38: Wang Shuyuan, a master of the Ming Dynasty

After figuring out the situation with the first storage unit, Qin Yun locked the door with his own lock and went to the third unit to check the condition of the Red Sandalwood furniture.

The harley motorcycle was just a pleasant surprise; what he cared more about was the state of the Red Sandalwood furniture.

After all, those things were much more valuable than an antique motorcycle.

The onlookers followed Qin Yun to the front of the third storage unit.

They watched the storage unit that this Eastern Kid had bought for ten thousand dollars.

They were very curious to see if Qin Yun would create another miracle.

Several Treasure Hunters believed that Qin Yun was simply lucky.

In the first unit, even the most skilled Treasure Hunter wouldn't have recognized that pile of black parts.

The Eastern Kid just had dumb luck!

"A newcomer's luck is always better, but luck doesn't stay with a person forever. He's bound to lose money on this third unit!"

"Inside is just a pile of broken furniture. The style definitely isn't from a luxury brand; I don't see how it could be worth ten thousand dollars."

"Forget ten thousand dollars, I wouldn't even take this furniture for free. The cracks are so large that many pieces have no practical value anymore; they can only be chopped up for firewood!"

"Don't just look at the harley motorcycle parts in the first unit. If he can't assemble a complete bike, the Eastern Kid might still lose money on these two units!"

"The Eastern Kid spent ten thousand dollars on a pile of rotten wood; I think he's crazy. Don't look at how happy he is now—he'll be crying after he finishes looking at the third unit!"

"Nobody would take the furniture in that third unit even if it were given away at a second-hand market. He'd better start thinking about how to clean up the trash!"

...Regarding Qin Yun finding the harley motorcycle, they were filled with all sorts of envy, jealousy, and hate.

Therefore, their words were even more excessive!

These people didn't believe in Qin Yun's ability and thought everything in the third unit was garbage!

Both Qin Yun and Julia knew the preciousness of this furniture.

The two of them took out new deerskin cloths from the car and began to carefully wipe the dust off the furniture.

Qin Yun weighed a piece of furniture and found it much heavier than he had imagined.

Red Sandalwood is denser than water, which happened to confirm his judgment.

After being wiped clean, the surface of the wood was purple-black.

Because only a layer of clear varnish had been applied to the exterior, the grain of the wood was clearly visible.

The longitudinal surface had glossy and beautiful patterns and stripes.

The growth rings on the cross-section were silk-like and very fine.

It had a faint, delicate fragrance when smelled.

All of this indicated that the material of the furniture was Red Sandalwood.

Having acquired a set of antique Red Sandalwood furniture, Qin Yun was ecstatic.

This had to be worth at least several hundred thousand dollars.

As for the cracks on it, although they affected the price somewhat, they could be repaired by a skilled restorer.

If the restoration was done exquisitely, it would even add a lot of charm to the antique furniture.

Red Sandalwood is extremely hard, and some cracking does not affect the use of the furniture.

The onlookers were all very puzzled.

Why were the two people in the storage unit wiping this furniture so carefully?

They hadn't even cleaned the harley motorcycle parts so seriously; could there be something strange about this?

Many people had already suspected that there was more than meets the eye to the Eastern Kid buying this storage unit.

Could a set of cracked furniture with a poor style actually be a treasure?

Seeing this situation, everyone watched patiently.

Waiting for the moment the mystery would be revealed.

Half an hour later, the two had finished wiping down the furniture.

Qin Yun looked at the antique furniture with a sense of satisfaction.

This was the craftsmanship of his ancestors, still so exquisite after so many years.

He began to observe the carvings on the furniture.

Such large pieces of Red Sandalwood were very precious even in ancient times; it was likely he could find their origin and era.

The figures carved on them were lifelike; looking at the clothing styles and hairstyles...

They should belong to the ming dynasty.

This meant that the furniture could be traced back to at least the late ming dynasty.

With at least four hundred years of history, preserved so well, and made of such precious wood, it could be called a national treasure of Xia!

After it was wiped clean, those outside who knew about wood also realized that the material of this furniture was precious Red Sandalwood.

They covered their mouths and gasped in surprise.

"My God, this... this is actually Red Sandalwood."

"Who... who was so extravagant to use the most precious Red Sandalwood to build this kind of furniture!"

"I knew the Eastern Kid wouldn't spend so much money on this storage unit for no reason. The value of the wood alone far exceeds ten thousand dollars!"

The onlookers, realizing that it was all Red Sandalwood inside, all cried out in shock.

"Oh my god, what is going on? The Eastern Kid has struck it rich again!"

"It's truly unbelievable. How much would furniture carved from this kind of Red Sandalwood be worth?"

"Red Sandalwood! It's a wood with a price almost similar to gold; the timber alone is worth at least over a hundred thousand dollars!"

"Judging by the cracks, the furniture has at least two or three hundred years of history. Ancient masters who could carve Red Sandalwood were never simple; there might be some hidden secret in this furniture."

"As expected of the Eastern Kid, he wasn't fooled by appearances and actually took down two treasure units!"

"This is a display of strength. If anyone else questions whether the Eastern Kid is just hype, I'll have a bone to pick with them!"

...Thinking about how the furniture was an antique carved from Red Sandalwood, the eyes of the watching Treasure Hunters went wide.

The furniture took on a different appearance in their eyes.

Simple, natural, and harmonious—it was practically the work of a great artist.

"Eastern Kid, is that really Red Sandalwood furniture inside?"

An impatient old man, desperate to know if it was really Red Sandalwood, shouted toward the storage unit.

Qin Yun was admiring the ming dynasty furniture when he heard someone asking and turned around.

He wanted these shallow-minded Treasure Hunters to know the greatness of Xia furniture, so he nodded in admission.

"That's right. This isn't just furniture made of Red Sandalwood; the carvings on it are the masterpiece of the ming dynasty master, Wang Shuyuan!"
