"How could this happen? How could this happen?"
"Nobody knows this secret, and I buried it myself. These boxes are all from the same batch back then."
"How come everything inside is gone?"
"What on earth is going on???"
Gu Weiguo suddenly realized something, and he roared at Fang Junfeng, "Fang Junfeng, did you hide all of our Gu family's assets, and now you're putting on this act?"
"I'm warning you, if you know what's good for you, you'd better hand over all of the Gu family's assets right now, or don't blame me for being ruthless!!!"
Upon hearing Gu Weiguo's words, Fang Junfeng not only wasn't angry, but instead burst into laughter: "Gu Weiguo, do you think I would hide your Gu family's assets? What's wrong with your brain? In this mass grave, where could I possibly hide anything?"
"Besides, your Gu family still has quite a few boxes that haven't been dug out yet. If you don't believe me, you can dig some out yourself and see if what I'm saying is true!!!"
Gu Weiguo's face flushed red. He looked at the boxes on the ground. There were only seven or eight, but he had buried more than ten boxes back then. In other words, there were still several boxes underground that had not been dug out.
And so it was.
He turned directly to Gu Qingye, who was already somewhat terrified, and said, "Qingye, come on, let's dig it ourselves. I don't believe that our Gu family's chest is empty either."
Gu Qingye took a deep breath and nodded vigorously: "Dad, you're right, the boxes in our Gu family's collection could never be empty!"
"Someone has definitely hidden all the valuables inside!!!"
Fang Junfeng overheard the conversation between the father and son, and realized that there was no longer any respect for him as the father-in-law/grandfather.
However, he didn't care.
Because he knew that regardless of whether he had seized half of the Gu family's assets, he had already completely broken ties with the Gu family.
They definitely won't be able to be in-laws anymore.
on the contrary.
He's now wondering why the Gu family's assets have also vanished, just like theirs, the Fang family's.
Logically speaking, only a handful of people on their side knew this secret, and he had also killed all the servants who participated in burying it.
Apart from his father-in-law, who was not killed, almost no one else knew about it.
Moreover, back then, he had his father-in-law guard the mass grave, which further created the impression that this place was an incredibly terrifying place filled with evil spirits.
This deterred others from coming here.
In fact, all the servants they killed back then were indeed buried here.
To some extent, this is indeed a mass grave.
But now, not only has the Fang family's assets disappeared, but the Gu family's assets have also vanished.
This is very suspicious.
Could it be that his father-in-law secretly transferred these family assets while he was guarding the place, and at the same time ordered people to make the same boxes, seals and locks, which led to this situation?
For some reason, the more Fang Junfeng thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Otherwise, he really couldn't imagine who could have moved all those priceless assets inside those boxes so silently.
"No, I must go find my brother-in-law later and question him about whether his father told him anything before he died, or whether he knew that his father had taken all the property of the Fang and Gu families."
"No, even if we question him, he probably won't tell us. We have to arrest him and torture him to extract the information!"
Once this thought came to mind, Fang Junfeng could no longer sit still.
He looked at Gu Weiguo, who was still frantically digging in the dirt, and said directly, "Weiguo, you don't need to dig anymore, the boxes inside are definitely empty."
"Now I guess who might have run off with our fortune!"
