Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 346: Mysterious mortise and tenon technique

The tired mercenaries have gone to reunite with their families to rest, and David has also led all the cowboys in the ranch over.

"gentlemen."

In an untidy greeting, all the cowboys took off their hats and greeted Lisko.

"Why are you all here? Did the ranch keep anyone?"

Lisko watched as almost all the cowboys he knew came over.

"I've made arrangements, sir, the ranch is all done, and now it's time for the cowboys to rest."

David smiled and answered Lisko.

"You all need another job."

Lisko teases the cowboys.

"You know sir. I have a family."

David replied, then crossed Lisko and waited beside the trailer.

"Sir, I need money."

Jimmy scratched his hair, smiled naively, and then walked over.

"Sir, the materials for the sculpture are very expensive."

Hammer was smoking his pipe.

"Sir, I also want to buy a house."

Weiss shrugged.

"Sir, I recently made a girlfriend, and my expenses are a lot bigger."

This is Humble.

"The wine in the bar is also very expensive."

The cowboy prodigal son Onegin also walked over.

Lisko looked at everyone in disbelief, and could only helplessly wave his hand, signaling everyone to start work.

In fact, salary is not necessary for the cowboys, they just want to give back to the boss who has always been good to everyone within the scope of their ability.

Lisko watched with some pride as everyone started to get busy, and people’s hearts are full of flesh. When you give something to others, and then you can get thanks and feedback from others, you will feel that everything you do is worthwhile. Not in vain.

And it seems that there are not many families like Lisko and the cowboys of Li's Ranch. Everyone's relationship is more of employment and employment, rather than mutual friendship and family.

But Lisko's kind attitude didn't make the cowboys feel that they could commit crimes, but they were more respectful to Lisko.

Although Payne felt very tired, he felt much better when he returned to the ranch, and he did not follow the mercenaries to rest, but instructed the cowboys to carefully take the logs with the stuff, one by one from the container. Unload it and put it firmly in the tent.

David was driving the crane, and the cowboys skillfully tied the front and tail of the log with ropes, signaling David to start raising the boom and moving the car.

Everything is fast and proficient.

There are also cranes in the basic facilities of the ranch, which are needed in many places.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, the 100 logs were completed in just two hours.

And the Buddha statues made of stone carvings were also removed together.

"It's hard work, everyone rest, there's nothing else to do later. David, arrange to supply you with beer."

Lisko never left, holding his arms and watching everyone finish the work.

After all, this is not a simple log. It would be a little embarrassing if the things carried in it were scattered on the ground because of everyone's excessive movements.

Although he wasn't afraid that the cowboys knew about these things, it would be bad if he found out.

And the reason why he has been guarding here is also because of this, if there is any change, it can be dealt with in time.

Fortunately, everyone's movements were light and neat, and there was no situation that Lisko expected.

This also made Lisko and Payne, who had been watching, breathed a sigh of relief.

The job of the cowboys is just to transport these things from the container to the tent, and the following things can't let them help.

Watching the cowboys walk to the dormitory with shoulder to shoulder, David also carried a few bottles of good wine from the wine cellar that Li Scott intended to comfort everyone. It seemed that everyone was planning to drink and revel.

"gentlemen."

Payne stood next to the log, watching Lisko come over excitedly, and directly lifted the cloth covering the log with his hands.

Lisko looked up and down, left and right, and found no clues at all. With his level, he couldn't see how this log was hollowed out and put things in.

Payne saw Lisko's doubts, smiled mysteriously, hugged the upper section, twisted to the right, the original tightly closed log was separated to the two ends, and a golden light flickered.

"Hi~"

Lisko immediately stepped forward to watch. He did not turn his attention to the gold in the log, but squatted on the ground and looked at the log.

"This is called sǔnmǎo".

Payne proudly read these two words, and Lisko recalled it carefully, only to realize that the other party was talking about the ancient Chinese furniture craftsmanship.

"There is a Chinese among the mercenary team. His parents are all doing this, so he is very familiar with these things."

Payne introduced that at the beginning, everyone was worried about how to hide things. A Chinese team member, Li Kui, came up with an idea. He spent a few minutes making the joint of the two logs into a tenon and mortise, and then closed it. Then paint with the paint in the color of the reconciled trunk.

Not a single trace could be seen, and this group of ignorant foreigners shouted and called it a miracle.

Of course Lisko knew it. He remembered that this structure method was very popular for a while in his previous life, and he also went to check the information on this aspect.

The original purpose of Payne's introduction was to see his boss's surprised look, but Lisko's reaction completely exceeded his expectations and made him a little disappointed.

The two of them worked together to pour out the gold from the opened log. The scattered gold ornaments were piled up into a small pile, and Lisko's eyes flickered.

Fortunately, it was blocked by tents, otherwise the scenery would definitely attract a lot of people exclaiming.

"It's really spectacular,"

Lisko touched the gold~www.wuxiamtl.com~ These things have been a symbol of wealth since ancient times. I don't know how many people have worked hard for it, lost their lives, and sold their souls.

Lisko lost his mind for a while, then suddenly felt very boring, and threw the gold in his hand on the ground.

He picked up the sledgehammer next to him and slammed the Buddha statue hard.

once, twice,

The inside of the Buddha statue was smashed open, and the gems and gold ornaments inside were poured out when it rained.

Fortunately, I put a thick blanket underneath it at the beginning, otherwise it would definitely be damaged.

Lisko picked up the nearest gemstone, which was a sapphire. He held it and looked at the sun. The blue was like the sea, deep, mysterious, and beautiful.

The whole area is as big as a quail egg, and the gemstone of such good quality is worth more than the same weight of gold.

According to Payne's statistics, this batch of treasures contains more than 5,000 gold chains weighing 2.5 kilograms, 8 gold crowns, nearly 10 tons of gold ornaments and various jewelry, and 35 kilograms of gold coins from the East India Company period. , 25 Napoleonic coins and gold ornaments weighing more than 8 tons, as well as 9 baby elephants made of gold, and countless gems of various colors.
