Chapter 86: million silver dollars. A great harvest.

"Oh, I see. It should be a corpse, right? That's normal. Don't panic. There have been battles here before, and it's common to find turtle corpses. You just need to contact the local museum later."

Hong Lei said lightly.

"No! I dug up a cannon. You have to come and see Captain Hong."

"???"

Cannon...Hong Lei was dumbfounded.

How come even this thing can be dug out?
"A real cannon? You're not seeing things."

"You are right. It should be the Great General of the Qing Dynasty. I am telling you this but you may not understand. Please come and see if there are any shells."

Hong Lei said, "Okay, okay, wait, I'll be there soon. It's at the top of the mountain, right?"

"Yes, come here quickly, or it will explode soon."

"..." Hong Lei took a deep breath and said, "Okay, don't dig for now. I'll go and take a look first."

"I'll dig around a bit more. Maybe there are some cannons there."

"Hmm...you have a point."

hang up the phone.

A bitter smile appeared at the corners of Hong Lei's dry mouth.

He called the museum's director, Huang.

"Hey, Director Huang, come to Zhayaling. A Qing Dynasty cannon was unearthed here. If you don't want it, just ignore what I said."

"Qing Dynasty cannons!?"

Director Huang was shocked, this is a good thing.

It seems that the museum has one more treasure.

"Is there a project in Zhayaling?" he asked.

Hong Lei: "No, Lao Wang, you know, he donated a cultural relic to you last time, which he just dug up."

"Did Xiaochen dig it out?"

Director Huang's head was buzzing.

Why is he digging up the cannon?

At the same time, I was glad that I had a good relationship with Wang Chen.

"um, yes."

"I'll be right there. Who else is there?"

Hong Lei understood what Director Huang meant: "Come quickly. There are a group of collectors around Lao Wang. Apply for some operating funds in advance. I'll see if I can help you put in a word and ask him to sell it to you at a lower price."

"Okay! If I take down this cannon, I'll treat you to tea later."

Director Huang certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to persuade Wang Chen to hand it over.

The last time, the expert from Haicheng was criticized by Wang Chen, he has now become a laughing stock on the Internet.

Besides, he is not the kind of shameless person who likes to get something for nothing.

……

at the same time.

The Internet exploded again.

#老王今天大搞笑梦妈……Firearms and ammunition were dug up in Zhayaling, grenades were dug up, and even a huge Qing Dynasty cannon was dug up! Netizens: Are you preparing for a rebellion? #
"Damn, I almost died of laughter in Lao Wang's live studio today."

"Lao Wang: Gun in hand, follow me!"

"It's ok that you found a gun and a grenade during treasure hunting, but you also found a cannon. How can other treasure hunting anchors imitate you?"

"Make a paper cannon, hahaha."

“Classics can never be surpassed.”

"Group buying post, everyone give me one dollar, and I'll save up one million to buy Lao Wang's fireworks!"

……

Zhaya Ridge.

Liu Jin was impatient.

"This cannon is really majestic." He stroked the cannon lovingly: "Old Wang, how about you just sell it to me? I'll pay you right now, okay?"

"Come on, don't you want to buy silver dollars?"

Wang Chen put away the phone and glanced at him.

These things are in high demand and there is no shortage of buyers.

There is no need to sell to just one person; the important thing is to build up your network so that it will be easier for others to bid for you in the future.

"Hehe, I want the silver dollar too. I just get itchy when I see good things." Liu Jin smiled embarrassedly.

The other people looked disdainful; how dare you say that.

Wang Chen glanced at the golden light two hundred meters away and was about to dig.

When I looked up, I saw two people coming from the edge of the mountain top.

An old man and a foreigner were walking towards us from a distance.

The man wearing reading glasses, blue sportswear and gray hair is Chen Tianhua.

The other was a blond white man. Wang Chen knew this man. He was Jolis, the head of the Hangzhou branch of the foreign auction house Poly Auction House.

The last time this person came to Wang Chen, he wanted to buy antiques from the Song Dynasty.

But Wang Chen rejected it.

"Master Chen is here! We've been waiting for you." Kong Dashu walked up and greeted him with a smile.

