Chapter 37 Zhou Ruotong: Uncle, give me money! 【Ask for monthly ticket】
When dealing with smart people, there are really no secrets.
Li Yu took a deep breath, considered his words for a moment, and then said:
"There is indeed one, it seems to be the jade pendant of a certain Taifu in the Han Dynasty."
This It was Zhou Ruotong's turn to be surprised next time.
This is a jade pendant worn by the great master of the Han Dynasty. If this is brought to the capital, my uncle will be so happy that his nose will bubble, right?
She didn't care about drinking tea anymore:
"Can I take a look first? Don't worry, no matter how you deal with it in the end, I will keep it absolutely confidential and will not reveal anything to the outside world. Words. "
Cultural relic collectors are most afraid of their collections being passed around.
In the past, thieves broke into someone's home and not only robbed them of cultural relics, but also had their legs broken. The reason was that this person boasted about his collection at the wine table.
The B&B is in the wilderness, so I should be more afraid of being missed.
Li Yu stood up and said:
"Wait a moment, I'll get it."
He returned to the room, opened the cabinet with the key, and took out Yuan Wei's Carry jade pendant with you.
I don’t know how much money I can get if I sell it to the museum... Li Yu put the jade jade gift from Jia Xu deep into the cabinet, locked it, and then went downstairs with the jade pendant.
In the living room downstairs, Zhou Ruotong dug out the photos of Han Dynasty jade pendants taken in the museum.
There is a single jade pendant, and there are also jade pendants made up of several pieces.
It is a pity that these jade pendants are not only severely oxidized due to their age, but also the ropes tied to them are completely decayed.
Especially for jade pendants, most of them only have a few scattered pieces of jade left. The combination can only be completed by modern people's simulation and imagination, and it is rare to see them in their complete state.
While she was thinking, she saw Li Yu carrying a set of jade pendants downstairs. It actually had a rope and could be carried in his hand. It was obviously very strong.
God, if this was really a jade pendant from the Han Dynasty, it would be worthy of being included in the National Museum if it were so complete.
Where did Li Yu get it?
Thoughts were flying in Zhou Ruotong's mind, and the calmness and indifference of the past were completely gone.
"Look, Miss Zhou, can this be sold to a museum?"
Handing over the jade pendant, Li Yu was mentally prepared. If he couldn't sell it, he would find a way to borrow hundreds of thousands more. , first raise the project funds.
Sun Facai cheated Wang Chunxi once, but I can't cheat him a second time.
Zhou Ruotong took out the rubber gloves from his bag and put them on. Then he carefully took the jade pendant and observed it carefully.
There is no seal on the jade that is common on antique jade, and the rope is intact without any trace of decay. With this kind of quality, if you go to an ordinary antique store, you will definitely be kicked out by the shopkeeper.
But from the perspective of cultural relic research, this set of jade pendants is priceless.
The binding method and knot combination are very particular. It looks like a work of art. The relationship between several pieces of jade can easily remind people of the Five Virtues popular in the Han Dynasty.
"Every person wears a jade pendant... A gentleman has no reason, and the jade will not be removed from his body. A gentleman's jade is more virtuous."
Zhou Ruotong rubbed the jade pendant, recalling the words in "Book of Rites Tamamo" in his mind. The feeling of intertwining time and space.
Obviously this set of jade pendants is new and looks like a modern decoration, but regardless of the carving technique or the way the lanyard is weaved, it is proven to be a real cultural relic of the Han Dynasty.
How does this Li Yu always come up with new surprises?
She couldn't put it down and watched it several times. After calming down her mood, she said:
"This set of jade pendants is indeed a cultural relic of the Han Dynasty, but in order to be included in the National Museum, it needs to be sent to the capital for a series of tests...Li Yu, can you authorize me to do this?"
Zhou Ruotong was very excited. , if it can pass the official appraisal, then this set of jade pendants will probably cause a sensation in the archaeological circle.
The secret must be kept well, and Li Yu cannot be harassed and investigated.
Otherwise, if he had similar cultural relics, he would probably be beaten to death and not sell them to the museum again.
"Group a jade pendant?"
Li Yu has never heard of this term.
Zhou Ruotong held up the jade pendant and explained:
“This kind of accessory composed of several pieces of jade is called a jade pendant in the archaeological industry.”
Although Li Yu is not interested in the collection He was very interested in entering the museum, but he also wanted to know whether it would be enough to make up for the shortfall in funds for this project.
If not, then you have to find a way to get Lu Bu to get more gold cakes or other things. Otherwise, how can this office run if it cannot make ends meet?
"If it is sold to the National Museum, how much can it be sold for?"
His straightforward question confused Zhou Ruotong, who was immersed in academics.
"This...I can't say for sure. It's probably hundreds of thousands, but I have to go back to the capital for testing first. Only when the test results come out can we determine other things."
A few. One hundred thousand?
That’s almost enough to fill the hole.
Li Yu thought that he would have to pay for the project in the next few days, and couldn't help but ask:
"When will you leave?"
"Leave now...I'll give you ten first." Ten thousand yuan is considered a deposit. When the test results come out, it’s up to you to decide what to do with it.”
