Carry an aquarium with you

Chapter 239 Two Vases
"Husband, what do you think is inside?" Li Xinyue was about to open the box, but she still couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked what would be in the box.

"It can't be gold and silver. There are more than a dozen boxes of gold and silver in the large warehouse of the ship below, and dozens of boxes of jewelry in the other ship. It should not be possible for tea and silk. What is it? Can't guess it either."

As for what is inside, Qin Feng can't guess, but what is certain is that the value of the things placed in the small warehouse must be very high.

But he guessed that these ships should have been sold out from the Mediterranean Sea, so the items inside are likely to come from countries around the Mediterranean Sea.

The rusty lock on the box has been broken open by Qin Feng, and the two of them can know what treasure is inside as long as they open it.

Qin Feng first opened one of the boxes, revealing a pitch-black lump of stuff inside.

It was just a paste inside, and there was no treasure at all, and it also exuded a rotten stench.

The two quickly put on the masks, which made them feel much more comfortable.

The inside of the box was so dirty, Qin Feng didn't let Li Xinyue do it, and put on rubber gloves to touch it.

"Ok?"

It feels loose to the touch, and the rubber gloves are covered with a pitch-black black substance after a little pinch, which is a bit like sand.

"These black things should be cotton, and they should be used to protect the baby inside."

Qin Feng grabbed the black substance and felt disgusted, but there was still a little bit of cotton.

Then he reached out and continued to dig in, trying to take out the treasure inside, and they would throw away the box and the black substance inside later.

When he reached the bottom, he touched a hard object.

Grabbing the item with both hands and taking it out, I realized that the item was shaped like a vase.

It's just that there are other things wrapped around the outside, plus black matter, so it's not yet clear what it is.

Li Xinyue quickly picked up the water gun to rinse, first rinsed Qin Feng's gloves, and then rinsed the suspected vase.

"It should be a vase. It is so solemnly preserved. This vase is very valuable. We really made a lot of money this time."

The price of a high-value vase is very different from that of a low-value one, but the vase preserved by the ship owner should have been very precious at that time, and it would be even more remarkable in modern times.

"Quickly open it and have a look!" After rinsing off the black substance, the wrapped oil paper was revealed.

Qin Feng tore it lightly, and a layer was torn off.

In ancient times without plastic and rubber, this thing was the best waterproof item.

Just like the hairpin, it is also wrapped in oil paper.

Peeling off layer by layer, compared with the hairpin, the oil paper used on this vase is much more. It took a total of more than ten layers to tear off completely, revealing the true appearance of the vase inside.

"Hey, it really is a vase from countries around the Mediterranean Sea!" Li Xinyue looked at the exquisite vase in front of her with a surprised expression.

The main reason is that the level of porcelain production in ancient China has always been very high, and the unearthed vases are also particularly famous.

But they were really surprised to see such a foreign vase with such exquisite craftsmanship.

This vase has a dark blue background as a whole, covered with white enamel like rolling waves, and seven Roman gods including Cupid, the god of love, are carved on the body of the vase.

Each one is lifelike and has a different style, and anyone who sees this vase will be amazed by the exquisite craftsmanship of the ancients.

Qin Feng touched the body of the bottle and felt that the material of the vase might be different from what he thought of as porcelain. Instead, he could feel that the material of the vase was a bit like glass through the white image on it.

The vase is perfectly preserved and looks like brand new.

We must know that the enamel layer on the surface of those salvaged porcelains that are directly exposed to seawater has been completely destroyed after years of seawater erosion.

Even some are relatively well-preserved, encased in sand and protected from seawater.

However, after being salvaged, the upper enamel layer will also lose its original smooth and delicate appearance due to various complicated reasons, and will appear in a matte state.

This is also the biggest feature of hailao porcelain. Professionals can tell at a glance whether this kind of porcelain comes from the land or the sea.

As for the vase in front of me, because layers of protective oil paper separate the seawater, it almost forms a vacuum state, separating the seawater and other organisms that can damage the enamel layer.

Coupled with the stuffed cotton, even if this vase has been on the seabed for hundreds of years, it is still as bright as new, and there is no trace of time at all.

