After a while, everyone had arrived.
At this time, Xiao Ran had also entered the live broadcast room and started live broadcast.
Just like yesterday, he told the fans in the two live broadcast rooms in advance.
Since there are many people at the scene, he will reduce the interaction with the fans in the live broadcast room to avoid getting into trouble.
Fans in the live broadcast room can witness the entire process of exploring this treasure and discuss it in the live broadcast room, which is not much different from participating in person.
If a valuable antique artwork is found in the treasure, they can take a screenshot or video to find someone to identify it, and wait for the subsequent bidding.
In addition to Xiao Ran and Thomas, there were also Pierre and others in Paris who were responsible for the on-site identification and evaluation.
In addition, there are several appraisal experts from the Metropolitan Museum and MOMA, who participate on a voluntary basis!
For them, this is a very rare opportunity.
Even though Xiao Ran did not invite them and would not pay any appraisal fees, they were still very happy to participate.
At the request of Thomas and others, Xiao Ran agreed to the request of these appraisal experts.
Two large-screen TVs for video connections have also been set up and placed in the center of the reception area.
Various demolition and excavation tools, as well as various protective measures.
For example, winches, safety ropes, and gas masks are all ready.
In a blink of an eye, everything was ready.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran entered the billiards room and inspected it carefully.
After making sure there was no problem, he returned to the reception area outside.
He glanced at the representatives from all parties present, then smiled and said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the preparations have been completed and we will start the excavation operation soon."
"Everyone just needs to stay here. The entire exploration and excavation process will be shown on the big-screen TV, so everyone can see it more clearly here."
"During the exploration process, if any danger is discovered, we will warn you as soon as possible and arrange for everyone to evacuate."
Everyone at the scene nodded and basically had no objections.
Everyone understands that until this treasure is unearthed, it is useless to say anything.
Staying here to witness the emergence of this treasure is the best choice.
Only the engineers of the New York Subway Company stood up and expressed different opinions.
"Mr. Sean, considering that this apartment building is very close to the abandoned subway under 64th Street, I must supervise the entire excavation process on site."
"In the process of digging for treasures, if the safety of that subway line is endangered, I have the right to stop your actions!"
This is just fucking nitpicking, looking for trouble!
The abandoned subway located deep underground has been abandoned for eighty or ninety years.
In the past few decades, you have forgotten that the subway even existed, otherwise it would not have been possible to sell the underground rights!
Now that I heard that there may be a huge treasure hidden deep underground, you greedy guys are suddenly excited!
Xiao Ran complained to himself angrily, but nodded with a smile.
"No problem, you can supervise on site. Our exploration operations are completely open and transparent."
"But you can only send one person into the billiards room, and you can't interfere with my employees' operations!"
The three guys from the New York Subway Company were stunned for a moment, then nodded and accepted the condition.
The representative they sent was none other than the engineer.
Afterwards, Xiao Ran took the guy towards the billiards room.
There was already a lot of curses in the live broadcast room.
"Holy shit! These grandsons from the New York Subway Company are clearly here to cause trouble!"
"Just watch, these grandsons will definitely do all sorts of things next!"
He cursed angrily, repeating the same old tune.
"Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone on the road!"
"These grandsons are obviously unwilling and they are just here for the treasure!"
I, a mortal, continued.
Not only the fans in the live broadcast room, but also many company employees and security personnel at the scene looked at these guys from the New York Subway Company with hatred.
While talking, Xiao Ran and the others walked into the billiards room.
At this time, the two billiard tables in the billiard room were carried out.
Instead, there were a large number of excavation and demolition equipment, as well as combined winches, etc., making the site look a bit messy.
There are several layers of plastic sheeting on the ground to absorb the soil, sand and gravel dug out from the ground.
Once all the treasures buried deep underground are dug out, all the excavated soil and sand will be backfilled.
After entering the billiards room, Xiao Ran walked straight to the south wall and checked the situation on the ground.
Before that, he had marked the location of the entrance to the secret passage on the ground, which was very eye-catching.