With such a treasure of academic value, Zhou Ruotong can’t wait to fly to the capital immediately. She picked up her mobile phone, first transferred 100,000 yuan to Li Yu, and then bought two high-speed rail tickets to Beijing.
Select a business class seat, place your order and pay.
While waiting for the ticket to be issued, Zhou Ruotong glanced at Ge Huihui, who was entertaining Brother Dao in the yard. This girl sent him to Yinzhou, and now it was his turn to send her back to Beijing.
It focuses on the deep love between sisters.
Li Yu received the deposit and asked curiously:
“If I find something better in the future, can I sell it to the National Museum through you?”
< br>
Zhou Ruotong shook his head gently:
“The research value of jade pendants is very high, but there is still a gap between the commercial art value and porcelain, so I can help cover it through my family connections. You want to get a national treasure. There is nothing I can do about the cultural relics."
Li Yu understood it as soon as he heard it.
Cultural relics that are cheaper than this set of jade pendants can be resold to the museum by asking Zhou Ruotong for help.
As for the expensive ones, just keep them for now.
Anyway, I already have a jade from the Warring States Period and a famous sword from the Han Dynasty. When more cultural relics are exchanged in the future, I can set up a private museum to display valuable cultural relics.
The most valuable cultural relic in history is probably the lost jade seal passed down from the country.
I remember that in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Sun Jian took the lead in rushing into the burned-out city of Luoyang. Under the guidance of the five-color divine light, he found the imperial seal from a dry well, and then he had the idea of going to Jiangdong to become independent.
Now that I have come into contact with the world of the Three Kingdoms, let Lu Bu do the dirty work of finding things.
Zhou Ruotong wrapped the jade pendant and stuffed it into the compartment of the bag. He handed the information he had obtained from his uncle to Li Yu, and then shouted to Ge Huihui who was playing outside:
"Hui Hui, let's go to the high-speed rail station. I have something I didn't bring, so I have to go home."
She didn't mention the jade pendant, not because she couldn't trust her old classmates, but mainly because it involved Li Yu. The fewer people who know, the better.
When the age of the jade pendant was determined, she would not mention Li Yu's identity. Instead, she would contact people from the National Museum in the name of "Unnamed Mr. Li."
Ge Huihui ran in and looked at the clock hanging on the wall:
“It’s not even two o’clock yet, why are you in such a hurry?”
"I have already bought the high-speed rail ticket. Let's go back quickly. I have to rush back today."
After saying that, Zhou Ruotong drank the tea in the cup, got up and walked out.
Ge Huihui had no choice but to put the bouncing ball back in his hand:
"Brother Dao, I will come over to play with you on Friday, and then I will take you to Longqi Mountain to pay homage. Good Luck Cat, I wish you great luck and good luck.”
The golden retriever was originally very excited, but after hearing this, he tilted his head thoughtfully and suddenly bared his teeth. He growled lowly and scratched the ground with his paws.
"What's wrong? Can't wait to go?"
Ge Huihui patted Brother Dao on the head, put on his coat, took his bag, and quickly caught up with Zhou Ruotong.
After getting in the car, the two waved to Li Yu and then drove down the mountain along the cement road.
"The girl driving the car is so beautiful, is she your girlfriend?"
Back in the yard, Wang Chunxi asked with a smile.
Li Yu shook his head:
"How can I be so lucky."
He took the Three Kingdoms information given by Zhou Ruotong, sat on the chair in the living room, and studied it carefully.
At two forty in the afternoon, on the high-speed train bound for Beijing.
Zhou Ruotong was sitting in the large business seat, eating small dried fish that Ge Huihui took out of the bag like a magic trick.
"Boss Li has invested a lot of money in his B&B, right?"
Hamster Hui hasn't stopped talking since he got in the car, either eating snacks or gossiping about various issues.
Zhou Ruotong wiped the oil stains on his fingers:
"I must have borrowed several million, but I don’t have much business and I often worry about money."
Well, if not If he is short of money, Li Yu probably won't be so eager to sell cultural relics to the museum.
Speaking of money, she suddenly remembered that her uncle had asked her to find cultural relics from the Han Dynasty, and said that there would be a huge reward if she found them.
Now that I have found a set of Han Dynasty jade pendants, let me ask my uncle for some reward to Li Yu, so as to relieve the financial pressure of this B&B owner.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ruotong opened WeChat and sent a message to his uncle Zhou Bingshan:
"Uncle, I asked someone to buy a set of Han Dynasty jade pendants today. I am on my way back to Beijing now. You Hurry up and arrange a test at the museum, and don’t forget to agree to my thank you fee.”
Zhou Bingshan was drinking tea at home, and when he saw this news, several questions popped up in his mind.
I just asked this girl yesterday, but I didn't expect to get a big harvest today. Yinzhou is indeed a historical city that has lasted for thousands of years. There are treasures everywhere. I will go around when I am not busy in the future.
He was thinking about asking about the specific situation when Zhou Ruotong couldn't wait to send another message:
"Uncle, send money!"