Qin Feng first illuminated the inside of the vase with a flashlight, and then gently picked it up to look at the bottom. After finding nothing inscribed, he had to tell Li Xinyue to take it back to the bedroom and keep it until he had time to ask Gu Junnan.

The item in the last box was not what he expected, it was also a vase, but when he tore off all the oil paper, the vase inside was beyond his expectation.

This is not a foreign vase, but from China.

The reason why Qin Feng is so sure is because it is a blue and white porcelain, and there is a suspected picture of "Liu Bei visits the thatched cottage three times" painted on it.

The shape of this vase is a plain bottom with wide ring feet, straight mouth and short neck, slightly thick lips, sloping shoulders and round belly, gradually widening below the shoulders, gradually narrowing to the bottom of the abdomen, and slightly curling at the bottom.

Judging from the shape, this is not a vase, but a large blue and white jar. Qin Feng still can't tell which year it came from.

The big jar was still taken back to the bedroom by Li Xinyue. Like before, she took out a cashmere sweater again, wrapped the big jar, and put it in the large drawer under the closet where two people usually put their trousers.

She also carefully placed other clothes around the vase, and the vase was bumped.

Qin Feng tidied up the deck, then took note of the coordinates, and then sailed for two nautical miles and threw all the boxes and boxes into the sea.

After rinsing the deck clean, he took out his satellite phone and called Gu Junnan.

If Qin Feng, the remaining treasure, wants to realize it directly, then he needs to act.

"Hey, Qin Feng, have you arrived in Southeast Asia?" Seeing that it was Qin Feng's call, Gu Junnan immediately answered it.

It was agreed before that I would take him to learn about salvage of sunken ships and how to find sunken ships, so of course we must keep our word.

But he never expected that Qin Feng's call came with a surprise.

"Not yet, we just left the Red Sea, and we haven't even reached Sri Lanka."

"What's the matter? Do you need me to pick you up when you meet pirates?"

"No, no, the pirates didn't encounter them, but they encountered four sunken ships."

"It's good if you don't encounter pirates. There are still many pirates over there. You should pay attention to wait. What did you just say, you encountered four sunken ships?"

"Haha, there are four ships. I'll send you the coordinates, so hurry up."

"I'll come right away, you stay safe and wait for me to pass."

Hearing that Qin Feng had found four sunken ships, Gu Junnan immediately put down everything at hand and rushed over by plane.

The next afternoon, he found the Mosang Dragon in a speedboat.

We have known each other for several years, and we still walk around every Chinese New Year, so Gu Junnan was not too polite with Qin Feng after boarding the boat, and asked about the sinking of the ship after a little homework.

Qin Feng drove him to the location of the sunken ship and said: "In this water area, the distance between each sunken ship is only about 30 meters."

"I have roughly explored the interior. There are more than a dozen boxes of gold and silver, and there may be dozens of boxes of jewelry. I don't know exactly what is inside. Anyway, you need to arrange a professional to estimate the value."

"Okay, I got it. This is the high seas, and I'll give you 20% of the net profit." Gu Junnan also gave the stratification very simply.

Originally, Qin Feng's share was 15%, but now it's 5% more. Perhaps this is because of the high seas, so that he doesn't need to distribute a large amount of profits to others.

With one-fifth of the pure profit sharing, he will naturally not be dissatisfied.

Gu Junnan is also very sincere, after all, the cost of salvaging the sunken ship is very high.

In addition, there are many pirates here, and the messy forces need to be dealt with, because he may be similar to Qin Feng in his hands.

After Gu Junnan ordered everything, he stayed on the Canglong.

In the next few days, he had to wait for his salvage team to arrive, and there was nothing to do for the time being.

"Brother Junnan, come to the bedroom with me, I have a big baby to show you!" Seeing that Gu Junnan finished the phone call, Qin Feng prepared to take him to the bedroom.

When Gu Junnan heard this, he covered his chest with his hands in horror: "What are you doing, even if I, Gu Junnan, don't have a wife, my hobby is still beautiful women! Don't think that you can take me down with a few shipwrecks"

"Puff~" Li Xinyue knew what was going on, and laughed when she saw that he had misunderstood.

Qin Feng's head was full of black lines: "My wife is so beautiful, what can I think about you, a middle-aged greasy man?"

