The little eyes looked at Cen Zixiang as if he was a fool, as if to say, how could you ask such a stupid question?
She remembered that when she first read the novel, it described how rich this wealth was. Even for an uneducated person like her, she knew how such a huge fortune could be embezzled.
The male and female protagonists are both the pride of the family raised by cadres. They are very short-sighted and bold. They dare to put anything into their own pockets.
Cen Zixiang was stunned for a moment, then he was happy. He said that the girl he met was definitely aware of the situation. He had been having a hard time all the way, thinking about how to persuade Ye Zi to hand over these money to build the now very poor country.
Although he was born in the 21st century, a slightly impetuous era, all the young people who grew up under the red flag were full of patriotic passion.
"Really? Don't you feel sad?" Cen Zixiang asked jokingly.
Chen Ye rolled his eyes unceremoniously: "What are you saying? Not to mention that the so-called treasure is nowhere to be found. Even if I find it, I wouldn't dare to take it for myself."
"Eat as much as your stomach can hold. I'm afraid I'll eat an elephant in one mouthful and die of bloating."
She is not a fool. If she really wants to keep it for herself, she would never tell the two people about the so-called treasure. She is thinking that if she hands it over, the search process requires witnesses trusted by the two countries.
She was really afraid that if she handed over the treasure, others would suspect her of corruption. She had done a good thing, but people would suspect her. Where would she go to seek justice then?
Having said that, it's hard to say whether the baby exists or not. It's said that children who grew up in the city are very cunning. Look, he started to test her for no apparent reason.
Fortunately, she had nothing to hide, otherwise she would be so scared to be in contact with these two people all day long!
"Hehe, brother, I was wrong, this is my sister," Cen Zixiang gave a thumbs up.
If he saw that there were really a lot of treasures, he would probably hide one or two of them secretly to show how generous his sister is.
Chen Ye was not very angry. Everyone was about to face a large sum of unexpected wealth, and would be more or less tempted but then cautious. Everyone has greed, but it depends on whether you can control your greed.
As for the temptation of these two people, it is because they were born in military families and were probably taught to be loyal to the country since childhood. It is not normal for them to test it.
"I'm not angry. It's normal for you to be so suspicious. Everyone has selfish motives." To put it bluntly, if the description of this treasure in the novel was not so shocking, she might have wanted to keep it for herself.
Soon the three of them arrived at a three-way intersection. This place was similar to a bulging gourd, and was obviously much wider than the road they had just walked. However, the wind was much smaller here than at the entrance, so it was quite suitable for rest.
"Should we take a break right away or continue?" Gao Fei asked Chen Ye and the other person.
Chen Ye touched his stomach. It should be almost dark outside by now. "How about we fill our stomach first?"
If you ask whether they are tired or not, of course they are tired. They have been in the mountains for seven days. The conditions in the mountains are not as good as at home. They have to pay attention to safety and be vigilant at all times. They have no chance to rest properly.
If the three of them were not in good physical condition, they would be extremely sleepy by now.
Cen Zixiang put down his backpack and started to get firewood outside: "I'm hungry too. I'll eat first and then decide whether to continue." If he doesn't have a full stomach, he may not be able to run fast if he encounters danger.
The three of them had no objection and started a fire right away. The temperature inside the cave was lower than outside. Fortunately, they were experienced and brought dry firewood with them, otherwise they would have been freezing all night.
The two of them started a fire, and Chen Ye moved closer to the three intersections to observe carefully. She knew of course that she should take the middle intersection, but she was also curious about what it would be like if she went to the other two intersections.
She often went into the mountains and had seen many caves, but this was the first time she had seen a cave like this. She felt that this cave would not be small and it was very likely the largest cave she had ever seen.
Moreover, the location is quite hidden. If she had not encountered the rare Dendrobium, she would have been tempted to come down and pick it. She might not have thought that the cave on the map was right on the cliff. No wonder she always felt that the treasure location was a bit strange.
"What do you think? Should we try the other two roads?" If we want to explore the other two roads, they both need to agree.
"Go ahead, I'm also extremely curious. If there really is a treasure here, how did they get it in? This is incredible, to find such a natural hiding place."
The key point is that most treasures are basically gold, silver, and jewelry. They are so heavy. How did they get them into the mountains and send them here? How much manpower and material resources must have been wasted.
The main thing is to keep it secret. With so many people who know this place, how can the person who hid the things trust them? If things go wrong, the people who helped pick things up might be reduced to skeletons now.
Gao Fei was more steady than the other two: "Let's follow the map first to see if there is any so-called treasure. After we come back, we can go to the other two places to have a look."
"That way, if we really encounter uncontrollable danger, we can leave here directly and won't make a wasted trip."
Chen Ye and Cen Zixiang exchanged a glance and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Chen Ye smacked his lips. This salted barbecue used to be so delicious, but now it tasted bland. It really proved the saying that it is difficult to live frugally after eating delicious food. After eating ordinary food, it would taste bad.
Cen Zixiang also had no appetite for food. He had not suffered much since he came here. He only suffered a little when he lived in the Youth League Home for a few days when he first came here. The key point was that the cooking skills of those people in the Youth League Home were so bad that it was hard to describe.
Later, the two of them just stayed at Grandpa Chen's house, under the pretext that they were close enough to keep an eye on the progress of the new house. After they became familiar with Grandpa Chen, he often coaxed Xiao Shuan to stay with them to improve their lives. The food there was really better than when they were in the capital.
"When we get back, I'll definitely get some good food and have Shuanzhu prepare a big table of delicious food for the kid."
"Can't you do it yourself?" Chen Ye was unhappy. I don't even exploit my brother like this.
"Girl, you don't understand. If I had that skill, why would I ask Xiao Shuanzhu for help?" He can cook but the taste is just average, not delicious but not terrible, just the level of an ordinary person.
Chen Ye shut up. She was similar to Cen Zixiang. She had never eaten delicious food. She thought her own cooking was really good, but when compared with other people's cooking, the difference was like that between a top chef and a cafeteria auntie.
