Chapter 208: Hidden Treasure

Zhou Cangsong hurriedly took another handful of small tweezers, Lao Wu took the tweezers and carefully probed into the small round hole at the bottom of the pen holder, moved several times before clamping the paper tube inside, and then gently pulled it out.

Lao Wu put the rolled paper tube on the table, then took a flashlight to look inside, shook it again, and tried that there was nothing in it, and then put the pen holder down.

Zhou Xuan already knew that there was nothing in it, so he didn't use ice gas to probe it again, and his curiosity was already attracted by the paper tube, and he didn't know what was written on it.

Lao Wu didn't open the paper tube first, but pointed to the debris that fell from the small round hole and said: "These are a mixture of ceramic raw material mud and cement, and the appearance is brushed with black paint, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it, but ordinary people won't know that there is a mystery inside, it is estimated that the owner of this pen holder has instructions for future generations, and it is passed down as an heirloom, so it can be preserved so well with this invaluable book!" ”

"Old ...... Sir, let's take a look at what is written on the note! Li Wei was more anxious, and when he was about to call the old man, he thought that he was from Zhou Xuan's shop, and quickly changed his words, he didn't dare to offend the people Zhou Xuandu respected.

Lao Wu took the paper tube and asked with a smile: "Let's all guess and see who guesses the results are relatively similar, let me say first, the year that this paper tube is hidden in the pen holder is at least eighty years, you can talk about it!" ”

Among the people present, Zhou Cangsong and Lao Wu were a little older, but they were both in their fifties, while Zhou Xuan and Li Wei were both in their twenties, of course, they didn't have the feeling of that era when they were written on a paper tube, who knows when.

Zhou Cangsong smiled and said: "Old Wu, this thing, I'm afraid it's a will made by the old generation to the next generation, but it may die in a hurry and die before it can be said, so this paper tube is still hidden inside." ”

Li Wei stretched his head closer, blinked his eyes and said, "Could it be a martial arts secret?" Like what is the true scripture of nine yin and nine yang, the great shift of the universe or something? ”

Lao Wu glanced at him and snorted: "You young man, you have read too many martial arts novels!" ”

Li Wei said curtly: "I really don't read martial arts novels!" In fact, Li Wei was wrong, he basically didn't like to read any books.

"Old Wu!" Zhou Xuan finally said, "I think, could this be some kind of hidden treasure, or hidden treasure or other drawings?" ”

Lao Wu smiled, and then slowly opened the paper tube, under the light, several people looked at the paper note, after the paper tube was opened, it was seen that it was rolled into a tube from two pieces of paper.

Lao Wu separated the two pieces of paper, one of which was full of words, some grass, and it seemed to be traditional characters, what was written Zhou Xuan and Li Wei didn't know much, and Zhou Cangsong, who had the lowest culture, didn't recognize it.

On the other piece of paper is a picture, but not a figure of a person, but a picture that looks like a map.

Lao Wu took the piece of writing paper in his hand and looked at it carefully, and after reading it, he groaned again.

Li Wei was the most anxious, and asked again and again: "What is it, what is written on it?" ”

Old Wu nodded at Zhou Xuan and said, "Xiao Zhou's estimate is more reliable, it's really a treasure map or something!" Saying that, Lao Wu spread two pieces of paper on the table again, and said slowly: "This map is a place in the East China Sea, I don't know much about this, so I can't figure out where it is, and the mapping techniques of this map are all in the Xianfeng period, the practice of the middle and late Qing Dynasty, which is very different from modern times. ”

Lao Wu looked at Zhou Xuan, and said with a smile: "I think this person is a national hero, this person's name is Zhang Hu, he is a martial arts, a green forest hero with high water nature, one hundred and fifty years ago, about ten years of Xianfeng, during the Second Opium War, Britain, France, the United States, Russia and other allied forces burned the Old Summer Palace, plundered the wealth of our country, plundered a large number of gold and silver treasures and extremely valuable antiques, cultural relics and paintings, and then when returning to China by sea, this Zhang Hu mixed into the English cargo ship and waited for the opportunity to blow up and sink a ship, According to Zhang Hu, Zhang Hu said that it was a ship loaded with the most treasures, Zhang Hu joined the fishing boat that received him after the shipwreck, although the boat was blown up and sunk, but the depth of this area has far exceeded the distance they can dive, so the cargo ship carrying a large number of treasures will be forever silent at the bottom of the Yellow Sea, Zhang Hu can only draw down the wreck site, and later his descendants used a specially fired pen holder to hide the map made by Zhang Hu, and his descendants wrote a note and put it together, This note is the reason for another picture! ”

"It turned out to be such a treasure, it should be very valuable!" Although Li Wei doesn't know about antiques and antiques, he knows from primary school textbooks that the treasures in the Old Summer Palace are not ordinary like folk collections, the Old Summer Palace is a museum of the Qing royal family, and all the national treasures of the Qing royal family are placed.

