Chapter 507: The Treasure in the Closet (Part II)

…… Fan Kuan, also known as Zhongzheng, is a native of Huayuan, a famous master of landscape painting of the Northern School in the Song Dynasty. Almost all the landscape paintings of the Southern Song Dynasty came from Fan Kuan's series. Later generations called Fan Kuan, Li Cheng and Dong Yuan the "Three Song Families", and later the "Four Yuan Families", Tang Yin of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the "Jinling School" of the Qing Dynasty and Huang Binhong of the modern era, were all influenced by Fan Kuan's painting style.

Zhao Mengfu, a great calligrapher and painter of the Yuan Dynasty, praised Fan Kuan's paintings as "masterpieces for ancient and modern times", and Dong Qichang, a great painter of the Ming Dynasty, commented that Fan Kuan was "the first in Song painting". Moreover, in 2004, the American magazine "Life" ranked Fan Kuan as the 59th of the 100 most influential people in the last thousand years.

It is also conceivable that Fan Kuan's great influence in the history of painting, and because the time span is too large, there are not many of his paintings that can be handed down to this day, and there are only four of them that have been clearly traced in the world, namely the "Snow Scene and Cold Forest Map" that originally belonged to the Old Summer Palace and is now collected in the Tianjin Museum, and the "Snow Mountain Xiao Temple", "Xishan Travel Map" and "Linliu Sitting Alone" in the old collection of the Forbidden City, which are now collected in the Taipei-North Forbidden City!

Now in Liu Dong's hand, this painting is 325 centimeters long and 110 centimeters wide, and the ink painting "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" on silk should be regarded as the fifth known painting!

Of course, there must be Fan Kuan's true works in this world, but I don't know where it is!

After admiring these four priceless paintings and calligraphy one by one, I don't know why. Liu Dong always had a feeling of unwillingness! Perhaps it was the relatively large and rich collection of porcelain. The reason why there are so few collections of these paintings, bronzes, miscellaneous and jade!

Shook his head. After driving out the greedy thoughts in his mind, Liu Dong opened the last very ordinary black wooden box! Originally, there was a small lock on the box, but it was directly and violently destroyed by Liu Dong!

"Huh?" Seeing the contents of the box clearly, Liu Dong tightened his brows.

In this box, which is 20 centimeters long, 15 centimeters wide, and 10 centimeters high, it is not the antique that Liu Dong imagined before, but two very ordinary gray hardcover. Looking at the fact that some of the above places have been broken, it is obvious that these two notebooks have been turned over a lot before!

I took out two notebooks and put them aside for the time being, and a thick pile of yellowed paper appeared at the bottom!

Obviously, they're also something that is often turned over by their owners!

However, when he took out these pieces of paper and looked at them, Liu Dong almost laughed, because the words on them were so ugly! In a sentence that his father often taught him when he was a child, it was like a dog crawling!

But after looking at a few photos. Liu Dong's face gradually became solemn.

Soon, Liu Dong put away all the antiques on the desk. Then after moving the excess clutter aside, carefully spread them on the desk according to the number on the paper.

"This is a map!" After Liu Dong finished arranging all the papers, he understood at a glance.

Moreover, judging from the place names marked above, it should be a topographic map of the vicinity of Quancheng, and it is also a topographic map of the southern part of Quancheng, because Liu Dong found familiar regional names such as Wohu Mountain, Huanghua Mountain, and Jiguan Mountain on it! Moreover, there are different symbols such as '×' and '√' on this map, and Liu Dong does not know what these symbols represent! However, the two diaries next to him quickly told him.

The diary's handwriting is also not very attractive, but Liu Dong cares about its contents. And Liu Dong also knew the name of Zhao Liangyou's father: Zhao Rongcheng!

Turning over the worthless trivial content in front of him, when the time came to 1966, Liu Dong's hand that quickly flipped through the diary suddenly stopped, because the content recorded by Zhao Rongcheng here suddenly became agitated, and the whole article was full of sentences defending the great leader Taizu!

Liu Dong's previous guess was not wrong, the more than 1,000 pieces of porcelain he got at the beginning were all 'plagiarized materials'!

Judging from the diary records, although Zhao Rongcheng, who graduated from high school, does not understand the identification of cultural relics, he can vaguely understand the value of these things!

Therefore, almost every time after raiding the house, Zhao Rongcheng will hand over most of the jade, gold and silver, which are valuable at a glance, and porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, which are designated as the four olds, will secretly leave a part.

