"Michael, is it so exaggerated?" Xiao Peng said with emotion as he looked at the seaplane parked at the dock.

Bloomberg smiled: "After all, it takes a lot of equipment to test oil paintings, and you refuse to take the paintings to me, so I can only bring the tools." ”

"But your seaplane is too exaggerated, isn't it?" Xiao Peng sighed: "Compared to you, how do I feel like a poor ghost?"

Bloomberg smiled: "First of all, compared to me, you are indeed poor, and secondly, this plane is rented by me, and you can also rent it with your Amex Black Gold Card reasonably." ”

Xiao Peng was speechless: "Hey, Michael, is it really okay to hit me like this? Be careful that I drive you away." ”

Bloomberg laughed, "Okay, I'm going to have the tools come down." ”

"I'm going to take a look at this big guy later. Xiao Peng looked at the seaplane in front of him.

Bloomberg said: "Don't think about it, one of the conditions for leasing this plane is to prohibit Chinese people from boarding the plane to prevent secrets from leaking." You are an island and there is no airport, so you can only rent a seaplane and pick and choose, which is the most suitable. ”

Listening to Bloomberg's words, Xiao Peng directly burst into foul language: "These Japanese devils, if you provoke me, I have to get such a fight!"

"Okay Xiao, don't be childish, I'll let them unload their things on the dock, you find some people to help me move it, it snows so much, you must be careful." Bloomberg said.

"Okay, I know, who is so rare that they are a broken plane! Mengzi, you find a few people to move in, pay attention to safety!" Although he said this, Xiao Peng's eyes were staring at the seaplane in front of him, and his eyes didn't roll.

This is the US-2 seaplane of the island country! This is the only export weapon that can be called the name of China in the world market! Even the Stars and Stripes cannot make it.

Of course, the reason why the United States cannot build it is that a few decades ago, the United States abandoned the development of military-grade large seaplanes.

For a long time, the US-2 seaplane was the largest modern seaplane in the world, until the development of Huaxia's new seaplane, the Jiaolong 600, it was relegated to second place.

Before the birth of Jiaolong 600, the US-2 was called a scenery, because it did not depend on the airport, suitable for maritime patrol and search and rescue missions, and there were no competitors, so the price was called a mess, selling more than 100 million US dollars is also it, and selling tens of millions of US dollars is also it. It's a pity that since the birth of Jiaolong 600, its good days have come to an end. However, this still could not stop the technological blockade of China by the Japanese people!

And it is the notorious 'Paris Coordinating Committee' that has created this situation.

One month after the founding of the new China, at the suggestion of the Stars and Stripes, 17 countries led by the Stars and Stripes, the United Kingdom, and France set up the 'Paris Coordinating Committee', the purpose of which was to restrict the export of strategic materials and high technology from member countries to all social-socialist countries, and tens of thousands of products in three categories, including military weapons and equipment, cutting-edge technology products, and rare materials, were included in the embargoed list!

In 1952, the 'China Committee' was set up to implement the so-called 'trade control over China' to China and to prohibit the export of all strategic materials, including arms, steel, vehicles, and ships, to China! The entire ban on orders adds up to more than 500 items in the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries!

However, even under such a severe blockade, Huaxia did not compromise, but immersed itself in hard work, and not only made remarkable achievements in the defense industry, but also made one breakthrough after another in science and technology! The Stars and Stripes, the initiators of the 'Paris Coordinating Committee,' were helpless.

To this day, China has long become the world's largest industrial country, capable of manufacturing almost all industrial products in the world, from aircraft carrier rockets to pencil slippers, but despite this, the West has not given up its high-tech blockade of China. Although the truth of the matter is: in some scientific research projects, Huaxia has come to the forefront of the world!

Of course, this is really thanks to the 17 countries that once guarded against China, and it was they who forced Huaxia to carry out independent research and development. This also confirms what the great man once said: "Blockade! Blockade for decades, we have everything!"

And what's ridiculous is that even so, like the Wa Kingdom, they still have to insist on a technological blockade of Huaxia! Don't they know that Huaxia's technology is more advanced? If Xiao Peng is provoked, there will really be a tornado to blow it down for you! I can always fish it out of the sea and return to China, right?

Well, that seems like a pretty good idea, and it's worth considering.

Bloomberg didn't know what Xiao Peng was thinking, but instructed people to move the instruments one by one to Xiao Peng's room, and two old men with white hair were nervously debugging the machines.

"This is Miller, this is Tommy, these two are the chief oil painting appraisers of the United States Art Museum. Bloomberg said.

