crazy smart

098: The secret box is a small dark wall with an area of ​​at least 3 square meters.

Lin Li remembered that this wall was already the extreme of the underground garage, it used to be a waterproof wall and the foundation.Now it seems that the Hai family had already prepared this secret vault when it was being built, no wonder it was designed so delicately.

"Money! A lot of dollars!"

Ma San stared blankly at a hidden box full of dollars in front of him, and his heart began to tremble.

Lin Tiancheng was also very excited, but he was more puzzled.After calming down for a while, he asked directly: "Xiao Li, when did you know that there is a hidden space here."

"secret!"

Lin Li would never reveal Xiao Jin's secret.

Once it is leaked, he will have to bear the crime of murder. Even if Lin Li is not afraid, he doesn't want to sacrifice his bright future for a piece of rubbish and hide from here.

Lin Tiancheng was speechless for a moment.

But Lin Tiancheng didn't care too much, after all, the current environment is not right, and this matter itself is very weird, if it is revealed, it will definitely involve many secrets of Lin Li.Everyone has their own secrets, even Lin Li is his own son.

"Let's talk later!"

Lin Li didn't want to waste any more time, so he went forward and took out all the US dollars that were full inside.

Ma San trembled and murmured: "It's all US dollars, at least 500 million US dollars. It seems that this traitor was prepared in advance. Once the wind is wrong, he will take the money and flee overseas."

"This!"

From the corner of Lin Tiancheng's eyes, he saw a painting on the side of the dark grid, and he took a quick step to take out the painting.

Then Lin Tiancheng tremblingly said: "That's right, this is the authentic work of Teacher Baishi! My God, we are going to get rich, the authentic work of Teacher Baishi!"

Teacher Baishi is Qi Baishi, one of the top ten painters of the [-]th century and a world cultural celebrity.His honors are innumerable. If one insists on evaluating the most influential figure in the modern Chinese painting circle, it must be Qi Baishi.

"Ms. Shiraishi's work!"

Although Ma San is not a collector, but he has some contact with him and knows how valuable Qi Baishi's works are.Excited, he didn't bother to count the dollars, and leaned over to look at the painting.

Lin Tiancheng said excitedly: "Mr. Baishi is good at flowers, birds, insects, fish, landscapes, and figures. Every one of his works is a masterpiece in the world. Moreover, Mr. Baishi is good at drawing shrimps. He not only paints the life of shrimps, but also It has painted a kind of natural spirit beyond the common imagination, and has always been the most sought after object in the collection circle. And this "Chasing Shrimp" reflects this transcendent natural spirit, which is really rare."

Master Baishi's largest work, "Gao Li Tu with Pines and Cypresses? Four-character Couplet in Seal Script" was sold for a sky-high price of 4.255 million yuan, and a 4-meter-long scroll "Hundred Shrimp Picture" was sold for a sky-high price of 1.2 million yuan. "Heart" also sold for an outrageous price of 7280 million yuan.

Master Shiraishi's works, even the most common ones, are priced beyond imagination.

Lin Li was also a little excited, and said: "Master Baishi worked hard all his life and painted a lot. One day without painting, he was flustered, and five days without engraving with itchy hands. His creations were astonishing. There are more than 1953 works. It is not surprising that there is one in the Haijia collection."

Master Shiraishi's works have great market value no matter where they come from or abroad. As long as the purchase price is reasonable, there is no need to worry about depreciation. Therefore, even if you are not a collector, you will store them as gold in disguise.

"Hey, there are still a few paintings here!"

Ma San, who was seated in the front, spotted some calligraphy and paintings behind the pile of dollars, and quickly pulled them out.Perhaps he was stimulated by Master Baishi's "Picture of Chasing Shrimp", so Ma San, who is relatively rude, seemed very careful, for fear of damaging the calligraphy and painting.

"My God, Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy!"

"And this one, it's Zhang Daqian's work!"

"This one, and this one, are all high-quality treasures! My God, how come there are so many precious calligraphy and paintings here!"

Lin Tiancheng lost control and was extremely excited.

Lin Li came to his senses, and murmured: "The items hidden here are all high-value objects that are easy to carry, and they are indeed very suitable for fleeing. I have to say that the background of the Hai family is really sharp enough, and even the backup materials for fleeing are prepared." So thoughtful."

Everyone ignored Lin Li and fell silent in the surprise of these masterpieces.

"This is……"

Lin Li, who was in a relatively stable mood, moved all the US dollars down, and found that there were not only calligraphy and paintings, but also an exquisite box.

The appearance of this box is very simple, with the traditional cloud and dragon pattern on it, and there is a kind of aloofness in the simplicity.But the surface is more than that simple. Lin Li was surprised to find that the lock used for this box was actually the lost Three Hearts Three Realms lock.

The so-called Three Hearts and Three Realms means that there are three core holes and three interrelated but independent mechanism interfaces. The legendary existence of this mechanism has long since disappeared in the long river of history.

The three-heart three-world lock not only requires a special key, but also requires specific lock-picking skills. If it is forcibly broken, the mechanism inside will destroy the items inside, and in the end the gain outweighs the loss.So in ancient times, this kind of lock was used to keep the most secret things.

