A comprehensive overview of tombs: starting with the Yellow Weasel's Tomb

Yingzi turned over in the end and found that she had a small jade carving that looked like a dog or a wolf.

However, after a quick look, Bai Jing concluded that apart from the fat man's jade pendant, the other two items were not very valuable, probably only worth a few thousand yuan.

But none of them could understand why these things had appeared on their bodies.

Bai Jing couldn't help but look at the grave in front of him and said with a smile, "It seems that these ancient children gave it to us to express their gratitude."

Hu Bayi was stunned for a moment, then the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. He immediately said, "The saying 'good deeds are rewarded and evil deeds are punished' must be referring to this, right?"

Fatty and Yingzi were still confused, and they nodded mechanically.

Then, to express their gratitude for the gifts from their little ancestors, the group carefully repaired the graves of the little ancestors before stopping.

Afterwards, the four of them rode their horses, chatting and laughing, towards Ganggangyingzi.

Hu Bayi and Fatty originally planned to say goodbye when they were almost at the village. After all, they really didn't want to experience such a farewell scene, so they might as well leave directly and not cause any more trouble for the villagers.

But Bai Jing said, "Let's go back to the village. There are still some things we need to retrieve."

Hu Bayi and Fatty were both a little confused, wondering what else they needed to take.

But Bai Jing didn't tell them directly; he just smiled mysteriously.

After returning to the village, the group told the villagers about the Kwantung Army base.

Although the Kwantung Army base contained some weapons and other items, it also had many tools such as shovels and pickaxes, as well as generators and leftover diesel fuel, which the villagers could use directly.

After the villagers were told about the incident, the new Party Secretary immediately arranged for them to follow Yingzi to the location of the Kwantung Army base.

Bai Jing and his two companions stayed in the village for another day before preparing to say goodbye.

Before leaving, Bai Jing led Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi to a spot on the edge of the village, pointed to a location and laughed, "Old Hu, Fatty, do you remember this place?"

Hu Bayi and Fatty were initially puzzled, but after thinking for a long time, they still couldn't figure it out.

That's normal. After all, it was something I did unintentionally more than ten years ago. How could I possibly remember it so clearly now?

Bai Jing didn't remind them, waiting for Hu Bayi and Fatty to remember.

As the fat man casually looked around, he saw a broken porcelain bowl, which suddenly reminded him of something.

Immediately afterward, seeing Hu Bayi's somewhat puzzled expression, the fat man excitedly shouted, "I remember now, I remember now!"

Before Bai Jing and Hu Bayi could react, he ran to a tree and found a mark on it.

Then, they excitedly started digging in the ground.

Seeing the fat man's movements, Hu Bayi was stunned for a moment, then walked to the tree. When he saw the marks on the tree, Hu Bayi finally remembered what he had forgotten.

Hu Bayi's face gradually broke into a smile, and he then joined Fatty in digging the soil.

Before long, the two seemed to have dug up something.

They all smiled.

Chapter 136 A great harvest

In the Panjiayuan Antique Market in Beijing, at Big Gold Tooth's shop.

As soon as Bai Jing and his two companions arrived, they were warmly welcomed by Big Gold Tooth.

Then, Big Gold Tooth handed Bai Jing and the other two a newspaper and laughed, "Haha, the three of you are indeed capable people. Look, now the whole country knows about it."

Bai Jing and his two companions picked up the newspaper and saw that the headline on the front page read: "Japanese Kwantung Army Fortress Discovered in Yeren Gully!"

I glanced at the newspaper report.

Clearly, after learning about this, the old Party Secretary spoke to the archaeological team.

Fortunately, Bai Jing and his team had arranged for the villagers to move some tools and other supplies beforehand; otherwise, the villagers might not have gotten anything at all.

After reading it, Hu Bayi sighed, "Sigh, the old Party Secretary is really insightful. As soon as he learned about this, he immediately reported it to the state."

Upon hearing this, Big Gold Tooth sat down on the sofa and laughed, "Alright, you three, what did you bring back? Show it to us so we can see it."

Upon hearing this, the fat man looked at Bai Jing and Hu Bayi. Bai Jing nodded, and the fat man went out and brought in a large wooden box.

As the wooden crate was opened, Big Gold Tooth was stunned for a moment when he saw what was inside, then suddenly stood up: "Haha, you three have really given me a big surprise. I need some tools to examine it; there's quite a mix of things in here."

As he spoke, he went to the cabinet, took out gloves, a magnifying glass and other tools, and after he came back and finished, he first took out a palm-sized black patterned porcelain vase and said, "This is a plum vase from the Cizhou kiln of the Jin Dynasty. It is considered a fine folk kiln porcelain. It is hard to estimate the exact price, but I can guarantee a minimum price of 60,000."

