Zhang Long has experienced all the hardships of life, gaining nothing but injuries and illnesses. He felt that his greatest contribution to society was not becoming a criminal.
From childhood...
Palmprint recognition and iris recognition? This is too exaggerated. You only see this kind of thing in movies.
But that wasn't all. Zhang Long took out his phone, typed in a string of identification codes, and the metal door creaked open.
Of course, if only Zhang Long or Hu Xinxin come alone, it will be much simpler; we can just identify their palm prints.
Isn't it because there are a lot of people that they want to show off?
Once the metal door was opened, the floor was revealed to be very spacious!
Except for the necessary load-bearing walls, all other walls were knocked down.
The surrounding walls are covered with patterns representing various dynasties, and portraits of emperors from each dynasty are displayed on them.
Below them hung small plastic boxes with identification codes, containing the currencies issued during the reigns of these emperors.
There are two of each type of coin, one facing forward and one facing backward, hanging on the wall, which is very interesting.
Even Principal Wang couldn't help but exclaim "Wow!" This is practically a textbook example!
Lin Gengxin simply exclaimed, "Wow!"
Early currencies were actually not worth much. The Wuzhu coins issued during the Han Dynasty were used for hundreds of years, and the number issued was terrifying. The more coins issued, the more that survived.
For coin collectors, the rarer the coin, the more valuable it is; ideally, it should be a unique piece!
Just like the coins minted during Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han dynasty, as well as during the peasant uprisings led by Li Zicheng and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
(The money provided by the system does not include coins that are defined as national cultural relics, such as the "Reward for Merit by the King of the West").
During the Beiyang period of the Republic of China, commemorative coins were minted by mints in various regions for the warlords.
The group spent over half an hour there, listening to Zhang Long's eloquent explanation of the currencies, and they were filled with admiration!
This person has such a wealth of knowledge that they could practically teach a class.
It's difficult enough for them to just read this, let alone memorize it!
Then look at Zhang Long; he can just blurt it out without even thinking.
When the group finally arrived at the Republican era, they saw all sorts of strange and unusual silver coins. Their previous impression of silver coins was that of Yuan Shikai silver dollars, but seeing the diverse collection of silver coins collected by Zhang Long completely overturned their understanding.
I was especially surprised to see the suggested retail price listed below.
The combined value of these silver dollars is probably close to several hundred million!
Zhang Long then noticed the small boxes piled up in the corner, and he smiled as he took out a few and handed them to the group.
"This is the rarest currency I've ever received; it was privately minted."
"It's not available on the market at all!"
"It was a coin produced by the Shanghai Mint by Lu Yongxiang, the former military governor of Zhejiang, in order to curry favor with his superior."
The group stared at the silver dollars in their hands, and the more they looked, the more suspicious they became.
Suddenly, Chen Chichi felt that the silver dollar was not quite right, because he had just bought two from Zhang Long.
He took it out and weighed it in his hand, then exclaimed, "Brother Long, is this made of gold?!"
Unexpectedly, Zhang Long nodded: "That's right, I bought all these silver dollars at the price of gold. I had them tested afterwards, and they were all gold. I guess they were made by melting down small yellow croakers."
Zhang Long glanced at the time and continued, "It's already noon. I'll ask Auntie to cook a few more dishes. You can just eat whatever you like at home."
These people were all opportunistic and immediately agreed.
In their eyes, Zhang Long was already a super collector, and the kind who was particularly low-key and unassuming.
Finally, they saw the currency issued after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and that basically ended their currency tour.
At the end, the certificate hanging on Zhang Long's wall was issued by the National Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee.
If this certificate were used in a future online appraisal event, it would probably be enough to play the entire poem "Spring Snow" on TV.
After leaving the vault, the group took the elevator to the 39th floor.
Hu Xinxin had already told the cook to prepare food for four more people. As soon as the elevator doors opened, Da Li and Xiao Li turned their heads to look.
They had initially wanted to run over and greet Zhang Long, but stopped in their tracks when those unfamiliar two-legged creatures appeared behind them.
Chen Chichi is really shameless. He called Hu Xinxin "sister-in-law" right off the bat, perfectly embodying the phrase "shameless and shameless."
He is actually 5 years older than Zhang Long and 9 years older than Hu Xinxin, but he calls her "brother" and "sister-in-law" so smoothly and without any awkwardness.
It already has that Zeng Xiaoxian vibe from Love Apartment!
Zhang Long wasn't stingy either. He quickly took out the cigarettes and tea he'd taken from his father-in-law from the storage room and warmly entertained the group.
Of these people, apart from Lin Gengxin, the others had all seen a lot in life, so they didn't show any particular surprise.
After all, it was previously introduced that Hu Xinxin was the eldest daughter of the Hu family in Beijing. With such a status, even the two CEOs of their company would have to give her some face!
The group was chatting leisurely on the sofa when Principal Wang noticed several computers in Zhang Long's gaming room and instantly became addicted to the internet.
He quickly invited Zhang Long over to play games, knowing that Zhang Long was once the top player in the national server!
Later, as he played less, his score naturally dropped.
There are three computers in the room. Two are used by Zhang Long for his live streams, and the other is for Hu Xinxin.
After turning on his computer, Zhang Long logged into Ionia and checked his LP. He was still in the Challenger tier, but his LP had dropped to 937.
Looking at Chen Chichi's Diamond II rank and Principal Wang's Master rank, how should they be ranked?
Although Principal Wang originally wanted to ride on Zhang Long's coattails to climb the ranks, Chen Chichi, that shameless guy, came over, so they could only play matchmaking!
Since that's the case, the group simply switched to matchmaking. Playing in a five-player team isn't very interesting, so they might as well go to a matchmaking game and stomp on some newbies to have some fun!
Zhang Long confidently chose his signature hero, Blind Monk, put on the Dragon Blind skin, and played incredibly aggressively in the game!
His various eye-poking and spinning kicks, as well as his tower-diving skills, left Lin Gengxin and Huang Xiaoming, who were standing behind him, speechless with astonishment.
Isn't this the kind of skill only professional gamers who sit in front of their computers all day can pull off?
Zhang Long made these amazing plays in several games in a row, which reminded Lin Gengxin of a rumor about the previous report incident.
Zhang Long said with a smile, "Some things are better left unsaid; it loses its charm if you just say them out loud!"
"I'll give you a look; figure it out yourself!"
It was past three in the afternoon, and the group had sobered up quite a bit, so they all got up to say goodbye.
The noisy house suddenly quieted down, and Zhang Long began to feel restless, wondering if he should take Hu Xinxin abroad for a trip.
By the way, I also managed to secure the durian supply I'd been eyeing.
