Chapter 2952 The Complete Library of the Four Treasuries and the Yongle Encyclopedia!
Chapter 2952 The Complete Library of the Four Treasuries and the Yongle Encyclopedia!
When this bronze door was first discovered, and it could only be opened with four small bowls, everyone assumed that it contained gold and silver treasures.
Even Wang Yue thought so.
After all, Heshen was still a corrupt official, and there was no other place in his secret treasury besides this.
What was unexpected was that the entire vault was filled with books, all kinds of books!
Seeing this, Wang Yue couldn't help but think of a possibility!
Could the Siku Quanshu (Complete Library of the Four Treasuries) and the Yongle Encyclopedia be included?
Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed possible. After all, Heshen's family followed the Manchu Qing dynasty in its conquest of the country, so it was very possible that they could obtain it.
It should be noted that although Heshen was a corrupt official, he was also known for his extensive knowledge and learning.
Even Emperor Qianlong knew that Heshen was a corrupt official, yet he still instructed his son not to kill Heshen on his deathbed, which shows that Heshen was truly a man of great talent!
A so-called talented person needs to have enough books to show off their talent, and Heshen certainly didn't lack books to read.
The problem is that Heshen was able to keep Emperor Qianlong happy; if he were only good at reading books, he certainly wouldn't have been able to do that.
So what could be more suitable than having the Yongle Encyclopedia at home?
Moreover, Heshen preserved these books so that if any of his descendants came and opened the cave, they could ensure the family's rise once again.
Han Chunming and the other archaeologists didn't realize it at first, but when they went inside and found that it was a series of bookshelves, they realized it too.
Looking at the bookshelves, Han Chunming asked Wang Yue with some uncertainty,
"Old Wang, have we gotten ourselves into trouble?"
Han Chunming meant that if all the books on the bookshelf were paper copies, and they suddenly opened the cave and let in oxygen, wouldn't that destroy the books?
Wang Yue had also thought of this, and he quickly said, "Bring the camera and our special glue, and try to preserve it as perfectly as possible."
Han Chunming stopped going in and quickly notified the others to bring the supplies with them.
To ensure the books were not damaged, Wang Yue and his team all wore protective suits, and they couldn't even breathe directly into the cave.
Meanwhile, the sealing equipment that had been prepared at the cave entrance quickly sealed the cave again to prevent a large amount of oxygen from entering.
After they were ready, Wang Yue and Han Chunming led a group of people back into the cave.
In fact, Wang Yue was right; the Yongle Encyclopedia and the Siku Quanshu were indeed inside.
So, Wang Yue and his team then began the busy process of sorting and collecting information.
Fortunately, Wang Yue knew that this world had developed many materials for preserving ancient books for archaeological research, and that the cave was sealed in time after they opened it, so it did not have too bad an impact.
Of course, the most important thing is that the books inside this treasure cave had each page coated with a thin layer of wax, which preserved them in the cold cave and prevented any accidents from happening.
As a result, the news of the sudden appearance of the complete Yongle Encyclopedia and the Siku Quanshu spread like wildfire, and even CCTV sent people to broadcast it live.
It's important to understand that the country has developed very rapidly in the last ten years or so, and the tendency to worship foreign things and fawn over foreigners that hadn't even been cultivated before was directly nipped in the bud.
National pride is now in the hearts of every citizen, so the appearance of the Siku Quanshu (Complete Library of the Four Treasuries) and the Yongle Encyclopedia has caused a great stir.
Many people are very curious about why Europe suddenly rose to prominence in the last few centuries, considering that it had been suppressed and beaten by the Persians for so long before, let alone surpassed the East!
The Yongle Encyclopedia solved this case!
The complete Yongle Encyclopedia not only contains various machines, but also showcases how advanced the technology of the Ming Dynasty was.
The discovery of Heshen's secret treasure made Wang Yue and Han Chunming instant figures in the domestic archaeological community. Even the ragpicker Hou and Grandpa Guan, who donated the small bowl, were presented with banners and became celebrities in the antique circle.
However, after hearing about this, two people couldn't sit still: Guan's father and Guan's mother.
Originally, after receiving the banner, Grandpa Guan was very happy and immediately moved in with Wang Yue. Every day, he would wait for Wang Yue to get off work so that he could have a drink with the two of them.
Of course, the ragpicker Hou would also join in the fun.
Actually, because Wang Yue is coming back quite late these days, at first, the two of them, Broken-Scrap Hou and Grandpa Guan, could chat. But when Wang Yue came back, the three of them talked about the aftermath of Heshen's treasure.
But as the news spread, Mr. and Mrs. Guan unexpectedly returned to their home, which they hadn't visited in a long time. As soon as Mr. Guan entered the house and saw the three people drinking, he immediately asked with displeasure,
"Dad, do you know how expensive your bowls are? I heard that if you sold them, one of them could fetch a hundred or two hundred million!"