Upon hearing this, Fatty and Hu Bayi looked at Bai Jing, who nodded in agreement.

As far as Bai Jing knew, just last month, a Cizhou ware bottle similar to this one was auctioned in the ghost market for about 90,000 yuan.

The starting price of 60,000 offered by Big Gold Tooth is quite reasonable.

Besides, in the end, it still depends on the transaction price.

After discussing this item, Big Gold Tooth looked at several more porcelain vases and bowls, with prices ranging from over ten thousand to seventy or eighty thousand.

Finally, Big Gold Tooth looked at the last piece of porcelain, a blue porcelain bowl with ice crackle patterns.

Upon seeing the porcelain bowl, Big Gold Tooth immediately lost his composure and could no longer sit still.

Then Big Gold Tooth exclaimed, "A Song Dynasty Ru ware celadon bowl with ice-crack pattern! This...this is a tribute-grade piece, priceless, priceless!!!"

Bai Jing was not surprised at all. In fact, if he didn't already have such an item in his collection, he would have been very envious when he saw this thing.

Bai Jing wouldn't dare say how much, but if this thing were in the 21st century, it would easily sell for hundreds of millions.

Even now, it would definitely cost at least a million.

Big Gold Tooth looked at it for a long time, and finally put the porcelain bowl down, smiling helplessly, "My three gentlemen, you have really given me a big surprise, but I can't eat this."

Hu Bayi and Fatty didn't quite understand what it meant to not be able to eat.

Bai Jing spoke up at this moment.

"Master Jin,"

So you mean this thing is too expensive, and you can't sell it?

Big Gold Tooth nodded with a wry smile.

Yes, a porcelain piece worth millions isn't so easy to sell.

Looking across the country, how many people have the financial strength to buy such items?

One million in that era had a greater impact than one hundred million in later generations.

Bai Jing thought for a moment and said, "If it's really not working out, then forget it. I'll find a way to help when the time comes."

At this moment, Big Gold Tooth seemed to have thought of something and said, "Hey, Second Master Bai, I suddenly thought of a place where we can sell this thing."

Bai Jing also became interested upon hearing this.

To be honest, Bai Jing thought that if all else failed, he could just ask someone to take this thing to Hong Kong and sell it.

We might even make a little more money.

But judging from Big Gold Tooth's expression, he seems to have some ideas.

Immediately, Big Gold Tooth asked mysteriously, "Gentlemen, have you ever heard of the Crescent Hotel?"

Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were both puzzled by what they heard. They were not from Beijing and had never heard of this place before.

Bai Jing knew this place, but asked with some doubt, "Of course I know it, but didn't the owner of the Crescent Moon Hotel go abroad not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and did the hotel stop operating?"

Big Gold Tooth laughed and said, "It's true that it wasn't open before, but recently, I heard that the boss is back, and there will be an auction on the last day of this month to celebrate the reopening of the New Moon Hotel."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing's heart stirred.

Of all those present, probably no one knew more about the Crescent Hotel than him.

The Crescent Moon Hotel is certainly capable of handling such a large sum of money. After thinking for a moment, Bai Jing said, "Then let's put it up for auction. After it's done, Master Jin will get his share of the profits."

Upon hearing this, Big Gold Tooth was also delighted.

At that time, Big Gold Tooth had made an agreement with Hu Bayi and Fatty that he would help Hu Bayi and Fatty sell their goods, and he would get a 5% cut after the deal was done.

This porcelain bowl alone is worth a million, and with the other ten or so items, the total value is probably around two million.

In other words, Big Gold Tooth could directly earn tens of thousands of yuan in one go.

Even for someone like Big Gold Tooth, tens of thousands is definitely not a small amount.

After looking at the porcelain, it was time for the gold mask and other trinkets given by the little masters.

In the end, Da Jinya quoted Hu Bayi 6,000 yuan for his blood jade pendant, and 20,000 yuan for Fatty's jade pendant because of its excellent quality.

As for the golden mask, since Bai Jing said it belonged to Guo Hama, Da Jinya, combining this with the newspaper report about a Jin Dynasty tomb, believed that Bai Jing was probably not lying.

Items with names and details naturally command higher prices, and in the end, Big Gold Tooth quoted a price of 100,000.

Now, all that's left is for the goods to be sold, and everyone will make a fortune.

As for the silver seal knob that Bai Jing obtained, he did not sell it, but kept it for his own collection.

Big Gold Tooth took all the cash in the store, about eight thousand yuan, and gave it to Hu Bayi so he could spend it first.

Hu Bayi and Fatty didn't care about these things; they knew that these things couldn't be left in a short time.

Anyway, eight thousand yuan is enough for them to use for the time being.

After Bai Jing and the other two said goodbye to Big Gold Tooth, Hu Bayi and Fatty burst into laughter.
