When Yang Jing was investigating precious metal mines in Papua New Guinea, he discovered a Japanese shipwreck from World War II, the Daiichi Shinko Maru, on the seabed near Manus Island in the Bismarck Sea. In that shipwreck, Yang Jing not only found five tons of gold, but also some letters from senior Japanese officers hidden in whale oil barrels, and even found some clues to a secret underwater base built by the Japanese during World War II.
As a result, Yang Jing led Chris and the others to find the secret base in the Maugue Islands, but unfortunately, all the wealth looted by the Japanese from Southeast Asian countries stored in the base had been transported away.
In desperation, Yang Jing had to use the time-space shuttle function and traveled to the time and space of January 16, 1979, and seized more than 200 tons of gold, platinum and black gold in that secret military base. Of course, the biggest gain in that base was not those precious metals, but four legendary Peking Man skull fossils!
The mystery of the missing Peking Man skull fossils has puzzled the world for more than 70 years. No one probably would have thought that the four skull fossils were actually forgotten by the Japanese in this secret base.
Although Yang Jing was very excited about finding these four Peking Man skull fossils, he also knew that if nothing unexpected happened, he might not be able to keep these four skull fossils...
However, Yang Jing did not have too many thoughts on this. It is actually most appropriate to leave this kind of national treasure to the country for protection. Thinking too much will only bring trouble to oneself.
Next to these four skulls are densely packed purple clay teapots.
These purple clay teapots were purchased in large quantities by Yang Jing in the summer of 1982 at Gu Nan Old Street in Shushan, Yixing.
When Yang Jing traveled through time, he met Master Zhu Kexin, one of the "Seven Elders of Zisha", and spent three thousand yuan to buy ten sets of Zisha teapots from Master Zhu, one of which was a set of five Cloud Dragon teapots and another was a set of ten Squirrel Grape teapots.
At the same time, with the introduction of Master Zhu, Yang Jing also bought seven single pots made by Master Pei Shimin, who had passed away at the time, at the price of 300 yuan each.
He also spent three thousand yuan to buy ten sets of purple clay teapots from Master Gu Jingzhou's home, including six single pots and four complete sets of purple clay teapots.
Among these four sets of purple clay teapots, the one with the largest number of pieces is a set of eleven pieces, with five cups and five trays.
A set of Yunjian Ruyi three-headed teapot, one pot and two cups.
A set of high waistline handle five-handled teapot, one pot, two cups and two trays.
A set of Rain and Dew Star handle nine-head teapot, one pot, four cups and four trays.
The six single pots are a Cime pot, a diamond-shaped pot, a flat-bellied pot, an antique Ruyi pot, a melon-li pot and a very rare ink-clay Junyu pot.
It’s a pity that because Master Gu was out for a meeting at the time, Yang Jing didn’t get to see this leading figure in the purple clay world in person, which was a real pity.
However, because other purple clay artists on the street knew that Yang Jing collected purple clay teapots from several masters, they all brought their carefully crafted purple clay teapots to sell. As a result, Yang Jing purchased more than 200 pieces (sets) of purple clay teapots at a price of 100 yuan per piece or a set, which was a huge harvest.
Now those teapots are all displayed here, enough to support the museum's purple clay teapot hall.

Later, in 1988, Yang Jing bought a manor on Grand Island near Niagara Falls, which was built by Alfred, one of the three brothers who revived the DuPont family. In the basement of a annex building of the manor, Yang Jing found a set of National Geographic magazines from 1890 to 1942. Yang Jing then commissioned old Mike to buy National Geographic magazines from 1888 and 1889, as well as National Geographic magazines from 1943 to 1988 on the market. This is the complete collection of this famous magazine from its first issue to 1988, a century of magazines.
When I have the chance, I will collect all the National Geographic magazines after 1988, and then I will have a complete set of National Geographic magazines!
At the same time, Yang Jing also found two extremely rare and valuable double eagle coins in a piggy bank in the basement. These two double eagle coins, together with the European gold coins found in the pirate treasure and the fifty rare ancient Chinese coins that he had collected before, were enough to support the museum's coin hall.
In this basement, Yang Jing also found two notebooks left behind by Alfred, and from these two notebooks he deciphered the exact coordinates of the eight "royal treasure sites" of the Japanese devils in the Philippines.
So last summer, Yang Jing took Gege and 14 bodyguards to the Philippines. Although they suffered a series of natural disasters such as undersea earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and super typhoons during the treasure hunt, the final harvest was also huge.
At the second treasure location, Yang Jing and his team found two tons of gold; at the fourth location on Catanduanes Island, they found two boxes of gems; and in the third underground floor of the St. Williams Metropolitan Cathedral in Laoag, Yang Jing seized a large number of treasures.
There are more than 20 pure gold Buddha statues from the Angkor Dynasty with exquisite workmanship and various shapes!
A copy of the imperial edict issued by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, to the Angkor Dynasty!
Twenty-one complete sets of handwritten Buddhist scriptures bestowed by the Ming Dynasty on the Angkor Dynasty!
A pair of Yuan blue and white porcelain jars with figures, the Yuan blue and white Xiao He chasing Han Xin under the moon and the Yuan blue and white Li Guang drawing his bow at night!
