Chapter 9 Treasures

Lin Tao's words gave Lin Guodong the feeling of "My family has a son to grow up", so he no longer persuaded him, but let his son do what he wanted. He shouted at Lin Tao's back: "Xiao Tao, just do it! As long as it is not illegal, if there is anything, my dad will take care of you!"

In the previous life, my father stood silently behind Lin Tao. He would really cover Lin Tao with anything, but he never said anything. In this life, he probably was affected by Lin Tao's changes and shouted out all these words.

Lin Tao was a little excited, but turned his head and nodded at his father, picked up a shovel from the yard, tied it to a motorcycle, and started to leave.

"What are Xiaotao doing with iron shovel?" Li Yumei asked strangely with a handful of vegetables in her hand.

"I don't know," Lin Guodong was also wondering, and he couldn't guess it.

"Isn't it going to fight?" Li Yumei's face suddenly changed when she thought of a possibility, "No, I have to call Xiaotao back!" As she said that, she walked out.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Lin Guodong pulled her: "You don't know what Xiao Tao's personality? When he was a child, people who would not fight back even if they were pushed into the water by others would take the initiative to fight?"

"That's right!" Li Yumei was anxious just now. Now she thought about it, she smiled and said, "I still remember that I asked him why he didn't push the other party into the water. He also said, "Wouldn't the other party's clothes be wet?"

"He is in society, but he will suffer a loss!" Lin Guodong sighed and said, "I don't know if he can change it."

"As long as you don't cause trouble!" Li Yumei opened her eyes, "Honest child, there will always be someone who likes it!"

Lin Tao didn't know that his parents were talking about his past and future at this time. He drove a motorcycle and soon arrived at the place he had hoped for yesterday - because it was getting late, and he didn't meet a few acquaintances along the way.

After putting the motorcycle in, Lin Tao looked around and saw that there was no one or a car. The nearby area was still a desolate area, but he was doing it.

Take off the iron shovel and canvas bag on the motorcycle together - the motorcycle always carries two canvas bags, which were originally used to hold fish. Lin Tao and his brother Lin Hai like to catch fish when they are idle, so there are two bags on the car all year round, making it convenient to hold other things.

After getting off the river beach, Lin Tao came to the place where he saw yesterday. There were no footprints nearby. However, the river water rose a little, but it did not affect Lin Tao's actions.

Seeing that there was no one around again, Lin Tao waved the shovel and started digging.

Soon, a pile of sand and stones were turned open. Lin Tao wiped his sweat, stood up straight, and compared the big trees on both sides to the shore. It seemed that the distance was not far away. The sun had completely set and the sky was getting dark. Lin Tao thought to himself, I need to work harder!

The sand pit is getting deeper and deeper, and water has begun to seep below. During the digging process, Lin Tao has adjusted the direction twice - it won't work if he doesn't adjust. The pit I saw in his previous life was on the river beach, but in this life, the river water has not washed away as much river bank, so it will naturally take a little harder to dig it up. Fortunately, it has a deep memory, which also gives Lin Tao a full grasp.

"when!"

When the iron shovel fell down again, the sound made was obviously different from the sand and stones. Lin Tao was ecstatic: This must have been dug!

Throwing away the shovel, Lin Tao jumped into the pit, regardless of the sand, stone, mud and water, quickly plucked it from the bottom of the pit with his hands.

A black pottery jar appeared in front of Lin Tao.

The jar is thirty or forty centimeters tall, with a large belly, and many scars have been knocked out on the edge. Fortunately, the whole thing is not broken yet. The cloth or paper that was originally covered on it has been broken, and a circle of copper wire on the edge is still there, but it is covered with green rust. The mouth of the jar is also filled with sand and stones, and there is still some water inside.

Very heavy!

Although Lin Tao is a college student, he is not a scholar without any power. Children born in farm families have to do farm work, and he is not very strong.

But this jar is really heavy!

Lin Tao used all his strength to move the jar outside the pit, and took a few breaths of heavy breaths, but he was extremely excited - the stone probably wasn't that heavy, and the proportion of copper was not right, there must be something good inside!

At this moment, Lin Tao's knowledge of junior high school chemistry seemed to have returned to his mind. He felt that this time, he was about to publish it!

The jar was almost roughly overturned to the ground. As the sand and stones were poured out, several lead-gray things also rolled out!

Silver ingots!

Almost subconsciously, Lin Tao squatted down, picked up two silver ingots that were the size of a palm, and looked at them carefully.

The boat is tall on both sides and heavy. Because the oxidation loses the original color of silver. I don’t know whether it is because of the original use or the time for burying underground, there are many small pits.

Lin Tao wiped the sand on the ingot, and could barely see the traditional Chinese words "XX silver 10 taels made in the third year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty". Some of the words are blurred and cannot be seen clearly.

It’s ten taels!

Although Lin Tao was not sure how many taels were equal to the current one, two or three dollars per gram, even if it was halfway, this silver ingot was worth several thousand dollars!

Besides, this is still an antique!

Excited, Lin Tao immediately turned the jar - as if he had endless energy now, and the jar was no longer heavy - soon, everything in the jar was poured out.

There is actually a small gold ingot!

Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Lin Tao placed the things inside and began to count them.

One small gold ingot weighs about half a kilogram. One silver ingot is one hundred taels, seven taels are ten taels, twelve taels are twenty taels, dozens are ten taels, dozens are ten taels, and dozens are ten taels, and a lot of copper coins are stringed together with ropes, but when it was poured out of the jar, the rope was broken.

The people who buried this jar are so wealthy at home!

After a while, after excitement, Lin Tao knew that it was not the time to count the "money" here. He quickly sorted the ingots and copper coins into a canvas bag, and then jumped into the pit to explore. Although he was mentally prepared, he had sand and stones to buy, and Lin Tao was still a little disappointed. If only there was another jar!

He threw this jar of an ancient artifact into the pit, picked up a shovel to fill the pit, and cleaned up the traces around him. Lin Tao only carried the canvas bag to the motorcycle twice. This time, he was really tired!

After touching the gold ingot in his pocket, Lin Tao was in a beautiful mood. He drove a motorcycle to the doorstep before he slowed down and stopped - if you want to think about it, how did you explain it to your family!

Do you want to tell your family or not?
