Chapter 882 Cool Wind
For Tokyo, October is the month with the most good weather in the year.
During this month, sports meets are held from elementary school to high school.
Even family members will come to cheer for the children's games and competitions at the sports games.
Generally divided into red and white groups to compete for victory, the children are very interested.
Companies and enterprises also hold sports games at this time, with not only employees but also their families participating. This is seen as an important event that can help unite the company.
In addition, most of the autumn festival activities are concentrated in this month. In Japan, farming rituals to thank the gods for blessing the rice harvest are not only still preserved across the country, but are as grand and lively as in the past.
Especially October 10th, which is also Sports Day, is one of Japan’s unique legal holidays.
This is a festival to commemorate the opening day of the Tokyo Olympic Games on October 10, 1964, to love sports and recognize the importance of cultivating physical and mental health.
Therefore, Tokyo will hold various sports activities on this day, and many sports events are held in the Education Forest Park located in Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo.
So on this day in Tokyo, the entire city is very lively. It can be said to be a day for everyone to go out together.
Not only teenagers and adults, but also children and the elderly can find sports that match them.
There are also parent-child activities, which invite the whole family to participate, which is very spectacular.
But having said that, for Ning Weimin, who was in a foreign country and had everything going wrong, this day seemed a bit boring.
You know, a national holiday in Tokyo means that he has nothing serious to do.
Stocks cannot be speculated, transactions cannot be negotiated, procedures cannot be completed, and everything that needs to be done must be suspended.
Although there are people everywhere in the city, there are no relatives or friends around him who can accompany him, which makes him feel uncomfortable no matter where he goes.
Coupled with the matter of the bookstore, the inventory clearance was not going very smoothly.
The Japanese are not that easy to deal with, and Japanese businessmen are even more greedy and like to take advantage of others.
Their reply is that you can buy it, but not with a 50% discount.
Everyone wants to seek a lower discount and directly bids for 20 or 30% off.
This is very distressing.
Although Ning Weimin had the ambition to cut off the strength of a strong man, he never expected that 100 million would turn into 20 or 30 million, which would be faster than the stock price falling.
In addition, the side effects of the appreciation of the local currency on the export economy have begun to appear.
During this period, the Japanese stock market also began to turn downward, and actually the market continued to fall to the lows before the Plaza Accord.
Co-authored by Ning Weimin, almost all the profits he made from the stock market in the early stage were vomited away. It was basically a roller coaster ride.
However, his stockbroker began to pester him endlessly, taking the trouble to call him or visit him at home to persuade him to sell his stocks.
Do you think Ning Weimin can feel better in these days when there is so much noise around him and he is alone? What a depressing person!
Of course, everyone has ways to adjust themselves.
Especially for people who are doing big things, it is impossible if they don’t have strong mental endurance and don’t know how to restrain and improve bad emotions.
Of course Ning Weimin also has his own tricks.
Actually, he planned to go to the Tokyo National Museum in Ueno Park, Taito District, where he wanted to visit parks and museums to hide and relax.
He heard someone say that there are a lot of Chinese cultural relics in Japan. He wanted to see them, take photos, be influenced by art, and feel the charm of Chinese culture.
But the problem is that after going there, he realized that on days like this, it was better not to go.
Because even though Ning Weimin had been mentally prepared in advance, he still did not expect that the Chinese cultural relics plundered by the Japanese were of high quality, large in quantity, diverse in variety, and complete in history.
Even though he prides himself on being well-informed and personally owns some high-quality cultural relics that can be entered into the Forbidden City, he can easily be crushed to the limit of his psychological endurance!
I have to admit that the exhibits in the Tokyo National Museum cover almost five thousand years of Chinese art. The precious cultural relics of all Chinese dynasties are collected here.
From prehistoric stone tools to bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
From the pottery and portrait stones of the Western Han Dynasty to the famous Tang Sancai of the Tang Dynasty.
There are also precious porcelains from JDZ during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, as well as musical instruments, chess, calligraphy and paintings by masters of Ming and Qing calligraphy and painting.
