The car couldn't start immediately.

Liu Yong was filled with full of happiness and excitement.

Liu Yong did not immediately drive away in his car. He waited two or three minutes, calming down his excitement before finally departing. He felt the urgency to return to the rental house to examine what he had acquired.

The drive back was relatively unobstructed, and it took at least ten minutes less time compared to when Liu Yong had arrived.

Upon parking the car downstairs at the rental house, Liu Yong contemplated for a moment before deciding to leave the saber in the car for the time being. It was too noticeable to carry around, so he opted to bring the other items inside the house first.

Liu Yong placed the pocket watch and bracelet in his pocket, retrieved the gold bars from the trunk, and held them in his hands. He locked the car and took a moment to compose himself before going upstairs.

Along the way, Liu Yong encountered several individuals, but none of them suspected that the woven bag in his possession contained dozens of gold bars.

Finally entered the room and closed the door, Liu Yong let out a long sigh.

Liu Yong removed the pocket watch and bracelet from his pocket, placing them in a drawer for closer examination later. However, his priority was to clean the gold bars and determine the total quantity.

Liu Yong located a plastic washbasin and filled it halfway with clean water. He carefully placed the gold bars into the basin one by one and happily cleaned them with a brush in hand.

I scrub, scrub, scrub!

I'm over the moon!

Liu Yong scrubbed away with enthusiasm, feeling overjoyed at the prospect of owning so much gold.

The gold bars had submerged at the bottom of the sea for an extended period, and as a result, they were dirty and covered in mud and other debris. Bawang had retrieved them and brought them to the beach, which got stained with sand.

Liu Yong diligently cleaned each gold bar one by one. As he brushed away the dirt and debris, its appearance got revealed. The gold bars shone brightly, gleaming in their original golden color. Liu Yong was thrilled to behold their beauty.

Although Liu Yong was not an expert in the identification, he could discern from the weight and color of the gold bars that they were undoubtedly genuine. He was confident that they were authentic gold bars.

Especially the weight. It is very overwhelming, dead heavy.

Each gold bar has the words "Central Bank" and "1KG". Undoubtedly, this is domestic gold looted by RB people during World War II.

After Cleaning, Liu Yong wiped each gold bar with a dry rag. He then brought over his newly purchased electronic scale and placed it on the table in preparation for the next step.

Liu Yong picked up one of the gold bars and placed it on the electronic scale to weigh it. To his satisfaction, it weighed 1000 grams, confirming that all the gold bars were indeed 1 kg in weight.historical

"ONE ... TWO ....THREE"

Liu Yong counted the gold bars twice and confirmed there were 52 in total. With each bar weighing 1 kg, the total weight of all the gold bars was 52 kg. It didn't surprise that they had felt so cumbersome when he had picked them up earlier.

The total weight of the gold bars, 52 kilograms, was equivalent to over a hundred catties. Luckily, Liu Yong was able to carry them without difficulty. If someone else had found them, they might not have been able to lift them.

Based on the current market price of gold, the value of these 52 gold bars exceeded 20 million yuan. Liu Yong was stunned to think he had just stumbled upon such a fortune. It was a windfall that would change his life forever.

With the sudden wealth, Liu Yong realized he now had the financial means to purchase a house. Moreover, he had already made to register a company to start his own business. The discovery of the gold bars presented a unique opportunity to achieve his dreams and goals.

Liu Yong decided to start a company specializing in the deep-sea salvage business, given his recent discovery of gold bars with the help of Bawang. He believed that with Bawang's expertise and knowledge, they could pursue this line of work and achieve success. By owning a company, he could better account for the source of his newfound wealth, even if he becomes wealthier. It would be easier to explain that the company had made money, making his business endeavors more credible.

Liu Yong must find a capable buyer to collect all these gold bars.]

After neatly storing the gold bars, Liu Yong carefully cleaned the pocket watch and examined it closely. He decided that he needed to find a professional to appraise its value. If the price was right, he could sell it.

Liu Yong is not an expert, but he speculates that the bracelet is made of jade due to its green and translucent appearance and that it could be valuable.

The next day.

Liu Yong put this bracelet in his pocket and a gold bar in his bag. He drove to Qian Dasheng Company, the largest gold jeweler in Huahai City.

Qian Dasheng is very famous in Huahai City. Not only a local jewelry company, but it also has at least dozens of stores in Huahai City and hundreds of chain stores across the country.

It shouldn't be a big problem for such a powerful jewelry company to buy these dozens of gold bars and this jade bracelet.

Liu Yong did not go to their store but went to the headquarters of their company which is in the Qingjiang High-tech Industrial Park. There are not only office buildings yet processing plants covering a large area.

The inspection was relatively strict. Liu Yong said he was here to discuss business. The security saw that the car he was driving was a big G, and he was released only after registration.

Entering from the gate is a magnificent office building, and further inside is the factory area. The security level of the factory area is higher, and Liu Yong will not be able to enter.

However, there is no need to go into the factory area. The goal is this office building. After parking the car, Liu Yong entered the building with his bag.

The lady at the front desk was quite enthusiastic. After asking Liu Yong, she learned he had a batch of gold he wanted to sell, so she called immediately.

After a while, a middle-aged man came, wearing a suit and tie. After the two sides introduced themselves, Liu Yong knew he was the general manager of the purchasing department.

Liu Yong mentioned that he had over 50 kilograms of gold to sell was a significant transaction. Fortunately, Tang Libing, the head of the purchasing department, was present in the company and could attend to the matter in person.

"Mr. Liu, let's talk inside."

Under his leadership, the two came to a reception room. The environment was nice and quiet, and someone immediately made hot tea and brought it over.

After offering Liu Yong a seat on the sofa, Tang Libing cut to the chase and asked, "May I see your gold, Mr. Liu?"

Liu Yong took the gold bar from his bag and put it on the table.

Tang Libing picked up the gold bar and looked at it seriously. After a look, he judged that it was pure gold or the gold bar of the Central Bank before liberation.

"Mr. Liu, do you have any proof documents for gold bars?"

Liu Yong said truthfully:

"No, it's been too long, and I don't know where to throw it if I have supporting documents."

Tang Libing nodded lightly, "If there is no supporting document, the price will be slightly lower. We can only offer 350 yuan."

A small gold shop on the street previously purchased the gold necklace found in Mohu Lake by Snapping Turtle for 330 yuan per gram. On the other hand, the purchasing department of the large company offered a higher cost of 350 yuan per gram, which was not surprising given its reputation and size.

Liu Yong expressed dissatisfaction with Tang Libing's offer by saying: "Mr. Tang, I believe your purchase price is too low. The current international gold price has already surpassed 1,900 US dollars per ounce, equivalent to more than 450 yuan per gram."

Tang Libing patiently explained: "The international gold price is indeed the case, but our company's purchase price is not so high, and your gold has no proof."

Finally, Liu Yong's words moved Tang Libing.

"Mr. Tang, I have much more than this little gold. We can cooperate for a long time in the future. You must have a higher gold price."

"What?"

"You still have a lot of gold on hand?"
