During this time, Zhang Nan tried to contact Zhang Li several times, but only once: she was planning to go to the south to shoot that somewhat bizarre film that would soon be forgotten. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Regarding her boyfriend's behavior of wandering around the world, Zhang Li obviously showed her yearning: Little girl, this is quite normal.

However, her attitude towards work is still quite rigorous, and she also has her own pursuits, and she does not want Zhang Nan to take her out like those actresses who are crazy about going abroad today.

However, Zhang Nan still promised her on the phone: If you want to go out to see something, just call yourself.

I'm also busy, and I don't have time to accompany her all day and night, and I may not even be able to go to the crew to visit the class as I said before.

Zhang Li can also understand this: her boyfriend is a person who does big things, how can she not be busy.

......

The three of them made a decision in the hotel and contacted the hotel front desk to book a flight ticket to West Berlin and, if possible, a flight from West Berlin to Moscow.

The staff at the Four Seasons replied an hour later: the flight from West Berlin to Moscow was on September 8, the day after tomorrow.

If you miss the flight, you'll have to wait another week – there is only one round-trip flight a week between West Berlin and Moscow, and the plane is an Airbus A320 from Lufthansa.

As for going to West Berlin, the hotel recommends taking the train, which can be reached in more than 2 hours, which is more comfortable than flying.

Hamburg is only 230 km from West Berlin, so there's no need to fly.

Following the hotel's advice, Zhang Nan booked three first-class train tickets on September 7 and a flight to Moscow on September 8.

Stay another day in Hamburg and go out tomorrow. Because half a day to see the Berlin Wall is enough: the train arrives in West Berlin at noon, and there is no need to get there a day in advance.

After booking tickets, the three of them went to dinner, and they also asked where the old beer hall was the best.

These days I don't have time to taste the world-famous German beer, so I can't miss it tonight.

When he heard that he was taking the train the day after tomorrow, Xiang Weirong asked curiously: "Isn't that going through East Germany?"

"Well, there are nearly 200 kilometers of road in East Germany, but the train goes almost non-stop all the way to West Berlin, and we can see the scenery at most. ”

Strange way of passing.

West Berlin is a strange place to be, as is its connection to the Western world.

And even stranger is its political status!

West Berlin was established in Berlin in 1945 after the end of World War II: this area was largely integrated with the Federal Republic of Germany during this period, but it was not legally part of West Germany!

West Berlin covers an area of 480 square kilometres, accounting for 54% of the entire Berlin, and currently has a population of less than 2 million, which is 62% of the entire population.

West Berlin is a special political unit that is not independent, and it is located 180 kilometers away from the Federal Republic of Germany. It is connected to West Germany by three airlines, three railways, three roads and two waterways.

Although West Berlin was integrated with the Federal Republic of Germany in terms of judicial, economic, financial, monetary and social systems, and West Germany could represent its interests in international organizations and international conferences, West Berlin was not an integral part of West Germany.

Although it also had a city government, it was still under military occupation by the three Western powers, with the United States, Great Britain and France being the highest authorities in West Berlin. With the addition of the Soviet Union, military vehicles from these four countries could still patrol the entire city of Berlin.

Today's Berlin is a bizarre existence, and as a resident there, whether it is east or west, it is estimated that things do not go well.

......

Early the next morning, Zhang Nan and the three of them left the hotel and went out of the house.

The hotel staff told them that there was a nice thrift flea market just 300 meters away from the Four Seasons Hotel, and there were several thrift and antique shops on the side.

As long as the weather is good, there are more or less stalls over there every day, and you can go around two corners.

There were a few rains yesterday, but today it was a good day, with temperatures ranging from 10 to 20 degrees Celsius throughout the day.

When I arrived at the place, it was a small square, the ground was still paved with stones, and the seven- and eight-story houses around it seemed to be hundreds of years old, and I don't know how they survived the bombing of World War II.

The stuff here is pretty much the same as any other souk in Europe, it's basically second-hand stuff, and there's a lot of stuff here.

There are a lot of valuable things in silverware, but Zhang Nan and the three of them have no appetite: they have bought two containers in Britain and France, and these European silverware have hundreds of kilograms, and they have not been used up for several lifetimes.

There are also a lot of old-fashioned cameras, but none of the three of them have a hobby of collecting them, and they have one that they can use, and they don't even buy a Zeiss camera - it's enough.

Wandering around, suddenly Xiang Weirong pointed to a stall and said, "This person is not in a normal brain, right?

Zhang Nan and Guan Xingquan followed his gesture and looked over, and couldn't help laughing!

There are a lot of things in a young man's stall, but the most conspicuous thing is a golden gadget - a tablet more than 30 centimeters high!

The tablet is commonly known as "Muzi" in Jiangnan, and some people simply call the tablet "Jiatang Bodhisattva".

According to the traditional customs of Chinese folklore, after the death of a person, his family must make a tablet for him, as a place for the soul of the deceased to rest after leaving the body.

There is no rule on the size and shape of the tablet, it is generally made of wooden boards, rectangular in shape, and has a base under it, which is convenient to stand on the table.