For example, the well-known calligraphy works of Wang Xizhi of the Jin Dynasty, pomegranate pictures, peony pictures, loyalty and filial piety pictures and other calligraphy and paintings by famous artists of the Ming and Qing Dynasties are all included.
And because the largest collection of Chinese cultural relics in the entire museum is so numerous, the Tokyo National Museum has built an Oriental Museum specifically for these cultural relics.
It can even be said that for every one hundred national treasures here, eighty-seven are Chinese cultural relics. Even the treasure of the museum is a Chinese cultural relic.
For a place like this, not to mention Ning Weimin's own collection, even the Treasures Hall of the Forbidden City in Beijing may not be comparable to the collection here.
Like the skull of BJ the ape-man, the stone Buddha group in Baoying Temple of Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, the Queen Mother Money Tree of the Western Han Dynasty, the bronze statue of the Warring States Period unearthed from AH, the self-propelled gecko unearthed in Sichuan...
Ning Weimin became more and more angry as he watched. He was really angry.
That's not all. What he couldn't accept the most was that at the end of many introductions to cultural relics, the Japanese would always proudly write a sentence - "Please appreciate the taste pursued by the ancient Chinese. Being able to appreciate such a complete work was only available in this museum in the world."
This sentence made him intolerable and extremely uncomfortable!
The Tokyo National Museum is just one of the hiding places for stolen goods in Japan.
There are thousands of museums throughout Japan that collect Chinese cultural relics, and the number of collections can be calculated in the millions.
Thinking of this, look at these precious cultural relics.
The unhappy feeling in Ning Weimin's heart can be summed up not just as anger, but also as frustration and hatred.
He even felt an indescribable sadness and sadness in his heart, and he wanted to curse and cry!
To be honest, after coming to Japan, Ning Weimin's impression of the Japanese has greatly improved after a period of in-depth understanding and contact.
Not only did he feel that many Japanese civilians were not much different from us, many of them were the same as ordinary domestic workers, he even found many people around him with very excellent qualities.
For example, Taniguchi is amiable and enthusiastic. Kagawa is serious and polite in his work.
I never expected that even a bookstore owner could be so considerate of two college students working part-time.
He was inexplicably impressed by the sense of responsibility and humanity shown by this kind of operator.
However, after seeing the Tokyo National Museum today, Ning Weimin’s Japanese thoughts have changed.
From this moment on, Ning Weimin felt that he would no longer have any psychological barriers to his future behavior of adding insult to injury.
Precisely because he took photos with such emotions, after several hours, Ning Weimin was not only so tired that his back ached and his arms ached, but his face also became very ugly due to the influence of his emotions.
He knew that it would be impossible for him to take pictures of the Chinese cultural relics collected here in one day with the camera he brought.
And if I keep reading, I am afraid that I will be so angry that I will vomit blood on the spot. So after taking five rolls of film in the museum, Ning Weimin left here with nostalgia and pain as if his veins had been broken.
He secretly swore in his heart that one day, he would let the little devil himself send these things back to China!
Needless to say, on the way back, Ning Weimin, who had just received a patriotic education, became even more out of tune with the lively environment around him.
His mood also got worse, and he was not even in the mood to eat.
I took the car directly back to my apartment in Akasaka. It was almost 3:30 in the afternoon.
Normally, there would be almost nothing worth being happy about this day.
The best thing to do is go back and make yourself some delicious food to comfort your stomach, which is already growling with hunger.
Then turn on the TV, drink beer, watch news and Japanese dramas, and practice listening and speaking.
Finally, like the Japanese, take a hot bath and go to bed as soon as possible to get some sleep.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a new day, and my luck may be better.
That’s it.
However, the reality is so incredible. Just like the movie "Forrest Gump" said, life is really a box of chocolates. You never know what you will get, and you never know what the next piece will be. What does it taste like.
Ning Weimin never expected that he would be downstairs where he lived.
On the steps at the door of the apartment, I found a very beautiful and elegant tall girl.
