Chapter 1387 Antique Firm

"I don't know what I'm looking for!", Qin Long smiled helplessly, put down the things in his hands, looked around, and asked the old man: "Is this antique shop yours? Old man!"

"Yes!"

"It looks like it has a history of many years!" Qin Long said.

"Indeed, this store has been preserved since my grandfather, and it has been almost 300 years since my generation!"

"300 years?" Qin Long was a little surprised. An antique shop with a history of nearly 300 years. It is true that such a shop already has indescribable historical value. The feeling is so simple and warm.

"Are all the things here antiques?" Qin Long asked.

"Hehe, does the respected guest think that there are other things in the antique shop?" Hearing this, the old man grinned, it seemed that it was because Qin Long asked a question like a joke.

"I mean, how did the old man get all the things in the store? Did you collect them yourself?" Qin Long was not angry, but asked.

"Hehe, this customer seems to be more interested in my store than in the antiques in my store. Are you sent by those damn developers?" The old man looked suspiciously Speaking of Qin Long, his eyes seemed to become vigilant all of a sudden.

"Developer?" Qin Long was stunned for a moment, then shook his head quickly and said, "I'm not a developer, I just happened to pass by outside and found the facade of the old man's store very interesting, so I came in to have a look!"

"Really? Then you didn't come here to buy antiques?" The old man was dubious.

"It can be said to be yes, or it can be said to be no. I have to see if I can see something that interests me. In short, I am not the developer that the old man said. This old man can rest assured!" Qin Long slightly said with a smile.

"That's good. Those damn developers said they want to develop my store into a high-end residential area. I wouldn't agree to it!"

"So that's what happened!" Qin Long suddenly realized that such forced demolitions are also happening in many countries. After a pause, Qin Long smiled and said: "Actually, I will come to the old man's shop, I was completely attracted by the name of this store!"

"The name of the store?" The old man was taken aback, as if he didn't understand what Qin Long said.

"Yes, a friend of mine used to work here in Denmark, and he told me he used to get good stuff at an antique store called 'Anderson'!"

"Anderson?" Hearing this, the old man was taken aback again.

"I don't know if it happens to be the old man's shop?" Qin Long said with a smile.

"Hehe, it should be. There are dozens of antique shops in Denmark, but I'm the only one named 'Anderson'. That friend of yours probably bought things from me!"

Hearing this, Qin Long was overjoyed. If this is the case, it really means that this incident is too coincidental. He was only going to find Professor Holted, but he unexpectedly found Nemo after a trip. I have been to an antique shop before, there are such coincidences in this world, so life is so colorful, isn't it?

"So, when I passed by outside just now and saw the name of the old man's store, I couldn't help but want to come in and have a look!" Qin Long happily smiled.

"Although the business of my store is not as prosperous as it used to be, there are still customers coming to visit every day. Please forgive me for not being able to remember the appearance of your friend!"

The old man looked very kind!

"It's ok!"

"What did your friend buy from me?" the old man asked.

"I don't know what he bought from you. He just told me that the old man's stuff here is very good. If I have the opportunity to come, I must take a good look!" Qin Long did not think that Nemo was here. Tell the old man about buying the 'nuclear weapon' development program. Perhaps, when Nemo discovered the 'nuclear weapon' development program, the old man didn't know what it was. Otherwise, I'm afraid he wouldn't have sold those things to Nemo. Therefore, Qin Long has no way to obtain the 'nuclear weapon' development program.

Of course, after saying this, the old man was very happy when he heard it. It can be seen that he cares about his store very much. It is no wonder that he is unhappy when someone praises the products in his store. Humans like to hear good things of.

"Hehe, take your time, respectful guest, and ask me if you don't understand anything!"

Sure enough, the old man laughed happily after hearing Qin Long's words. Obviously, Qin Long's words were very useful to him.

"By the way, old man, I'm a layman on antiques. I want to know, how long does it take for something over the age to be called an antique?" Qin Long asked.

"For ordinary people, things that are more than 200 years old can be called antiques, but for professionals like us, the truly valuable antiques are more than 1000 to [-] years old!", the old man explained .

