Chapter 318 Calligraphy, Jewelry, Gold and Silver...

These large wooden boxes have copper nose locks, and large copper locks are hung on them. However, these nose locks and copper locks are covered with green copper rust. Yang Jing just exerted a little force, and the nose lock buckle was directly disconnected.

These wooden boxes have been stored here for at least 400 years. It would be strange if these exposed nose locks are broken if they are stainless. In this environment, these metal products are not as resistant to decay as gloomy wood.

Yang Jing opened the lid of the box, but found that the box was made of gloomy wood nearly an inch thick, which was about three centimeters thick. The weight of this box alone was estimated to be three to four hundred kilograms. The gloomy wood of the golden nanmu is very heavy and sinks when it enters the water.

This box is worthy of being made of golden nanmu gloomy wood. The inside is the same as outside, without any decay. In the original time and space, the price of golden nanmu gloomy wood plummeted a lot, but this kind of wood is really rare. Even if such good boards are brought back, they are unique to create furniture. The value is definitely greater than those mahogany furniture.

After the box was opened, what caught Yang Jing's eyes was a layer of light yellow tung oil paper. The tung oil paper was tied with hemp ropes on the outside, but the hemp ropes had long been broken. However, the oil paper was pretty good, so there was no rotting phenomenon.

After gently uncovering the layer of oil paper, Yang Jing found that there was a layer of tung oil paper underneath. After uncovering three layers of tung oil paper, a layer of bright yellow silk was exposed. This bright yellow color also shocked Yang Jing. In the feudal society in China, this color can only be used by the royal family. Obviously, the things in these wooden boxes are definitely from the royal family, otherwise no one except those rebels would dare to use this color of silk.

Perhaps because of the protection of the three layers of tung oil paper outside, the bright yellow silk did not rot anything, which made Yang Jing secretly happy. If all these silks could be preserved, the things inside would naturally be preserved intact.

There is only one layer of silk. After gently uncovering it, the items inside are completely exposed.

There are scrolls of paintings in them. Yang Jing picked up a pair of paintings and opened them carefully. After seeing the inscription, Yang Jing felt a stir in his heart.

This is actually the "Orange Picture" by Xu Wei and Xu Wenchang, one of the three talented men of the Ming Dynasty. Yang Jing has only seen and mentioned this painting in a certain historical record, but he has never heard of it being passed down.

Now, this painting actually appeared in front of me. How can Yang Jing not be excited? This is Xu Wei's painting, and its value is hard to estimate!

This painting is well preserved. Not only does it contain Xu Wei’s own inscriptions, but it also has many appreciation and collection seals. You can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary product.

Yang Jing suppressed his excitement, gently put the painting away, and threw it into the space. In this case, it is best not to be exposed to the air for a long time. What kind of reaction will be caused by these precious paintings when they are left for so long?

Although it seemed that there was no bad change just now, Yang Jing did not dare to take this risk. Putting the painting into space directly is the safest way.

Then he grabbed a scroll and opened it gently, but it was still the work of Xu Wei and Xu Wenchang. However, this is not a painting, but a character, which is written by Su Dongpo's famous "Red Cliff Fu".

This calligraphy is written in cursive script. The whole article is elegant and generous, like a flying dragon in the sky, or antelope hanging its horns. Even people like Yang Jing who don’t know much about cursive script feel extremely comfortable after reading it.

Xu Wei, what everyone is best at is running script?

A painting or a character made Yang Jing feel excited, not to mention that there are more scrolls in this box.

With these two works alone, Yang Jing knew that the box was filled with priceless calligraphy and paintings. He didn't bother to observe carefully and put all the scrolls into the storage space.

After putting all these scrolls into the storage space, Yang Jing felt much more at ease. He sat on the wooden box and then began to pick up the scrolls outwards, rolling them out.

When Yang Jing opened a scroll, his heart trembled involuntarily.

"This character is actually Xie Jin's "River and River Song", or is it cursive..."

"God, this calligraphy is also written in the small regular script of Grand Secretary Xie Jin, "Song Ren Ci" by Song Ren Ci. Just knowing that Grand Secretary Xie has a monument "Song Ren Poems" left, I never thought that this talented Grand Secretary even wrote the lyrics of Song Ren Ci. This is really amazing, amazing!"

"Hey, this is Tang Bohu's "Lushan Pines Picture". The size of this painting seems to be larger than the "Lushan Waterfall Picture" which cost $590 million. If you take it back, tsk..."

"This ink trace is also from Tang Bohu. Let me take a look. God, it is the poem "Sighing the World" written by Tang Bohu himself. I wrote the poem by himself. This ink trace is also a priceless treasure!"

"This painting is Dong Qichang's landscape painting..."

"This painting is Wen Zhengming's "Ao Mei Tu"..."

"It's Wen Zhengming's ink mark..."

"This is an ink trace from Yang Shen's "Sheng'an Long Short Sentences"..."

"Oh, is this Dong Qichang's "Travel in Yanshan"?"

