Happy Tycoon

Karl Morris walked into the main hall of the North House, and then put the alloy lockbox in his hand on the old Haihuangbaxian table worth several million. Thor Smith and Sean Hannington hung the The key around the neck was taken out and placed on the table. Yang Jing also took out a key hanging around the neck, and then used this key to open the pair of handcuffs on Carl Morris' wrist.

Carl, you guys go out first, pay attention to the safety of the surroundings, without my permission, no one can enter this room again.

Don't worry, boss, I guarantee that not even a fly can fly in here! Morris rubbed his wrist with a smile, and walked out with the other two bodyguards as he said. After going out, he closed the door .

Xiao Jing, quickly open the box. Master Liu said, rubbing his hands, and the other three masters were also impatient. At this time, they still don't understand why an apprentice brought them here today. Seeing this house and those treasures are actually secondary. Yang Jing had already prepared for the four of them to see this Chuanguo. Yuxi, but the four of them have been delayed for too long in the collections in the basement.

But at this time, the four of them couldn't care less about complaining about their apprentices, and all their four thoughts were put in this small alloy lockbox.

This is the legendary Jade Seal of Chuanguo!

Yang Jing nodded, grabbed the two keys on the table, inserted them into the two keyholes of the alloy lockbox respectively, and then turned each of them three times, and an inaudible click sound came from inside the box. come out.

Yang Jing let go of the key and began to enter the password on the combination lock of the combination box. He first entered a series of eleven-digit electronic passwords on a small LCD screen, and then turned six mechanical password numbers from another rotating wheel password, and then this small-looking alloy lockbox was completely opened. .

This small alloy lockbox may not look big, but it weighs more than 20 kilograms. The outer layer is made of extremely hard high-temperature-resistant special high-strength alloy mixed with ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers, which can withstand 3500 degrees. Even if the track of the main battle tank is pressed against the high temperature, the box will not be deformed.

Then the box has four sets of locks, and the box can only be opened if the four sets of locks are opened in sequence!

This alloy lockbox alone cost Yang Jing 160,000 US dollars!

Under the gaze of seven pairs of eyes, the box was opened, and a big seal of Chilong button in white with a green color appeared in front of everyone immediately.

The room fell into silence again, the only sound was the heavy breathing of the other seven people except Yang Jing.

After a long time, Guo Xiaoxiang whispered, Old Yang, is this the legendary Jade Seal? It doesn't look like much.

Although Guo Xiaoxiang's voice was low, it sounded like thunder in the quiet room. Master Liu gave Guo Xiaoxiang a hard look, and then said dissatisfiedly: What do you know, kid? Don't talk nonsense!

Guo Xiaoxiang shrank her head and stuck out her tongue, not daring to speak any more.

The four masters took out white gloves, reading glasses, and a magnifying glass from their pockets almost at the same time, and the second master Xiao Lao said: Xiao Jing, find a soft cushion and come here. .Lay it down and let's get started!

Before Yang Jing moved, Pete Wu hurriedly opened the door and ran out. He couldn't tell that he was an old man over seventy years old.

After a while, Pete Wu came in with a quilt in his arms, and spread the quilt on the Eight Immortals table.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty Laohai Huangbaxian table worth several million is nothing in the eyes of everyone. If this Fang Yuxi is really Chuan Guoxi, that table is a P! Not to mention anything else, the fact that the Chuan Guoxie can be placed on this table is probably the result of hundreds of years of repairing this table.

Master Liu was already fully dressed, he looked at the other three masters, and then said solemnly: How about I start first?

The second master Xiao Lao said: Old Liu, you are proficient in bronze and jade wares, you can get started first, and we will watch from the side first.

Mr. Liu nodded, and then carefully held up the Fang Chuan Guoxi with both hands.

He first straightened his arms and held the Chuan Guoxi with both hands and carefully looked at it from a distance for a while, then held the Chuan Guoxi in front of his eyes, and began to study it at close range.

Well, not bad, not bad! This Fang Yuxi is very consistent with the records in the history books. The history books say that the Chuanguo Yuxi is made of 'the best top-grade Lantian jade. It is white with a slight tinge of green. It has a radius of four inches, which is about the same as today's 11.2 centimeters, Chi Niu, the seal is Li Si's eight characters written in fish and bird seal script, Ordered by the sky, long life and eternal prosperity, which was carefully ground and carved by Sun Shou, a jade worker in Xianyang. Fang Yuxi is in line with the records in the history books.

Mr. Liu turned the jade seal slightly, and everyone's eyes fell on the corner patched with gold. Mr. Guo also said: Historical records say, 'When Qin was destroyed, the imperial seal was passed down to Liu Han. At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang, a foreign relative, usurped power. When Ruziying was young, the seal was hidden in the Empress Dowager of Changle Palace. Wang Mang sent his younger brother Wang Shun to ask for it, but the Queen Mother reprimanded him angrily. , This is the source of the famous 'Gold Inlaid Jade Seal'. Now it seems that this corner filled with gold is also very consistent with the historical records.

Cai Yi leaned forward and pointed to Yuxi's shoulder and said, Old Liu, use a magnifying glass to look at this line of official script.

