"That won't do. Let's talk about it after we've eaten and drunk enough! Who told you to insult me like that just now?" Old Xiao was not going to stand for it. Anyway, the alloy code box was handcuffed to his hands. If he didn't unlock it, no one else would be able to see it.
At this time, Dean Shan's wife came in with a tray. On the tray were 40,000 steaming bowls of egg noodles, a large plate of golden fried steamed bread slices, and two plates of side dishes.
The three of them hurriedly took over. Liu smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Director Li."
"Well, why are you still being so polite when you are at my house? Our old man Dan was distracted after answering the phone just now. I am also worried about him. I also want to see what kind of treasure you four value so much."
Dean Shan's wife is the director of a department in the ministry, and she is also very knowledgeable about cultural relics, so she naturally wants to see what the treasure is that the four of Mr. Liu value so much.
Old Xiao untied the alloy password box, and Dean Shan took it over. The weight made him grit his teeth, "My goodness, this box is really heavy."
Old Liu and the other three were also very hungry, so they didn't say anything polite. They sat down and ate heartily. After a short while, the old men were patting their stomachs and humming with pleasure.
"Old Xiao, hurry up and take out the key. Let me see what treasure it is that you four value so much." Dean Shan had already become impatient.
Mr. Xiao laughed and looked at the other three people, and then the other three people took the keys off their necks one by one.
Such a solemn insurance method made Dean Shan stunned for a moment, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.
"This is definitely an incredible treasure. Could it be of the same level as the 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival'? If it really is of that level, then the four of them can be forgiven for being absent from the general staff meeting today without reason." Countless thoughts flashed through Dean Shan's mind in an instant.
The box was slowly opened under the watchful eyes of Dean Shan and Director Li. The next moment, Dean Shan almost jumped up, and Director Li covered his mouth with both hands, but the low "ah" still rang out uncontrollably.
"Old Liu, this, this, this could be..." Dean Shan was a little stuttering. The jade seal in front of him really gave him such a huge shock. He had thought about it a lot, but he never expected that he would actually see this legendary jade seal of the country.
As for Director Li, he could no longer stand and sat down on the sofa.
Elder Liu nodded, and at the same time, he took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket and handed them to Dean Shan. "Dean, this jade seal was found by our apprentice, and according to the results of our appraisal this afternoon, it is now almost 100% certain that this jade seal is the imperial seal that has been missing for a thousand years. Because our apprentice not only found this jade seal, but also found relevant supporting evidence, which is very strong evidence. It’s just that the place where he found the jade seal still needs to be confirmed. Once that place is confirmed, the authenticity of this imperial seal can be determined 100%!"
Dean Shan's expression became solemn. He took the gloves and put them on, then carefully picked up the imperial seal.
Director Li beside him also came over, and the couple carefully looked at the imperial seal under the light, with fascinated looks in their eyes.
After a long while, Director Li finally said, "Old Dan, my intuition tells me that this jade seal is the real imperial seal, the one that Li Si was ordered to make. Because I can't feel the heavy sense of history in other jade seals. The most important thing is that this jade seal makes me feel like worshipping it inexplicably."
Dean Shan also nodded slightly. What his wife said was exactly what he felt at the moment. So at this moment, even if he didn't study it to his heart's content, he already believed it 90% deep in his heart!
As the head of the Palace Museum, he has seen countless national treasures, but none of them could give him such a feeling. This feeling only appears on this jade seal. What does this indicate?
That goes without saying...
