Chapter 133 Great Harvest (Part 3)
Lu Xiaoxiao came to the first room where paper materials were piled up. She saw many ancient thread-bound books thrown everywhere, and she felt so distressed that she burst into tears. So she hurriedly began to collect the intact books and calligraphy and paintings into the space.
As Lu Xiaoxiao was putting away the books, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a thick book in the corner, so she picked it up and read the words on the cover. Unexpectedly, it was "The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine", a book known as the ancestor of medicine.
Lu Xiaoxiao thought that many parts of the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" were lost in later generations due to various reasons. Not only people in the medical field but also people in many other fields felt regretful about this. Unexpectedly, she found the original book today and none of the content was lost. If it were to be taken out in the future, it would probably shock the medical field and benefit many people. Therefore, she must keep it well and wait for the right time to hand it over to the country.
Lu Xiaoxiao thought of six medical books of the same category as the "Huangdi Neijing", namely "Huangdi Waijing", "Bian Que Neijing", "Bian Que Waijing", "Bai's Neijing", "Bai's Waijing" and "Pangpian". Unfortunately, except for the "Huangdi Neijing", these six books have been lost.
Now that she has found the complete Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, is it possible for her to find the other six medical books?
Lu Xiaoxiao thought that no matter what the result was, she should try her best even if there was little hope. People must have goals in life to have the motivation and courage to keep moving forward.
After Lu Xiaoxiao put the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" into the space, she did not plan to continue collecting dozens of books. Firstly, she had already collected one third of the intact books. If she collected more, the remaining books would all be tattered. It would be strange if she did not arouse suspicion.
Secondly, she had collected one-fifth of all the calligraphy and paintings in the whole house. Too much is as bad as too little. There must be a limit to things. This way, it will not cause trouble to others or to herself, so she will continue to collect them next time.
Lu Xiaoxiao came to the second room, which was full of messy wood and furniture. She put away any good wood and small items she liked, but she didn't dare to touch the big ones. However, she found two pairs of Hetian jade bracelets and various jewelry, as well as a dozen large yellow croakers in the secret compartments of two carved wooden beds. This was an unexpected gain.
The third room was still filled with a mess of wooden furniture, but this time there was nothing else except a rosewood jewelry box and a golden nanmu armchair.
Lu Xiaoxiao came to the fourth room and found the things piled inside were too messy and chaotic, and many of the things were sharp. She was afraid that the noise made by rummaging through the things would alarm people outside, so she only searched around the periphery.
What Lu Xiaoxiao didn't expect was that during this circle around the outside, she actually found several intact blue and white porcelain plates and a pair of intact blue and white ruyi-patterned plum vases. If she remembered correctly, this pair of blue and white porcelain vases were sold at a sky-high price of 700 million yuan in later generations.
After Lu Xiaoxiao put the blue and white porcelain plates and vases into the space, she felt her heart trembling with excitement. She was not in the mood to continue looking for things, so she collected all the intact things on the periphery and planned to leave the scrap yard.
But when Lu Xiaoxiao just walked out of the house and heard voices coming from the next room, her good mood disappeared instantly.
Lu Xiaoxiao heard two men talking in the next room. One of them whispered to the other, "Brother Nan, we can share a large sum of money after this batch of goods is shipped out to sea."
After hearing this, the other man replied, "You won't lose any money. What you need to do now is to keep an eye on this batch of goods and make sure nothing goes wrong. Otherwise, we won't know whether our lives will be safe."
