According to the sign, there are ten impressive Ming Dynasty porcelains:

1. The underglaze red-wrapped lotus pattern jade pot spring bottle in Jingdezhen kiln in Hongwu, Ming Dynasty

2. Ming Yongle bright red glaze printed cloud dragon pattern high foot bowl

3. Ming Xuande Jingdezhen kiln blue and white tangled lotus pattern celestial ball bottle

4. Plum vase with blue and white tangled lotus pattern in Jingdezhen kiln in Xuande, Ming Dynasty

5. Ming Xuande Jingdezhen kiln blue and white tangled lotus pattern double-eared bottle

6. Ming Chenghua Doucai Seawater Extraordinary Beast Pattern Can

7. The colorful flower dragon pattern garlic bottle in the Wanli area of ​​Ming Dynasty

8. The Ming Chenghua Festival in the Red Earth White Dragon Pattern Bowl

9. The orthodox blue and white dragon pattern large jar

10, Jiajing red and green colored cloud dragon pattern lid jar

There were several Qing Dynasty porcelains on the shelf behind, and Guan Hao also looked at the signs carefully:

1. Qing Kangxi Doucai Bamboo Pattern Bamboo Side Lid Can

2. Qing Yongzheng enamel peony pattern bowl

3. Qing Qianlong enamel bamboo chrysanthemum quail picture bottle

4. Qianlong enamel character picture bottle

5. General jar with pink alum red gold peony pattern in Yongzheng Qing Dynasty

The utensils on the shelf are all heavy objects and are of great value. Cao Wan also found many solid wood boxes in the corner of the wall, with whole boxes of porcelain wrapped in straw.

When Guan Hao shone with a flashlight, he found that the sea water was visible.

"These should be all exported haystack porcelain."

Sure enough, there is a sign next to the box: The shipwreck of the Huang family in the Southern Song Dynasty from Yanghe, 26th year of the Republic of China

"This is obtained from the South China Sea No. 1 wreck." Guan Hao was excited for a moment and blurted out.

"What is the South China Sea-1 shipwreck? What did you say?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I was excited for a moment and didn't know what I said!"

"I feel itchy when I see the baby in this room!" Guan Hao quickly changed the subject.

"Let's take a closer look? Maybe there are other discoveries!"

In this almost constant temperature and relatively dry environment, the stored objects are generally good.

However, it can be seen that storing objects in this cave seems to be a temporary solution, and it can be seen that it is a bit hasty and helpless.

In addition to rare books and porcelain, the study room also has four safes completely embedded in the mountain.

"This is a Dibao mechanical anti-theft safe, and it is almost impossible to open without the keys and passwords." Cao Wan was more aware of the goods and reminded Guan Hao.

"Looking at the placement of the items in this room, I think this is a temporary storage point for the Huang family. Maybe it's because of why it was originally used and it was not transferred again."

"Well, it's very hasty!"

After walking around, the two of them returned to the desk, turned on the green lamp on the desk, and found that the desk was neatly filled with newspapers and books.

Guan Hao casually flipped through the dusty newspapers, all of which were from the period before and during the Republic of China, including Yuehua News Agency, Guohua News Agency, Suicheng Daily, Suicheng Daily, Jinshan Daily, etc. As he looked, Haozi began to feel uneasy.

"Wan'er, you see these newspaper headlines with the same content!"

"The rich family's daughter disappeared mysteriously, Huang's reward of 100,000 yuan", "The rich family's daughter elopes with the driver to escape marriage!", "The rich family's only daughter disappeared, and her fiancé cannot escape his responsibility!", "The rich family's daughter's daughter's disappearance revealed the secret of the rich family's daughter's disappearance!"......

The two read the contents of the newspaper: There were more than a dozen newspapers reporting that Huang Shaofen, the only daughter of the Huang family in Xiguan, disappeared mysteriously in the 34th year of the Republic of China.

The Huang family also offered a reward of 100,000 yuan but failed.

"Okay, you see, here is written about your Guan family!"

Guan Hao took the yellowed newspaper and quickly browsed the content.

"It turns out that Senior Huang is my wife who has not passed the door of Damiweidongting.

She has betrothed to my Guan family since she was a child, and her fiancé is named Guan Yonglie. She should be a member of my grandfather's generation."

"In this way, the Guan family Huang Shaofen on the tombstone of Senior Huang can explain it clearly!"

"Yes, Senior Huang died in the 39th year of the Republic of China, that is, 1950, and the newspaper reported in the 34th year of the Republic of China, that is, 1945. So where did Senior Huang go in the past five years? How could he be buried in this remote Huang family courtyard?"

There were another pile of questions that puzzled the two of them.

"There is a sandalwood wooden box here, with three layers. Let's see what's inside?" Wan'er said and pointed to a wooden box on the desk.

