Chapter 577: The Box Is a Treasure (Third Watch, Around Half Past Six)
Seeing that the big boxes were all taken out one after another, what super big things in Ju'an's imagination still didn't appear, buckets of silverware, and small pieces of gold jewelry or something like that.
Ju An was very disappointed, but Miles Wang Fan and his gang were happy, and kept looking around, and Nini was even more happy to take pictures. Le's face was about to burst into laughter. Xiao Zheng and Xiao Chi were pulled by Dinah and Cora, and they still leaned their heads to look into the cellar, and it seemed that the two little people were more interested in the hole of the black hole than silverware.
Just as Juan was disappointed, things took a turn for the worse, and the young man in the cellar shouted: "At last there is a small box, which contains some strange gold coins, with pirate emblems on them, and a book, with only a dozen pages of parchment, in Spanish."
Ju An suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, could it be that buddy found that style of gold coin in Pirates of the Caribbean here? This is enough of a gimmick, and he hurriedly shouted below: "Take it up and take a look".
After waiting for less than two minutes, a young man walked up with a small box, the whole small box looks to be made of iron, and there are patterns on it, one person is very difficult to hold, it seems to be coated with a layer of black things, a few fixed straps are coated with grease like the big box, and put it on the ground, Ju An couldn't wait to put his head over, and waited to open the box to see, the gold coin is good, but it is a bright gold surface, and the embossed carving of the pirate mark is on it, A dagger and a scimitar are crossed under a skull, and there is not even a trace of the cumbersome patterns in the movie. There were about fifty or sixty gold coins in the chest. There's also that old-fashioned gold-handled dagger in there. All that's left is the pamphlet on a dozen parchments, with a decent cover binding, and two iron pins.
Krees picked it up, then flipped the page and read it in Spanish: "The rules of the Princess Feynman, all the crew members of the ship can vote on everything, all members are equal, and no gambling is allowed. It is not allowed to steal, and those who steal will be thrown into the sea ......". After reading for a while, I turned to the next page, which was about how to distribute the loot of the robbery. Now it's clear that these things were stolen by the pirates.
After reading it, Krees said to Juan: "Now it is certain that these are pirate treasures, but this Princess Feynman really hasn't heard of it, and this book looks a little older than Morgan's pirate code, it seems that this pirate captain is a Spaniard, at least it is a Spaniard who wrote this code."
Where does Ju An care about this, he felt disappointed again when he saw the gold coin. The gold coins are not beautiful enough. After thinking for a moment, he said to Krees, "This pirate really mints gold coins like in the movies!" ”。
Krees shook his head with a smile and flipped through the book to Juan and explained, "These gold coins are not for use, they are equivalent to votes. When something important is written, gold coins are sent to each pirate, and everyone votes on them! ”。
Where is Ju An interested in how these pirates are engaged in democratic elections, he stretched out his head and looked down, and asked loudly: "Is there anything else?" ”。
"No," the next man replied immediately.
Miles leaned over to Ju An's side, looked at the gold coins in the box and said, "Isn't that enough, so many things, at least one or two million can be worth one or two million." After speaking, he reached out and picked up a pirate gold coin in the box, and looked at it carefully.
Wang Fan also followed, picked up the small dagger in the box, and said to Ju An: "It looks like this dagger is quite fine, I said that these pirates are really poor enough, so they robbed some of these things, I look at how they just ran to people's houses to grab plates, you look at the tableware of a water, it seems that in the future, when your children get married, each child will send a set, and it can be sent to six or seven generations." After speaking, he jokingly patted Ju An's shoulder: "This saves a lot of money."
Ju An glared at Wang Fan, took the dagger from Wang Fan's hand, and then put it in the box: "No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, it is better than you have nothing."
Luther looked at Wang Fan and said, "Although other things are not worth much, it is more meaningful to have daggers and gold coins in this rule." Then he turned to Ju An and said, "If you are willing to sell, I want to buy this gold coin, what do you think of 20,000 US dollars?" ”。
$20,000? Beautiful you! Dude is not short of this money, and Frank is also going to build an exhibition hall to attract tourists, you 20,000 and 20,000 of the gold coins are gone, and the buddy is left with one in the exhibition hall, how stumbling, it is better to put a lot of them together, the visual effect is good, thinking of this, he shook his head at Luther and just wanted to refuse.
