The material of this jewelry box is brass, the lid is square, the body of the box is slightly flattened, the two sides are bulging outwards in an arc, and the lower end has four small short legs that are outwardly skimmed, which looks like a piece of furniture that has been reduced countless times, which is very distinctive.

The color of the jewelry box is very beautiful, at first glance it is the kind of old copper that has at least gone through decades of precipitation, the four corners of the lid are embossed with flowers and plants, and in the middle is a blooming rose, the box body is also decorated with lace, and there is also a lock nose, although a small copper lock hanging on the top is a new object, but the color matching is very suitable.

After activating the spirit card, the identification conclusion of the jewelry box is very normal, this is a jewelry box pressed and carved by a handicraft workshop in Italy at the beginning of the last century, called the Great Rose Princess. But another piece of information made Li Yi feel a little surprised.

Masonic coat of arms, Napoleon. Bonaparte, 1804, No. 33

This badge, hidden in the middle of the lid of the jewelry box, is made of pure gold, and the picture shows a winged eagle crouching on a sheathed sword with a streamer, and there is something like a crown on the top of the eagle's head, and under the crown, there is a small inverted triangle plate inlaid with white gold, and an Arabic numeral is engraved on it, 33.

Freemasonry, Li Yi knows one thing, this organization that literally means "free stonemasons", which appeared in England in the 18th century, is a kind of brotherhood organization with religious overtones, and it is also the largest secret organization in the world.

The purpose of this organization is the spirit of fraternity, charity, and virtue, and they pursue the meaning of human existence and some so-called ultimate ideals, and many famous people and politicians in the world have been members of Freemasonry throughout history.

There are many legends about Freemasonry, the most outrageous of which is that it originated in 4000 BC, also known as the "Year of Light", and the original Freemasons claimed to be descendants of the first vampire Cain, who knew the mysteries of heaven and earth and the universe.

Freemasonry has branches in major countries in the world, and in China, it is also called the Meisheng Society, which is the English homonym of stonemasonry, and it is said that Li Hongzhang was also a member of Freemasonry. At present, the headquarters of the Chinese Freemasonry is in Taiwan, but in the mainland, due to the political system, the Freemasonry is still an underground organization.

The reason why Li Yi knew this was because after he got the porcelain plate of Gregory XVI, he had consulted some information about the church.

From the very beginning of Freemasonry, there have been voices of skepticism and opposition. During the French Revolution, the Catholic Church and Freemasonry began a centuries-long war against Freemasonry because of the suspicion that Freemasonry supported the movement to overthrow the monarchy, and the Pope of Rome held high the banner of anti-Freemasonry for more than 200 years, until today.

As for Napoleon . Bonaparte needs no introduction at all, he is the famous first emperor of France in history, the giant of the dwarf.

It's just that the time of 1804 makes Li Yi feel a little strange, because he remembers that Napoleon seems to be the emperor in 1804!

After pondering for a while, Li Yi smiled dumbly, now is not the time to think about these things at all, buying the jewelry box first is the first priority.

"This box is a real masterpiece, made in 1914, and the atelier is said to be the predecessor of today's Gucci......"

Predecessor of Gucci...... Well, how bold people are, how prolific the land is, but if you don't have some kinship with these well-known brands, you really can't sell for a price......

Li Yi waved his hand a little helplessly, just say the price directly.

"620,000."

420,000 is equivalent to more than 80,000 soft sister coins, although this price is not outrageous, but it is still a lot higher than the real value of this box, Li Yi directly cut it in half and turned a corner, 280,000!

"This can't be, sir, you must be joking with me......"

The waiter was taken aback, these mainlanders were too ruthless, but his price didn't seem to be much lower than the lowest price given by their boss......

"Then how much do you say you can sell?"

"There will definitely be a discount, but the amplitude can't be as big as you said, so, 590,000, this is already ......"

The waiter was explaining, and suddenly a young woman in her thirties walked in, and her eyes lit up when she saw the jewelry box Li Yi was holding.

"Wait, let me see this jewelry box!"

Li Yi glanced at her and found that this woman looked quite Zhouzheng, but the heavy makeup on her face and the tone of voice she had just spoken made him very disgusted.

Frowning, he suspected that this woman was most likely arranged by the boss. However, although he was suspected of trusting, he really couldn't take the risk for the tens of thousands of dollars.

You know, although he can't accurately judge how much that badge can be worth, but if you think about it, you can know that it is definitely not cheap, otherwise, wouldn't you look down on the famous Napoleon the Great too much?

"For the price, let's go to the checkout."

"I said it...... Let me see! ”

When the woman saw that Li Yi and the others not only ignored her, but made a deal directly, she couldn't help but raise her voice, and reached over as she spoke, wanting to snatch something directly from him!

