What appeared in front of Shao Xi and the others was a golden statue, as a human figure cast from gold, this statue was huge.

The statue is three or four meters high, and if you add the base pedestal at the bottom, it is not very impressive, but you must know that this statue is made of gold!

Shao Xi doesn't know if she is made of all gold, even if the inside is copper, only a layer of gold outside, I'm afraid that a portrait of this height will use a lot of gold, right?

This golden figure is a female figure, dressed in tulle, standing in the wind, with delicate curves of the body, showing the beauty of the female body to the fullest.

Although it is only a portrait, it can be seen that this woman has a beautiful face, beautiful and moving, and it is incomprehensible.

In his raised hand, he held a crystal clear bead, which was the size of an egg, and at first glance it looked like the "fairy tears" on Shao Xi's body.

Shao Xi climbed onto the pedestal and took the bead from the statue's hand, and after carefully looking at it in the light on the top of the cave, he was very sure that this thing was actually a glass bead, a naturally formed "Rupert's Tears".

Maybe it's nothing strange in the eyes of modern people, but if you think about it, how many coincidences it took to form such an egg-sized, crystal clear, and impurity-free "Rupert's Tears" in a natural environment in ancient times? What are the harsh conditions?

So it's no exaggeration to say it's a rare treasure.

Shao Xi looked up at the statue again, and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that the legendary desert goddess was such a beautiful woman, and I didn't expect that this 'Tears of the Desert Goddess' really existed, and it wasn't just a rumor. ”

Lao Wu glanced at the "Tears of the Desert Goddess" in Shao Xi's hand, and said with a little disappointment in his tone: "I thought there would be anything different, except that it was bigger than the one in your bag, and I didn't see anything special." ”

Shao Xi naturally couldn't explain to Lao Wu the value gap between the man-made and the naturally formed thing, objectively speaking, it was indeed the same thing, and it was not easy to explain more.

just smiled and replied: "It's a lot bigger, and it's still worth it." ”

After speaking, Shao Xi reached out and took a gold box from the side, put the "Tears of the Desert Goddess" into the box, and found a piece of cloth to wrap the gold box, and handed it to Lao Wu for him to keep properly.

Although this thing is just a naturally formed glass bead to himself, it is very important to the countries of the Western Regions.

Shao Xi is also thinking about how to use this thing to make some articles between Wuhai Kingdom and White Night Kingdom, although the idea is still immature, but it will be useful sooner or later to keep this thing by his side.

I walked to one of the iron boxes and opened them, only to see that they were filled with dazzling gems, red, yellow, blue, and green.

Shao Xi grabbed a handful, rubbed it twice in his hand, and threw it back into the box.

It is undeniable that these things are rare treasures on the outside, but in the face of such a huge treasure house at this time, these things seem a little insignificant.

Shao Xi sat on the iron box and began to worry.

Now that the treasure has been found, the "Tears of the Desert Goddess" has also been found, but if it is found, how to transport these treasures back to the Central Plains?

That's a lot of that! So big that how to get them away has become the biggest problem at hand.

If you rely on the current few people to bring back little by little, it is estimated that you will not be able to empty this treasure house in this life, but if you gather a large number of people to take treasure on a large scale, it will cause many problems.

First of all, there are many people, and large-scale treasure hunting will inevitably leak the news.

This treasure is not to say that it is the states of the Western Regions, even the Jingyuan Dynasty has coveted it for a long time, once the news leaks, I am afraid that the situation will get out of control, and it is a question whether these things can be transported back to the Central Plains.

Besides, if you suddenly have such a large fortune, you will inevitably become the target of all greedy people in this world.

So the first thing to do is to block the news and make sure that the secret does not get out.

Secondly, how can such a large amount of treasure be taken? If you take large-scale transportation, you can't avoid the leakage of information, but if it is small-scale transportation, like ants moving, it is too inefficient.

Moreover, the frequent entry of the transport team into the area of Jinwu Mountain will definitely arouse the suspicion of some people, especially the attention of the royal family of Wuhai Kingdom.

Although the old king of Madjid said that as long as he got the "Tears of the Desert Goddess", all the other treasures would belong to the treasure hunters, but human nature is greedy.

