As A Trash Collector, I Collected A Imperial Jade Seal

53 I’m Rich! I’ve Dug Up Two Big Treasure Chests! (2)

“If anyone breaks anything in the process of digging, they won’t get the remaining 500 yuan!”

“In other words, everyone’s salary is 1000 yuan a day!”

Luo Feng had plenty of money anyway, so he could offer a high salary for their labor.

Although the villagers were simple and honest, they were also careless.

!!

However, once money was in the picture…

Luo Feng was certain that they would take their jobs seriously.

“F*ck! Is the host lacking manpower? I can fly my way over if he wants!”

“Damn! 1000 yuan a day? 30 thousand yuan a month? I’m so envious that I’m crying!”

“Damn it! The host is flexing again!”

“If you’re really so wealthy, why don’t you go to a construction site and shout out your pay!? ”

After the villagers got into position, they worked hard. After all, the wage offered was very well worth it.

A thousand yuan a day.

Just 10 days of work would yield them 10 thousand yuan.

This was relatively easy money, considering what they were used to making.

Seeing so many people helping, Luo Feng started slacking off.

Thus, he went to the county’s city and returned with a Hummer carriage full of drinks for everyone.

These drinks included Red Bull, coke, mineral water, and so on.

After all, the weather was hot.

“Brother Luo, why didn’t you get an excavator?”

“Yeah, an excavator would make things much faster, wouldn’t it?”

“Are you an idiot? The site we’re digging on is an ancient mansion, and everything that’s stored within it is an antique. Do you know how much damage an excavator would do?”

“Exactly, have you ever seen excavators digging up archeological sites?”

A young villager asked and was immediately rebuked by his elders.

Truth be told, it was not that excavators could not be used, but rather that they needed to ensure that no antiques were present on the spot that was being excavated, and that there was plenty of soil to be dug out.

Clearly, no one was able to ascertain this, and so, using an excavator was out of the question.

Regardless, Luo Feng now had many people working for him, and he had no doubt that his pace would increase greatly. Should a situation arise where an excavator was needed, he would deal with it then.

After about an hour, everyone had dug a shallow pit of around 50 centimeters in depth.

After another hour.

The pit was almost a meter deep.

With hundreds of people excavating, it was like a tunnel battle.

There was strength in numbers, and during those 2 hours, many items had been unearthed, but they were not particularly valuable.

Fortunately, there were a large number of them, so it was not totally fruitless.

A week passed by quickly.

They had pushed down to about 5 or 6 meters deep.

By the tenth day, they had already advanced more than 7 meters.

“Cousin, I found something. Come and take a look!”

Luo Yun shouted.

Luo Feng immediately went over to take a look.

In front of him was a stone about 35 centimeters long.

It seemed to be something that was artificially crafted…

“Is this a piece of a boundary marker?”

Wang Yousheng had made sure to appear everyday to appraise the treasures unearthed.

“If it’s a boundary marker, does that mean we know what’s down there?”

Luo Feng was immediately overjoyed.

“The writing on it probably means that this place is adjacent to Dingtang County?”

Wang Yousheng slowly began to read the words on the boundary marker.

“Yo, Brother Luo, I’ve also dug up a boundary marker!”

Another villager shouted.

The two fragments of the boundary marker were pieced together. When Wang Yousheng saw the words on it, he immediately became agitated. “No, Little Luo, you mustn’t dig any further into this place!”

“Why?” Luo Feng asked immediately.

“There must be an ancient village below here! I’m worried that everyone here is not professional enough and could easily destroy a lot of antiques!”

As soon as Wang Yousheng said this, he did not even need to look.

He was aware that there were hundreds of eyes staring at him.

“There’s no need to be so worried! Just be careful, everyone!”

...

Luo Feng was speechless. If everyone withdrew, how long would it take for him to dig alone? Should he ask the archaeology team to come over? Impossible, he would not be afford the fees.

Unless they were like Wang Yousheng who was willing to work for free.

“Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t!”

“It’s actually an ancient village?”

“Motherf * cker! The host is going to be rich!”

“An ancient village that has been submerged? There are probably countless antiques down there, right?”

“F*ck! I’m starting to feel bad for Huang Tianba. An ancient village was buried under the ground all this time, and all he needed to do was to divert the water away?”

“So what? It’s not like there has been any particularly precious treasures these past few days!”

“Yeah, they were mostly pots, bowls, ladles, and basins. They don’t have much value!”

“I think it’s fine though. What they lack in quality, they sure make it up with quantity!”

“7 million yuan in exchange for an entire ancient village. No matter how you spin it, this is a huge win!”

...

“It truly is! Hurry up and dig out more treasures!”

At this moment, the news that Luo Feng had discovered an ancient village immediately spread on the internet.

It shot up to second place on the hot search that day.

Of course, there were also many archaeologists who had their eyes on it.

In Jiangnan City, the archaeological team of the city’s museum was excitedly discussing this matter.

“What is everyone’s opinion on the ancient village excavated from Shuitang Village? ”

“There’s an entire village down there. Though it’s not very big, there should be dozens of families that used to live there!”

It was not that there were no such ancient villages of this scale in the past, but they were extremely rare.

This was especially true for those that had been submerged underwater.

This was the first time they had ever witnessed something like this in China.

“What else can we do? The land has already been sold to that young man! We can only watch!”

I wonder how that young man’s luck is so good. He bought a fish pond and got an entire ancient village in exchange for it!

The archeologists of the Jiangnan Archaeological Team were all envious of Luo Feng.

However, they also knew the rules. Nature belonged to everyone. Whoever discovers something first would have the right to it. This was especially true since Luo Feng had legally obtained the land for himself.

There was nothing they could do.

“I think we should give this young man a call. Otherwise, it would be a huge loss if the entire ancient village below is destroyed by them!”
