Ling Yu immediately got up, went from the refrigerator to warm the coffee and put it in a hot water basin, and then made a cup of tea for the butler.

When he handed it over, the housekeeper was startled and followed with both hands.

Ling Yu smiled and said, "You are an elder, so you don't have to be polite to me. It's too late for me to take over the Luo family. I have to ask you many things I don't understand."

"Don't dare, don't dare." The butler thought for a moment, and then said it briefly.

It turned out that the Luo family and the benefactor were both from the same hometown and lived in the same village.

Luo Zhenyu's father opened a grocery store in the village and made a living. The housekeeper's father was the young man in Luo Zhenyu's father's grocery store. Luo Zhenyu's mother went to the fields to work every day, and the couple worked hard together.

The benefactor's son went out to work and could not take care of the family often. Luo Zhenyu's father often went to help others because even his ancestors were neighbors.

One year, the second elder of the family was about to die, but the second elder's son was unable to come back in time. At that time, rural people went to the city to work, and the location was not fixed, so they had no place to send messages. At that time, there was no such thing as telegrams or telephones. The family also had a daughter-in-law and a child of a few years old.

Luo Zhenyu's father served in front of the other person's bed for several days, and Luo Zhenyu's mother also helped to cook and do some farm work for them. The villagers said that the Luo family was kind-hearted. Before the death of the family, the two elders told Luo Zhenyu's father that their family would be buried in a fixed tomb group after their death. When each generation died, they would bury the most valuable things around them in the coffin and leave them to their grandchildren. When the grandchildren's father passed away, they could open the coffin of their grandfather to take out the wealth of their ancestors.

The old man also said that these generations were poor and had nothing to leave for their grandchildren, so he asked Luo Zhenyu's father to help. After their death, he put a few silver bracelets at home in a pottery jar and in their coffin, which was also their little intention for their grandchildren.

Luo Zhenyu's father did as he did, helped him bury him, and paid for him to do his funeral. He also calculated that his ancestors had always been a neighbor.

However, Luo Zhenyu's father thought about the words of the two old men, thinking about whether there would be missing coffins and undiscovered property in the tomb group.

At that time, Luo Zhenyu's mother joked about him, saying that they had taken it out after another generation, and if there were any, they would have dug it out long ago.

Luo Zhenyu's father smiled and didn't say anything. But that night, he called the housekeeper's father and dug the family's ancestral grave together. After working for two nights, all eighteen coffins were lifted and buried. He actually found the treasure in one of the coffins.

The treasure was a wooden box of gold bars, and several bronze ware from unknown years ago.

The housekeeper said that the wooden box was not very big, it was about the same size as the shoe box that now contains shoes, but it was filled with gold bars. The gold was extremely purity in the early years, and it was so golden that it was so dazzling that it would make people's eyes confused.

Luo Zhenyu's father carefully checked the gold bars, all of which were bare and shiny, and none of them had marked ones.

He and the housekeeper's father buried all these in his yard and waited for the news to pass. The two elders had just passed away, but now they suddenly disappeared with their families and their families. It was inappropriate to sleep.

In this way, Luo Zhenyu's father held it in the village for four years. The son of the second elder came back twice. On the second time, he stayed in the village and refused to leave. He said that he would take his wife to farm and live a good life. He also thanked the Luo family for their help at critical moments.

Luo Zhenyu kept smiling and said that help between neighbors is the right one.

Gradually, two years passed, and the two families got along like neighbors, very harmoniously. Luo Zhenyu was almost in elementary school at that time. Luo Zhenyu's father looked at his son, thought about it and then, and finally gritted his teeth and said that he wanted to take his wife and children to the city to explore. At that time, the son of the family said that he had been to the city and it was difficult for those who worked outside the country to gain a foothold, but Luo Zhenyu's father said that if he didn't break through, he would never know whether it would be possible.

Finally, in the autumn of that year, Luo Zhenyu's father, with his wife, son, and the housekeeper, bought a carriage, completely left the place where his ancestors had lived, and came to City B.

After hearing this, Ling Yu finally understood how the Luo family became prosperous. It turned out that they had ill-gotten gains.

Ling Yu was in a heavy mood and frowned and asked, "Then, after the Luo family got up, have you turned around to help that family?"

The housekeeper said: "Of course there is. Your father took the whole family out of the mountains, bought a house for them, registered for them, and helped them start doing business. Later, they gradually gained a place in City B. So, that family is still very grateful to our Luo family."

Ling Yu raised his eyebrows, and there were only a handful of businesses with a place in City B. He blinked and thought about it and asked, "Which company is it?"

The butler glanced at Ling Yu deeply, sighed, and said nothing.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Ling Yu knew that he had concerns and did not continue to ask, but the answer was almost scrutinized.

After thinking about it, he asked again: "Then what is placed in that house now is the bronze ware handed down from the ancestors of the family?"

The housekeeper nodded: "There is no mark on gold, so it can be exchanged for cash. But bronze ware is an antique and cannot be easily taken. Your father once asked someone to specifically confirm that those items were from the Shang Dynasty, more than three thousand years ago, each item is genuine, and the value of each item is worthless and immeasurable."

Ling Yu sighed, and a thick shadow buried in his heart.

With the current status of the Luo family, its value is no longer comparable to a box of gold, but the period when they started their business in the early days was really not very glorious.

Digging people’s ancestral graves and stealing people’s treasures, no matter which one it is, is outrageous.

The housekeeper saw Ling Yu's thoughts and smiled faintly: "Young Master, you don't have to be too moved. In fact, it's all the things that are the previous generation. Besides, now both families have come out of the mountains and have lived a prosperous and peaceful life. Let it go if it is gone."

Ling Yu blinked: "But I still owe others what I do."

Not to mention anything else, just say that this bronze ware is not sold or donated. Even if it is passed down from generation to generation, it is like a hot potato. The National Cultural Relics Law stipulates that it cannot be kept privately. It is not from formal channels and there are no relevant purchase documents. If it is discovered one day, it is not a joke.
