"Eh? What is this?"
Bian Qiang used the compound eyes of the Scout Bug to see a light spot flickering in the center of the courtyard.
Soon, the detection bug reported back that the flashing light represented that there was a precious metal object underground.
" Haha, precious metal. It must be gold, silver, or treasures. I was just worried about not having enough money to stay, but I really have a pillow when I want to sleep!”
Bian Qiang laughed and looked around. He found a shovel standing in the corner of the wall. He walked over and grabbed it. He returned to the center of the courtyard and began to dig.
After digging for a while, he noticed the zerglings standing at the side and slapped his forehead. Damn it, he didn't use a subordinate like the zerglings and went to dig for himself. What a fool!
Bian Qiang hurriedly commanded the zerglings to work. There was no other way. The zerglings were of low levels and did not have much intelligence. If they did have intelligence, they would not watch Bian Qiang work while they stood at the side.
The treasures were not buried deep, only about 30 centimeters. The zerglings did not know how to use shovels, so they immediately used their sharp claws to dig out a big pit. Soon, they found something.
It was a wooden chest. The zerglings carried the wooden chest up and forcefully opened it. Inside were twenty to thirty pieces of gold and silver jewelry, as well as fifty gold and silver ingots.
Bian Qiang closed the box and let a zerglings carry it. Then, he let the other zerglings bury the hole. She tidied up until she couldn't see it anymore.
After doing all this, Bian Qiang did not dare to stay any longer. He quietly left the courtyard. Not long after, the door of a neighbor's house opened, and an old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties walked out.
Bian Qiang's heart skipped a beat. He pointed at the house and asked with a smile,""Sir, that house is not bad. May I ask who it belongs to? I plan to buy it from him.”
First Master looked at the house that Bian Qiang was pointing at and said,"Oh, that's Third Brother Dai's house. What a coincidence. Third Brother Dai was planning to find a buyer to sell the house.”
"Oh, that's good. Do you know where he's going?”
Bian Qiang laughed secretly. Wasn't Dai Laosan Jiu 'er's unreliable father? Dai Laosan was born a landlord. This chest of gold and silver was probably buried by Dai Laosan's ancestors. Dai Laosan definitely didn't know, or else he wouldn't have sold his wife.
"I don't know. You can go and ask others.”
Sir System shook his head.
"Alright, I'll ask someone else. By the way, do you know how to get to the Cao family's gang class?”
"I know, it's just…"
Bian Qiang learned the address of the Cao family's gang class from the old man and hurried over.
Why did he go to the Cao family's Gang class? Of course, it was to save Jiu 'er's mother. In order to pay off his gambling debt, Dai Laosan sold Jiu 'er's mother to Cao Er. Jiu' er's mother couldn't take it anymore and hanged herself. Originally, Jiu 'er had come to redeem her with money, but unfortunately, he was a step late. He hoped that he could save her in time. Saving a life was better than building a seven-storied pagoda, but Jiu 'er's mother was innocent.
On the main street, Bian Qiang was walking forward in a hurry when he was hit on the back. He staggered and crashed into a stall next to him. Coincidentally, it was a stall that was buying eggs. The eggs rolled out of the rattan basket and broke into pieces.
"I'm sorry!"
A girl in red with two braids ran forward without looking back.
Bian Qiang felt that his back was familiar. Just as he was about to chase after her, the egg seller was a middle-aged woman. She grabbed Bian Qiang and said,"You broke the egg, so compensate me with the egg!”
Bian Qiang subconsciously touched his pocket, and his expression changed. He suddenly broke free and chased after the girl in red, shouting,"Catch the thief! My money was stolen, catch the thief!”
The middle-aged woman was stunned. She picked up the rattan basket with the eggs and chased after them. No matter what, she couldn't afford to pay less for the eggs.
The girl in red ran into the Cao family's gang class. Bian Qiang saw her from afar and was even more certain that the girl in red was Jiu 'er. He looked sideways and found that the middle-aged woman was behind him. He was relieved. He didn't want to renege on the debt. The main thing was that there were only silver ingots in the space. One silver ingot was fifty taels, which was equivalent to two to three hundred dollars. The middle-aged woman couldn't change it no matter what. It would take a lot of time to exchange it for money. It was time to save people. How could he waste time? That was why he chased after her in the name of catching a thief.
Bian Qiang thought of what happened to Jiu 'er in the Cao family's Gang class. He was anxious and thought of a solution that was not a solution. He dashed into the Cao family's courtyard.
At this moment, Jiu 'er was kneeling there begging Cao Er to let her mother go. Cao Er was also forced to do so. He kept shouting that he had spent 20 yuan! In other words, if you give me the money, everything can be discussed.
Jiu 'er was so anxious that she did not understand the meaning behind his words. At this time, Yu Zhan' ao from the Gang Class would have reminded her, but now Bian Qiang happened to come in and grabbed Jiu 'er's arm, shouting,"I caught you. Where's my money? Did you take it?”
Jiu 'er blinked her big eyes and asked in puzzlement,""You, you're the one I bumped into just now. What do you mean? When did I take your money?”
Before Bian Qiang could speak, the middle-aged woman came in and grabbed his arm, saying,"I've caught you. Hurry up and compensate me for the eggs!”
" Don't worry, auntie," Bian Qiang quickly said." I had money in my pocket, but this lady bumped into me. When I searched my pocket, the money disappeared…"
When the middle-aged woman and the others heard this, they looked at Jiu 'er in surprise. They never expected such a beautiful girl to be a thief!
"I admit that I bumped into you, but I didn't steal your money at all." Jiu 'er shook her head repeatedly and said.”
Of course, Bian Qiang knew that was not the case. He just wanted to avoid the middle-aged woman's evasive words and quickly said,"You're so beautiful, I really don't believe it. Hey, why are you kneeling on the ground?”
Jiu 'er lowered her head and said,"I'm begging Second Master Cao to return my mother."”
Bian Qiang looked at Cao Er when he heard that. Cao Er saw that Bian Qiang was dressed extraordinary and there were ten burly men behind him. He did not dare to give him a face and explained,"Tell me, her mother was sold to me by her father. I spent 20 bucks on it.”
Bian Qiang waved his hand." It's nothing more than a matter of money. How about this? I'll give you the money."”
Cao Er was very happy, but then he asked curiously,"Didn't you lose your money?"
Bian Qiang nodded." The money is indeed lost, but I have something better here."”