"Is this Ni Zan's "Ink Bamboo Picture"?"

......

Every time Yang Jing took out a scroll from the space, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he got used to it.

Almost all of these paintings and ink marks are the works of famous calligraphers and painters of the Ming Dynasty. Many of them are only recorded in records, and some have never even been recorded. But these paintings are undoubtedly authentic. Whether it is the calligraphy and painting itself or the collected seals on the calligraphy and paintings, they are enough to prove the identity of these calligraphy and paintings.

There are 48 calligraphy and paintings in this box alone. If you take them back, you will definitely shock the whole of China.

This box of calligraphy and paintings directly shocked Yang Jing. In contrast, the thirteen famous paintings he obtained from the American warehouse auction some day ago were far behind. Not to mention anything else, if it were Tang Bohu's "Lushan Pine Map", if it were to be taken, the price would probably be half the value of the thirteen famous paintings...

This is just a collection in a box, and there are still a total of one, two, three... and twenty-three boxes. Although some boxes are much smaller in the period, there are still ten boxes that are much larger than this box...

A cigarette was taken out of the space, and Yang Jing lit it with a little trembling, took a deep breath, and suppressed the excitement in his heart.

Yang Jing felt that if he was uneasy now, he might have to be stimulated by the things in front of him to get a heart attack.

After smoking a cigarette, Yang Jin calmed down a lot. He stood up and walked towards the other end.

He pulled off the nose lock buckle and lifted the lid of the box. The things inside stimulated Yang Jing again.

This box is not a calligraphy or painting, nor is it other antiques, but a box of gold ingots full of...

Huang Cancan's golden ingots emit dazzling light under the mine lamp, and this light is the most touching thing.

This box is about half a smaller than the box just now, which means it is about half a cubic cube. In addition, this is gold ingot, and the actual volume should be smaller than half a cubic cube. Yang Jing estimated that this box of gold ingots should be about six tons. According to the calculation of one ton of gold ingots of about 35 million US dollars, this box of gold is worth about 210 million US dollars.

This box of gold is definitely not as valuable as that box of calligraphy and paintings, but this thing is far more visual than anything. Most people in this world may not understand those calligraphy and paintings, but probably no one does not understand these gold! Even a fool would probably like this thing!

Yang Jing opened several boxes that were about the same size as the ones that contained gold ingots, but there were no more gold or calligraphy in these boxes, but they were all large silver ingots. There were ten wooden boxes containing silver ingots. Add this box containing gold, and eleven boxes were missing in one go.

There are a total of twenty-four boxes here, which is almost half missing at once. However, this also makes Yang Jing full of expectations for the remaining boxes.

Yang Jing opened two more boxes, and the two boxes were filled with jewelry. Among them, Yang Jing also saw two phoenix crowns, one with the specifications of the "Twelve Dragons and Nine Phoenix Crowns", and the other with the "Nine Dragons and Nine Phoenix Crowns". You can tell at a glance that it was the phoenix crown worn by the queen.

Four phoenix crowns were unearthed in Dingling in Yanjing's Thirteen Tombs. The highest-standard phoenix crown is the "Twelve Dragons and Nine Phoenix Crowns", which is the phoenix crown worn by the Empress Xiaojing, the Emperor Shenzong of Ming Dynasty.

The two phoenix crowns in front of me are obviously also phoenix crowns that the queen can only wear. I just don’t know if it is from Zhu Youlang’s daughter-in-law, Queen Wang, or someone else’s.

In addition to these two phoenix crowns, there are many pearls and gems in these two boxes, but those pearls have lost their luster because they are too old. As the saying goes, "A man's old pearls are yellow", this is what it means. Even if natural pearls are well maintained, they will have a shelf life of fifty or sixty years at most. After this period, the pearls will be finished...

It’s just a pity that these precious pearls are all scrapped.

However, the gems in these two boxes made Yang Jing excited for a while. There are many rubies, sapphires, jadeites, Hetian jades, and Dushan jades in these two boxes, and all of them are top-notch.

Nonsense, can the emperor use something bad?

And after Yang Jing opened another box, it was full of these gems.

The various gems in these three boxes alone are worth far more than that box of gold.

At this time, a problem that made Yang Jing bothered. After putting these three large boxes into the space, Yang Jing found that there was not enough space. This was the result of the eleven boxes containing gold and silver not being put in. After only four boxes were placed in the space, there was no place...

Yang Jing looked at the glass-type jade in the space. About half of these jades were not absorbed by a hundred pieces of natural treasures. In addition to these three boxes of gems, Yang Jing gritted his teeth and decided to upgrade the storage space.

Anyway, it has been more than a month since the last upgrade of the "restricted-level time and space shuttle" and there are no restrictions on time. Now there are so many gems and jades on hand, why not upgrade?

Do it as soon as you say, Yang Jing directly returned to the new house of the original time and space. Skill upgrades are the same as opening skills, and they all need to be carried out in the original time and space.