Then he took out the token engraved with the character 'Zhou' and said, "Look at this, Yueyue and I found it on a deserted island."

"However, more than this token was found at that time, there were also two vases and a treasure map. The sunken ship was discovered through the map."

As Qin Feng said, he also took out the map and handed it to him.

Gu Junnan immediately became interested when he heard the words. He looked at the map and found that the location of the sunken ship was clearly marked on the map.

He immediately understood how Qin Feng found the sunken ship. With such a map, anyone who can dive can basically find it.

Then he picked up the token and studied it carefully, then touched his chin and said uncertainly: "This token may come from the Ming Dynasty, but I'm not sure when it was made."

"Then let's take a look at those two vases first. I feel that the value of those two vases will not be lower than these four sunken ships." Qin Feng is not afraid of the leakage of wealth.

If Gu Junnan had other thoughts after seeing the vase, it would be a good thing for him, at least he could see one person clearly, so as not to be accidentally plotted against in the future.

The three walked into the bedroom, and Li Xinyue carefully took out the two vases.

When the clothes were opened to reveal the items inside, Gu Junnan's eyes widened immediately, and he swears: "I am Cao!"

Seeing his reaction like this, Qin Feng and Li Xinyue looked at each other, and immediately showed joy. It seems that these two things are really valuable.

Gu Junnan borrowed a pair of rubber gloves from Li Xinyue, and then picked up the big blue and white pot first.

He looked very carefully, holding a flashlight and looking inside and out.

After reading it, he looked at another vase. He didn't even mind the high cost of the sea network, so he picked up his mobile phone and turned on the satellite network to search for information on the Internet.

After more than ten minutes, he put down his mobile phone and sighed: "You guys are so lucky, you picked up several hundred million casually. Sigh, my hard work for a whole year's income can't compare to Pick it up wherever you want."

"The price of these two items is so high?" Qin Feng suddenly showed a surprised expression when he heard that it was hundreds of millions.

He originally thought that 2000 million would be the top of the sky, but he didn't expect it to be hundreds of millions!
"The price is naturally inflated. In the eyes of those who like to collect, these two items are absolutely priceless." Gu Junnan pointed to the two vases and began to introduce them.

"Let me tell you about this foreign vase first. This is called the Portland Vase. It was made of gemstone glass during the Roman Empire. There is only one in the world now, and it is stored in the British Museum."

"But in 1845 AD, the Portland vase was smashed artificially. Although it has been restored, it is still incomparable with the intact one. It's just that there is only one in the world, so the value has not decreased."

"But if yours comes out, the value of the vase in the British Museum will be greatly reduced."

"So the flowers you put up for auction in this Portland vase may fetch tens of millions, or hundreds of millions. After all, the British Museum won't let it go easily if it hears the news."

"I see!" Qin Feng and Li Xinyue nodded clearly, understanding the value of this vase.

Seeing that they understood, Gu Junnan continued to introduce the big blue and white pot: "This big blue and white pot comes from the Yuan Dynasty, that is, Yuan blue and white."

"You belong to the story of characters. There was a large blue and white jar of Guiguzi going down the mountain that was auctioned for a sky-high price of more than 2 million RMB."

"And some other character story pots can also sell for 5000 to 3000 million. Therefore, if your big jar of Sangu thatched cottage is genuine, it will be worth at least [-] million or more. I can't say the upper limit. After all, I am not a professional researcher on antiques. "

"However, these story pots are unique, and it is impossible to unearth exactly the same big pots, so they are extremely valuable for collection."

Qin Feng would be very lucky. Fortunately, because of a naughty killer whale, he changed his mind temporarily, otherwise he would suffer a big loss.

After Gu Junnan's introduction, he asked the two of them to put away the vase first, and then walked out of the bedroom.

After recognizing the value of the two vases, he didn't show any greed, but it made Qin Feng trust him a little bit more.

But the specifics will depend on the next period of time. After the auction and get the money, he will truly believe in Gu Junnan without reservation.

If there is a sunken ship in the future, he may not share some good things.

When the money reaches a certain number, interpersonal relationships are more important.

At least in terms of going to the auction and cashing in, he needs Gu Junnan's help.
