At this mont, Ling Chen stood there, unable to take his eyes off them, almost with little stars in his eyes. For a martial artist, these are priceless treasures, things that can’t be bought with money. Now, so many martial arts secrets are laid out in front of him, allowing him to choose at will. If he wants, he can take these precious martial arts secrets away. As for Lin Qiqi, it’s believed she won’t stop him.
"Let’s go."
Lin Qiqi’s voice ca through, and Ling Chen finally snapped out of the martial arts secrets, turned his head and asked, "Where to?"
"This is just a part of what the Ling Family has collected, there are many more such things, I’ll take you to see them." With that, Lin Qiqi straightforwardly headed toward the other end of the basent. Soon, the two arrived before a large locked door.
Next to the door, a password lock was installed, Lin Qiqi entered a six-digit password, and the door opened promptly.
Following Lin Qiqi’s footsteps, Ling Chen passed through the door, his eyes imdiately widened. If the previously collected books were priceless treasures, then this room was filled completely with treasures of value.
Gold, jewelry, ceramics, and jade from various eras, dazzling, making one overwheld.
This... even Ling Chen, who’s quite wealthy, was deeply shocked by the treasures inside.
It’s estimated that adding up all his assets wouldn’t compare to the treasures in this room. Although he’s an amateur in collecting, Ling Chen knows the price of these items to so extent. If it were placed in an auction, any ceramic or jade here could be auctioned for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars.
Moreover, a corner of the room piled with a large amount of gold. Ling Chen casually picked up a gold bar, which was carved with the era and bank’s mark, this gold was at least a few hundred years old, probably passed down from the Ling family’s ancestors.
Besides the value of the gold itself, the historical value among them is also imasurable.
Ling Chen checked them one by one, not only were there precious collections, but also many swords and weapons. Being stored by the Ling Family here indicates that these weapons are not ordinary.
"Why didn’t the Ling Family move these away?" Ling Chen asked curiously.
"These are things left by the ancestors, they have been stored here for many years. The Ling Family regards this place as a backup asure; if anything happens to the Ling Family, these treasures are enough for the Ling Family to rise again. You saw when you ca in, this place is full of chanisms, very few outsiders can enter without permission. Also, not many Ling Family mbers know about this place, I’m one of them, and I was instructed to guard these things."
So that’s it! Ling Chen finally understood.
Lin Qiqi’s task is to guard these treasures, so she has access to this place.
"This is the Ling Family’s fallback; by telling you this place, it ans cutting off the Ling Family’s retreat." Lin Qiqi looked at Ling Chen and asked, "Do you understand my aning?"
Ling Chen nodded, how could he not understand Lin Qiqi’s aning? This is revenge! Because the Ling Family killed Lin Guodong, so Lin Qiqi wants revenge.
"Take away anything you fancy, how you handle the rest is up to you."
"Miss Lin, if you want to break free from the Ling Family, perhaps I can help you. Although the Ling Family planted a chip in you, I can find soone to help you remove it."
"No need." Lin Qiqi replied coldly, "I’ve thought it through, you don’t need to worry about ." After a pause, Lin Qiqi switched the topic, "Leave your phone number with , I’ll notify you if anything happens in the future."
After rembering the phone number, Lin Qiqi also told Ling Chen the password for the entire basent’s access, then left him with a "handle it as you wish" and departed alone.
"Tang Yuan, where are you?"
At this ti, Tang Yuan’s voice ca through the earpiece.
"I’m in the Ling Family’s basent, there’s a great discovery here. How are things on your side?"
"Nearly settled, caught quite a few, a couple escaped. Hey! Where’s the basent? I’ll co to you."
"Hold on, I’ll co et with you." Ling Chen said. Without the basent’s password, Tang Yuan couldn’t enter this place at all.
Before leaving, Ling Chen didn’t forget to take sothing with him. It’s a rare opportunity like this, not getting so benefits would be too bad for himself.
Arriving at the Ling Family courtyard, he saw more than twenty people crouching in the spacious yard, including security and Ling Family mbers, all were controlled by Pang Jiulin and his people.
"Instructor Pang, well done!" Ling Chen walked over with a smile, giving a thumbs up, "You can go back and claim credit upstairs this ti."
"Where did you just disappear to? Didn’t see anyone, I was counting on you to help ."
Ling Chen smiled embarrassedly and said, "Instructor Pang, I found sothing even more significant." Initially, Ling Chen thought of keeping it all to himself, anyone would be tempted by such a massive fortune. Especially since this wealth is unknown to the governnt, and it’s private property of the Ling Family, even if taken, no one would know.
However, after a struggle in his mind, Ling Chen decided to hand these treasures over to the country.
In any case, he doesn’t lack money, and he also wants to maintain good relations with the governnt. After all, there are many tis where he’ll need the governnt’s help in the future.
Led by Ling Chen, Pang Jiulin and Tang Yuan arrived at the Ling Family’s secret basent. Just like Ling Chen before them, Pang Jiulin and Tang Yuan were completely stunned by this huge fortune, taking quite a while before coming back to their senses.
"Damn!"
Tang Yuan’s mouth was agape, almost drooling.
After a while, the two settled their minds. Pang Jiulin patted Ling Chen’s shoulder and nodded, "You’re quite sothing, I’ll report this to the higher-ups, and your credit will surely be significant."
Ling Chen’s mouth curled upwards, completely understanding Pang Jiulin’s intention, which was a good thing for him.
"Hey! Instructor Pang, can you...can you help with sothing?" Ling Chen hesitated several tis but couldn’t resist speaking up.
"What help?"
"These valuable items will be handed over to the country, but those books outside aren’t worth anything, can you give them to ?" Ling Chen said. To others, those books weren’t worth anything, but in Ling Chen’s eyes, they were priceless. Moreover, he’s also part of the Ling Family, these books were left by his ancestors, as a descendant, he too has inheritance rights.
Pang Jiulin and Tang Yuan exchanged a glance, knowingly smiled, and nodded, "No problem, but you’ve got to find a way to transport those books out. If the people sent from above see them, you’ll have a hard ti taking them."
Seeing their approval, Ling Chen’s eyes brightened, quickly thanking them.
After coming out of the basent, Ling Chen didn’t delay, imdiately called Hu Fei from East Sea City, asking him to dispatch more people over. So many books, thousands upon thousands, can’t be moved by just two or three people, at least several large trucks need to be prepared.
