Chapter 1513: Prosperous Growth 2
Wang Cuilan asked, "What’s the good news?" Cheng Baoguo chuckled and said, "Didn’t Second Brother and his grandchildren come back last month? The day before yesterday, Second Brother and Zhengguo took Xibao to pay respects to Master Shan. Guess what happened?"
"What happened? Stop rambling, just get to the point." Isn’t it supposed to be good news?
Cheng Baoguo laughed, "The mountains near Master Shan’s place experienced a landslide last year due to heavy rain. On the way, Xibao got tired, so he rested midway with Second Brother and Zhengguo. While they were resting, Xibao took out his little trowel and started digging some dandelions nearby, saying they’re good for clearing heat and detoxifying, and can even be used in medicine. The soil was loosened by the recent rainfall, and when he dug a little deeper, he unearthed a big chunk of dirt. Guess what happened next?"
"Just say it already, don’t make me guess!" Wang Cuilan was eager to find out what had happened, her tone filled with impatience.
Cheng Baoguo didn’t beat around the bush any longer and said, "According to Zhengguo, there was a loud ’clang’ as the trowel hit something solid, producing a metallic sound—a noise you’d typically hear when iron strikes iron. At first, they thought it was some discarded iron cannon scrap or similar junk buried beneath, which could be sold to the recycling station. So they let Xibao keep digging, and eventually, he unearthed an iron box."
Wang Cuilan froze for a moment and asked, "What was inside the box?"
As everyone knew, Xibao’s fortunes tended to lead to remarkable finds, so whatever was inside the box was likely extraordinary.
"A box full of gold!" Cheng Baoguo replied.
"What? Gold?"
