According to what Chen Wanbai had learned, in ancient times, golden nanmu seemed to be owned and used only by the royal family and nobles.
Although I don’t know if the dynasty she lives in now has such regulations, but ordinary people like them are not qualified to own it, and they have no Given the background, this tree will undoubtedly be a very hot potato.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Wanbai lowered his voice and said to Wan Chaogui: "Uncle Wan, let me tell you something, don't get excited."
Wan Chaogui There was confusion on his face, but looking at Chen Wanbai's serious expression, he realized that the matter might not be simple, so he nodded and said, "Okay, Xiaobai, you tell me."
Chen Wanbai then said that this tree might be The story of Golden Phoebe was revealed.
Wan Chaogui scratched his head and seemed not to understand, "Xiaobai, what kind of wood are you talking about golden nanmu?"
And behind him, Mrs. Liu Then he quickly walked to the tree, squatted down, and watched carefully.
Then he raised his head and said to the two of them: "It's really a golden nanmu. I roughly counted it and it's about fifty years old."
Seeing that Wan Chaogui was still a tree With a confused face, Ms. Liu had no choice but to explain: "Golden nanmu is very precious and the price is very high."
Hearing the words "high price", Wan Chaogui suddenly jumped from that childhood He stood up and quickly approached the golden nanmu, touching it with his hands.
"Aren't they all trees? What's the difference besides being harder? How much money can it be sold for?"
This tree is indeed hard. Wan Chaogui cut it down. It took a lot of effort. However, he is obviously more concerned about how much money he can sell.
"It's not a question of how much it can be sold for, but that we can't sell it at all." Ms. Liu elaborated on the dangers this tree may bring.
As soon as these words came out, the three of them fell into silence for a while. Especially Wan Chaogui, he originally thought he could make a fortune from this, but he didn't expect that there was still danger.
Chen Wanbai pondered for a moment and then said: "Mom, Uncle Wan, let's hide this tree first, and wait until I find out more about the regulations on golden nanmu outside. If we really can't keep it, we can Find a way to dispose of it and make sure no one discovers it."
"Sure, we'll share the money after it's sold." Wan Chaogui said excitedly.
"Uncle Wan, you discovered this tree and cut it down. We can't share the money." Chen Wanbai refused decisively, and Mrs. Liu nodded in agreement.
Although this will be a large sum of money, it does not mean that you cannot take what you deserve.
"What's wrong with this? I told you it was for you. And if you hadn't recognized it, I might have chopped it up and burned it as firewood."dropped. "
This is indeed true. Wan Chaogui has passed by this dead tree many times, and he has thought of cutting it down and taking it home for firewood, but he has never taken action.
Chen Wanbai and Liu were still determined not to take it. Seeing their resolute attitude, Wan Chaogui had no choice but to give up temporarily.
However, he was thinking in his heart that at the moment, anyway. If you can’t sell it, let’s do this for now. When you get enough money from selling it later, you can distribute the money to them.
“Uncle Wan, do you have a suitable place to hide this tree. ? It's obviously not suitable for us here. "Chen Wanbai looked around and looked at this impoverished home.
"In this way, my house has a cellar, so just hide it in my place and cover it up with some sundries so no one will notice. of. "Wan Chaogui thought that he had a relatively large cellar in his home, which was originally used to store prey. However, there were not many prey in recent years, and they were all sold, so the cellar was not used much.
" By the way, Uncle Wan, this tree still has some branches and other branches. Remember to pick them up and take them home. "

Wan Chaogui nodded, put the golden nanmu on the ground on his shoulders, waved his hand and walked towards his home Gone.
Chen Wanbai and Mrs. Liu looked at Wan Chaogui's retreating figure, and felt temporarily relieved.
After Wan Chaogui left, Mrs. Liu. After doing housework, Chen Wanbai began to dig the water tank right below the tap water.
For a whole afternoon, he started digging. Chen Wanbai was concentrating on the excavation work. During this period, Mrs. Liu also wanted to come to help, but she refused. She asked Mrs. Liu to embroider the handkerchief.
Since both of them had already sewed their clothes. After making enough to change, Liu began to embroider the handkerchiefs. These embroidered handkerchiefs could be sold in the town in exchange for money.
The current reservoir is actually not available. The digging didn't need to be particularly big, so Chen Wanbai refused Liu's help. She happened to plan to go to the town tomorrow, and then she could take the handkerchiefs Liu had embroidered during this period to see if they could be sold. How much money?
In the evening, Chen Wanbai had stopped what he was doing and looked at the already taking shape of the reservoir, smiling with satisfaction.
"Xiao Bai, go wash your hands and come over for dinner. "Ms. Liu stood in front of the kitchen door and shouted.
Chen Wanbai responded, put down his tools, washed his hands briefly, and then walked towards the kitchen.

"Mom, I'm going to town tomorrow, will you go? "
Hearing Chen Wanbai's words, Mrs. Liu put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, with a confused look on her face. After thinking for a long time, she finally shook her head and said, "I'd better not go. "
"Mom, go ahead. I don't know how much these veils of yours can be sold for. "
"Just send the veil directly to Mrs. Sun. She won't trick us. "
"Then if Mrs. Sun asks you whether you want to take any more work and what kind of work you want to take, and you are not here, how should I answer? "
Ms. Liu thought that she should go and explain to Mrs. Sun herself, so she said hesitantly: "This..."
In the afternoon, Chen Wanbai had made an appointment with Wan Chaogui. She was going to sell game, so she decided to go in Wan Chaogui's oxcart. She was worried that she, a widow, would easily attract gossip from others if she was seen walking with them.

Madam Liu was a little shaken by what Chen Wanbai said. After thinking for a moment, she finally nodded.
Seeing Madam Liu agreed, Chen Wanbai continued to eat.