When he is faced with such a large fortune, who knows if what he said in the first place will count? Once he is really greedy, I am afraid that he will not get anything.

It is necessary to have both concealment and sufficient transportation scale, and at this time, the only thing Shao Xi can think of in his heart is Taihe Commercial Bank.

The caravans of Taihe Commercial Bank are all over the place, and Sun Lichang's one is to Wuhai Country, but in fact, there are many caravans of Taihe Commercial Bank that have trade contacts with various states in the Western Regions at the same time.

It is no surprise that a large number of caravans pass through Wuhai Country, but it is indeed possible to use caravans as a cover to sneak to Jinwu Mountain to collect treasure.

But the size of the caravan should not be too large, so as not to attract attention.

As for the credibility of the manpower, Shao Xi didn't expect those caravan people to be able to keep the secret here for him.

And a treasure of this magnitude will inevitably make those chaotic people greedy, and something unexpected may happen at that time.

The only ones who can have a certain size and maintain loyalty are the military.

But the question is, how to drive the army of the Jingyuan Empire into Wuhai?

This kind of thing is not a trivial matter, if the army of the Jingyuan Empire quietly sneaks into Wuhai Kingdom, once the matter is revealed, it will involve the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Originally, the relationship between the two countries was not harmonious before, and if the relationship was further tense because of this incident, it would be extremely unfavorable to both Wuhai Kingdom and Jingyuan Dynasty.

At present, this incident made Shao Xi feel a lot of scratching his head.

At this time, Lao Wu had already thought of the problem that Shao Xi was facing now, and he was also twisting the beard on his chin on the side, pondering the solution.

"Young Master, you must have thought of using the caravan of the Taihe Trading House as a cover for Yunbao, but you can't fully trust the caravan of the Taihe Trading House.

"And the only thing that can make you trust is the army of my Jingyuan Empire, but this town's western army guards the border fortress, if it breaks into other states in the Western Regions for no reason, it will inevitably cause war, and in this way, things will be made bigger.

"So the problem now is how to borrow the name of the caravan of the Taihe Commercial Bank, and not use the people of the Taihe Commercial Bank, but only the people we can trust."

Shao Xi turned his head to look at Lao Wu, nodded with a wry smile.

This old fellow was simply a roundworm in his belly, and he had just found such a large treasure, and he had so quickly calmed down from the great joy of obtaining it, and thought of the problem he was now facing.

It can be said that this old guy is the only one in the world who can really look at everything from his own position and perspective, and everything he thinks about is how to help him solve problems.

Shao Xi touched his chin and asked Lao Wu with a solemn expression, "Lao Wu, what do you think about this matter?" I'm struggling for a while, is there anything you can do to solve it? ”

Lao Wu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, raised his eyelids and glanced at Shao Xi, and asked a little tentatively, "Now I need you to give me a real truth."

"With such a big treasure in front of you, do you plan to keep it alone or do you have any other ideas? The ultimate ownership of this treasure determines how much power you can wield? ”

Shao Xi understood the meaning of Lao Wu's words, if he planned to possess this treasure alone, then he had to control the scope of this news as small as possible.

At the same time, the power that can be used is naturally much less, and in the end, it can only be transported back to the Central Plains in a very small range, with a very small scale ant moving like a little bit.

Moreover, after transporting these treasures back to the Central Plains, they also have to find another place to hide the treasures, so as to avoid being attacked by some people with bad intentions.

Although such a thin stream of water can ensure safety, it is necessary to worry about this matter every day, but if there is an omission, it must be remedied in time.

But if he planned to dedicate this treasure to the royal family of the Jingyuan Empire, then Xiao Changyi was the largest resource that Shao Xi could use, and many things could naturally be solved.

But in doing so, only a small part of this treasure may be owned by Shao Xi, and the vast majority will become the wealth of the Jingyuan Dynasty.

This is a question of trade-offs, does Shao Xi choose to occupy this treasure alone, or is he willing to seek this wealth for the Central Plains and the Jingyuan Dynasty?

This choice will determine what Shao Xi will do next, and it will also determine the difficulty of what he will do next.

Greed is the nature of the vast majority of people in this world, and it has nothing to do with right or wrong, but the instinctive possessiveness of people in the face of great benefits.

