839 I’ve Never Heard Of Them, But I Want To Acquire Them
Xu Jingxin reached out and grabbed a gold ingot. She felt that it was heavy. “How many pounds does this one weigh?”
Ye Feng also grabbed one and looked at it. “This is ten taels.”
Xu Jingxin looked at him in surprise. “How did you know?”
Ye Feng pointed the bottom of the gold ingot at her. “It’s written below.”
Xu Jingxin immediately rolled her eyes. She thought that this guy was knowledgeable. “How much can such a gold ingot be worth?”
“I remember that the auction house in Xiangjiang had sold a gold ingot from the Qing Dynasty for about 1.1 million yuan,” Ye Feng answered as he opened another box. As expected, it was also a box of gold ingots.
“One of them can be sold for 1.1 million? How many gold ingots are there in this box?” Xu Jingxin’s jaw dropped in shock.
“There should be more than 200 in this box.” Ye Feng estimated that the two boxes added up to about four to five hundred.
Xu Jingxin calculated and her mouth opened even wider. “In other words, these two boxes of gold ingots can be sold for more than 500 million yuan?”
Ye Feng nodded. “Almost.”
Xu Jingxin looked at him with a bewildered expression. “Tell me honestly, how did you know there was a treasure inside?”
This matter was a little unbelievable. The gold was hidden so deeply that no one except the owner of the gold would know.
But Ye Feng knew it. He even found it accurately.
This simply couldn’t be explained with common sense.
“Are you sure you want to hear it?” Ye Feng looked at her faintly.
This gaze immediately made Xu Jingxin’s hair stand on end.
She had heard and seen many stories of people killing each other after finding the treasure because of the uneven distribution of the spoils.
Although she did not plan to split the gold and knew that Ye Feng would not harm her, she was still shocked.
“Hahaha, I’m just joking with you. Actually, I accidentally got the news, so I wanted to try my luck. I didn’t expect to really find it.” Ye Feng immediately regained his smile. He casually gave a perfunctory reply.
With Xu Jingxin’s intelligence, she naturally knew that he was lying, but since he didn’t want to say it, she didn’t bother to ask.
“So many gold ingots, how are we going to get them up?”
“I brought a woven bag.”
Ye Feng took out the woven bag that he had prepared beforehand, and the two of them started to store the gold ingots inside.
This was because the quality of this woven bag was worrying. One could not contain too much, or it would easily tear.
The two of them counted as they packed. In the end, each bag contained a hundred gold ingots, a total of five bags.
The two of them added up to a total of 500 gold ingots, not one more nor one less.
Ye Feng was very satisfied with the harvest of this operation. He smiled and said to Xu Jingxin: “I will go up first, you tie these woven bags to the rope.”
Xu Jingxin hesitated. “Are you leaving me here alone?”
Ye Feng placed his hand on her shoulder. “You are no longer that young lady, you are now an explorer.”
“An explorer must first have a brave heart. I believe you can do it.”
With that, he walked out of the secret room and climbed up the rope.
Xu Jingxin encouraged herself, but she still felt a little scared.
She couldn’t help but laugh at herself. It seemed that she was a little too fond of dragons.
In the past, she had been looking forward to going out to explore every day, now that she finally had the chance, she was so afraid. No wonder Ye Feng would laugh at her.
Thinking of this, she immediately dispelled the fear in her heart. She walked over and tied the woven bag, before pulling the rope to inform Ye Feng.
The woven bag that contained a hundred gold ingots was quickly carried up by Ye Feng.
The two of them cooperated very well. In a short while, they had transported all five woven bags out.
Finally, Ye Feng used a rope to pull Xu Jingxin up.
After this ordeal, their heads and bodies were covered in dirt and dust, just like two mice.
The two of them looked at each other’s sorry state and immediately lay down at the well and laughed heartily.
Although they did not encounter any danger during this treasure hunt, it still made the two of them feel like comrades.
Ye Feng, thank you.”
“Thank me for what?”
“I’ve always wanted to be an explorer, but I’ve never been able to find the opportunity. You can be considered my guide and helped me take the first step.”
“If your brother finds out, he’ll probably skin me alive, right?”
“Haha, don’t worry, I’ll protect you.”
“Then you have to keep your word.”
“Then how much do you plan to give me from this harvest?”
“I just made so much money with you yesterday. Let’s not split it this time, shall we?”
“That’s another matter. I’ve helped you a lot this time. If I hadn’t pretended to be a ghost to scare them, you would have been discovered.”
“Alright, this is your first adventure after all. I’ll give you a gold ingot as a souvenir.”
“Hmph, stingy!”
The two of them continued to chat. For some reason, they did not want to ruin the atmosphere too early.
Right at this time, Ye Feng heard a system notification: [Congratulations to the host for completing the treasure hunt mission. Reward: Shennong Pharmaceutical Group, valued at 6.5 billion…]
When Ye Feng heard this reward, he was stunned.
This was the real reward. Compared to this reward, the 500 gold ingots were just an appetizer.
“Jingxin, have you heard of Shennong Pharmaceutical Group?” he suddenly asked.
Xu Jingxin was immersed in the sweet atmosphere when he suddenly interrupted her. She was a little unhappy. “I’ve never heard of it. What’s wrong?”
“I haven’t heard of them either, but I want to buy them.”
“…”
Xu Jingxin felt that this guy’s thoughts were too jumpy. She could not keep up with the rhythm at all.
He had not even heard of the company’s name, and he wanted to acquire it?
Only Mr. Ye could do such a strange thing.
