Chapter 121 New Home, Weird Cellar

The main courtyard had been cleaned up, and Yang Zhengshan went to the bedroom first to take a look.

"Tsk tsk, this is made of huanghuali wood!"

He patted the wide bunk bed and said with some curiosity.

Unlike the backyard of the Yinghebao government office, all the bedrooms here are not equipped with kangs, but beds. Of course, this does not mean that there are no heating facilities in the bedrooms. Instead of kangs, fire walls can be used.

However, fire walls generally need to be built with blue bricks, and the walls will be very thick. Not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary gentry and landlords cannot afford such luxury.

"Sir, these are all huanghuali wood, this Luohan bed is chicken wing wood, and this desk is boxwood. Sir, these are all good woods!"

Wu Hai looked like he had picked up a great bargain.

In fact, it was not wrong for him to have such an expression. Yang Zhengshan really picked up a great bargain this time.

Just this room of furniture, the Yang family could not afford it even if they emptied their family.

Yang Zhengshan's mouth curled up slightly, "Find a chance to sell them all to me, and replace them with cheap and durable ones!"

What a joke?

Is this room of furniture suitable for him?

If others see him using such good furniture, they will definitely think he is a corrupt official.

Besides, he is not the kind of person who likes to pursue luxury. He can't sleep on this Huanghuali wood bed and an ordinary poplar wood bed.

Will he not be able to sleep if he changes to an ordinary poplar wood bed!

In fact, he prefers to sleep on a kang, which is so comfortable to sleep on.

"Forget it, change it to a kang for me. It's so cold in winter, and it's still comfortable to sleep on a kang!"

"Sir, this is not good. If these furniture are sold, I'm afraid someone will gossip." Wu Hai said in a low voice.

A dignified garrison lord actually sold the furniture in the backyard of the government office. He will definitely be laughed at.

Of course, it's just a laugh.

As for whether someone will say that he embezzled the government's things, that won't happen.

Because this bed is definitely not from the government office.

Even if it was bought in front of the government office, it is not the government office's. Such things will never be found in the government office's material yellow book.

"Won't you sell it secretly?"

"Sell it one by one, take out one every once in a while, sell the big ones in the city, and sell the small ones somewhere else."

Yang Zhengshan is not afraid of embarrassment. So many furniture can be worth a lot of silver. Compared with silver, embarrassment is nothing.

"Well, I understand!" What else can Wu Hai say? We just do whatever the master asks us to do.

Yang Zhengshan is happy in his heart. Cao Han is really a good person. He was beheaded and left him so much inheritance.

He really wants to meet more good people like this.

Just when Yang Zhengshan was happy, Song Dashan walked in.

"Sir, we found a cellar."

"Cellar! Is there anything wrong?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Rich families will dig cellars to store some things, and even some wealthy families will dig many cellars to store ice cubes.

It should be normal to have several cellars in this yard.

"Your Excellency, you should go and see it yourself. I don't know what to say." Song Dashan said naively.

He really didn't know how to describe the cellar.

What else could Yang Zhengshan say? He could only go and see it first.

Soon, Song Dashan led him to the rockery in the garden.

Yang Zhengshan looked around. The entrance to the cellar was hidden in the rockery. To enter it, he had to move a rockery that was taller than a person.

"How did you find it?"

Yang Zhengshan looked at the rockery next to the cave entrance.

If the rockery was moved back, it should not be abnormal from the outside.

"Just now I found traces of dragging on the ground." A soldier in his early twenties stood up and said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly and went into the cave entrance.

Entering the cave entrance, there was a stone staircase extending downwards. In the weak light, Yang Zhengshan could not see the bottom.

So deep?

Yang Zhengshan was puzzled as he walked down.

Why dig such a deep cellar?

When he reached the bottom, he was completely stunned.

There were many torches in the cellar, and seven or eight soldiers were searching.

"It's so big!"

Yang Zhengshan opened his mouth wide, his face full of disbelief.

This is not a cellar, this is clearly an underground parking lot.

Yang Zhengshan estimated that the two gardens and the bottom of the pond were hollowed out.

Even the pond was hollowed out!

Yang Zhengshan walked to the middle and found that there was no water seepage.

My god, the pond is at least more than 300 square meters, and there is no trace of water seepage under it.

The waterproofing is really good.

This is not a cellar, this is simply an underground parking lot.

But it is obviously not for parking.

Who built it?

Cao Han?

Or the previous garrison commander?

Or has it been there since the beginning?

Yang Zhengshan's mind is full of question marks.

"Are there any other special places?"

"Sir, this way!" Song Dashan stepped forward and led Yang Zhengshan to the wall.