"It's more than a priceless price!" Lao Wu sighed and shook his head, and then said: "I'm not a historian, there is no need to comment on the merits of this matter, just talk about things, I don't think the reliability of this map is great, first, because in that era, the drawing of the map was not comprehensive and accurate, and the second is Zhang Hu, who is familiar with the sea area and has good water nature, but he drew this map with his understanding of it, and if he changed to another person, it is estimated that he will not recognize it, and Zhang Hu is not a person with good knowledge, and he is not a person with good knowledge. Of course, not to mention the latitude and longitude, this map may have some value at the time, but it was not very valuable, because at that time there were no tools that could dive to the bottom of the sea more than a thousand meters deep, and even if you knew where it was, you had no way to salvage it! ”

Hearing Lao Wu say that this was a shipwreck, and there were a lot of treasures, Zhou Xuan's heart moved, but then he was a little funny, this sea is vast, how difficult is it to find a sunken ship? Others don't know that they have drifted at sea, and it is very difficult to find this ship with a picture that is not accurate at all, and there is another reason, how many shipwrecks have been salvaged in recent decades? Maybe the ship has already been salvaged?

Anyway, he is not short of money, what he earns is enough, there is no need to spend these efforts, besides, to salvage a sunken ship, the manpower and material resources are also terrible, but he can not do it alone, and his diving bottom limit is about 400 to 500 meters, and he can't do anything beyond this depth.

Of course, the modern level of salvage is not comparable to the previous era, deep-water submarines, salvage ships, but there are also troubles, such as this kind of shipwrecks, salvage, which is also state-owned property, unlike other countries, as long as it is a sunken ship salvaged overseas, its wealth belongs to private ownership.

It took a lot of effort, but it didn't belong to him when he salvaged it, so it didn't make much sense, from the current point of view, it was still a big problem to find this wreck that didn't exist in the end, just after thinking about it for a while, Zhou Xuan gave up.

Lao Wu put the two pieces of paper away, then found some clay to seal the mouth of the pen holder, and sprayed the paint can a few times, except that the paint was slightly worse, basically there was nothing abnormal.

Then Lao Wu handed the two notes to Zhou Xuan again, and said: "Xiao Zhou, this is still for you, this thing is bought by you privately, you take it, do you want to hunt for treasure, you think about it yourself, this pen holder is placed in the store, and if it can help you sell it, it will be sold, it's late, go back!" ”

Zhou Xuan smiled and took the piece of paper back to his body, fortunately, the piece of paper has been sealed at the bottom of the pen holder, if it is placed outside, I am afraid that it will be weathered for more than a hundred years.

Zhou Cangsong didn't go back, he was still guarding in the store, and Zhou Tao was staying in the stone factory and didn't come back, Zhou Ying still went home at night, and replaced his second brother Zhou Tao during the day, Zhao Lao Er was also in the factory, and the antique shop was in charge again, and Lao Wu was not worried.

**Drove Lao Wu home, and then went back by himself, Zhou Xuan was still with Li Wei and took Li Wei's car back to Hongcheng Garden.

Li Wei was still embarrassed to go to Zhou Xuan's house to disturb at night, and said with a smile: "Brother Xuan, I know that you are going to talk to Xu Juncheng about business at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, I will come here at half past eight to pull you, anyway, I have nothing else to do, just follow you and my grandfather can rest assured, I won't worry about me going out to fool around again, secondly, that Xu Juncheng still trusts me more, and my words will work, and it is still a little beneficial to go together!" ”

Zhou Xuan was thinking about it, Li Wei no longer gave him a chance to refuse, waved his hand, and shouted: "Brother Xuan, I'm leaving, bye-"

When Zhou Xuan looked at him, he had already driven the car and ran far away.

Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, and then entered the house, but although he had a headache with Li Wei, he still liked this reckless guy very much, his identity was unusual, but his personality was very straight, he was not bullying, and he was sympathetic, for such a person, Zhou Xuan was still quite willing to make friends, just like Brother Hong, but Li Wei was far less scheming than Brother Hong.

