Chapter 275: Chapter 275

Gong Tao only just remembered that this box belonged to his daughter, and now many people knew about the secret of this box. It seemed somewhat inappropriate.

Gong Tao looked at Gong Ruini with an apologetic gaze, his face full of guilt.

Gong Ruini was truly exasperated by Gong Tao’s innocent look. Why didn’t he remember these things when he was operating earlier? Now he wants to consult her for her opinion.

If she disagrees, what would Zhao Gang and the others think? When we were taking you along to make a fortune, it was fine, but now that you’ve found a way to get rich, are you starting to guard against us in all sorts of ways?

Now, other than agreeing, there’s no choice but to agree. Besides, if it is really a treasure map, if it’s just a small treasure, Gong Ruini doesn’t think it would be so complicated. At least it shouldn’t be a small treasure.

"Let’s get rich together."

"It was also Uncle Zhao who took me to the scrapyard, that’s why I had such good luck," Gong Ruini also felt that ever since crossing over, her luck had indeed improved a lot.

For example, falling into a tree hole and unexpectedly discovering such a big underground hole, then getting gold, this luck is really not ordinary.

Also discovered a space within a jade pendant, although it was a bit useless, but still better than nothing.

Zhao Gang didn’t have much thought about these things. A so-called treasure map usually suggests that many people would covet it, and if no one did, then it was a small treasure.

Since coming to the Northeast, he hadn’t heard of any great treasures here, but Gong Ruini’s generous response made Zhao Gang very happy. Google seaʀᴄh novel⟡fire.net

"This thing was discovered by Ni Zi," Zhao Gang was delighted but couldn’t just freely take advantage of a child.

Even if he helped out Gong Tao in the past, the return was a lot, like so much gold.

"This thing must be a shared fortune," Gong Ruini insisted, considering the Zhao family’s upbringing, and Zhao Xuran, the little fox. Maintaining a good relationship with the Zhao family is the best long-term choice.

After some back-and-forth, Zhao Gang finally agreed to get on board, "We divide it into four parts, one for Ni Zi, one for Gong Tao, one for me, and one for Cai Ming."

Even though nothing had been seen yet, and they didn’t know where the treasure on the map was, Zhao Gang insisted it had to be divided into four parts.

As Gong Tao said, without Gong Ruini, no one would have paid attention to this thing, and various opportunities would have been missed.

Ah, isn’t it true that in this way, his family occupies three-quarters? Gong Ruini looked at Zhao Gang’s arrangement with great admiration, as not many would have such thoughts after knowing there’s a large income.

Many people might not think so openly and would feel comfortable since the original owner agreed to share with him.

Such ungreedy behavior, given the opportunity, would surely soar high.

"Uncle Zhao, you’re taking too little." Is it too little? Zhao Gang didn’t think so, "Not everyone gets such a good opportunity."

"If I missed it, I wouldn’t even have a quarter," Zhao Gang was not greedy, preferring that his family be healthy and his children successful over getting rich. As for money, he was confident he could earn it.

Just arriving home, Cai Ming hadn’t even sat down when such big news dazed him, "What, treasure?"

Cai Ming knew his niece went to the scrapyard to collect books today, so how could she tell him they found a treasure map? Wasn’t this a dream?

Are treasure maps so easily found? Cai Ming kept muttering to himself.

"We don’t know yet, but if it really is, you’ve got a share," Gong Tao knew that giving his brother-in-law this share was actually a favor, but since it was given to Cai Ming, Gong Tao couldn’t shamelessly take it.

"If we can really find the treasure, you should keep it to yourself and not tell anyone."

"You won’t have to worry about getting married, you can take a wife," Zhao Gang patted his brother-in-law on the shoulder.

This is also a hard-pressed child. Since coming to the Northeast, there had been no letters from his hometown, treating him as if he didn’t exist. It’s genuinely heart-wrenching.

Since no one usually catered to him, when Cai Ming reached marriage age, Gong Tao didn’t think Gong’s family would step forward to make arrangements.

Once they receive word that Cai Ming wants to get married, they might really run away hastily. Since Gong’s family didn’t care, Gong Tao, as a brother-in-law, must stand up to help.

At his brother-in-law’s words, Cai Ming’s face went red, "I, I haven’t even thought about marriage."

"Brother-in-law, by the way, have you seen the map?" Cai Ming quickly changed the subject. If he didn’t, he didn’t know how the kids around him would tease him.

Cai Ming wasn’t keen on being teased relentlessly by Gong Ruini and attracting Zhao Guangran would be no fun.

Yes indeed, look at the map. The map hadn’t even been looked at yet, and Gong Tao realized he seemed to have forgotten something important—it was indeed something very important.

No wonder he had been beat by his brother-in-law and others, they hadn’t even seen the thing, so how could they know it’s a treasure map, yet they always thought of him, which made Cai Ming feel really delighted.

Here he truly felt warmer than at his own home, even Zhao Gang, a big brother with no blood relation, would always kindly ask if he was adapting.

In contrast, after arriving in the Northeast, his own family had only sent complaints about financial troubles, and seeing that he had not responded, eventually stopped all communication, as saving a letter was saving money.

Gong Ruini had long had too many thoughts about the so-called treasure map in Gong Tao’s mouth, and hadn’t seen the adults looking at the map, just discussing the split, which felt exhausting.

Not knowing the result, yet they’re here discussing how to split, really seems like a peculiar mindset.

"This map looks familiar," Zhao Guangran looked at the map and felt it was strangely familiar.

Isn’t that obvious? Gong Ruini, despite staying home a lot and not going out much, knew it wasn’t just familiar—it meant the treasure was hidden nearby.

This delighted Gong Ruini, as she worried the treasure might be in some unknown, unfamiliar place, which would pose a huge problem. In that era, they had no way to go treasure hunting.

If it was nearby, even if remote, as long as it wasn’t in someone’s house, Gong Ruini could guarantee they’d unearth these things.

The most important thing was ensuring safety, because in any era, safety is paramount.

Looking at the map for a long time, Gong Ruini had only one thought—this place was indeed strangely familiar.

A place that seems familiar to a homebody like her is absolutely not somewhere she’s been, but rather somewhere near where she’s always stayed.

Even if familiar, it wasn’t that easy to find, as the map had a somewhat elusive quality to it.

Gong Ruini felt a bit stumped trying to recognize it.

Zhao Xuran also said, "It looks a bit familiar."
