But at the entrance of the treasure, there are two huge carved lions, these two lions are taller than adults, and the majesty is from the handiwork of famous artists.

It doesn't matter how famous it is, what Han Yue lacks is money, and the reason why he is shocked is because of the material of the lion.

These two exquisitely carved lions were all carved from jade, and Han Yue didn't even have to look closely, he found that the lion was a whole when he swept it from a distance.

Adult tall lion carving ......

The whole body is carved from a single piece of jade......

Han Yue was stunned for a long time, only to feel a buzzing in his head, he came to his senses after a long time, gasped and said: "White as snow, condensed as fat, this, this is Hetian mutton fat jade?" ”

Li Chong next to him coughed and said softly: "Your Highness, don't doubt it, the two lions are carved by mutton fat jade, and your subordinates were stupid when they saw it for the first time, there is such a huge treasure in the world." ”

He subconsciously scratched his brain, and it seemed that he couldn't think of adjectives when searching his intestines and stomach, and finally he could only make a few random gestures with his hands, and said: "Even in the private treasury of His Majesty and Niangniang, I have never seen such a treasure......

This thing was the leader of the Hundred Cavalry Division a long time ago, not only responsible for the royal investigation of confidential monitoring of public opinion, but also responsible for protecting the royal private treasury in the palace, so his knowledge is very extraordinary, and he has seen a lot of good things in the treasury of the emperor and empress.

Han Yue glanced at him, then leaned over to the lion to take a closer look, he touched the surface of the jade lion with his hand, felt the oil and luster of Hetian mutton fat jade, and suddenly sighed lightly, and said: "It is indeed a rare treasure, but unfortunately it can't be taken out for money, no one can afford these two lions, and it can't achieve the purpose of this king digging treasures for the people." ”

Li Chong was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Han Yue to say this.

In fact, these two lions guarding the treasure gate are too valuable, so valuable that they cannot be measured by money, and one gram of sheep fat jade in later generations will cost tens of thousands of yuan, although these two lions are in the Tang Dynasty, but the value is still incalculable.

Han Yue looked at it carefully and said in a deep voice: "This thing should not be owned by the Central Plains, and it seems that the carving is the style of the Western Regions." This king opened a mutual market outside the customs back then, and I had a lot of dealings with jade merchants in the Western Regions. Yes, the foundation of Buddhism is in the Western Regions, and the Dongdu Buddha and the host of the Big Buddha Temple are the two giant deceptions of Buddhism, thinking that these two jade lions were deceived by them from the hands of Buddhism in the Western Regions, and these two guys even ...... their own people."

Li Chong smiled evilly and said, "The pit is a pit, and in the end, it is cheaper for Your Highness." ”

Han Yue was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but say, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Li Chong glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, you can also see that these two lions are priceless, looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, no family can afford it, in this case, why bother to sell it, this is clearly a treasure given to you by God, let you stay and suppress your own private treasury, and pass it on to your children and grandchildren from generation to generation." ”

When he said this, he was afraid that Han Yue would not agree, so he followed and said: "My subordinates are not pleasing to you, I really think so, if God is not deliberately generous, why would he let Buddhism appear such a priceless treasure." Priceless, you can't sell it, you can only keep it for yourself. ”

Han Yue was also a little moved, he really liked these two lions, he kept rubbing his hands on the surface of the lions, and finally gritted his teeth viciously, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, it's mine, this king has seven or eight children to raise, and I have to leave some heirlooms for them in the future." I'm afraid that the children will fight in the future, after all, there are only two ...... for this thing."

Li Chong laughed, and said with a strange expression: "Your Highness, don't rush to a conclusion, your majesty will lead you inside." ”

Han Yue's heart moved, and he subconsciously blurted out: "Listen to what you mean, there is a huge treasure in it?" ”

Li Chong's eyebrows fluttered, and his face was full of mystery: "Treasure, Your Highness, Dongdu Buddha has been searching for a treasure for a full thirty years, and his subordinates said before that you don't want to be stupid, you still kick me, and you will know how scary this treasure is later." ”

"Let's go!" Han Yue waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Today, this king has to find out, I'll see if I can be stupid." ”

Li Chong secretly snickered, and said in his heart: "You were scared stupid when you saw the jade lion just now, but now you forcibly pretend to be hard-mouthed......"

However, this product is loyal, almost fighting with Liu Heishi, and the slander in his heart was not revealed, but he just smiled evilly, which led Han Yue to go inside.

This Buddha cave is extremely huge, the more you go inside, the more magnificent it becomes, Li Chong seems to have figured out all this place, and said to Han Yue as he walked: "The Zhanger Golden Buddha that serves as the gate of the Buddha cave is just garbage, and the two jade lions guarding the door are also very ordinary, Your Highness will find out that the real good things are inside......

Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and said, "Well, look, it's here!" ”

At this time, because he had been in the cave for a long time, there was hardly any light around, and Han Yue looked at it in the dark for a long time, and his brows couldn't help but wrinkle slightly.

