Chapter 747 The Black Queen
Miss Peach is the famous singer Etta James of the Stars and Stripes Nation, because the name of her earliest album was written 'Etta James and Peach', so people called her Miss Peach. Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award winner.
Xiao Peng took it and whistled: "How much did you buy AT LAST?"
Jima Ward replied, "Eighty euros." β
After hearing this, Yali smiled and said, "Didn't you bargain with the store? you can bargain for anything you can buy here, your price is a bit expensive." Ordinary records are one euro a piece. β
Jimma Ward shook her head violently: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive! This album was released in 1960, and it's so good to survive to this day, it's rare, I love the song 'AT LAST'." β
Xiao Peng shook his head: "You little fool, Miss Peach's album was so popular back then, it was not difficult to buy her old records, but your price is obviously expensive." β
Jimma Ward pouted: "I see there's "I'd Rather Go Blind" there, which sells for a hundred euros." β
Xiao Peng's eyes lit up: "Where is it?" I'll buy it." β
βγγγγγγ Everyone was speechless: "Didn't you say that this price is expensive?"
Xiao Peng glanced at it: "There are not many black female singers I like, and Miss Peach is definitely one of them." β
You Mei remembered what Jima said to herself in the car when she got up, and said to Xiao Peng: "Honey, you are suspected of racial discrimination when you say this, by the way, do you Chinese people discriminate against black people?"
Xiao Peng's face was righteous and Ling Ran: "We Chinese people pay attention to the acceptance of all rivers and rivers, and never discriminate against others! What happened to the black people? In the history of our country, there have been black queens! By the way, there are emperors of black blood! When have you ever had these countries? That's why I said that our Huaxia is the best country!"
"Honey, you're not kidding, are you? there are still black queens and emperors in your country?" Alexandra's eyes widened, and so did the other two girls, shocked by Xiao Peng's words.
Xiao Peng nodded and said: "In fact, there have been black people in our Chinese history, and the exchanges between people in ancient times were more frequent than we imagined, and there are many records of black people in history. β
"For example, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" records the black countries such as 'Xiaoyang Kingdom', 'Fire-weary Country', and 'Lao Republic of China', such as 'Lao Republic of China is in its north, and it is black, or it is called a religious people. It is said that in the north of Maomin, his face and hands are black', which shows that the ancient people were not ignorant of the outside world. β
"For example, the Shang Dynasty people are more superstitious, and they have to sacrifice first to do anything, and the sacrifice is the human being, so human bones are often found in the current Yin Shang ruins, and interestingly, the bones of black people are also found, like the national treasure of our China in the Japanese country now, the 'Shang Tiger Cannibal Block', which is a tiger holding a black man. As for where these blacks came from, no one can say clearly. β
Gemma Ward asked, "Honey, you haven't made it clear so far, what does this have to do with the black queen?"
Xiao Peng smiled and lit a cigarette: "Don't worry, here's the thing, there was a dynasty in our country in ancient times, called the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the royal Sima family at that time was wonderful. The only emperor with black blood and the only black empress in Chinese history were born. β
Xiao Peng took a deep puff of cigarette and continued: "Sima Yu, the king of Huiji in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, because he couldn't give birth to a son for a long time, looked for a warlock everywhere to find the reason, and one of the warlocks went to his mansion to look for a woman who could give birth to a son. β
"At that time, a black woman named 'Kunlun' in the house was discovered by the warlock, and the warlock exclaimed, 'This is also the person', so this black woman 'Kunlun' gave birth to two sons and a daughter to Sima Yu, and gave the name 'Li Lingrong', all the way to the position of the queen, and became the only queen in our Chinese history, her son Sima Yao later became Emperor Xiaowu of Jin, and naturally became an emperor with black blood. β
"When Xiangshi was looking for a female dependent, the old servant in Sima Yu's house pointed out that this Li Lingrong was 'Kunshan slave', so he was called 'Kunlun', this Kunlun refers to two mountains in our Chinese history, Kunlun Mountain in ancient books refers to the mountain range near Yangcheng County, Jincheng City, Shanxi today, the legend is that Fuxi is in the Kunlun Hill King of the world, but since the Han Dynasty, Kunlun Mountain refers to the Khotan Mountain in Qinghai, and at that time Khotan Mountain happened to be the only way for the Arabs to trade with China, and the black slaves they brought were called 'Kunlun Nu', also called'Kunshan Nu'. There is also a name called 'Sangha'. β
"However, in the Tang Dynasty, the name "Kunlun Nu" has changed, according to the "Old Tang Dynasty Book - Nanban Biography" record: "From the south of Linyi, all curly hair and black bodies, known as Kunlun", which means that after southern Vietnam, there are all black people here, called Kunlun, at that time, the 'Kunlun slaves' in China were mainly these people, according to history and chronology, it is more likely to refer to the people in the circle of ancient India, and a small number of black slaves brought by the Arabs. However, for a long time, they have been assimilated by our nation. β
Listening to Xiao Peng's words, Yali and the others widened their eyes: "When we arrived in Huaxia, we felt that Huaxia was safe, and Huaxia people were also very friendly, but I didn't expect you to be so friendly since ancient times!"
