Chapter 17: There is a universe within

After arriving home, Gu Baozhu couldn't wait to take the dressing box, smiled proudly at her two nephews, "Watch it."

She opened the dressing box slowly and fiddled with the slightly raised metal buckle on the side of the box. Soon she heard a click, as if some mechanism had been opened.

Gu Baozhu looked happy and carefully pulled apart the top layer of velvet, revealing the face of the box itself.

She easily opened the hidden compartment at the top of the box, and in an instant, the entire room seemed to be illuminated by a golden light.

The two brothers stared dumbly at their little aunt's operation, staring intently at the row of little goldfish.

If they hadn't held back, they would have screamed.

"Little aunt, what is this?"

Gold, really gold!!

Gu Weidang swallowed his saliva and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

Gu Baozhu chuckled, "In ancient times, the dressing box was a dowry item for a woman. Rich people would do various tricks on the dressing box, just to leave a chance for the married woman to survive."

"The mechanism of this dressing box is very delicate. It is located at the innermost part of the lock. Who would have thought that the small lock is the mechanism?"

"Since there is Qiankun inside, why would they sell it?"

Gu Weidang looked confused. Could it be that they are all fools?

Gu Baozhu chuckled lightly, "He said that what is passed down from ancestors is passed down from ancestors. Just listen to this and don't take it seriously."

And what’s crazy is that there seems to be a mezzanine underneath this dressing box.

Gu Weiguo's first reaction was to close the door, and then he realized that they had already closed the door after entering the house.

This is the house they rent, and it is still very safe.

Gu Baozhu took out a small yellow croaker from it, shook it and smiled.

This small yellow croaker weighs at least 100 grams. Six small yellow croakers weigh 600 grams, which is nearly one pound.

The price of gold today is not comparable to that of later generations, but it is not cheap either.

One gram weighs more than 30 yuan, and these six small yellow croakers are worth at least 18,000 and nearly 20,000 yuan.

She had no intention of keeping these little yellow croakers.

After all, there are materials collected from ten worlds in her space, and she goes out to pick them up just to put the money on the table.

The first hidden mezzanine gave her so many surprises. She didn't know how many more mezzanines there were below and how many valuable things there were.

She put the little yellow croaker aside and continued to explore, and sure enough she found a mezzanine.

The mezzanine was covered with a layer of white velvet. When the velvet was uncovered, it was filled with gold beads. It seems that the ancestors of this family must have been very rich, otherwise they would not have been able to use gold as the bottom of the box.

Gu Weiguo and Gu Weidang were already stunned. Oh my God, this dressing box is really worth the money. Didn't my sister-in-law know this early on?

The two brothers looked at each other. Gu Baozhu raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

She roughly counted and found that there were one hundred and thirty-one gold beads in the box full.

Each gold bead should weigh less than two grams, and this box weighs more than two hundred and sixty grams. Gu Baozhu calculated the price in his mind, and his eyes lit up.

The brothers couldn't wait to continue looking down, their hearts were beating fast, and they stared nervously at the third mezzanine.

The two looked at each other and trembled. Could it be that the third mezzanine was also gold?

Gu Baozhu soon revealed the truth. Inside the third mezzanine were ten exquisitely crafted gold walking sticks. The craftsmanship was very exquisite. If they were kept in later generations, they would definitely be unique and unique.

"Oh my God, sister-in-law, have you stabbed Jin Zi's nest?"

Gu Weidang's jaw dropped in shock, and he stared at Jin Buyao with his mouth agape. My sister-in-law must be so lucky.

This is just a dressing box, what about the rest?

Thinking of this, Gu Weidang's blood boiled with excitement and he wished he could go back to Fu'an Street immediately and put all the dressing boxes in his bag.

"What are you thinking? You think this kind of dressing box is just Chinese cabbage."

Gu Baozhu glared at him angrily, and finally did not forget to teach him a lesson.

"I am just lucky. Not everyone is as lucky as me. If that were the case, not everyone would be rich."

"My sister-in-law is right, not everyone can play with antiques." Seeing this, Gu Weiguo hurriedly appeared to explain.

Last year he and his roommate also went to Fu'an Street twice, but unfortunately they lost money both times. This kind of thing also depends on luck, and obviously he did not have this luck.

Gu Weidang thought about his own experience, and it seemed that he really was not so lucky and suddenly became autistic.

At this moment, Gu Baozhu had opened the last layer of mezzanine, and the two of them were already numb when they saw the treasure inside.

The last layer is all kinds of jade ornaments. Although they don't understand the types of jade ornaments, they still have a certain discernment.

These neatly stacked jade stones are definitely not cheaper than gold, or even more expensive than gold. Otherwise, they would not be placed in the last mezzanine and wrapped so tightly.

The brothers didn't know the value of the jade, but Gu Baozhu knew it.

Just take out a pendant from it and you can sell it for a sky-high price. This is the imperial green from Laokeng glass. It is definitely priceless. There is even the best blood jade, which is extremely expensive. Isn't she lucky?

A bit too outrageous?

She was a little bored. Could it be that she was the reincarnation of some kind of koi, so she was so lucky, right?

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law..."

Gu Weidang nodded clearly. Sure enough, my sister-in-law was also shocked!

Gu Baozhu quickly came to his senses and put back all the hidden compartments in the dressing box. Then he threw it aside and prepared to open the second dressing box. This feeling of opening a blind box is really amazing.

Exciting.

When the two brothers saw their sister-in-law's follow-up push, they couldn't help but twitch their lips.

Do you know how much money you pushed?

At this time, Gu Baozhu had already turned her attention to the next blind box. How could she care so much? Besides, she was not short of money, so she naturally didn't care much.

“Sister-in-law, doesn’t this dressing box also have a hidden compartment?”

Gu Weiguo couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his hands felt a little hot.

"Of course." She raised her eyebrows and smiled, continuing her treasure hunt.

With the first experience, the second time will be much easier.

However, compared to the glittering gold of the first dressing box, this dressing box is obviously much simpler.

Well, calling it simple is a bit exaggerated.

Gu Baozhu opened the mezzanine and took away the fox velvet covering it, revealing full and round golden-pink pearls.

At this moment, the sun shines in through the window, and the sun shines on the golden-pink pearls, which makes the pearls shine with brilliance and beauty.

"What a nice view."

Even Gu Weiguo couldn't help showing a hint of surprise in his eyes. He had never seen gold-pink pearls before, they were really rare in the world.

"Oh my god, it's so beautiful." Gu Weidang couldn't help but touch it with a look of obsession, "This is the first time I've seen a pearl. It's really beautiful."

Gu Baozhu chuckled and slowly explained, "Not all pearls are so beautiful. This should be the best among pearls and can be used as a family heirloom."

"There are at least twenty of them here. When the time comes, each of you will have one, and you can treat it as a family heirloom that I gave to you from my aunt."

Gu Baozhu waved his hand nonchalantly. These pearls are definitely the best and rarest in the world, and the color is even rarer. They are definitely qualified as heirlooms passed down from generation to generation.
