"Fusu Ding?"

When the word came out of Mr. Zhou's mouth, all the guests present were slightly taken aback. Clearly, they were very unfamiliar with this name:

"Mr. Zhou, is the Fusu Ding a bronze artifact from the Qin Dynasty era of China? How much is it worth now?"

The gazes of everyone around were focused on Mr. Zhou, waiting for him to clear up their confusion!

Mr. Zhou smiled faintly, pointing to the patterns and decorations on this small bronze tripod, and said:

"The bronzes of the Qin Dynasty have extremely shallow bellies and stout hoof-like legs, pioneering a distinctive style of the Eastern Zhou Qin tripods. The mouth of the gui is slightly convergent, with small ears without pendants, which is the common design of the Qin gui. The decorations mainly consist of stealing curved patterns and scale patterns."

After speaking, Mr. Zhou glanced at Ye Feng with envy and fervor in his eyes:

"Especially in the Qin Dynasty, besides the Imperial Jade Seal of Qin Shi Huang, the Twin Tripods were the most famous! The most crucial point is that the other Hu Hai Ding was already shattered when excavated! So now, the Twin Tripods are only left with this Fusu Ding intact!"

What!

This sentence caused an uproar among the crowd around!

According to Mr. Zhou, the Twin Tripods themselves are the most famous antiques next to the Qin Dynasty's Imperial Jade Seal, and one of them, the Hu Hai Ding, has already been shattered, which means the value of the Fusu Ding will skyrocket!

Thinking of this, the eyes of everyone around once again turned extremely fervent towards Ye Feng, and someone cautiously asked Mr. Zhou:

"Mr. Zhou, based on your experience, if this Fusu Ding was put up for auction, what price could it fetch?"

This question clearly voiced what everyone was thinking. To them, as outsiders, they didn't care much about the history of the Fusu Ding; what mattered most was how much money this antique could fetch at auction!

And Mr. Zhou pondered slightly, then said with a serious expression:

"The last time the shattered Hu Hai Ding was auctioned, it was sold for $35 million to a German collector! And as the Fusu Ding is completely intact, especially with it being the only complete piece among the Twin Tripods, its value will rise sharply!"

At this point, Mr. Zhou paused slightly:

"Based on my judgment, this complete Fusu Ding could fully reach a sky-high price of nearly $100 million at auction!"

Boom!

Mr. Zhou's words left everyone in the place somewhat dumbfounded!

A shattered Hu Hai Ding could be auctioned for 35 million USD, which is an extremely high price close to one billion Huaxia Coins!

And the value of the intact Fusu Ding is several times that of the shattered Hu Hai Ding, approaching a hundred million USD, which is several billion Huaxia Coins, an absolute sky-high price among sky-high prices!

They could not imagine that Ye Feng not only found an antique from the seabed but also a sky-high priced antique!

At this moment, the entire crowd was in an uproar, wildly surrounding Ye Feng, chattering noisily!

Among them, some congratulated Ye Feng, while others inquired about purchasing the Fusu Ding, hoping to take this opportunity to connect with Ye Feng!

And most of them were trying their best to flatter him, as if they had always known Ye Feng could find such treasures, with fervent expressions on their faces!

Meanwhile, beside them, Prime Minister Chen Song, though silent, was undoubtedly shaken to the core!

At this point, looking at Ye Feng, his gaze was truly like looking at an Immortal!

After all, this was under the sea, where even with top detection devices and instruments, it might not have been possible to find this antique.

Yet Ye Feng pinpointed the exact location of the antique without even diving into the seawater. The shock from this was beyond everyone's imagination!

"Ye... Ye Feng, how… how did you do it?"

Prime Minister Chen Song's eyes were filled with tremendous shock as he looked at Ye Feng sitting calmly beside him, trembling as he asked!

Ye Feng merely shrugged, with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, looking at Prime Minister Chen Song:

"There are three kinds of people in this world! One kind is ghosts, another is humans, and the third kind is Gods! Without a doubt, I am the latter, a God!"

Listening to such audacious and self-aggrandizing words, Prime Minister Chen Song's mouth twitched, his expression a bit peculiar!

Although he knew Ye Feng was joking, at this very moment, he couldn't help but feel that Ye Feng was right; the man really resembled a divine being!

Subsequently, Mr. Zhou once again began to wipe clean the remaining muddied clumps!

As Mr. Zhou wiped off the second artifact, it turned out to be a set of heavy bronze armor, characterized by a simple yet majestic appearance, with a heavy air of slaughter emanating from it, making everyone around shudder!

"The craftsmanship of this armor is much more intricate than that of previously unearthed Qin Dynasty armors! And judging by the decorations and engraved patterns on it, it is evidently the armor of a king! It should be worth around 60 million USD!"

After carefully examining this set of heavy armor, Mr. Zhou informed everyone, then proceeded to wipe clean the third artifact!

By the time the third muddied clump was wiped off, it turned out to be a crown!

However, this crown was somewhat damaged, and Mr. Zhou couldn't help but shake his head, stating:

"This crown should be the ancient Four Phoenix Facing the Sun Crown. Unfortunately, of the four phoenixes cast on its four corners, two have already been damaged! Otherwise, this crown could fetch a sky-high price of seventy to eighty million USD at auction; now, it can only go for about 40 million!"

Mr. Zhou sighed, placed the crown down, and then proceeded to wipe clean the fourth artifact!

The fourth artifact turned out to be a Luminous Pearl about the size of a fist, estimated by Mr. Zhou to be worth around 10 million USD!

As all four artifacts were unveiled, the total value had already reached as much as 200 million USD, heightening everyone's anticipation to the extreme, as they looked toward the fifth muddied clump, eager to know the value of this final artifact!

Not just the people around, but Ye Feng also fixed his gaze on the fifth muddied clump!

Earlier, through the ant queen and a dozen ant kings, he had become fully aware of the first four artifacts, but he didn't know what this fifth artifact was!

At this moment, Ye Feng's gaze was filled with intense anticipation, and the surrounding people held their breaths, quietly waiting!

Under the tense watchful eyes of everyone, Mr. Zhou took a deep breath, then began to slowly wipe clean the fifth muddied clump with the cloth in his hand!

As the mud slowly fell away, the crowd could only feel their hearts pounding wildly!

The most thrilling part of treasure-hunting isn't the treasure itself but the process of discovering and unveiling the treasure!

This process can quicken the heartbeat, rapidly increase adrenaline secretion, excite people, and become addictive!

And just as everyone was watching, Mr. Zhou had already wiped clean the fifth muddied clump!

But contrary to everyone's expectations, it was a moss-covered, rust-encrusted bronze box!

This box was only about the size of a book, but as Mr. Zhou carefully examined it, he immediately exclaimed in surprise:

"Wow? The sealing of this box is incredibly good! You can't find a single seam from the outside!"

Mr. Zhou searched, but couldn't find a lock or even the slightest seam on the box!

However, soon enough, Mr. Zhou found a bronze secret compartment under the box, and he immediately asked everyone to step back a little. Only then did he press the secret compartment, and the bronze box sprang open!

Upon seeing the contents of the bronze box, a slight look of disappointment appeared on the faces of everyone around!

However, upon seeing the items inside, Ye Feng's whole body trembled, and his expression changed drastically!
