"Boss, in the morning, the total amount of money we bid for reached 187,600 dollars!"

Jason excitedly reported to Zhu Yu.

"There could be more in the afternoon." Zhu Yu was not surprised, he followed the whole process.

Of the seven containers, three made money, two basically paid off, and two lost some money.

However, the eyes of the treasure hunters were very hot, because when they saw these seven containers, most of the people who took pictures made money!

In the past, the auction in the yard could only make one-fifth or one-sixth of the money, but now? More than half of them made money!

This yard can come!

Although most of the treasure hunters did not capture the container, in their opinion, they just lacked some courage and ability this time!

If you were more impulsive and decisive at that time, and shouted higher when you raised the price, then you would be the one who made the money!

It's like a gambler, always looking at the moment when he might win, and always bragging to others about the few times he has won.

As for losing?

It's just bad luck!

Therefore, what Zhu Yu could think of, the container auction in the afternoon would be even more lively.

Therefore, Zhu Yu did not go back at noon, but went to their house with Jason.

Zhu Yu has never come here to eat since he lived in the villa.

Therefore, when Freya saw Zhu Yu, she was very happy.

At noon, it was rice stir-fry, and roasted beef with potatoes seemed to be Freya's specialty.

Zhu Yu was hungry, so he ate two bowls in a row, and he was still unsatisfied.

Then rush to the freight yard with Jason.

Zhu Yu would think that there were more people in the afternoon than in the morning.

It's just that he didn't expect that there would be more than half of the treasure hunters who came than in the morning!

Black crows, at least forty or fifty people!

Zhu Yu has never seen so many people at the time of container auction in any freight yard!

Seven containers in the afternoon were not as valuable as in the morning.

However, to Zhu Yu's surprise, the container with the highest price in the afternoon was called 47,000 US dollars!

In the end, seven containers were auctioned for $211,300!

Of the seven containers, only two made money, and the other five all lost money.

Especially the one with the highest offer, who lost at least $30,000!

However, the treasure hunters' momentum has not been lost at all!

There were even treasure hunters who came over and asked Zhu Yu, when will the next one start?

Zhu Yu replied that it was three days later.

The treasure hunters were all muttering, a little long.

Zhu Yu was speechless.

I'm in a hurry to send myself money!

$400,000 on this day!

It's hardly much!

That's a lot of money!

Much faster than bidding on containers or something!

Think about how long it took him to save up $400,000 in the beginning?

At least a week, right?

What now?

One day!

No wonder some people say that it is more difficult to earn 10,000 yuan with the capital of one dollar than to earn 1 million yuan with the capital of 10,000 yuan!

Although it is a lot, for Zhu Yu's current debt, this is a trickle of water, and it will not help for the time being.

After the treasure hunters left, the people who took pictures of the containers also pulled their things away, and the garbage was cleaned up, Zhu Yu went to the three containers left by him.

Here, there is something that he didn't understand before, but should be able to figure out now.

Jason wanted to follow, Zhu Yu waved his hand and said:

"No need."

I can do it myself.

He grabbed the hydraulic pliers and walked over to one of the containers.

I got the news from the yard owner that the container was sent from Huaxia.

Because the consignor is unknown, the consignee did not leave a specific address and contact information, only one name.

It has been more than three months since no one has collected it, so it was sold.

Zhu Yutong opened the container, and what caught his eye was several large cardboard boxes, which were relatively bulky books and boxed small electrical appliances, and further inside, several large suitcases were put together.

The books in the cardboard box, some of which are solitary, swept by the eye of the sky, are available from decades ago and hundreds of years ago, and it is no problem to say that they are cultural relics.

Inside the suitcase, there are small objects wrapped in styrofoam - these small objects are at least a hundred years ago!

There are porcelain, such as pen washes, pen holders, small cups; There are bronze utensils, such as incense burners, Buddha statues, candlesticks; There are silverware, such as ingots and longevity locks; There are also gold utensils, such as hairpins, small ingots, and large spending money; There are also jade objects, such as ruyi, jade pendants, small jade bowls, and so on.

There are almost hundreds of pieces, depending on the year, from more than 100 years ago to 1,000 years ago.

At the back of the container, there is a safe wrapped in coarse cloth.

Zhu Yu walked over and took a closer look, dispelling the idea of asking a locksmith to come over and look at the safe.

This old-fashioned safe has the original order of passwords pasted on the inside.

Zhu Yu tried to turn three, reverse five, and then turn six.

The door opened.

Two drawers on the upper level. When opened, there were gold bars and a wad of dollars.

These things alone are worth more than a million.

The lower layer is a cloth bag, and inside is a nanmu box, and when the box is opened, wrapped in brocade, is a mat.

Ordinary people may wonder, how can someone put a mattress in this?

Zhu Yutian has already seen that this mat is an antique and has a history of at least three hundred years.

What's more, this mat is ivory!

The day before yesterday, after Zhu Yu saw this thing through the eye of the sky, he went back and searched for it.

The results of the search scared him!

If there are more than a dozen Tang knives in the world, there are only three ivory mats in the world.

The history of the ivory mat is very long, and there is a record of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "giving Mrs. Li with ivory" in the "Xijing Miscellaneous Records", and the ivory mat is the ivory mat.

The mat woven with ivory silk has a fine and uniform texture, the mat surface is flat and smooth, soft and comfortable, and can be rolled freely, and it is cooler and more pleasant than the straw mat and bamboo mat when laying the mat in summer, which is an important tribute at that time.

In the era when the custom of sitting on the ground was popular, it was normal for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to give precious ivory mats to his beloved concubines.

"Wei Shu Han Wu Biography": "Han Wu except the history of Zhizhou thorns, and offer the ivory mat of the Qibao bed." "Gezhi Jingyuan" recorded: "Che Yong is the history of Guangzhou Thorn, and his servants make those who work more ivory, and the natives suffer from it." It shows that ivory mats have been made from time to time since the Han Dynasty.

At present, the three surviving ivory mats were made in the Yongzheng and Qianlong periods of the Qing Dynasty (1723-1735), and were the tributes of local officials in Guangdong to the imperial court, and the specific production methods have long been lost. According to the old technician, this kind of product can only be made in the south, because the climate in the north is relatively dry, and the ivory is easy to break when cracked into pieces, let alone woven into mats.

In addition to this, it is likely that a special potion was concocted to soak ivory in order to soften it before it was cracked into thin sheets and braided. In short, the process is quite complicated and the cost is very expensive, so Emperor Yongzheng, who has always regarded himself as frugal, once ordered not to do it again.

Zhu Yu opened the Nanmu box and took out the mat to look at it carefully.

The ivory mat, more than two meters long and more than one meter wide, is woven from many flakes of ivory less than half a centimeter wide. The weave is in the shape of a "human", and three laces are woven around the mat with ivory pieces dyed black, just like the information found on the Internet.

Explanation, this is one of the five ivory mattresses that were originally paid to the palace!

Just how could it be here?
