Chapter 67: The Roots of the Forty-Nine Cities
Guan Nushan is right, in this Sijiu City, a piece of tile can fall down, and it can hit a pile of two mouths.
Shan Mingxiang, who was in a high-ranking position in the third grade in the capital, did not show a look of surprise after hearing Lin Dingqiang's words, but raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked back at the young man he had seen at Xin Wenhua's dinner.
Shan Mingxiang walked up slowly, took out his business card, and asked politely: "Monday is a closed day, if it is convenient, we will talk in detail." β
Lin Dingqiang took the business card with both hands, and when he looked at the units and positions on it, he instantly confirmed his conjecture.
"Okay," Lin Dingqiang said cautiously, "I will contact you in advance." β
Shan Mingxiang nodded slightly, and then said to Guan Yushu: "Don't bother anymore, go first." β
"You're welcome, go slowly. β
Kwan Yu-sook sent Shan Mingxiang out of the lounge, and then turned back.
Lin Dingqiang took Shanmingxiang's business card and looked at it attentively, and he didn't even notice that Guan Yushu came to his side.
"Sit, girl. Guan Yushu greeted warmly: "Young man, don't stand still." β
After the two sat down, Xin Qing asked curiously, "Aunt Guan, I want to ask, what is the red book you are talking about?"
Guan Yushu smiled and said, "You! You've really been abroad for a long time! It seems that you have forgotten everything except this Mandarin!"
As she spoke, Guan Yushu walked over to the cabinet on the side and took out a dozen or so dark red certificates, "Look! This is the red book you want to know!"
Xin Qing picked up the top one and opened it.
On the left is a photograph of an artifact, with the name, grade, and number written below, while on the right side is impressively written: "Ms. Guan Yushu: The Qing Yongzheng blue and white ribbon ear gourd flat bottle you transferred has been collected by our hospital." It is hereby certified as a token of appreciation. β
Xin Qing put the certificate on the table, looked at the height of the remaining red book, and asked, "Aunt Guan, have you donated so many things over the years?"
Guan Yushu laughed, she pointed to the open certificate and said, "I'm not donating." β
Lin Dingqiang was instantly puzzled, he looked at the place where Guan Yushu pointed his finger, and the certificate really said that it was a transfer rather than a donation.
"What's not a donation?"
"In 2004, I auctioned a series of books at the Guardian Autumn Auctions. As she spoke, Guan Yushu flipped through a stack of red books, "At that time, the transaction price was almost close to 6 million." I thought I would get my wish, but Shan Mingxiang contacted Guardian and told me that he would use the state right of first refusal for this collection. β
Guan Yushu found the certificate issued that year, opened it in front of the two, and continued: "He was not the dean back then, and it was the first time I heard this word. The people of Guardian told me that although I was the highest bidder for this set of books, it would be bought by the museum at my bid, and my lungs were going to blow up. β
"Isn't that heart-wrenching?"
"That's what I thought about a decade ago. Guan Yushu paused, and then said: "Later, Shan Mingxiang came to the door and told me that this collection of books can fill academic vacancies and will bring great benefits to the work of relevant departments. β
"So you agreed to this preferential purchase?"
Guan Yushu smiled: "At first, I thought he was. I am a businessman who seeks to maximize profits. But it wasn't until Guan Nushan told me a word that my mind changed. β
Lin Dingqiang sat upright, listening intently to Guan Yushu's description.
Guan Yushu glanced at Lin Dingqiang and said slowly: "He told me that money has to be circulated to be valuable, otherwise it will be a pile of straw paper there." β
Uncle Guan's words are really straightforward. β
Later, some changes were made to the relevant regulations, and this buy-first-buy method was gradually eliminated. As for whether to purchase the final and which cultural relics collection units will purchase, it will depend on the follow-up work arrangements of the relevant units to ensure the rights and interests of the producers. β
Although Guan Yushu's tone was flat, the slightly upward corners of her mouth still showed the pride in her heart at the moment, "Until now, there is still a pre-shooting agreement to sell." Since it is inconvenient for the museum to come forward directly, in order to prevent someone from maliciously increasing the price during the auction process after knowing the scope of the lot, as long as there is a suitable lot, Shan Mingxiang will find me and Guan Nushan. β
"Then you mean that the three snuff bottles just now were also transferred to the museum in this way?" Lin Dingqiang listened for a long time, and finally asked the question.
"That's right, we auctioned these three snuff bottles for 17 million by phone bidding. Guan Yushu said proudly: "That's why Guan Lan said that her father's phone was about to burst." β
Xin Qing held her chin and said smartly, "It's the first time I've heard of this right. However, this back and forth has brought you a favor that is heavier than a mountain. β
"In the Beijing circle, the most important thing is the word favor. Guan Yushu nodded and said approvingly: "We have a word called bureau, this one out and one in, it seems that the cash flow is temporarily frozen, but I would rather suffer a small loss than let my friends suffer." This is the root rooted in the city of forty-nine. β
Lin Dingqiang pondered for a while, and in the face of the experienced Guan Yushu, he wanted to solve the doubts in his heart, "Ms. Guan, I really don't hide it. The eighth snuffbox is in my house. β
Guan Yushu seemed to have known this answer for a long time, and asked straight to the point: "Do you want to ask whether it is a donation or an auction to make it reappear in everyone's sight?"
Lin Dingqiang nodded sincerely, like a studious junior sincerely asking Guan Yushu for experience.
"You're in a different situation. Guan Yushu smiled and said: "From my point of view, Yu Gong, Shan Mingxiang represents the museum, you take the donation, he will thank you on behalf of the museum and receive a real donation certificate." β
Guan Yushu looked at Lin Dingqiang's reaction, and took out another certificate from the red book, "This is the two-eared Fang Zun that I transferred by way of pre-auction bargaining, although Jean Shan Mingxiang almost didn't level the threshold of the higher department for this matter, but to this day, we are still very good friends." β
"Didn't you say anything last time that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water?" Xin Qing asked jokingly, "Why can't you figure it out when you get here?"
Lin Dingqiang suddenly realized that the crux of this matter was not to donate or not to donate at all, but to let the eight snuff bottles be reunited and displayed in front of the world.
"I see. Lin Dingqiang said with relief: "Thank you, Boss Guan." β
Guan Yushu stood up, "It's good to understand! Since you're here, don't sit still! Girl, you go to Guan Lan and pick the best horse for you, and try it." β
"Okay, Aunt Guan. β
The two walked out of the lounge, and Lin Dingqiang's smile was extraordinarily bright.
Xin Qing turned her head to look at Lin Dingqiang's reaction, "Don't you get entangled now, right?" However, I also have a question. β
"What?"
"How much are you going to negotiate with Uncle Shan?"
Lin Dingqiang stopped, "Boss Guan said that the three pieces this time are 17 million, so I will quote 5.7 million?"
Xin Qing calculated in her heart and asked, "This is the last one for you!
"It's good to be content. β
Xin Qing smiled, and before she took two steps, she asked cautiously: "Last question, if you have this 5.7 million, will you resign?"
