Although it's an old-fashioned safe, since the overall structure hasn't been damaged, if you don't know the password, you can only smash it open with a fire axe.
Fortunately, the password for this safe is written on the second page of information about the find.
Enter the password and open the safe.
Inside are several thick bundles of items.
Chen Yiyang takes them out and sees they are some old stock certificates.
These stocks are tightly wrapped in layers of plastic film, so even though water got into the safe, the stocks inside weren't soaked.
Chen Yiyang carefully wipes off the plastic wrap, then tears off all of the plastic film.
A total of fifty-four stock certificates from the Qing Dynasty and Republic periods.
But except for that China Merchants Steam Navigation Company stock certificate, which has commemorative significance as the first stock in the country.
