Chapter 233: Gold Certificates
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
An Jiuyue pursed her lips.
She knew what was in the box even without Wei Na’s reminder. Why else would she search the entire house for the key to open this box?
The box was divided into five levels. The first level had a button that could eject all levels like a staircase with a press.
There were five bamboo tubes on the first level. Red and beautiful, the bamboo tubes were authentic and customized.
If Qian Jiyun was here, he would be able to tell that these tubes were used by the military to transmit messages. Each bamboo tube had been soaked in special medicine. Water could not corrode it, and it could even withstand fire for a while.!!
An Jiuyue picked one up and began opening it to inspect it.
“It’s stuffed with paper. Why do I find these papers familiar?” she muttered to herself.
The paper in the bamboo tube felt different from ordinary paper. It was slightly yellow as if she had seen it somewhere before.
When she pulled out all the paper from the bamboo tube, she finally knew where she had seen them.
“They’re silver certificates.”
So the entire bamboo tube is stuffed with silver certificates… No, they’re not silver certificates, but…
“Gold certificates! They’re all gold certificates!”
Gold certificates were used to represent ownership of gold. The bamboo tube was stuffed with them, and they were well preserved because the bamboo tube was sealed tightly.
“Each one is worth over 10,000 taels of gold. There are 15 of them here, which is 150,000 taels of gold! If you convert them into silver… Tsk tsk, Your father is an invisible tycoon!”
An Tu had an extraordinary identity. If he had taken out these gold certificates to treat his injuries back then, he would not have ended up grievously injured.
Could there be more to An Tu’s death?
“Master, you’re rich!” Wei Na shouted excitedly in the space. “Are the other bamboo tubes also filled with gold certificates?”
150,000 taels of gold! How much gold is that? We can pile them up like a mountain!
“Get lost. Wait aside.” An Jiuyue scolded it angrily.
Does it have eyes for anything besides money?
“Let me see.”
Even if there were no gold certificates, An Jiuyue believed there would still be valuable items.
She bundled up the gold certificates and stuffed them back into the bamboo tube. Then, she picked up another one and opened it.
There were no gold certificates inside. Instead, there was a stack of house deeds. Moreover, they were not ordinary house deeds—they were all for tall and big courtyard houses. Each had gardens and several individual courtyards.
There were 14 house deeds and another title deed. An Jiuyue was stunned when she saw the name on the title deed.
“Lianjing Mountain Range! This is the title deed to the Lianjing Mountain Range!”
In other words, her father owned the entire Lianjing Mountain Range, encompassing over ten nearby towns and transversing five counties.
“Who exactly is your father? He alone owns the entire mountain range?”
Which emperor would allow someone to own an entire mountain range? This place was huge—allowing him to own it was as good as making her father an emperor too!
Moreover, she had only opened two bamboo tubes. There were five bamboo tubes on the first level, and there were five levels. Five levels! There must be a lot of things inside!
