Signing In For Eight Years, I Was Exposed As A Zillionaire!

637 Cultural Heritage

This time, his sisters had also been taught a good lesson. They had gained a lot of experience with regards to the skill of maintaining their rationality, calmness, and self-judgment at all times in the current situation.

Just catching a hare alone could explain many things. These principles could be applied to many things. It depended on whether they could grasp these principles.

Then, when they were almost done laughing and had recovered, the sisters also got up and returned to the small wooden house. They sat on the armchair and leaned back with their heads raised. They even wanted to laugh.

They had been playing here for almost the entire afternoon. Furthermore, they didn’t manage to catch the hare. They instantly felt bored. The sun was already setting. Ye Xuan saw that it was about time, so he suggested.

“Let’s go, sisters. Let’s go.”

The sisters were unmoved by these words. They looked up at the sky and sighed. After a while, they sat up and prepared to leave.

Ye Xuan also knew what they were sighing about. If they could catch that hare and bring it back to eat, it would be considered a satisfactory end to this trip to paradise today.

Unfortunately, they didn’t catch the hare.

However, there was always a little regret. That was the truth of continuity, right?

“What should we do with this watermelon? Should we bring it back?”

At this moment, Big Sister Ye Wan looked at the other half of the giant watermelon and asked with a troubled expression. After all, this watermelon was too big. It couldn’t fit in the trunk. After cutting it open and putting it in, it would probably be a bumpy journey home. Who knew how much watermelon juice there would be in the trunk? The watermelon would be rotten.

Therefore, it was not good to cut it open unless there was a protective tool like plastic wrap to protect it.

The other sisters were also in a dilemma when they saw this. They could not bear to leave such a huge watermelon here no matter how it rotted. It was in their Chinese genes to not waste food.

Hence, they didn’t know what to do for a moment and looked at Ye Xuan, hoping that he would give them an idea.

This feeling of being trusted was good, but Ye Xuan was also a little embarrassed. This kind of trouble was indeed quite troublesome, but since his sisters had no choice, he could only think of a way by himself.

Therefore, he went to the warehouse to take a look. He found a hemp rope and wooden board among the many tools. He immediately had an idea and went out to wave at his sisters.

“Let’s go. I have an idea.”

After saying that, he jogged towards the car. When his sisters saw this, although they didn’t know what Ye Xuan could do, they obediently carried this huge watermelon that was several times larger than a washbasin and walked towards the car.

It was quite tiring to walk all the way. Fortunately, they reached the place, which was not far away. Once they arrived, Ye Xuan picked up the watermelon and placed it on the roof of the car. The top was already cushioned with wooden planks. When the cut watermelon was placed on the wooden planks, it was like a bowl cover.

Then, Ye Xuan tied it up with a hemp rope to ensure that it would not fall along with the bumps along the way. Then, he made an ‘OK’ gesture to his sisters and got into the car.

The sisters looked at the big watermelon on the roof. This was fine, but they just felt that it looked a little strange and inexplicably funny.

Then, without saying anything, they got into the car and drove home.

They sped along. It was fine when they drove in the wilderness. After all, there were fewer people walking outside. However, as soon as they entered the city, all creatures with eyes looked at the watermelon above their car. As they smiled, they took photos with their phones. They were shocked by the size of the watermelon and wondered where this family had gotten such a huge watermelon.

In particular, when they passed by the stall owners selling watermelons in carts, the eyes of the bosses simply widened. They looked at the huge watermelon. Then, they looked at the watermelons they were selling, and their expressions darkened.

His sisters were also amused by the attention. They chatted and laughed all the way back to the villa.

When they arrived at the villa, Big Sister Ye Wan parked the car steadily. Then, she got out of the car to untie the watermelon with everyone. They carried it into the house and cut it into slices before putting it in the fridge. When they wanted to eat it, they would take a slice out and eat it. It was indeed not bad.

Then, after resting on the sofa for a while, their Ninth Sister Ye Xue looked at her cell phone. She probably had some work to do. She only rested for a while before getting up and returning to her room.

The room was fragrant, clean, and tidy. The decorations everywhere were more elegant. Perhaps it was because of her archeological work, but Ninth Sister Ye Xue had fallen in love with this solemn and elegant feeling, that only adults liked, at a young age.

Compared to the cuteness of the other sisters’ rooms, Ninth Sister Ye Xue indeed had a unique style.

After entering the room, Ninth Sister Ye Xue pulled the curtains to block the gentle golden light of the setting sun. Then, she went to the desk and turned on the computer. She turned on DingTalk[1] and joined a video conference.

“I’m sorry I’m late. I just got home.”

As soon as Ninth Sister Ye Xue turned on the microphone, she apologized politely. Then, she started to focus on the screen.

In the video, there were five archeological experts. They looked to be in their forties or fifties. Clearly, they were all old archeological experts and had a lot of experience.

“Professor Ye, you came at the right time. This meeting was held in a hurry. I should be the one to apologize. I unearthed an item during an archeology trip this morning, but this item is especially special. I couldn’t find the prototype of this thing among the known items. I was especially puzzled and couldn’t find its origin, so I urgently called this meeting to ask the experts if you know anything and see what this is.”

The person who spoke was an archeologist in the middle of the screen. After he finished speaking, he took out the strange thing he described and placed it on the table.

Seeing this, the other experts began to narrow their eyes and look at the old object seriously.

The shape of this old object was strange, but it was not necessarily so. It was like a tea bowl, but there were four horns on the back on both sides.

The four horns were of different shapes. One was an antler, one was a bull horn, one was a rhinoceros horn, and the last was a sheep horn.

It looked a little strange. Moreover, when the expert rotated it, the horns could still turn like a toy. They turned from the root.

Because he was afraid of breaking it, the expert carefully turned it with white gloves on. Therefore, he did not know what the principle behind these rotating horns was.

“It looks a little like a mechanical structure, right? With those horns, could it be a toy left behind by a grave robber when he was fighting back?”

The expert on the right side of the screen spoke with his glasses on. Clearly, he said this because he didn’t know what it was at all. This was because among the known cultural relics that had been unearthed, none of them were very similar to this thing. Thus, he wasn’t very sure and could only give an explanation.
