "System, what is our current mission progress?"
[It's 42%, host.]
"It seems like the higher the mission progress, the more user-friendly the system becomes. Perhaps completing the mission will also benefit you."
[The main system did say that completing the mission is beneficial to both the host and the system. This might be the reason.]
The system happily sent a flower-scattering emoji and projected it directly to Lu Xing.
Lu Xing was also happy for the system.
But this happiness did not last long, Lian Hua suddenly came to the door.
The village has been quiet these days and there is no one chatting at the village entrance. Lu Xing simply stays at home, cleaning the house and feeding the pigs.
Lianhua wanted to find Lu Xing to tell him about what happened on the mountain, so she looked for him outside for a while and finally found his home.
As soon as she entered the door, she looked at Lu Xing with resentment, "Didn't you tell me that what you said was a lie?"
Lu Xing felt a little guilty when she looked at him. "I did make that up. Who would have thought there was something buried there?"
She didn't expect that this young man would be so lucky and get the things out of me.
"Lu Jiayuan is so lucky! He actually dug up some real gold and silver for him."
Lian Hua didn't come here to blame her, but after hearing what she said, she immediately changed the subject.
Too many things have happened recently, but Liu Hehua has no time to deal with her, and Lu Xing has been nowhere to be found, which has left her with a lot of things to say that she has been holding back for several days.
Today, she finally got the chance to tell him, "The news spread the day Lujiayuan was dug up. Someone in our village went digging with a hoe that very night."
"We dug several large holes and didn't find any new ones until early morning."
Speaking of this, she seemed to be enjoying it a bit. "You didn't see them coming back this morning covered in dust and dirt, and they insisted they were digging beans."
"These past few days, there have been groups of people carrying hammers and running up the mountain every day, saying they are going to dig wild vegetables. Everyone knows what they are doing."
Lu Xing brought her a stool to sit on, and she picked beans beside him, preparing to make some fried noodles for lunch.
Although she didn't go out these days, the system broadcast to her everything that happened on the mountain, so when Lian Hua was talking about this, she could still pick beans slowly.
She planned to make some bean stewed noodles for lunch, as the beans in the field would become old if she didn't eat them.
Looking at Lian Hua who was particularly excited beside him, Lu Xing was a little curious, "Why don't you join us to watch the fun? Don't you love watching the fun the most?"
"You don't know how furious some people in the village were when the silver incident came out. Even Lu Jiayuan's house was robbed."
"Is this true? It's only been a few days since he dug out the silver? Are these people just like this? Doesn't the village chief care?"
In Lu Xing's memory, Lu Zhengde was quite responsible. He would usually mediate any small conflicts. This time, since Lu Jiayuan's house was robbed, he should also take care of it.
Speaking of this, Lian Hua felt that he was a bit unlucky. "How could he have the time? Although our village has been quiet these days, there is chaos over the mountain. Our village and Xiaoniu Village have fought several times, and now they are fighting over which side of the mountain will belong to us."
"The village chief has been practically living there these days. Several people have been fighting over the land, and their heads have nearly been broken."
For some reason, more and more things have happened in Xiaoshi Village in the past two years, and Lu Zhengde has become busier and busier.
This time, he was still busy at home when he was hurriedly dragged to the scene of a fight. In order to stop the fight, he was hit twice.
Later, the matter became more and more serious, and people from both villages got involved. He was so busy that he had no time to go down the mountain.
His wife was teaching in the city, so Liu Hehua took care of all the household chores by herself. She was so busy that she had no time to go out for a walk.
At first, Lian Hua wanted to go to the mountain to watch the fun, and Lu Dazhuang also said that he wanted to go to the mountain to try his luck and see if he could dig up some money.
As a result, a fight broke out immediately afterwards, and seeing the villagers being carried down, she didn't dare to go.
She also stopped Lu Dazhuang. With her son's brain, he might get hit on the head if he went there.
She heard all the subsequent news from other young wives.
"Seize land? Seize what land?"
"The land for digging money, the hillside has been divided into plots of land, and now they are all digging their own plots."
Because the system said that the silver dug out from Lu Jiayuan was not far from the box.
So Lu Xing was a little curious, "Did anyone find anything new later?"
"Yes, someone dug up a chest full of silver and banknotes, and they took everything away."
Speaking of this, she felt a little relieved. She heard that the box containing the silver was not big. With so many people fighting for such a small amount of things, if Lu Dazhuang went there, he would definitely get hurt.
"I heard from them that the money might belong to Landlord Wang."
Before the reform and opening up, Landlord Wang was the largest landlord in their area. The people in Xiaoshi Village and several nearby villages all cultivated his land.
These villages are not rich villages. They farm the land of the landlords and can hardly save much money throughout the year, let alone save a box of money to hide.
If we talk about having money here, it’s only Landlord Wang who has the money to do this.
I heard that when the land was divided in the Landlord game, it took three days and three nights to move all the money found in Landlord Wang's house. It was all the dirty money obtained by squeezing the villagers.
Later, when the criticism and struggle campaign was launched, everyone in Landlord Wang's family died, and his house had long been demolished to become a school and a warehouse.
So those who were digging for the money were thinking, if the money was really buried by Landlord Wang, and now all his family members are dead, then whoever digs it up will get it.
"Landlord Wang's?"
The money in that box was not a lot for Landlord Wang. Was it necessary for him to go all the way up the mountain to bury it?
Lu Xing was a little skeptical.
"System, do you know whose money that is?"
[Let me check the database. Since this mountain was discovered, only one person has buried something at this location, but I'm not sure if it was the owner of this money.]
"who?"
Wang Boan, the village chief of Xiaoniu Village.