Li Yi frowned, dodged with a flip of his wrist, and said to the waiter:

"Is this the quality of all your guests here?"

The waiter has just made a big deal, and it is very unpleasant to see someone stirring up the situation at this moment.

"Ma'am, this gentleman has already bought this jewelry box, if you need it, look at the others."

"Quality? How dare you talk to me like that! Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi, where are you dead, hurry up and get out of here! ”

The waiter shrugged his shoulders at Li Yi, he met a madman, so he should ignore her and hurry up and check out.

The woman screamed a few times, and when she saw that no one responded, she couldn't help but whisk her sleeves away, and after a while, she led a middle-aged woman with a bewitching figure and a face like a silver plate walked in.

"Xiaoqi, it's what he robbed me! And you, the waiter, don't know me, I want you to open her for me! ”

"Old ...... ...... owner"

The waiter didn't expect that the Xiaoqi in the woman's mouth would be his boss, so he couldn't help but be startled, and he was so nervous that he even stammered a little when he spoke. And Li Yi didn't even raise his head, Long Feifeng signed his name on the POS machine slip, and then said:

"Sometimes, some diseases really have to go to the hospital to see, and they can't be cured by taking medicine by themselves......"

"What? How dare you say I'm sick? Xiaoqi, it's obviously something I fancy first, and then he said he wanted to see it, so I gave it to him......"

Hearing that the woman actually reversed black and white and talked nonsense, Li Yi couldn't help but be furious, turned around suddenly, and swept her sharp eyes on her face, frightening her to take a few steps back.

"Fat elephant, invite this shameless woman out to me!"

"Sir, things haven't been figured out yet, you can't ...... like this"

The fat elephant, who had been eager to try for a long time, pushed the boss who was still trying to explain, and then stared at the woman, and a murderous aura burst out of his eyes.

The woman snorted and said in a trembling voice:

"Good...... There's a kind of ...... you don't go."

Watching the woman go in a hurry, Lu Ningshuang, who had witnessed the whole thing, frowned,

"Inexplicable...... Let's go, I don't want to go around here, the atmosphere is not good, everyone will take it here. ”

Li Yi nodded, knowing that she was worried that the woman would really bring a large number of people over to fight later, and she didn't break it, but just said to the waiter just now:

"Don't worry, if your boss dismisses you because of this incident, it proves that she is not worthy of being your boss at all, let you go, you should thank her well."

After that, he smiled and nodded at the embarrassed boss, and took Lu Ningshuang and the others downstairs and left.

Looking down from the 101 Building, most of Taipei is in full view, especially at night, when the lights are on, the traffic on the road converges into a colorful ribbon, elegantly connected between the high-rise buildings that exude various colored lights, reflecting the vast night sky, which looks extremely charming.

At this time, sitting on the 86th floor of the Dingxian 101 Gourmet Beauty Restaurant, what you eat is not simple food, but a kind of artistic conception, a kind of scenery, and a mood of being at the top and having a drink or two.

Before the dish was served, Lu Ningshuang took the jewelry box that Li Yi had just bought in the afternoon to the table, and after carefully playing with it and studying it, she frowned,

"Why didn't I see that this box had a mechanism?"

Li Yi had already seen the location of the mechanism through the perspective eye, so he smiled:

"You show it to the fat elephant and see if he can find it."

The fat elephant took the box from Lu Ningshuang's hand, studied it for a long time, and suddenly pointed to the rose on the lid of the box, and hesitated:

"Here?"

Li Yi smiled and nodded,

"It should be in the place of the stamen, you can try it with a toothpick."

"I'm coming, I'm coming!"

Lu Ningshuang snatched the box as she spoke, and poked at the stamens of the rose with a toothpick, and suddenly, there was a soft click, and after a closer look, nothing changed!

"Open the box and take a look."

Hearing this, Lu Ningshuang quickly opened the jewelry box and found that the lid that originally looked like a whole suddenly fell off a thin layer, and on the layer that fell, there was a golden badge in the shape of an eagle!

"You say that badge was issued to Napoleon by the Freemasons? Gosh, how do you know so many things? ”

Until after eating and enjoying the night view, several people had already moved to Shilin Night Market, and Lu Ningshuang still felt that Li Yi was really amazing!

"This question...... Looks like you've asked me no less than five times......"

Seeing that Li Yi was very helpless, Lu Ningshuang, who was holding his arm, smiled,

"People are stupid, you teach me...... Ah, my bag! ”

Li Yi was startled, and then saw a thin and short figure disappear in a flash in the crowd, and the figure disappeared next to the fat elephant.

"Damn, catch up and squash him!"
