"Me!" Lin Beifan raised his hand.
"You? A little kid?" The old man was stunned.
"Boss, he is indeed the buyer!" The waiter came over and explained. He was Lin Beifan, a contestant of the city survival show! Don't look down on him just because he's only eight years old, but he's especially powerful…"
After that, the old man looked at the drone on Lin Beifan's head and nodded in understanding.
Then, he saw Sis Hua beside him and said in surprise,"Ye girl, why are you here? I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've become more and more prominent. You're like a big star, haha!”
"Hello, Grandpa Huang!" "I'm here to accompany two friends!" Sis Hua greeted them with a smile. The buyer, Lin Beifan, has his eyes on the box you mentioned!”
"I see!" The old man nodded.
Looking at Lin Beifan, who was as fair as jade, he suddenly felt a sense of fondness.
Lin Beifan was the type of kid who liked everything from 99 to just learning how to walk.
He walked over and couldn't help but reach out his hand to stroke Lin Beifan's head. He smiled and said,""Little girl, are you the one who wants to buy my Luban box?”
Lin Beifan dodged his outstretched hand and said,""That's right!"
"I didn't expect that at such a young age, you would dare to skip class and participate in a survival show in the city. Moreover, you've earned 600,000 yuan in a few days. If my grandson was as powerful as you, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!”"However, if you want to buy my Luban box, you must fulfill one condition!" The old man smiled.”
"What condition?" Lin Beifan asked.
The old man stretched out his hand and took out the iron lump from the display window. He said,"This thing is called the Luban box. It has a history of 100 years. When I got this thing 30 years ago, I was very happy! This was because in historical records, the Luban box was used to store valuables. It was equivalent to our current safe!”
Everyone nodded.
"Therefore, I figured that there must be something very precious or a big secret inside!”The old man sighed." It's a pity that I've spent decades and still haven't opened this box! This was because many of Luban's skills had been lost. Without knowing the method, one would not be able to open the Luban Box and know the secrets inside!”
"I refused to admit defeat. At that time, I even invited some people from the underworld to try to use their method to open the Luban box!”
" I even used X-rays, hoping to see through the secrets inside!”
The old man shook his head with a bitter expression."In the end, I still returned empty-handed!"
The live broadcast exploded.
"What kind of box is this?"
"After using so many methods and spending so much time, it actually didn't open?”
"This box is so magical?"
"It's even more terrifying than the current password locks!”
……
In the livestream, Godfather Ma said,""Lu Ban was a person from the Spring and Autumn Period of our country. His surname was Ji, and he was a great inventor and architect of our country. He had many inventions, such as a curved ruler, a saw, an ink fountain, and so on. He greatly promoted the productivity of our country in ancient times and was called the God of Craftsmen!”
"Legend has it that he has a book called the 'Book of Luban' that has been passed down for generations! This book was also known as " Missing One ". It recorded many of Lu Ban's magical inventions and creations, but as time passed, many of them were lost! This Luban box is one of them. It is equivalent to our current safe, which is specially used to store valuable items!”
"The design of the Luban box is very ingenious. It can be described as ingenious. If you don't know the method, it will be very difficult to open it! Sometimes, we have to admire the wisdom of the ancients!”
After everyone heard this, they admired the wisdom of the ancients even more.
"Since you want to know what's inside, can't you just find something to cut it open?" He's just a lump of iron. Our technology is so advanced now. There are many ways to cut him open!”
"That won't do. Although this Luban box only has a history of more than a hundred years, it's still a rare cultural relic. It can't be destroyed! Moreover, what if I accidentally destroy the things inside using the method you mentioned?”The old man hurriedly said.
Seemingly realizing that she had asked a retarded question, Bai Rongrong lowered her head in embarrassment.
"I'm not surprised that Goddess Bai asked such a question because she doesn't care about anything else other than eating!”
"You even led our little prodigy astray!”
"In her eyes, this is just a lump of iron. It's not even as attractive as a burger!”
……
Everyone laughed.
"Since none of the methods worked, I changed my train of thought! I'll sell the box here to attract some people who know what's good to buy it. This way, I'll have a chance to open the box and know what's inside!”
"I see!" Everyone was enlightened.
