Chapter 478: A True National Treasure! (Part 2)
"What the hell is that?"
Hearing this, the other drivers became more and more curious about what the finale of this auction would be!
The famous Heart of the Ocean is not worth mentioning in front of it, and it is enough to see its value.
"I don't know what it is, but it seems that there are rumors that it has something to do with Xia Guo?"
The previous driver deliberately lowered his voice.
"It has something to do with Xia Guo, it can't be those beast heads, right?"
"No! No, the beast head is good, but it's not at that level yet. ”
"That's it."
Xia Guo, Shangjing City, Erhuanli, Cultural Management Bureau,
At this time, it was already time for people to go home from work, but the lights were still on in a certain office of the Cultural Affairs Bureau.
Inside, Director Ding Yang was sitting at his desk with a frown, and two deputy directors were sitting opposite him.
"Are you sure?"
Rubbing his temples, Ding Yang opened his mouth in a low voice.
"Bureau Ding, it has been confirmed, it is genuine. ”
A deputy director nodded solemnly.
"What can I do about this? Everything else is easy to say, even the various cultural relics that were stolen from the Mogao Grottoes by those robbers back then are taken away by others, but if this one is taken away by others, where will we put Xia Guo's face?"
For the first time, Ding Yang suddenly felt that the position of director of the Cultural Administration was not so easy to sit in.
"Bureau Ding, has this matter been reported?
After a moment of silence, another deputy chief spoke.
Recently, many countries are preparing to use this matter to make a fuss, and if the country is used by those countries with ulterior motives, it will have a huge adverse impact, and it will even cause controversy among the people.
Of course, the official can't come up with that much money!"
Ding Yang couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, the Xia State official, including the Cultural Affairs Bureau, also secretly controls many companies, and every year they will grant a certain amount of credit to buy some lost cultural relics from overseas.
But this time, it's really not something that can be done with a line of credit.
"Then now we can only count on the merchants of our Xia Kingdom, as long as they are photographed by them, our Xia Kingdom can at least retain some face!
Hearing that the above could not participate due to various considerations, the deputy director who spoke also sighed.
It is reported that those families that have been inherited from the West for hundreds of years have come. It has only been a few years since the Xia Kingdom developed, and the rich people in China are far from being able to compare with those families! The most important thing is that most of the rich people in the Xia Kingdom are net worth from listed companies, and they have a lot of bank loans. ”
Ding Yang shook his head.
According to preliminary estimates, the final transaction price of this item is very likely to exceed the GDP of some provinces in Xia for half a year or even a year.
This is actually the reason why the above cannot participate.
No matter how valuable a cultural relic is, it is a cultural relic after all, and there is no way to compare it with the basic people's livelihood.
Think about it, if the official comes forward to spend a province's comprehensive GDP to buy an antique, in addition to having a significant impact on the country's economy, it will also make the people have opinions.
As soon as the news broke out, there would certainly be another uproar in the country. ”
A deputy director leaned back in his chair.
As you can imagine, the spearhead of public opinion will definitely be aimed at the Cultural Affairs Bureau.
"Hey, Bureau Ding, why don't we give Principal Wu a call and see if there is a way for him there? After all, Principal Wu is also our official person, and if he makes a move, there may be hope. ”
There was another silence, and one of the deputy directors suddenly thought of something, and then spoke.
"Principal Wu, forget it this time! He has already resisted too much for Xia Guo, and it is estimated that he has been busy with the matter of Ma Wen Company for a while now!"
Hearing what the deputy said, Ding Yang waved his hand.
In his opinion, Wu Shuang certainly has an official status, but his real mission is actually to build Guyuan into a new economy, and then lead the entire Sulan Province out of poverty and become rich.
The Bimawen incident a month ago was Gu Yuan's courage to stand up and resist.
Looking for Guyuan again this time?
What if Gu Yuan broke the capital chain because of this incident?
Isn't it because of a small loss!
In addition, the Guyuan Group now seems to be very large, but it still has to repay tens of billions of investments every year, and there is not much cash at all.
"So what then?"
The deputy director also knew that he had indeed taken it for granted just now.
The construction on Gu Yuan's side is in full swing, and it suddenly costs so much money to buy antiques, not to mention that Gu Yuan himself disagrees, even if the above knows it, it is estimated that it will be stopped.
Again, Xia Guo's face is important, but the basic livelihood is more important.
Driven by Guyuan, the economy of several counties and cities in its vicinity has begun to grow by leaps and bounds, especially the recent Shaqin County, which has the most obvious benefits.
Many people can earn more than they have earned in the past 10 years.
Such a good situation is what the above wants to see the most.
"Now I can only go with the flow and resign myself to fate, hoping that when the time comes, I can rush out of a dark horse and bring this national treasure back to China. ”
Ding Yang slowly sat up straight.
"Dark horse?"
The office was silent again.
The sun rises and sets, and in the blink of an eye, there are only four days left before the auction officially begins.
In New City, Wu Shuang stayed in the suite and just finished dealing with some things in Gu Yuan.
"It seems that the impact of the weather is really not small. ”
Muttering to himself, Wu Shuang closed his laptop.
Just now Wang Ya sent a report, which shows that the number of tourists who have come to Guyuan in recent days has dropped to less than 20,000, and the Guyuan Inn and the Star Picking Tower are fine, but many rooms on the side of Daming Palace have been vacant.
Just the day before yesterday, there was a freezing rain in Weiwu City as a whole, because the road surface was icy, and the highway leading to Guyuan had to be temporarily closed.
As you can imagine, as the weather gets worse, the number of tourists will decrease even further.
"If the airport and the high-speed rail station are connected, it will be relatively better!"
Walking to the window, Wu Shuang looked at the street scene outside.
New City is very prosperous, it really deserves to be a world-class metropolis, even the magic capital of Xia Kingdom, Shangjing, and Donghai are still a certain gap compared to it.
As for Gu Yuan, he is not even a scum in front of New York City.
"Jingle Bell"
Just when Wu Shuang secretly sighed, his private phone suddenly rang.
Take it out and take a look, it's Qiao Shan who called.
"What's wrong? Shanzi?"
Answered, Wu Shuang asked.
"Mr. Wu, there was a super exciting news just now, and the things that appeared at this auction are unimaginable. A few beast heads are really nothing in front of it!"
Soon, Qiao Shan's hurried voice came from the other end of the phone.
