Walker put the box on the table in front of Ye Tian, then took the key from Isco, opened the lock, and then opened the dark red box.
The next moment, the thing in the box appeared in front of everyone.
This is a black jaguar mask. To be precise, it is an obsidian jaguar mask. The carvings are vivid and exquisite, lying flat in the box.
Like most Indian masks, the shape of this obsidian mask is very exaggerated. The carved jaguar has wide eyes and murderous eyes, with a mouth wide open, as if to choose someone to eat.
In particular, the jaguar's four upper and lower fangs all protrude out of the mouth, with interlaced fangs, and are extremely sharp and huge. They are completely disproportionate to the jaguar's mouth and head.
The surface of this obsidian jaguar mask is engraved with Mayan hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns and patterns. In the center of the jaguar's forehead, there is also a huge top ruby inlaid.
It's just that the age is too old, and the preservation conditions may not be very good. The obsidian mask and the ruby on it have poor gloss and look utterly rusty.
But it doesn't matter, as long as you use professional means to deal with them a little, they will renew their dazzling light and amaze the world.
The moment they saw this obsidian jaguar mask, everyone on the scene, including Ye Tian, suddenly brightened their eyes, and everyone was excited.
Especially seeing the huge top ruby on the mask, everyone immediately understood why Isco was so cautious and asked everyone to keep it secret.
In a country like Honduras, with Isco's identity and status, if you let others know that he has such a top ruby, it will definitely lead to annihilation, and there is no possibility of being spared.
"Wow! It is actually an obsidian jaguar mask, and it is inlaid with a huge ruby. Whether it is the obsidian used to carve the mask or the ruby, it looks like a top-notch item!"
"There is no doubt that this is a valuable antique relic. I just don't know what mask it was from the era of the Mayan Empire?"
There was a sound of exclamation at the scene, and everyone was so shocked by the obsidian jaguar mask that they all stood up and quickly rushed to this side, looking at the obsidian mask in the box.
Ye Tian looked at the mask lying flat in the box, then reached into the box and gently took out the mask.
With his movements, everyone immediately saw that the inside of this mask was also engraved with Mayan hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns and patterns, which was breathtaking.
"Mr. Isco, can you tell me how you got this obsidian jaguar mask? I can tell you very clearly that this is a very valuable top antique artifact, very rare."
Ye Tian asked with a smile, flipping through the obsidian jaguar mask reluctantly.
When the voice fell, Professor Delgado immediately translated his words.
Isco looked at Ye Tian and the obsidian mask in his hand before giving the answer.
"Of course, Mr. Steven, this obsidian jaguar mask was dug out by my father from his own cornfield. It has been dug out for more than 30 years and has been hidden in our house."
Hearing Isco's words, everyone at the scene nodded, and everyone was envious.
It's a pity that such a top-notch antique cultural relic of great value is not yours!
Ye Tian looked at Isco, then smiled and nodded and said:
"It turns out that this is a valuable antique cultural relic, anyone can see, especially the top ruby inlaid on the mask, of extremely high quality and high value.
I’m a little curious, why have you not sold this mask for more than 30 years, nor have you pried this top ruby for sale to improve your family’s life?
According to my estimation, if you sold this obsidian jaguar mask early, or pryed off this ruby for sale, you should have left Copan Valley long ago and lived a better life.
Since you haven't sold this obsidian mask, why did you want to come here for appraisal and try to sell this valuable antique relic? Can you tell us why? "
Not only Ye Tian, but this is also the question in the hearts of other people on the scene. Everyone temporarily moved their eyes from the obsidian jaguar mask and all looked at Isco.
After listening to Professor Delgado’s translation, Isco gave a wry smile before saying helplessly:
"We have always wanted to sell this obsidian jaguar mask to improve the lives of our family, and even leave here to live in the city, but in Honduras, who can we sell this treasure to?
If we want to sell this obsidian jaguar mask, we must find someone to appraise and value it. How many professionals are there in Honduras? Even if there is, we don't know any of us.
In Honduras, those who can afford this obsidian jaguar mask must be rich and powerful people. We can't afford any of those people. In front of those people, we are just a colony of ants.
In the process of finding someone for appraisal and appraisal and dealing with buyers, we do not know the details of the other party. At that time, our family will probably get death instead of wealth and happiness.
You know the public security environment in Honduras. We don't even dare to tell anyone that we have this obsidian jaguar mask in our house, and we don't dare to take it out, otherwise we might be robbed.
Starting from the Copan Valley where we live, no matter which road we choose, Honduras or Guatemala, El Salvador or Nicaragua, the security situation in every country is extremely poor and full of dangers.
Choose to leave here by plane and go to other countries to trade this treasure? That is impossible. We are just farmers without any power. Every inspection along the way is a gate to hell.
In this case, we can only keep this secret, hide this obsidian jaguar mask, wait for the right opportunity to come, and then sell this treasure. This will last thirty years."
Hearing this, everyone at the scene could not help but nodded lightly, secretly feeling deeply, and secretly admiring the forbearance of Isco and his family.
Hernando and the other Hondurans who were also in the banquet hall, their faces were blue and white, and their expressions were somewhat embarrassing!
However, they couldn't say anything to refute it. They knew better than anyone what the law and order situation in Honduras was and the social status of these Mayan farmers!
After a short pause, Isco continued:
"Last night I heard that you will hold a treasure appraisal meeting here, and will purchase some valuable antique relics at a reasonable price. Upon hearing this news, I took the risk to come here with this mask.
Before that, I have seen reports about you on TV, as well as a series of reports about the tripartite joint exploration of the Mayan Empire Golden City~EbookFREE.me~ to learn about your background and situation.
I know that you are an exploration company from New York, USA, and the world's top treasure hunting company. You have discovered many famous treasures. Most importantly, you have a good reputation.
Mr. Steven, you are the world's top professional treasure hunter and antique art appraisal expert. You have a sharp vision, a good reputation, and are very generous. Because of this, I choose to trust you!
I hope you can help identify this obsidian jaguar mask and give a reasonable valuation. If possible, I hope you can buy this mask and we will be relieved! "
"Hahaha, Mr. Isco, thank you for your trust. It seems that I came at the right time, otherwise, I will miss this very rare antique artifact. I am very happy to help you get rid of this trouble!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, and nodded gently at Isco.