"However, this box has been here for almost 15 years, and not many people have asked about it. Only a few people know about the Luban box and are willing to buy it, but none of them can open it!”
" It's been 30 years," the old man said in a melancholic tone." I've been holding this matter in my heart for more than 30 years!" Half of his foot was almost buried in the ground, but he still could not open the box! This has already become a sore spot in my heart! Now, even in my dreams, I want to open the Luban box and find out what's inside! Sigh!"
"It's really uncomfortable to hold back for more than 30 years!”
"It's as if the secret is right in front of us, but we can't open it. It makes people scratch their ears and cheeks!”
"The old man is actually able to hold back from destroying the box. His perseverance is amazing!”
……
"Little girl, do you want to buy this box purely out of curiosity, or do you know the secret of this box? "The old man asked with the Luban box in his hand.
"I know this is a Luban box!" Lin Beifan said.
The old man's eyes lit up.
"I also know some methods!" Lin Beifan added.
The old man's eyes lit up again.
"However, whether or not it can be opened, we have to try it first! After all, I've never touched this thing before!”
"Alright, you try! If you open it, this Luban box and the things inside will all belong to you! I just want to know the answer!”The old man pointed at the Luban box.
Lin Beifan caught it with both hands and realized that it was quite heavy.
In Bai Rongrong's words, this was a huge lump of iron.
Lin Beifan clenched his fists tightly and started spinning them like a Rubik's cube.
At this moment, millions of netizens were looking forward to it!
I hope he can unlock the Luban box!
However, in the live broadcast room.
"I don't think everyone should have too much hope!" Old Ma said in a pessimistic tone.”
"Why do you say that?"
"Because this Luban box is really difficult to open!”Old Ma said," As everyone can see, this Luban box is similar to a Rubik's cube. It can be called a seventh-order Rubik's cube. It has a 7x7 cube structure! Even a Rubik's cube expert would need nearly two minutes to solve such a seventh-order Rubik's cube! It was impossible for ordinary people to solve it!”
"However, this Luban box is very different from the seventh-order Rubik's cube! This was because the Rubik's Cube had six sides, and each side had a different color to identify, but the Luban Box did not! Every side of the box was the same. There was no way to identify it at all. He didn't even have the idea to open it. This was the reason why the Luban Box was so difficult to open!”
Everyone was enlightened.
Godfather Ma: " Moreover, Boss Huang spent 30 years but still couldn't open it. It can be said that he used all kinds of methods, but it was still useless! How could a child prodigy do it in a few minutes? Everyone just wanted to watch for fun and broaden their horizons!”
"Old Master is right!"”
Perhaps Godfather Ma was right. One minute, two minutes, three minutes…
Ten minutes passed, but Lin Beifan still hadn't opened the Luban box.
Everyone was gradually disappointed.
This was really not a box that ordinary people could open!
The old man's expression was calm, as if he had expected this. He was slowly making tea at the side and entertaining the visitors.
After all, the other party was just a child and could not be forced.
However, the other party was the only buyer in the past few years, so he could not help but hold onto a glimmer of hope.
"Since I can't open it, then…"
A voice came from Lin Beifan's hand.
"Kacha!"
The old man turned his head to look, and his eyes were about to pop out in shock.
His mouth was wide open, and he could almost swallow an egg.
Look, what did he see?
He saw Lin Beifan, a child who was loved by the whole nation, opening the Luban box as easily as opening a skull.
The surrounding people were all shocked.
The live broadcast room fell into an unprecedented silence before it exploded.
"The Luban box…opened!"
"The little prodigy opened the Luban box!"
"He opened the Luban box!"
……
The entire live broadcast room was in an uproar!
"You opened the Luban box?" Sister Hua said in shock.
"As you can see, I did open it!”Lin Beifan held the Luban box in one hand and the lid in the other. He smiled and said,""It's actually quite simple!"
"Simple?" Everyone was speechless.
If it was really simple, it wouldn't have troubled the old man for more than 30 years!
He had tried so many methods, but they were all useless!
However, at this moment, everyone could not care less about this!
"Hurry up! Let me see what's inside!”The old man said excitedly.
Everyone gathered around, and the drone zoomed in.
