Getting the best from Tarkov
Chapter 18 Discovering New Laws in the System
After tidying up the warehouse, Liao Fan and Ermao continued to play a few more games.
I guess all my good luck for the day was used up in the first game. In the following games, I was either sanctioned by the big brother of technology or my birthplace was too far away from the sanatorium.
In the end, all these games ended up with a break-even situation.
After finishing the last game, Liao Fan felt a little tired.
He is different from Ermao, he came in person.
Although he only played the game for one afternoon, it felt like several days had passed.
Unable to bear it any longer, Liao Fan decisively chose to run away.
After leaving the live broadcast room, Liao Fan returned to the real world, and as usual, he felt an unbearable pain.
When the pain subsided, Liao Fan first sold all 20 vases and 17 teapots, and then miraculously discovered that a complete set of blue and white porcelain tea sets appeared in the transformed space.
There are 8 tea cans, 4 small tea cups, and 1 teapot. The tea cans are engraved with the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, while the tea cups are depicted with the Chinese characters "Fu, Lu, Shou, and Xi". As for the teapot, it is much simpler, with only a dragon coiled around it.
By now, Liao Fan has discovered the system's small patterns again.
It seems that if you convert a teapot or vase individually, only one will appear, and the actual value will always be unstable; but if you convert in batches, the value will slowly increase with the total number of props converted, at least there will be no stainless steel teapots, glass vases, etc.
The most infuriating thing is that a few days ago, Liao Fan sold antique books and turned them into several exercise books.
Looking at the words "Five Years of High School Entrance Examination, Three Years of Simulation" on the cover, Liao Fan felt terrible.
This time, I guess they sold a lot at once. After all, it was 20 vases and 17 teapots, which turned out to be a complete blue and white porcelain tea set. And judging by the inscription on the bottom, it seems to be... "Made in the Chenghua Period of the Ming Dynasty"... Well, it turned out to be a complete Chenghua porcelain set. I guess this time it will sell for six or seven figures.
After placing the blue and white porcelain tea set properly on the bed, Liao Fan sold 15 antique books in the warehouse at once.
Looking at the 15 volumes of ancient books taken out from the conversion space, Liao Fan was a little stunned.
He is now proficient in six languages: Chinese, English, Japanese, Russian, Spanish and Arabic, but he cannot recognize the words written in this book.
Could it be that another amazing treasure was revealed to him?
Driven by curiosity, Liao Fan took a picture of the cover of the first of the 15 books with his mobile phone. After searching on the Internet, he was so scared that he almost threw his phone away.
This seems to be a really amazing treasure.
You know, no one in the world knows where the original version of this collection of poems is, but it was actually brought out by the system.
I'm afraid the world is going to change.
Looking at the 15 books on the table, gently stroking the covers of the books, opening the covers, and feeling the unique texture of the parchment, Liao Fan was shocked.
This is Metamorphoses. Ovid's Metamorphoses.
If things of this level can be produced, then wouldn't it be possible for the original versions of Chinese history such as "The Book of Changes", "The Yongle Encyclopedia", and even the Four Books and Five Classics to reappear in the world?
If the complete set of blue and white porcelain tea set is simply very expensive, then this set of "Metamorphosis" is a priceless treasure. How much is it worth?
No, this book is an antique from Europe. Although China now admires this kind of European-style antiques, it is not a local treasure after all, so it is somewhat underestimated. If I find someone to sell it directly, it will be difficult to explain its origin.
If that's the case, why not just barter?
It seems that there are many ancient Chinese treasures in the British Museum and the Louvre.
Hehehe, I'll see if you guys decide to exchange them then! Although 15 books are considered a set, that's not how it's calculated here. Does this mean I can exchange them for 15 items?
By the way, I have to set up a property in Hong Kong, so I can’t bring these things back directly.
It’s not that Liao Fan has no patriotism, but even though he is just an ordinary person at the bottom of society, he has some understanding of the faces of those officials.
Haven't there been a lot of cases of embezzlement in recent years? It's unbelievable that even items from the Palace Museum are appearing on Carlsberg.
After staring at the 15 ancient books and grinning foolishly for more than 10 minutes, Liao Fan finally calmed down his inner excitement.
The most important thing now is to find a place to store these books.
It’s definitely not safe to keep it at home. I guess I have to go to the bank and open a safe.
Anyway, outsiders can't see anything about these things.
The next day, Liao Fan got up early at dawn. Today was Sunday, and he didn't know whether the bank could operate normally today.
After having a simple breakfast downstairs in the community, Liao Fan bought a morning newspaper directly from the newsstand at the entrance of the community, and also bought two activated carbon bags at the supermarket downstairs.
As soon as I got home, I wrapped "The Metamorphosis" in newspaper, and then took out the Hebrew handwritten Bible and did the same thing.
After wrapping the books, Liao Fan took out a small schoolbag that he hadn't used for a long time, put the books and activated carbon bag in it, and went straight to the Bank of China building near the company.
Originally, Liao Fan thought that his outfit of a white T-shirt and jeans, which was so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary, might not be taken seriously at first.
As soon as I entered, when the front desk girl learned that I wanted to rent a safe, she immediately and actively took me around the hall.