No matter how whimsical Lin Li was, he never thought that he would encounter such a treasure.

Seeing the lock, Lin Li murmured involuntarily: "Even expensive masterpieces are not eligible to be stored in it, so it can be seen how precious the things hidden in the Three Hearts Three Realms Lock are. But it's a bit strange, this box has Dried blood, and even some hard-to-find cut marks on the sides, it may have been obtained after a brutal fight."

Thinking of this, Lin Li quietly put away the ancient box.

Lin Tiancheng discussed with everyone until the end, and smiled proudly: "Haha... With these things, the gap in the villa's funds can be made up."

Lin Li put away the ancient box and asked, "Dad, such a large amount of dollars is not easy to digest, and it is easy to be misunderstood."

Ma San patted his chest and said: "It doesn't matter, the current underground bank system is so developed, we can use it to convert it into RMB, and we can also earn some interest."

Lin Li was speechless for a moment.

Such a simple and convenient solution is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people.As the saying goes, snakes have their own way of snakes, and rats have their own ways. As expected, each has its own advantages.

Clap!

Lin Tiancheng said loudly: "Okay, today's matter is officially kept secret! After all, this matter is relatively sensitive, and I am afraid of attracting the attention of some greedy people."

Ma San asked dissatisfiedly: "Old Lin, in your eyes, am I the kind of person who doesn't care about the importance?"

Bi Han said: "Mr. Lin, Bi Han knows that this matter is more sensitive, so he won't talk nonsense."

Gao Jin patted his chest and assured: "Mr. Lin, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense. If you give me such a good job position, if I rebel, it will be too inhuman."

Seeing the assurances of the three "outsiders", Lin Tiancheng also breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Li said: "Dad, I'll stay here tonight. After all, these things are more sensitive, and if you run around with them, they will easily attract attention."

"Alright!"

Lin Tiancheng looked at the time and said: "Anyway, it's just a little messy here, and all the necessary living facilities are still normal, why don't we clean up first and settle our dinner here!"

"it is good!"

"I also want to experience the taste of living in a luxury villa!"

"Well, it's still Lao Lin's kindness, let's try something new first."

The three "outsiders" cheered immediately.

The scene was joyous.

……

……

"hateful!"

Lin Li wished he could smash the ancient box in front of him.

He originally wanted to use identification techniques to decipher the mechanism, but the continuous identification failures and backlash caused him huge damage.If it weren't for the fact that there were no outsiders in the entire villa, Lin Li could use the system recklessly and gobble up all kinds of tonics, otherwise he would be lying on the ground waiting to die now.

Holding the ancient box, Lin Li said with a wry smile, "It's hard for that sculptor to be able to carve iron birch like this!"

Iron birch, an extremely hard wood.It is three times harder than oak and twice as hard as ordinary steel. It is the hardest wood in the world, and people use it as a substitute for metal.Iron birch also has some wonderful properties. Because of its extremely dense texture, it sinks as soon as it is placed in water; even if it is soaked in water for a long time, its interior can still remain dry, so this kind of wood is ancient. Those used for anti-corrosion and waterproofing often appear in special places such as underground palaces, or are made into special preservation tools.

It is twice as hard as ordinary steel. It is really beyond the reach of ordinary people to carve and make mechanisms on such wood.

Lin Li admires this sculptor very much, at least he can't do this currently.

"It seems that I can only ask Teacher Xu for help!"

Lin Li couldn't figure it out after much deliberation, so he could only put away the ancient box and look in the direction of the Normal University.

In Lin Li's relationship circle, only Xu Nanxia was the most likely to break the Three Hearts Three Realms Lock.Even if Xu Nanxia can't do it, but with his lofty status in the circle, I believe it will not be difficult to find a suitable cracker.

Lin Li is really curious, what kind of treasure needs to use an iron birch wooden box and protect it with a three-heart three-world lock?Regarding this matter, Lin Li's curiosity far exceeded those of the newly acquired antiques and artworks, and he wished he could rush to the Normal University and ask Teacher Xu for help.

bell……

The phone rings.

Seeing that the calling number was Zhou Xiaojie, Lin Li answered it quickly.

Zhou Xiaojie was very anxious and asked directly: "Xiao Li, where are you now?"

Lin Li replied, "Hai Family Villa."

Zhou Xiaojie said: "Wait for me, I have a guest who wants to see you."

Lin Li was a little puzzled, but he agreed: "Okay, I'm the only one here."

Zhou Xiaojie then said: "Give me 30 minutes, we'll be there right away. Also, this guest is more honorable, so you have to be careful."

"Oh!"

Lin Li became slightly interested.

Everyone knows that Zhou Xiaojie is not an ordinary person.But even he said that he is a noble person, what a prominent person must be.

All this time, Lin Li hadn't had much socializing with big shots.The only important people he knew were Xu Tiannan, who had a special status, and the elders he knew at Xu Nanxia's house.

Now that a big person is coming over suddenly, it is worthy of Lin Li's vigilance.
