    To be honest, Zhang Tie really didn¡¯t have any intention of getting rich while wandering around in those ruins. He was just pretending to be a pioneer for so long. After he really came to these ruins, he came with some curiosity.  , just wanted to see if I could find something.

    If you can find it, that's the best. If you can't find it, that's okay.  Because the process of searching for treasures in the ruins itself has a huge temptation.

    Zhang Tie remembers that when he was working in a grocery store, Tang De would often pile up some random things and put them in piles for sale in the grocery store. Occasionally, he would put one or two items in the pile that were slightly valuable.  It is this kind of business method that makes little money, but it often has unexpected sales results.  Tang De said that this is the fun of Taobao.

    Many times, if something is put in front of you for you to take, you may not be interested. But if it is hidden or you get it unexpectedly, the joy may leave a very deep impression on you.  image.

    The most exciting thing about the pioneer profession, and the most important reason why so many people join it, is the excitement brought by hunting for treasures in the ruins.  This kind of treasure hunt may just allow you to find something worth a few pennies, or it may make you rich overnight. It is precisely because of this uncertainty that it is particularly attractive.

    It¡¯s not like no one has thought about excavating the ruins these days, but if one person does it, there may be no results for months, and most of the supplies brought underground cannot last for such a long time, and if  If there were more people, it would be just a small building between two buildings. It was hard to tell what was inside. The risk would be too great and there would be huge differences of opinion.

    more importantly.  There are many opportunities to get things and make a fortune in this ruins without so much effort, and the city's bank vault has not been discovered yet. At this time, great efforts are being invested in excavating a burial site with uncertain returns.  The small building in the ruins is really a bit silly. Based on the experience of the pioneers, such an important place as the bank vault before the catastrophe would definitely not be in such a small building.

    If it is in the later stage, when there is really not much money to be made in other places, maybe some pioneers will join forces to try, but what about this moment?  Except for Zhang Tie, a stupid young man, few others really want to try to see if they can make a fortune here.

    Looking at Zhang Tie digging there, Sam and Gerry didn't move. It wasn't that they didn't want to move, but the weight and volume of those ruins were often hundreds of kilograms.  Completely beyond their capabilities.

    ¡°And Zhang Tie¡¯s speed is too fast, if the two of them go up.  Not only could it not help Zhang Tie.  On the contrary, it will hinder Zhang Tie's efficiency.

    "Bahbahbah" Because he was unprepared, when the large amount of dust fell, it immediately covered Zhang Tie's head and face. Zhang Tie shook the dust off his hair and backed away.  Spit out the unclean things in your mouth, and then wait for the hole to return to peace.

    It¡¯s only a few dozen seconds later.  The piece of dust became clear.

    The wall where this hole is located is on the second floor of the ruined building. All the floors above the second floor of the ruined building have collapsed.  It turned into a pile of building ruins, and together with other garbage, the entire first to second floors were completely buried. Although the second and first floors were partially damaged and collapsed, almost half of the rooms were not completely affected.  It can be seen that the things in the room are relatively well preserved.

    Seeing the opening of this building, it was like a mysterious door opened by Zhang Tie in a rough and brutal way. It seemed to be full of unspeakable temptations, and the pioneers who were watching around couldn't help but move forward.  Take a step.

    "What, do you want to pick peaches at this time?" Zhang Tie looked at the pioneers with a sneer, and fiercely thrust the five- to six-hundred-kilogram I-beam in front of him like a wooden stake.  among the pile of ruins.

    Zhang Tie exerted great force on his hands, and the three-meter-long I-beam made a pop sound and sank almost a meter into the ground.

    Thinking of the terrifying power Zhang Tie had just shown, the pioneers were startled and stopped for a moment.

    Zhang Tie glanced at the faces of the pioneers with indifferent eyes. Many of these pioneers should have stayed here for a long time and have never returned to the place until now. Therefore, they do not care about it at all.  Know yourself.  Zhang Tie knew very well the virtues of these pioneers. In the face of strong power, these guys would behave well and obey the rules, but in front of the weak, they might become as ferocious as jackals.

    "Sam, Gerry, come here, let's go in together."?Look!  "Seeing that the others were restrained, Zhang Tie waved to Semuyege.

