The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Years are the killing knife. After a long period of more than 600 years, even the antiseptic spices are decayed and charred. Fortunately, the gold and silver will not rot. Otherwise, Zhang Nan will be given a "Treasure of King Solomon Medieval Edition". "It's really dumbfounding.

　　 This tacky cup full of local tyrants was sent up, and after removing a few large pieces of rotten wooden boards that were almost shattered at the touch of a touch, Zhang Nan took out the big, magnificent cross from the mud and wood residue!

　　 This is not the kind of small object hanging on the neck, it is almost the same on the shoulder.

　　 is big enough, heavy enough, luxurious enough!

　　 This is a flower bud-shaped cross, about half a meter in length and 35 cm in width.

The front of the cross is inlaid with hundreds of gems of various colors, and there are a few inlaid holes that are empty. Zhang Nan and the two guessed that these places are unlikely to be removed from the original inlaid gems. The reason for the vacancy should be the original inlay. The ones are pearls.

　　 There are many seawater pearls in the Middle Ages that have been preserved in a relatively dry environment, but after the castle was burned down, rain infiltrated the basement, and the pearls decomposed and disappeared.

　　 The back of this huge gold jewelry cross is a bas-relief of the crucifixion of Brother **** on the cross. The lines are clear and the carving craftsmanship is quite high.

After reading both sides, I found a feature: Brother **** appeared on the back of the cross instead of on the front. Based on this, Jerry Goodenkorn judged that this cross was owned by a secular king, at least not in a cathedral. of.

　　 "At that time, this type of cross had a religious practical purpose. When the kings went to the cathedral to celebrate mass, it would be lifted at the front of the line instead of the original object in the cathedral.

　　I have to take a moment to study these patterns on the front. The characteristic of this type of cross for kings is that the crucifixion of Brother **** does not appear on the front, but some symbols of the monarch. Put the crucifixion on the back..."

　　 I want to know who these treasures originally belonged to, and I can count on this cross for the time being-there may be a mark or secret record of a certain king on it, which requires careful research and verification.

　　 Jerry said that, a large cross weighing more than ten kilograms was directly handed to him by Zhang Nan: "Study slowly at that time."

　　 Zhang Nan is not interested in this at all.

Continue to clean up, and then quickly dug out a large rectangular "gold jewellery board"-brother Su in the middle, plus four squares separated by gem inlays, each of which is made of a gem inlaid "Gem Flower" with two golden embossed angel images.

　　 The four sides of the gold plate are more exaggerated, and the densely packed three-layer gem inlay composition makes people look a bit horrified!

"what?"

　　 Zhang Nan didn't know him.

　　 Jerry took a look at both the front and back, and then said: "This is the cover of the Medieval Holy-Scriptures. The book is rotten, and this is the only thing left."

"Oh."

　　 After saying a word, put it in the frame on the side, so be it.

　　 It’s no surprise that Jerry is so familiar with Zhang Nan's temper, and the owner of such an item is not interested in seeing it a few more times.

　　 I also found a few small pieces of gold inlaid with small gems. Perhaps they were part of a certain body ornament, but the main body such as leather or cloth has long been gone.

　　 All these small things are collected, and in the future, Jerry will be able to sort out what it was originally: If it is a leather belt, it may be particularly beautiful after restoration.

　　 The cleanup continued, and there were fewer and fewer things. Zhang Nan was not very interested. They were just vulgar things, until a very special golden plate appeared.

　　 is really a big plate, about 30 cm in diameter and weighing at least seven or eight kilograms.

The interior decoration of 　　 is divided into four layers from the inside to the outside. In the middle is a three-dimensional statue of a figure sitting, holding a wine glass, and wearing a western classical robe. As far as this statue exists, the height of the deep plate is about 12 cm.

　　 There is a circle around the figure, and there are 20 high-relief figures of ancient Greek mythology around the circle, and the outer circle is a circle of double flower branches, and the outer circle is decorated with a circle of small round gold beads.

　　 is really heavy. The plates are not made, but are cast as a whole and then refined. Jerry judged that it should be crafted in the 10th century.

There are a few traces of use on the 　　. Obviously it used to be an important thing to the owner, but it is not a decoration that will only be put on the shelf. It should have a certain practical function.

　　 is like that cross, there will always be a few times throughout the year being lifted to church.

　　 Now Zhang Nan feels more satisfied-the plate is good, and I can take it back as a display this time. It is rare to imitate ancient Greek art in the Middle Ages.

　　 Besides, such a strong golden plate is good for hitting people!

　　......

　　 Gradually, the silt in the basement was almost rectified, and finally a non-decayed box appeared in the corner.

　　 Gray and black, more than 20 cm wide, about twelve or three centimeters wide, and the height is the same as the width, it is silver.

　　 "Boss, there may be valuables in it, so be careful."

　　 Zhang Nan nodded and moved it slowly. It was a bit heavy, but not heavy, and the items inside were not particularly heavy.

　　 "Take it up and unpack it?"

　　 Hearing Zhang Nan’s question, Jerry Gooden Cowan hurriedly said: "This is the safest way."

　　 After removing the box, even if the basement is basically cleaned, there will be at most small gems that may be scattered.

There is no need for Zhang Nan to deal with the next thing~www.readwn.com~ There is no need to seal it with a boulder, just cover it with a large piece of plastic sheet: Jerry will not leave the castle construction site for the time being, and wait for him to be free. Take a good look at the time to see if there are any omissions.

　　 Then he held the silver box carefully and returned to the ground. The cleaning time was less than four hours.

　　High speed and high efficiency.

　　 I saw Guan Xingquan and a few people installing the ground penetrating radar not far away. The equipment was delivered in the afternoon. There is still some time before dark, so I just went to the first wave.

　　 Put the silver box in the sink and rinse off the silt on the top with water, then replace the waterproof storage and gloves.

　　 took a closer look. The box was opened with a hidden fan. It was taken into the work shed and placed on a table, and Jerry took out a set of small tools.

It was brought from the United States, but the previous boss used the craftsmanship that was said to be a tomb thief. As a result, the set of tools he prepared was useless: he was responsible for cleaning the oxidized and rusted hidden fan blade joints on the back of the silver box. And Zhang Nan was cutting a few bamboo chopsticks used by workers to eat.

　　 Looking at the situation, after a long period of gold coins, Charlize Theron will come to join in the fun again and ask: "What is this?"

　　 "Used to open the box."

　　 Opening the silver box with oxidized surface, Zhang Nan has experience, and he did it in 1986.

　　 The girl just waited, watching what Zhang Nan would do before, and wanting to know what's in the silver box-people, they are all curious.

　　 A vulgar object in the basement, I don't know what will be in this silver box, I wonder if I can surprise it.
