Kuvaevich Antonov left the cause and effect of hiding this treasure on the back of the treasure map, so Yang Jing also knew that the amount of this treasure was not very large, and the gold and everything was taken away by General Kolchak to attract the attention of the Red Army, and the more precious works of art were taken north by Antonov to hide.
Therefore, as early as after getting the treasure map of the last tsar drawn by Kuvaevich Antonov, Yang Jing realized that the treasures hidden in this treasure must not be simple, but he really didn't expect these treasures to be so precious.
Some antiques need to be rescued after they are unearthed or out of the water.
Even if the treasures of the last tsar were not buried in the ground or left in the wrecks for hundreds of years, they had been wrapped in tarpaulins and heavy wooden crates for more than a hundred years, and if they were opened, they would definitely cause irreversible damage.
However, in order to carry out rescue protection, special professional equipment is required, such as argon filling tanks, such as nitrogen cabinets and other equipment, which are very necessary.
With these equipment, the protection of antiques in these equipment can avoid excessive oxidation of antiques and best protect antiques.
But Yang Jing doesn't have these professional equipment at hand now.
But don't worry, his storage space is better than those professional equipment.
Can those professional devices match the storage space of a near-vacuum?
And the antique put into the storage space, Yang Jing only needs a consciousness to control this antique freely.
That's why Yang Jing didn't let anyone follow him into this cabin, because he needed to use the storage space to see what treasures were in these big boxes.
Yang Jing first put a slender box nearly two meters high into the storage space, and then with a movement of consciousness, the tightly wrapped wooden box on the outside was obediently opened in the storage space.
And when the box was opened to reveal the sculpture inside, Yang Jing's eyes almost popped out!
There are ten recognized sculptures in the world today, and the first statue is recognized as the first statue is the marble sculpture called "David" created by Michelangelo Bonaroti, one of the three masters of the European Renaissance in the early 16th century.
Even the well-known Venus with a broken arm is lower than this "David" in the ranking of the Western art world.
The "David" sculpture is also called "David's Human Body", and you can know what this sculpture is carved by looking at the name.
That's right, this famous sculpture depicts a standing fruit man.
David is based on mythological stories from the Old Testament.
David was a biblical figure who was king of Israel from 1010 to 970 BCE.
During his reign, he overthrew the rule of the alien Philistines and unified Israel.
This hero has a wonderful and moving story in his youth.
At that time, King Saul of Israel was in power, and the Philistines invaded Israel.
Among the Philistines was a warrior named Goliath, eight feet tall, wearing a steel helmet and armor, and he was invincible on the battlefield, and the Israelites suffered numerous casualties.
Goliath went to war for more than 40 days, but the Israelites did not dare to fight, and even David's three brothers went to the front to fight, and David could not participate in the war because he was too young, so he went to the front line to deliver food to his brothers.
When David reached the front line, he saw the enemy giant Goliath rushing up, and the Israelites could not resist.
At this time, David was full of anger and demanded to go to war, to be ashamed of the Snow Nation.
When King Saul saw that David had great faith, he gave him his armor.
David refused the armor and was still dressed as a shepherd boy, and he led the crowd into battle and scolded Goliath loudly, and when Goliath was dizzy from the scolding, David threw a stone with a stone thrower and knocked Goliath unconscious.
David rushed forward, drew his blade, cut off Goliath's head, and saved Israel.
Since then, the young David has become a nationally famous hero.
When Michelangelo made "David", he did not follow the scene of his predecessors showing David trampling the enemy's head under his feet after defeating the enemy, but chose the state of David when he greeted the battle.
In fact, the creation of David began before Michelangelo was born, when the inspector of the Office of Works of the Duomo in Florence intended to commission a series of twelve large Old Testament statues to be placed on the arch of the Basilica of Santa Maria del Fiore.
The first two sculptures were completed at the beginning of the fifteenth century, the terracotta statues of Joshua and Hercules, and later, the famous sculptor Agstino prepared to make David, and found a suitable piece of marble from a stone quarry in Carrara, but Agastino only completed the initial creation of David, that is, the general shape of the legs, feet, and torso.
For other reasons, Agostino did not continue to create, and the marble was forgotten for twenty-five years.
It was not until 1601 that Michelangelo, who was only 26 years old, took over the marble and continued to work on it.
It took Michelangelo two and a half years to complete the carving of the marble, resulting in the now world-famous sculpture of David.