    Sam and Gerry walked over together, both of them wide-eyed. Although they had heard about Zhang Tie's amazing performance on the day when the tribal alliance seized the ruins canyon, because they had never seen it, the two of them were somewhat confused.  Suspect, apart from rushing, they encountered nothing else along the way, and there was no chance for Zhang Tie to show off his skills, so it was not until this moment that the two of them discovered Zhang Tie's terror.

    In the minds of two people, it is absolutely impossible for one person to complete a huge project in four or five hours. Zhang Tie just finished it in front of the two of them. When they think of Zhang Tie's powerful body like a tyrannosaurus,  , both Gerry and Sam felt a little bit like they were in a dream - is this Peter?  Is he the guy who lives in the same cabin with him on the Aurora? It seems that he hasn¡¯t discovered this terrifying power in this guy at that time. Could it be that he has been hiding his clumsiness

    "What level are you?"

    When Gerry opened his mouth, Zhang Tie rolled his eyes. He had no idea how much his performance had stimulated the "young minds" of Sam and Gerry.

    "Does my level matter?" Zhang Tie glanced at the onlookers beside him. He didn't want to make more limelight here. At this moment, even in the tribal alliance, there are almost no people who can really know his level. Aurora  Seton and Seton had always thought he was level nine before, but ever since the death game.  Both of them were a little unsure, and more people regarded Zhang Tie as a five-star strong warrior. Even if they mistakenly thought Zhang Tie was at the combat master level, it was not impossible.

    Zhang Tie¡¯s question made Sam and Gerry look at each other, and then shook their heads at each other.

    "That's it, let's discuss this issue later. Now let's go in together and see what's inside!" Zhang Tie laughed.

    "According to the rules of the pioneers, you opened this place alone. Before you complete the search for this place, neither Gerry nor I can go in!" Sam said honestly.

    "What bullshit rules? We are together. If I let you go in together, are you afraid of what others will say?"

    "It's okay, Sam and I will go in with you to take a look, so that you don't miss anything! I'll do you a favor!" Compared to Sam's honesty.  This guy Gerry is quite clever.

    "Okay, if there is something inside, you can pick one at will. If not, forget it, just go in with me and go shopping!" Zhang Tie said casually.

    Hearing what Zhang Tie said, Sam and Gerry both nodded.

    After taking a final look at the eager pioneers around him, Zhang Tie turned around and walked into the hole he had dug out of the wall with a fluorite lamp in hand.

    The hole is half a person high.  You have to lower your head and bend your waist to walk in.

    Under the green light of the fluorite lamp, everything in the room was coated with a strange green color. Things in the room were already very messy, and there was a thick layer of dust everywhere.  Under Zhang Tie's dark vision, everything in the room was invisible. Except for a few chairs and a broken table, there seemed to be nothing else here, and at the top of the room, a large piece of abrupt and sharp  The ruins of the building smashed through the solid load-bearing floor slab of the roof, and less than half of it penetrated from above, revealing some exposed steel bars.

    From this huge piece of building material, Zhang Tie could imagine what happened here on the day of the catastrophe. Fortunately, the construction quality of this building was not bad. Although the upper building collapsed, the two floors below were fine.

    There was a click, and Zhang Tie lowered his head, only to realize that he had only paid attention to his surroundings, not his feet. In the thick dust under his feet, a body fell to the ground, and the skeleton's hand bones were lifted up.  He broke it with one foot.

    If you are timid, you will almost scream in fright. However, when Zhang Tie looked at the skeleton, he felt like looking at the fossil of an animal, and it could no longer cause the slightest fluctuation in his heart.

    "Wait a minute" Zhang Tiegang wanted to walk away, but found that Gerry had already walked over.  He groped on the ground carefully.

    Zhang Tie saw Gerry groping on the two palms of the skeleton, then picked up a ring with a smile on his face, wiped the ring on his body very skillfully, and then weighed it in front of his eyes.  took a look.

    "Platinum ring, inlaid with diamonds, ha ha good luck!" As he spoke, Gerry handed over the ring.

    This kind of jewelry before the catastrophe is not ordinary, nor is it precious. The price of these jewelry before the catastrophe of the same material and quality can be sold for more than three times the price of jewelry made in this era.?This kind of thing was the most expensive gemstone before the catastrophe, but in this era, with the exploration and development of the inner earth world by humans, a large number of diamonds have been discovered, and the value of diamonds is no longer as outrageous as before the catastrophe.  It can be regarded as an ordinary gem.

