In the evening, the appraiser from the pawnshop rushed over from out of town.
"The item is fine." After appraising the stock certificate, the appraiser looked at Chen Yiyang curiously and asked.
"But could you tell me where this stock certificate came from? It's truly unbelievable how well it's been preserved."
Based on the style of the safe and other items placed inside it, Chen Yiyang speculated in his heart that this China Merchants Steam Navigation Company stock likely belonged to a family lineage passed down since the Qing Dynasty.
Throughout the inheritance process, the entire family retained a large number of old objects left by their ancestors to serve as funds for the family's future revival.
However, something unexpected must have happened later, causing them to sink the safe in the lake and never come back to search for it again.
Of course, Chen Yiyang couldn't tell the truth.