Unless the antique collectors in China are not in their right minds, they have absolutely no habit of collecting tablets, not even buying and selling this - only raw melon eggs who have just entered the industry and do not understand the rules will buy this thing, and then be laughed at by the old birds.

Zhang Nan received a call from an excavator master in 2014, saying that it was the demolition of old houses in the countryside, and there was an old house there with a lot of "wood" that no one wanted.

caused Zhang Nan to almost smash his mobile phone!

Invite a lot of people to come back with their ancestors?

You're funny!

Fortunately, Zhang Nan was very familiar with the excavator master, knowing that the person really didn't understand the rules here, and calmly explained to the other party, and the person even said that it was okay and didn't move home!

It's easy to please God, but it's hard to send God, as long as that thing is not your own ancestor, you must not move back to your own home!

Xiang Weirong and Guan Xingquan also knew this rule, so one felt that the stall owner was crazy about money, while the other was a rare laugh.

However, Zhang Nan only laughed a few times, suddenly stopped, and walked over.

English told the stall owner that he wanted to see this thing, and the man understood, and motioned to look at it casually.

Take it, it's heavy!

Xiang Weirong and the two also walked over, and they didn't smile when they looked closer, because they would see clearly that this golden tablet was not simple, and the material should be copper gilt.

The entire tablet is about thirty-two and three centimeters high, very wide, and nine dragons with clear scales and claws surround a special string of words in the center of the tablet.

Guan Xingquan leaned over to take a look and said, "It's Manchu, the same as those in the Forbidden City." ”

He also visited the Forbidden City.

"It's Manchu 'Emperor Gaozongchun', this is Emperor Qianlong's nickname and temple number, this is his tablet. Zhang Nan affirmed.

"This tablet is extremely delicate and the craftsmanship is also superb, it should be that the things in the court cannot be wrong. And there are many cultural relics in history that will be imitated, but copying the royal tablet is a trespass, and it is a big crime!

Moreover, the imperial tablet can only be enshrined in 4 former royal locations: the Forbidden City, Rehe, the Old Summer Palace and Shengjing, and this tablet is likely to have been sold during the burning of the Old Summer Palace, or it may have been stolen and sold in the early years of the Republic of China. ”

said and thought about it, "I remember that it seems that the Qianlong tablet in the Taimiao was stolen and sold, and it was sold to the Germans by a steward eunuch." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the thing in his hand carefully, and said to Guan Xingquan: "Brother Guan, how much does this thing cost?"

"Really bought?" asked Xiang Weirong.

This thing is panicked, the old rules of the people of Yan County are deeply rooted, and even Xiang Weirong feels a little awkward.

"Buy it, but don't take it back. ”

In the end, 3,000 DM was sold.

I just wrapped it in newspaper and walked away, and I didn't go shopping, this thing was hot in my hand.

"Anan, send it back?"

Zhang Nan shook his head, "This thing is not suitable for the director of the agricultural curator, and it will definitely be sent to the capital in his hands in the end." ”

After thinking about it, "Just send it to the Consulate General, I remember that there is a Chinese Consulate General in Hamburg, so I will leave it to them to deal with." ”

Since it was decided, the three of them did not delay and took a taxi to set off.

As soon as he arrived at the Chinese Consulate General in Hamburg, Xiang Weirong looked at the five-star red flag flying high and said, "Anan, it's better that you and I still don't go in, so how about letting Xingquan go to you?"

"Well, that's fine, I don't want this credit for recovering the tablet of Lord Qianlong, it's awkward!" said and stuffed the tablet wrapped in newspaper into Guan Xingquan's hand, "Brother Guan, if you want to register, don't say more, just report the number of the old man of the Jiang family." ”

Guan Xingquan smiled bitterly, "This thing is awkward, so let's do it, let's not take this credit." ”

Everyone has their own taboos, bought a tablet and went back to promote it everywhere?

Forget it, Zhang Nan and the three of them are not good at this, and everyone who doesn't want to do anything about coming to Germany knows it.

Send it home and hide it first, and then donate it to the country?

This is the tablet of the "perfect old man", Zhang Nan and the three of them thought that they couldn't live in this great god in the temple at home, so it was better to send it out immediately.

Zhang Nan and his brother-in-law were waiting in a nearby café, and Guan Xingquan walked into the Huaxia Consulate alone.

In less than 15 minutes, Zhang Nan's freshly ground coffee was served for a while, and Guan Xingquan came back.

"So fast?" Zhang Nan asked.

Guan Xingquan also pulled a chair and sat down at the small table, "As soon as I entered, I showed my passport, and said to the person on duty that this is the tablet of Lord Qianlong, I bought it back, and I turned around to leave."

As a result, several people pulled me and didn't let me go, and said that they would register, and if they were important cultural relics, they would be commended. I said that I wanted to meet the leader for a special reason. I saw the consul 3 minutes later, and I reported the number of the old man of the Jiang family, and said that there was a special mission, and then I flashed smoothly. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"Well, it's as simple as that, I showed my passport, and the other party didn't even see my name. ”

"You cow!" these were Zhang Nan's words, and Xiang Weirong said: "It's a good job." (To be continued.) )
