[Material: granite, jade]

[Year: 1645]

[Grade: Unknown]

……

Tang Yuan looked at the appraisal information given by the mysterious ancient ring. He felt his heart beating violently, and he even felt slightly dry.

Unknown grade!

The year is 1645!
This is something Tang Yuan has never encountered in the past six days.

Even for modern products, the identification information given by the mysterious ancient ring has always been ungraded in terms of grade, and it is by no means unknown.

At this moment, Tang Yuan had a strong intuition that this stone tablet was the unique treasure that he had been searching for for many days.

only……

Is this really a unique treasure?

This stone tablet really looks too ordinary.

There is no inscription, no pattern, only three vaguely visible traditional Chinese characters, which when translated, probably means Nanshan Village.

Obviously, this is a stone tablet from a village in ancient times.

It is quite large. Compared with the previous 1-meter-high stone monuments, the height of this stone monument is probably nearly 2 meters. If Tang Yuan wants to see the top of the monument, he has to raise his head slightly.

Tang Yuan's thoughts were swirling, and he remained calm on the surface. He pretended to touch a few other stone tablets. After about ten minutes, Tang Yuan turned around and shouted to the strong man who was puffing away smoke not far away. : "Brother, I think this stone tablet is good. You can weigh it. I want it."

"no problem!"

When the strong man heard this, he was a little surprised to see that Tang Yuan actually picked a big stone tablet. He secretly murmured in his heart that this rich man's preference was really unique. Even if this thing was given to him for free, he would despise it. This thing is in the way, let alone spending money to buy it.

However, despite the murmur in his heart, the strong man was not slow in his actions. He immediately called two workers and arranged for them to weigh the stone tablet selected by Tang Yuan.

Five minutes later, after Tang Yuan settled the money, he asked two bodyguards to carry the stone tablet, quickly left the scrap collection station, and then returned directly to the hotel without stopping.

At the same time, on his way back, Tang Yuan called Zhao Yu, the vice president of Yanjing Poly Auction House, and asked him to help introduce him to a Yanjing expert on ancient monuments.

Faced with Tang Yuan's request, Zhao Yu immediately put down everything he was doing and immediately helped Tang Yuan contact an archaeological expert from the National Museum. Then he drove to the National Museum in person. After picking up the expert, he headed directly towards Tang Yuan. I rushed over from my hotel where I was staying far away.

Zhao Yu moved very quickly. Not long after Tang Yuan returned to the hotel, less than half an hour later, Zhao Yu had already brought the archaeological expert to Tang Yuan's door.

"Mr. Tang, let me introduce to you. This is Teacher Wang Yongning from the National Museum. He is best at archaeological research on ancient steles, stone carvings, and stone sculptures."

"Teacher Wang, this is Mr. Tang Yuan from Zhonghai. He likes collecting very much and owns many precious collections."

After the two parties met, Zhao Yu, as the middleman, naturally took on the responsibility of introduction.

"Mr. Tang, it's a pleasure to meet you."

This Wang Yongning from the National Museum looks very old, with all gray hair, and is quite plainly dressed. He exudes an aura of elegance, calmness and rigor that is similar to, but different from, a scholar.

"I've been a little obsessed with ancient steles and stone carvings lately. After I came to Panjiayuan, I couldn't help myself and bought a lot of them one after another. Could you please help me, Teacher Wang, to see if there is anything valuable?"

Tang Yuan shook hands with Wang Yongning and acted very humble and polite.

"all these are?"

Wang Yongning looked at the intricate, undulating stone tablets behind Tang Yuan, piled casually in the living room. He couldn't help but be a little shocked, because there were so many of them.

"Yes, all of these."

Tang Yuan nodded slightly and responded affirmatively. "All right……"

Seeing this, Wang Yongning didn't say anything more. He took out a pair of glasses from his pocket and walked slowly towards the stone monument behind Tang Yuan, as if he was already at work.

"Director Tang, with your eyesight, I'm sure you can find something good."

After Wang Yongning started the appraisal, Zhao Yu quietly walked to Tang Yuan and complimented Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Zhao, although I like collecting, I am a complete rookie when it comes to identification. If one of these stone tablets is valuable, I will be satisfied."

In fact, Tang Yuan knew very well that among these stone tablets, only the one he just bought was valuable. As for the other stone tablets, they were basically either modern products or modern products, and their value was not much different from that of waste.

Just now at the scrap recycling station, Tang Yuan was trying to submit a task, but as expected, there was no movement at all from the system, which meant that the stone tablet itself was most likely worthless.

Based on the materials Tang Yuan has searched these days, Tang Yuan speculates that the real peerless treasure is likely to be sealed in this stone tablet by someone.

A hundred years ago, foreign barbarians ravaged the land of China, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil.

During that period, countless Chinese national treasures were lost overseas. No Chinese could walk out of the British Museum with a smile, and no Chinese could walk out of the Tokyo Museum calmly.

In the face of foreign invasion, in order to protect the national treasures left by their ancestors from being robbed, many ancestors used various means to disguise and hide the national treasure-level cultural relics to varying degrees, and then secretly transferred these national treasure-level cultural relics to the warehouse. safe zone.

If we push the time axis further forward, similar situations have occurred in all dynasties.

Either the subjugated royal family, or the wealthy businessmen, or the corrupt officials, they all like to use this method to leave some wealth for themselves in various places, so that in case of any unexpected events in the future, they can also provide themselves or their future generations with wealth. People have a chance to make a comeback.

However, speculation is speculation. Out of caution, Tang Yuan asked Zhao Yu to invite Wang Yongning over. After all, he was really not professional in this area. Although he had the mysterious ancient ring in his hand, the mysterious ancient ring The functionality is still somewhat limited.

In addition, Tang Yuan also wanted to put on a disguise for himself, so that if he really found something good in the ancient monument later, it would be easier for him to find an excuse.

In this way, as time passed little by little, Wang Yongning spent a total of two hours, and finally carefully inspected all the stone tablets in the room. Finally, he slowly came to Tang Yuan, his expression looked like Some are hard to describe.

"Tang Dong..."

"Except for the largest stone tablet, which has a little bit of history, all of your other stone tablets are worthless!"

Wang Yongning shook his head and seemed not very interested. Although his appreciation fee was charged by piece, it took more than two hours and ended up appreciating a bunch of rubbish. It was indeed difficult to make him happy.

"what……"

"That's it."

When Tang Yuan heard this, his expression showed some embarrassment.

Zhao Yu, who was standing nearby, saw that Tang Yuan looked a little embarrassed and quickly added: "Director Tang, that's what picking up leaks is. Most of them are for entertainment. Among a hundred people, it would be good if one picks up leaks."

"it's okay no problem."

"I was prepared in advance."

Tang Yuan pretended to sigh, and then smiled again, but in Zhao Yu's eyes, this smile seemed to be a forced smile.

"Teacher Wang, thank you for your hard work."

Tang Yuan took out the red envelope he had prepared in advance and handed it to Wang Yongning. The other party was not polite to Tang Yuan. He thanked Tang Yuan and immediately accepted the red envelope.

Afterwards, Tang Yuan exchanged a few words with Zhao Yu and Wang Yongning. Zhao Yu saw that Tang Yuan was not very interested, so after a few words, he wisely proposed to leave.

After the two left, Tang Yuan now felt confident. He looked at the stone monument not far away, with a slightly violent look in his eyes, then picked up the phone and called Xiong Kai.

"Xiong Kai, find me a hammer..."