Originally he thought it was a Japanese girl waiting for a friend.
I couldn’t help but take a closer look at the girl’s long black satin-like hair and her model-like beautiful figure.
But who would have thought that the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became. As a result, when he walked up the steps, the girl heard the noise and turned her face.
Okay! As a result, Ning Weimin was completely stunned!
Because he never expected that this girl was not an outsider, but an acquaintance of his.
Qu Xiao! It’s actually this girl!
"Hey? Xiaoqu, why are you here?"
At this time, in Ning Weimin's eyes, standing on the white steps, the slim Qu smiled, just like on the beach, A piece of white and delicate pebbles is illuminated by the sun, smooth and shiny.
She wore an orange sweater, light gray jeans and blue sneakers.
Although the clothes are ordinary and a bit old-fashioned, don't forget that she is a professional model.
The long legs, slender waist, and straight back still give this ordinary clothes a sense of fashion.
Especially the feet without socks, the exposed white porcelain round ankles are very cute and exquisite.
The shoelaces are tied very casually, even messy.
If someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder saw it, I'm afraid they would have to help her tie it up again.
However, this is exactly a kind of unpretentious temperament that Japanese girls will never have.
"Brother Ning! You are finally back! Is it unexpected? I came to see you..."
Qu Xiao wore a fresh and neat ponytail, with a transparent smile on her face Smile, like an apple just picked in the morning.
She walked down the steps happily, moving like a deer, jumping up and down to the opposite side of Ning Weimin.
In this way, the height of the two of them is barely a good match.
To be honest, Ning Weimin is 1.78 meters tall and Qu smiles 1.73 meters tall, even though they are both in good shape.
But if they stand together, Ning Weimin, a girl who is too good, will still seem a bit lacking in masculinity.
This is because Qu Xiao was not wearing high heels, otherwise the gap between the two people would be even greater.
“Hey, how did you know I live here?”
"Hehe, I made a special international long distance call back to the capital, and then I asked for your Tokyo address from the company."
"Huh? Let me tell you, I just moved here only a few days ago. There’s really no other way to ask except telling the company.”
“So I’m smart, right? But, as expected of Brother Ning, the place you live in is pretty good.”
"Hey, let's not talk about this. Aren't you supposed to be in France? Why are you here in Japan again? Are you just here to see me, or have something happened? Also, do the leaders of the team know that you came to see me? By the way, why aren’t you two together?”
“Look, you asked me so many questions in one go. , I have been waiting for you for so long, and I am already tired and thirsty. You must let me drink a glass of water, right?”
"Ah, yes, then... let's go upstairs."
Ning Weimin just responded, but then immediately regretted it.
“Hey, wait, wait, no, no, my house is in a mess and I haven’t cleaned it up yet. Let’s not go up there. Just find a place nearby.”
“ Don’t go to such trouble. It’s normal for boys’ dormitories to be messy. I’ll help you clean it up. Girls are suitable for this.” It’s labor. I’m not Zhou Papi. Besides, there’s nothing in the refrigerator at home, not to mention I haven’t eaten yet..."
"Well, men are all face-saving, so I'll give you some privacy. I'll come back next time and visit your mansion. Then let's find a place to eat quickly and I'll treat you."
"Stop being ridiculous, where can I get you to spend money? Oh, by the way, how long have you been here? Have you been waiting for me for a long time?"
"Well, it hasn't been long. ...I...I wandered around for a while..."
"Looking at the insincerity of your words. It must be a long time. I'm really sorry. But if you had called in advance, you wouldn't have. This kind of problem arises. Did you forget to ask for the phone number?”
“No, I asked and called, but no one answered.”
"No one answered, it means I'm not here. Then you still come? Are you stupid?"
"I'm lucky, I didn't wait for you..."
"You Girl, you are really good..."
As he said that, the two of them walked together.
I don’t know what happened, but suddenly, Ning Weimin felt at peace, and all the irritability and hostility of the day disappeared.
The arrival of Qu Xiao was like bringing a cool breeze to his heart...
