A man in Shandong, China, Yang Jianling recently picked up a broken sofa from the roadside and found a large amount of cash and gold nuggets hidden inside after splitting it open, giving him a big shock.

According to mainland media reports, Yang Jianling recently found a sofa on the side of the road, after many days of wind and rain, the sofa became very worn, but Yang Jianling thought that the wood under the sofa may be able to secondary use, so he picked up the sofa home. Subsequently, he put the sofa at home in the corner, and did not immediately deal with.

Until the recent May Day even holiday, Yang Jianling remembered before picking up the sofa, take out tools to split the sofa, but fell out of a hand-woven bag. He was curious to open the bag, but found that it contains a bundle of banknotes, a small gold nugget, and bank statements of deposit and other items. Yang Jianling looked at these items, guessing that the sofa owner should be the items hidden in the sofa mezzanine but put into forget, did not check again on the cash, gold nuggets together with the sofa thrown away.

Yang Jianling found these items when the cash inside the sofa had long been soaked with rain, so he got his brother Yang Jianchun to help take the cash to the sun to dry. Although the brothers were quite surprised by the windfall, but the money should be returned to the owner of the sofa, saying “not our things, we can not take!” But because I do not know how to find the owner, so through his niece to call the local media hotline, hoping that through media coverage, the money returned to its owner.