A few people exchanged greetings and introduced themselves.

Chen Tianhua walked over with a smile: "Hello Mr. Wang, I have heard of your name for a long time, and I am honored to meet you today."

"No, no, it's my honor to meet Master Chen, a leader in the industry."

"Mr. Wang, do you still remember me?"

Josley smiled.

"Remember, Mr. Josley."

"Haha, Mr. Wang still remembers me. I'm very happy."

A few people chatted casually.

Chen Tianhua accidentally saw the cannon in the pit and was surprised: "Is this General Shenwei?"

"Why did you dig this thing?"

He looked at Wang Chen with a strange expression.

"It will be found if you keep digging." Wang Chen smiled and shrugged.

"Master Chen, you called out the name right away. Do you have a deep understanding of this kind of item?"

he asked.

"Well, I have studied the Qing Dynasty cannons and know a little bit about them. Can I take a look? They are very rare."

"Of course, no problem."

Wang Chen jumped into the pit and helped Chen Tianhua down.

"Thank you." Chen Tianhua nodded to Wang Chen in a friendly manner, and after standing firmly, he stroked the barrel of the cannon.

The cold and heavy texture makes people feel awe.

"What a magnificent thing! No wonder so many people want to buy the Great General of Divine Power."

Chen Tianhua paused, smiled, looked far away and said:
"As far as I know, the cannon supervised by General Shenwei in Jinzhou in the seventh year of Chongde was named General Shenwei. The cannon is made of iron and copper, with a wide front and a narrow bottom. It is eight feet and five inches long, with four ridges, and weighs two thousand five hundred catties. It usually uses five catties of gunpowder and ten catties of iron, and is equipped with a two-wheeled cart."

"Your is a genuine second-generation Great General of Divine Power. This thing is rare. You are lucky."

Wang Chen gave a thumbs up.

"Master Chen is so professional that he can even talk about such unconventional things. I admire him."

"That's not as good as Mr. Wang. Haha, can't you just say it casually?"

Chen Tianhua looked at him meaningfully.

"I just know a little bit."

Chen Tianhua smiled and said, "I remember digging out a cannon like the Shenwei General in southern Xinjiang a few years ago. It attracted a lot of people to fight for it at that time. I didn't expect Mr. Wang to dig out one here today..."

He stroked his beard and said, "This Zhaya Ridge was indeed the site of a war in the past, so it's not surprising that it was dug up."

Liu Jin said at the side: "Master Chen, can we take a look at Xiaochen's silver coin?"

He was anxious to make an offer.

Needless to say, many collectors have already received the news.

You can see it from Jolis.

"Okay, where's the stuff, Xiaochen?"

Chen Tianhua learned to call him more intimately.

It’s definitely a good idea to build a good relationship with a “magical” treasure hunter like Wang Chen. Just like today, when Jolis came to him for help, wasn’t he also trying to use his connections to buy a few things to bring back for his collection?

"You have the best opinion, Master Chen."

Wang Chen climbed out of the pit and took out the silver dollar from the cart.

When Jolis saw the box of silver dollars and the little goldfish, his eyes widened.

If this thing were brought back to their country, it would definitely be a hot commodity.

"Let me take a look!"

Chen Tianhua immediately became alert, took the Longbearded Dragon silver dollar and took out a magnifying glass to observe it.

I watched it for a long time.

He took a breath and exclaimed, "Yes! That's right, this is a Long Bearded Dragon Silver Dollar made in the third year of the Xuantong reign. I never thought Xiaochen would dig up this treasure. You've really made a fortune this time!"

"I want to kill Lao Wang!!"

"Oh my god, I got over 10 million, I'm jealous!!"

"You didn't believe it just now, you must be new fans."

"If Lao Wang doesn't say it's false, then it's true."

Wang Chen asked: "What is the current market price of a silver dollar like this?"

"Hmm..." Chen Tianhua thought for a while and said, "I estimate that it can be sold for 20 million. The last time I sold it in Hangzhou, it was 17 million. Yours is in good condition, so it will definitely be worth 20 million."