"Hello. It makes me nervous to see you prepare so many instruments. Xiao Peng greeted the two.

"Mr. Xiao, believe me, I'm more nervous than you! If this painting is genuine, it will cause a sensation in the world!" Miller said to Xiao Peng, who was obviously more talkative than Tomby. "Mr. Xiao, we can't wait to get to work. ”

"Well, I won't disturb your work. You are at your own convenience. Xiao Peng said.

The two old men took the instrument and began to test it nervously.

"What is this for?" Xiao Peng asked, pointing to the instruments that the two old men had in their hands.

Miller explains: "It's called the 'Somed' scanner, and it's designed to detect pigment magnetic images. ”

Tommy, who was operating the computer on the side, said: "Cesium-137 and strontium-90 were not detected!"

Listening to Tommy's words, Miller clenched his fists: "Yay!"

Xiao Peng was puzzled: "Mr. Miller, what does this mean?"

Miller said: "The explosion of nuclear weapons in the forties and fifties of the last century once released two special isotopes, that is, cesium-137 and strontium-90, which have penetrated the entire soil layer and flora and fauna of the earth, and have also remained in all oil paintings created after the war, because before the nuclear explosion, these two isotopes have never appeared in nature, so if these two isotopes are found in oil paints, there is only one explanation, that is, the painting is a fake imitated after 1945." ”

"What's next?" Xiao Peng asked.

Miller replied, "Next, use carbon 14 dating to date the painting." ”

"Carbon 14 dating, what's that?" Xiao Peng asked.

Miller was visibly patient, explaining: "Carbon 14 dating is a method of measuring the age of objects invented by Willard Libby, a professor at the University of Chicago in the Stars and Stripes, for which Willard-Libby won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. ”

"So powerful?" Xiao Peng asked. "I know carbon, but what the hell is this carbon fourteen?"

Miller nodded: "There are three isotopes of the carbon element, which are the stable isotopes carbon twelve and carbon thirteen, and the radioactive isotope carbon fourteen, since the decay of carbon fourteen takes thousands of years, one can calculate the approximate age of the object according to the degree of decay of carbon fourteen. The state-of-the-art carbon 14 testing technology can achieve an error within 10 years. Our machines are not that advanced, but they can be more or less able to achieve an error of 20 years. ”

After answering Xiao Peng's question, Miller took a magnifying glass and took a closer look: "I swear to God, this is absolutely Van Gogh's real work! Look at the use of this color! This color is so strong that it destroys the space and image! Look at this painting, the accumulation of large color blocks, the use of contrasting colors that challenge common sense, and the emotional brushstrokes are all Van Gogh's style, which is definitely the mature work of Van Gogh in the later part of his life! Perfect! Too perfect! I don't believe anyone would have done this with a fake!"

Xiao Peng scratched his head, not knowing how to answer this sentence, he secretly poked Bloomberg: "Hey, Michael, can you understand?"

Bloomberg asked, "Why?

Xiao Peng said embarrassedly: "I can understand every word separately, but I really can't understand it when it is connected." ”

Bloomberg covered his face: "God, what the hell do you think, to put such a fine art in the hands of this person who doesn't understand art?"

Xiao Peng said seriously: "It's not that I don't understand art, I just don't understand Western art." ”

Bloomberg sighed and said, "Miller means that as long as this painting passes the test of carbon 14, it must be genuine!"

Xiao Peng whistled: "Wow, I like this result." God still cares for me, doesn't he?"

"It takes about twenty hours for an accurate carbon 14 test, so let's wait for the results," Bloomberg said. By the way, I didn't attend your birthday party, so I'm going to make up for you with a birthday present. ”

"Michael, what are you doing so politely. It's my greatest pleasure to have you here. Xiao Peng said.

Blombug smiled: "Xiao, you are really a strange person, you usually speak so politely, but your temper is so hot, these are simply two extremes." ”

Xiao Peng smiled: "I'm not hot with friends, but my consistent style is that you respect me, I respect you, treat me well, treat me better, treat me badly, okay, I will make them regret treating me badly." ”

"You guy. Bloomberg smiled and patted Xiao Peng's shoulder, and the entourage made a gesture, and an entourage walked over holding a large box, which alone looked quite old.

Bloomberg handed the box to Xiao Peng: "Don't you like Chinese cultural relics?

Xiao Peng was not polite, and opened the box directly, Xiao Peng looked at the contents of the box carefully, and was also stunned:

"Uh? This is 。。。。。。 King Wu Cheng?"
