Fan Shigui said these well-founded words. As the boss, Lin Yi'an, instead of scolding him, revealed an indescribable smile from the corner of his mouth.
It was made clear that Fan Shigui's words were said by him.
Xiao Chang, the founder, also had an expression of sitting back and watching, with no intention of stopping Fan Shigui. He even had a faint smile on his lips like Lin Yian.
It is clear.
Both of them wanted to know what was in this so-called stone box and what its purpose was.
People are curious, but they don't want Yuan Qinghua but want a stone box, which shows that the objects in the box are more valuable than Yuan Qinghua.
It's very simple. Li Jinyong is not a fool. He can't leave the treasures and choose worthless rags.
Li Jinyong seemed to have expected someone to refute him. He calmed down and explained softly: "It's because Li didn't explain clearly just now.
"Everyone, what is inside this stone box is not a valuable treasure, but an ordinary gift given to this maritime merchant by my ancestors.
"It can be said that this object is of no use to anyone. Li pays so much attention to it just because the objects in the box have a lot to do with my ancestors and are very helpful for me to understand some things about my ancestors.
"In terms of money alone, not to mention Yuan Qinghua, it is not even comparable to an ordinary silver ingot!"
What he said was impeccable, and his expression and eyes showed a kind of determination and persistence, as if the stone box contained the key clue to unlocking a huge secret of his family.
Speaking of which, this is really hard to refute.
Tomb robbers are all for money, but others are not doing it for money!
You just want to take back something that your family gave away. You can't help but let others take it, right?
Lin Yian looked at Xiao Chang.
Xiao Chang lowered his head and coughed a few times, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the corners of his mouth.
This action should be regarded as a signal. At the same time, a strange and sinister voice behind Xiao Chang sounded very suddenly, "Mr. Li, we can't verify your words. It's just whatever you say!"
"This is empty talk, who knows if you are making it up?
"From our perspective, if there were no precious treasures in the stone box, how could the merchant take it as his burial object?
"Fighting is a business that involves death at first sight. No matter whether you are the young protector, Mr. Li, or I and other young men, we are all risking jail time to do this business. Why should we do it?"
You have to choose first?
"If this stone box contains some authentic works by the painting sage Wu Daozi and calligraphy treasures by the calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi, don't you want to take them all away too?"
Everyone looked up and saw that the person speaking was a thin man in his early thirties but not yet forty.
This man looks extremely ugly.
A sharp mouth, a monkey's cheek, a deer's head and a rat's eyes, it can be said that they are all wretched and slovenly.
His teeth are also uneven, one of his front teeth is obviously set back, and there is a large, hairy wart on the lower side of his right face. In addition, he is holding two walnuts in his hand, making him look like a dog-headed military counselor.
It's just that people should not be judged by their appearance. What he said is extremely "powerful". Regardless of whether there is some or not, first put a big hat on Li Jinyong's head. It is much more powerful than Fan Shigui's.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, it was like a pebble being thrown into the calm water, causing ripples in the room instantly.
Everyone present had a thoughtful expression in their eyes.
Yes, after all, no one can figure out what treasures are contained in the so-called stone box in the tomb. If there is an authentic painting of the holy book, the Yuan Qinghua is nothing.
Regardless of whether they are the leader or the minions, everyone fights back and forth just to get more money. You get more, and I get less. Who wants to get less?
Li Jinyong frowned and asked in displeasure, "What this brother said makes sense? Whose calligraphy and painting can be stored in an ancient tomb for more than 700 years? As we all know, in ancient tombs, it is dark and damp, and the wood will rot, let alone
It’s calligraphy and painting calligraphy on paper and silk. Even if it existed, I’m afraid it would have become a pile of moldy pulp, right?
"You Danshan Taibao are also considered leaders in the tomb robbing business. Have you ever brought out famous calligraphy, paintings or calligraphy from ancient tombs?"
However, the dog-headed military advisor did not follow the routine at all and continued to say with a tricky angle: "If the stone box is well sealed and the underground tomb is also a constant temperature environment, maybe it can be preserved. You must know that the thousand-year life of paper is not nonsense.
of!"
"you?"
"snort!"
No matter how good-tempered Li Jinyong was, he couldn't stand up to the other party's unreasonable troubles, and his face turned red with anger.
Even my arms were shaking slightly.
After waiting for a while, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Chang and Lin Yi'an, and said sharply: "Brother Xiao, Shopkeeper Lin, Li is not a person in the fighting business. This time, he is willing to take risks to accompany these two subordinates.
I must have something to ask for when I go to the tomb, otherwise I would be so full that I would risk such a big risk to go to the tomb?
"So, Li is bound to get the stone box in the tomb!
"Two choices, either let me take away the stone box, or I leave now. How to choose, you two make a decision!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Chang, as the organizer, fell into deep thought.
As the organizer of this pirated merchant tomb, he knew that he had to make a decision. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, you can take the stone box, but you have to let me take a look.
They are all risking life and death to go to the tomb, walking on a tightrope before the gate of hell, no matter what, you have to be a sensible person!"
When Lin Yian heard this, he immediately agreed: "Young Protector is right, Brother Li, you can take the stone box, but we must take a look at the items inside!"
Li Jinyong frowned. It was obvious that he was still a little reluctant at this time. This alone could tell that the mysterious stone box had extraordinary significance to him.
However, his worries are similar to those of Xiao Chang and Lin Yian. Now the three of them are grasshoppers on the same rope and no one can live without the other.
If you want to get the object you want, you have to cooperate.
He, Li Jinyong, knows how to break evil spirits and traps, but he only understands them, but does not know how to actually operate them.
It was his first time to fight upside down.
Lin Yi'an doesn't know much about mechanism skills, but he has strong hands-on skills and is experienced in breaking various mechanisms. As long as someone can explain the key points of the mechanism, he can crack it.
As for Xiao Chang, he knew the Feng Shui of ancient tombs very well. He could know the location of some traps in the ancient tombs, and if something went wrong, following him would save his life.
Although letting Xiao Chang and Lin Yian see the objects in the box will cause complications.
But if you don't agree, you can't even think about causing trouble, because the back-and-forth trip can't continue at all.
After another moment of silence, Li Jinyong finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, it's not impossible to let you take a look, but after reading it, I must be allowed to take the stone box away smoothly."
Lin Yian and Xiao Chang looked at each other and nodded at the same time. There was something unusual in each other's eyes.
The moment Li Jinyong lowered his head, there was a hint of ferocity deep in his eyes.
