Chapter 1035: The Goal of Effort
In fact, if the construction is expedited, the repair of the courtyard should be completed in only one month, but Chu Chen is not in a hurry to move here, so he asked the construction party to work slowly.
When it was time for acceptance, the renovated courtyard house really made Chu Chen feel quite satisfied, and because of the long construction time, the toxic gases inside the room were almost dispersed in this process (the original materials were good), and now if you find an auspicious day of the zodiac, you can move in directly.
However, the courtyard is so big, it is definitely not enough for Zuo Shan and Hu Yong to be in charge of security. So, Chu Chen asked the two of them to help find a few more reliable people to come over, and if there was no suitable candidate, let their uncle help.
The things on the side of the courtyard are not in a hurry, and now the most important things in front of Chu Chen are two things, one is the opening of the museum, as the renovation is gradually coming to an end, there will be more work in this regard.
In addition, although the museum is managed by Senior Brother and Du Yile, Chu Chen, as the owner of the museum, must be familiar with the business aspects. So recently, he has started to learn this kind of work, fortunately, he has the ability to never forget, and it is not difficult to learn, but in addition, the details of the work still keep him busy.
In addition to the affairs of the museum, another thing is the treatment of her cousin Qiang Meijuan.
Since Chu Chen broke through to the innate realm, he already had confidence in curing Qiang Meijuan, but in terms of medical matters, it is definitely not enough to memorize written knowledge, and if muscle atrophy can be cured so easily, it will not be a worldwide incurable disease.
Therefore. Before proceeding with treatment, Chu Chen needs to deepen his understanding of this aspect. Fortunately, Qiang Meijuan's condition did not deteriorate. Coupled with Chu Chen's improvement of the prescription to a certain extent, it is unlikely that Qiang Meijuan's physical condition will have problems for a while.
Speaking of medicine, we have to mention Chu Chen's studies, some time ago, he went to school to take the final exam, and the result was of course excellent.
But considering that he definitely didn't have time to go to class, and now that he felt that he couldn't settle down to sit in the classroom, Chu Chen decided to simply find a time to finish the cultural class.
In this regard, Liu Lao and the person in charge of the school agreed. In Chu Chen's case, it is better to cut through the mess quickly, so as not to have a bad impact.
In addition to these two things, there is another thing that Chu Chen needs to spend a lot of energy to deal with, and this matter has to start with the treasure left by Zhang Huoni.
That day, after Chu Chen opened the trap box, he found that in addition to the heirloom jade seal, there were also three thread-bound books, which introduced the family history of the Zhang Huoni family. In addition, there are various clues investigated by the ancestors of the Zhang family for nearly a thousand years.
These clues are about national treasures, such as the Xuanyuan Sword, the first of the top ten famous swords, and the national treasures such as Jiuding cast by Dayu that have long been lost. Some more clues. It is about the treasures of folklore, such as the treasure of the Shang king, the treasure of Qin Shi Huang. Treasures of the Yuan Dynasty and much more.
Some of these clues seem to be very profound. Some are wild histories, and some are simply deified legends. Anyway, according to the information left by Zhang Huoni, since his grandfather's generation, he was the only one who found the suspected treasure of Wang Mang according to the clues.
When Chu Chen saw this, he was quite shocked in his heart, this qiē was all because the wealth represented by Wang Mang's treasure was really amazing.
At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang came to power, implemented currency reform, and nationalized gold. It is illegal for the private sector to possess gold. During the Western Han Dynasty, the use of gold was very common and the amount was huge, such as Wang Mang hired a princess as a gift of 30,000 gold; The emperor rewarded tens of thousands of gold.
When Wang Mang was killed, there were still 300,000 pieces of gold, and the whereabouts of this batch of gold were unknown with Wang Mang's killing. You may think that 300,000 is not much, but its unit is scarce, not two.
Literally, in ancient times, a kui should be a basket, and a kilogram of gold was more than enough. In this way, there are 300 million grams of gold in 300,000 yuan, and even if the price of gold in 2002 was 100 yuan a gram, there would be 30 billion.
This is still less to say, who knows how much gold there was at that time, even if the quality of the gold was not pure, the value of 300,000 pieces of gold would be at least 10 billion, which shows what an amazing wealth this is, even if Zhang Huoni only got one percent, he was also very rich.
However, in the following text, Zhang Huoni said that he did not get much money, and he did not mention the specific amount, but only said that it was enough for him to live a worry-free life to study antique porcelain.
In addition, Zhang Huoni also said that the experience was quite strange and extremely dangerous, and he was the only one who survived the few companions who hunted for treasure with him at the beginning. In addition, he also got a crystal bead that looked like a mist spinning inside the bead, and it also had some magical functions.