Such a big thing, and you just donated it without even saying anything?
Grandpa Guan was in a good mood when he suddenly heard his son say this, and he immediately understood that his son was a little reluctant to part with those treasures.
But he knew his own son well; he wasn't always like this. Grandpa Guan snorted coldly.
"Alright, don't you have enough money right now? My granddaughter doesn't need your money at all, so why are you eyeing this antique coin?"
When Guan's father heard his father say this, he was speechless. He was actually a person who was content with his lot and had long felt that he was living a good life. Moreover, Guan Xiaoguan didn't need them to spend money at all, and having extra money was useless.
But Guan's father doesn't need it, while his wife, Yu Jinxian, does.
Yu Jinxian's family was not well-off; their situation only improved after she married Guan's father.
Of course, the reason why Yu Jinxian married Guan's father was because Guan's father and his family were relatively well-off. As soon as she was allowed to go abroad, she encouraged Guan's father to go abroad with her.
If it weren't for Wang Yue's appearance, Guan Xiaoguan, who originally planned to go abroad with him, would have gone abroad as well, leaving only Grandpa Guan in the country.
Therefore, by that time, Grandpa Guan already knew that his son was a hopeless case, so he had no hope at all.
Fortunately, Guan Xiaoguan stayed in China because of Wang Yue, which prevented Grandpa Guan from being too miserable and also prevented Guan Xiaoguan from being too affected by her mother.
But Mr. Guan was different. He was greatly influenced by Yu Jinxian, so when he heard Grandpa Guan say that, he spoke with righteous indignation.
"Dad, who would complain about having too much money? Look at what you've done! Over a hundred million, and you only got a banner in return? This deal is such a huge loss!"
Seeing that his son was still so confused, Grandpa Guan said with great dissatisfaction, "Then tell me, what do you need so much money for?"
Mr. Guan was speechless. He really didn't need the money, since Yu Jinxian was the one who was making the money for his business.
Seeing how useless her husband was and how quickly he was manipulated, Yu Jinxian, though unwilling to intervene, couldn't care less at this point and had no choice but to bite the bullet and say...
"Dad, who would complain about having too much money? Besides, our family needs a lot of funds."
Mr. Guan nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right! We've been looking to buy a piece of land for our business recently, but we don't have enough cash on hand."
Hearing her father say this, Guan Xiaoguan retorted with dissatisfaction, "Dad, do you even believe what you're saying? And is this business even ours? Aren't you making money all for my uncle's family?"
Mr. Guan had already been coaxed by Yu Jinxian into thinking that it was the right thing to do, so he immediately scolded Guan Xiaoguan, saying, "Guan Guan, we're all family, why are you being so formal? Besides, your uncle loves you so much, he buys you gifts every time he sees you, you should always have some conscience when you do things."
When Guan Xiaoguan heard this, he felt that his father was completely dumbfounded. He said with great dissatisfaction, "Putting aside the little gift he gave me, he always takes more things with him when he leaves."
Besides, Ah Yue and I have been helping my uncle a lot with his business lately, isn't that enough?
Furthermore, Grandpa was having a happy meal together, and you deliberately came over because of this, just to make him unhappy. Do you think what you did was right?
Mr. Guan, however, said with great incomprehension, "What's so great about donating antiques worth over 100 million?"
"Your grandfather is senile, how come you're senile too?"
Grandpa Guan's face turned red with anger, and Wang Yue quickly went over to soothe him before looking at Yu Jinxian and saying, "Mother-in-law, the Yu family's standard of living has risen more than one level because of the Guan family. We have become a prominent family in Yu Family Fort. Why are you still not satisfied?"
If the Yu family feels they're living too well right now, I wouldn't mind completely blacklisting them.
Wang Yue has always kept a low profile. Moreover, although Future Technology is a technology giant, it mainly provides technical support. In addition, the higher-ups intentionally kept a low profile, so apart from industry insiders, few people know that Future Technology is the core of China's technology.
So, on the surface, Future Technology is just an ordinary technology company that sells battery technology, and compared to some real estate companies, it doesn't seem to have much of a reputation.
Guan Xiaoguan knew what kind of personality her mother had, so she didn't talk much to her parents. This led to Yu Jinxian looking down on Wang Yue more and more, since, on the surface, the Yu family's business was bigger than the Wang family's.
So, upon hearing Wang Yue's words, Yu Jinxian immediately retorted with dissatisfaction, "Little Yue, why are you spouting such nonsense? I admit you're quite famous in the antique industry, but you're still far behind in real estate. If you're so capable, why don't you make the Yu family go bankrupt and show me?"
