488 Landscape painting

Standard Chartered Bank is a private commercial bank on Hong Kong Island.

In fact, in terms of bank security and banking professionalism, it is more professional than domestic banks.

After the branch was robbed, the head office also asked the security consultant to review the video of the robbery that day, and it was also seen that Chen Xiu used Morse code to communicate with the police officer at that time.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Xiu's business can be done so quickly, or it would take at least a week to open the safe with a key from Yi Zhixing more than 20 years ago.

This time, with the identity of the VP customer, the procedures were completed quickly, and within ten minutes, the obese man took Chen Xiu through the third layer of security and came to the safe in the silver vault.

"Mr. Chen, your safe is No. 089. ”

The chubby middle-aged man sent Chen Xiu to the outside of the private safe and waited outside, and the private safe was generally rented to place private secret items, so the bank generally did not let the staff follow in for the privacy of customers.

Chen Xiu came to the safe at No. 089, took out the key and inserted it, the door above the safe naturally opened, and he saw that there was a booklet and a scroll of paintings inside.

Chen Xiu first picked up the booklet and looked at it, the booklet looked like it had been a while, it was still a line-bound book, and the cover was written with a few big characters of "Plum Blossom Mental Arithmetic", which was also in traditional Chinese, and fortunately, Chen Xiu had watched the TV series on Hong Kong Island, and he could barely recognize the traditional characters.

When I opened it, I saw that it read "Qian" in large letters: Yuan Henry Zhen. Ninety-nine: Hidden dragon, don't use it; Ninety-two: See the dragon in the field, see the adult; Ninety-three: The gentleman is dry all day long, and he is not to blame......

"Damn!"

Chen Xiu is the most clear about the text on it, which is the beginning of the I Ching.

"After a long time, the plum blossom mental arithmetic of Longhu Mountain is the same word of the I Ching?"

Chen Xiu turned the second page strangely, only to see that it was written in small characters with an explanation of the Book of Changes, and he read it again and again, and finally knew the general meaning.

"No wonder I was asked to memorize the I Ching before the trip to the Book of Changes, it turns out that the so-called plum blossom mental arithmetic is an equation based on the theory of the I Ching. According to this equation, it is calculated that it is a treasure land of feng shui according to the direction of the mountain. It's a bit harder than calculus in college, and it's not something you can learn all at once. ”

Chen Xiu put away the plum blossom mental arithmetic and went to get the album again.

"Strange, ordinary antiques have information prompts in my mind as long as I touch them, why is there no hint at all this time? Could it be that this album is a fake?"

Chen Xiu opened the album suspiciously, only to see that it was a landscape painting, and the painting was a high mountain, and the top of the mountain was full of smoke, like a fairyland.

"It's strange, the ink and paper in this album look like antiquities, and this painting is also very meaningful, looking at the hands of famous artists. Why didn't Gu Yu prompt, it couldn't be that my Gu Yu ability failed, right?!"

This scared Chen Xiu, if the ancient jade ability really failed, his road to wealth would come to an end, so he quickly pulled out a piece of jade pendant from his neck and pinched it in his hand.

This is a piece of Hetian jade from the Han Dynasty, which was originally received from the silly brother, and Chen Xiu saw that this piece of jade was moist and simple in carving, so he always carried this piece of ancient jade on his body.

As soon as the jade pendant was pinched in his hand, there was immediately a prompt message in his mind: "The Western Han Panlong jade pendant, genuine, is currently worth 300,000 yuan." ”

"It's good that the ability didn't fail!"

Chen Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief, and then reached out to touch the album, but there was no hint in his mind.

"What the hell is going on?"

Chen Xiu picked up the scroll and carefully pondered it, studying them one by one from the drawing paper to the pen and ink to the lines, but from that aspect, these are all things from the Han and Jin dynasties, let alone fakes.

"After the edification of many antiques, I asked myself that without the blessing of ancient jade, my eyesight is not bad now, I conclude that this album is an antique, why is there no hint?"

Chen Xiu pressed his temples and thought hard, and suddenly there was a flash of inspiration, "I'll rub it, the legend that the ancient jade and the picture album are all from Ge Hong's hands, and they are all clues to the treasure."

These two things should be of equal status.

Could it be that for this reason, Gu Yu has no way to determine the year of the album?!"

The more Chen Xiu thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and there was no other reason to explain why Gu Yu couldn't judge the album than this explanation.

"If you can't judge, you won't judge, but this album is a clue to the treasure, is the mountain in the painting the place where the treasure is buried?

If that's the case, it's troublesome, the place of summer is so big, and a mountain like this is estimated to have 80,000 if not 100,000, where to find it!"

Chen Xiu observed the mountain on the painting several times, but he never had seen such a mountain in his impression, and he had no clue at all.

"Mr. Chen?"

Suddenly, the voice of the chubby middle-aged man came from outside the vault.

"In!"

Chen Xiu shouted outside the vault, "What's the matter?"

"It's okay, I just watched you go in for a long time, and I thought something happened to you. ”

Chen Xiu looked at the time, but he didn't expect that more than two hours had passed unconsciously as soon as he studied the album.

"Forget it, you can't study it behind closed doors. It's better to consult with Zhang Lao and Chai Lao, they have walked on the bridge more salt than I have eaten, and it is possible that they may recognize which mountain this is. ”

Chen Xiujian's picture album was rolled up and walked straight out of the vault.

"Mr. Chen, our bank has security protection for VP customers. Do you want this service?"

The chubby middle-aged man saw that Chen Xiu came out with a scroll in his hand, this kind of thing is also common for him, and the people who rent bank safes generally store gold and silver, gems, famous paintings, and antiques, and he guessed that the scroll in Chen Xiu's hand is also a type of antique painting, so he kindly reminded him.

"No need, my painting is worthless!"

Chen Xiu doesn't need any security escorts, it is estimated that the level of those security guards can fight dozens of them by himself, so it is more practical to protect himself as well.

"Okay, you go slowly!"

......

Chen Xiu walked out of the gate of the headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank, it was more than ten o'clock in the morning, he answered the bank's call in the morning and hurried over to eat breakfast, and his stomach rang "goo, goo......".

At the moment, regardless of the image, wearing pajamas, I found a store around the bank that advertised "authentic Shanghai wonton".

"Bang!"

Only then did he sit down, the door of the store was suddenly slammed open, and Zheng Shaohuan walked in with seven or eight strong men.

"Irrelevant people go out!" Zheng Shaohuan shouted loudly.

Chen Xiu stood up and walked out like other diners, but Zheng Shaohuan stopped him.

"Boy, I'm looking for you, you go there!"
