Chapter nine hundred and sixty-three South Vietnam blue and white celestial bottle
Whether it was a sunken ship, a hidden treasure, or even a gem vein, Chen Wenzhe would definitely not be able to find it even if he tried for a while.
But he has clues, and they are related to the gem mines in the mountains.
Chen Wenzhe traced back the gems that Li Weizhao had traded to him, as well as a large number of notes given to him, and combined with the information that could be searched in South Vietnam, he found that all the treasures hidden in South Vietnam were finally attributed to a gem mining area.
Chen Wenzhe did not know where the Japs hid their treasures during the Second World War in South Vietnam. He knew that one station was located in a gem mining area.
At the end of World War II, the transport ship used by the Japs to transfer treasures probably ended up in this gem mining area.
Now, based on the gems provided by Li Weizhao, he discovered the gem veins in the mountainous area in the north.
The gem mine over there must have been mined before, but it was later abandoned.
The new mineral vein discovered by the Li Weizhao family is near the old mineral vein.
The Li Weizhao family takes a very strict look at the new mineral veins, but the nearby old mineral veins are Chen Wenzhe's real purpose.
He wanted to go over and see if the little devil had discovered it before. If he had discovered it, he would definitely mine it.
And as long as there is mining, there must be a stronghold there.
You know, many of these strongholds back then were transformed into treasure hiding spots.
If there is a stronghold there, an inland river not far away is the main transportation channel.
Since he couldn't leave South Vietnam for a while, Chen Wenzhe planned to do something down-to-earth here.
Only then did Li Weizhao help us find such a ceramics factory.
The ceramics factory is right next to a river. The river is not very wide, but the water is quite deep and can handle large boats.
The only thing you can do here is boating. If you are transporting by land, the surrounding hills will let you know what the eighteen bends of the mountain road are!
The advantages and disadvantages here are very obvious, so the ports outside have not developed and grown.
However, here is because there are mountains behind and a deep-water harbor in front, which makes this place have a strong backing pattern.
As long as the maritime force is strong and the port is sealed with warships, it will be very safe.
Perhaps it was because of this that the power from the sea was inclined to this seaport.
With more outsiders, various industries have developed, such as the ceramics industry.
After all, South Vietnam has its limitations, let’s talk about Binh Duong’s ceramics factory.
Although they have worked very hard, they have still encountered many difficulties in their development so far.
One is reform. They must relocate ceramic factories in densely populated areas to other areas, and begin to convert traditional firewood kilns to use gas and electricity.
Innovating technology and relocating factories require a lot of capital, so the number of ceramic factories in Binh Duong Province has been greatly reduced.
Another difficulty facing the ceramic industry in Binh Duong Province is the lack of labor.
The country is small and does not have enough population, which is also a big flaw.
If you want to do everything, and if you want to become bigger and stronger, you will definitely not be able to accomplish anything.
It was against this background that Chen Wenzhe bought a ceramics factory.
The price is not expensive anyway, and the market here is pretty good, so why doesn’t he do it?
Early that morning, Chen Wenzhe walked out of the high-end hotel where he had stayed for several days.
Naturally, he was accompanied by several bodyguards, and there were some who were far away in the distance.
After all, Chen Wenzhe is relatively wealthy now, and he doesn't trust South Vietnam's security environment, especially in an area where tourism development is relatively strong, and its security is even worse.
Walking into a street, it is full of lively atmosphere.
This is an antique market and an interesting place where tourists are happy to stay.
It officially opened in 2013 and only opens on Sundays. Every time it opens, it attracts many antique and antique lovers to come to communicate and purchase.
This antique market is located in an alley and belongs to the yard of a large company.
There are more than 40 stalls here, and there is a circle of shops around it.
The main business here is old items, including ancient coins, old books, women's jewelry, ceramics, Buddha statues, copper incense burners, etc., with prices ranging from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of dong.
The antique market, which opens on Sunday, has become a gathering place for antique lovers and tourists.
Chen Wenzhe also heard about such a fun place, so he deliberately stayed here for a few more days.
It was also during the few days he spent here that he purchased a factory.
When Chen Wenzhe walked into the antique market, he felt a familiar smell.
The things sold in the antique market here are really good, at least they are not all fakes.
When you enter the first stall, you will see handmade black and white photos.
Next comes the cassette recorder, and many tourists obviously prefer zippo lighters. I heard that this thing is the best-selling item in the market.
In addition to these things, the market sells oil lamps, coins from all over the world, handmade paper paintings, and neon pottery.
Others include various watches and various jade products.
Not to mention anything else, the jade is very good. Regardless of whether it is ancient jade or not, these are all real jade.
Since most of the visitors here are tourists, the prices of small things here are not cheap.
The antique market is not big, so Chen Wenzhe quickly went around.
He found that most of the tourists who came here were not for antiques and cultural relics, but for some modern trophies.
Local people in South Vietnam are used to calling this place "Beautiful Country" with a hint of contempt in their words.
Because many of the antiques sold here are their "trophies" in the war.
For example, the watches Chen Wenzhe saw earlier were the watches of the beautiful soldiers of the country. Many of them were taken off the hands of the dead soldiers.
Others include old military compasses, watch straps, coins, etc.
The best-selling items are almost all items belonging to US soldiers during the South Vietnam War, such as military identification tags, illuminators, medals, etc.
As Chen Wenzhe walked, he looked around. In addition to coins from various countries, there were also some porcelains, which he paid special attention to.
However, compared to the things on these stalls, there are more and better things in the shops on both sides of the alley.
For example, the first house you enter is filled with copper utensils.
Of course, only a small part of the items in the store are genuine, and the vast majority are fakes.
Even so, Chen Wenzhe can still find very interesting and unique things in certain corners.
And these unique things are almost all Buddha statues.
Chen Wenzhe didn’t know much about the Buddhist statues in South Vietnam, and he didn’t even know what their main features were.
The Buddha statues he could find were mainly considered antiques based on their age.
Even if you don't understand some old things that have a history of two or three hundred years, you can tell whether they are good or not just by looking at their production techniques.
Naturally, Chen Wenzhe did not hesitate to buy these old antiques.
However, the interesting thing he found was not a Buddha statue, but a blue and white celestial sphere vase.
Chen Wenzhe was very familiar with this kind of blue and white porcelain.
