Chapter 310 I Picked Up a Lost Loot in Ancient Times

"After Governor Zhang came, he replanned Wangjing City. Now there is a large market near the north and south gates, and there are many inns."

“The north-south roads were also widened and repaired.”

Chen Xi was selecting items in front of a dough figurine stall. Yao Jun was standing behind her, looking at her lovingly, and she could hear Chen Huaming's explanation in her ears.

Although Yao Jun had asked someone to investigate these things when he came last time, he now has a deeper understanding after visiting the place in person and listening to the explanations.

Chen Xi quickly picked out two strange-shaped dough figurines, which looked very similar to the bronze standing figures unearthed from Sanxingdui. They were covered with a layer of honey and were edible.

Although Chen Xi rarely leaves his house in modern times, he has been to Sanxingdui. So when he saw these small dough figurines, he immediately became interested and bought two.

Yao Jun took her hand and continued to stroll, looking at the bustling market, and said, "Zhang Taishou is very talented and courageous."

Chen Huaming quickly glanced at Chen Xi. When he heard a few days ago that Gongzi Jun was going to bring a branch girl named Chen Xi back to Yao Country, he thought it was a girl with the same name and surname.

When I saw her today, I realized that it was indeed her, my great-grandfather's granddaughter and also his niece.

Chen Huaming's father and Grandpa Chen are brothers. They originally led an ordinary life, but Chen Huaming met the prefect Zhang, which gave him the platform to display his talents.

Many renovations in today's Wangjing City are based on his suggestions, especially the construction near the market, which was entirely created by him.

Chen Huaming also has a very high emotional intelligence. He never talks about these things in public, but attributes all of them to Prefect Zhang. Not to mention outsiders, sometimes even Prefect Zhang himself is a little confused.

So even though Chen Huaming is just an ordinary scholar-official, he is actually the real confidant of Magistrate Zhang, the kind that is well-connected to him.

Moreover, the two of them have a very close relationship and Chen Huaming has been grateful to Chen Huaming for his help. Chen Huaming has also done his best and is grateful.

If you have talent in your belly, you will naturally be brilliant.

Although the man in front of him is the world-famous Gongzijun, Chen Huaming is able to advance and retreat with ease, neither humble nor arrogant. This is the confidence and integrity that his ability has given him!

"Zhang Taishou has made great contributions over the years, and the king has long wanted to call him back to his side, but he likes to make friends regardless of status, which is not liked by others, so he has never been able to do so."

Yao Jun glanced at him and said, "He's a wonderful person."

Then he looked away, his gaze fell on a stall selling curios, and asked, "Zhang Taishou is indeed talented and knowledgeable. He is well connected with the government and knows how to use people. He also accepts honest advice."

Chen Xi also saw those novel things. He picked up two dough figurines with their heads missing, trotted over with his mouth puffing, and started picking them out.

Within a few dozen meters around Yao Jun and the other two, everyone except the stall owners and vendors had been cleared out, and the golden-armored guards followed closely behind.

So Yao Jun doesn't have to worry about the little girl's safety, and with him by her side, no one can hurt her at all. He has the confidence.

Yao Jun continued to talk to Chen Huaming: "However...I think that although Governor Zhang is capable, he is not very proficient in business affairs. What do you think, Doctor Chen?"

Chen Huaming's mind moved slightly. Everyone knows that Gongzijun loves talents and will provide them with ample platforms to display their talents. Every ambitious person wants to work under him.

But Chen Huaming thought about the wasted years and realized that it was Governor Zhang who gave him a chance, which enabled him to get his current position.

How can I not repay such a kindness?

After thinking it through, Chen Huaming smiled and said, "I don't have much opinion. I'm just a minor official under the governor."

Yao Jun exclaimed: "Doctor Chen is too modest."

Then the topic changed and stopped talking about this, and asked, "Doctor Chen know Xiaoxi?"

Chen Huaming looked hesitant, not knowing whether he should say it or not.

Although he had never concealed this matter from anyone and his family had never owed his great-grandfather's family anything, so he naturally did not feel guilty, but he did not want to rely on nepotism to climb up the ladder.

