Chapter 384 The blind cat hits the dead mouse(1/2)
"Twenty million US dollars, you are really willing to spend money!" Jiang Wen thought that he was already prodigal enough, but he didn't expect that sitting next to him was a master who was even more prodigal than him!
"Like you, I just like it." Luo Quan smiled and took the golden seal from the female assistant. The auction also gave a fragrant sandalwood box.
Luo Quan handed the bank card to the female assistant and asked her to take it away and swipe the card. Although she just held the box in her hand without opening it, the system had already started analyzing the seal.
"How's it going? What's going on?" Luo Quan asked the system expectantly.
"A good news or a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" The system's tone could not tell the sadness or joy.
"Okay." Luo Quan said knowing it was like this.
"This is an offensive system, the kind of system that is standard for protagonists in fantasy novels."
"The system is also divided into types?!" Luo Quan was surprised, "Then what type do you belong to?"
"I am a universal type and do not have the ability to transform you into Long Aotian."
"……………………" Luo Quan was silent for a while, "What about the bad news?"
"This seal is too old and has suffered too much damage. Most of the power on it has disappeared. I am not sure whether I can absorb its function."
"That means I probably spent 200 million U.S. dollars to buy a piece of useless gold?" Luo Quan glanced at Huang Jun's back in front of her. She felt that she was the biggest one who had been dropped at the party today.
fish.
"Collection is like this. It is inevitable that there will be times when you suffer a loss. Besides, it hasn't started to be absorbed yet. Everything is still uncertain."
The words of the system sounded really cheap to Luo Quan. Luo Quan suppressed his temper and asked: "Then if it succeeds, can I be like the protagonists in fantasy novels, with martial arts, spiritual knowledge, and spiritual cultivation?"
Are you immortal?"
"Don't even think about it!" The system's answer was extremely decisive, "Not to mention absorbing such a broken offensive system, even if I were replaced with a complete and top-level offensive system, your dream of cultivating immortals would not be possible.
real."
"Why?" Luo Quan was very unwilling.
"Because after the founding of the People's Republic of China, you are not allowed to become a spirit."
The system trembled.
Luo Quan couldn't laugh, and was so angry that tears welled up in his eyes: "Speak to me in human terms!"
"Now is the Age of Ending Dharma. The spiritual energy has long been exhausted. No matter how powerful the exercises are, they only have the function of cultivating one's character and strengthening one's body. Even the system cannot change this world-wide status quo."
"So, two hundred million dollars bought a loneliness?" Luo Quan looked down at the box and his hands couldn't help but tremble.
After spending the two hundred million US dollars, she had very little savings left. Even if she returned to before liberation overnight, she would not be able to spend money as lavishly as before for a long time.
"What's wrong with you? You don't look good?" Another collection was sold on the stage. Jiang Wen, who was lowering his head to drink water, saw that Luo Quan's face was a little pale and asked.
Luo Quan shook his head: "Maybe it was because I was blown by the cold wind for a long time when I came in. Just go back and drink some hot water."
Jiang Wen shook his head and sighed: "Female celebrities are suffering. They have to wear evening gowns no matter what day, with their arms and legs exposed. Their health is so bad that they caught a cold at the last party."
If you wasted 200 million US dollars, your face would be paler than mine! Luo Quan slandered.
The small treasury he had worked so hard to save suffered a fatal blow. Luo Quan was already disinterested in the remaining content of the auction, and his attention was drifting away from the sky.
After an unknown amount of time, the noisy sounds around him brought Luo Quan back to his senses. It turned out that the auction had ended.
Some of the rich people turned around and left, while others gathered together to discuss where to go for recreation next.
Many celebrities also came over, and it seemed that they were old acquaintances with these rich people.
In such a large venue, Luo Quan didn't have many acquaintances with whom she could chat. Besides, she was in a low mood now and didn't want to chat with anyone.
I walked out of the venue silently with the box in my arms, declined the invitations from reporters outside, and headed straight to the parking lot.
"I have absorbed the remaining power in the system, but it will take a while to digest it."
"That means this thing is useless, right?" Luo Quan held the box in his hand and looked around.
She is looking for the trash can.
The system advised: "Anyway, it would be a pity to throw something worth 200 million yuan away. It would be better to keep it at home. After all, it has a history of thousands of years."
It's okay not to advise him, but this advice immediately shocked Luo Quan. He opened the box roughly and planned to throw this crap thing on the spot!
However, after opening the box, Luo Quan's movements stopped completely.
"What...what is going on?"
The seal in the box looked completely different from when it was on the stage. The gold on the outside was gradually peeling off with Luo Quan's trembling hands, revealing the snow-white body of the seal inside.