Xiao Peng gave a thumbs up: "That's a must, we Chinese people have been hospitable since ancient times!"
But when he said this, Xiao Peng was also very sorry, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, black people in China were actually not happy, generally slaves and prostitutes, and the Qing Dynasty was closed to the country, almost no understanding of black people, with the opium-film-war-war country was opened. People just started to see blacks, but then they were γγγγγγ for blacks
Perhaps Kang Youwei's statement as the Kang Da Sage is the most representative: 'However, the body of the black man is fishy and unsmellable, and the shape of the black man is also, with an iron face and silver teeth, a slanted forehead like a pig, a straight look like a cow, a long chest full of hair, dark hands and feet, as stupid as a sheep and a pig, and a fear of hope', and how to deal with the black people? Or use the strategy of the Kang Da Sage: 'If the brown black man has a bad temperament or is sick, the healer will drink the medicine of his heir to prevent him from passing on the seed'γγγγγγ
Of course, these things can't be said to a few girls, you have to pick a good one to say it, right?
Xiao Peng started Taobao again, the so-called Taobao, how can he know what antiques, but he also has his own experience.
He only buys things that he can recognize the material, and he doesn't know which age the silverware is, but he can still tell whether it is pure silver; for example, when he buys antique watches, antique watches at that time, whether they are watches or pocket watches, are mostly made of 18K gold, and whether he can recognize 18K gold is the key; Similarly, he only buys jewelry that he can recognize when he is optimistic about the jewelry that a few girls can recognize. And then play with his life to bargain, whether it is a profit or a loss, it is just a fun, as for what ancient paintings, Xiao Peng can't even read it, and he doesn't understand it at all, right?
A few people had a lot of fun here. What bone china cup wooden doll bought a lot, I don't care about the value, I only care about whether it's fun or not.
Speaking of the vendors here are generally more formal, generally speaking, those imitation silverware products that look like silverware will be placed outside casually, real silverware products will be placed in glass cabinets, what silver wine glasses, coffee pots, cigarette boxes, wine bottles, etc. can be found, silverware is very popular in Europe, but sometimes there will be missing silverware outside, Xiao Peng bought a silver jewelry, but the boss said that this is a tin product. Well, this jewelry box is indeed a little dirty, and it is quite similar to tin products, but Xiao Peng picked up a leak.
I have to say that when you go to Europe, you must go to the flea market to try Taobao, if you accidentally find a treasure, it is a top collectible, and the story of getting rich overnight is not rare here. But Xiao Peng really doesn't care about that, after all, he really doesn't have to worry about money now.
Of course, Xiao Peng also saw the blue and white porcelain produced in the Qianlong Year of the Ming Dynasty, and the asking price was extremely high, and Xiao Peng asked for 100,000 euros for a broken vase! The vendor also swore to God that his grandfather's grandfather had brought it back from China when he went to join the Eight-Nation Alliance.
Seeing Xiao Peng turn around and leave, the merchant desperately stopped Xiao Peng, talked to him about patriotic education, and told Xiao Peng that 'bringing back the Chinese cultural relics lost overseas to the motherland' is what every Chinese person should do, and there was a group of onlookers at the scene who agreed with his statement.
Xiao Peng couldn't bear it anymore, and pointed to the mark on the bottom of the bottle and said to the merchant: "Dude, this Qianlong is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, not the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, if you want to sell Chinese fakes to cheat money, I won't stop you, but you can at least understand a little bit of history." Are you content, this is a fake, if it's true, I'll smack your two big mouths first, and it's reasonable to go to our Huaxia to grab something?"
