Chapter 327： Box

Chapter 327 Box

In Wen Youshan's utter shock, Zhang Yun took out a small square wooden box from his arms. It looked the size of an adult's palm, not too thick, and it was just right in the palm of his hand.

"What is this?" Wen Youshan couldn't see why he looked horizontally and vertically.

Zhang Yun shrugged, "I don't even know what this thing is. When we got to the bandit den, the dust was so thick that it could bury people. Many people thought about making a rare trip and wondering if they could get some. Valuable things, anyway, don't want the things of the bandits for nothing, of course, people don't dare to take good things, just want to check if they have money or something.

I didn't think it was right, but at that time I couldn't say anything to persuade, so I followed the crowd. They found some broken silver and copper plates in those piles of bones. I picked up this box when I was walking around with everyone. It was estimated that someone found it from somewhere, and found that it was not something valuable and threw it away.

I saw that this box was made of good wood, and it was heavy to get started, so I kept an eye on it, put it away, and thought about it a few times after I went back, but unfortunately this box has no keyhole, it seems to have been sealed, so I can't open it, you see Knowledgeable, help me see. "

Wen Youshan took the wooden box tremblingly. After fiddling with it twice, he found that this thing was so well-knitted that it couldn't be opened at all. Except for a layer of ash, it fell on the ground without any change at all. After a few times, he also became angry, and he was more energetic than the wooden box. He wanted to go out and swing the hammer, "I don't believe it can't be opened!"

Zhang Yun was taken aback by him, and he hurriedly stopped: "You smashed it before you knew what it was. What if there was a treasure inside and you smashed it?"

Wen Youshan's footsteps stopped, not to mention, this possibility is not small. Thinking of this, the foot he stepped out was taken back by him.

The two stared at the wooden box on the table, and finally Wen Youshan asked helplessly: "Brother, what do you mean by saying? I can't help you to open the box!"

The corner of Zhang Yun's mouth twitched, he didn't dare to ask Wen Youshan to open the box, he pondered: "I want to sell the box to you, you can give me a price."

Wen Youshan blinked fiercely, looking in disbelief.

Zhang Yun repeated, "You haven't heard, I'm going to sell this box to you, no matter what's in it, just look at how much the wood is worth, and give a good price, after all, this thing came out of a bandit's den. , I may keep it and it may become a scourge. Even if it is a baby, I am afraid that I will not have that life to keep. It is better to sell it to you, but there may be nothing in it, and it may be something worthless. There is no guarantee.”

Apart from the fact that this box is heavy and can't be opened, Zhang Yun himself doesn't know anything about it. It's like gambling stones. It may be worth thousands of dollars, or it may be worthless.

Wen Youshan was almost convinced by his cheerful appearance, he struggled for a long time before saying, "Are you sure?"

Zhang Yun nodded heavily.

Wen Youshan took a deep breath, "Okay, since you dare to sell, I will dare to buy, as you said, I don't know what's in it, just buy a new thing, I'll give you a thousand taels how?"

"Hi!" Zhang Yun was stunned by the price.

Wen Youshan explained: "The main reason is that this wood is really good. I am a carpenter and I still have some understanding of wood. I have tossed and tossed this box without leaving any traces, which means that the wood is very good, so I rushed to this wood. I'll give you a thousand taels, and as for the contents, let's talk about it, I'll break it open one day when I'm impatient."

Zhang Yun raised his eyelids and responded happily.

After the matter in the box was settled, Wen Youshan was in the mood to ask about the bandit's den. He learned that the village chief Zhangjiagou had reported to the official and the officials had also been there. In the end, it was decided that it was a bandit's den and it was gone. Don't care anymore.

Carrying the wooden box, Wen Youshan went back to the bedroom and talked to Chen Ningya, but Chen Ningya was interested, took the wooden box and played with the candlelight for a long time, until she turned off the lights and lay down. Wen Youshan said: "I suspect that the wood of the wooden box is black iron wood."

"Black Ironwood?" Wen Youshan was interested.

Seeing his expression, Chen Ningya smiled and said, "Black iron wood is uncommon, the yield is rare, and it grows in high terrain, so this kind of wood is only used for small things, and it is estimated that there will be one or two in high-level noble families. I haven’t seen any related ornaments, but I’ve heard of them. Judging from the color and texture, it shouldn’t be wrong. It’s not too expensive to buy one thousand taels of silver, but you just don’t know what’s inside.”

Wen Youshan was happy when he heard that he didn't make a loss-making business. As for what was in it, he didn't care, "Maybe there is nothing in it!"

Chen Ningya rolled her eyes at him, "Stupid! The weight of the box made of black iron wood is wrong. You tell me there is nothing in it, you are fooling me! It can be put in such a precious box, maybe it is a big baby inside. Woolen cloth!"

Wen Youshan was stunned for a while, without sleepiness, he got up in twos and threes, put the box in his arms, and held it tightly.

Chen Ningya was speechless, knocked off his salty pig's trotters, took the box in the dark, and whispered uncertainly, "I suspect this is a trapped box, so there is no keyhole, as long as the trap is unlocked, the box will naturally disappear. opened."

This is black iron wood and an agency, so I don't know what to say to Wen Youshan.

After a long while, he nervously said to Chen Ningya, "Take the items to your secret cell together, or get them to the village, and then take them out for research when there is a chance, and next time my eldest brother comes back, I'll do it again. Ask, he has been to that bandit den, maybe he knows what it is."

Chen Ningya nodded slightly and acquiesced to Wen Youshan's arrangement.

For the next few days, the couple have been busy packing luggage for Wen Yuanliang and the others, arranging escorts, and sent some fresh things and delicacies to Shenbian. Although they are not novel, they can be seen in the winter. Also rare.

Before Wen Yuanliang and the others left, Chen Ningya and Wen Youshan called them to the main room, screened and stepped down, and then took out the boots they had made.

When they saw the boots, the brothers both blushed. In recent years, there have been many people in the family, and they have been going out all the time. They have rarely worn clothes and shoes made by Chen Ningya. Today, they suddenly see such thick boots. My nose was sore, and I almost burst into tears.

It didn't take long for them to be moved, only to see Chen Ningya taking the socks out of her boots, looking at the heavy weight, and the golden light flashing by, and several people were stunned.
