409: Discover jewelry and antiques.
As Shen Yan was washing, he noticed the water level suddenly rise significantly. He looked at the pond.
"Sister Xiao, did you notice the water in this pond has risen quite a bit?"
"No, I didn't."
No?
He had just been washing his hands, and as he washed, he noticed the water had risen a lot.
Could it be his imagination?
Shen Yan continued to wash his hands with water. He noticed that the water quality was much better than before. The water looked very clear.
Could it be that there's a spring on this mountain? So this is mountain spring water flowing down?
After Xiao Niannian washed her hands and face, she walked around the pond.
Xiao Niannian had barely walked a few steps when she heard the cry of a seagull.
She also saw something shining in the distance.
Xiao Niannian walked forward. When she got there, she saw it was actually a diamond ring and a gold-inlaid gemstone necklace.
She had some knowledge of jewelry, so she carefully examined these two items.
They were real.
Xiao Niannian held them in her hand and looked around.
"Sister Xiao, what are you looking at?"
Shen Yan saw the diamond ring and gold necklace in Xiao Niannian's hand, and his eyes widened.
"Sister Xiao, where did you get that ring and necklace?"
"Picked them up from the ground."
Hearing Sister Xiao's words, Shen Yan looked around.
Could you really pick up jewelry from the ground? Sister Xiao wasn't joking, was she?
But he believed Sister Xiao, so Shen Yan carefully searched the surroundings.
He saw a few small gold nuggets not far away.
"Sister Xiao, there are gold fragments here."
Xiao Niannian walked over and saw that there were indeed several gold fragments.
It seemed as if some animal had dug them out. The surroundings were full of rocks, and this area had been washed by a heavy rain, making the soil much looser and noticeably less than in nearby places... This was why these jewels had been exposed to the surface.
"Sister Xiao, these are all for you."
Although Shen Yan's pocket money was usually controlled, he was not short of money to spend. Besides, what would a grown man want with jewelry? These were only for girls.
"This is real gold, you can take it and have some jewelry made later. Although gold isn't worth much now, its price will definitely increase in the future..."
Hearing Shen Yan's words, Xiao Niannian smiled.
The reason she was so good to Shen Yan was because Shen Yan was also extremely good to her, treating her like a biological older sister.
"You should look again, I don't think there's only this much here."
Hearing Xiao Niannian's words, Shen Yan immediately became interested.
"Really? Then I'll have a good look."
Shen Yan immediately started digging with a small knife.
When Lu Jing walked over, he saw Niannian and Shen Yan squatting on the ground, digging the soil with knives.
"What are you doing?"
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Shen Yan didn't even lift his head and said,
"Brother Lu, we found jewelry here. We picked up a diamond and a gold necklace, as well as small gold nuggets... We're looking for more..."
Hearing this, Lu Jing's gaze turned to Niannian.
Niannian stopped at this moment, wiping away the soil. The small knife had just touched a hard spot, and from the sound, it was a wooden box, reinforced with iron sheets.
Xiao Niannian looked up at Lu Jing.
"I found a box, come help me dig it out."
"Okay." Lu Jing heard Niannian's words, smiled, and agreed, walking over.
With Lu Jing's help, a large box was quickly dug out.
Shen Yan had also dug out a box by this time and was rejoicing.
"Sister Xiao, I dug out a box."
When Shen Yan picked up his box, he happened to see Lu Jing and Xiao Niannian lifting out their box.
"Look."
Seeing that large box, Shen Yan immediately swallowed his other words.
"Oh my goodness, Sister Xiao, how did you dig out such a huge box?"
This box was more than ten times larger than his.
It was just too big.
"This might be a place where someone buried treasure." Xiao Niannian looked around, then at Lu Jing, stating her guess.
"This place, like that cave just now, even if people were looking for fresh water, they would only go to the steps over there..."
She was thinking of getting more water for Shen Yan; the water in her space was naturally much cleaner than the water out here in the wild.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have come over here, nor would she have discovered so much jewelry.
"Brother Lu, these boxes should all contain jewelry. Sister Xiao found them, so they should all go to Sister Xiao..."
Hearing Shen Yan's words, Lu Jing gave him a cold glance.
Shen Yan was so scared that he immediately lowered his head. He opened the lock.
He found that it was full of gold bars.
"So many gold bars."
"Could there be more underneath?"
Shen Yan increasingly felt that if someone buried treasure, they wouldn't just bury a little bit.
He continued to dig. The sound of a knife hitting a stone was different from hitting wood. Hearing this sound, Shen Yan knew there were more boxes underneath.
Lu Jing also opened the box Xiao Niannian had just dug up. This box contained some gold ingots and some antiques.
"These are antiques... right?"
Xiao Niannian almost blurted it out. Although she had told Lu Jing and the others that she had seen many books at the recycling station before, and those books might have introduced some antiques, being able to tell if an antique was real or fake, state its age, and accurately share other knowledge just by looking at it would be even more problematic.
Xiao Niannian also knew that Lu Jing currently had some doubts about her, but Lu Jing liked her, so he pretended not to know many things and didn't delve into them... "They are antiques, they look like they're from the Song Dynasty... and these few pieces are from before the Song Dynasty..."
Listening to Lu Jing's analysis, Xiao Niannian nodded.
She found that Lu Jing knew so much. She had come to this world from decades ago, but Lu Jing was born into a military family in this world, and for him to know so much showed that he was truly very capable.
He was truly excellent in every way.
She never expected to meet such an outstanding person here; there really aren't many people this excellent.
Lu Jing saw Niannian looking at him with sparkling eyes. He knew this was praise, and he curved his lips.
"If you want to learn in the future, I'll teach you."
"Okay."
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Xiao Niannian nodded.
Shen Yan also ran over.
"Wow, these are all antiques, and mine are all gold bars."
Lu Jing picked up the walkie-talkie and called for people.
"03 calling, 002 squad immediately come to the pond on the south side of the island..."
"002 squad received."
Soon, the Soldiers of the 002 squad arrived.
Lu Jing looked at them and said,
"Find some tools and thoroughly search this area. Antiques and gold have been discovered here..."
