Collection of Gods

Chapter 904 Humanity is like a vase

At sunset, people are everywhere.

After everyone found thirteen boxes of palace secrets from the third hiding place, Tang Yuan stopped the excavation of the treasure, because these palace secrets were not like gold and silver treasures. They involved many processes such as sorting, identification, restoration and preservation. After these palace secrets were unearthed, it was already past six o'clock, and there were less than two hours left before the sun completely set.

Not only did Tang Yuan and his companions have to get back to the cruise ship before dark, they also had to carry six full boxes of gold ingots, twelve boxes of official silver, and thirteen boxes of palace secrets back with them, so the excavation of the remaining treasure hiding places had to be put on hold temporarily.

Tang Yuan looked at the slightly chaotic scene, turned his head to look at Dong Wenhui, and said seriously: "Director Dong, I know that all the experts are very excited now, but it is getting late now, and we must prepare to return. We can sort out and identify these palace secrets when we return to the cruise ship."

"Ok."

Dong Wenhui nodded: "I will immediately organize them to temporarily seal these palace secrets and wait until we return to the cruise ship."

"Eh?"

"Director Dong, I remember you said this morning that you would rather camp on a deserted island than go back to the cruise ship tonight?"

Tang Yuan suddenly thought of something and teased with a smile in his eyes.

Hearing this, Dong Wenhui shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, even if I vomit bile tonight, I have to return to the cruise ship. I must be the first to know what these palace secrets contain!"

"Director Dong, we have a handheld radio. Even if you are camping on the island, you can still get the news first." Tang Yuan continued to tease.

"Mr. Tang, please stop teasing me."

Dong Wenhui smiled bitterly and said, "Given the current situation, if you let me stay on the island alone, I will be so anxious that I will die!"

"Hahaha……"

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"Director Dong, please organize your people. We plan to return in half an hour."

Tang Yuan stopped teasing Dong Wenhui. After setting a time with him, he walked towards Xiong Kai who was not far away.

"Xiong Kai, come here for a moment."

Tang Yuan looked at Xiong Kai who was mobilizing people to move gold, silver and treasures. He first called out to him and then moved to a more remote place.

Hearing the sound, Xiong Kai immediately chased after Tang Yuan.

"We have to leave people here to guard all night. My principle is to leave enough daily necessities, but not a single piece of equipment and tools related to excavation."

Tang Yuan stood on the tree stump, drinking an energy drink while whispering to Xiong Kai, "Besides that, the night watch tonight will be carried out in shifts. From 8 o'clock tonight to 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, a total of 12 hours, divided into three shifts, all night watch personnel will rotate every four hours. After you escort us back to the cruise ship, you will return immediately. You will be responsible for the night watch tonight."

Tang Yuan always remembers a quote from the famous mystery novelist Keigo Higashino: "There are two things in the world that cannot be looked at directly: the sun and the human heart. In front of human nature, people are always insignificant."

Never test humanity!
Human nature is like a vase and cannot withstand any test or temptation.

Although Tang Yuan had great trust in these brothers who had traveled with him through thick and thin, the value of the treasure buried in this land was really too astonishing.

They only dug up three hiding places, and the value of the treasures buried in them has exceeded tens of billions. It is conceivable how amazing the value of the treasures buried in the remaining six hiding places will be.

If Tang Yuan placed a group of people here all night, wouldn't this be a way to test human nature?
Because human nature cannot stand the test, Tang Yuan uses scientific and effective methods to avoid this test of human nature. He changes the all-night guard work into a three-shift work, with a new group of people every four hours, to prevent them from having the opportunity to be deeply tested by human nature.

"Don't worry, Mr. Tang, I will guard this place for you!"

Xiong Kai is a wise man who appears foolish. He looks simple but actually has his own wisdom. So he knows exactly what Tang Yuan is worried about. "You stay here and go to bed when it's time to sleep."

Tang Yuan patted Xiong Kai on the shoulder and reminded him with a smile: "There is still other work to do tomorrow, you can't stay up late."

"Ok."

Xiong Kai scratched his head and agreed with a smile.

The two stood in the corner, and after agreeing on what to do tonight, they returned to the center of the scene.

The experts from the National Museum, who had been so excited just now, now put the precious books and jade scrolls in their hands back into the wooden boxes. As for the bodyguards who came with Tang Yuan, some of them set up camp around to prepare for the night watch, while the others were busy loading gold, silver, treasures and palace secrets onto the mountain off-road vehicles in preparation for the return journey.

Half an hour later, the setting sun was very close to the sea level, and the fiery clouds that originally covered the sky gradually began to be swallowed up by the darkness.

"Buzzing..."

Accompanied by the roar of the engine, Tang Yuan and others began their official return journey. Although it took them six hours to come, it only took them half an hour to leave.

Dozens of mountain off-road vehicles traveled between the two places, transferring a large number of personnel and equipment. At the same time, the cruise ship also dispatched dozens of speedboats to pick up Tang Yuan and others.

By the time Tang Yuan returned to the cruise ship with a large amount of gold, silver, treasures and palace secrets, the sky had already become completely dark.

The bright moon hangs in the sky and the night is hazy.

On the cruise ship deck, the noise never stopped.

"Mr. Tang, you're back."

After Tang Yuan came back, Yuan Meng, who stayed on the cruise ship, rushed over as soon as possible.

"came back."

Tang Yuan smiled and nodded: "We have made a lot of progress today. How is the situation on your side? Is there any situation?"

"No."

Yuan Meng shook his head and replied, "There is nothing wrong with the captain and crew. They may really think that we are an exploration team. We landed on the island today just to explore the island's conditions and prepare for the subsequent planning and development of the island."

“Keep paying attention and don’t take it lightly.”

Tang Yuan nodded slightly, and then said: "I brought back this batch of treasures from Changjing Island today. You will carry the wooden boxes marked with gold and silver to the suite opposite me later. From now on, the highest level of martial law will be implemented on my floor. No one is allowed to enter without my consent."

"As for the wooden boxes marked as palace secrets, have them moved to Conference Room 3. The National Museum experts will sort and identify those palace secrets later. We should not interfere with them, but we must also do a good job of supervision to ensure that there are no blind spots in the conference room. After they seal up the palace secrets, these things must also be moved to the suite opposite me for strict guarding."

Facing Tang Yuan's instructions, Yuan Meng nodded repeatedly and said seriously, "Don't worry, Mr. Tang, I promise that there will be no problems with this batch of treasures!"

"I don't worry about your work."

Tang Yuan patted Yuan Meng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Let's go eat first. We've been busy all day and we're almost starving."

"it is good."

Yuan Meng responded and followed Tang Yuan towards the restaurant on the cruise ship...