After thinking it over, Chen Huaming said, "Your Highness, let's not talk about this today. How about I take you to have a good look at Wangjing today?"

Hearing this, Yao Jun turned his head and looked at Chen Huaming, sizing him up carefully and saw that his eyes were clear, restrained and open.

Yao Jun nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Since we know each other, why hide it?"

Then he shouted to Chen Xi, "Xiao Xi, since grandpa mentioned Doctor Chen, why don't you introduce him to me?"

"Wait a minute!"

Chen Xi looked at the antiques on the stall with a look of curiosity on his face. He was asking the stall owner when these things were made and how could he not allow anyone to disturb him.

The stall owners were very nervous at this time. They, the vendors, had been notified in advance and knew that Young Master Jun was coming.

Originally he was not nervous, he just wanted to see something new. After all, the things he sold were all old stone tools and some gold fragments, so how could he be favored by Young Master?

Who would have thought that although Young Master was not interested, the girl next to him became interested in him and asked all kinds of questions, like a truly curious baby.

Although the stall owner didn't know what happened in the capital, he could see how much Young Master loved this little girl. How could he not be nervous?

Afraid of death!

Chen Xi's attention was focused on the antiques on the stall, and he didn't notice that the stall owner was about to cry and kept asking questions.

She picked up a stone with a black figure painted on it and asked, "When was this made? Where did you get it from?"

The stall owner felt bitter, but he had to keep a smile on his face, "I got this from the mountain people. It should be hundreds of years old. I don't know exactly when it was obtained."

Hundreds of years before Daji, wasn’t that Xuanzeng?

Chen Xi recalled the antiquities from the Xuanzeng period that he had seen before, and felt that this stone did not look like the original. Could it be from the Daqiu period or even earlier?

Thinking of this, Chen Xi became excited instantly. If this thing were brought to modern times, it would be worth a few peanuts!

Putting the stone next to him and preparing to pay for it later, Chen Xi picked up a piece of gold fragment and said that it was a gold artifact, but it was actually a modern bronze artifact.

The fragment should have come from a tripod. There was a Ding character on it. Chen Xi didn't know what it meant, but it looked very exquisite, so he asked, "This is very new, where did you get it from?"

The stall owner started crying: "This...I bought this from someone else, I don't know where it came from."

"You dare to take it without knowing where it comes from? You are really brave."

Chen Xi muttered something, looked at the fragments of gold twice, and threw it back, not wanting to buy it anymore.

It's not modern times now, there are a lot of things like this, it's not surprising.

Just as she picked up another piece of animal bone with oracle bone inscriptions on it and asked about it, Yao Jun came over, took the bone from her hand, looked at it for a few seconds, and casually threw it on the stall.

"This is fake, please look at something else."

Chen Xi was shocked. There are people in Daji who make fake antiques?

Yao Jun picked up a stone ball, played with it in his hands, and explained: "It is used for sacrifice and divination. It is not only Xuanzeng who has it. The words on the animal bone are all wrong."

"It was probably some rural wizard who did it."

"Do you know the characters of Jia...Xuan Zeng?"

Chen Xi was very surprised. No matter whether it was Yao Jun or Bai Meng, how did they know the oracle bone script? And they knew at a glance that the characters on the animal bone were written wrong.

At this time, hundreds of years had passed since the Xuanzeng period, and Daji no longer used oracle bone inscriptions. Nowadays, there are very few people who can recognize oracle bone inscriptions.

Yao Jun smiled evilly: "Of course I know him."

Chen Xi was full of admiration: "Why do you know him?"

Yao Jun: "Guess?"

Chen Xi pouted and said coquettishly: "Tell me!"

Yao Jun leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I'll tell you tonight."

"I don't want to know anymore!"

Chen Xi blushed, picked up the stone with the black man painted on it, turned around and left.

I didn't even give any money, so the stall owner didn't dare to ask for it. But someone will pay the bill later, and Gongzijun can't just take it away by force, right?

Bad guy, thinking about those things every day!

Chen Xi muttered to himself.

At this moment, a sound of breaking through the air was heard, and a short crossbow arrow shot towards Chen Xi's calf from below.
