After Uncle Huang's processing, the cigarette box finally revealed its true face.

The front of the golden box, which had been obscured by the chewing gum, had been completely cleaned, and there were many small gems hidden under the chewing gum that had dried and hardened.

Gu Ming and Uncle Huang counted that the front of the cigarette box was inlaid with a total of 80 gems, including 59 diamonds, 8 rubies, 7 sapphires, and 6 green emeralds.

Not only that, but an oval sapphire is also set on the button on the side of the cigarette case. It's just that the gem on the side button doesn't know what's going on, and it's also covered with chewing gum, so that Gu Ming didn't notice it when he checked it in his hand before.

The stones are arranged in an orderly manner, with white and transparent diamonds arranged together to form a pattern similar to that of a leaf, while colored gemstones are seemingly randomly distributed on the carved branches, which look like colored flowers from a distance.

After the back of the cigarette case was cleaned out, it was exactly the same as what Uncle Huang said, with the British royal coat of arms on the back.

After the whole cigarette box was cleaned out, it didn't look like there was much wear and tear, and it was relatively well preserved, with few scratches.

Uncle Huang endured his excitement to wipe the water stains on the cigarette box, and then took out another set of gadgets and began to repair the link between the lid and the body of the box.

"Look at what a beautiful cigarette case!" Uncle Huang's movements were very fast, and it didn't take long to repair the cigarette case.

"It's really beautiful, I didn't even expect it to have so many gems on it." Gu Ming gently stroked the body of the box with her left hand, and when she stroked the gem part, there was immediately a clearer heat than before, and the clatter sound when lighting the cigarette became a little louder.

"I guess this cigarette case was made around 1896. You can see the coat of arms on the back, the middle circle is written in Old French with 'y', which means 'may those with malicious intentions be dishonored', and the frieze below has the motto of the King of England written in French, which means 'There is the Emperor of Heaven, and I have the right'. Uncle Huang looked at the coat of arms on the back of the cigarette box with emotion, shook his head and said: "I don't think the chewing gum on this box was accidentally obtained, you see that it covers all the key places, most of them are deliberately done by someone, but I don't know who it is." Why? ”

"I just wanted to use the bonus I just gave out to buy a gift for my grandfather and mother, but I didn't expect to buy a big gift as soon as I bought it." Gu Ming happily stroked the cigarette case, and couldn't wait to immediately take the gem-inlaid cigarette case back to show her grandfather.

"Maybe it's because you have this filial piety that God will favor you." Uncle Huang had calmed down the previous excitement and said to Gu Ming with a calm face.

Gu Ming then remembered. When he was on the stall at that time, it seemed that Uncle Huang had also discovered this cigarette box, but Gu Ming moved a little faster. Uncle Huang took the cigarette case in his hand first.

Just looking at Uncle Huang's appearance, he didn't seem to care too much.

Gu Ming thought about it, and finally decided to avoid this topic, so as not to embarrass the two of them.

After all, this cigarette case has already been bought by her. It shows that Uncle Huang has no fate to pass by this cigarette box, although Uncle Huang helped her clean up the chewing gum on the cigarette box. also helped her repair the cigarette case, and finally gave her an explanation of the cigarette case, but this could not let her directly transfer the cigarette box to Uncle Huang, unless there was any deep friendship between the two of them.

It's a pity that the two of them met for the first time today, and by accident they had an intersection because of this cigarette box.

"I wonder how much such a cigarette case is worth?" Gu Ming brought the topic to the value of cigarette packs.

"A conservative estimate is at least two or three hundred thousand, and if it is put up for auction, the price will definitely be higher, I haven't seen such a beautiful cigarette case for a long time. The general silver cigarette cases outside have a certain collection value, but most of them are not as good as the one in your hand in terms of material, style and the cultural factors behind it. Uncle Huang said carefully, and there was no trace of greed in his eyes.

It started with Uncle Huang speaking. Gu Ming kept paying attention to the other party's expression.

You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people. I don't know how many people in this world do things because of money, if she knew that there were so many gems hidden under the cigarette case covered by chewing gum. She probably wouldn't agree to follow Uncle Huang here.

Fortunately, Uncle Huang is a person of integrity, and there is only appreciation in his eyes when he looks at the cigarette box. There is no greed or jealousy.

It seems that her luck is not bad, Gu Ming muttered secretly in her heart.

Knock Knock Knock ......

Just as Gu Ming and Uncle Huang were talking, there was a sudden sound of someone knocking at the door.

