Chapter 28: Jia Lei's Three-Inch Incorruptible Tongue!Dr. Val! (Ask for Recommendation)
"Did the archaeological team I want you to find find it?" asked Jia Lei.
"Yes, the University of Bonn just agreed to cooperate with us, but Dr. Wahl, who was leading the team, didn't want to come! Novan said.
"It's stupid to not be able to do such a trivial thing! You can add money to him. Jia Lei said.
"But Dr. Val was not short of money, he had participated in a private treasure hunt in the deep sea when he was young, and the money he had obtained was worth millions of marks, and his laboratory had been built at his own expense, and all commercial activities in these years had been rejected by Dr. Val except for the other Dr. Val who was interested. Novan said.
"If he can't do it, we'll change someone!" Jia Lei said.
"But if it were someone else, the fee might be higher, and some people would like to take a stake in the museum!" said Novan, who said that only the University of Bonn wanted some memorials and studies of the remains of the Berlin Wall, and did not offer cooperation or shares.
Jia Lei also remembered this incident, Jia Lei, who usually likes to watch archaeological discovery shows, knows that similar excavation is not an easy task, and when digging, you must first be careful not to damage the items, which is not counted!
The most troublesome thing is to put the mess back to its original appearance, which is similar to a jigsaw puzzle, which is similar to a puzzle that ordinary people can't do except for a professional archaeological team.
"I'm going to ask Dr. Val myself today, and with my incorruptible tongue, I'm sure I'll be able to get Dr. Val here. Jia Lei said confidently.
****
Jia Lei confidently walked to Dr. Val's office and knocked politely on the door, and a hoarse voice in the room let him in.
"Good day! My name is Jia Lei, and I'm glad to meet you!" As soon as Jia Lei entered the door, he first gave the old man a 60-degree bow, and it is not strange to have many people!
"Good day, my Oriental guest, I heard Mr. Novan hear about you, and he said that you are from China. Nasty Mr. Novan. Dr. Val said unceremoniously to Novan, but he personally poured Jia Lei a cup of tea and asked Jia Lei to sit down.
"Novan, since Dr. Val doesn't like you, you might as well wait for me in the car. Jia Lei said that he could see that the old man was a little different to himself, and he paid attention to it as soon as his eyes rolled.
"Yes, boss!" Novan said and retreated, and when he left, he specially helped Jia Lei close the door.
"Oh! this annoying creature is finally gone, and I'm driving myself crazy by him. Dr. Vaal let out a long breath.
"I'm sorry, it's our fault! I'm sorry for the trouble!" Jia Lei quickly stood up and bowed to Dr. Val to apologize.
"There's no need for this, you also told the school that this matter was originally my fault, and I didn't follow the school's assignment. Dr. Val said, waving his hand.
"It has nothing to do with you, it's all our fault!" Jia Lei began to take the responsibility on himself, and he saw that this was a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted old man.
"Let's not be polite, you kid is very polite and I like it! I'll tell you the truth, I'm an archaeologist, I'm only interested in all kinds of ancient cultures! I'm not short of money, so I never take on this kind of business, I've made it clear to the school that I'll let Cyril cooperate with your excavations. Dr. Val said.
"Dr. Cyril, I'm afraid this is not appropriate......" Jia Lei said deliberately before stopping.
"Why isn't it appropriate? Cylir is very competent, he has been involved in many abandoned archaeological and restoration work, and you are just trying to excavate and repair the Berlin Wall. Cyril's experience and abilities are enough!" Dr. Vaal asked.
"The excavation of the Berlin Wall is not only a matter of ability and experience, it is a serious and great excavation, an excavation that will go down in history! It is also a consolation and remembrance of the dead, but Mr. Cyril does not have a heart of respect for the dead, he is full of money for the excavation. This would desecrate the souls of the dead and humiliate those who died unjustly under the Berlin Wall. Jia Lei said this, suddenly lowered his head, wiped his eyes with his sleeve, and then Dr. Val heard the cry.
"Blasphemy for money? Cyllil couldn't do that!" Dr. Val said incredulously.
"But he did, and he asked us to give him 10 percent of the museum's entrance fees as his salary, in addition to the memorabilia of the Berlin Wall and the work subsidies for the people who participated in the excavation. You know, this museum was built to commemorate the souls of those who died under the Berlin Wall and this painful history! I'm not here to make a profit......," Jia Lei said, raising his red eyes, tears still unwiped from the corners of his eyes.
This is the tears that Jia Lei forced out after wiping the corners of his eyes with his sleeve!