What Cai Yi meant, of course Mr. Liu understood, but he didn't do anything. He was supporting Fang Yuxi with both hands, and he didn't dare to let go of his hand to support Yuxi with one hand.

Elder Xiao on the side picked up the magnifying glass neatly and put it on Yuxi's shoulder. Four gray-haired heads immediately moved up to it.

'Great Wei Shou Han National Treasure', um, yes, it is official script, and it is also the official script of the late Eastern Han Dynasty! The second master Xiao Lao is a master of calligraphy, so he can naturally recognize the seven-character font at a glance, and he can write it directly Identify the style of the era.

Although the official script originated in the Qin Dynasty, it flourished in the Han Dynasty. Especially in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the official script was developed to the extreme. Therefore, the official script in the late Eastern Han Dynasty has a distinct style, which is quite different from the official script in the Western Han Dynasty and the Qin Dynasty. the difference.

Xiao Lao, as one of the few calligraphers in China, naturally has a very clear understanding of the changes in official script. And in terms of his identity and status, since he said that the seven characters on Fang Yuxi's shoulders are the official script of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, then this is almost the final answer.

Mr. Liu is proficient in jade and bronze wares, so he can naturally tell what kind of jade is used in this jade seal. So he said: The jade used in this Fang Yuxi is indeed the legendary top-quality Lantian jade. Although Lantian jade is hardly seen now, I have seen two pieces of Lantian jade carved in Nanbo and Taibei Palace Museum. Ornament. I can conclude that the material used for this jade seal is Lantian jade.

Guo Lao also nodded and said: At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the first year of Emperor Xiankang of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Xian Liu Xie was forced to abdicate. Cao Pi established the Great Wei and changed it to Yuan Huangchu. The craftsman engraved the seven official characters of Da Wei Shou Han Chuan Guo Treasure on the shoulder of Chuan Guo Yuxi, which is really intended to cover up. Judging from the seven characters engraved on this Fang Yuxi, it is very consistent with the situation recorded in the history books.

Four gray-haired old men who add up to three hundred years of age get together, and in the middle is the Fang Yuxi held by the master Liu Lao in both hands. This scene is a bit joyful.

However, the four masters all looked solemn, and their words were full of solemnity.

Mr. Liu said: From the perspective of vessel shape, materials, and fonts, this Fang Yuxi is almost the same as the Chuanguo Yuxi recorded in the history books, and when I look at this Fang Yuxi, it gives people a dignified and generous charm. The most striking thing is that the carving technique of this Fang Yuxi is obviously the carving technique of the Qin Dynasty. Although the carving technique of the Han Eight Swords of the Han Dynasty was developed from the carving technique of the Qin Dynasty, it also inherited the rough and generous style of the carving of the Qin Dynasty. But the gap between the two is quite obvious, so I think this Fang Yuxi is most likely from the Qin Dynasty!

Although Mr. Liu did not explicitly say that this was the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom ordered by Li Si, in the Qin Dynasty, who would dare to carve such a Jade Seal at the risk of losing his head? And ordinary counterfeiters can't get this kind of top-quality Lantian jade. So when Mr. Liu said this, it almost meant that he believed that Fang Yuxi was the Chuan Guoxi.

Old Guo also nodded, but he didn't comment, but he obviously agreed with what Old Liu said.

However, Cai Yi retorted: Lao Liu, Lao Guo, this matter cannot be concluded so early. You must know that after the Chuan Guoxi disappeared at the end of the Tang Dynasty, many emperors in later generations imitated many Chuan Guo Yuxi , and after all, it was forged by the royal family, so it might be possible to make a real seal? Therefore, I think it is best to conduct a carbon-fourteen measurement before drawing any conclusions.

Carbon fourteen? Just kidding! This is the Chuan Guoxi, who dares to take a sample from it? Guo Lao threw out a word, and the four of them fell silent for a while.

Carbon 14 identification is a very scientific identification method, but again, in order to conduct carbon 14 identification, it is necessary to take samples from the identified items. It might be okay to talk about other items, but this is the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, who would dare to sample it? Even if it's just a small amount, who would dare to do such a thing?

They dared to take samples from any other heavy treasure for carbon fourteen identification, but to be honest, even the four of them would not dare to touch this imperial jade seal.

The significance of Chuan Guo Yuxi is too great! Apart from the legendary Dayu Nine Tripods, in the five thousand years of Chinese history, there is nothing more important than this Jade Seal!

Chuan Guo Yuxi is no longer as simple as a national treasure, the significance of this Fang Yuxi is simply inestimable! Therefore, no one dared to do anything about it.

Elder Xiao was silent for a while, then suddenly turned his head and asked Yang Jing: Xiao Jing, have you cleaned up this Fang Yuxi? Also, where did you find this Fang Yuxi?

Hearing the second master Xiao Lao's question, Yang Jing let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile: Four masters, I thought you had forgotten me!

Master Liu Lao gently put down Yuxi and said seriously: Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and tell me everything about this Fang Yuxi, don't miss anything!

Seeing the seriousness of what the master said, Yang Jing shrank his head, put away his playful mood, and seriously began to talk about the whole process of discovering this Fang Yuxi.
