Chapter 711 Treasure Digging in the Courtyard!

……

This time, he stayed in the capital for too short a time, and the relationship was a very troublesome thing, so Liu Dong did not plan to go to Jiang Tingting now, but he also decided that when he came back from the United States this time, he must find the other party and make a decision on this matter.

After thinking about these things clearly, Liu Dong drove to the place he agreed with Shao Tiejun.

This time, Liu Dong came to the capital, in addition to taking a plane to New York to participate in the Christie's auction, to check how the project of renovating the courtyard hotel was going, of course, Liu Dong was more concerned about the hidden treasures that had been sealed underground for dozens or hundreds of years and were not discovered.

"Chairman!"

Seeing Liu Dong get out of the car, Shao Tiejun, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, hurriedly greeted him, and of course he was greeted by the employees of the Beijing branch of Jiahua Hotel Group.

Of course, because he has long known that Liu Dong does not like too many people to be sent in, almost all the people he brings out to greet him are managers of various departments, and many of them are meeting the legendary chairman of the company for the first time. I was full of curiosity and a little surprised at the same time, because this chairman was too young.

"Okay, let's go to work, Mr. Shao, you just accompany me around!"

"Yes, Chairman!"

After sending everyone away, Shao Tiejun accompanied Liu Dong to take a turn in the office space of the current branch, and then went to Nanluoguxiang.

"Mr. Shao, how is the project of this courtyard hotel going now?" asked Liu Dong.

"Overall, it's quite smooth, and now 80% of the residents of the several hutongs we have invested in have been relocated. Up to two months. The remaining 20% can be moved in full. Other than that. The design of our hotel has been finalized and we will be able to start construction as soon as all the occupants have left, and our hotel will be operational by the end of next year at the earliest. Shao Tiejun's tone was uplifting.

It's no wonder that he is like this, because once this hotel is built, it will easily become a world-famous seven-star hotel, as its builder and manager, Shao Tiejun is honored.

Listening to Shao Tiejun's introduction, the group came to Fuxiang Hutong, which had completely lost the hustle and bustle of the past. This place has been bought by K. Wah Group, and the old residents have already moved out!

Without life, the Fuxiang Hutongs that have gone through the vicissitudes of time look even more dilapidated! Of course, there will be a year and a half at most, and they will be revitalized again.

"Mr. Shao, the design of the courtyard hotel should restore the original function of the courtyard, and in the future, these wires and various electrical appliances should be concealed and not exposed!

"Understood, Chairman!"

After nodding, Liu Dong said, "Let's go." Let's go inside!"

Liu Dong's words fell, and the company employees accompanying him immediately took out the key to open the courtyard door.

If you say take a look at the alley outside. Liu Dong only frowned at the situation of the courtyard, but when he looked inside, Liu Dong's heart was completely devoid of the excitement before digging the treasure.

Guy, the interior of the courtyard is completely devoid of the secluded and elegant atmosphere he imagined, and the eyes are all messy and dilapidated small bungalows, surrounded by all kinds of domestic garbage and sundries.

The garden road, which was supposed to be winding and secluded, has been squeezed into a sheep intestine path by houses.

A large courtyard house covering an area of about 800 square meters actually squeezed out 12 households, in addition to the courtyard wall of the courtyard is still complete, the rockery pond that originally stored zài inside, and the back garden have long ceased to exist zài.

In order to restore the original appearance of this courtyard house, almost all of them had to be bulldozed and rebuilt.

"Mr. Shao, is this the case in the courtyards of the few alleys we bought?" Liu Dong couldn't help but say.

"Not exactly, but more than 50% of the yards do!"

Although he guessed in his heart that this might be the case, after really hearing it, Liu Dong couldn't help but be a little disappointed in his heart.

"In the future, courtyards like this will be torn down and rebuilt, except for individual single sculptures and ancient trees with preservation value! Please ask the best classical garden designer to restore them!" Liu Dong immediately said.

"Understood, Liu Dong!"

Coming out of the courtyard, Liu Dong said: "Okay, you don't have to accompany me, go busy with your business, I'll go shopping by myself!"

"Liu Dong, why don't I leave a few people for you?"

"No need, just give me the keys to these courtyards!" Next is the time for Liu Dong to dig out the treasure, how can it be possible for outsiders to follow.

Seeing Liu Dong say this, Shao Tiejun didn't insist anymore, he did have a lot of work at hand.

After they left, Liu Dong went back to the yard just now, and then went straight to the bottom of an old locust tree in the backyard. Because of the relationship between the relics and the light, Liu Dong didn't have to dig it himself, and his heart moved, a black clay jar with a height of more than one and a half meters and a diameter of nearly 40 centimeters at the widest point had already appeared in his hand.