Of course, it is impossible for him to be the only one who goes to raid the house, so in order to block the mouth of Youyou, Zhao Rongcheng also pursued the principle of equal sharing of interests, and he kept his favorite porcelain, and the calligraphy and painting were given to the deputy captain of the same Red Guard team named Ma Weiguo who was with him at that time, and the remaining bronzes responded to the call of the country and sold scrap copper to support national construction!

Ten years of the Cultural Revolution, Zhao Rongcheng has accumulated a rich collection that is not inferior to any ceramic collector!

As for why there are still calligraphy and paintings, gentleman's porcelain and jade seals in the stuffy closet, Zhao Rongcheng also explained, which was passed on to him by his father!

At the beginning of the second diary, there is a record, "On April 9, 1975, my father was very sick, and although I didn't understand what the doctors called high blood pressure and tuberculosis, it had left my father in a coma for three days!" Originally, I thought that today would be the same as before, and my father would sleep for another day, but to my surprise, my father unexpectedly woke up at noon, and his face was ruddy, full of energy, not like a patient at all, but this situation reminded me of an idiom that my teacher once mentioned when I was in school, 'return to the light'! I don't know if my father is returning to the light, but this is very abnormal, I was going to call a doctor immediately, but I was stopped by my stubborn father!"

"I didn't understand it at the time, but I sat down next to the hospital bed again at my father's request!

"A treasure, a treasure hidden by the Japanese, is actually in Quancheng! Alas......! It's a pity, just when my father told me the specific address of the treasure, I was suddenly interrupted by a doctor who accidentally pushed the door in! And then my father fell down and never got up again!"

"After my father died, I rummaged through all his relics, and finally found my father's hidden notes in the closet! And then I realized that my father was not as simple as I imagined! He was actually a Japanese, and I was actually the ......son of a Japanese I hated!!!" After quickly turning through a large paragraph of Zhao Baocheng's excited and frantic words after understanding his identity, "Although he is my biological father, I will not recognize a Japanese I hate as my father, but I want to find this treasure!" It's a pity that he doesn't have the exact address in his notes?, do you want me to search all over the city......?"

"Whew!" After spending more than an hour reading the parts of the diary that were useful to him, Liu Dong sighed heavily!

In any case, he didn't expect that there was such a big secret hidden in these two thick diaries!

The word 'treasure' is enough to make the other party's adrenaline hormones soar in anyone's ears! Liu Dong is naturally no exception!

Moreover, during World War II, Japan occupied the whole of East Asia, and the greedy, burning, killing, and looting Japanese even collected a large amount of gold, silver, antiques, calligraphy, paintings, and rare treasures from the major occupying countries! However, because of the defeat of the navy, these last plundered treasures could not be safely transported back to China. Coupled with the explosion of two atomic bombs, Japan surrendered too quickly, so a lot of the property looted through the war was left in the belligerents!

However, the greedy Japanese did not want to lose their looted wealth, so they secretly hid it so that they could be retrieved and shipped back to China at a later date!

Therefore, after the end of the war, when the Japanese recovered from the ruins of the war, they began to embark on this mission, and they did succeed a lot! But many of them were discovered and confiscated by the host country! Some of them became mysteries because of the lack of information!

And the treasure mentioned in Zhao Rongcheng's notes came from the Japanese North China Front in World War II!

After Japan was bombed by two atomic bombs in 1945, many Japanese generals realized that defeat was inevitable, so they began secret preparations.

The reason why this place was chosen is that after World War I, Japan replaced Germany's position in Shandong-Dong, and its operations here were deep, second only to the three eastern provinces that penetrated after the First Sino-Japanese War, and there was a secret military base built in the Luzhong Mountains close to Quancheng! In addition, things were placed here, which was closer to the seaport, and Shandong-east was closer to Japan, which was convenient for future transportation!

And the reason why Zhao Rongcheng's father knew this secret was because he was one of the Japanese soldiers who were responsible for burying these valuable materials in the first place! But what he didn't expect was that in order to completely hide this secret, the headquarters actually killed his own people!

However, Zhao Rongcheng's father was very lucky, because his body structure was a little different from others, his heart was not on the left chest like ordinary people, but on the right chest, so after being pierced through the chest by the bullet of the 38 big cover, although he passed out, he did not die!

He escaped by accident for fear of being killed, so he did not dare to return to the army, let alone return to China, so he settled incognito in China, fortunately, after a few years in China, he spoke Chinese very well, plus he also had yellow skin and black eyes, and ordinary people could not see the abnormality.
