Chapter 169: Come on, do you want to be the emperor?
"What does Miss Tu want to know?"
Qin Lang has thought about it. No matter what the other person's background is, there is no need to rush things. Slow things down, and he has the patience to take his time.
He looked around and saw people starting to enter the hot and sour noodle shop one after another. When he arrived at the meal at five or six o'clock, there were many people shouting at the shop waiting for the table to be turned over. If you want to talk about something, this is also the place. Not suitable.
He called the waiter to pay the bill, and Tu Hua said: "I'll do it."
Qin Lang did not refuse directly, but asked her with a smile: "Pay for the meal and buy coffee, Miss Tu. Which one do you want to choose?"
Tu Hua was stunned, looking at Qin Lang's generous smile, she couldn't help but smile.
“I choose to buy coffee.”
“I know Miss Tu is very particular about people!”
Qin Lang smiled and paid for two bowls of hot and sour noodles. The bill is settled.
The two of them went downstairs to drink coffee side by side. On the way, Qin Lang casually told her some information about Yuxi.
“For us Chinese people, the imperial seal is extremely important. This thing was originally made by our ancestor who was the emperor through the ages. After he unified the world, he ordered Prime Minister Li to make it. The inscription on it was ordered by The seal character "天" ("Shou Yongchang") was passed down to later generations as an imperial token. The specific material and shape were only recorded and circulated in history books. Over thousands of years, the original jade seal was lost several times in subsequent dynasty changes. Comeback is often accompanied by turmoil and war. To use the common saying that we ordinary people understand, whoever gets this thing will have smoke coming out of their ancestors' graves."
Tu Hua was listening carefully when she was suddenly caught. His teasing words made me laugh.
"What a good thing."
Qin Lang also smiled as he walked, "Taking this thing alone, it is indeed a good thing. The value of the jade seal alone is enough for ordinary people to enjoy themselves for eight lifetimes. It's spicy, let alone the significance of that thing. It's no exaggeration to say that it is priceless."
"Since ancient times, many heroes have broken their heads for it."
Tu Hua listened and nodded. As Qin Lang introduced, she seemed to understand more and more how Xie Yuchuan was often distracted and what he asked her after he got the jade seal.
The two of them happened to bypass the downward elevator and did not have to walk. Tu Hua asked curiously: "Boss Qin, tell me, how would you feel if you got a piece of jade seal?"
After listening to this, Qin Lang thought about the scene for a moment, without suppressing the upturned corners of his mouth. There was a sense of happiness in his voice, and said with a smile: "Don't say it, if I really want to receive a piece of jade seal one day, our old Qin The ancestors of the family kicked the coffin boards apart and rushed up to shout to me: "Good grandson, Ba Ba!"
Tu Hua thought for a while and asked seriously: "What if you do." Really, do you want to be the emperor?”
"Miss Tu, be careful where you step." Qin Lang reminded her to get off the elevator.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
The two continued chatting, and Qin Lang turned to Tu Hua and said, "How should I put it? We are now overthrowing the feudal monarchy. , the systems are different, and the country’s pursuits are also different. If the jade seal of the country is now alive, it is most likely to be lying in the national museum as a cultural relic, right?"
Tu Hua nodded.
Qin Lang's speech was very practical, "In our industry, cultural relics and antiques are different."
"Why are they different?"
"Why are they different? This The topic would be endless if we talk about it. Let’s take this jade seal as an example. Suppose the jade seal passed down by the country is hidden somewhere or in the hands of someone, then the person who collects it will definitely think that this thing is of high value. Antiques, let’s not talk about them on the table, let’s talk about them under the table. The big guys in the neighborhood asked you if you had such a thing. Would you say you are excited or not?”
Tu Hua thought for a while: “ I don’t know, this thing is of no use to me.”
Qin Lang: “…”
He curled his fingers at the corners of his eyes and added to himself: "Then Miss Tu must be the kind of person who will hand over the country's national flag after receiving the imperial seal." Tu Hua also thought about it seriously and said: "I I feel like I should hand it over to the country."
"Look, this thing has changed from an antique to a national cultural relic. With its emergence, those attached to the jade seal. As history unfolds in front of everyone, the meaning becomes completely different." Qin Lang opened the heavy glass door of the coffee shop for her with a smile.
Tu Hua nodded to him to express her gratitude, and the two of them entered the store one after another.
At the bar, the clerk pushed the frame on the bridge of his nose with a gentle attitude: "Hello, what would you like to drink?"
Tu Hua looked at Qin Lang.
Qin Lang: "A cup of hot latte."
Tu Hua said to the clerk: "A cup of hot latte and an iced Americano, thank you."
There was no one in the store More or less, the two of them found a place with comfortable lighting facing the street to sit down. Soon the clerk brought two cups of coffee. Qin Lang felt a toothache when he looked at the ice cubes in Tuhua's cup.
“Didn’t you say that drinking too much cold food is not good for girls?”
Tu Hua said lightly: "Do you know why I can live to be ninety-nine?"
Qin Lang laughed out loud, raised his hand and apologized: "Sorry! Sorry! I know this joke, I'm sorry. , mind your own business."
Tu Hua smiled slightly and did not worry about this trivial matter.
Qin Lang took off his coat and put it on the narrator's chair. He sat down and folded his long legs habitually, turning slightly sideways to take a sip of hot coffee.
"Now let me answer Miss Tu's previous question. The hypothetical question you asked me is, if I get the jade seal, would I want to be a king?"
Tu Huacai He picked up the straw and threw it into the cup, took a sip from the cup, nodded, and waited for his answer.
Qin Lang put the hot cup on his lap, thought about it seriously, and said: "To discuss this matter, we need to refer to the background of the times. It is unrealistic to discuss this issue in our current background. Just like Miss Tu, today's When a person obtains a jade seal, he either knows that the value of the cultural relic on it is handed over to the state, or he keeps it in his own hands. But there is a problem with collecting antiques. It must either be circulated or reappear when the owner dies. Honor and monetary value.” Yuxi, I may really not be able to control the overwhelming desire in my heart."
Tu Hua laughed, "As for that?"
"As for." Qin Lang suddenly became serious, but soon he explained to her in a relaxed tone: "If you don't look at the meaning of the jade seal, it is just a relatively valuable object, but once this thing gets involved with the imperial power , which is of extraordinary significance.”
“Our Chinese ancestors like to say that they are given by fate when they win the country, and they like to pay attention to the name of each division when they go to war. So what is this name?”
Tu Hua drank coffee and listened.
Qin Lang said: "This name sometimes means eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor, sometimes it means asking for life for the people when the people are desperate, sometimes it means being a traitor and rebellious, sharing the emperor's worries... Wait a minute, but There is one thing that can easily raise this flag without these names."
"Is it the Jade Seal?"
"Yes, the one who wins the Jade Seal will win the world."
< br>Tu Hua understood, pondered for a while, and drank a few sips, "Boss Qin, do you think the merits of Conglong Zhigong are great?"