Li Chong rattled a strange laugh, took out a fire fold from his arms and opened it, the firelight flickered slightly, and he easily lit the torch inserted in the stone wall.

The next moment, it is resplendent and dazzling.

Han Yue only felt a sound in his mind, and this time the shock was even worse than when he saw the jade lion just now.

Li Chong's spirit acted as an explanation, pointing to a huge red coral in front of him and said: "Millennial coral, 10,000-year-old red, this thing is a peerless treasure, and the world can't find a second one." The subordinates remembered that when the Little Stone Hall was born, Fan Yang Lu had sent a three-foot-high red coral, and the old man of Lu Yinzhi claimed that the coral was the first in the world, if he saw this one in the Buddha cave, he really wanted to see the old man's red face......

The red coral in front of me, up to six feet high, is not only luxuriant, but also scorching, even if people who don't understand it look at it from a distance, they can feel that it looks like a flaming tree, a blood-colored tree.

Han Yue muttered for a long time, and finally gasped for air, and said in shock: "In the past, Shi Chong and Wang Kai were rich, and it was the rare treasure red coral that won, among which there is a four-foot red coral, which is known as the largest tree in the past. But this coral is six feet tall, and it's, it'......."

"It's worth more than all the corals in Shi Chong combined!" Li Chong took over the topic in a whisper and gave an appropriate note to the red coral in front of him.

Han Yue suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "This is another thing that cannot be realized, the value is even higher than those two jade lions, no one in the world can afford it, even if you want to sell it, you can't sell it." ”

Li Chong smiled and said, "So, this is Your Highness's private treasury again." ”

Han Yue's heart was pounding, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth viciously, and said, "But! "Him

Li Chong was overjoyed, and hurriedly dodged to let go of the red coral, then pointed his finger forward, and said with a mysterious expression: "Coral is the Seven Treasures of Buddhism, and it is forgivable for Dongdu to loot this thing, but Your Highness, you look at this thing again, and your subordinates are really stupid when they see it for the first time." ”

Han Yue was slightly stunned, his eyes swept over the red coral to see what Li Chong was pointing at, and he saw a huge pitch-black stone, which was the size of two grinding discs at a rough glance.

He frowned slightly, and said in amazement: "Coal? Black jade? Obsidian? Or is it the inked bones of a behemoth? ”

Before these four things were gone, Han Yue couldn't understand why this thing was placed in the treasure.

But Li Chong licked the corners of his mouth, his expression was obviously greedy, and his expression suddenly made Han Yue's heart move, and he vaguely guessed that this black grinding disc was not an ordinary thing.

"Say, don't sell it!" Han Yue snorted lightly and made a gesture to kick Li Chong.

Li Chong dodged away, and then came over again, there were obviously only the two of them in the treasure house, but this thing still subconsciously looked around, and then lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness, have you heard of ambergris?" ”

Boom Boom –

Han Yue only felt a huge tremor in his head, and his eyes stared blankly at the big black grinding plate.

"You... What did you say? This... Is this ambergris? He stammered and spoke with a hint of disobedience.

Li Chong's face was full of flattery, and he said in a low voice: "Yes, Your Highness, ambergris, and a few grades of ambergris." This thing has been a treasure throughout the ages, it is said that the largest piece is as big as a naughty child's head, and that old thing in Dongdu is really amazing, he made this ambergris full of two grinding plates. ”

"Rare treasure, this is rare treasure!" Han Yue's face was full of joy, and he couldn't help but step forward to take a closer look.

As the old saying goes, a penny of ambergris costs ten taels of gold, what is this ratio, this is a crazy ratio. In ancient times, one tael was sixteen coins, but one tael of ambergris could be exchanged for ten taels of gold, so the conversion rate was at least one to one hundred and sixty times.

The most important thing is that ambergris can be cut into small pieces and sold, which can fully meet Han Yue's requirements for fundraising, and the larger the ambergris, the higher the price.

For example, a fist-sized piece of ambergris can be sold for ten taels of gold for one dollar, and if it is a watermelon-sized ambergris chopped and sold, one penny of ambergris can be sold for at least twenty taels.

And how big is the ambergris in front of me, the size of two grinding discs......

"Have you weighed it?" Han Yue suddenly screamed, and even his breathing became rapid.

Li Chong nodded hurriedly and replied solemnly: "Although there is no specific weighing, but the command and a few soldiers have raised it and estimated that this piece of ambergris will weigh at least five hundred catties, and the weight will only be higher than this number, not lower than this number!" ”

"Five hundred pounds!" Han Yue only felt a tingling in his scalp.

He stared directly at this grinding plate, and muttered to himself: "Five hundred catties, equal to eight thousand taels, one hundred and twenty-six coins, that is, close to 130,000 yuan, one coin of ambergris, and a minimum of ten taels of gold......"

Li Chong coughed and cautiously reminded: "Your Highness, one coin for ten taels of gold, that is the most ordinary ambergris, this is a rare treasure in the treasure house, and your subordinates feel that even if the price is fifty taels and one dollars, they will be robbed by the wealthy families." ”

Han Yue was dizzy for a while, and he almost didn't dare to calculate.