"It's probably because you shook it too hard and the power was just sucked away by me, so the seal has suffered unavoidable wear and tear."
"It's none of my business, shouldn't the focus be on you?" Luo Quan used his hand to clasp the crumbling gold on the seal, thinking that he really suffered a big loss this time.
I originally thought it was a pure gold seal, which would be worth some money, but I didn't expect that even the gold was just plated on the outside. This time I really lost money to my grandma's family.
With a click of his fingers, a large piece of gold fell from Luo Quan's hands.
Speaking of which, this layer of gold is quite thick, much thicker than ordinary gold foil.
No matter how thick it is, it is still gold-plated!
Looking at the wrinkled seal, Luo Quan was heartbroken and took off all the remaining gold pieces, wanting to see what was inside the gold pieces.
After peeling it off, Luo Quan found that there was still a seal inside, but it looked much better than before.
"Wait a minute, this thing doesn't seem that simple." The system suddenly said.
Luo Quan said angrily: "Of course it's not that simple. I spent 200 million to buy this. Tomorrow the whole of China will laugh at me for being the biggest stupid fish at this party!"
"This is a jade seal, and it's not just a thousand years old, but at least two thousand years old!"
"So what if it's two thousand years? It's just three thousand years... If it really has such a long history, maybe it can really bring back some blood." Thinking of this, Luo Quan felt a little better.
"Turn over the printed side and take a look. You might be lucky this time."
Luo Quan obviously didn't care about this statement, but she still opened the jade seal.
"This... I can't understand. It's like a ghost painting." At the bottom of the jade seal is a group of patterns that are more abstract than hieroglyphs. At first glance, they are all birds.
"If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live a long and prosperous life!"
"What?!" Luo Quan was stunned for a moment, and his heart skipped a beat when he realized what he was doing.
As far as she knows, this is the seal of the famous Chuanguo Jade Seal?
During the five thousand years of China's history, there have been countless rare treasures, but there have only been two that can be called national treasures since ancient times.
One is the Jiuding made by King Yu, and the other is the jade seal of the country made by the ancestral dragon Li Si.
It is a pity that these two treasures have long been lost. Later emperors searched for them many times, but in the end they found nothing.
And now, this jade seal that had been lost for nearly a thousand years was lying quietly in his hands.
At this moment, most people would probably fall into emotions of shock, ecstasy, and fear, and might be so excited that they couldn't even hold the box steady, but Luo Quan was unusually calm, and his hands that had been trembling became completely motionless.
Looking around, she saw that there were many celebrities driving in the parking lot besides her, but they were far away from her, and no one noticed her.
After closing the box and opening the car door, Luo Quan got in and inserted the key to warm up the car. At the same time, he called Principal Li.
"Hey, Luo Quan, what's going on?"
"Principal Li, do you know any authoritative experts in the field of cultural relics? They must be the most authoritative and experienced ones!"
Principal Li paused for a moment and said: "As for Shang Hai... there are one or two such old experts, but they are not acquaintances, they just have contact information.
What, you found a treasure from the antique market, and you plan to let an expert take a look at it?"
"The situation is quite complicated. If possible, would you please invite these experts to come to my home?
I guarantee you with my reputation that I may have discovered a national treasure-level cultural relic." Luo Quan did not dare to say anything, nor did he dare to directly tell Principal Li that the cultural relic she found was a national jade seal.
"Then I'll call Director Zhao right now, and you can send me your home address later." Although it was late at night, Principal Li still paid more attention to Luo Quan's reaction.
After all, he was a good student who had just gained a lot of popularity in the school. Now that something was troublesome for him as the principal, he had to help with whatever he could.
After sending the address here, Luo Quan put on his sneakers, put the box on his stomach and fixed it with a seat belt, and drove home.
Luo Quan could be said to be frightened along the way, fearing that bad guys would come to snatch the treasure like in the movie plot, but the journey was relatively safe and nothing unusual happened.
Back home, Luo Quan walked into the living room holding the box, where the three girls, Su and Yu, were watching TV.
Lan Xuan turned around and took a look and said with a smile: "Boss, what are you holding in your arms is a gold seal worth 200 million US dollars?"
Luo Quan sat on the sofa, but still refused to put the things down: "This thing is worth more than 200 million US dollars."
Su Yu was confused: "There's no need to be so precious, right? Do you plan to hold it to sleep tonight?"
Luo Quan nodded: "Maybe."
As he was talking, the doorbell rang.
Luo Quan took the box and walked towards the door, looking at the peephole first.
There were three people, one was Principal Li, and two old men wearing glasses.
Luo Quan opened the door and welcomed the three people in.
"Principal!" Ivy recognized the person and immediately stood up to say hello.