The walls are all made of blue bricks, and the pillars in the cellar are also made of blue bricks.

The money spent on building such an underground space is definitely not a small amount.

Looking at the tunnel on the wall, Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but frown.

"Where does this tunnel lead to?"

"I don't know. It collapsed about 300 meters inside. The collapsed location is in a residential house in the north, but no one lives in that residential house." Song Dashan said.

Yang Zhengshan looked down at the depths of the tunnel, frowning even more deeply.

"Anything else?"

"No."

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, then turned around the entire underground space along the wall. After knocking on the wall for a long time, he found that there was no dark room, so he walked out.

"Keep looking!" Yang Zhengshan ordered.

Such a large cellar can definitely not be built in a short time, and the manpower and material resources spent are definitely not a small number.

That passage should be the key, but now it has collapsed and cannot be dug out in a short time.

And it is not appropriate for him to make a big move now.

Song Dashan continued to search with people.

This time they dug almost three feet into the ground, but did not find any other special places.

The sky darkened. Since they just came today and the preparations are not complete, dinner is very simple.

The Yang family was very satisfied with the new home.

"Dad, we don't have much food with us, we need to buy some!"

After dinner, Wang said to Yang Zhengshan.

"You can buy whatever you need. Is there enough silver?" Yang Zhengshan thought about the cellar and said casually.

"It's enough. The head of the family gave me 100 taels this month, and I haven't spent much yet."

Wang said with a smile.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the Yang family and said, "Try not to go out recently. If there is anything, you can leave it to Wu Hai!"

From the beginning when he received the transfer order, he felt that something was wrong with this matter.

Now that he came to Anyuanzhou City, he felt even more wrong.

The attitude of those officials towards him before, and the underground space he just saw, all showed that there was a problem here.

Now he hasn't figured out the situation yet, so it's better to be as careful as possible.

Everyone dispersed, and Yang Zhengshan sat at the desk in the study and fell into deep thought.

Da Da Da~

The door was knocked.

"Come in!"

"Dad!"

The people who came were Yang Mingcheng and Ding Qiu.

He and Ding Qiu came to the state city in advance. Counting the days, they should have been here for more than ten days.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan had arranged for someone to find them before entering the state city, and told him not to come during the day and come at night.

"Has anyone seen it?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"No, but someone is watching here!" Ding Qiu said.

Yang Zhengshan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Tell me in detail."

"When we came here, we found that someone outside the door had been watching here all the time. I checked around and found that there were at least a dozen people watching in the front yamen and the backyard, and they were all warriors!" Ding Qiu said.

Yang Zhengshan took a deep breath.

Trouble!

This is a big pit.

But he has already jumped in!

"What have you found these days?"

Yang Mingcheng took out a booklet and said, "Dad, this is the information you asked us to investigate!"

Yang Zhengshan took the booklet and read it.

The booklet records the information of officials in various government offices in the state city, as well as some information about wealthy families.

The main officials in the prefecture city can be divided into three parts, one part is the officials under the garrison, one part is the prefecture office, and the last part is the military preparation.

In more than ten days, Yang Mingcheng and his team could not find any secrets, but only some obvious information.

The age, origin, family background, character and family situation of the main officials.

From this information alone, Yang Zhengshan did not find anything unusual.

"Are there any other findings?"

Yang Mingcheng shook his head and said, "No."

Yang Zhengshan put down the book, stroked his beard and thought for a while, and said, "Don't come back yet, hide outside first, don't expose your contact with your family!"

"First check Qianzong Xu Wanfu and Guantunguan Tian Gui!"

"In addition, there is Lingli Zhou Ren!"

No matter what is hidden in this Anyuan prefecture city, he must first take control of the garrison office. As long as he has the military power, he will have the confidence to face anything.

Otherwise, he is just a commander who is empty and has to be restrained in the face of anything.

"Well, Dad, I understand!"

Yang Zhengshan looked at Yang Mingcheng with some concern, "You guys be careful!"

"If you encounter trouble, listen to Ding Qiu's advice."

Yang Mingcheng is too honest and is not suitable for doing such sneaky things.

Fortunately, Ding Qiu has rich experience and deep thoughts. With him helping Yang Mingcheng, there should be no problem.

As for whether Ding Qiu will betray his master, Yang Zhengshan has no such worries.

This period of time has allowed him to understand Ding Qiu's character. Although Ding Qiu is a little more thoughtful, he has no intention of betraying his master.

This is related to Ding Qiu's background and experience. He is a son of the Zhang family and has long been accustomed to being a slave. Even if he has acquired cultivation, he has never thought of betraying his master.

What's more, he has a wife and children.
