Chapter 407: A Priceless Treasure in a Rattan Box

............, "Quick, move things in!" As soon as the car stopped at the door, Li Yuncong began to shout in a hurry.

"Li Yuncong, stepping on your tail, what are you yelling about!" was inexplicably forced by Liu Dong to drive back, and Miss Jiang was angry.

"Hehe, you don't know, Xiaodong has picked up the treasure again this time!" Li Yuncong said enviously.

"Baby, what baby, why didn't I see it!" Then, Jiang Tingting's eyes stopped at the four big boxes behind the butt of the car, "The baby you are talking about, it can't be these four broken boxes, right?"

Looking at the unbelievable look on Jiang Tingting's face, Liu Dong, who took out the key to open the door, turned around and said with a smile: "Tingting, don't look at this box is inconspicuous, but there is something else among them!"

"What's the other thing?, you mean there's something hidden here?" Zhuang Wen said curiously.

"Hehe, you'll know later!" said Liu Dong as he began to untie the ropes tied to the car.

"Cut, still sell Guanzi!" Although she said this, the curiosity in Jiang Tingting's heart was successfully provoked by Liu Dong, and she also came up to help at the moment. And Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen were naturally not idle.

"Damn, why is it so heavy! Isn't this thing rattan?" Originally, it was very easy to see Liu Dong alone, but when Li Yuncong got started, he found that what he thought was very light in his heart weighed about forty kilograms.

"Okay, let's put the things there first, I'll take them later!" As he spoke, Liu Dong entered the door with one hand and two boxes sideways. Walked in.

Considering that it's still early. Zhang's mother hasn't gotten up yet. So when Liu Dong walked to the patio, he deliberately lightened his steps. Pushed open the door of the east wing where he lived and walked in. Put the boxes down, and then pack up the things in the living room to make sure all four boxes can be put down, and then turn around and go out.

Soon, the last two boxes were brought in with the knife that Liu Dong bought.

Wait for Liu Dong to open the wait in the room. Li Yuncong had already rubbed his hands and couldn't wait to say: "Xiaodong, take out the baby quickly, let us open our eyes too." ”

"Hehe, don't worry! You take out all the things in the four boxes first, and I'll go find something!" After finishing speaking, Liu Dong didn't wait for a few people to reply, he got up and went out the door, then walked to the hall, and after sitting on the sofa for half a minute, he stood up. By the time he went out again, a hacksaw had already appeared in his hand.

Of course. This is what he has stored in the mustard seed space before, since the time of apprenticeship in the back mountain of Mount Tai, after the mustard seed space was doubled, he has enough storage space, so for the convenience of his own life, Liu Dong has stored a lot of things in it, eating, using, wearing, large and small, everything, all of which have caught up with the supermarket!

"Xiaodong, what are you doing with that hacksaw?" After Liu Dong came in, Li Yuncong said in surprise.

"No, how can you find a baby?" After replying with a smile, Liu Dong walked to a rattan box and squatted down. Different from ordinary boxes, the thickness of this rattan box is about six centimeters, and in addition to the space occupied by the inner and outer layers of rattan, there is also a mezzanine of nearly five centimeters.

According to the young man in the jacket, the mezzanine of the four boxes had steel plates and wooden blocks inside, so they were exceptionally strong, and they had been used in his house for seventy or eighty years, and they still did not have the slightest damage.

However, Liu Dong understands that the real situation is not as simple as the young man in the jacket said. Hidden in the inner wall of these four boxes are priceless treasures!

Noticing Liu Dong's movements, the three people around him also saw the clues.

"Liu Dong, the treasure you said is in the mezzanine of these boxes?" Jiang Tingting asked hesitantly.

"Not bad!"

"Then how do you know? Do you see it?" Jiang Tingting was deeply skeptical.

"Intuition!" Liu Dong looked up and smiled mysteriously.

Jiang Tingting was obviously not satisfied with this answer, but seeing that Liu Dong was immersed in work, she wisely did not ask again.

With the screeching sound of 'snort'......', the outer wall of the box was gradually sawed open. However, these rattans boiled in tung oil are really strong enough, although after hundreds of years, Liu Dong's strength in his hands is not small, but it still takes a lot of effort to saw the left side of the box along the corner.

"Hey, look, there's really something in there!!" Zhuang Wen's angle was facing the section cut by Liu Dong, so at a glance, he saw a corner of the earthy yellow package exposed in the section of the rattan box.

"There's really something in there!"

After Liu Dong completely cut the section, the three of them could see it clearly, there were two extremely thin steel plates between the two layers of rattan, and between the two steel plates were two oilcloth wraps.

After Liu Dong's rattan and steel plates were removed, two yellow tarpaulins with a length of nearly 80 centimeters, a width of nearly 40 centimeters, and a thickness of nearly 5 centimeters were taken out from the middle and wrapped.