If I had listened to you, would I have been deceived by people now? Then are you an accomplice to this liar? Remember, no matter where in the world, as long as there is such a flea market to buy antiques, no one should talk nonsense. It's a lot of beating!"
As soon as Xiao Peng's words fell, he heard 'Ouch, you hit me?' from a distance, Xiao Peng was stunned: "I'll go, someone is really beaten?"
The people who were still here just now walked towards the place where the fight was fighting, and Xiao Peng whistled: "Why do Belgians love to join in the fun more than us Chinese?"
Jima glanced at Xiao Peng: "Isn't it because of you that you don't leave and stay here for you to criticize?"
Xiao Peng looked at a few people: "Otherwise, we will also go and join in the fun?"
You Mei said: "What's so good about fighting, it's better to go shopping." β
She is Belgian, and they all say that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, so that people can see their Belgians fighting, and Yumei is also embarrassed. It's too late to drag Xiao Peng and the others away, and they still go up to join in the fun?
Xiao Peng looked at You Mei: "Okay, let's continue shopping, huh?" Xiao Peng did not leave, but saw a red cup behind the vase of this 'Qianlong Year of the Ming Dynasty'.
Xiao Peng picked it up casually: "Hey, how much does this cup cost?"
The stall owner who was scolded by Xiao Peng for pointing his nose at the liar just now looked at the cup: "This? 30,000 euros!"
Xiao Peng's eyes kicked his eyes: "Your uncle, what are you telling me again, your grandfather's grandfather's grandfather went to the Eight-Nation Alliance's gun to leave you with a big mouth, and I really slapped your face! You want 30,000 euros for such a broken cup?"
The stall owner's face stiffened: "Can you bargain when you buy things here, besides, look at the carving of this horn cup, the multi-mold complexity, how good this carving is! This is really my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather brought back from China!"
Xiao Peng gave him the middle finger: "Do you think what I just said is a joke? If it is really you who snatched it, I will really fight with you first, anyway, there are already people fighting in front of me, let's have a fight too?"
This stall owner is a young man, he is not very old at first glance, not as tall as ordinary Europeans and Americans, and his face stiffened after listening to Xiao Peng's words: "Uh, sir, you are joking! How much do you say in this life?"
Xiao Peng picked up the cup and looked at it: "One hundred euros, if you sell it, I will take it!"
When the stall owner heard this, he snatched the cup back from Xiao Peng's hand: "What are you kidding? This horn cup looks like an old thing, at least more than 100 years old, and there is such a fine carving, you see this bas-relief carving process, although it is only carved a few millimeters deep, but you can see how many levels there are? This deep relief or openwork carving is more difficult, and the artistic value is also higher! Coupled with the precipitation of the years, this is the best work of art!"
Xiao Peng looked at the stall owner in surprise after hearing this, and said such an artistic and insightful word from his mouth, which was not quite like what he said. The stall owner looked at Xiao Peng's expression and looked stunned: "My Chinese friend, this is Belgium, and our Belgians have art cells in their blood." β
Xiao Peng waved his hand, interrupting his boasting: "Okay, don't blow it here, just say how much!"
The stall owner thought for a while: "Twenty thousand euros!"
Xiao Peng turned his head directly and was about to leave, but the stall owner hurriedly grabbed him again: "Don't worry, how much do you say!"
Xiao Peng picked up the red 'horn cup' and looked at it for a long time: "Okay, you're right, this thing is really good, so let's take it for a thousand euros!"
The stall owner cried and mourned: "Don't, you have more, you are a Chinese, it's not easy to come here, right? It's rare to see something you like, you miss it and you can't buy it in the future, you see that you have bought so many things, you must also care about the money, if you don't buy it today, think of this cup in the future, isn't it only regret? What are you doing to make money? Isn't it just to make yourself happy? Since you have money, don't miss the things you like." β
Xiao Peng cupped his cheeks and thought for a while: "Okay, even if you said that you moved me, then so be it, two thousand euros, I won't buy it if you want one more point!"
The stall owner's face was happy: "Okay!
Xiao Peng took out four pieces of five hundred euros from his pocket and handed them to him, took the 'horn cup', wiped it carefully a few times, and nodded. However, he did not give the cup to the third girl, but held it in his hand.
