Dong Xuebing just smile and continue walking around, taking notes. Because he was not writing the formal report, the only jolts down points. He wanted to finish his job and make a trip to Panjiayuen or Shilihe’s antique markets. He wants to see if he could get any lucky finds there. Now, Dong Xuebing total wealth was only slightly more than 100,000 RMB. It was still far from his 1 million RMB target.

Noon, Dong Xuebing went to a small restaurant opposite to have his lunch.

He thought if he should follow an expert later at Panjiayuen. He could use BACK to be one step faster than the expert. Sighed……. But there were not many experts around. Furthermore, the items picked by the experts might not be an authentic antique too. What should he do? Walnuts gamble again? But he will not be so lucky every time. If he only waited for someone to open a walnut fruit and use BACK to snatch it, it will be a waste. Even if he could use BACK twice and got a pair of 45 mm Lion Head, he can only sell it for a few thousand RMB. How long will he take to reach 1 million? Also, there should not be many walnut fruits this season. Even if he wants to gamble, he will have to wait until next year!

Dong Xuebing had a headache. Even with the power BACK, it was also tough to make money!

Dong Xuebing returned to the residential estate and looked at the half-demolished building. Dong Xuebing was thinking about how to make money and taking pictures at the same time. Where should he go to make money? He was not hoping to find a Yuen dynasty porcelain vase or a Xuande Burner. He only wants something that will let him earn 100,000 RMB! Sighed…… Where can I find treasures?

Just when Dong Xuebing was still daydreaming, he heard someone shouting at him from behind.

“Hey, hey! What are you doing?” Dong Xuebing turned and saw a middle age man.

Dong Xuebing took a picture and frowned: “What’s the matter?”

“What do you think? Stop taking pictures!”

“I am taking my pictures, did I bother you?”

There were some workers carrying bricks behind the middle age man. From his attitude, he should be the supervisor of the workers. The middle age man stepped forward and tried to snatch Dong Xuebing’s camera. “This is our work site. Have you asked for our permission?” The man thought Dong Xuebign was a reporter. He had received orders from his higher-ups to not let reporters report on their work site and have negative news. This was why this man was so insistent.

Dong Xuebing dodged and asked with a long face. “This land belongs to the nation. Since when did this place belong to you?”

The man stared at Dong Xuebing furiously. “Shut up! Give me that camera!”

“I need to be clear to you first. I am not a reporter. I am taking pictures for me to draw.” Dong Xuebing argued and quickly keep the camera. He looked at him in his eyes. “Why did you try to snatch my things without asking first? Are you a thief? I can't be bothered with you! Where is the person in charge? Ask the person in charge to come out!” Dong Xuebing was used to ordering people around these two days and had no problems saying all those words.

The middle age man laughed. “Oh? You sure can talk big. You want to find the leader? I am the leader here!” He said and moved forward to try to snatch Dong Xuebing’s bag. “Give me the camera!”

“Stop it!”

At this moment, a few workers who were working beside a collapsed wall and bricks suddenly shouted. One of them threw his spade and kneel on the floor to dig the ground with his hands. He dug out a battered wooden box cover.

The middle age supervisor asked: “What’s wrong?”

A worker with northeast accent shouted: “It’s a box. Just now, I dug out a piece of tile, and it was buried underneath. I think there is a treasure in it!”

The supervisor was surprised. “Treasure?!”

Dong Xuebing was also stunned. He stretched his neck to try to see what the treasure was. But he could not see it clearly.

Another northeast accented worker, who was kneeling there said. “There is a big metal chest in the box. I am not sure what it contains!”

Box? Metal chest?

The middle age man brightens up. He had been in this line for many years, and he knew that sometimes people will find treasures buried underground. This was not uncommon in the industry. Last year, when he was at a work site in Changchun street, he found two jade pendants buried under a house. He sold the pendants for a large sum of money. The middle age man was overjoyed. Hahaha. It’s my lucky day today. He turned around and stared at Dong Xuebing. He was no longer interested in getting Dong Xuebing’s camera. He shoved Dong Xuebing: “Ok, ok! Hurry up and get lost!”

You want to chase me away now?

Fat hopes!

After Dong Xuebing saw the wooden box, his eyes also brighten up. “BACK!!!”