It is a three-layer wooden box made of sandalwood, similar to the office file box. It usually contains some documents and small objects on the desk.

Guan Hao opened the first floor and was full of letters. He took out one and saw that the envelope read: Brother Lie’s kiss on Qifen’s sister book. It seems that it was a letter written by Huang Shaofen to the Guan family’s fiancé.

Haozi quickly put the letter back.

Guan Hao flipped through other letters casually, and all of them were written by Huang Shaofen to his fiancé. Out of politeness, Guan Hao carefully put the letter back into the wooden box.

The second layer is a diary made of deer leather on the cover. When you open the title page, a line of beautiful small characters come into your eyes:

Life is a gorgeous robe covered with fleas.

————Huang Shaofen

Guan Hao was attracted by this sentence and couldn't help but look through Huang Shaofen's diary.

"On this desolate Bailu Island, I am always fighting the damn leprosy. If it weren't for this disease, I would have been my wife of Brother Shilei now, and we will live happily together and go global for honeymoon as we had agreed before, but... Brother Lie, Fen misses you so much."

"I was idle on the island. I took advantage of my clear mind and carefully studied the "Nanyang Kaozhi" passed down from generation to generation by my Huang family. I found that there was another hidden secret in the shipwreck of the Southern Song Dynasty outside the sea of ​​Yanghe. According to the oral statement of the shipwreck survivor Huang San after the return of the shipwreck, the Royal Escort Provincial Department of the Province was carrying important items on the ship. Because of the hurricane, it sank in the sea of ​​Yanghe."

"According to the chart marked after the crash, my Huang family has been trying to salvage it since the crash, but was affected by the conditions and has not been successful. It has exhausted all the efforts of more than ten generations of my Huang family, but it has been futile."

"The turning point was in the 26th year of the Republic of China. My father joined hands with his business partners: Saxontai and foreign companies established a salvage team, introduced the most advanced equipment from the West and invited the best divers at that time to salvage together. Our Huang family adhered to the family mission of 657 years (the shipwreck was in Xiangxing, the Southern Song Dynasty, and the salvage began in 1937, exactly 657).

"Things are going very smoothly. The salvage work has found the bottom warehouse and a batch of porcelain has been salvaged successfully. Just as the salvage team was about to find the cabin where the officials of the provincial officials in the eunuchs, the Japanese ship suddenly broke in. Fortunately, the in-laws Dongting Guan family tried their best to block it, which made the Japanese fail to break through the defense line to see the truth. The salvage was eventually interrupted."

"The next year, the Japanese pirates invaded Suicheng. Our Huang family was forced to follow the Taihe Foreign Company to move to Mingzhu and overseas because they did not cooperate.

At this point, my Huang family had all the best to complete the family mission, and my grandfather died in the 28th year of the Republic of China."

"According to the sea charts at home and the description of the crew members who returned, the officials of the provincial eunuchs on the ship carried six large solid wood boxes, and the accompanying officials were inseparable from the wooden boxes. It can be inferred that there were valuable items from the royal royal family of the Southern Song Dynasty in the wooden boxes. I also looked up all the letters and logs of the ancestors of the Southern Song Dynasty to infer that the royal family of the Southern Song Dynasty had already felt that the Yuan Meng was invincible and could not resist, and had long been instructed to transfer wealth."

"My Huang family has been traveling in Nanyang for generations, and was the largest royal merchant at that time, so the important task of opening up a secret base in Nanyang and transporting royal wealth fell on our Huang family. It is not surprising that the cargo on the Yanghe shipwreck is the royal six-person wooden box and the secret inside."

"In the second year of Xiangxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, the battle of Yashan sea was the most tragic and dangerous moment since my Huang clan established itself. After this battle, two out of ten male members of my Huang clan remained, leaving only the orphan and widowed mother with her children to avoid the disaster of the ancestral house of Xiguan, Suicheng. Before the head of the family died in battle, he ordered his personal guard to take the young master to vow to find the place where the royal secret treasure of the Yanghe shipwreck."

"Recently, I have searched through the genealogy, letters, family records and other documents of all generations, and found that the Ministry of Revenue, who was an official in the second year of Xianchun (1266), was in charge of the Ministry of Revenue, which was in charge of Huang Juren's family. The court was preparing to find an island in Nanyang to store royal wealth in order to make a comeback. It was called the "Revival Plan" at that time."

"From the time perspective, starting from 1266 and until 1277 of the Battle of Yashan, the royal wealth was transferred for 11 years. After reasoning, the incident of the Huang family shipwreck in Yanghe, Yanghe, occurred in 1276. Since the Southern Song Dynasty court sent senior executives to accompany the ship, the six huge wooden boxes should have the secret of the royal treasure hidden in the South China Sea."
