The richest man starts from the treasure hunt in the container

Chapter 99 Hurry up to send money!
Zhu Yu stuffed the pot into his pocket, hurriedly stuffed the soil back with his hands, and put the wooden stick back together.

It's too hasty, and the traces are still very obvious. If the owner looks carefully, he will definitely find the problem!

The owner of the house had already walked to the door of the kitchen, Zhu Yu was heartbroken, and simply went up to meet him, and let him go away first!

"Sir, I'm going to buy that record player!"

As soon as the landlord appeared, Zhu Yu opened his mouth.

The homeowner was a little puzzled, and just about to ask, someone yelled outside, so the homeowner had to say "sorry", turned around and left in a hurry.

Zhu Yu heaved a sigh of relief, quickly turned around and pulled the wooden strips away, retracted the scattered soil that was still exposed outside, and then put the wooden strips back together tightly.

Seeing that the homeowner had finished solving the outside affairs, Zhu Yu quickly came to the study and looked at the record player.

The homeowner went to the kitchen to check, but didn't find Zhu Yu, so he went to the study again.

"Two hundred dollars, I think it's worth the price." Hearing the owner approaching, Zhu Yu turned to him and said, "This is a nice item, I like it."

With that said, he took out two hundred dollars and handed it over.

The homeowner didn't expect that Zhu Yu wouldn't even mention the price, he was taken aback for a moment, and took the money with a smile:
"You are a good collector! Let's take a look again. If you still have something you like, I will give you a discount!"

Zhu Yu nodded with a smile, walked out with the record player in his arms.He is holding a big record player, and his walking movements are relatively uncoordinated. Of course, there is another important reason because he has a very heavy can in his pocket!

However, the huge record player perfectly blocked the shape protruding from the pocket.Those people, including the house owner, watched Zhu Yu go out like this, and found nothing unusual.

Zhu Yu's expression was calm, but he was actually flustered!
Walking to the pickup truck, he leaned the record player against the pickup truck, took out the key with one hand, opened the door, and got in with the record player in his arms. After putting down the record player, he quickly put the rusty iron can into the car.

Back in the yard, Zhu Yu went around again, bought an old-fashioned desk lamp for twenty dollars, and then said goodbye and left.

A while after he left, the homeowner remembered that he hadn't asked the buyer's name yet.

What a faux pas!

After the car drove for more than one kilometer, Zhu Yu's excited mood finally calmed down.

Finding a random parking lot to stop, Zhu Yu grabbed the jar and looked it over carefully.

The old-fashioned iron can, with circles of lines all over the body, is slightly thicker than ordinary soda cans today, less than [-] centimeters long, and when shaken, there is no sound from inside.

The top cover was buttoned, Zhu Yu tried to unscrew it, but it didn't come off.

He had to pull out his knife to pry it up.

Fortunately, the lid of the iron jar was severely corroded, and it took Zhu Yu less than 2 minutes to remove the lid.

Then I saw a ball of blackened cloth stuffed in the mouth of the jar.The reason why the things inside did not make a sound was all due to this ball of cloth.

Taking out the cotton cloth, Zhu Yu's eyes lit up!
It was full of yellow gold coins!
Zhu Yu took out a gold coin and looked at it carefully.

Since he had found the gold coins, Zhu Yu also checked the situation of the gold coins at Chalaomei's side when he had time.

So he recognized the gold coin in his hand.

This is an American Morgan Gold coin minted in 1901.There is another story about the minting of Morgan gold coins.

This gold coin is named after its designer George T. Morgan (GEORGE T. MORGAN). It belongs to the legal currency of the United States. The minting years were from 1878 to 1904, and a batch was minted briefly in 1921.

According to the law at the time, the gold coin should have the Statue of Liberty on the obverse and the eagle symbolizing the United States on the reverse.How can these two patterns be perfectly represented on the face of the coin?Young Morgan For the image of the Statue of Liberty, Morgan did not imagine the appearance of an ancient Greek-style goddess like other sculptors out of thin air, but decided to find a model from among the American women around him.

After rejecting many candidates, Morgan finally selected a woman named Anna Williams after being recommended by his friend and famous painter Thomas Eakins.

Anna was reluctant at first, but under the persuasion of her friends, she reluctantly worked as a model for Morgan several times on the condition that her identity be kept secret.Morgan was very satisfied with Anna's image. He once said that her appearance was the most perfect among British and American women he had ever seen.

These gold coins were produced from 1878 until 1904 and were minted again in 1921.

On the obverse of the gold coin is the profile head of the Statue of Liberty, wearing a "LIBERTY" (freedom) crown, with 13 six-pointed stars around the coin, representing the 13 states at the time of American independence, and the year number "1901" below.

On the back is the eagle emblem, with its head facing left, its right claw holding an olive branch, and its left claw holding three sharp arrows to show that it defends freedom, equality and independence. The outer circle is "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" (United States of America) and "FIVE DOLLAR" ($5) surrounded by Gothic lettering above the eagle's head: IN GOD WE TRUST (We believe in God).

Zhu Yu looked at this gold coin, and then at the rest of the gold coins, and found that although the gold coins had traces of being used, they were very well preserved.

He poured out all the gold coins in the jar and counted them one by one.

150 pieces!

There are actually 150 Morgan gold coins in this small jar!

Zhu Yu remembered that the current market price of one piece was around two thousand dollars.

These 150 pieces are worth 30 US dollars!

Ha ha!

This is really rushing for money to be delivered to your door!
But if you think about it, if you don't have the eyes of the sky, such a thing can't happen-the gold coins may continue to be buried until a certain owner renovates the house and is discovered.

Or just keep it buried.

Zhu Yu drove to Smith's second-hand store again.

Seeing Zhu Yu coming in with a big record player in his arms, Smith greeted him with a smile:

"Zhu, the things you brought this time are not very good!"

Zhu Yu put the record player on the counter and said:

"Let's estimate the price!"

"There are not a lot of things like this from the last century." Smith said after checking, "There are not many people who like to collect them—five hundred dollars!"

"Okay!" Zhu Yu didn't bargain, he took out another Morgan gold coin and tossed it in his hand, saying:

"what about this?"

"Morgan?" Smith's eyes lit up, "The appearance is good!"

He took the gold coin from Zhu Yu, looked at it carefully, and said, "Two thousand two hundred dollars a piece, this is the highest price I can offer so far."

"What if there are 150 pieces?" Zhu Yu thought the price was good, so he planned to sell them all here.

"What?" Smith exclaimed, attracting the attention of many people around.

Smith also knew that he had lost his composure, so he immediately pulled Zhu Yu into the counter, walked through a door into the lounge behind, and said eagerly:

"Which collector did you rob, or did you find someone else's treasure? How come there are so many?"

Zhu Yu smiled and said nothing.

"Okay, okay, I won't ask." Smith immediately understood, raised his hand and shook:

"Can I take a look?"