"Open it up and see what's inside?" Jiang Tingting said impatiently. Of course, no one is not curious at this moment, even Liu Dong himself wants to know.

Therefore, several people hurriedly put two paper bags that combined together and weighed nearly five kilograms, and hurriedly hugged them to the side of the table.

The time for the oilcloth package to be hidden should not be short, and a thick layer of dust fell on the outer eaves, and after everyone took a towel and wiped the two oilcloth packages clean, they were ready to open it from the seal.

"What are these white ones?" Zhuang Wen asked, pointing to the white hard object glued between the two layers of tarpaulin.

"This is wax, it has the effect of waterproofing!" Saying that, Liu Dong took out a carving knife from the mustard seed space, and now the attention of the other three was all on this mysterious oilcloth package, but they didn't pay attention to the knife that suddenly appeared in Liu Dong's hand.

After Liu Dong carefully cut along the opening and opened the tarpaulin, a stack of thick, pale yellow paper with a hint of ink appeared in front of the four people.

"This seems to be an architectural blueprint, it's so beautiful!" Li Yuncong was the first to say.

"Why does this picture look so familiar?" Hearing Jiang Tingting's words, Zhuang Wen also nodded in agreement, but looking at the confusion on her face, it was obvious that she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

"This is the design of the 'Haiyan Hall' in the Western Building Complex of the Old Summer Palace!" Liu Dong said with a hint of excitement in his tone.

"Hey, it's true, Xiao Dongyi said, I remembered it, I saw it last time I went to the Old Summer Palace to play!" Li Yuncong clapped his hands and laughed.

"Liu Dong, how do you see it?"

Listening to Jiang Tingting's words, Liu Dong pointed to the upper right corner of the design drawing, where there was a line of fly-headed small letters'Imperial Yuanmingyuan Xiyanglou Haiyantang Jiazi No. 1'! And on this line of fly-headed small letters, there is also a circle, one side of two seals of different sizes, respectively, 'Qianlong Imperial Treasure' and 'Tianfu Collection'!

"Really, Liu Dong, your eyes are so sharp!" Zhuang Wen leaned over to identify it, and said in surprise.

"Okay, let's take a look at the next one!" Liu Dong said after smiling.

Carefully put this width of forty centimeters, length of nearly eighty centimeters, nearly three pieces of A3 paper size after taking aside, revealing a design drawing, but compared to the first one, this design drawing is divided into six parts, and next to the size, explanation and design ideas and other words, the whole paper looks very full, but there is no messy feeling at all. And there is a detailed number next to it, as well as Qianlong's seal.

Later, several people looked at more than a dozen photos in a row, all of which were the interior design drawings of Haiyan Hall of the Old Summer Palace, as well as the exterior design drawings, which were very detailed, almost specific to every corner, and almost no less than modern engineering design drawings and interior design drawings.

In the end, the four of them counted separately, and in this paper bag with a thickness of five centimeters, there were actually 2,000 such design drawings. It almost contains the detailed design of the landscape of more than a dozen Western buildings in the Old Summer Palace, such as the harmonious curiosity, the yellow flower array, the bird cage, the five bamboo pavilions, the square appearance, the Haiyan Hall, the water storage building, the Yuanying view, the big water method, the water viewing method, the line law mountain, the square river, the line method painting, etc., and the corners and corners have not fallen. How did the ancients draw such neat and rigorous design drawings with a pen without a computer?

Moreover, 2,000 sheets are 80 centimeters long and 40 centimeters wide, equivalent to more than 5,000 sheets of A3 paper, the same writing area, the weight is less than three kilograms, and the thickness of 2,000 sheets of paper is only less than five centimeters. This level of papermaking, which appeared two hundred years ago in antiquity, is simply unimaginable.

If you change to modern, ordinary A3 design drawings, if you want to achieve such a writing area, it is possible to have a thickness of at least 60 centimeters and a weight of 30 kilograms!

"Perhaps only by concentrating the wisdom and financial resources of a country can such a miracle be accomplished!" After thinking about it, Liu Dong shook his head, there are many miracles of ancient wisdom that modern people can't imagine, and this is just one of them.

"Xiaodong, this time you've made a lot of money again!" After reading it, Li Yuncong couldn't help but say with envy.

Each of the design drawings here is unique, and each one bears the seal of the Qianlong Emperor, many of which bear the signatures of designers such as Lang Shining, Jiang Youren and Wang Zhicheng. Taking out any of them alone is not inferior to the value of a famous Qing Dynasty painting.

And so many things add up, even Jiang Tingting and Zhuang Wen, who don't know much about the value of antiques, also understand that Liu Dong has made a lot of money.

The value of these drawings is more precious than any priceless treasure, and they belong to the real treasures of the country.
