"Disaster of war?! Hasn't Faoshan been quite peaceful these years?"

"There will be no danger of war. It's not peaceful in the north, but everything will be fine in the south."

"Master Ye is so cautious, and it's a bit unfounded. Does it mean that the higher the skill, the less courage you have?"

Everyone is puzzled.

From the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, Faoshan did not experience much artillery fire for decades. Therefore, the people did not have a clear understanding of the disaster of war.

Now that there is no war, Xiang Nan is about to move away, and I feel that he is worrying too much.

If everyone doesn't believe it, Xiang Nan can't publicize it too much. If he talks too much, he will be in trouble if he is charged with spreading rumors, disturbing people's hearts, and being cowardly before fighting.

Therefore, Xiang Nan didn't say much and took the people on the road directly.

Starting from Fashan, we pass through Shunde, Zhongshan, and Jiangmen all the way to Macau.

There are more than 260 miles along the way. If you walk, it will take two days and two nights.

Fortunately, there were still horse-drawn carriages at that time. Zhang Yongcheng and Ye Zhun could ride in the horse-drawn carriages instead of walking, so it was quite easy.

Other decoration teams and transportation teams mostly have to walk.

Jinshan Xun led his brothers to guard the left and right sides on horseback, and explored the front and rear outposts.

They are Qilu men. Qilu has produced thieves since ancient times, and their equestrian skills are also quite good.

Fortunately, the south is still peaceful at this time. In addition, Xiang Nan's team is huge, with nearly a hundred people. They are also carrying shovels and hoes. Although they are fully armed, they are still better than bare hands.

Therefore, along the way, many young people were frightened and did not dare to attack them. They watched them walk away.

…

"Looking for Jinshan, are you okay?" Xiang Nan stuck his head out and asked.

"Don't worry, Brother Wen, there were a few restless boys who came to test them, but I ran them all away." Jinshan said with a carefree smile.

Although he is a rough guy with little knowledge, he has been around for a long time. He can basically tell the difference between those who are rushing, those who are digging holes, and those who are exploring the wind.

Some little thieves inevitably get jealous when they see a dozen large trucks.

But when Jinshan's brothers noticed it, they stepped forward and shouted. With their big bodies and loud voices, they immediately scared those people away.

So nothing happened the whole way.

"Okay, I'm tired of you." Xiang Nan nodded.

"I haven't said anything yet, just ask brother, don't worry if you leave it to me." Jinshan said with a smile.

…

"Ah Wen, you are worrying too much. The world is generally quite peaceful now." Zhou Qingquan said with a smile, "Otherwise, those of us doing business would not dare to go on the road."

Xiang Nan nodded.

The economy in the south has been active in recent years, with constant business trips on the road, and it has been prosperous for a while. It is said that unruly people come out of poor mountains and rivers, but in rich areas, there are much fewer groups of bandits.

Even if there are, the local militia will be organized immediately to carry out a cleanup. Just like the Guangzhou businessmen, they once formed an army with a scale of 4,000 people, ten regiments, and guns. With such strength, any bandit can defeat them. Frightened and ran away.

However, there are fewer robbers and robbers in the world, but there are more bandits and militia groups in official circles.

They set up cards on the road to collect fees, take cards for food and drink, and extort pedestrians. They were more ruthless than bandits and robbers. Along the way, Xiang Nan spent hundreds of dollars just to pay for the road.

However, after passing many checkpoints, we finally arrived in Macau, and it was a worthwhile trip.

…

Xiang Nan led the team to his home, and then arranged for people to unload the truck and move all the gold, silver and jewelry upstairs.

Then, he asked the decoration team to carry out construction according to his design.

The drawings were designed by Xiang Nan himself to ensure safety and reliability.

Immediately, the decoration team opened up the wooden floor and started digging a big hole in the hall.

"Awen, what's the purpose of digging up such a nice house?" Zhou Qingquan asked puzzledly.

"I want to dig a storage room here." Xiang Nan explained, "Brother Quan, if you think about it, once the war starts, there will be refugees and starving people everywhere. The price of rice, cloth, meat, vegetables, and oil will all soar. .

When the time comes, let alone drinking tea in a teahouse, it will be good to have a bowl of rice. So I must save more food to prepare for emergencies."

During World War II, Macau was a neutral zone, so a large number of people flocked here to take refuge. However, the Japanese blocked the ports and land, preventing supplies from entering. As a result, Macau fell into a famine, and tens of thousands of people starved to death.

In this case, of course, you must make preparations in advance. Otherwise, when the time comes, no one will be able to buy a bowl of porridge.

"You are really thoughtful." Zhou Qingquan smiled and nodded.

…

In the next few days, Xiang Nan and his family stayed in the inn.

During the day, Xiang Nan came over to supervise the work and guide these workers in their work.

In addition, he also helped Zhou Qingquan with the details of buying a house.

Zhou Qingquan not only wanted to buy a house, he also wanted to open a factory in Macau, so he had even more requirements.

Just when the two of them were busy, something happened.

"Master, please go out and take a look. There is a group of people at the door, clamoring to see you." Uncle Wang hurriedly walked in and said.

Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then walked out of the room.

At the gate, Jinshan Zhaozheng and his brothers were making noise with a group of people.

"This is our ancestral home, you all, get out of here."

"Yes, this piece of land was left by our grandfather, you foreigners, get out of here~"

"They took over our house and dug out our treasures. Get out of here and hand over our treasures."

They argued loudly.

"Get out of here. If anyone dares to step forward, believe it or not, I will chop you!"

"If you have the guts, come up here and let me see my Fanziquan~"

"Damn it, why are you arguing? If you have the guts, just have a fight with me and see if I don't beat you to pieces."

Jinshan Xian led his brothers to scold them.

…

"Looking for Jinshan, what's going on?" Xiang Nan asked.

"Brother Wen, these people insist that this piece of land was left by their grandfather, and that the treasures we dug out of the ground belong to them, and they want us to return it to them." Jinshan Xian explained.

Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.

Seeing that they hired so many people to dig holes here and hauled out so much soil every day, these people must have thought they were digging for some kind of treasure, so they came here to look for trouble.

After realizing this, Xiang Nan felt dumbfounded.

"Looking for Jinshan, open the door." Xiang Nan said immediately.

Jinshan Zhao immediately opened the door.

Xiang Nan stepped out to welcome him, "I asked Ye, which of the villagers is the leader?"

"Me~" A man wearing silk and satin who looked like he had some money came out and said.

"What is your name?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.

"My name is Niu Fenzhi. This land belongs to my family. The treasures in the land should belong to me if they are dug out." Niu Fenzhi said.

"Why? You said it was your family's land. What evidence do you have? Take out the house deed and the land deed." Xiang Nan stretched out his hand and said.

Of course Niu Fenzhi didn't. "These villagers can all testify to me that this land is passed down from our ancestors."

"Then why is it in my hands again?" Xiang Nan asked.

"I sold it a few years ago, but I didn't expect that my great-grandfather hid the treasure underneath." Niu Fenzhi said plausibly, "I sold the land at first, but I didn't sell my great-grandfather's treasure, so I have to put it away
