Found 100 Million In My Rented Apartment

Chapter 835 - 835 Principles, Do You Understand?



835 Principles, Do You Understand?

Ye Feng was extremely excited about the new treasure navigation when he suddenly saw Xu Jingxin’s tears. He was shocked.

“Why are you crying?”

Xu Jingxin could be said to be the smartest and most sensible girl he knew. He rarely saw her emotional fluctuations. Now that she suddenly cried, he was really at a loss.

Xu Jingxin turned her head away and did not speak. She was speechless.

The people who came in and out of the hospital looked at him with anger and disdain, as if he had committed some unforgivable crime.

Ye Feng quickly held Xu Jingxin’s hand. “Come with me to a place first, I will explain to you on the way.”

Xu Jingxin only struggled for a moment, then let him lead her to the parking lot.

..

“So you’re just giving her acupuncture?”

On the way to Ding Richang’s old residence, Ye Feng explained to Xu Jingxin what happened in the ward.

After Xu Jingxin heard this, she realized that she had misunderstood something.

“Then what did you think it was?” Ye Feng immediately asked.

“I thought… I thought it was acupuncture too,” Xu Jingxin quickly and awkwardly quibbled.

“Oh, I understand. Don’t tell me you think… Miss Xu Jingxin, your thoughts are a little unhealthy.” Ye Feng understood that she had misunderstood something and started to tease her.

Xu Jingxin’s face turned red and she quickly changed the topic. “Where are you taking me?”

Ye Feng did not know how to explain it to her. He could only answer casually, “Go out to relax.”

Xu Jingxin saw that he did not say anything, so she did not ask further.

Ding Richang’s old residence was not too far from the hospital. It only took them less than ten minutes to get there.

When the two of them arrived at their destination, they found that it was a very large courtyard, covering an area of more than 6,000 square meters.

This place had been transformed into a tourist attraction, and there were many cars parked at the entrance. They were probably tourists.

“Why did you suddenly come to Ding Richang’s old residence?” Xu Jingxin looked at Ye Feng strangely.

“You know this place?” Ye Feng was also surprised.

“Of course, Ding Richang is a corrupt official. Is there anyone who doesn’t know this person?” Xu Jingxin acted as if it was a matter of course.

Ye Feng touched his nose awkwardly. “I don’t know him. Is it embarrassing?”

Xu Jingxin then realized that this guy had not even finished his freshman year and his educational level was still in his third year. He might not know this person, so she could only patiently give him general knowledge.

“This Ding Richang was the biggest corrupt official in the local area during the late Qing Dynasty. Because he was highly appreciated by Li Hongzhang, his official career was successful…”

Ye Feng listened to her explanation as he walked into the house.

In fact, for modern people who are used to seeing all kinds of high-rise buildings, such an old house would not be shocking without some historical background.

He didn’t really listen to Xu Jingxin’s words. He just followed the system’s instructions and walked forward.

He thought that he would be able to find the treasure without any obstacles.

However, when the two of them arrived at the backyard, they were suddenly blocked by a man with a red armband. “Stop, what are you doing?”

The man had a fierce-looking face and a cigarette in his mouth. He didn’t look like a kind person at first glance.

Ye Feng immediately explained: “We are here for a vacation, we just happened to be here. Is there a problem?”

The man pointed at a sign beside him. “Can’t you read Chinese characters? You’re not allowed to enter here.”

Ye Feng turned his head and saw the sign that said ‘Temporarily closed, no visitors allowed’.

He immediately frowned. “Aiya, why aren’t they open? We came all the way here just to admire the ancient buildings here. It’s a pity that we can’t enter.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the man. “Can you make an exception? Let’s go in and take a look before leaving.”

The man’s face darkened. “Principles, do you understand? We have to act according to the rules. Since the rules forbid us from entering, even if the emperor comes, we can’t enter…”

Ye Feng did not wait for him to finish. He immediately took out a few hundred dollar bills and stuffed them into his hand. “I can tell that you are a warm-hearted person, you definitely can’t bear to see us come here for nothing, right?”

The man’s eyes lit up and he quickly stuffed the few hundred yuan into his pocket.

His job was so shabby that it was not even as good as a guard. The guard would even be given a pack of cigarettes every now and then, and he basically received a salary of less than 2,000 yuan.

A few hundred yuan was already a lot of money for him. It was enough for him to work for more than a week.

“Haha, no problem, no problem. Rules are dead, but people are alive. Since you are studying ancient architecture, you are also doing it for our country. But you have to look at it quickly and leave immediately after you’re done. If the leader finds out, not only will you be punished, but I’ll also be punished.”

Ye Feng hurriedly nodded in agreement, then he pulled Xu Jingxin and quickly walked toward the backyard.

He was still muttering in his heart. As expected of someone who looks after the houses of corrupt officials. He had not learned anything else, but he had learned corruption first.

“Why did you have to come to the backyard?” Xu Jingxin was baffled by his behavior.

He said that he was here for a vacation, but he was just looking around on the way. He didn’t look at it at all. It seemed like he was just running to the backyard.

“I heard that rich people like to hide their treasures in the backyard. What if we can dig them up?” Ye Feng said half-truthfully.

“Haha, why are you so childish? Even if there really is a treasure, it would have been discovered by others long ago. Would it be our turn?” Xu Jingxin immediately covered her mouth and laughed.

Ye Feng did not explain much. He just followed the system’s guidance.

The backyard had been abandoned for a long time and no one had repaired it. The moment he walked in, it felt gloomy.

Xu Jingxin felt a chill run down her spine. “This place is so old. What’s there to see? Let’s hurry up and leave.”

Ye Feng did not answer her. He slowly walked to a dry well in the courtyard.

At the same time, the system’s voice sounded again.

[The navigation is over!]

..

After finding the treasure, Ye Feng did not stay any longer. He immediately left with Xu Jingxin.

After leaving Ding Richang’s old residence, he ran to the grocery store next door and bought a few woven bags, shovels, ropes, and other tools.

Xu Jingxin watched his series of abnormal actions silently and did not ask why.

It was not until the two of them returned to the hospital that she could not help but ask, “What exactly do you want?”

Ye Feng looked at her sneakily. “I found treasure in the backyard. I will dig it out tonight. Do you dare to come with me?”

Xu Jingxin’s mouth was wide open. After a long while, she said in disbelief, “Treasure? How did you find out?”

She had been following him at that time, but she didn’t see him rummaging around. How did he find the treasure?