Think about it, this is not a cool novel, so why would there be so many idiots eager to make the protagonist slap him in the face?
They are all adults. If she really acts contemptuously, Liao Fan probably won't even have to do anything herself, the bank's lobby manager will fire her.
Because it was a safe rental business, there was a dedicated salesperson following him almost throughout the entire process. The advantage of having someone to guide him was that all the procedures were completed in less than an hour, and Liao Fan saw his own small safe drawer in a VIP meeting room.
After seeing the entourage leave the room, Liao Fan took the matching key to open the small safe, carefully placed the two sets of books in, and then stuffed two activated carbon bags into the gap. After thinking for a while, he put 20 gold coins in as well.
The function of the activated carbon bag needs no explanation, and this gold coin is the "GP coin" in the world of Tarkov.
When Liao Fan got it for the first time, he sold it directly to the aunt, hoping to see if he could exchange it for something interesting.
Unexpectedly, the system was extremely simple and crude. One GP coin could be directly exchanged for a 30g 999 pure gold coin with the GP logo printed on it.
If it is 30 grams, according to the current gold price, it is worth about yuan.
As for why gold coins are placed, the only reason is to leave some hard currency with a high value preservation rate in case of emergency.
After dealing with the problem with the safe, Liao Fan returned home, took out the blue and white porcelain tea set, and took a taxi directly to Duobao Pavilion.
Seeing Liao Fan coming to her house, Feng Caier just thought he was free, after all, today was Sunday.
However, when he saw the black plastic bag and box in Liao Fan's hand, he felt a little uneasy.
It's only been a short time. He doesn't have anything to sell again, does he? Where did this kid find so many treasures?
Feng Caier carefully examined the white-glazed porcelain vase last time and found that it had indeed been preserved from generation to generation and was not dug out from the ground.
But this is even stranger.
If Liao Fan had found it from the ground, that would explain the origin, but now it has made the matter confusing.
Sure enough, when Feng Caier saw Liao Fan taking things out of the bag one by one, her guess was completely confirmed.
Still familiar packaging, still familiar formula.
At this time, the two of them were sitting in a reception room nearby, and on the table was the tea that the waitress had just brought.
Looking at the things wrapped in newspapers on the table in front of her, Feng Caier was a little confused.
Why so many?
There were things scattered all over the table, big and small. The big ones were as big as tea cans, and the small ones were only the size of tea bowls. It couldn't be...
Thinking of the guesses deep in her heart, Feng Caier became a little excited.
Liao Fan didn't keep the secret and directly pushed aside the layers of newspapers one by one.
When Feng Caier saw the object wrapped in the newspaper, she even stopped breathing.
With trembling hands, he took out a pair of white gloves from the inside pocket of his shirt and took a long time to put them on.
I took a few deep breaths silently and secretly told myself to stay calm. I had seen all kinds of big scenes before.
After finally calming down, Feng Caier returned to her calm expression as when they first met, and she seemed to be indifferent to everything.
Feng Caier gently picked up the jars, cups and pots on the table in front of her, carefully examined the patterns and paintings on them, and looked at the inscriptions on the bottom one by one. She pondered for a long time.
At this moment, he was having a fierce ideological struggle in his heart.
Should I tell the truth?
The man in front of him didn't look like he came from such a wealthy family. Perhaps he had just been picking up the scum both times. If he could just fool him, he could make millions in profit.
But if he finds out, then the feud between us will be complete.
Although there are some eye-catching sayings in this industry, they are based on the situation of one-time transactions.
Among colleagues, except for those who really make mistakes, few do so intentionally to make more money.
Just when she made up her mind to use her vast knowledge to trick Liao Fan, she suddenly remembered the aura he exuded when she first met him, and the pair of eyes that she would never forget.
The words that were about to come out of her mouth were swallowed back by her and turned into another sentence.
"It's a nice Chenghua porcelain, and it's blue and white. And the most rare thing is that this is a complete set. The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Fortune, Longevity and Happiness, every one is missing, and each one is preserved so beautifully. I can see that they put a lot of thought into the storage.
I won't show off to you anymore. The condition is so perfect, it's obviously the real thing and there's nothing to complain about.
But to be honest, I don't have that much cash on hand right now. If you're willing to barter, that's easy. Otherwise, I can only choose consignment. But I can guarantee that I can find a suitable buyer for you as quickly as possible."
After hearing Feng Caier's words, Liao Fan frowned. Could it be that this thing is more valuable than he thought?
Logically speaking, if it's worth hundreds of thousands, this store cannot be unable to come up with it. Since the other party said so, it proves that the value of this thing is at least seven figures.
As to whether it starts with 1 or higher, Liao Fan didn't dare to guess.
But since the boss lady said so, he didn't bother to find fault and nodded reluctantly.
Seeing Liao Fan agreed, Feng Caier was immediately delighted. She didn't even have time to ask someone to put the things in the safe. She took out her cell phone and made a call.
"Hey, Yunong, do you remember the fine blue and white porcelain you asked me to help you look out for last month?"
. . .
"Yes, just come to the store. The people and things are all here. But be prepared. If you want to buy something this time, you're going to have to spend a lot of money."
. . .
"Okay, we'll wait for you then."
Liao Fan was a little confused when he heard what Feng Caier said.
