What's the meaning?
Su Ningshuang was somewhat confused.
Did Ye Chen prepare some kind of surprise for me?
Or is it a gift?
Su Ningshuang couldn't help but start having wild thoughts.
"Come with me."
After saying that, Ye Chen led the way.
Before long, Ye Chen led Su Ningshuang to a rockery in the garden.
What are you doing here?
Su Ningshuang asked, utterly puzzled.
Last night, the girls visited Baiyuan Garden for the first time, and ended up getting lost in the intricate rockery complex.
This artificial mountain complex is full of winding paths, like a maze, which is quite a headache.
Has Ye Chen finally figured out this artificial mountain complex completely?
Su Ningshuang had her own guesses.
"Come with me, you'll be absolutely surprised."
Ye Chen said mysteriously.
"Um."
Su Ningshuang nodded; she had complete faith in Ye Chen.
Finally, Ye Chen led Su Ning Shuang through the artificial hills. After a while, Ye Chen turned onto a small path and entered a dead end.
At the end of the dead end, there is a dark cave beneath a large artificial mountain.
"Look what this is!"
Ye Chen turned on his phone's flashlight, illuminating a corner of the cave.
"Huh?"
Su Ningshuang was stunned for a moment.
Why is there a door inside the cave?
"What's going on?"
Su Ningshuang was confused and asked Ye Chen with a surprised look.
Ye Chen didn't say anything, but took out a very old-fashioned-looking key from his pocket.
The next second, to Su Ningshuang's surprise, Ye Chen opened the door.
Pushing open the door, you'll find a staircase leading downstairs.
"Come with me."
Ye Chen said something and took the lead in walking down the stairs. A minute later, he arrived at the end of the stairs.
There was another door here, and Ye Chen took out a second key and opened it to go inside.
After entering, Ye Chen turned on the lights inside.
"Wow!!!"
Following Ye Chen inside, as the lights came on and she saw the scene inside, Su Ningshuang covered her mouth.
There was a hidden world inside.
"This...this...this is a secret room?!"
Su Ningshuang exclaimed in surprise.
"Actually, it's pretty much the same. I think it's more like an underground private museum or a private collection room."
Ye Chen spoke.
Ye Chen was genuinely surprised when he discovered this place.
Actually, after obtaining the White Garden from the game store, in addition to the White Garden key and various documents, there were also two very special keys.
These two keys are clearly different from the key to the main gate of Baiyuan.
At that time, Ye Chen was very curious about what the two keys were for.
Since the game didn't explain it, Ye Chen couldn't figure it out either, so he put the matter aside.
Just now, while "exploring" Bai Garden, Ye Chen inadvertently walked into a dead end and discovered this secret room.
Upon seeing the tightly closed door to the secret room, Ye Chen suddenly remembered the two keys.
Ye Chen noted down the route and returned to his room to find the key.
After that, Ye Chen discovered this huge secret room.
In fact, it is quite normal for many old houses and gardens to have secret rooms.
To escape war, or to hide treasures, etc.
This secret room in Baiyuan contains dozens of precious antiques of various sizes.
It's practically a small private museum.
Ye Chen was unsure whether the secret room was built by the former owner of Baiyuan or the owner of the previous owner.
These antiques are very likely the most precious antiques in Baiyuan Garden, and this secret room was built to store them for security reasons.
Baiyuan Garden is said to have a history of one or two hundred years, and it was originally built by a wealthy family.
Of course, this is just Ye Chen's guess; there are other possibilities.
Regardless, Ye Chen has already bought Bai Garden and everything within it, as clearly stated in the contract.
These antiques naturally belonged to Ye Chen as well.
Initially, Ye Chen didn't know much about antiques, but he had a lot of contact with wealthy people and big shots.
Many of these people enjoy collecting antiques.
Gradually, Ye Chen also gained some understanding of antiques.
If those wealthy people or even collectors saw Ye Chen's secret room, they would be absolutely astonished and green with envy.
Many of the antiques here are things that others might never see in their entire lives; they are all priceless treasures.
Ye Chen recognized several of the dozens of antiques treasured in the secret room.
One of them is a Northern Song Dynasty Ru kiln celadon-glazed tea bowl.
Ye Chen had seen something similar at a wealthy man's house back then.
The item in the wealthy man's possession is said to have cost tens of millions of dollars and was purchased at an auction.
The item in the secret room now is similar to that one, and is probably worth tens of millions as well.
The other shareholders Ye Chen knew were worth between several million and tens of millions of yuan.
This is only a part of the entire secret room.
If these dozens of antiques are added together, their value is at least several billion, or even more.
This is a wonderful surprise!
It's possible that the value of this antique in the secret room is even higher than that of the White Garden.
Ye Chen bought Bai Garden and also acquired these antiques; it was practically a buy-one-get-one-free deal—he made a huge profit!
You should know that antiques can appreciate in value.
As the saying goes, gold is valued in times of chaos, while antiques are valued in times of prosperity.
These precious antiques will increase in value over time.
"These are so beautiful."