Frank, who was standing next to the old man, said: "I'm sorry for this, we are going to build an exhibition hall in the future, and everything that comes out this time will be exhibits in the exhibition hall in the future!" ”。
"That's right," Luther nodded regretfully when he heard Frank's words: "It's good to put it on display together!" ”。
Frank continued to say to Luther and Kreese, "So when will these things regain their original luster". After speaking, he pointed to the buckets of gold and silver at his feet.
Kreese glanced at the plastic buckets around him: "It will take about three or four days." After speaking, he discussed with Luther: "We can choose a few good things to clean up tonight, and you can go to the yard to have a look."
Frank listened to the words of the two old men, then nodded and looked at Ju An. Ju'an only stayed here for three days, and he didn't have anything to do, so he couldn't let the three dolls squat here without going to school, so that tomorrow he could take a look at some representative, or ornate, gold and silverware that could be put away. Nodding: "That's good!" We'll take a look tomorrow, and you'll talk to Frank about the rest."
It wasn't interesting to stay for the rest of the year, so Ju'an and the group continued to return to the small courtyard and began to think about what to eat at night.
In the afternoon of the next day, Ju An took Wang Fan and Miles to continue to open the gold and silver wares that had been cleaned up, and the crew had already gone to the airport with their luggage, waiting for Ju An to finish reading the pirate treasures and preparing to go home.
The distance was not far away, and the place where these things were placed was in another small courtyard four or five hundred meters away, and when Ju An led the three families into the courtyard, he saw thirty or forty shiny gold and silver utensils on a platform in the courtyard.
This time it is estimated that the most essence is made, the whole table is white and shiny and yellow, and the porcelain that Ju An saw is also in it, only to find out that this thing is actually a set, a milky white porcelain wrapped with silver patterns, with two cups of the same style, and a lot of silver trays at the bottom, the most conspicuous is of course golden yellow, and the heart of the person who sees it is so refreshing, a pure gold cross the size of half a palm and the middle and four sharp corners are inlaid with gems of different colors, The daggers with gold handles were also put up, and of course, all the gold coins, piled together shiny, almost brightened Ju'an's kryptonite eyes.
Nini continued to do her homework with the camera, while Ju An picked up one, looked at it carefully, put it down again, and continued to grab the second one.
Dinah looked at the set of cups carefully, and Cora watched Dinah staring at a set of tea sets, and said with a smile: "If you like it, take it back and keep it for yourself!" ”。
Dinah shook her head and said, "It looks good, and I don't know how much blood was stained on it when these pirates robbed it, just take it home."
Frank listened to Dinah's words and breathed a sigh of relief, if all the good things were moved back home by the proprietress of the proprietress, his own exhibition hall would simply not be opened.
Juan held a gold coin in his palm, put it on his thumb, bounced it, and then caught it with his hand, and just played with it while asking Frank, "How much do you think these things are worth?" ”。
Frank said to Juan: "The rest of the things are about two million dollars in total, and they are about the same price when sold as antiques, and the pirate code and these gold coins and daggers are not easy to value, because they have a certain meaning, Krees said, if you meet someone who really likes and has money, this book may be worth 400,000 dollars, if it is the most expensive, it still depends on the box."
"Boxes?" Ju An listened to Frank's words, and walked towards the end of the table, the last box he picked up yesterday has completely changed its appearance, the whole body is shiny, and the four sides of the fixed box like a belt can be illuminated, the west side of the box is engraved with a cumbersome European pattern, and the position of the keyhole in the middle is actually a skeleton's mouth, Ju An touched it and looked at it carefully: "This is all silver?" I didn't notice it at the time." After speaking, he patted the box, this carver takes a lot of effort, but it should be valuable.
Frank laughs and explains, "This one isn't silver, it's platinum, and the whole chest is made of platinum."
"Holy!" Ju An unconsciously came out of his mouth two sentences of Chinese, and then touched the box with both hands: "At that time, there was platinum?" ”。
Frank explains: "Actually, there have been platinum jewelry for a long time, and the Spanish came to Central America and discovered platinum, but at that time they were called inferior silver, and they were generally thrown away when they found it, or used it as silver. But the fact that these pirates actually made a box out of this to store books and dagger gold coins was unexpected, and Krees and Luther were surprised when they cleaned it up."
When I heard about the platinum box, Dinah and the women, as well as Wang Fan and Miles, put their heads together, and the whole box was made of platinum. Wang Fan looked at the box and said to Miles next to him: "This is shit luck!" ”。
Hearing that it was platinum, Ju An's expression of satisfaction was happy at once, and this time he finally had a big harvest. Dude's luck is still so good. (To be continued.) )
