Treasure Appraisal: I Can See the Future

When the bus arrived at the Dongyu Town station, the houses and buildings in front of him had not changed much. It was still a familiar scene for Su Qi. Last night, Su Qi suddenly received a call from his mother, saying that his father had a heart problem and had not recovered after more than a month in the hospital. She asked him to come back quickly.

Usually, parents never tell him when they are sick or have other things, for fear of affecting his studies; now they urge him to go back quickly, so his father's condition must have reached a very serious level.

Su Qi immediately set off, changed three trains overnight, and rushed back to his hometown in Nanming early in the morning. As soon as he got off the train, he saw two familiar figures from a distance.

The mother with snow-white hair on her temples but forced a smile; the childhood friend Zhiqiang with dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes.

After not seeing each other for a long time, the worries on the faces of several people could not be concealed at all. His father was seriously ill and needed a large sum of money to save his life. As the only person in the family who could rely on him now, Su Qi told himself that he must not fall down now.

"Mom, go home and wait, don't worry. There will always be a way to cure my dad's illness." Su Qi comforted his mother and patted his childhood friend on the shoulder: "Zhiqiang, is the excavator ready?"

Zhiqiang said nonchalantly: "The oil is full, we can dig wherever you say!"

Mother sighed: "Then go ahead, if you really can't dig it, forget it, it's been so many years, maybe it has been dug away by others."

...

Zhiqiang drove the excavator and Su Qi rode a motorcycle, heading straight to the back mountain of Sujia Village, fifteen miles away from Dongyu Town.

Su Qi and Zhiqiang grew up here wearing open-crotch pants, beating people together and being beaten together, and they are close friends since childhood.

Zhiqiang dropped out of middle school and went to a martial arts school to practice martial arts for three years. He worked as a bodyguard for a while. Later, for some reason, he changed his career and learned excavator for half a year. His family pooled money to buy an excavator for him. He contracted some work locally and was considered a small contractor.

This time, his father was seriously ill and Su Qi had not returned yet, so Zhiqiang sent him 15,000 yuan.

The old Sujia Village is now deserted. Some farms are basically deserted except for a few days when they go home for the busy farming season.

The two stood in the back mountain, looking at a piece of sandy land in front of them, a few sparse small poplar trees, and countless tree stumps.

Zhiqiang couldn't help asking, "Su Qi, what are we digging for after driving the excavator so far?"

Su Qi said, "My grandfather buried some things here when he was young. If we can dig it up, my dad might be saved!"

"The things your grandfather buried." Zhiqiang scratched his head and suddenly realized, "It can't be a treasure. When I was a child, I heard from my grandfather that your grandfather was a young master. In Dongyu Town, your family was very rich. But later, due to special reasons, your grandfather lost everything."

Su Qi nodded and smiled bitterly, "Yes, my grandfather took advantage of the chaos to bury some Yuan Datou and ancient coins in this sandy land. He didn't dare to dig them out for decades. In the end, this place was burned and flooded, Some big trees were cut down and lost their marks. He was old and couldn't remember the location. He only knew that it was in this sandy land. Those things were buried very deep, and this sandy land was too difficult to dig. My father was discouraged after digging for several years. I guessed that those things must still be in this land. I think as long as we use the excavator to turn this land over, we will definitely be able to dig it out. "

Looking at the nearly two acres of sandy land, Zhiqiang glared and gritted his teeth and said firmly: "Okay, then turn it over. I don't believe we can't dig it out. This time your father was sick, and I didn't help much. Leave this matter to me."

Su Qi was not polite either. He stretched out his hand and gestured: "Dig two meters deep from the middle. That thing is a big wine jar."

Click!

The excavator rolled the crawler to crush the sand and gravel. Zhiqiang operated it skillfully. The bucket stretched and bent and inserted into the sandy land, and then raised a one-meter-deep pit to come out.

The sandy ground is composed of stones, gravel, and a little soil. Once the sand and soil are poured on the ground, they will spread out and cannot cover up large objects.

Su Qi watched carefully from the side.

When the digging reached a depth of two meters, mud and water seeped out. When the bucket was lifted, the mud and water splashed everywhere, splashing Su Qi with mud.

Su Qi still stared at the bucket, not letting go of every bucket of sand and soil!

Time passed bit by bit, and big pits were dug out and buried again. The sun also moved from the south to the west.

No, no, still no! Su Qi's heart gradually sank.