    "You take it first, and we'll talk about it at the end!" Zhang Tie said with a smile. Although the value of this ring was not high to him, maybe only a hundred or ten gold coins, Zhang Tie was very happy.

    After carefully searching the room and discovering that there was indeed nothing valuable in the room, the three of them came to another room.

    The door connecting the two rooms only has a metal frame left, and there are large pieces of glass on the ground.

    Like the room Zhang Tie entered just now, the layout of this room is also very simple. There is not much furniture here, and it looks a bit like a high-end business reception place or conference room. There are a few paintings hanging on the walls here, but they are all decayed.  It's unbearable. Like the sofa in the room, its original appearance has long been lost. There are also several items and handicrafts that seemed to have been placed in the room for decoration. They are also scattered on the ground. Many of them have been damaged, but there are still a few pieces.  Special artefacts made of metal have been preserved.

    "Peter, come here and see" Sam's voice already revealed a huge sense of excitement at this time.

    Zhang Tie walked over and found that Sam was holding a one-foot-tall black vase-like thing. He was wiping it with the sleeves of his clothes without any care. As the wiping action accelerated, Sam's face  The movements are getting more and more exciting.

    "It seemsit seems to be something from the East" Sam swallowed hard, and then handed the thing to Gerry, "Take a look"

    "This style is somewhat similar, but I have never encountered such precious goods from the East, so" The grid looked over and over with a solemn look, a little unsure, "And this bottle seems to be made of copper.  But the colors of these patterns are strange, it seems that they are not painted but inlaid, but why are they so flat? It seems to be a special manufacturing process."

    "Let me take a look" Zhang Tie took the vase-like object over and followed Sam's example, wiping it vigorously with the sleeves of his own clothes. Under Zhang Tie's wiping, the vase was  The purple bottle body gradually became clearer. On the bottle body, there was a very bright and prosperous flower pattern. Just above the pattern, a Chinese character "¸£" with a silver metallic luster gradually became clearer.  stand up.

    "This is indeed a work of art from the East" Zhang Tie said to Sam and Gerry with certainty.

    "how do you know?"

    "This is a Chinese font, which means luck, wealth and perfection. It is an auspicious symbol among the Chinese!"

    Hearing what Zhang Tie said, both Gerry and Sam became a little excited.

    "What's wrong?"

    "It's done!"

    "This is just a piece of art. It shouldn't be more valuable than the handicraft you took out last time, right?" Zhang Tie said doubtfully.

    "Don't you know, these artworks from the Eastern Chinese before the great catastrophe are very valuable. If they can be confirmed to be authentic, many wealthy Chinese people are willing to spend a lot of money to buy these things back. This is  The most sought-after items in the cultural relics market and auction houses," Gerry took a deep breath and said to Zhang Tie.

    "Then let's take a look. If we can find a few more, each of you can pick one"

    There are still six rooms upstairs that can be searched. After searching all the rooms upstairs, there are only three vases that seem to be made of the same copper material. They were all found in the same room.  Yes, the three vases have the same style and are well preserved. The Chinese characters left on them are the three words "Fu", "Lu" and "Shou" respectively. They should be a complete set

    Being able to find Chinese cultural relics from before the Catastrophe here. Although I don¡¯t know how much these things can sell for, Zhang Tie is very happy. This is the fun of Taobao.

    After searching the second floor, the three people followed the stairs to the first floor. There were not many rooms on the first floor. It looked like a hall. The situation in the hall was much better than upstairs. Except for some dust, there were very few debris.  , there are rows of counters placed all around the hall. After almost 900 years of changes, those counters are still intact and tightly closed.

    Looking at those counters, Zhang Tie thought of the grocery store he had stayed in. To be fair, even in the past few thousand years, the counters and windows used to display goods in human stores have basically not changed in essence.

    Zhang Tie walked to the counter nearest to him and wiped the thick dust on the counter with his hand.After two clicks, the things inside the counter appeared. Looking at the things on the counter, Zhang Tie opened his mouth in shock

    When he was upstairs, Zhang Tie had some hunch when he saw the three vases with distinctive Chinese cultural characteristics. The boss here might be Chinese or the business here is Chinese. Unexpectedly, it was really  Zhang Tie guessed it right(To be continued)
