Happy Tycoon

The bottom is indeed not a rock, but a rusty iron plate.

Chris and the others worked together, and quickly cleared the one-meter-deep pit, and even figured out the thickness of the boulder. This boulder was actually one and a half meters thick!

In other words, the weight of this boulder definitely exceeds thirteen tons! It is twice as heavy as Chris estimated before!

The stone was pressed against an iron plate, and if the boulder hadn't been wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, the edge of the pressed iron plate would not have been exposed.

Clark tapped the iron plate with his engineering shovel, and said in surprise, The bottom is empty!

In fact, even without knocking, several people can understand what it means that an iron plate suddenly appeared under the pressure of a huge boulder in this inaccessible primitive jungle.

No one would sit idle and worry about pressing such a large stone on an iron plate, that is to say, there must be a man-made hole under the iron plate, and the big mound next to the boulder, I am afraid It was the soil dug out when this underground cave was excavated.

But the question is, who is really busy digging such a big hole in such a ghostly place where no shit or no egg is laid? Judging from the large mound of soil, the space under the iron plate is obviously not small, otherwise it would be impossible to dig out so much soil.

And the most important thing is, whether it is from the trees on the mound or the degree of corrosion of this iron plate, it has been here for at least half a century, who would have been idle half a century ago? Does it hurt to dig such a cave here? And the entrance of the cave is still suppressed with iron plates and huge stones?

Think again about the coordinates recorded in Alfred's notebook. Although the location of this cave is a bit different from the one marked in the notebook, it was in the 1940s when Alfred wrote those things. It is already very accurate to be able to accurately determine the coordinates to an error of about 200 meters.

Alfred died in the autumn of 1946. He was able to leave the location and coordinates of this cave in his notebook, which means that the construction date of this cave must be earlier than 1946!

With the laziness of the Filipinos, it is certainly impossible for the Filipinos to do this project, and of course, it is impossible for the colonists and Americans to do it. Then the only person who could dig such a big cave in this kind of place is already on the verge of coming out.

The cave below is most likely dug by the Japanese who invaded Southeast Asia! Yang Jing said softly but firmly.

Digged by the Japanese? The Japanese during World War II? Clark asked in surprise.

Well, there is a great possibility that the Japanese dug it during World War II. Yang Jing nodded heavily, In the late World War II, the United States gained absolute command of the sea in the Pacific War, and later went directly to Japan. Two atomic bombs were dropped on the mainland, and the Emperor of Japan was directly bombed, so Japan had to surrender unconditionally. However, this surrender was so sudden that the wealth that the Japanese devils searched for in Southeast Asia could not be safe at all. The Japanese arrived in Japan, so the Japanese hurriedly buried the plundered wealth in various hidden places in the Philippines, preparing to wait for it to be retrieved later.”

Chris also nodded and said: I have heard of this incident. At that time, the federal army not only gained absolute command of the sea, but also launched a counterattack against the Philippines. I was losing ground. At that time, more than half of the wealth that the Japanese plundered from Southeast Asia was accumulated in the Philippines, waiting to be pulled to the Japanese mainland by ships. However, the loss of sea control and the victory of the Federal Army in the Philippines made the Japanese I had to hide the plundered wealth in the Philippines. It is said that there are 175 hiding places in the Philippines alone. However, BOSS, most of these hiding places have been discovered, even the Federation also transported them back from the Philippines. Gold and jewelry worth tens of billions of dollars, is this place a hiding place that the federal government missed?

Yang Jing nodded and said: It is very possible. During World War II, Japan's iron hooves quickly spread across the entire East Asian region. During the process of aggression and expansion, the Japanese communists set up a secret organization to plunder the property of the Asian people— ——The 'Yamayuri' Association. Emperor Hirohito appointed Prince Taketanomiya Tsunetoku, a member of the royal family, as the head of the organization in Asia, and they transported a large amount of property and gold looted from China back to Japan.

As Chris said just now, most of the wealth plundered by Japan during World War II was accumulated in the Philippines. , The emperor ordered 'Shan Lily' to quickly register these treasures and bury them in 175 'Royal Treasure Sites' throughout the Philippines.

On September 2, 1945, after Japan surrendered in the Philippines, the U.S. officials who were in charge of the trial had learned from the CIA that Japan had buried treasures in the Philippines, so they did everything possible to obtain the secrets during the trial. After more 'royal caches', U.S. intelligence agencies quietly scooped up gold nuggets, diamonds and platinum worth billions of dollars.

Hearing Yang Jing's words, Clark couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said, How much wealth did these damn Japanese steal?

Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders and said: How much wealth the Japanese robbed in Southeast Asia, I am afraid that it is difficult for outsiders to know except for the leaders of the Japanese. But according to calculations, the Japanese robbed Southeast Asia during World War II. As far as I know, the largest gold acquisition by the United States after the war was in Santa Romana, the Philippines. When the Japanese army was retreating in the Philippines, the Filipino guerrillas found that they would send a large number of heavy boxes Transported to a cave, and then sealed the exit with explosives. A major of the US Strategic Intelligence Service was with the guerrillas at the time and remembered the location of the treasure. The agent reopened the cave after the war and found the box. All gold.

From 1945 to 1948, this batch of gold worth tens of billions of dollars was shipped to the United States. Instead of returning it to the victims in Southeast Asian countries, the United States deposited the gold in 42 countries. 176 banks, among which the Geneva branch of UBS opened a gold account with tens of billions of dollars in the name of 'Lansdale'!

There was a hiss and a neat gasp. It was obvious that the tens of billions of dollars of gold had frightened these bodyguards.

This is tens of billions of dollars in the 1940s. If it is placed now, it will be hundreds of billions of dollars!

Afterwards, the eyes of these guys all fell on the boulder and the iron plate.

Chris swallowed dryly and asked, Boss, do you think there is any gold hidden by the Japanese?

Yang Jing shook his head and said, I don't know about this. We have to dig this place thoroughly before we can find out if there is any gold in it!

Clark spat into his hands and said, Then what are we waiting for? Let's start digging! I expect to find a big pile of gold.
