Chapter 109
On the pier, there was a long queue, and Nan Yi stood on the high ground and looked out.
At this point in time, farmers in other places are guarding their own one-third of an acre of land, and the workers are going to work honestly, but the people of Wenzhou City have already brought their business to the whole country and the world.
Through the binoculars, Nanyi saw the team on the pier slowly stepping forward, taking tickets one by one from the conductor with a loud voice.
Adjusting the focus, Nan Yi saw the price of the ferry ticket to Shanghai written on the small blackboard.
"They all went out to speculate?"
"For the most part, it's just crossing the river by feeling the stones. They are all stones. Whether they will sink to the bottom of the river depends on whether God is happy or not. Alright, let's queue up and go to Shanghai by boat."
Nanyi also didn't want to waste time explaining to Zuo Can which ones were speculative and which ones were already allowed by the policy.
After staying in Yangcheng for two days, taking a look at the places where domestic businessmen are concentrated, Nanyi and Zuo Can returned to Shajiaotou.
The Revolutionary Committee has been abolished, the names of various administrative units have changed, Shajiaotou has become a township, and the Wenchangwei Brigade has also become Wenchangwei Village.
After inquiring all the way, I found a person who was secretly doing white business.
"Boss, is there a coffin?"
"Yes, what kind of wood do you want?"
"Ordinary cypress is fine, grown-up."
"When will it be?"
"People who died while sleeping, tomorrow is the fourth day of the seventh month, so they should be buried. Wenchangwei, can they be delivered before this time?"
"Okay, do you want a Taoist priest?"
"Yes, how about the money?"
"The coffin is thirty-five, and I'll make you some candles and yellow paper; the Taoist's money, you'll settle it with him."
"Okay, give me some more tinfoil, two sticks of incense, and a piece of yellow paper. I'm going to take it away now." Nan Yi nodded and said.
"Another two dollars."
"Okay, when you come tomorrow, you can just inquire about Nanyi's house. Come from the southwest direction. The coffin is parked on the tidal flat near Shenfeng Bay outside the village."
"good."
I made a deal with the owner of the Baishidian, and found a sneaky vegetable seller. I bought tofu, cut a piece of double-knife meat, and bought a capon.
Back at the Nanzhai, Nan Yi pointed to the kitchen for Zuo Can, "That's the kitchen, please help me boil a pot of hot water and take off the chicken feathers."
"good."
Zuo Can went to boil the water, Nan Yi went to the utility room by himself, took out the basket where the sacrificial supplies were stored, and took an empty basket by the way.
Sit in the yard, fold tinfoil into ingots, and fold yellow watch paper in half.
Not long after, Zuo Can cooked the chicken, Nanyi asked him to continue boiling water, took the chicken from his hand, and cleaned the chicken and the Shuangdao meat he bought.
...
After laying out the offerings and lighting the candles, Nan Yi worshiped the well with the incense sticks. After burning most of the ingots and yellow watch paper prepared just now, he asked Zuo Can to move the bluestone on the well with him.
"There is a corpse at the bottom of the well. It was an officer of the Cantonese Army. I don't know how many years it has been dead. You will go down and fish him up later. I will call the village committee and ask the people from the police station to come over and take a look. He was buried."
"good."
After picking up the body, a jeep came from the police station and looked at the body. Apart from being curious that the body was not decomposed, Nanyi explained that the well water was very cold, and they didn't think anything was wrong.
Nanyi took the initiative to ask him to bury the body, and the people at the police station were fine. After registering, they left.
It's not a homicide case, they have to deal with the corpse after they take it away, one thing more is worse than one thing less.
It was only 30 years since the liberation, and the warlords had been fighting for decades, and there were a few muddled accounts in the back. If you dig down any piece of land, you can dig up a lot of bones.
People in the police station are not surprised by such things.
"Uncle Xian, do you know him?"
When there were only three people left in the yard, Nan Yi asked Xian Yaodong.
Xian Yaodong took a deep puff of his cigarette, sighed and said, "Yes, the Liu family's son-in-law, I always thought he ran away from the country, but I didn't expect to die in the well."
"When did you die, do you have a count?"
"I guess it was a few days before the liberation of Bao'an, but he died strangely. The Liu family was still there at that time. How could he die in the well?"
"Uncle Xian, let me ask something I shouldn't ask."
"go ahead."
"How many of the Liu family did you kill?"
"There are seven members of the Liu family, except for the youngest son, the others are dead."
"Where's the younger son?"
"Run fast, I guess I ran to the other side, it's hard to say where I am now."
There is still one alive, which may become a hidden danger for Nanyi.
In the basement, he did not find the house deed and title deed of the South Residence. If this kid surnamed Liu is doing well outside, he will return to China and invest a few hundred million in the future, and then take the deed and land deed to return this house, the probability of getting it back is not small.
"When was it born? What is it called?"
"Born in four or five years, it seems to be called Liu Nianzu."
"Uncle Xian, do the belongings you copied from here match what you think the Liu family has?"
"What does it match? It's too much." Xian Yaodong said regretfully: "However, the big heads were taken away by the working group, and there are not many people in the village hiding them, just some Yuan Datou and so on."
Nanyi nodded, "We'll talk about this another day. I've already ordered a coffin, and I'll bury him tomorrow."
"Nanyi, have you found him long ago?"
"Just soaking in that well, Uncle Xian, do you think I'll check to see if the well water is drinkable before I move in?"
"Then why?"
"I was worried at the time, who knows what kind of grudge you had with the Liu family back then, who knew whether he was killed by you, I thought you deliberately didn't tell me that there was a dead body in the well.
What should I do? I can only pretend to be stupid and pretend I don’t know. "
"How is it possible? If that's the case, it's impossible for me not to tell you. None of the Liu family members died here, otherwise, I wouldn't have sold this house to you." Xian Yaodong said with a jump.
"Forget it, it's over."
The next day, Nanyi will bury Anonymous on the tidal flat not far from Ke Liya.
Xian Yaodong also only knew that he was the son-in-law of the Liu family, but he didn't know his last name. Back then, a high-ranking military officer probably wouldn't talk to those mud-legged people in Wenchangwei.
On the tombstone of Anonymous, Nan Yi also left half of the epitaph——Life is as gorgeous as summer flowers.
People have been buried in the ground, but Nanyi still has something to do.
He went to the city to get some cement and came back, removed the wall of the well above the ground, pasted cement on the bluestone, completely sealed the wellhead, covered the bluestone with a layer of mud, and planted snakes on it. Kill the door.
If there is no gold in the ground when the detector arrives, Nanyi plans to pry open the bluestone slab to see if the two snapping turtles are hanging or not after a year or so.
Besides gold, even if there are other valuable things here, it doesn't mean much to Nanyi.
Nanyi doesn't even want to have any shitty national treasure antiques. Those things are not suitable for eating or drinking, and they are useless.
He can't do the thing of dumping the national treasure abroad; but if he wants to sell it in China, he doesn't know if he can get back 50 yuan and a certificate smoothly.