It can be said that from the beginning to the completion of this sculpture, it has gone through the hands of two master sculptors, and it has lasted for a full forty years!
Perhaps it has gone through too many changes that this statue has finally become a world-famous sculpture.
With this sculpture, Michelangelo also became the most prestigious sculptor in the Western world at that time, and was finally named "one of the three masters of the Renaissance" by the Western art world.
"David" occupies the most important position in Michelangelo's life, which is the basis why he became one of the "three masters of the Renaissance", you can imagine how high the artistic value of this sculpture is.
Perhaps the value of "David" is not as high as "Venus with a Broken Arm", the treasure of the Louvre in Paris, but it is definitely not low, and the two are comparable in terms of artistry and value.
How much is Venus with a Broken Arm?
I'm afraid no one knows about this, just like if you ask how much the "Mona Lisa's Smile" is, there is no one definitive answer at all, the only answer is only one - priceless.
The statue that appeared in front of me was a "David", a blue-black statue of "David".
This is certainly not the white marble statue of David in the collection of the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, nor the two replicas that stand in the middle of Piazzale Michelangelo and in front of the City Hall of Florence, but a bronze statue of David.

The original David sculpture is nearly four meters tall and weighs six tons.
The bronze sculpture in front of me is only about 15 meters high, except for the wrong color and much smaller size, it is no different from the real "David" sculpture in every aspect.
At first, Yang Jing thought that this sculpture was a replica, but when he used his identification skills to identify it, he was ecstatic to learn that this bronze "David" sculpture was also made by Michelangelo!
The items that Yang Jing put into the storage space, as long as Yang Jing is willing, then he can also use identification skills to identify the items without touching them.
It's just that he really never expected that this bronze sculpture was not a replica, but a real one from Michelangelo.
What a surprise it was!
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, I'm afraid no one would have thought that Michelangelo would make such a bronze "David" sculpture, right?
Moreover, there is no record of Michelangelo's production of the bronze "David" sculpture in history, and if Yang Jing did not know that the identification skills could not be wrong, even he would not have dared to believe that the bronze "David" was made by Michelangelo.
But if you think about it, David is definitely Michelangelo's pinnacle in that respect, even if Michelangelo was only twenty-six years old when he created the sculpture.
But who can deny the excellence of "David"?
In the face of such a pinnacle, how could Michelangelo not like it?
You must know that Michelangelo used to elaborate a model of David before he carved its stone carving.
After the completion of the colossus of David, the model was carefully treasured by Michelangelo, if he didn't particularly like this sculpture, how could he treasure the model of David?
However, after the creation of "David", it belonged to Florence, not to him, so Michelangelo could only treasure the model of "David".
If he even treasured the model of David, why couldn't Michelangelo make a bronze sculpture of David himself?
It's definitely possible.
Michelangelo was not only good at stone sculpture, he was also very good at bronze sculpture.
In 2015, the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, England, exhibited a pair of bronze sculptures, which depicted two handsome and masculine men riding mightily on a vicious leopard.
The pair of bronze statues belonged to a British collector and caused a sensation when they were exhibited.
A Swiss research institute used neutron scanning to conduct further research and determined that the bronze sculpture was made in the early 16th century.
Peter Abraham, professor of clinical anatomy at the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom, suggested that every detail of the sculpture is a standard Michelangelo – from the strong abs to the navel, which is exactly the same as the marble sculpture "David".
In addition, Michelangelo's painting of the human body in the Sistine Chapel is also quite similar to this sculpture.
Eventually, the bronze pair proved to have been created by Michelangelo between 1506 and 1508, when the artist was 30 years old and eager to succeed.
This pair of bronze sculptures is also recognized as the only pair of Michelangelo's bronze sculptures in the world that have survived so far.
But is that pair of bronze sculptures really the only remaining bronze sculpture of Michelangelo in the world?
If that pair is the only one left, then what is this bronze sculpture in front of you?
And just after the appraisal of the appraisal skills, this bronze "David" sculpture was created by Michelangelo from 1605 to the end of the creation in 1606.
Yang Jing has no doubt that once this bronze "David" sculpture is unveiled, the sensation it will cause is definitely not comparable to that pair of leopard-riding men.
This is the bronze "David" after all!
The marble "David" sculpture is well known, but have you heard of the bronze "David" also by Michelangelo?
Have you seen that?
