The jeep drove along the road with very good scenery. After what had happened just now, the few of them did not hold back. They talked and laughed, and did not have the depressed mood they had when they first entered the town.
Xuan started to notice the system notifications that he hadn't had time to check.
[Mission Hint: Obtain the mysterious national treasure (Picture in Picture). Donate it to the country for free and you will receive three times the reward.]
"It's too tiring to get out of the car. Let's take a rest.”Xuan suggested.
"Alright, why don't I drive for a while?”Li sis said with a smile. She thought Xuan was tired after driving for so long.
"Although I don't have a driver's license in America, I've been driving in China for more than ten years. Moreover, there are few cars in the Grand Canyon, so it's fine to drive slowly.”
"When we're about to leave, I'll get out of the car and you can drive.”
"Alright." Xuan didn't hesitate. After getting off the car and changing seats with Sis Li, he immediately smelled a fragrant scent.
Because of the start, the front passenger seat next to Xuan wasn't occupied. Reba and Sis Li sat in the back.
Sister Li was driving now, so Xuan naturally sat in the back.
Taking out the painting, Xuan didn't care about Reba's curious gaze. He took a deep breath and carefully removed the frame of the painting.
With the system's strengthened knowledge of antiques, Xuan took out the item hidden in the painting without any damage.
"A piece of paper?" Reba asked curiously.
She had thought that Xuan had spent so much effort, and that he wasn't willing to leave even if someone followed them. In the end, it was all for a piece of paper?
A piece of paper about the size of an A4 paper was filled with English words. The last part of the paper was filled with dense signatures. There were also more than ten seals stamped on the entire piece of paper. Moreover, the entire piece of paper was yellow. It was obvious that it was something that had been around for some time.
Reba didn't see what was written on the paper. As long as he was curious, Xuan's heart was already shaken.
Xuan, whose English wasn't bad, knew how powerful this piece of paper was.
There were a few words written on it:
In the course of human history, when it was necessary for a nation to remove the political shackles that linked it to another nation and obtain independence and equality among the world powers in accordance with the laws of nature and God's will, sincerity and respect for human fishing vessels required them to announce the reasons for their independence.
This was how the colonies had been submissive in the past, and why they had to change their systems.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, and that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unbreakable rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
"F * ck| F * ck!" Xuan's heart shook. His hands trembled unconsciously. It wasn't because he was too excited about getting something good, but because he was afraid!
What he was holding in his hand was none other than the foundation of the founding of the United States of America, the remnant page of the declaration of independence.
"Ding!"
The system's voice sounded.
Obtaining the National Treasure: The Third Page of the Declaration of independence.
[Mission Reward: Donate to the State of America for free. Reward: 100 million dollars, obtained the title "Reward: 1 billion USD, title "Waiting to Die"[Free donation back to China. Reward: Antique appraisal (advanced), body strengthening (intermediate), 51% shares of the French Romanée-Conti winery. Title: pocket
"What's wrong?" Reba looked at Xuan's ugly expression and asked in confusion.
Could it be that the thing he took a huge risk to find did not meet his expectations?
Xuan, who was pulled back to his thoughts, casually put away the declaration of independence."It's nothing. I just don't understand English…"
Xuan, who was affected by the huge change, didn't have the interest to continue chatting. He closed his eyes to rest.
Looking at the mission displayed by the system, Xuan felt bitter. Especially the 51% shares of the French Romanée-Conti winery made him jealous. After all, the king of red wine, Romanée-Conti, was worth at least tens of billions of dollars. There was also antique appraisal and body strengthening, but this mission was undoubtedly the most difficult.
He was now in America. Wasn't it nonsense for you to swagger back to America with another country's declaration of independence?
Did they really think that the infrared scanner at the airport was just a decoration?
Moreover, if the incident at the airport was exposed, it would not be a joke. After all, the declaration of independence was clearly written in the history books and stored in the National Archives of America!
Now Xuan remembered who Thomas Jefferson was and why the old man had the authentic declaration of independence.
Thomas Jefferson was the initiator of the declaration of independence, and the old man's grandfather was the initiator's secretary. He could really be said to be the vanguard of the reform.
As for the old man hiding in the small town, it was nothing more than the failure of the political struggle after the reform. The old man's grandfather secretly swapped the most important page of the original work and hid it in the small town until now.
Xuan didn't want to delve into how the old man's grandfather was able to switch places. He only wanted to know how to deal with this troublesome thing.
The first option was dropped by Xuan. After all, he was tricked by the Sam people a few days ago. He couldn't bring anything to the enemy and take revenge.
As for the second option, Xuan gave it up after some consideration. Although he had some money and was a billionaire in the eyes of others, he was just a bigger ant in front of the real higher-ups.
If the matter was exposed and the declaration of independence of the United States was in the hands of a Dragon Country, the outcome could be imagined.
The only possibility was to bring the declaration of independence back home. Although this was the most difficult mission, it was also the most feasible mission.
"Drink up. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is in the sky.”Xuan gritted his teeth and accepted the third option.
……
The three of them didn't say anything as they were influenced by Xuan's silence. Just as Sis Li was about to leave the canyon, the two of them switched places. Xuan drove all the way to the airport gate without stopping.
Reba said after hesitating for a long time when he saw Xuan not getting off the car.
"Although I don't know much about antiques, I also know that there's a profit and a loss. Although you didn't receive anything good this time, you'll find something good in the future.”
"I…I really can't. If I see anything good in China, I…I'll buy two for you.”
Reba thought that Xuan hadn't received what he wanted and was unhappy.
Looking at Reba's adorable appearance, Xuan didn't care that Reba was a big star and scolded him jokingly.
"Am I such a fragile person that I need you to buy me two antiques?”
"Hurry up and get lost. I just remembered that my mother is urging me to get married. I'm so worried. If you really want to help me, just introduce me to a few of the famous actresses in the entertainment industry.”
"Hmph, you wish." Reba smiled sweetly.
Sister Li lowered her head and looked at her shoes as she listened to their conversation.
Seeing the man and the car getting further and further away until they could no longer be seen, Sister Li slowly said,"Ahem, everyone has left."
Reba looked as if he didn't hear him. He looked at the place where Xuan disappeared and muttered to himself,"Is he a swordsman or a general…"
What was that sentence called?
It seemed so.
"With thousands of troops and horses, it's not difficult to take things from your pocket.”