The jar was covered with a white porcelain bowl, but it was probably broken by the pressure, and in the bright sunlight, a seductive gold and silver sheen faintly emerged from the cracks.

Liu Dong, who couldn't wait, walked to the empty room next to him, found a clean place, and poured out all the things in the jar.

In an instant, Liu Dong's eyes were full of jewels.

Large pieces of gold and silver ingots, almost every one of them is more than ten taels, gold inlaid jade jewelry, Hetian jade ornaments, gold hairpins, jade wrenches, etc., not to mention anything else, just about 300 taels of gold is worth nearly 3 million Chinese coins, counting others, the wealth of this jar is at least tens of millions, or even more!

Because these gold and silver jewelry has not only had decorative value, but also has a collection value on them for hundreds of years, and belongs to the work of art.

However, looking at the several pearl necklaces that had been completely turned into powder, Liu Dong couldn't help but sigh.

Pearls are no more than 100 years old, and this jar of jewelry has been buried in the ground for at least 300 years, so it is understandable that this situation is now.

In addition, Liu Dong will not consume his precious relics for these strings of pearls.

"You can see it, you can touch it, it's really different from the feeling of 'seeing' with the relics yuanguang, this kind of excitement, this sense of expectation, is the biggest motivation for treasure hunting!" Liu Dong couldn't help but sigh.

Of course, after sighing, Liu Dong immediately put away the gold jewelry he found, he didn't have much time, and there were hundreds of courtyards waiting for treasure hunting!

However, not all the courtyards are buried in the ground, after Liu Dong searched for the 11th courtyard, there was another harvest, but this harvest is not as good as the first time, although there are a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, but more are copper coins, so the value of the things found this time is only half of the last time.

"Hey, this yard is magnificent!"

When Liu Dong was about to finish searching the entire Fuxiang Hutong, he found a big mansion door at the end.

However, the courtyard of the gate of this mansion, the original beautiful gatehouse has long lost its former glory, not only the top of the gatehouse is overgrown with weeds because of disrepair, but also the original red lacquer cover, inlaid brass milk butt door has long been mottled and decayed.

Only the two finely carved stone lions on both sides, as well as the complete bluestone steps, can allow future generations to recall the style of this mansion that was once a high-ranking family and full of guests.

Opening the chains casually tied to the two doors, hearing the hoarse friction sound, Liu Dong pushed the door and walked in.

Compared with the previous house, although the gate of this former mansion is dilapidated, the overall pattern is still intact, and it should have been the office space of a government department after the founding of the People's Republic of China, so it was not harassed by the people's houses.

Bypassing the shadow wall and passing through the front yard, Liu Dong came to the middle courtyard, then walked into the living room of the main house, and after a little look, he walked into the room on the left.

If you follow the layout of a general quadrangle, the room on the left should belong to the study. But there was nothing to be seen here except empty rooms, a limited handful of worn furniture, and dust on the floor.

If it weren't even for Liu Dongyi's boldness, I'm afraid few people would dare to hang out in such a dilapidated room alone, even if it was still broad daylight.

"It's a good thing, this is what I want!" looked at the thick wall on the far left side of the hall, and under Liu Dong's relics, there was nothing hidden in the mezzanine of this wall.

In the middle of his thoughts, three boxes of different sizes appeared in Liu Dong's mustard seed space.

The first box is 20 centimeters wide, 50 centimeters long, 30 centimeters high, and it is full of yellow, orange and orange gold, every fifty taels of ingots, Liu Dong counted 100 ingots, that is, 5,000 taels, in ancient times, the purchasing power of 5,000 taels of gold is no less than the current 1 billion Chinese coins.

Those who can come up with this money are all real princes and nobles, or big businessmen who dominate the world.

Of course, Liu Dong is not interested in who the owner of this gold worth 50 million Huaxia coins is, anyway, now that they fall into his own hands, no one can rob them.

However, although the yellow, orange and orange gold is intoxicating, what really excites Liu Dong is the contents of the other two boxes.

There aren't many things in the two boxes, and they add up to three.

But the value of these three things is higher than all the antiques Liu Dong found before combined.

Taking out the first long box with a length of 60 cm, a height of about 10 cm, and a width of 25 cm from the mustard seed space, Liu Dong's face showed excitement and expectation.

When he opened the lid of the box with a little care, two pairs of oilcloth rolls of different lengths appeared, and after removing the wax layer on the oilcloth rolls and peeling off the oilcloth, what appeared in front of Liu Dong's eyes was an old and yellowed silk cloth.

When Liu Dong hurriedly took out a clean long table from the mustard seed space, then put the silk cloth on it, and after carefully unfolding it, a beautiful picture scroll appeared......!