"Oh, so, does it mean that the longer the time, the greater the value of the antique, right?" Qin Long asked.

"Yes!"

"So, how many years ago can the longest time go?" Qin Long asked curiously.

"How many years ago?"

"Let's put it this way, if it's something from the 'Era of Earth', does the old man have it here?" Qin Long asked, actually, after so many questions, this question is what Qin Long wants to ask the most.

"'Era of the Earth'?" Hearing this, the old man was taken aback, and asked, "Is this guest looking for something from the Era of the Earth?"

He seemed to be a little surprised by Qin Long's request. After all, what Qin Long said was something from the previous era, an era, and it was not calculated in a mere thousand years. The things at that time, for this It has no practical or collection value at all for people from the previous era, so few people will learn about things from the previous era with him.

"Yes, if there is one!"

Hearing Qin Long's words, the old man fell silent, as if he was trying to remember, and said for a while, "This...it seems that I don't have it here!"

Hearing this, Qin Long couldn't help feeling disappointed. It seemed that not everyone was as lucky as Nemo.

"No, there seems to be one!" Just when Qin Long was disappointed, the old man suddenly changed the subject and gave Qin Long hope. Could this be Qin Long's accidental discovery?

"Yes, I remembered, I happen to have something from the last era here!", the old man really thought of something.

"What is it?" Qin Long's eyes lit up, but it seemed that he was a little too happy because he didn't even know what the old man was talking about.

"Please come with me!" The old man smiled lightly, leaning on a cane and leading Qin Long through the aisle filled with all kinds of antiques, to the deepest part of the store, and then slowly placed a wooden box under the table. The box was taken out.

The wooden box was covered with dust, and it seemed that it had been placed in this place for a long time. If Qin Long hadn't suddenly asked, such an unremarkable box would definitely not have attracted the attention of others.

The old man gently wiped off the dust on the box. Qin Long concentrated his attention and found that the style of the box was very soft and it was not locked. However, the style of this box did not seem to be a product of Europe or America, but more like "Tianyuan Kingdom". something over there.

Could it be that this thing was left by the people of 'Tianyuan Kingdom' during the 'Era of Earth'?

Qin Long couldn't help being filled with curiosity.

"Pa~", under Qin Long's curious eyes, the old man opened the box, and Qin Long's attention was immediately attracted.

"Huh?" Qin Long looked puzzled when he saw the contents in the box. He found that there was a very strange thing in the box. It seemed to be a picture scroll, but it didn't look like a picture scroll. At first glance, it looks like a scroll, but I don't know what is written or drawn in it.

"What is this?" Qin Long asked curiously.

"Scroll!", the old man replied.

"Scroll? What is it for?" Qin Long asked.

"I don't know what it's for!" The old man smiled lightly, picked up the scroll, and slowly opened it. The scroll was made of cloth. It can be seen that the material is very delicate and well preserved. It is in good condition, although it is something from the last era, but it is still very new, which shows that the owner has properly protected it.

When the scroll was opened, Qin Long took a closer look and found that the half-meter-long scroll turned out to be a painting, which was like a map.

"This is..." Looking at the paintings on the scroll, Qin Long suddenly felt that the things painted on them looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember them for a while.

The old man put the scroll flat on the table, wiped it lightly, and then said with a smile: "This is the map of 'Sky Blue Star' in the 'Era of Earth'!"

"The map of 'Era of Earth' and 'Sky Blue Star'?" Qin Long suddenly realized after being reminded by the old man. Yes, he seemed to have seen this map in a certain book before. Because this map is different from the current map of 'Sky Blue Star', so I took a look at it curiously, no wonder I felt a little familiar just now.

However, Qin Long was puzzled. This antique shop with a history of hundreds of years actually used a map of the "Sky Blue Star" from the "Era of Earth" as an antique.

"Is this also an antique? Old sir!"

"Hehe, yes, this scroll was collected by my grandfather when he was still alive. I heard from my father that when my grandfather gave this scroll to my father, he once said that this scroll was from the "Era of Earth". It was handed down from the time when it was opened, but because its value itself is not high, it was placed in the store for a while, but few people cared about it, and later, it was forgotten in the corner after a long time!"