Lin Beifan placed the box in the middle of the table. Everyone walked up and saw its appearance. It was a spherical object, slightly larger than an ordinary egg, like a fitness ball.
However, that thing was tightly wrapped in a blue silk cloth, so it was still impossible to see its original appearance.
Lin Beifan reached out and was about to grab the sphere.
"Wait!" The old man shouted.
"What is it?" Lin Beifan asked.
"Put on gloves before taking it to avoid damage!”the old man said.
"Surely not?" Lin Beifan said.
"Why not? Put it on quickly!" The old man took out a new pair of gloves and threw it to him.
Lin Beifan put on his gloves and carefully took out the item from the Luban box. Then, he slowly unwrapped the blue silk cloth that was wrapped around it. In the end, what appeared in front of everyone was a crystal clear, hollowed-out spherical jade.
"It's actually a spherical jade?"
"What a beautiful jade. The workmanship is exquisite, and the carvings are lifelike. I love it, I want one too!”
"Looking at the color and size of the jade, it's worth 500,000 to 600,000!”
"Only 500,000 to 600,000? This was an antique with a history bonus. It was at least a million!”
"100,000 to earn 1,000,000, 9 times the profit, the little prodigy has made a fortune!”
"Why don't I have such good luck?”
"Was that luck? The little prodigy opened the Luban box with his own strength!”
……
For a moment, countless netizens were envious.
At the City Survival program production center, Director Wang gritted his teeth."Damn it, this little guy has profited again! 100,000 to earn 1 million. Could this little guy really be the illegitimate child of God's father?”
He thought that it would end here.
However, the old man's body trembled and his voice trembled as he said,"This is…Ghost Craftsman Jade Ball!”
"Ghost Craftsman Jade Ball? What is this?"
"The proper name for that piece of jade?”
"Looking at that old man's expression, he was clearly very excited. Could that piece of jade be very valuable?”
"It's a million yuan. How can I not be excited?”
"The person above is ignorant. For a boss like him who can afford to open a huge antique shop, a million yuan is really nothing! The goods they handled every year were worth tens of millions. It was easy to break through a hundred million! To be able to make him so excited, it meant that this jade was very rare and worth at least ten million!”
"What is it? It was worth ten million! How terrifying!"
" How terrifying!!!"
……
Countless netizens gasped.
At this moment, in the live broadcast room.
Master Bei noticed that Old Ma's expression was abnormal, so he asked with concern,"Godfather Ma, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No! I was too excited!”Old Ma said excitedly," I didn't expect this, I didn't expect this. I actually saw the legendary Ghost Craftsman Jade Ball. It's really too rare!" It's too rare!"
Everyone was shocked!
Even the knowledgeable collector, Godfather Ma, was excited when he saw the ball-shaped jade?
Was it really something extraordinary?
"Godfather Ma, can you tell me about it?" asked Master Bei humbly.”
"No problem!" Old Ma regained his composure and said," Speaking of ancient relics, many people might think of exquisite jade and porcelain. However, there is actually a kind of artifact that is even more exquisite and exquisite than jade. It is called the Ghost Craftsman Ball!”
"The Ghost Craftsmanship Ball was originally called the Concentric Ball, or the Ivory Carving Ball. It was mainly carved into a hollow ball from wood, ivory, or jade. There were also many hollow concentric spheres embedded in the ball, which could be moved to rotate. Each layer could be moved, and it looked like a divine work, so it was also called the Ghost Craftsman Ball!”
"As everyone can see in the video!”
Everyone nodded in understanding.
"According to archeological discoveries, the earliest ghost work ball appeared during the Song and Ming Dynasties, but it reached its peak during the Qing Dynasty! It was said that the most powerful Ghost Craftsman Ball could only be carved up to 60 levels. It was very powerful!”
"Due to its complicated and exquisite production, the Ghost Work Ball was already a luxury item during the Qing Dynasty. It was the favorite toy of the high officials and nobles! How much do you think this thing is worth?”
"Needless to say, it's definitely worth more than ten million!”
"I was wrong. I underestimated the value of that jade!”
"The child prodigy has become rich!"
"A millionaire in a day!"
……
The entire Internet exploded!
