Jianbao life

Chapter 729 Box
When Yi Hongguo and the others heard what Chu Chen said, they all beamed with joy.

As for the distribution of emeralds, everyone is already familiar with it, and after a while, they discussed the specific distribution plan, and everyone was happy for a while.Of course, the benefits given to Chu Chen were not small, and everyone gave him a total of 100 million.

Afterwards, seeing that there was nothing else going on at the venue, the group boarded the bus and prepared to return to the hotel.

After the car drove for a while, Zhang Yanbin, who was sitting on the opposite side of the aisle, came up to Chu Chen and said, "I said, just now that kid Luo Qiming looks like a different person, isn't this guy thinking about it?" Conspiracy against you!"

Liu Sizhe took over the conversation and said, "Hey! I also find it a bit strange when you say that! This kid was aggressive before the competition, but he was so calm after the result. Could it be that he was convinced after so long? I don't believe this situation."

Fatty Dong said: "I think Chu Chen has nothing to do with him on weekdays. Even if he has some conspiracy, there is no need to worry too much!"

Zhang Yanbin shook his head and said, "But don't forget, this is Myanmar, and there are many desperadoes..."
"Uh... that's right!" Fatty Dong said gruffly.

Hearing what Zhang Yanbin said, Hu Yong and Zuo Shan also raised their vigilance. After all, this is not Chu Chen's territory, and Myanmar is indeed not safe now. Domestic is much easier.

Chu Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't be so worrying, okay, Luo Qiming and his family have a big business, even if they have separated, they have to think about the consequences of what they do."

Wan Chengjun, who was sitting in front, said: "Xiao Chen, you are right, but there is a saying that one must be on guard against others, and we should be more vigilant."

Chu Chen thought for a while, and he really had to guard against this, so he said, "Well, I won't go out for a few days, and after the business is over, I'll transfer to the plane to England..."

Next, everyone was talking and laughing, and soon, the bus was about to enter the city. At this moment, Chu Chen's cell phone rang suddenly. He took out the cell phone and checked, but it was the phone number of the hotel where they were staying.

"It's Chu Chen, Mr. Chu?" On the other end of the phone, there was a vaguely impressive voice in Chu Chen's mind.

"Hello, I'm Chu Chen, I don't know who you are?"

"I'm the one who set up a stall at the Shwedagon Pagoda that day. Didn't you say you wanted my box earlier? I've already brought it over now. You won't go back on your word, will you?"

Hearing this, Chu Chen lifted his spirits, and quickly said, "How could I go back on this matter, are you in the hotel now?"

"Yes, I'm at the hotel now."

"Well, I'll be there in about ten minutes, please wait for me for a while."

"OK……"

After hanging up the phone, Liu Sizhe, who was sitting behind him, smiled and asked, "Brother Chen, is the person who sold you jade crabs here?"

Chu Chen smiled and nodded, "Well, he brought the box over."

Liu Sizhe chuckled and said, "If that person knows that you deliberately mentioned that box because of that jade crab, I don't know how he will feel about it."

Chu Chen said with a smile: "You have nothing to say about this kind of thing. If you really say what you say, then what kind of business do we have with so many leaks in the antique market!"

Liu Sizhe smiled and said, "That's true, but Brother Chen, are you really going to buy that box?"

"Of course, since you have already promised, you can't go back on your word, right?"

Chu Chen smiled slightly, not to mention that the box might be what he was looking for, even if it wasn’t, he would still buy it. After all, he has traveled such a long way for you, and he has already agreed in advance, no matter how he In the same way, it will not be like some people in the society now, who only think about their own interests in their minds, and don't even know what integrity is.

The bus stopped at the entrance of the hotel. When Chu Chen got out of the car, he saw the stall owner. At this time, he was holding a box that was 20 to [-] centimeters long and more than [-] centimeters high, waiting at the entrance of the hotel. caught.

Chu Chen hurriedly stepped forward, greeted him with a smile, and then planned to invite him to sit in the hotel first.

The stall owner smiled honestly: "Mr. Chu, I have to go back later, so I won't go in. You should take a look at this box first, whether it is what you want."

Chu Chen nodded with a smile, and then took the box into his hands.Because this box is made of red sandalwood, it is not light in weight, when he took the box in his hand, he felt that his hand sank.

The box is rectangular, and the lid box is all carefully selected and carved from the top-grade red sandalwood material with rich texture. The material is generous, which shows its uniqueness.

