Golden Greenery

A piece of light yellow-green jade with four edges and corners, the upper edge is wrapped with a ring of gold, and the length, width and height are about 10 centimeters.

Jade is good jade, and its uniform olive color exudes a soft and noble atmosphere. Gold is real gold, and gold inlaid with jade does not make it tacky, but has a majesty that cannot be blasphemed.

Zhuo Yang has not seen it, but Zhuo Yang knows it.

The gold-encrusted jade in all directions strongly attracted Zhuo Yang. He ignored Karadze and rushed forward to hold Fang Yu tightly in his hands. After holding it up, he looked at it carefully.

There were eight small characters engraved on the jade seat. Zhuo Yang didn't recognize them, but he knew they were small seal characters. Zhuo Yang didn't know Xiaozhuan, but he knew these eight characters.

‘If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live forever’

——The jade seal of the country!

.

There is no cultural relic in Chinese history that has more inheritance significance than the jade seal passed down to the country.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Bian He, a native of Chu, dug up jade in Jingshan Mountain and presented it to King Li of Chu. The king thought Bian He was a liar and cut off his left foot.

After King Li died, Bian He presented the jade to King Wu. King Wu thought he was a liar and chopped off Bian He's right foot.

King Wu and King Wen of Chu came to the throne. After crying for three days and three nights, Bian He presented the jade to King Wen of Chu. This time, he was no longer a liar. King Wen unlocked the original jade stone and finally obtained the beautiful jade, which he named "He's Jade" after Bian He.

I learned it in primary school texts.

Five hundred years later, He's Bi fell into the hands of King Zhao. After King Qin Zhaoxiang heard about it, he was willing to exchange fifteen cities for He's Bi. As a result, the story of Lin Xiangru's "returning the jade to Zhao intact" was triggered. I also learned it in elementary school texts.

After Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, the Heshi Bi finally fell into the hands of Qin. The First Emperor carved it into a jade seal and ordered Prime Minister Li Si to carve the eight seal characters "I have been ordered by heaven, and I will live forever".

So far, He's Bi, also known as the imperial seal, has become a symbol of the orthodoxy of China's central dynasty.

When Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony, whoever entered Xianyang first was fighting for not only the world but also this jade seal.

Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, and the imperial seal was thrown away by the Queen Mother angrily. A corner of it was missing, so Wang Mang ordered someone to wrap it in gold to make up for it. The jade seal has now become gold inlaid with jade.

Green forest and red eyebrows,

It was this jade seal that was fought over, and it eventually fell into the hands of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, all the heroes came together for this piece of jade.

To fight against Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian obtained the imperial seal from the palace well in Luoyang. However, when Yuan Shu found out about it, he kidnapped his wife, and Sun Jian had to hand it over for someone else.

Yuan Shu, who was a bandit, got the imperial seal and believed that he was destined to be his destiny, so he openly proclaimed himself emperor. As a result, he was beaten everywhere, and even Liu Bei beat him until he cried like a ghost, and finally starved to death.

When Yiguan was crossing south, Sima Chi lost his jade seal. A group of heroes from the former Zhao, later Zhao, Ran Wei, and Eastern Jin Dynasties killed many people in the Central Plains for this jade seal. Song, Qi, Liang and Chen, the jade seal finally returned to the Sui Dynasty.

Thirty-six roads of smoke and dust are also fighting for the jade seal passed down to the country. Empress Xiao of the Sui Dynasty took it and hid in the grasslands to seek refuge from the Turks. Emperor Taizong Li Shimin ordered General Li Jing to massacre all over the northern border, snatched it back with people and seals, and drove all the Turks to the Western Regions.

During the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, this jade seal was still the one that was snatched. Zhao Kuangyin wore a yellow robe and carried the emperor's seal to establish the orthodoxy of the Song Dynasty.