Fu Ying and Jin Xiumei, little sister Zhou Ying, and sister-in-law Liu were all watching TV and chatting in the living room, after Zhou Xuan came in, Zhou Ying first said angrily: "Brother, I don't know what you do, you don't have to worry about the store, and there is nothing else, why don't you see people all day long?" ”

Zhou Xuan patted her head with a smile, then sat down next to Fu Ying and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

Several people immediately shook their heads, and Jin Xiumei said first: "The woman's family is chatting about something, what are you asking, son, have you eaten?" ”

"I've eaten it!"

Zhou Xuan replied casually, "I'm a little sleepy, I'll go upstairs to take a shower first, and I'll go to the stone factory tomorrow to talk about things, so I'll sleep first, and you can continue to talk!" ”

When Zhou Xuan went up the stairs, Jin Xiumei winked at Fu Ying and gently pushed her again.

Fu Ying's face flushed, but she still stood up silently and followed.

In Zhou Xuan's room, after Fu Ying followed up, Zhou Xuan was naturally embarrassed to close the door and undress, smiled, and asked, "Yingying, do you have something to tell me?" ”

Fu Ying hesitated a little shyly, opened her mouth but closed it again.

Zhou Xuan said "um" for a moment and said, "Yingying, I know you love me to death, come on!" As he spoke, he stretched out his face, pointed to the left and right cheeks, and said, "Come on, let you kiss each other!" ”

"Phew, stinky!" Fu Ying blushed and was annoyed, but then finally asked, "Have you seen Xiaoqing?" ”

It turns out that I am still jealous!

Zhou Xuan smiled and said: "I don't know where Xiaoqing is, I haven't seen it, have you seen it?" ”

Fu Ying immediately put her mind at ease, although Zhou Xuan likes to laugh with her now, he won't lie to her, and he has also called, Zhou Xuan also went to the store, listening to his tone is still very busy, I'm afraid that I don't have time to do anything else, and Zhou Xuan's feelings for her, Fu Ying also understands, there will be no second heart, and Xiaoqing's identity is also untouchable.

Zhou Xuan saw that Fu Ying's expression was relaxed, and said: "The face is not kissed, forget it, just talk about it!" ”

To be honest, Fu Ying still wanted to wait for Zhou Xuan to take the initiative shyly, but downstairs Zhou Ying seemed to shout: "Sister-in-law!" ”

Fu Ying suddenly ran out of the door like a frightened bird.

Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, such a shy daughter-in-law, annoyed her sister again, this girl, it's good to call when she is free, why call your sister-in-law at this time!

Annoyed, he still closed the door, took a shower and lay on the bed, practiced for a while, and then picked up the book to read, these are already the two things that Zhou Xuan must do every night before going to bed.

Needless to say, the benefits of practicing ice qi are inseparable, almost everything is inseparable from ice qi now, and it is almost easy to use it, as if it is just using your hands and feet as you like, if you don't use it, it is uncomfortable.

Reading books such as antique knowledge, it is still beneficial, at least now chatting and farting with some insiders, I can handle it, unlike before, people will know that he is a rookie when I say a word.

Because he had set a time with Xu Juncheng, Zhou Xuan got up quite early in the morning, and because he slept early at night and was in good spirits, Sister-in-law Liu had already prepared breakfast.

After breakfast, Zhou Xuan looked at the time, it was only ten past eight o'clock, Fu Ying took the fruit bowl, looked at him and said, "Shall I go for a walk with you today?" It's so boring at home for a long time! ”

Zhou Xuan looked at no one left and right, Zhou Ying and her mother were helping to clean up in the restaurant, reached out and pinched Fu Ying's face, and said with a smile: "Yingying, do you miss your husband?" ”

But it was so coincidental that the old lady Jin Xiumei happened to walk into the hall and said with a smile: "Don't flirt in front of your mother, if you want to come, come to the real one, hurry up and add a big fat grandson to our Zhou Xuan!" ”

Fu Ying ran out with a red face and covered her face, Zhou Xuan spread his hands and said, "Mom, look, it's not that you don't know that Ying Ying is shy, so run away!" ”

Jin Xiumei said nonchalantly: "What to run, if you get used to it, you won't have anything, women's families, they are all going to get married and have children, hurry up, talk more sweet words to your daughter-in-law, mom will find someone to watch the days these days!" ”

Zhou Xuan walked out with a smile, just do it, I want to do it myself, to be honest.

When he got to the door, he saw Li Wei leaning on his jeep and staring at Fu Ying blankly, and when he saw Zhou Xuan coming out, he asked, "Brother Xuan, what ......is this?"

"It's my daughter-in-law!" Zhou Xuan replied casually.

Li Wei slapped his thigh and suddenly realized: "No wonder, no wonder Brother Xuan, you don't have much cold to Mingyue, no wonder, there is a fairy hidden in the house!" ”
