CHAPTER 742 REVEALS

Cai Jing drives a Red Sports Car, wears a casual suit, and wears sunglasses. His hair stands up in a wet way and he looks young, but the crow's feet around his eyes give him away.

But he was not at all self-conscious as he walked in at a brisk pace with a confident smile on his face. He was followed by a stylish middle-aged man who seemed to be his manager.

"Isn't that Cai Jing, why did he come here?"

"He used to be scolded for a long time because he didn't know anything about our culture and history, and he made a big mistake that insulted Chinese history, he became a laughing stock in the Entertainment Industry. In recent years, he has become more and more outdated, so fewer and fewer people scolded him. But in the past few days, he seems to have gained popularity again, so more people began to scold him again. He probably wants to improve his image as he is often seen visiting well-known libraries, National Palace Museum, historical sites and so on."

"That's it, but does he really know Spider-Man?"

"That should be true but he refused to tell the real identity of Spider-Man."

Su Jing looked at Cai Jing from a distance and he asked faintly: "Does Old Xie know this Cai Jing? Why would he invite him?"

Qian Jibing said: "I don't think Old Xie knows him. He said he was invited, but he was actually coming all by himself. Old Xie just happens to open the museum, and he happens to be nearby. It is estimated that he chose this place based on the principle of proximity. Old Xie couldn't just drive him away, right? Besides, although he is a bit outdated, he still has a celebrity effect, and he should be able to help make this place famous."

Su Jing nodded. If Old Xie knows Cai Jing then he might as well talk to Cai Jing through Old Xie.

After all, if he was a friend of Old Xie then Su Jing would give a little bit of face to avoid unpleasant trouble. However, since Old Xie doesn't know him then he doesn't need to be too polite.

….

Thank you all for coming. Let me introduce some special treasures to you. If you are interested then you can listen to their introductions, and if you are not then you can look around freely." Old Xie proudly introduced several treasures.

He looks like a perfect Presentor of the cultural relics. His words were clear and softly paced, and his voice was comfortable to hear.

Among the treasures here, there are Bronze Tripods, Ancient Porcelain Bottles, Bronze Statues, Jade of the Goddess of Mercy, Bronze Mirrors… Everything here is full of Ancient Aura that dazzled the people present here.

Old Xie mainly introduces the treasures that were covered with a cloth at the beginning. One of the treasures Old Xie had introduced is Qianlong Fencai of Ding Zhuanxin Vase.

It is already quite precious (Approx 5-10 Million) not only because the Porcelain Bottles are precious in general, but it is also because Old Xie had bought it from abroad for only One Hundred Thousand Yuan.

It can be said that he had picked up a big leak and it can also be said to be the biggest leak in history.

In addition, there is another treasure sent to him by others, the Qing Dynasty Qianlong Manufactured Gold Peach Leather Scabbard, Number Seventeen of the Heaven Category-Baoteng Sword, the whole blade is in a slender S-Shape.

The blade is slightly upturned from the tip, and it is carved with a White Jade Handle. The bottom of the Sword Handle is in a vortex shape, and a six-petal flower is carved in the middle.

A hole is drilled at the center of the Six Petal Flower, and the yellow silk tape with beaded and tassels is worn upon the Blade Handle. The back of the Blade is engraved with a gold plate.

There are gold, silver, and copper wire inlaid floral ornaments and cloud dragon patterns on the Blade, and the gold and silver wire decorative frame is embedded with the Blade's poetic name-"Baoteng".

And it is also the royal number of this Blade- "Number Seventeen of the Heaven Category". On the other side of the blade, in the same spot as the name, is the Qianlong Reign Mark.

The scabbard is made of wood with a woven peach skin decoration, engraved gold-plated belt, and hanging yellow lanyard.

The materials are precious, the workmanship is exquisite, and the meaning behind this Sword is profound, the artistic and the historical value of this Sword are both emphasized, and it represents the highest standard of 'Booming and Golden age of the Qing Dynasty.

After a while, Old Xie came to a glass box covered by a black cloth.

Before lifting the black cloth, he looked in Old Tao's direction and introduced: "The creator of this treasure is on the scene, he is one of the Modern Era Sculptor, Tao Qinzhu. I would like to thank Mr. Tao for bringing such treasures to my Hidden Building."

Everyone turned their heads to look at Old Tao and they applauded one after another while Old Tao gave everyone a humble smile. Then, Old Xie lifted the black cloth, revealing the contents of the glass box.

Everyone looked at the hidden object and they were all taken aback. At first glance, they thought that it was a shrunken-down version of a waterfall, with cliffs, flowing water, waves under the waterfall, rocks, and shrubs on both sides…

Everything looked so alive. But on closer inspection, they found that this was actually just the inside of a bamboo cut, with bamboo joints still on both sides.

"Oh my Gosh, it is so vivid."

"A piece of bamboo can be carved so beautifully. It looks like the work of Gods."

"Old Tao's carvings are really getting better and better."

Everyone was amazed, Su Jing, Liu Qing, Liu Hong, Qian Yingzhu, Qian Jibingand the others were all amazed and Cai Jing couldn't help but applaud.

Tao Qinzhu was praised by everyone, but he only showed a faint smile on his face which showed his self-restraint.

Su Jing had known that Tao Qinzhu was very good at carving, but he did not expect him to reach this level. This was an eye-opener even for him. Of course, he could also see that this section of bamboo is from the Zither Emperor Universe.

Old Xie continued to introduce a 'Snuff Bottle' from the Qing Dynasty, which was sent by Old Qian. After introducing a few more pieces, he stopped and asked everyone to have a look for themselves.

At this time, a tall and handsome young man with a box in his arms stood up and said: "Old Xie, I didn't know about the opening of your museum until very late, so I didn't deliver the collection in time. I don't know much about cultural relics. I bought this piece when I was shopping in Antique Street, and I would like to ask Old Xie to help me take care of it."

"Open it, let me have a look." Old Xie was very interested.

"Look." While the handsome young man opened the box, he deliberately or unintentionally looked at Qian Yingzhu's side, with a smile on his face. Qian Yingzhu didn't see it and looked on as usual.

Su Jing noticed this but he did not pay attention to it. He guessed that the handsome young man knew Qian Yingzhu. Su Jing also thought that the handsome young man looked familiar like he knew him from somewhere but he couldn't recall from where.

Liu Qing, on the other hand, curled his lips and then looked at Qian Yingzhu twice and he couldn't hide his appreciation.