The five sides of the box are covered with carved patterns, and the top is embossed with cloud and dragon patterns. You can see auspicious clouds all over the sky, unwinding and curling freely, and the dragons are mighty and vigorous, passing through the vast clouds and rivers, magnificent and smooth.Two glass dragons facing each other are carved on the front side of the box, with copper lugs and gold-wrapped branches and lotus-patterned leaves and beaters in the shape of Ruyi's head. Glass dragons are also carved on both sides, with copper handles on the top.

The structure of the whole utensil is rigorous, majestic and orthodox, the decoration is gorgeous and graceful, the material is excellent and top-grade, and the carving process is extremely exquisite. It is a rare red sandalwood box and is very valuable.

It is a pity that this box was made in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. If it was made by the palace building office in the middle Qing Dynasty, the value would be even higher.

Of course, then again, if the box was not made in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, Chu Chen would not have cared so much.

After careful observation, Chu Chen used his ability again and found that this box was indeed what he was looking for, so he was finally relieved.

He raised his head and said with a smile: "Boss, this box is indeed something I like. How much can you give up?"

"This..." The stall owner seemed a little hesitant at this moment, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Seeing this situation, Chu Chen said: "Boss, you can ask for any conditions. As long as it is reasonable, we can discuss it."

The stall owner let out a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and then said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Chu, first of all, let me make it clear that I really don't want to sit on the ground and raise the price, but this box has been passed around my house for a long time. If something happens at home recently, I will Grandpa probably won't take it out..."

"Boss, just tell me how much it is!" Chu Chen said with a smile.

"500 yuan!" After finishing speaking, the stall owner felt very embarrassed. You must know that the new boxes he sold would not cost 30 yuan each. 500 yuan was already a sky-high price for him.

Seeing the stall owner looking at him anxiously, Chu Chen couldn't help but feel a little funny. He originally thought that the stall owner would cost at least 4000 to [-] RMB, but it turned out to be only more than [-] RMB. Box, how could he not agree.

Chu Chen nodded directly and said: "Okay! Five hundred is five hundred. In this way, it's hard for you to make a trip for me. According to our previous agreement, I will add another 50 yuan. What do you think?"

"This... this... this is really embarrassing!" Seeing that Chu Chen added another fifty, the stall owner was very grateful to Chu Chen for keeping his word. The temptation, he still didn't say that.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, you deserve it." Chu Chen chuckled, then counted a few green bills and handed them to the stall owner.

After receiving so many rice dollars all at once, the stall owner was so excited that he quickly checked the money carefully, and after carefully putting it away, he bid farewell to Chu Chen.

Seeing the stall owner leave happily, Liu Sizhe sighed: "Hey! It seems that this person must be educated, otherwise he will be happy to help count the money if he is sold someday!"

Chu Chen pushed Liu Sizhe, laughed and said, "Your kid has a lot of weird words, let me in quickly..."

Back at the hotel, everyone drank tea for a while, and then waited for everyone to arrive before entering the private room that Chu Chen had reserved.

Youdao means that birds of a feather flock together. Although Chu Chen’s friends have different personalities, they are all more decent in dealing with people. In addition, everyone has a common topic. After drinking a few times, everyone chatted for a while. There is no need to say more about the excitement.

After dinner, Chu Chen sent the drunk Liu Sizhe and others into their room, then returned to their respective rooms, took a shower, and then took out the box.

Apart from the wonderful workmanship, this box seems to have nothing special about it. When the box is opened, the inside is also empty. People who don't know why would never think that there will be something hidden in this box.

Chu Chen took out the tools that had been prepared earlier, and then carefully and quickly pried open the lower half of the box with the copper and gold entwined lotus-patterned leaves.Don't look at his quick movements, in fact, if he didn't follow the steps in the notes, unless he used violence, he would definitely break the box for me.

Moreover, this box is actually the same as the "belly hall", with a self-destruct function. If someone violently pries the box open, the mechanism hidden in the interlayer will be opened, and the things hidden inside will be destroyed immediately up.

Picking up the noodle leaf, Chu Chen saw the keyhole under the noodle leaf. This is the mystery of the whole box.Then, he quickly took out the key he got before, put it in the keyhole and twisted it lightly, and heard a "pop", and the bottom plate inside the box suddenly bounced up.

Perhaps, some friends will find it strange, since the secret compartment is hidden at the bottom of the box, why has no one discovered it for so many years?

The reason is actually simple. First of all, the bottom plate that pops up is very thin. Chu Chen estimates that the thickness of the bottom plate is estimated to be two millimeters.

In addition, there are only a few sheets of paper hidden under the bottom plate, and it is also not thick. If this is added up, most people will only think that the bottom plate of this box is a bit thick, and they will never think of what is hidden inside.
