Chapter 4 Treasure



Mr. Huo passed away on the third day after Huo Qiqi traveled through time.

According to Mr. Huo's last wishes, his funeral should be kept simple and not extravagant. However, due to his many contributions to the country, many dignitaries and officials came to his funeral, as well as some people who wanted to make extra money.

Huo Qiqi didn't recognize many of the people who came to her grandfather's funeral, but she knew that some of them were sincere and some were calculating.

As the president of a listed company in the 21st century, Huo Qiqi naturally handled the situation with ease, speaking differently to different people.

Director Xu of the Public Security Bureau, whom Grandpa had asked for, also showed up at the funeral. Director Xu had joined the army in his early years and later became a public security officer. After years of hard work, he became the head of a bureau. Huo Qiqi could see that Director Xu had some feelings for her grandfather.

Director Xu's behavior was no different from everyone else's. After giving Huo Qiqi a few simple instructions, he left. After Director Xu left, Huo Qiqi tossed the note in her hand into the space and continued to receive other mourners.

After sending her grandfather's ashes to the cemetery, Huo Qiqi felt like she was about to collapse.

He took out the note given by Director Xu from the space. There was not much content on the note, just his work address and home address. Director Xu's meaning was very clear. He remembered the kindness of Mr. Huo and would take care of the poor little Huo Qiqi at the appropriate time.

Director Xu briefly explained why he left the funeral in a hurry. He was mainly afraid of causing trouble for Huo Qiqi. As director, he had many competitors. If he was taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, Huo Qiqi would be in trouble.

On the night of the funeral, Huo Qiqi had a very realistic dream.

The original owner's grandparents and parents appeared in the dream. They told Huo Qiqi that they were now a family and asked Huo Qiqi to take good care of herself and not to let herself be wronged.

Afterwards, she dreamed of the original owner. The original owner told Huo Qiqi that she was going to follow her parents and grandparents, and asked Huo Qiqi to live well for her. She felt that her life was too hard, but she would be able to reunite with her family after death. She was very grateful to Huo Qiqi and hoped that Huo Qiqi could live for herself and freely.

Early the next morning, Huo Qiqi took out two big steamed buns stuffed with beef and a bottle of fresh milk from the space. She was a little weak and needed to be well nourished. After eating the big steamed buns and drinking the milk, she planned to go and see the treasure that Grandpa Huo left for her.

Huo Qiqi now lives in a detached villa, which belongs to the old house of the Huo family. It was built by old man Huo with great effort. The decoration is high-end and elegant. All the furniture in the house is made of mahogany. The house covers an area of ​​2-3 acres. The house covers an area of ​​800 square meters, with 3 floors above and below, and 4 floors including the cellar. There are more than 10 rooms on each floor. The yard is full of green plants and some flowers. Behind the yard are several vegetable plots of different sizes. There is also an area fenced off for raising chickens, ducks and geese, but they are not raised there now.

In today's terms, a Western-style house is a large courtyard with a high gate, so it is very private and there are few residents around. Even in the daytime, it is not a big problem to go to the cellar to search for treasure.

Huo Qiqi felt that her safety would be in great danger after Mr. Huo left, so she decided to put the treasure away early.

Huo Qiqi found the entrance to the cellar according to the method taught by Grandpa Huo before he died. Maybe it was because she had more strength after drinking the water from the space well, but Huo Qiqi opened the entrance to the cellar without much effort.

Huo Qiqi was worried about the lack of oxygen inside the cellar, so after the cellar was opened, Huo Qiqi did not go in immediately. She took out a candle from the space, lit it with a lighter, and placed it at the entrance of the cellar. After finding that the candle was not extinguished, she entered the cellar with confidence.

Huo Qiqi roughly estimated the size of the cellar, which was about 400-500 square meters. There were several grooves on the wall of the cellar, and there was a worn-out oil bowl in each groove. Huo Qiqi lit the oil bowl with a lighter and saw the scene inside the cellar clearly.

In the cellar, there are wooden shelves. Judging from the material, these shelves are all mahogany furniture. The shelves are labeled with rice, noodles, oil, incense, medicinal materials and treasure chests.

Huo Qiqi planned to check out the medicinal herbs and treasure chests first. There weren't many medicinal herbs, only two large boxes containing processed ginseng and ganoderma lucidum. They looked quite old, the youngest being 60 years old.

The treasure chests were exaggerated, with 50-60 large boxes. After opening them, I found that one-third of them were small yellow croakers, one-third were jade and jewelry, and one-third were calligraphy and paintings.

Among the treasure chests, I also found a small, quaint box containing several house deeds. I looked and saw there were seven. Two deeds were for houses in Hai City; three in Jing City, one of which was the house I was currently living in, and two were for courtyard houses next to the Forbidden City; and two in Su City, both were for houses.

Seeing these properties, Huo Qiqi couldn't stop smiling.

Huo Qiqi turned around and looked at the shelf with the word "incense" written on it. What kind of magical thing was this? The shelf was filled with high-quality rosewood, which was very valuable.

Referring to the historical trend of the original world, it is now 1975, and this movement will end soon. She wants to take advantage of this period to accumulate funds and wealth.

In this era, there are not many things that can be done to accumulate funds and wealth. Huo Qiqi plans to do business in the black market and exchange the materials in the space for items with appreciation potential. After the reform and opening up, she will set up her own company and develop her career.