But greed must match one's own ability, and if you don't have enough ability to support your greed, you can't do it enough.

It is said that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, but in fact, it is said that there is a mismatch between ability and greed.

At this time, Shao Xi was reminded by Lao Wu, and finally figured it out, he didn't want to be the snake that swallowed the elephant, and if he couldn't eat it, he would choke himself to death if he swallowed it forcibly.

"Old Wu, do you think that even if we can really transport such a large fortune back to the Central Plains, can we eat it? Would the royal family of the Jingyuan Dynasty allow a rich man to exist?

"The old boy of the emperor is not afraid that I have wealth, but he will definitely be afraid that I have wealth in my hands that can subvert this empire.

"Instead of living in fear with such a large fortune, it is better to give this wealth and share it with peace of mind.

"And in my opinion, the real wealth is the connections and the power in your hands, if you don't have enough ability to protect the wealth in your hands, then it is better to simply convert this wealth into enough power.

"When the string is not thick enough, even if there is a big fish bite, there is no need to imagine that the fish can be caught, because then the greed may not even break the string."

Lao Wu listened to Shao Xi's words and nodded with great satisfaction, it seems that this young master of his family was not carried away by the huge wealth in front of him.

He understands that he should obtain as much benefit as he can, and that the part he can't eat can be used to borrow flowers and offer Buddha to seek another form of benefit for himself.

In all fairness, when he first saw this treasure house, Lao Wu's heart even had the greed to swallow it in one bite.

But after calming down, he knew very well that the two of them were still attached to the royal family of the Jingyuan Dynasty.

Whether it is for revenge or self-preservation, they can only tie themselves and Xiao Changyi tightly together, once they lose this reliance, they will not be able to catch it even in the face of the wealth of the sky.

Therefore, it is the wisest choice to calmly weigh the pros and cons and seek the benefits you deserve.

"If you think so, it's not that hard."

Saying that, Lao Wu raised his finger and pointed at Fu Biao, and continued: "This kid is still very reliable, you can arrange for him to return to Zhongyuan to do this."

"Let him secretly enter the palace to meet the saint, explain this matter to the saint, and the saint will arrange reliable manpower to cooperate with the caravan of Taihe Trading House to enter the Wuhai country in disguise and smuggle this treasure out.

"Of course, the benefits of Taihe Commercial Bank are also indispensable, and it is natural to give enough benefits when cooperating with businessmen, but this matter is secretly involved in the Holy Lord, and presumably Taihe Commercial Bank will not have any crooked thoughts.

"And your handing over this matter to him does not affect our continued journey to Loulan Kingdom, it is precisely the two things that can be done at the same time."

Shao Xi pointed to the Nabihai in the distance and asked Lao Wu, "What about him?" ”

Of course, Lao Wu knows what Shao Xi is worried about, no matter how reliable a person seems on the surface, you don't know what he is thinking in his heart.

With such a large treasure at the moment, Nabihai is indeed an uncertain factor.

"From this moment on, this lad cannot escape our grasp until this treasure is completely gone.

"The best way is to arrange him by Fu Biao's side, even if Fu Biao returns to the Central Plains, let him follow him.

"If it's reliable, give him enough benefits, if you have other ideas, let Fu Biao kill him."

Shao Xi nodded silently, he must admit that this young man Nabihai is honest and honest, and he is indeed a trustworthy person.

But after all, the time of friendship is still short, and he doesn't fully understand his character, and there is no room for any error in such a big treasure, if he has a crooked mind, Shao Xi is not opposed to letting him disappear completely.

But this is only the worst-case scenario, Shao Xi doesn't want such a thing to happen.

Thinking of this, Shao Xi called Fu Biao and Nabihai to him, and asked Nabihai, "Nabihai, are you willing to continue to help me?"

"I promise you that when all this treasure has been removed, I will give you a chest of gold.

"It's just that before that, you have to stay with him, and you have to be by his side wherever he goes, are you willing?"

As he spoke, Shao Xi pointed to Fu Biao beside Nabihai.

A flash of fear flashed in Nabihai's eyes, and for the first time he smelled danger from the employer he considered the best.
