Chapter 349: The Sea of Gold
The passage is actually very spacious, and when it was built, the floor and walls were hardened and reinforced with marble bricks to prevent the earth from collapsing.
It's just that traveling in this unknown tunnel always gives people a sense of oppression, and wearing a gas mask, the voice of the soldiers behind him is reflected on the wall, which makes this secret passage even more strange and terrifying from a visual point of view.
This is just a huge fortune at present, and it only takes a few steps to see the gold and jewels that the Travangol royal family has accumulated at a certain time, even if there is some fear in his heart, he still moves forward decisively!
First, the light touched these treasures that had been sealed for hundreds of years! The dazzling golden light immediately filled the visual range, Chen Xu was stunned, the soldiers who came in after him basically stayed one by one, the scene in front of him was really shocking, what was it like to pile up nearly 500 million yuan of treasure in a room?
A sea of gold!
At the end of the tunnel is about the size of a basketball court, with walls fixed in hard marble and supported by huge pillars that are held together by three people to prevent the top from collapsing!
Countless gold ornaments are piled up like sand all over the room, and only the treasure room inside the pyramid of the Egyptian pharaohs in a Hollywood adventure movie can aptly express the huge amount of treasure inside. But in reality, the pharaohs of Egypt were just poor kings who ate sand in the desert, and the princes and nobles in these parts of India were much richer.
"Oh my God! This is the treasure room in the legend...... It's not something that can be moved in two hours! Alan was the last to enter, and when he saw the room full of gold and jewelry, he couldn't help but marvel.
"It's a pity that we can't drive a forklift in, we have to step up our work and carry it!" Chen Xu despised the amount of these 500 million fortunes, even if the price of goods increased tenfold due to inflation in later generations, the current gold price is only about fifty yuan, and it has risen a lot in later generations.
Chen Xu had seen a mountain of gold piled up by a bank with a ton of gold, and the actual volume was only the size of two suitcases, which was very different from what people imagined, and the value of a ton of gold was only 2.6 billion yuan.
Therefore, in Chen Xu's cognition, there are not many gold jewelry of 500 million, plus high-value items such as diamonds and jewelry offset a lot of weight, so the treasures of a secret room are easy to move.
Who knew that he was pitted, just the pile of scattered piles at his feet, the big gold chain with the thickness of his thumb has as many as thousands, and the weight will not be less than 3 tons, not to mention those statues cast in gold, utensils and a wide variety of ornaments, plus scattered colored diamonds and gemstones, the weight is definitely more than 3 tons, and a helicopter will never be able to fit.
Chen Xu walked in the pile of gold, picked up a gold ring from his feet, its ring surface was inlaid with a sky blue gem the size of a lollipop, and put a set on his middle finger, it was just right!
Looking at the ornaments that frantically pulled gold ornaments into his travel bag, and a few steps away, Alan put a crown full of jewels on his head, and asked, "How does it feel to wear a crown?" Is there a kind of refreshment that reigns in the world! ”
"Cool fart, this thing weighs less than a dozen pounds, and it is not comfortable at all because it presses on the neck." Alan took off the crown and put it back on a gold-cast table, and then suddenly shouted in surprise: "Chen, look at it, there is actually a golden bathtub, and it is also carved with patterns, it is really refreshing to take a bath with this thing!" These Indian princes really have so much money that they have nowhere to throw away, and they cast all kinds of furniture out of gold! ”
"That's right, it's a pity that the space in our helicopter is limited, and these golden furniture are estimated to be broken and folded before they can be stuffed in." Chen Xu is also very worried, each of these gold furniture is a finely carved work, with complex patterns on it, and its own artistic value is even more than the value of the gold itself, but if it is not shipped away, it will be cheaper for others, and it is better to smash it at least to get gold.
"Chen! You're ruining the heavens, so why do you have to do it! These are precious art treasures, and it is a pity that they are destroyed, so I recommend that they be transported back to the airport by truck and then sent back to China by transport plane! Isn't your mid-level palace always empty and lacking feeling? Put these gold furniture in it and you will be truly rich, and anyone who comes to your office to discuss business and see this room full of gold will no longer doubt your financial resources. Allen was very reluctant that these gold artworks were rudely destroyed by Chen Xu, and hurriedly persuaded Chen Xu to change his plan.
"Trucking back to the airport? What are the risks? Chen Xu pinched his chin and pondered for a while, then asked.
"There is almost no risk, the problem now is that the total weight of the gold jewelry in the six secret rooms is definitely more than 5 tons, and it is absolutely not enough for us to move all 2, and in this kind of basement, everyone's physical exertion is extremely high, and the degree of transportation must be reduced, and it will definitely be delayed until after tomorrow morning." Alan looked at the soldiers who were busy carrying the gold, and said with a frown.
"! No matter how meticulously you prepare in advance, you can't avoid the unexpected. I didn't expect these Indian princes to be so rich. It's really hard to imagine how much wealth Britain has looted after 200 years of rule in this land, and we are just picking up the residue that others have missed. Chen Xu took off the ring that strangled his fingers, and put it into a golden wine glass next to him, which meant that he agreed to Allen's method, after all, he came to seek wealth this time, and smashed these gold furniture, and the artistic value lost was definitely tens of billions, and anyone would choose to use other transportation methods.
"With so much gold and jewelry on the market at once, it will interfere with the global price of luxury goods, and if all six secret rooms are like this, it will take us at least twenty or thirty years to sell these gold objects, and it is impossible to convert them all into cash in one go." Alan thought loudly as he helped a soldier push a golden chest into a secret passage.
"I understand that putting so much jewelry on the market will definitely bring down the market price, but it's not bad to make a long-term business, and it's all for nothing anyway. At that time, whether it is used as collateral for financial operations or sold in a gold store, it is a sure thing to make a profit. Chen Xu casually picked up a three-foot-tall statue of Lord Shiva studded with diamonds, he was ready to leave this secret room, wearing a gas mask for a long time made him a little uncomfortable, or go out to breathe fresh air comfortably.
