Chen Yan carefully looked at these patterns, which depicted a bumper agricultural harvest and a thriving city.

In a field, farmers are busy working and waterwheels pour water from a ditch into the field to irrigate the field.

In the artisan's room, the craftsman puts the molded utensils into the stove.

On one street, there are many pedestrians, and there are various shops, workshops on both sides of the street.

…..

On a pier, a sailboat is moored.

The craftsmen who carved these patterns were highly skilled in expressing the facial expressions of the people and the movement of the sails of the sailing ship being blown by the wind.

There is no doubt that this civilization has agriculture, commerce, artisans, arts, and even the ability to sail, and it is a splendid civilization.

Why did the city sink to the bottom of the sea? Chen Yan didn't know.

Chen Yan put the stone slab into the Spirit Water Bead Space and continued to look for valuable items and clues in the ruins of the ancient city.

Half an hour later, Chen Yan found a nautical chart engraved on a stone tablet.

The nautical chart was explored by countless navigators and is the precious wealth of a seafaring nation.

The nautical chart is carved into a smooth basalt stone tablet.

A continent, a harbor city on the east coast of the continent, translated as Cretia, with Cretia as the center, a nautical line connects the cities of various continents, Chen Yan's finger moved on the stone tablet, Hailisi is the name of the undersea city at his feet, Hailisi is the mythical beast of the sea god, a unicorn sea beast.

Chen Yan put this stone tablet into the spiritual water bead space.

Next, Chen Yan found some coins, stone tablets with carved patterns and words, stone statues, some pottery, metal utensils, and other items that had been corroded by the sea for a long time.

Through the carved patterns and words of the stone stele, some pottery, metal utensils, and stone statues, Chen Yan has some clear pulse of the Cretian civilization.

Some may call the Cretian civilization the Mu civilization.

However, Chen Yan felt that it would be more appropriate to name Chretia, the capital of this civilization.

The Cretia civilization is a maritime civilization that lives on a sunken continent in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

The Chrytian people have a splendid civilization, able to smelt metal, the weapons made of metal are very sharp, sharp weapons and sailing ships on the sea make the Chrétia invincible in the war to colonize other continents, Halis, Etiah, Tandin, Knorit, Nîmes, and other colonial cities established by the Chrétia are distributed on all continents, long before Portugal, the Chrytia established an empire on which the sun never sets.

The Chrétia colonized the continents and plundered a great deal of wealth, which was transported to the capital city of Chrétia by treasure ships.

The essence of the Cretian civilization, the knowledge, and the wealth are concentrated in the city of Cretia.

Chen Yan's fingers moved on the stele to the center of civilization, Chretia City.

……

With a huge harvest, Chen Yan returned to China.

"Hello, Mr. Reynolds, I'm Chen Yan. Chen Yan made a phone call.

"Hello Mr. Chen, is there anything you need to serve?" said Reynolds Thomas with a smile on his face.

Reynolds Thomas is the Managing Director of Christie's Auctions.

You know, Captain Ginter's treasure not only brought Christie's auction house a considerable commission. The total value of Captain Ginter's treasure is more than 800 million US dollars, and Christie's auction house received 800 million * 9.6% of Chen Yan's remuneration, as well as a buyer's commission of 10% to 15%. In 2009, the highest auction price in the auction world was achieved by Carlie's auction house with huge diamonds, and Christie's auction house held 17 consecutive gemstone auctions around the world, which shrunk the waist of the world's rich.

"I have 13 rosewood leaves, and I will entrust them to you for auction. Chen Yan said.

"Really, that's great news. Reynolds Thomas said, "Where are you now?" ”

"I'm in my hometown now. Chen Yan said.

"I won't be presumptuous that I'll come to your hometown as a guest. Reynolds Thomas said.

"Of course not, when is your plane, I'll pick you up. Chen Yan said.

"You wait, I'm in Dinghai now, and I'll ask the secretary to check the ticket for Dinghai Feinan\1 Chang. Reynolds Thomas said.

"Good. ”

A few minutes later.

Reynolds Thomas said, "Tomorrow morning's plane will arrive in Nanchang at 9:30 a.m. ”

"Okay, we'll talk about that then. Chen Yan said.

……

The next morning, Chen Yan picked up Reynolds Thomas and his party at the airport.

Chen Yan drove a BMW X5, including the license plate, handling fees, and other expenses of 850,000 yuan.

Cars are running on the highway.

Two hours later, they arrived at Chen Yan's home.

In the old house, there was a pile of wood.

"Are these all small-leaved rosewood? Reynolds Thomas asked.

"Yes, there are 13 in total. ”

At this time, two rosewood identification experts, holding magnifying glasses, in order to be able to see the situation clearly, also brought a bottle of mineral water, poured some water on the material when looking at the material, and then, with Chen Yan's consent, opened a small window on the wood with a knife to see.

Chen Yan and Reynolds Thomas side by side.

An hour later, all 13 logs were finished.

One of the red sandalwood identification experts said, "The heartwood is bright red, the section is orange-red, with a magnifying glass, the growth wheel is not obvious, the wall tissue is banded in concentric circles, oily, and the density is excellent."

The texture gives people the three aspects of touch, vision and hearing, and it feels heavy and stable, hard and lubricated, and elastic;

In the visual glossy bright, fluorescence rich, transparent fast;

Audibly, when two pieces of rosewood are struck together, we hear the sound of steel striking, not the sound of stone striking, and after the two of us have agreed to it, we can identify it as an authentic small-leaved rosewood. ”

"What do you do with these 13 small-leaved rosewood. Reynolds Thomas asked Chen Yan, "Maybe I'll give you an opinion." ”

"Listen up. ”

"You can make this small leaf rosewood into mahogany furniture and put it up for auction, which will bring you greater benefits. "We can do this for our auction house, including making rosewood into mahogany furniture, and putting the mahogany furniture up for auction, and we at Christie's charge a 12% commission." ”

“10%。 Chen Yan said.

"Deal. Reynolds Thomas smiled and said, "I'll ask the company's legal department to get the contract right away." ”

Rosewood is particularly popular with the wealthy in China, the ordinary material of the rosewood can only be beads, the best furniture made of rosewood is to make China's top rich people collect, Reynolds Thomas has calculated that the 13 rosewood can be disposed of, how much commission can be obtained by the Carlsie's auction house, at least 40 million yuan.