"Oh my God! He actually wants 10% of the income of a memorial, which is very undeserved! Originally, you don't make money by building this type of memorial, and I'm afraid the ticket money is not enough for the museum's daily maintenance and expenses. Dr. Wahl said this was almost the norm in art galleries and museums in the '90s.
"Yes, our private museums are not subsidized by your government......" Jia Lei said very skillfully, it seemed that he was saying that he would lose money, but in fact he did not say it, and the rest of the words were made up by Dr. Val himself.
"No, I can't let him do that! The East Germans who died under the Berlin Wall are our brothers and sisters, and I'm going to stop him! I'll go to the excavation myself!" Dr. Wahl said excitedly.
"Really, Dr. Val, if you could go and ask for it, if it were you, I'd like to set up a maintenance fund for the Berlin Wall Cemetery with 10% of the ticket proceeds, and we'll have some bloodstained Berlin Wall during this excavation, and I'm going to use them to build a cemetery for the Berlin Wall victims. I will use all the money from this fund to fund the orphanage!" Jia Lei said.
"Oh, my guest of the East, you are such a kind-hearted angel! There are so many people in country D, but they are all busy with independence movements and political games, and no one commemorates the historical building of the Berlin Wall! Only you still think of these innocent people. Dr. Vaal said excitedly.
"Although I am not a native of country D, nor am I a believer, but I understand the suffering of people in country D, after one stop, the huge war reparations make the people of country D unable to even eat their stomachs, and they have to pay reparations and interest for many years. Jia Lei said.
At that time, the life of the entire country D was almost unbearable, and if we did not resist, I was afraid that we would not be able to pay the reparations for the rest of our lives. Dr. Val said.
"After the Second World War, the two camps of the West and the East divided your country and your compatriots into two generations, and created the bloody dividing line of the Berlin Wall, and the East Germans were not only stopped and killed, but also forced to give up all their property and freedom. Jia Lei said that he stood in the perspective of the people of country D in every word, and immediately won the favor of Dr. Val.
"Don't worry, I'm going to gather people to help you dig it up, and we're going to build the best memorial to the Berlin Wall, and we're going to make it clear to everyone what other people have done to the people of D. after the war!" Dr. Wahl said.
"But Dr. Val, your people are also at fault! Those Jews, women and children who died in World War II are innocent, and we must also make amends! I plan to set up a post-war relief fund with another 10 percent of the ticket money, and invest the money in the relief funds for women and children in various countries. Jia Lei said that Dr. Val was even more excited.
"You are truly an angel, sent by God to save the Berlin Wall!

"How the hell did you convince Dr. Val, boss?" asked Pete curiously, knowing that he had tried to persuade the old man, but they had just kicked him out.
"People have weaknesses! Some people are for fame and some are for profit, Dr. Cylir is a man for profit, and Dr. Val is not short of money, so we must move him to persuade him from the general righteousness, we must give the excavation a supreme honor and honor, and we must make everyone feel that we are building a museum for public welfare! In this way, we will not arouse the disgust of the people of country D!" Jia Lei said, you must know that the museum should be built on the land of country D.
"I heard you were crying, and you also donated 20% of the ticket proceeds to various charitable organizations, so we're afraid we're going to lose money, right?" Pete worried.
"Pete, you are so naïve! Do you think that the museum makes money by selling tickets, if it is only by selling tickets, I am afraid that even the museum's daily expenses will be difficult, where will I go to make money? You can rest assured that the real place to make money is elsewhere. Jia Lei said.
"Pete, you remember that you must do more good deeds when you have money, there is a saying in our country called being rich and unkind! I donate this money because I really want to do something for women and children, because I am too young to do anything, but I can contribute!" Jia Lei said with a serious face, looking as if he was really a big philanthropist.

"You are all gringos, how can I tell you the truth! Anyway, now everyone thinks I'm a good person!" Jia Lei thought to himself.
**
Jia Lei wore a mask and a dust suit and followed Novan into the garbage dump in the east of the city, followed by a team of archaeological team members one after another, followed by some local laborers.
"Novan do you think these people are reliable?" Jia Lei asked.
"Boss, don't worry, Dr. Val is a famous archaeologist with many excavations of large ancient buildings, and Dr. Val even went to Egypt to participate in the excavation of the pyramids!" said Novan.
"I'm not talking about Dr. Val, I'm talking about the workers in the back. Can you guarantee that they were all the people who were involved in burying the Berlin Wall that day? You know, the dump is so big that we can't find the Berlin Wall without a specific place. Jia Lei said.
"I hired these workers at a high price according to your request, not only the employees of the landfill, but also the soldiers who carried out the demolition work that day, and even we got the full photos of the Berlin Wall and the burial records from several journalists, we will definitely find the Berlin Wall this time!" Novan said confidently.