Since he was the only one who had seen the treasure map, no matter what actions he made or how precise the location he marked, he didn't have to worry about arousing suspicion from others.
Xiao Ran pretended to check the ground seriously, then nodded and said:
"Guys, start moving, cut the ground first, and then dig down from here."
"The original entrance to the secret passage was here, but it was blocked."
"Only by re-digging this secret passage can we enter the secret room where the treasure is hidden."
"You must pay attention to safety during excavation. If you find anything abnormal, stop immediately."
After the words fell, several employees immediately responded in unison:
"Understood, leave it to us, we will definitely dig out this treasure."
With that said, these guys took action.
Seeing this, the engineer from the New York Subway Company immediately raised his hand, as if ready to say something.
As a result, he hesitated to speak and immediately put down his arm.
Everyone ignored this guy and got busy.
The next moment, a company employee holding a water jet started the water jet and started cutting the stone slabs on the ground.
Under the high-speed jet of emery water, a deep gap was immediately cut out of the exquisite marble floors on the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the two floors at the entrance to the secret passage were torn into eight pieces and separated from the other marble floors around them.
Immediately afterwards, another company employee came forward with a crowbar and pried up the back marble floors in a few clicks.
After cleaning the broken marble floor to one side, the granite slab covered underneath was immediately revealed.
Xiao Ran stepped forward to check the situation again, and then nodded.
"Continue cutting along the gaps between these granite slabs. There should be cement poured underneath."
"Although the entrance to this secret room is sealed, it is not difficult to break it. I believe we can dig out this secret passage soon."
With an order, several employees took action again and continued cutting.
Xiao Ran stepped aside and stood at the door of the billiard room, chatting with Elaine and David.
In the leisure area.
The deputy mayor of New York and Thomas are watching the live broadcast.
Everything that happens in the billiards room is clearly shown on the big screen TV.
In the live broadcast room, many fans also looked at the same scene.
Outside the apartment building.
Those guys gathered outside could only understand the progress of the exploration operation through text messages that continued to be transmitted from the apartment building.
Those who are not on 64th Street but are also paying close attention to this exploratory operation can only understand the situation through leaked text information.
Soon, ten minutes passed.
Excavation operations continue.
At this time, there was a lot of garbage in the billiard room, piled on the floor.
The garbage is basically stones and cement fragments, which were taken out from the entrance of the secret passage.
The entrance to the secret passage marked by Xiao Ran has been dug down by nearly 30 centimeters.
While talking, the company employee who was digging suddenly said excitedly:
"Sean, there are no cement and granite stones down there, it's all sand!"
"There are still solid cement and stones surrounding the sand. It is obvious that this is indeed a secret passage."
"It's just that it was completely blocked! The diameter of this secret passage is less than one meter, so it will be easy to dig next."
Before he finished speaking, cheers erupted from the scene.
"Awesome! We finally dug this secret tunnel!"
All the company employees present cheered, including Elaine and the others. Everyone was excited.
Before the cheers died down, Xiao Ran quickly stepped forward and began to check the situation.
The engineer who was also in the billiards room was stunned.
"Ah! There is actually a treasure here, it's incredible!"
The guy muttered.
rest area.
Everyone, including the deputy mayor of New York, jumped up from the sofa as if they were electrocuted.
Although they had expected this scene for a long time, they were still shocked when this result actually appeared.
These guys stared at the pictures on the big screen TV with their eyes wide open.
On the big-screen TV, a secret passage about one meter in diameter was clearly visible.
The New York City Subway Company executive and lawyer both had regretful expressions in their eyes, and even their facial muscles were twitching in pain.
"Oh my God! There really is a treasure here. Who buried it?"
"Sean's luck is so exaggerated, he deserves to be God's favorite"
The live broadcast room was even more lively.
"I'll go! I really let Xiao Ran find the secret passage, and the treasure is within reach!"
"Isn't this guy the chosen one? All the good things happened to him!"
Amidst the cheers, Xiao Ran's voice suddenly came again.
"Guys, fasten your safety ropes immediately for safety."
"Then continue digging, but be careful, there may be danger down there!"