However, what exactly is the function, Zhang Huoni did not mention in the text, he said that when he returned home on the first full moon day, the bead suddenly disappeared, he searched for a long time, but did not find where this thing went, which made him feel very regretful.
When he saw this, Chu Chen suddenly realized that this crystal bead would run into the Tang Sancai imitation of Zhang Huoclay, and in the end, he was affected by this and obtained incredible abilities.
Of course, whether this is the case or not, Chu Chen doesn't know, anyway, because of this matter, Zhang Huoni began to re-study the clues of Wang Mang's treasure, not to mention, he really found a few useful pieces of information based on many materials, as well as clues that he had successfully found the treasure before.
And he deduced from some precious historical materials that among the treasures left by Wang Mang, in addition to a large amount of gold, there are also rare treasures, as well as some very precious prescriptions, some of which can treat all kinds of diseases, it is said that even the heavenly eunuch can be cured, and there are also prescriptions that can make people immortal.
Everyone knows that many of the ancient emperors were very yearning for immortal Taoism, and Wang Mang was also one of them.
Speaking of which, Wang Mang's attitude towards Fangshu is as different as he is. In the early stages of his serious, humble corporal, he was sanctimonious and seemed to have no interest in "strange powers". After the monopoly of power, the obsession with talismans, ghosts and gods gradually became apparent, and finally it was out of control.
In terms of sacrifice, it was originally an important system in ancient times, and Wang Mang attached great importance to it, both in terms of quantity and scale, far beyond his predecessors. So much so that later, there were more than 1,000 kinds of ghosts, ghosts, gods and gods sacrificed, and more than 3,000 kinds of sacrifices were needed.
At that time, with the situation of war and chaos and people's livelihood, so many sacrifices could not be gathered at all, so they could only make some copycat versions of pseudo-sacrifices to make up the number, such as using chickens as geese, dogs as elk, etc., and made a lot of ridiculous jokes.
Such painstaking efforts naturally have their considerations. Although it was formally carried out with the new Han dynasty as "chan rang", Wang Mang certainly understood that his ascension to the throne was in fact unjustifiable and a typical usurpation.
Therefore, no matter whether he really believes in the existence of immortals in his heart or not, he hopes to use this golden signboard to convince the people, and even paralyze himself. In order to increase his credibility, Wang Mang also set up relatives with the immortals, such as claiming that the fairy prince Qiao was his imperial uncle, and later, he simply recognized himself as a descendant of the Yellow Emperor in the edict.
This society has always been good at the top, and the bottom must be effective, since Wang Mang has this hobby, many "supernatural" monks soon gathered around him. Under the bewitchment of these alchemists, Wang Mang also did many ridiculous things.
For example, if you listen to the words of Fang Shi Su Le, you spend a lot of money to build the so-called Eight Wind Terrace, and make all kinds of liquid soup on it along different wind directions.
For example, in order to imitate the technique of the Yellow Emperor, five colors of crops are planted in the main hall according to the direction, and these crops are placed in different directions according to different colors, which are called Wulianghe. What's even more bizarre is that the seeds of the crops are soaked in the juice of more than 20 kinds of precious things such as crane marrow, hawksbill turtle and rhinoceros in advance.
All this is not absurd, but it is undeniable that there must be something in it that has some effect, otherwise how could it be possible to deceive the trust of a character like Wang Mang.
Therefore, the authenticity of the prescriptions that Zhang Huoni said is still in doubt, but how likely this is that Chu Chen has to put a big question mark in his heart, after all, in terms of the function of the prescription, it is too incredible.
Chu Chen believed that Zhang Huoni also had his own thoughts, but Zhang Huoni said in the text that he would do his best to find Wang Mang's treasure.
The reason why he said this, Chu Chen felt that on the one hand, it might be that Zhang Huoni wanted to cure himself too much, and on the other hand, the information that gave Zhang Huoni relevant information may be very credible and authoritative, making him think that the possibility of the prescription really existing.
It's a pity that he didn't leave the information that Zhang Huoni had read at that time, otherwise Chu Chen would have known what the reason was.
In the end, Zhang Huoni should not have found that treasure, or that there were no prescriptions in the treasure, of course, it was possible that even if there was a prescription, it would not have that effect, but the latter two possibilities were not great, otherwise, Chu Chen would not have found the treasure left by Zhang Huoni.
But no matter what, since Zhang Huoni left relevant clues, Chu Chen still wanted to try his best to find them, what he cared about the most was also those prescriptions, he didn't expect to be immortal, he only hoped that the prescriptions could regulate the bodies of his relatives and lovers, so that they could live a long life.
Of course, even if he doesn't have this treasure, Chu Chen has been working hard in this area now, just like he thought before, although he knows that birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, but he still doesn't want his parents and lover to leave him early. (To be continued......)