The knock on the door is not urgent, the speed is moderate, and it feels very orderly.

It's just that this didn't reassure Uncle Huang, his expression was whole, and he immediately stretched out his hand to signal Gu Ming not to make a sound, and turned off the lights in the room.

Gu Ming thought of the people who were chasing Uncle Huang in the flower and bird market, and her heart couldn't help but tighten, so she quickly put the cigarette case in her bag first, and stood quietly to the side, watching Uncle Huang quietly move in the direction of the door.

"Master Huang, is Master Huang here?" As soon as Uncle Huang approached the door, before he could look out of the cat's eye, he heard someone shouting outside.

Huang Lao Bo paused for a moment, did not respond, and looked closer to the cat's eye, then moved to the side again, leaned over and looked again.

Gu Ming looked at Uncle Huang's strange behavior, and wondered in her heart, could it be that there is more than one cat's eye on this door?

"Master Huang, I have something I want to ask you for help with, my mother's name was Zhu Li before she got married? White. The people outside heard that there was still no movement in the house and continued.

Hear Julie? With the name White, Uncle Huang stopped looking at the door, and after a short silence, he spoke: "Cookie Julie? ”

"It's not Cookie Julie, it's Chocolate Donut Julie." The man outside replied.

"What's your name?" Uncle Huang continued to ask.

"I'm Robert? Smith, already married Julie? White's son. The people outside paused. Then he said: "I have a letter from my mother to Master Huang, if Master Huang doesn't mind, I wonder if you can let me talk about it in detail?" ”

Uncle Huang hesitated for a moment, and finally let out a long sigh, opened the door, and let the person standing outside walk in.

Gu Ming had been paying attention to the movement at the door, and when he saw Uncle Huang open the door, four foreigners who looked very tall immediately walked in from outside the door.

The foreigner at the front was a typical blonde and blue-eyed man, who looked about 30 years old, and exuded a sense of seriousness and restraint. Behind the blonde foreign men were three men in black suits who resembled bodyguards.

Seeing such a posture, Gu Ming couldn't help but secretly smack his tongue, and while his mind was quickly guessing the origin of the other party, his thoughts unconsciously drifted to the other party's fluent Chinese.

If she hadn't seen the other party's appearance with her own eyes, she would have thought that the other party was just a Chinese compatriot who liked to take foreign names.

"Thank you, Master Huang." Robert nodded politely at Uncle Huang. Sensing that there were other people in the room, he quickly glanced at Gu Ming with his blue eyes.

Gu Ming only felt that she was swept by a layer of cold ice, and suddenly a feeling of not being very comfortable appeared on her body.

Uncle Huang gave Gu Ming a reassuring look. casually patted the sofa in the living room with his hand and said to Robert, "Sit." ”

Robert looked at the sofa that had just been photographed by Uncle Huang, frowned slightly, and then sat down as he said, and then took out an old yellowed letter from his arms and handed it to Uncle Huang.

Uncle Huang took the letter and glanced at Robert. He quickly opened the envelope, took out the letter written in black ink and read it.

Gu Ming didn't mean to get close to Uncle Huang and those foreigners. She could clearly feel that the three bodyguards who were following Robert had been paying some attention to her as soon as they entered the door, as if she was some kind of terrorist and needed to be careful.

"Is the 'Queen of Roses' broken?" Uncle Huang looked at Robert with a surprised face after reading the letter.

Robert nodded slightly: "Yes." ”

"How could you be so careless, that kind of thing should be kept properly, why did you end up asking me to help? I don't believe that no one is qualified for this job, and I think your mother should know very well that I have said before that I will never do such a thing in my life, so you might as well find someone else. Uncle Huang waved his hand at Robert, indicating that he was unwilling to help.

"We've already looked with other people before coming to Master Huang. None of them have the means to fix the 'Queen of Roses' without a complete guarantee that no damage will be done. Robert said slowly.

"If others can't do it, I can't do it even more, I'm just a bad old man waiting to die." Uncle Huang sighed a little tiredly.

"Master Huang doesn't have to be humble. My mother believes you can do it. Robert raised his head slightly, and his green eyes looked directly at Uncle Huang: "My mother said it." There is no one in this world who can fix the 'Queen of Roses' perfectly except you. ”

"It's just your mother's wishful thinking, I ......"

Bang!

Suddenly, Robert leaned over and rolled on the ground, and a glass in front of him exploded as if something had hit him, scattering shards of glass everywhere, and a bodyguard standing behind Robert fell from behind to the couch without warning.
