Chapter 168 Earthwork Mao Shiqi

The revenge of tomb robbers in the imagination of ordinary people:

"Find a few brothers in the underworld to kill this Master Zhang. Be quick and clean, and don't let him see the sun tomorrow."

The actual revenge of tomb robbers:

"Find Master Zhang's ancestral tomb for me. I will connect with him in front of the tomb, trample on his ancestors' tributes in front of him, dig up his ancestors' tombs, and finally steal all the burial objects."

After listening to Xiang Baotou's words, Minion A fell into deep thought:

"Boss, aren't we too hopeless to do this?"

"We are criminals after all!"

Xiang Baotou, whose hair was a little gray, was eating melon seeds while adding firewood to the stove.

Hearing this, the hand holding the wood froze in mid-air.

He looked around at his brothers and told them:

"Revenge is just a side job, not the main point. The main point is to make money safely, understand?"

"We had 108 brothers at the beginning, and now only eight of us are left."

"Over the years, I have learned a truth: safety is no small matter, and responsibility is greater than heaven."

"How many brothers have fallen into the law to take the blame for us, and we must be worthy of every sewing machine they stepped on..."

After listening to this, Minion B remembered the news he had seen online a few days ago:

"Boss, I heard that Sixty-three has been released from prison, do you want to bring him back?"

Minion C on the side showed disdain:

"Old Eleven, you are really not a human being. You reported him at the beginning, and now you have the nerve to bring him back?"

Minion B smiled awkwardly:

"Four Brother, we all voted to let him take the blame. If he hadn't been wearing a dragon robe and showing off everywhere, we would have taken over the tomb long ago."

"Why leave it to the Cultural Relics Bureau?"

"Okay, okay, stop talking." Xiang Baotou spoke to stabilize the team: "I'll arrange the recent tasks."

"Old Eleven, you continue to contact the buyer in Linhai. This is our main purpose of coming to Linhai this time. If we don't sell something, the money will run out."

"Old Four, take your brother with you to find the old tombs nearby whose owners are surnamed Zhang."

"Old Thirty-Five, you..."

After listening to Xiang Baotou's instructions, the fourth-ranked tomb robber was full of confusion:

"Boss, don't you know where Master Zhang's ancestral tomb is? Do you want us to find it?"

"I don't know." Xiang Baotou replied.

He poured the ashes from the stove into a plastic bag, which he used as a mark when robbing the tomb.

"But I found out on the museum's official website that this Master Zhang is a native of Linhai. Let's dig up the ancestral graves of all the people with the surname Zhang. Can his family escape?"

"All? Isn't that a bit too much?"

"How fresh, tomb robbers complain about too many graves?" Xiang Baotou waved his hand indifferently: "Okay, don't waste time, start looking from places with the name Zhang."

"Try to dig up a few more valuable ones before the police start to make trouble."

...

At the same time, in a restaurant in Linhai, Zhang Yang hosted a dinner for Cheng Laoer and his group for the first time.

In the trio, Shen Xingyue was not there, replaced by a middle-aged man with a strange face.

Zhang Yang was still wondering, he hadn't called yet, how did Cheng Zongwen, who was far away in Shenghai, know that Xiang Baotou and his group came to Linhai?

After introducing the newcomer at the table, he immediately understood.

Because the stranger was a member of Xiang Baotou's team before, nicknamed Mao Shiqi.

Six years ago, he was arrested as a result of a successful police operation to capture a tomb robber gang.

He was sentenced to six and a half years, but was released early this year because of his good performance.

At the prison gate, he met Cheng Zongwen, whom he had met once before.

Then he was fooled into joining Xiao Chu's team and became a non-staff member of the folk archaeological team.

This time, it was this Mao Shiqi who found out through previous channels that Xiang Baotou's last eight-member team came to Linhai.

But they didn't know the other party's purpose.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Zhang Yang felt that the time was ripe and began to inquire about what he was curious about.

"Mr. Mao, what job were you responsible for in the team before?"

"I was a hard-working earthworker, otherwise I wouldn't have been sentenced to only six years."

"You are too modest, six years is a lot."

The other party looked a little thin, but the muscle lines on his arms were clear, and he was indeed a good hand at digging holes in the soil.

After a while of bragging, Zhang Yang asked the question that concerned him the most:

"Brother Mao, when you were reported for tomb robbery, did you think of revenge against him?"

"If you wanted to retaliate, how would you do it?"

To be more precise, it was Director Qin's grandson who exposed the incident.

And Niu Renai was looking for death.

But according to Director Qin, the blame has been put on him, because during the investigation of the case, an unlucky child came to Zhang Yang with a glazed tile and asked him whether he wanted to surrender and report it.

Zhang Yang expressed his support.

"Before..."

Zhang Yang's words made Mao Shiqi's face show a look of nostalgia.

"Generally, there are two ways."

"One is that we secretly get something and put it in his house, and when the police come to arrest him, we say he is our accomplice."

When Mao Shiqi said this, he glanced at Cheng Laoer and smiled apologetically.

It was clear that there was a story.

"The other way is that we find an opportunity to threaten him so that he doesn't dare to come forward to testify."

"Is there nothing else?" Zhang Yang asked.

Because the two methods mentioned by the other party are not feasible now.

The first one is that if there are stolen goods from tomb robbers in Zhang Yang’s house, just declare them and move them directly to the Hailin Museum.

Second, under current Skynet surveillance, as long as you dare to show your face, you are basically not far away from being arrested.

Mao Shiqi thought about it and said that there was another kind that was more wicked.

That is to steal the tomb of the other party's ancestor.

However, this is difficult to operate, because ancestral graves that are passed down in an orderly manner are usually worshiped by people, and it is difficult for strangers to approach.

"I don't even know where my ancestral grave is. This is unrealistic."

Zhang Yang was thinking in his heart, and several others saw that he had something on his mind.

Cheng Laoer was the most familiar with him and took the initiative to inquire.

Zhang Yang was now more curious than afraid. He smiled and told the three people that he had heard that the leader wanted to take revenge on him.

"Have you applied for police protection? Be careful of those tomb robbers jumping over the wall."

Chu Ziqiang first thought of asking for help from the Linhai City Public Security Bureau.

"Master Zhang, you are the future backbone of our archaeological team. Your safety cannot be taken lightly."

"I asked Captain Liu, but they don't have that many manpower. They only asked me to try my best to provide apartments and companies, two points and one line." Zhang Yang was also a little helpless now.

"How about this? I have learned free fighting and fencing, and I have been protecting you personally in the past few days." Xiao Chu said seriously: "I just don't know whether your bed can sleep two people."

Just when Zhang Yang was about to refuse, Cheng Laoer spoke up and proposed a more direct method:

"No need, I'll just go ask the leader."

He brought Mao Shiqi to the sea just to seek revenge.

"To be honest, old tomb robbers like them are very suitable to go in and get a makeover."
