Chapter 318: Paintings, calligraphy, jewelry, gold and silver...



These paintings and calligraphy are almost all works of famous calligraphers and painters of the Ming Dynasty. Many of them are only recorded, and some have never appeared in any records. But these paintings are all authentic, whether it is the paintings themselves or the collection seals on them, they are enough to prove their identity.

This box of calligraphy and paintings alone contains forty-eight pieces. If we take them back, it will definitely shock the whole of China.

This box of calligraphy and paintings shocked Yang Jing. In comparison, the thirteen famous paintings he got from the US warehouse auction a few days ago were far inferior. Apart from other things, if Tang Bohu's "Lushan Cangsong" was auctioned, the price would probably be half the value of the thirteen famous paintings...

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

Taking out a cigarette from the space, Yang Jing lit it with a little trembling, took a deep breath, and suppressed his inner excitement.

Yang Jing felt that if he didn't calm down now, he might have a heart attack from the things in front of him.

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

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

The box contained no calligraphy or paintings, nor other antiques, but a box full of gold ingots...

The golden ingots emit dazzling light under the illumination of the miner's lamp, and this kind of light is what is most touching.

This box is almost half smaller than the previous one, which means it is about half a cubic meter. In addition, it contains gold ingots, so the actual volume should be less than half a cubic meter. Yang Jing estimated that this box of gold ingots should weigh about six tons. Based on the calculation that one ton of gold is 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 the box of calligraphy and paintings, but the visual effect of this thing far exceeds anything else. Most people in this world may not understand those calligraphy and paintings, but I guess 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 box containing the gold ingots, but there was no gold or paintings in these boxes, but only some large silver ingots. There were ten wooden boxes containing silver ingots in total, and with this box containing gold, there were eleven boxes missing.

There were a total of 24 boxes here, and almost half of them were gone in a flash. However, this also made Yang Jing full of expectations for the remaining boxes.

Yang Jing opened two more boxes, which turned out to be filled with jewels. Among them, Yang Jing also saw two phoenix crowns, one was of the specifications of a "twelve dragons and nine phoenixes crown", and the other was of the specifications of a "nine dragons and nine phoenixes crown". It was obvious at a glance that they were the phoenix crowns worn by the queen.

Four phoenix crowns were unearthed in Dingling Tomb among the Thirteen Tombs in Yanjing. The highest-specification one was the "Twelve Dragons and Nine Phoenixes Crown", which was worn by Empress Xiaojing, the empress of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty.

The two phoenix crowns in front of us are obviously the ones that only the queen can wear. I just don’t know whether they belong to Zhu Youlang’s wife, Queen Wang, or to someone else.

In addition to the two phoenix crowns, there are many pearls and gems in the two boxes, but the pearls have lost their luster because they are too old. As the saying goes, "When people grow old, the pearls turn yellow", this is what it means. Even if natural pearls are well maintained, they can only be preserved for 50 to 60 years at most. After this period, the pearls are doomed...

It’s a pity that these precious big pearls are all wasted.

However, the gems in the two boxes made Yang Jing excited again. There were many rubies, sapphires, jadeite, Hetian jade, and Dushan jade in the two boxes, and they were all top-grade.

Nonsense, how could the things the emperor uses be bad?

And when Yang Jing opened another box, he found it was full of these gems.

The value of the various gems in these three boxes alone far exceeds that of the box of gold.

At this time, a problem that troubled Yang Jing also came up. After putting the three large boxes into the space, Yang Jing actually found that the space was not enough. This was the result of not putting the eleven boxes of gold and silver in. After only four boxes were put in the space, there was already no room...

Yang Jing looked at the glass-type jadeite in the space. About half of these jadeite, or about one hundred pieces, had not yet absorbed the natural treasure energy. Adding 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 time I upgraded the "Restricted Time and Space Travel". There is no time limit anymore. Now that I have so many gems and jadeite on hand, why not upgrade?

Yang Jing did what he said, and he returned directly to the new house in the original time and space. Upgrading skills, like opening skills, needs to be done in the original time and space.

PS: I would like to thank '冰冷八度' for the reward of 100.
