The third thousand two hundred and forty-five chapters of the fine antiques of the Inca civilization

Deep under the sea.

Matisse and another diver worked together to lift a coral-covered slate.

Following their movements, a bright golden light flashed across the video screen immediately.

Under this slate, there are several gold products of different shapes, as well as many Portuguese Moindo gold coins.

Once illuminated by the searchlights, the seabed turned golden, and everyone was dizzy.

It's a pity that those gold products were severely deformed by smashing, so the Moinduo gold coins are still relatively well preserved.

Mattis looked at the condition of the gold and silver treasures, then reached out and picked one up from the sand and sent it to the high-definition underwater camera.

Appearing on the video screen is a smashed golden sea eagle sculpture, but the shape is exaggerated.

The main reason is that the eagle head is somewhat anthropomorphic, and the size is larger than that of the eagle body.

On this golden sea eagle sculpture, some mysterious and exquisite patterns are also engraved, but there is no text, with a very obvious color of Indian civilization.

Of the two rubies originally inlaid in the eyes of this golden sea eagle, one has been smashed, and the other is dull and has long lost its luster.

And most of the colored gemstones inlaid on the wings and tail feathers have also fallen off, and the rest have lost their luster and look smeared.

Ye Tian, ​​who stayed in the cabin of the Intrepid, and Paul taught them, but admiring this broken golden sea eagle fascinatedly.

"This figurine is so beautiful, it can be regarded as a typical antique cultural relic of the Inca civilization. Before this, I have never seen a few pieces of such exquisite gold products of the Inca civilization.

The only pity is that this Inca golden sea eagle has been seriously damaged. Not only has a large number of precious gems been lost, but the deformation is too severe, and I don't know if it can be restored. "

Professor Paul said with emotion, his eyes filled with regret.

He was not the only one who felt sorry, the others also shook their heads regretfully.

Only Ye Tian had a bright smile on his face.

"Gentlemen, if you observe carefully, you will find that although this Inca golden sea eagle statue has been stoned beyond recognition, there are not many damaged places.

And don't forget, it's made of gold, it's very malleable, as long as you salvage this treasure out of the water, I'm sure you can find a way to restore it to its original state.

As for the various colored gems on this golden figurine, it depends on how many we can find on the bottom of the sea. I hope we can find more, otherwise we can only use artificial gems instead! "

Hearing his words, everyone was overjoyed.

No one doubted what he said.

Since Steven said he could restore the Inca Gold Seahawk to its original state, it certainly could be done.

"Very good, Steven, if this Inca gold sea eagle can really be restored to its original state, it will definitely become a top antique artifact."

Professor Douglas said excitedly.

Next, Ye Tian asked Matisse to turn the Inca golden sea eagle upside down and show it again, so that everyone could appreciate it from all angles, and only then did the appraisal come to an end.

Afterwards, Matisse put this valuable Inca antique into the black safety bag beside him, ready to take it to the sea later.

Not only Matisse, but also the other two divers, each carrying a black safety bag.

They are now exploring the bottom of the sea, while putting those valuable small antiques into safety bags and preparing to take them to the surface later.

This can be considered a preliminary clean-up operation, to lighten the burden for the subsequent large-scale clean-up.

As for those gold and silver treasures and antique cultural relics that are larger in size, heavier in weight, and of relatively average value, such as Portuguese Moindo gold coins, there is no need to clean up for the time being.

After putting the Inca gold eagle sculpture in the safety bag, Matisse picked up another gold product from the bottom of the sea.

This is a very small gold vase, the size of a palm.

The bottle is engraved with exquisite and intricate patterns, as well as a picture from the Bible, and a few flying angels are engraved on the neck of the bottle.

In some places on the bottle, there are also some very small gems, which have either fallen off or have long lost their luster.

Like the Inca golden sea eagle, this golden vase was also smashed by the slate just now, turning it into a flat vase that lost its three-dimensionality.

The difference is that this golden vase is relatively intact and easier to restore to its original state.

More importantly, it is a product of Western civilization, not an antique relic of Indian civilization, and its cultural symbols are particularly obvious.

Matisse showed it in front of a high-definition underwater camera, and Ye Tian and the others saw the clue in a blink of an eye.

"Gentlemen, this should be one of the gold and silver treasures specially customized by the Portuguese colony for Noor V, and it is a very beautiful treasure, which is rare.

The artistic style of this gold vase was the most popular Baroque art at that time, with obvious Portuguese style, to be precise, the obvious Portuguese colonial color.

What’s more important is the Braganza Dynasty coat of arms engraved on the bottom of the vase, if I guess correctly, there should be more obvious signs inside this gold vase.”

Ye Tian said with a smile, giving the conclusion of the identification of this small golden vase.

When the voice fell, Professor Paul immediately continued:

"Yes, this is indeed one of the treasures made by the Portuguese colony for Noor V. The picture of the Virgin of the Rocks on the bottle has a clear early Jesuit style.

This is in the same style as the pictures on the other treasures made for Noor V, which is the best explanation, and this gold vase is smaller and more precious."

Following his words, everyone nodded and became even more excited.

After admiring the small gold vase, Matisse put it in a black safety bag and started cleaning it up.

In the blink of an eye, an hour or two has passed.

This wave of exploration and clean-up operations led by Mattis ended, or came to an end for the time being.

With a large number of valuable gold and silver treasures and antiques, they began to rise, ready to return to the sea.

Taking this opportunity, Ye Tian and the others also got up one after another, left the cabin of the Brave Dreadnought, and prepared to go to the deck to let out the wind and move their legs.

As soon as they got out of the cabin, this guy Jason came over.

When he came to the front, the guy immediately whispered and said:

"Steven, the media reporter on the super yacht not far away, has been protesting non-stop, protesting that we cut off the video signal and do not broadcast live underwater exploration.

Those guys said that if it goes on like this, the viewers who follow this treasure hunt live will be completely lost, and in that case, there is no need for them to stay here! "

Hearing this, UU reading www.uukanshu. com everyone laughed.

Ye Tian pondered for a while, then smiled and nodded and said:

"I really can't let those guys leave, it seems that I have to give those guys some sweetness to taste, otherwise they may really leave here in a fit of anger.

Jason, you told those media reporters that when Mattis and the others return to the sea, I will bring some valuable gold and silver treasures and antiques there.

At that time, they can broadcast live, and I will also give the most accurate explanation and appraisal, as well as valuation, I believe this will retain them and many viewers.”

"Understood, Steven, continue to hang on those guys' appetites!"

Jason nodded.

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter, and everyone laughed.

Before the laughter fell, there was a sudden sound of breaking water on the left side of the Dauntless.

The iron cage full of gold and silver treasures and antiques was suspended from the sea again!
