142 Millionaires! Billionaires! Snatching up National Treasures! (1)
A Sikorsky S-92 helicopter.
With strong transportation capabilities, the Sikorsky S-92 helicopter often serves high-demand offshore oil platforms. However, this model is also often used by wealthy folks for private use.
The cabin area was about 12 square meters and could accommodate 19 passengers. It was very spacious and the interior was made of high-quality materials and carefully designed.
In terms of flight performance, comfort, and reliability, the S-92 is an excellent choice for passengers. The built-in automatic vibration system uses dedicated sensors and accelerators to improve cabin comfort and reduce turbulence.
!!
The S-92 could reach a speed of 174 miles per hour and has a flight range of up to 629 miles.
…
The moment he saw the vehicle, Luo Feng was a little tempted.
He swore that he would definitely buy the exact model to play around with in the future.
However, he was also aware that the helicopter would cost millions of dollars, and that it had high maintenance fees.
It seemed that the friends that Wang Yousheng had brought with him were very rich.
Of course, in such a mountainous terrain, there was no way for the helicopter to make a proper landing.
However, they could still use the helicopter’s ladder.
Before long, many individuals climbed down the ladder one after another, including several middle-aged people holding large bags, had fancy suits and dresses, and had given off strong airs of wealthiness.
“Luo Feng, these people are not simple!”
“They are all billionaires!”
Qin Rubing has been in the antique industry for many years and thus, she was familiar with many of the wealthy antique-loving folks within Jiangnan?
“They’re this rich?”
Seeing this, Luo Feng’s eyes narrowed into slits.
I’d rather my clients be rich than not.
It seems like I’ll make a killing this time.
Other than the few rich bosses that Wang Yousheng had brought with him.
Apart from the wealthy bosses brought by Wang Yousheng, Lin Yide and his entourage from the official Jiangnan Museum had also arrived.
“Master Lin, aren’t you only arriving at night?”
Luo Feng exclaimed in surprise.
“I saw their helicopter at the foot of the mountain and decided hitched a ride.”
Lin Yide smiled.
Although it was the first time he was meeting up with Luo Feng, the two were already very familiar with each other.
They had exchanged several calls, after all.
“Elder Lin, would you like to take a look at the tomb?”
After all, Luo Feng had already shown off most of the relics to the livestream. All that needed to be seen had already been seen.
All that was left to investigate was the structure of the tomb itself.
“Damn!? Is this the archeological team from the museum? How are they so rich?”
“They actually rented a helicopter over?”
“Didn’t you hear what he said? He hitched a ride!”
“Haha! One can even hitchhike a helicopter, huh? I see!”
“What I’d like to know is just how rich these people Wang Yousheng had brought with him are!?”
“The auction later will definitely be very exciting, right?”
Wang Yousheng took a few steps toward the tomb and suddenly asked, “Hey, Little Luo, where’s your saber-toothed tiger fossil? ”
“About 10 minutes east from here. I’ll get Huang Tianba to send someone to take you there!”
Although Luo Feng had not carried any of his findings with him, he did order Huang Tianba as well as his men to watch over his discovered items.
Since they were trustworthy people.
Luo Feng doubted that any issues would arise.
Huang Tianba’s men had consisted of two villages worth of people, numbering at over a thousand heads, which was more than enough manpower to go around.
Luo Feng only needed to dig for treasures and leave the rest to his brothers.
“Alright, I’ll take these folks to look at the saber-toothed tiger fossil first. You guys can head to the tomb first!”
Wang Yousheng announced.
A few old men from the archeological team and some wealthy folks followed behind Old Wang.
Meanwhile, Lin Yide and Gu Santong looked at the tomb raiders’ entrance and asked, “Mr. Luo, is this the ancient tomb?”
“That’s right! I’ve already carried some of the cultural relics out, but there are still some left below!” Luo Feng nodded.
“Young man, you’re impressive. Not only do you have knowledge of artifacts that even an old demon like me can’t compare to, but you also have skills in protecting them,” Gu Santong looked at Luo Feng with satisfaction.
It was not mere flattery.
Take, for example, the tomb-sealing bricks and the history behind the ancient painting. Gu Santong was completely clueless as to what they were!
“You flatter me. With you two here, I’m able to borrow the authority and reputation of you experts to validate my artifacts, otherwise they would be completely worthless!” Luo Feng knew that despite his popularity, he lacked authority, and it was still necessary to have these official people come and put labels on the artifacts. As for those private museums that lacked any reputation, Luo Feng couldn’t be bothered to invite or pay attention to them.
After a moment, the group went down to take a look at the tomb and praised its structure and size. After about an hour, they had seen enough. At the entrance of the tomb, more artifacts that had been transported out were displayed, such as large blue and white porcelain plates and vases, 6 swords, official seals, a chicken cup, and other artifacts, one by one, were placed in front of everyone.
...
“Yes, this is indeed something from Emperor Chenghua’s era…”
Lin Yide nodded in satisfaction.
In truth, he did not need to inspect the relics.
After all, after replaying the livestream several times, he was more than certain that Luo Feng had identified the relics correctly.
Nevertheless, he still needed to see them with his own eyes.
However, just as he finished speaking.
A few more helicopters flew up from the foot of the mountain.
First it was 2…
Then 4!
Holy crap!
The number of antique collectors, private museum, and official museum staff that were coming over was just too many.
...
Upon seeing the helicopters, Wang Yousheng and others who had gone to see the saber-toothed tiger fossil hastily returned as they knew that the arrival of the helicopters indicated a mass increase in competitors.
“Master Wang, you’re an expert in porcelain. You’re the most reputable person here. Can you appraise the value of this blue and white porcelain plate?”
