Chapter 328: Darkness Chen Cang

"This time, I invited the treasure hunt master to come, for two purposes, one is to see if we can find another entrance to enter the secret room, so as not to trigger a counterattack from the believers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info two, as you know, there are still the last two secret rooms missing, so ......"

Wu Tianyuan finally understood that the purpose of his coming was to find all the secret rooms and let the government monopolize this treasure.

This question is very simple, just find a random treasure and ask it, Wu Tianyuan asked Paitoka to bring a few gold coins and jewelry, and let him study it.

"Legend has it that a saint prayed to the gods to see the Buddha. God then took the form of a mischievous little boy and swallowed the sacred object for worship. The saint angrily chased after the boy, who hid under a large tree. The tree fell and turned into a giant form of Lord Vishnu. ”

The gold coin tells the story: "The sage recognized Lord Vishnu and begged him to be three times smaller than a normal person." After Lord Vishnu shrunk down, he told the sage that in the future worship of him he had to pass through 3 gates: the first gate was dedicated to Lord Shiva, the second door led to the lotus flower on Lord Vishnu's navel, and behind the third gate was Lord Vishnu's foot, which can lead the believers to God's salvation, and the Padmanaba Swami Temple was built according to this oracle. ”

"The temple was originally the home temple of the royal family of Varmar and is therefore adjacent to the old royal palace of Varmar. In front of the temple was a narrow alley in disrepair, where poor pilgrims from afar often gathered. The kingdom of Travanco was very wealthy. It is said that European cooking techniques and meals were originally tasteless, and it was not until the Europeans discovered Indian spices that their food tastes improved. As a result, the spice trade to Europe became the most lucrative business in India at the time. ”

"A large number of diamonds, rubies and jadeites were purchased by the king out of preference, and there were also gifts from merchants from Kerala who paid tribute to the king. The kingdom of Travanco never seemed to be short of gold. King Walma liked to bathe in a pure gold bath, and when he was happy, he would smash the bath and give the broken gold nuggets to the Brahmins. ”

"During the reign of the Travanco kingdom, there was a special ceremony in the coronation of the new king: the gold from the temple was taken out and piled together, and the new king had to bury himself in the pile, implying that he would become the master of gold and wealth. Only then will the new king be considered gifted to be king. ”

"Coupled with the fact that Varma himself was a devout Hindu, his descendants were also obsessed with religious teachings and developed the habit of thrift, which allowed a great deal of wealth to be preserved in the temple and passed on to future generations, unlike some royal families in northern India, who squandered their wealth."

Wu Tianyuan finally understood the whole inside story, and also knew the location of the final secret room and how to open it. But naturally he can't let the Indian government eat alone, such a large amount of treasure, can he not make a little money?

"What do you ask for an increase in the import quota of red sandalwood? 500 tons? ”

Wu Tianyuan looked at Paitoka's somewhat ugly face and smiled lightly: "Is this request excessive?" The value of this treasure is far greater than anyone could have imagined, and after my research, although it will take some time for the last two chambers. But there is still a secret passage in the C secret room, and the gods do not know it. ”

"Not to mention that there is a treasure of 100 billion US dollars in it, even if it is only 30 billion, it is a great wealth! Besides, your red sandalwood is also exported thousands of tons every year, and I don't don't give money, what's the difficulty of 500 tons? ”

When Paitoka heard that Wu Tianyuan had found the other entrances so quickly, he smiled and said: "You are worthy of being a treasure hunting master, you really have magical skills, this is no problem, as long as you can find the treasure of the secret room, the government can agree to your request!" ”

This secret room has been exposed, Wu Tianyuan has no way to hide it, at most it is not in vain to take some red sandalwood, go back and process it into antique furniture, which is also a new product of Tianyuantang.

As the banner of the domestic rosewood industry, the small-leaved red sandalwood is an endangered species, and the domestic red sandalwood is basically entered into the country through smuggling channels. Recently, the western border defense and the customs of Huangpu, Tianjin, Qingdao and other places have recently cracked the smuggling cases of small leaf red sandalwood, which has made the mahogany industry nervous.

According to reports from Andhra Pradesh, India, on the morning of April 7, nearly 100 smugglers of Pterophylla microphylla in the Chitur region of Andhra Pradesh, India, were seized by the local forestry police in the process of illegal logging of Pterocarpus microphylla, and exchanged fire, injuring at least 8 law enforcement officers, and then under the command of the task force, the police shot and killed at least 20 smugglers!

In recent years, the domestic culture is hot, and the small-leaved red sandalwood is the most popular variety, importing thousands of tons of red sandalwood raw materials from India every year, so that the Indian government can see the value of the wood species, increase the ban, and also stimulate more Indians to take risks and participate in the ranks of smuggling.

Rosewood microphylla belongs to the state in India, private individuals are not allowed to cut down, process, and trade privately, if you need to process and trade, you need the approval of the Indian government, this approval procedure is very complicated, so the small-leaved rosewood in India is not easy to see.

A kilogram of good red sandalwood in India is about 1000 rupees to 1600 rupees, which is equivalent to more than 100 yuan per kilogram of RMB, and the average price of a kilogram in China is 5600, such a large profit margin causes many Chinese to smuggle in India, generally transit Hong Kong and then to China. In the first two years, a lot of people took international express delivery, through false product names, and the packaging was also greasy.

Because too many people know this way, people who understand or don't understand have done it in the past, and then this way has attracted the attention of the Indian government, so the government has approved that all wood products must be carefully inspected before they can be exported, if it is the red sandalwood caught by the crime, so many international express companies or logistics companies do not dare to receive the goods, and now the smuggling of small leaf red sandalwood in India is becoming more and more difficult, many people are now hired to bring, a person's luggage is 20 kilograms.

The last time Wu Tianyuan acquired Chen Lihua's rosewood furniture, she imported it early, and there was no restriction on how to collect it into a museum. Now India also knows that the Chinese like red sandalwood, and has begun to restrict exports to raise the price of rosewood. I heard that eighty percent of the red sandalwood in China is smuggled into the country.

There is a Zhangmu port on the border between China and Nepal, where the "vanguard smuggling force" transported red sandalwood from India to Nepal in the past, and then carried it to the top of the border mountain by the border people in the mountainous areas of Nepal.

Border residents can get 400 ni coins for each red sandalwood they carry up the mountain, which is equivalent to 40 yuan. After reaching the top of the mountain, due to the higher mountain terrain in Nepal, the red sandalwood was able to slide down to China through the erected steel cable, and then to Shigatse, Tibet, and then to enter the mainland market by other land transports.

There is also entering China through Myanmar, because there is a land border between China and Myanmar, and the border is long, the smuggling volume of red sandalwood on this route is large. Transit from Dubai, Dubai is a free trade port, and Indians smuggle red sandalwood out to Dubai, from where the Chinese pick up the goods back home.

"Right here, exploding is a secret passage, you can enter directly!"

After Wu Tianyuan signed the red sandalwood import agreement, and had a long-term red sandalwood raw material import quota at a very low price, he took Paitoka to find the western entrance of the secret passage, and he had no way to do it in this secret room. (To be continued.) )
