In a short while, the wall outside the hidden compartment was shoveled away.
Then what appeared in front of everyone was a wall made of red bricks, which seemed to have nothing special about it.
There is no secret door on this exposed wall, and no trace of the existence of a secret door can be seen.
After asking his staff to wipe away the dust on the wall, Xiao Ran stepped forward and began to check the situation on the wall.
In just a moment, he had already discovered something.
"Everyone, please look here. The red bricks here seem to be a little darker than those in other places."
"Another point is that the specifications are also different. They are smaller than the red bricks in other places. They should not be fired in the same place or at the same time."
As he spoke, he pointed to a few red bricks on the wall.
Following his words, Pierre and Carlin all came closer and looked at the red bricks.
The live broadcast provided high-definition close-up pictures in a timely manner so that everyone could see it more clearly.
With deliberate efforts, everyone quickly saw the difference.
"It's true, Sean, these red bricks are indeed different from other red bricks."
"Look at the lighter red bricks above, which are intertwined and fully support the weight above."
"It can be concluded from this that these darker red bricks are secret doors, but they have been sealed long ago."
Pierre said with an excited nod.
The others also nodded.
The next moment, Xiao Ran continued:
"I think so too. Next, as long as we pry open these red bricks, we will know what is hidden behind them."
"Everyone, step aside for now and let my employees open this secret door."
After saying that, he backed away from the wall.
Pierre and the others moved accordingly and gave way to their positions.
Subsequently, several guys from the exploration team immediately took action and began to break down the secret door.
Xiao Ran stood by and gave guidance to prevent these guys from being too reckless and causing huge irreparable losses!
In less than five minutes, all the red bricks used to seal the secret door had been taken out.
What appeared in front of everyone was a hidden grid made of oak. Although it was small, it was very delicate.
In this secret compartment, there are four exquisite black velvet bags, each of which is embroidered with the golden fleur-de-lis logo of the Bourbon dynasty.
Seeing this scene, there was an exclamation of exclamation at the scene and in front of countless live broadcasts.
"Wow! There is indeed a secret compartment here. Those velvet bags contain jewelry that seems to be the royal family of the Bourbon Dynasty."
"Obviously, this lucky bastard Sean is going to make a fortune again. The legendary Napoleon treasure may really be hidden in this historical building."
Just when everyone was amazed, Xiao Ran came to the secret grid again.
He quickly checked the situation in some dark rooms, then smiled and said:
"There are no traps in the secret room, so you can safely take out the things stored inside."
"And this secret compartment is not completely sealed, so there is basically no need to worry about oxidation problems."
"Of course, fading after exposure to light is difficult to avoid. I hope it won't be too serious."
As he spoke, he reached into the secret compartment and took out the smallest black velvet bag.
At the same time, two of his staff moved a table over for display and study.
The next moment, Xiao Ran gently squeezed the velvet bag in his hand, and then gently placed it on the table.
"There seems to be a cross inside, and it's wearing a necklace."
As he spoke, he gently untied the ribbon that tied the velvet bag and took out the jewelry contained in the bag.
What then appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a luxurious and exquisite gold cross.
This golden cross is only about ten centimeters high and about the same width. It is engraved with various exquisite patterns and inlaid with many diamonds and rubies and sapphires.
Due to the age and lack of maintenance, these diamonds and rubies and sapphires have lost their luster and become black.
If you want to make them shine brightly again, you still need to do some technical processing and cleaning, which is not difficult.
As this golden cross appeared, everyone was amazed again, and everyone was very excited.
Of course, more people are envious of unusual, even jealous, red eyes.
At this moment, Xiao Ran suddenly said in surprise:
"Hey! There are some words on the back of this golden cross, it seems to be a person's name."
"Rohan, this name seems familiar. Could it be that this is the golden cross of Cardinal Rohan?"
"Given Cardinal Rohan's greed for money, it seems possible."
"ah!"
With a burst of exclamations, everyone was stunned.
Before everyone could wake up, Xiao Ran suddenly changed the subject.
"Caroline, Pierre, you are relatively familiar with the history of the French Revolution. Take a look at this golden cross!"
With that said, he handed the golden cross to Caroline who was standing aside.
Looking at Caroline again, she was stunned on the spot, her eyes full of disbelief.
She didn't react until Xiao Ran brought the golden cross to her.
The next moment, she quickly reached out and took the golden cross, beaming with joy.
Pierre and Elaine stood next to her, their eyes shining with excitement.
Carlin, Henry and others who were also at the scene were all staring at the golden cross, their eyes filled with envy, and their eyes were so hot that they almost burned!
Next, Pierre, Caroline, and Elaine began to study this luxurious gold cross.
Xiao Ran checked the velvet bag on the table, but unfortunately there was nothing else in it.
Then he began to introduce the situation to everyone.
"As for Cardinal Rohan, anyone familiar with the history of the French Revolution should know this historical figure."
"It was this cardinal, his mistress, a prostitute, liar and thief, and a jeweler who concocted one of the most famous scams in French history."
"This scam was carried out in the name of Queen Mary. Although Queen Mary is innocent, this scam still caused a fatal blow to her reputation!"
"To a certain extent, it can also be said to be one of the reasons that contributed to the outbreak of the French Revolution."
"If this golden cross really belongs to Cardinal Rohan, it can be regarded as an antique cultural relic with special significance and is worth a lot of money!"
With his introduction, everyone had a certain understanding of this golden cross and Cardinal Rohan, as well as some of the historical stories hidden behind it.
As soon as Xiao Ran finished speaking, Lawrence continued:
"You are right, Sean. The scam planned by Cardinal Rohan and his mistress Jeanne is indeed the most famous scam in French history."
"Many historians believe that the hoax was one of the reasons for the outbreak of the French Revolution..."
While talking, Caroline suddenly said excitedly:
"Sean, your guess is very correct. This golden cross is indeed an item belonging to Cardinal Rohan. It is a very precious antique artifact!"
"The most direct evidence is that Cardinal Rohan once wore this golden cross in a portrait. It is irrefutable!"
Before the words could even be finished, Elaine had already displayed her phone in front of everyone.
On the screen of her phone was a portrait of Cardinal Rohan.
What she was wearing was the golden cross in Caroline's hand, which was extremely eye-catching!