The Northern Song Dynasty was also the era when the gold-inlaid jade imperial seal last appeared in official historical records. By the Southern Song Dynasty, only unofficial histories and rumors remained. From the Southern Song Dynasty onwards, kings of all dynasties were frantically searching for it. From time to time, someone would say that they had discovered a jade seal, but without exception, they were all rumors and forgeries.

Until the Qing Dynasty was overthrown by the Revolution of 1911, and China's two thousand years of feudal monarchy disappeared, there were still people who claimed to have seen the imperial seal.

But it did disappear after the Northern Song Dynasty. This disappearance took nearly 900 years until it appeared in Switzerland and in front of Zhuo Yang today.

.

After looking at it for five minutes, Zhuo Yang suppressed the shock in his heart. He did not dare to stand up, fearing that he would lose his balance.

"Kahar, where did you get it?"

"It's been handed down from our ancestors."

"Do you think I will believe it?"

"Zhuoyang, I didn't lie to you. It was really passed down from our ancestors."

"Kaha, do you know what this is? It's not that I underestimate your family, this thing..." Zhuo Yang didn't say anything further, but just shook his head slightly.

Are you worthy of your mother-in-law?

"It's true, Zhuoyang." Kaladze said: "I know what it is. In order to find out, I checked a lot of information, your Chinese information. So I know very well what it means to you, China."

"Zhuoyang, I believe you know very well that I have been trying to build a good relationship with you and become friends with you for six years. I just want to sell it to China, and you are the most suitable candidate."

"If it's true..."

"It's true, I've verified it."

"Really, it is indeed worth 100 million. But, Kaha, do you think I will pay 100 million?"

Kaladze closed his eyes and nodded: "You will, because we are friends."

Karadze succeeded. He had been sincerely friends with Zhuo Yang for six years, and their friendship finally withstood the evil intentions in Zhuo Yang's heart at this moment.

It is said that Zhuo Yang is bound to get the jade seal of the country. It is an important weapon of the country, and Zhuo Yang must not let it continue to wander. Not to mention a little Kaladze, Zhuo Yang would not hesitate even if he left Switzerland for a bloody battle.

He doesn't have 100 million, but for this 'friend', Zhuo Yang will have it.

Six years of hard work allowed Kaladze to save his life and get money.

Kaladze was indeed thoughtful. When he knew what was in his hand, he realized that blessings and misfortunes could only come from a single thought.

Once the news leaks out, the importance of the national jade seal will be enough for the Chinese government to take action, and it will do whatever it takes. By then, he, Kaladze, would not be worth a few bullets.

Even if he made the news public and used the attention of international public opinion to protect himself, using the jade seal to sell money became a wishful thinking. Because everyone knows that this thing comes from ancient China and belongs to the Chinese.

By that time, he and Yuxi will become bargaining chips in international political struggles, and may even die due to accidents when necessary, but no one will care at all.

Even if Mingda survives, Kaladze will still hate China because of this. Being remembered by such a huge force, he never wanted to live his life again.

What about your political dream? What about the funds needed to enter politics?

Therefore, selling the jade seal to a Chinese person whom you can trust, who is also very reliable and capable is the best and only choice.

This person is Zhuo Yang.

Zhuoyang does not need to have 100 million, China does. Zhuoyang only needs to have the ability to raise 100 million from China.

In order to enter politics, Kaladze needs this 100 million. He needs to use investment to enter the circle of oligarchs so that he can become a pawn in the hands of oligarchs.

In order to enter politics, Kaladze cannot have anything to do with this 100 million transaction. He needs the buyer to keep it secret, so the buyer must be a friend.

.

"Kaha, 100 million euros, I bought it."

"Zhuoyang, I need money..."

Zhuoyang waved his hand: "If you are willing to sell it to me, it is actually very good. No need to say more. I bought it."

"However, I still need to find someone to identify it, and it will take time."

"Of course. I believe in you, Zhuo Yang, and I hope you can believe in me too."

"Of course I believe you, and I am honored to be your friend. Now, Kahal, can you tell me its story? How did it come to your home?"
