Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

The items in the package seemed to be things used by children, such as toys, small clothes, books, etc. The glowing target was buried under this pile of things.

"Let me see what these are." At this time, Liang En was no longer in a hurry, but began to slowly check the contents of the cloth bag from top to bottom.

Soon, many valuable things were cleared out. For example, he has a well-preserved teddy bear doll from the 1970s. He estimates that if he finds the right person, he can sell it for more than 100 pounds.

However, other fairy tale books are not so valuable. Even a thick dozen of them will only cost seven or eight pounds in a second-hand book shop. From the catalog of these fairy tale books, Liang En discovered that this collector had very popular tastes.

At least half of it was something I had seen when I was a kid. After cleaning up the things on the surface and putting them away in categories, he finally saw what the search target underneath was.

"A whole set of "Harry Potter" and various setting collections." Liang En suddenly became excited when he saw the things exposed at the bottom.

For him, who was a Harry Potter fan in both his previous life and this life, this thing was definitely very attractive, so he naturally planned to move this pile of things home for his own collection.

Anyway, these things are basically mass-produced products printed in large quantities. In terms of economic value, they are not very expensive. If they are to be sold, they can only be sold as second-hand books at a discount.

As Liang En happily stuffed these books into the schoolbag he was carrying, the thick pile of books piled at the bottom of the package gradually shrank, and it was at this time that he found the glowing target. .

"Hey, did you wrap it in brown paper?" Liang En felt a little curious when he saw the book placed at the bottom of the package. Because this is the only book in the entire package that has extra protection.

After gently cutting the thread wrapped around the package with the knife he carried and opening the kraft paper package, a cheap hardcover book with a 32-carat paperback, red cover and blue back cover appeared in front of him.

The cover of this book depicts a red steam train locomotive and Harry Potter wearing glasses standing in front of the locomotive. The top half of the cover says Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

Turning the book over, there was a picture of a middle-aged man smoking a cigarette on the edge of the blue back cover.

"This can't be the legendary first version of Harry Potter!" As a Harry Potter fan, Liang En naturally has a deep memory of certain things. So he immediately opened the page and started reading.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, he found two errors in this version of the book. On one of the pages on the back of the book, the word "Philosopher's Stone" is missing an o. Another one wrote the word "wand" twice in the list of Harry's belongings before going to school in the book content.

What's more, the book also has J.K. Rowling's signature on the title page. It can be seen from the signature that the previous owner of this book may have known the author, so he went to the author to sign it as soon as he bought the book.

If the date behind the signature is authentic, then the signature on this book is most likely the first name J.K. Rowling signed on a self-published book.

Because the official publication date of this edition of the book is June 26, 1997, and the signature date left on this book happens to be that day.

You know, at that time, J.K. Rowling was a pure newcomer in the publishing world, and there shouldn't be many people who would go to her specifically to get her autograph with a book.

When Liang En finished the analysis, three cards appeared in his mind. There are one [Detection (N)] and two [Identification (N)].

After realizing that he already had six [Appraisal (N)] cards in his hand, Liang Enxuan finally made up his mind and chose to synthesize a single [Appraisal (N)] card.

Just like the last time when the [Detection (N)] cards were synthesized, after confirming the synthesis, a light enveloped four identical cards, and then a bronze card appeared in the place where the cards originally were.

[Appraisal (R): In the journey of searching for history, just knowing the specific conditions of those historical sites cannot satisfy the needs of those looking for history. In this case, everyone naturally needs to go one step further.

Skill card (one-time use). By consuming this card, the card holder can designate a certain historical item as the target, and then use this item as an observation point to observe a period of history. This period cannot be divided and is limited to three days. 】

"This is definitely a treasure card." Liang En became excited after reading the introduction on the card. Because this means that he can glimpse the leopard and glimpse some drops of water in the long river of history.

Not to mention that even just three days of ordinary ancient people's lives are enough to make those historians scratch their heads. If he is lucky, he might have the opportunity to see some major historical events or find something. Some forgotten treasure.

Because of such a discovery, Liang En took more than ten minutes to calm down and then continued his tidying up work. Unfortunately, nothing eye-catching was found either on the shelves or in those cloth bags.

Several of the cloth bags contained empty boxes or messy clothes, and even the knots tied on them were different from most cloth bags.

This situation illustrates one thing, that is, after the owner of this house passed away, his children once entered the house and took away some things that were probably valuable.

And this may be the reason why the current owner of the room was willing to let Liang En and the others take away the things in the room as they pleased after accepting two thousand pounds. Because they have been here before and took away some valuable things.

Liang En and Pierce confirmed this even more when they exchanged their findings over lunch, because Pierce also found many similar empty containers.

"I found a violin bag, a flute box and several silver-coated jewelry boxes." Pierce shrugged. "There is no doubt that they are all empty."

"But that doesn't mean I gained nothing. For example, I just found a box used to store video tapes. It looks like it should be a very good antique."

After saying that, Pierce swallowed the fish and potato chips wrapped in newspaper in his hand in two or two mouthfuls, and then walked out the door. Soon, he walked in dragging a box that was all wrapped in relief except the bottom.

"This is the treasure I found before." Pierce said, patting the metal box about 1 meter long. "The box is made of silver-plated copper, and the overall look is quite exquisite, so I want to keep this thing for my own collection."

"Uh..." After taking a closer look at the metal box, Liang En turned to look at Pierce. "Doesn't your family have too many taboos about things in the funeral industry?"

"How is that possible? We Irish pay more attention to this than most British people. For example, when my father sees a hearse, he will quickly find a piece of wood and knock it with his fingers."

"Then I suggest you sell this thing quickly." Liang En pointed at the metal box and said, "This should be a ceremonial coffin."