The three of them continued to stroll, getting closer and closer to the people who were fighting over there, Xiao Peng was still curious, there happened to be a stone flower bed next to him, he jumped up, looked inside, and whistled: "One dozen two, these two men can't beat one, it's too embarrassing, right? You said that big man, what are you doing there? If you don't help fight, what are you doing lying on the ground with a piano box?"
After listening to Xiao Peng's words, the three girls were all interested, and asked Xiao Peng to pull himself up to the flower bed to see the excitement, but as soon as You Mei went up, she became anxious: "Honey, go and help them!"
Xiao Peng was stunned: "You Mei, what do you mean? It's you who doesn't let me see the excitement, and it's you who asks me to help? What the hell is going on?"
Yumi's voice was about to cry: "My brother!
"Uh, which one is your brother?"
"The one lying on the ground with the kiss box in his arms!"
"Okay! I'll leave it to me!"
PS (There is actually controversy about whether Li Lingrong is black or black and ugly and is nicknamed, but according to historical records, when Sima Yu's servants introduced Li Lingrong to the warlock, they clearly pointed out that she was a 'Kunshan slave'.) So Lao Yang prefers to believe that she is black, after all, the Sima family was surprised by some strange things. οΌ
(It is said that the Sima family is also a thousand-year-old family, according to Sima Qian's "Historical Records" (this record Lao Yang does not believe it, and seriously suspects that Sima Eunuch is to beautify the surname Sima): When the ancient tribal leader Zhuan Xuan ruled the world, the Sima family appeared, at that time it was called Li, and the official was appointed as 'Beizheng', responsible for managing ground personnel, until the Xia and Shang periods, and in the Zhou Dynasty Zhou Xuanwang period, their descendants surnamed Li Cheng Xiufu were in charge of the military, and the official was appointed as 'Sima', so the surname was changed to 'Sima'. When Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony, the general of Zhao in the princes' army was Sima Wei, who first followed Xiang Yu and was named King Yin. Later, he followed Liu Bang and went to today's Jiaozuowen County, Henan. And Sima Wei's more than ten generations of grandsons are Sima Fang, and it was he who recommended the 19-year-old Cao Cao to serve as the lieutenant of northern Luoyang. Then his son Sima Yi also went to assist Cao Cao. οΌ
(Throughout the Cao Cao era, Sima Yi was unknown, but after Cao Cao's death, he put him to his son Cao Pi to do things, and Sima Yi had the opportunity.) In fact, after Cao Cao's death, he didn't have much chance at first, after all, Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, and Cao Zhen were all there at that time, and Sima Yi could only stand aside, and later survived Cao Ren to become the general of Fuyuan, and Cao Pi Cao Xiu Cao Zhen survived, and he really became the number one military leader. Later, he couldn't beat Zhuge Liang, continued to boil, and survived Zhuge Liang to death, and now there are few people who can fight with him. As a result, at this time, he thought that he had finally survived, but he also boiled himself to death, Sima Shi took over the military power, after Sima Shi died, Sima Zhao took over, Cao Wei basically became the world of the Sima family, Sima Zhao wanted to be the emperor, but he died of illness, and finally his son Sima Yan became the emperor, after Sima Yan became the emperor, he didn't do anything, first posthumously named his grandfather and his father as the emperor of the Jin Dynasty. οΌ
(said that this family is wonderful, it has been reflected since this time, Sima Yan killed Cao Chao and became the emperor, and no one dared to mourn when Cao Chao died, the only one to mourn was Sima Fu, that is, Sima Yi's younger brother, Sima Yan's uncle and grandfather.) This guy is Cao Wei's loyal courtier until he dies. οΌ
(Except for bastards such as openly killing the king, the Sima family can't talk about it in the future.) Wang Kaishi admired the wealth, Sima Yan also joined the ranks of showing off his wealth, the harem was messy, not to mention, he gave birth to a fool who 'why not eat minced meat', and Sima Zhao's friend Jia Chong, gave birth to Jia Nanfeng, which directly led to the death of the Sima family in the Eight Kings Rebellion, which led to the catastrophe in the history of the Han people, all in all, the entire Sima family really couldn't find a normal person, and finally came out with a Sima Qian, or a eunuchγγγγγγ οΌ
