Siheyuan: The beauty Xueru Huizhen, the birds are jealous
Chapter 11 An unexpected gain
He pretended nothing had happened, went back to the silk shop with Chen Xueru, and stayed with her until nightfall.
After seeing Chen Xueru fall into a deep sleep, he finally decided to leave and disappeared quietly into the night.
"fine,"
"With this skill of chasing cicadas in eight steps, it will be much more convenient to leave the city and go to the suburbs late at night." Bicycles were too scarce in this era, and riding one at night would be too noisy.
Not to mention disturbing the enemy spies, even if we were mistaken for enemy spies by the patrolling military control committee, it would be a joke.
After a long journey, Yang Ming arrived at a village outside of Sijiu City. This was exactly where he was going to explore next.
Although this place is not deserted, there are only a dozen or so households scattered around. Following the instructions marked on the map, Yang Ming finally found his goal—a residence that looked large but slightly shabby.
His heart began to beat uncontrollably, and he felt nervous. However, with his keen perception, he soon realized that there was no one in the house. So he stepped into the house carefully.
"Huh?" He looked around and found that the furnishings in the house were extremely simple, with the furniture being plain and slightly old.
The old woodwork still had mottled black and brown marks on it, and it looked no different from an ordinary farmhouse.
However, one thing aroused his vigilance - this residence was unusually tidy, almost unnaturally tidy, as if someone had deliberately erased all traces left behind.
Thinking that the owner of this house was most likely an enemy spy, Yang Ming's doubts were slightly relieved. He continued to search the house carefully.
Soon, he discovered a cleverly designed mechanism. He gently touched the mechanism, and the bricks and stones under his feet slowly moved away, revealing the entrance to a basement.
But Yang Ming did not step in immediately.
He recalled similar scenes in movies and TV shows he had seen, and was worried that there might be dangerous or harmful gases hidden in the basement. Therefore, he waited for a while, making sure that the air was circulating and there were no unusual movements, before carefully entering the basement.
It is worth mentioning that when he took out the flashlight he carried with him to explore, he found that there was no electric lighting in the basement. There was only a kerosene lamp placed on the table, and there was still unburned oil in the lamp.
In addition, there were bedding and other daily necessities placed nearby, as well as obvious signs of human habitation.
"It seems," he thought to himself, "this basement should be a secret place for temporary refuge." Although he was a little disappointed that he could not find any trace of the enemy spies, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. All signs showed that this should be the place where the enemy spies were hiding and lurking.
However, they seemed to have gotten wind of it and moved elsewhere in advance. Nevertheless, Yang Ming did not find nothing in the basement. He found three large wooden boxes.
One of the boxes was filled with various weapons, including common firearms such as pistols and rifles, as well as a machine gun, grenades, and various bullets. Even more shocking was that some tightly sealed explosives were also hidden inside. Seeing this, Yang Ming couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart. He did not intend to embezzle these dangerous goods.
The other box was actually filled with golden yellow croaker. Of course, the yellow croaker here does not refer to edible yellow croaker.
It was not a thing, but a precious gold bar, just like the yellow croaker that he had accidentally found in the black market before. What was hidden here was a very special gold bar.
After measurement, ten small gold bars are equivalent to one thick gold bar, and its weight converted into today's measurement standards is about 312.5 grams.
Today, the value of gold per gram has climbed to as high as $32. It is not difficult to imagine how huge this wealth is.
However, when Yang Ming recalled the historical records that the bald man carried a large amount of gold when he retreated, everything seemed to be reasonably explained.
It is very likely that the thick gold bars in this box were the funds reserved for them. As for the other box, its contents were even more astonishing.
There were three small radios and a set of special generators placed inside, which were obviously carefully prepared to keep in touch with the accomplices.
Seeing this, Yang Ming quickly moved the box of gold bars to his personal space, and kept the rest of the items as they were and put them back in their original places.
Afterwards, Yang Ming left the place.
But there is more than one red dot on the map, there are other marked points waiting for Yang Ming to explore.
This time, the location indicated by the red dot was hidden deep in the mountains.
And this is where Yang Ming's newly acquired treasure hunting skills come into play.
Based on the traces in the forest, Yang Ming quickly found his target - a hidden cave entrance.
After entering, Yang Ming discovered that the internal structure of the cave had been artificially transformed into the style of an air-raid shelter.
This design makes the entrance of the cave appear extremely narrow at first glance, only enough for one person to pass through, but after walking dozens of steps deeper, it suddenly becomes spacious.
The supplies in the cave are even more than those in the previous basement.
It can even be said that the supplies in the previous basement are nothing compared to what is here.
In one of the rooms, Yang Ming found a large number of sacks piled up, which were filled with intact rice.
Although this rice is not new rice but old rice that has been stored for a while, the quantity is staggering.
A rough estimate is that the rice weighs at least hundreds of thousands of kilograms.
Yang Ming transferred all the rice to his personal space without hesitation.
In the next room, there is a pile of ground white flour, which is white in color and of high quality, far superior to the common whole wheat flour on the market.
Walking into the next room, Yang Ming saw barrels of packaged soybean oil. This was undoubtedly another unexpected gain, which made Yang Ming very happy.
Because in this era, rice and flour can probably still be purchased through the market, and Yang Ming's portable space is also capable of producing these.
But oil is different. It needs to be manually squeezed by machines, which is relatively difficult to obtain.
As for the remaining rooms, they store materials that are easy to preserve for a long time, such as sugar, cotton cloth and canned food.
After some searching, Yang Ming's personal space has turned into a large warehouse.
Yang Ming was pleasantly surprised to find that his portable space had expanded. This change was like timely rain, solving his urgent problem. Originally, facing the mountains of various materials, he was worried about how to properly store them.
However, nowadays there is more space and handling of these materials has become easy.
Yang Ming returned to Sijiu City with a full load, and he couldn't wait to find Captain Yang.
"Brother Yang, look what treasure this is?" Yang Ming mysteriously took out the parchment in his hand and showed it to Captain Yang.
After listening to Yang Ming's narration and the potential meaning of the lines and dots on the parchment, Captain Yang was first stunned, and then he could hardly contain his excitement.
He knew very well that if this parchment was really as Yang Ming said, it would be a major discovery and contribution.
