As A Trash Collector, I Collected A Imperial Jade Seal - Chapter 120
120 Excitement Across the Internet! Luofeng Discovers an Ancient Tomb! (2)
“What I want to know is, whose tomb is this, and how many valuable treasures are contained within it?”
“Even if we only consider the items he has found thus far, namely, the porcelain pieces as well as the copper coins, he has already made a hefty chunk of change!”
Luo Feng’s antics had already reached the top of Weibo’s trending page.
Meanwhile, the Japanese and Korean folks were a little dumbfounded by Luo Feng’s latest discovery.
!!
Gradually, on the two of the largest foreign live streaming platforms, Luo Feng had gained 100 thousand or so new fans!
While this was indeed a cause for celebration, there was also a downside to his latest discovery being published everywhere.
Once word of his achievement broke out, Luo Feng received calls from people of all walks of life.
The phone in his pocket was vibrating non-stop.
Naturally, Luo Feng had an idea on who these people were.
They were either from the cultural relics bureau, museums, or owners of antique stores.
“Sigh, guess I’ll eventually have to deal with then. What a drag though. It’s times like these that I wished I had a personal assistant!”
Luo Feng pouted and placed the Swallowtail Hoe aside.
“Hahaha! Old Luo, you’re just an excavator, what do you need an assistant for?”
“Yeah, do you just want someone to help you carry the hoe around?”
“In my opinion, such a position should be taken up by either Li Shishi or Qin Rubing!”
“I’d suggest that you forget about Qin Rubing. Though the girl may look silly and carefree, her family is more powerful than you think!”
“Well, the host should just go with Li Shishi then. I’m sure she’ll coming running should the host call for her!”
“I’m all for the Long-legged Woman! She’s even more beautiful than Li Shishi!”
“I find Li Shishi to be more attractive. Not only is she more gentle, she’s pretty and easy on the eyes as an assistant!”
“Agreed. Li Shishi would be able to soothe the host more than Qin Rubing would!”
“Guys… Weren’t we discussing about the tomb? How did we get this sidetracked?”
After wiping his hands clean and struggling slightly to get his phone out, Luo Feng happened to receive a call.
“Oh? The Jiangnan Cultural Relics Bureau? Zhang Xubao?”
“You guys are coming?”
“There’s no need to be in such a hurry!”
“Huh, you’re already on your way?”
“Alright then, be careful!”
The first call that Luo Feng had accepted since his discovery of the tomb was from Jiangnan’s Cultural Relics Bureau.
Of course.
The fact that the word “Bureau” was part of its name meant that they were government officials.
However, their status was not particularly high.
Nevertheless, they were still honorable citizens working for the sake of the nation.
Luo Feng had a feeling that the folks of the bureau were planning on assisting Luo Feng in the excavation process, and they likely would not be charging him any money.
This directly contrasted those from private museums, who would try to siphon off Luo Feng’s cash by having hiring them to assist in site excavations.
Luo Feng was no idiot.
He had his own men who were willing to help him, so why bother spending millions just for these organizations’ help?
Right after Luo Feng had ended the call, the museum folks who had pestered Luo Feng incessantly when he had discovered the submerged ancient village contacted him.
“I won’t be needing your help. I already have the people from Jiangnan’s Cultural Relics Bureau coming over!”
“I see. That’s a pity, but we still wish to witness the ancient tomb firsthand, is it alright for us to tag along?”
“Sure thing. All I have is the permit to forage this land, but not the rights to it! But let me warn you beforehand, don’t touch my treasures without permission!”
“Alright, we got it!”
Luo Feng outright rejected their attempt for Luo Feng to hire them.
Nevertheless, some part of him was impressed at their boldness.
Luo Feng had already rejected them once in the past, and yet, they still came right back to him?
However, since Luo Feng already had the assistance of the government officials, there was no need to rely on a private organization.
When it came to cooperation, his first choice would be to work with those at a position of power.
The second choice was to cooperate with whoever he was more comfortable working with.
If the second choice had good looks like Qin Rubing, then all the better.
“Little Luo, I have a friend here who wishes to…”
Luo Feng had received yet another call from the Cultural Relics Bureau.
Naturally, Luo Feng was able to more or less predict what their intentions were.
He was likely calling to help a friend who wished to buy his antiques.
If their intentions were to simply come over and take a look, Luo Feng had no right to stop them. After all, the mountain was not his.
“Well the, Chief Zhang, let me put it this way. As of this moment, I have yet to excavate anything from the tomb! Don’t you think it’s a bit early to discuss such matters? Also, you really shouldn’t be in such a rush to come over. This mountain is located quite a distance away from the county, you know?!”
Luo Feng stated in exasperation.
“I see, no worries then! Also, just a word in advance, the prices that my friend can offer are nothing to scoff at, and I hope that you’ll look forward to it. That’s all for now, until we meet then!”
“Alright, until we meet!”
Immediately after hanging up, Luo Feng received consecutive calls from owners of antique shops.
They were all going on-and-on about having a powerful friend who wishes to buy his wares, and Luo Feng was getting irritated just listening to the repetitiveness of the calls.
…
At this moment… In a bar in Jiangnan, many of the second-generation heirs who had been scared silly by the landmine previously had all gathered together to relax.
There were also a few long-legged beauties in short skirts cradled within their arms.
“Damn! Look guys! Old Luo found something good again!”
“He’s trending!”
Wu Fanyu1 was one of the second-generation heirs, and at this moment, he was staring at the news on the hot search with a dumbfounded look.
A twinge of regret was bubbling up from within him.
“Damn! Is he really on the trending page? Huh! He found an ancient tomb from the Ming dynasty?!”
“It’s a massive ancient tomb too!”
“F*ck! F*ck!”
“Old Luo should’ve told us that he wasn’t dismantling mines this time! Ahh, I didn’t know he was heading to the mountains!”
“That’s right! If I knew that it was safe, I would have gone!
“Safe? Don’t you know that a landslide had occurred at the spot he’s currently at?”
“But it has already happened once. What are the chances that it’ll happen again?”
“That’s right, lightning doesn’t strike twice!”
