“Watch me.”
Ye Feng smiled at her and took out the Flying Tiger Claw from his bag.
After staring at the platform for a while, he suddenly swung the Flying Tiger Claw in his hand.
The tiger claw, dragging its long chain, flew towards the high platform.
“Kacha!”
The tiger claw accurately grabbed a stone wall on the high platform.
Ye Feng tugged hard, after confirming that the tiger claw was firmly in place, he turned around and smiled at everyone. “If I fall into the pool, I’m afraid I’ll have to rely on you for the rest of my life.”
Although everyone knew that he was joking, they could not help but feel a little worried.
“Is this method reliable? It won’t be good if you fall down.”
“Let’s think of another way. This is too dangerous.”
“Mr. Ye, why don’t I go first?”
“Ye Feng, can you not force yourself…”
Everyone tried to persuade him.
But Ye Feng ignored them, he jumped and flew over the mercury pool.
At that moment, Xu Jingxin, Fuuma Jianwu, and the others’ hearts were at their throats.
Fortunately, Ye Feng managed to reach the high platform safely, he climbed up like a monkey and soon reached the high platform.
He did not look at the treasures immediately. Instead, he fixed the chain and swung the other end back.
With his demonstration, everyone began to follow the order and grabbed the chain to cross the mercury pool.
And Ye Feng was responsible for dragging them.
Soon, the nine members of the expedition team climbed up the platform.
At this moment, the mountain of treasures was already close at hand.
Ah Can couldn’t wait to go forward, his eyes filled with shock.
Among these treasures, the most numerous were bronze artifacts, followed by a large number of jade artifacts, gold and silver, and a large number of ant nose coins.
“Oh my god, is this the Xiang King’s secret treasure?”
Even Zhuang Xiaoqiao couldn’t help but exclaim.
Ye Feng picked up an exquisitely carved bronze cauldron.
This cauldron was square in shape, about a foot in length and width, and there were lifelike dragon carvings around it.
He couldn’t help but praise, “The forging skills of this cauldron are very brilliant. Among the bronzeware of the Pre-Qin period, it can definitely be considered as the best of the best.”
“How much can it be worth?” Ah Can didn’t care about the forging skills. He only cared about how much it was worth.
“This is already considered a national treasure-level cultural relic. It’s difficult to judge it with a specific price. If I have to give a price, it should be at least 500 million.” Xu Jingxin suddenly interjected.
“Oh, my god!” Ah Can exclaimed loudly, “Just this one is worth more than 500 million yuan. Then how much are all these treasures worth?”
Ye Feng estimated it and could not help but sigh. “If I have to give it a price, it should be at least thirty billion.”
“Three… 30 billion?” Ah Can’s mouth was already wide open, and there was a look of disbelief on his face. “Doesn’t that mean that Mr. Ye has struck it rich this time?”
Although he loved money, he did not dare to covet such a huge amount of wealth.
Xu Jingxin and Fuuma Jianwu were not interested in this either.
The four members of the Sky Wolf team were all Ye Feng’s subordinates, they obeyed his orders.
As for Lan Xingyue, she was hired by Ye Feng, she did not have any rights to share the profits.
In other words, this wealth belonged to Ye Feng alone.
An adventure with excitement but no danger could actually yield more than 30 billion.
Was there a more profitable business in this world?
Just as everyone’s attention was focused on the treasures, Lan Xingyue suddenly reached out to grab a wooden box in the corner.
The wooden box was about a foot square and was carved with very simple patterns. It was unknown what was inside.
Ye Feng was paying attention to her actions, he quickly walked over and picked up the wooden box before her.
A trace of anger flashed across Lan Xingyue’s face, but she concealed it in an instant and regained her calm expression.
“I was just curious. Why is there a wooden box here?”
It would have been fine if she hadn’t explained, but this explanation was a little superfluous and seemed deliberate.
Ye Feng glanced at her deeply. “Open it and you’ll know.”
However, just in case there was a mechanism in the box, he still placed the wooden box on the ground and then moved a little further away. He used the Luoyang shovel to pick up the box lid.
“Pa da!”
The box was opened, and there was no mechanism inside.
Only then did everyone surround him.
Then, he saw an ancient bronze cauldron in the box.
Ye Feng felt that this cauldron looked familiar, it was very similar to the Yuzhou cauldron he brought back from Japan.
He hurriedly took out the cauldron from the box and flipped it over and over to examine it for a long time.
This cauldron was squarish, about a foot in length, width, and height. The outer wall was engraved with ancient and elegant patterns.
With just a glance, it gave off an ancient and desolate feeling.
At the bottom of the inner wall of the cauldron, two words were engraved in an extremely ancient style.
Ye Feng could not recognize which era these words were written in, he could only vaguely recognize the words “Yangzhou.”
“Yangzhou Cauldron! This is the Yangzhou Cauldron!”
Ah Can could not help but exclaim.
“You think we don’t know Yangzhou?” Ye Feng could not help but glare at him. This guy was acting all shocked, he did not have the demeanor of a king of thieves at all.
“Tsk tsk, the Yangzhou Cauldron. This is a priceless treasure.” Fuuma Jianwu could not help but sigh.
Didn’t Ye Feng and Cheng Fei’er travel to Japan to bring back that Yuzhou Cauldron?
They did not expect to find another Yangzhou cauldron here.
He was fated with the cauldron.
“There’s also a silk book here.” Xu Jingxin suddenly pointed at another box on the table.
The box was about ten centimeters wide and thirty centimeters long. The lid had already been opened by Xu Jingxin.
Inside the box was a rolled-up silk book.
Everyone was very curious. What was written in this silk book?
Ye Feng walked over and took out the silk book, it was filled with Chu Nation characters.
He could barely make out the word “Zhi,” so he coughed dryly and handed it to Xu Jingxin. “What’s written on it?”
Xu Jingxin took it and looked at it for a while. “It probably means that Xiang Yu hid these treasures before he went out to battle. In case he was defeated in the future, he could use these treasures to recruit soldiers to rebel against Qin again. It also wrote that if he couldn’t survive River East, these treasures would be left to his descendants, hoping that the person who obtained these treasures would continue to complete his unfinished great cause of rebelling against Qin.”
Everyone sighed after hearing this.
Xiang Yu had always wanted to rebel against Qin, but who would have thought that these treasures would only be discovered after more than 2,000 years?
As for Great Qin, it had long since disappeared.
Everyone was silent for a moment. Their thoughts were different.
Ye Feng was sighing at the fact that humans had so many grudges between countries and families, scheming against each other, fighting to the death, but in the face of time, it was so laughable.
In the long river of time, humans were nothing but ants.
Fuuma Jianwu didn’t have such emotions. She only cared about her master’s emotions.
As long as her master liked it, she would like it. As long as her master hated it, she would hate it.
