A treasure-appraisal maniac

Chapter 108 An unexpected surprise

When Lu Fei was chasing the tricycle, he mainly noticed that the flange disk was not made of Haihuang material, and the carving technique was not the work of the same person as the other parts.

To others, this wouldn't be surprising.

The diameter of the flange disk is more than 40 centimeters. Such a large sea yellow material itself is rare, so it is understandable to use other wood as a substitute.

But Lu Fei doesn't think so.

The carvings on this fish tank are definitely made by a master with skillful and natural and smooth knife skills.

Being able to afford a crystal fish tank, being able to have master carvings, and being decorated with silver, all these together show that the owner of the fish tank is definitely a powerful person.

When he came into close contact with the fish tank, he saw the words "Governor's Mansion" on the inner wall of the bracket, which further confirmed Lu Fei's guess.

Who is the Overseer?

In the Republic of China, that was the existence of the local emperor. A military governor couldn't afford sea yellow aniseed. Isn't that nonsense?

Not to mention 40 centimeters of aniseed, they can also get the aniseed used to make coffin boards.

So Lu Fei concluded at that time that there was definitely something fishy about this fish tank.

And the trick is definitely in this thick flange disc.

The flange disk was covered with thick paint. Lu Fei found a knife and gently scraped the side.

After scraping it a few times, Lu Fei couldn't help but laugh.

Damn it!

There was not just one layer of paint on it, but three full layers.

Applying one layer of paint is to protect the solid wood, applying two layers of paint means that there is no silver in this place. It is obviously hiding something, not to mention three layers of paint.

As the paint was scraped off layer by layer, the true colors were finally revealed.

As expected, this thick flange disk is made of two pieces of wood, with a gap in the middle protected by sealing wax, just like Huang Ji's plaque.

However, the sealing wax of this flange disk is slightly more advanced. It was the sealing wax used by Liulichang to repair porcelain during the Republic of China. It was one of the most expensive ones at the time.

Lu Fei was familiar with handling sealing wax, and he still used the old method of melting wax with a knife.

Half an hour later, all the sealing wax melted away, but Lu Fei did not open the mezzanine rashly this time.

Lu Fei knew that the Qilin Needle was hidden inside the interlayer of the Huangji plaque, so he boldly opened it.

But faced with this, Lu Fei hesitated.

It was like silk hidden inside. After a hundred years of sealing, once it was opened rashly and exposed to oxygen, it would immediately oxidize to ash. In that case, he would be beaten to pieces. Lu Fei would never allow such a thing to happen.

It's easy to tell what's hidden inside.

Lu Fei not only has an eagle eye but also a much more sensitive nose than the average person.

He put his nose to the gap and smelled it hard. The next second Lu Fei was disappointed.

Because what Lu Fei smelled was gold.

Although gold is expensive at more than 300 grams per gram, compared with antiques, gold is just dregs, dregs among dregs.

Not to mention the mezzanine, even the flange disk is made of gold and how much is it worth!

Lu Fei was extremely depressed and opened the mezzanine without hesitation.

Lu Fei glanced inside casually, but the next second his obsidian eyes emitted two blazing rays of light.

"Hey!"

"Good stuff!"

The mezzanine space is extremely small, no more than one centimeter deep.

There are two things inside.

A copper key and a gold leaf.

The gold foil is no more than the size of a cigarette box, and its thickness is negligible.

There is a horizontal and vertical line of inscriptions on it.

Engraved across the side is "Citibank Vault Certificate of Magic City."

Engraved vertically is "Tian Zi Jia No. 507"

It has the Citibank logo on it.

There is a private stamp engraved on the left margin, with three seal characters "Yang Yuting" on it.

Ha ha!

It turned out to be a vault certificate and key, and I made a fortune!

If it hadn't been for the commander's great victory, we still don't know who would win.

In the end, he was only given the false title of deputy commander, and then made excuses to ask him to study hard.

It was precisely because this incident completely chilled him that the subsequent mutiny took place.

The biggest hero didn't get any benefits, but the one who was the most flattering got the fattest job, the governor.

Jiangsu has been a land of plenty since ancient times. After that man took office, he directly raised a forty-meter rake and started a crazy money-making mode.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Not long after he took office, he was always being tricked behind his back by people he looked down upon.

In the middle of the meeting, he lied about feeling unwell and wanted to take a shower later before continuing the meeting.

When he got to the back, he changed into casual clothes and asked the driver who had been waiting at the back door to drive out of Jinling alone.

He ran away, but all the wealth he collected was transferred to several major foreign banks. The value of that wealth was unimaginable.

Back then, people only found one voucher from the Continental Bank in Shanghai, and with just this voucher, they were able to withdraw four million in cash. You can imagine how rich this guy was.

Being able to get the vault certificate made Lu Fei's excited little heart almost jump out of his chest.

Citibank was much more powerful than Continental Bank at the time. Not surprisingly, the value of this certificate was much greater than that of Continental Bank.

Lu Fei was so excited that he immediately searched online for the current ownership of Citibank's vault.

It wasn't until two o'clock in the middle of the night that Lu Fei fell asleep after everything was sorted out.

The next day, after a day of heavy drinking with three men, Li Yunhe, at the hotel, Lu Fei left the hotel at around nine o'clock in the evening, carrying a backpack and a mask.

I took a taxi to the Caotang Antique Market. As soon as I arrived at the parking lot, I noticed a figure sneaking back and forth in the darkness.

Lu Fei followed quietly and saw the man walking to a white Maserati car and squatting down. He took out a sharp dagger from his waist and stabbed the tire fiercely. When Lu Fei was chasing the tricycle, he mainly noticed that the flange disc was not made of sea yellow material, and the carving technique and other parts were not by the same person.

To others, this wouldn't be surprising.
