Jason's dad Benjamin himself is in the underground antiques business, so he has a relationship with all the antique dealers in London, and even the gangsters in the East @ district are very familiar with Benjamin.

Since Jason stole a few antiques from home a few years ago and sold them one after another, this Benjamin said on the road that no one can accept what his son brought in the future, otherwise he will not give him face, he will not be happy, and everyone will not be happy at that time.

He said all this, of course others have to sell him a little face, who made him this gang of underground black @ Dao, and those museums of the connector, many underground antique dealers are still counting on him to ship.

So since then, Jason has never stolen anything from his home, because even if he could, it would be difficult for him to sell it.

But today is different, now this guy next to him is a stupid bird from Xiangjiang who doesn't know anything, take him to his house and take some good things out, he will definitely be happy to crook his mouth.

Is it possible that when the time comes, will Dad still be able to chase him to Xiangjiang?

At this time, Jason's mind was full of quick cash, making a fortune from his father, and then flying away, he had already stayed enough in this country where it rained all day.

As for Stan's stupid debt, hehe, if you sell it for a lot of money today, then fuck off, when the time comes, Lao Tzu will take the money, fly away, and go abroad to enjoy, is it possible that you can still chase me abroad?

If the money you sell today is not enough to go abroad to be chic, then you can only pay the bill obediently. And then take the rest of the money with you. Continued to mess around in London.

Jin Muchen followed behind Jason. Soon came to the front of an independent mansion, this Jason came to the door, looked into the house, the old man was really not at home, he rummaged through the flower pot at the door, and rummaged through the mat, and sure enough, found a key under the mat.

Open the door and come to the electronic lock of the house. Jason casually pressed the alarm system and turned it off.

"Old man, it's really hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't have left the key, and I wouldn't have changed the password."

Jason muttered to himself, and then pouted, but do you think I'll forgive you like that?

Jason smiled coldly, and when he turned his head again, he saw Jin Muchen standing at the door a little restrained.

"Jason. Here......"

"Haha, don't worry. This is my house, otherwise how do you think I would know the code of the electronic lock here? Let's go to the living room, can you find a place to sit down and have a drink? Whiskey? Coffee? ”

"Is there hot tea? Give me a cup of hot tea! ”

Jin Muchen followed Jason and entered the living room, the area of this living room is quite large, and the decoration is definitely in the old-fashioned British style, with floor carpets on the floor, and bookshelves high to the roof on the walls, full of all kinds of books.

The desk is next to the window, and the wall on the other side is covered with wooden boards, and there are many oil paintings hanging on those wooden boards, this photo.

Those oil paintings are hundreds of years old, all of them are portraits of men, Jason went to make tea for Jin Muchen, and Jin Muchen browsed in this living room.

"How? These paintings are not bad, these are the ancestors of our Patton family, from the time of Wilhelm II until the ...... of World War II."

Jason brought a cup of hot tea, then stood next to Jin Muchencai, pointing to those oil self-portraits and introducing them to Jin Muchen.

Jin Muchen had already guessed that these male portraits should be the ancestors of the Barton family, and at this time, it was even more strange for him to get verified from Jason's mouth.

You must know that these portraits were not painted by everyone back then, at least they had to be nobles to hire painters to paint their own portraits.

In this way, the Barton family should have been from an aristocratic background back then, if that is the case, their family will definitely have a good background after several generations of accumulation, but how did this Jason's father fall to the point of being an antique broker?

"My great-great-great-grandfather, who was a personal companion of King Wilhelm II, was once made an Earl of the Empire. Later generations of family members have traveled across the ocean to do business all over the world......"

As soon as Jin Muchen looked at those portraits, Jason couldn't help but start bragging about his family history to Jin Muchen.

Jin Muchen pouted in his heart when he heard this, why go to various regions of the world to do business, go to all parts of the world to burn, kill and loot, after all, those aristocrats in Britain back then, almost every process of making a fortune was like this.

“…… Later, because of the German bombing of London, our family's original estate was destroyed, and after the end of World War II, Malaya also became independent, and our family's tin mining business there could not be done, and then it began to decline gradually......"

Jason was recounting the rise and fall of their family, and Jin Muchen didn't pay attention to what he was talking about, because his spirit was already attracted by a picture on the opposite wall.

It was an A4 paper-sized black and white photo, in that photo, a foreign devil with two beards, wearing a dragon robe, and a female devil wearing a phoenix cloak and a phoenix crown took a group photo together.

And when Jin Muchen saw this photo, the first thought that flashed through his mind was to be crowned by Mu Monkey.

This is clearly a realistic commentary version of the prince who doesn't look like a prince in a dragon robe!

This photo has begun to yellow, and looking at the layout inside, it must be at least a hundred years old.

"Uh...... This is my great-uncle, General Grant, who was ...... ...... participated in the Yarrow War that year"

Seeing that Jin Muchen looked so fascinated by this photo, this Jason felt embarrassed, and hurriedly explained to Jin Muchen.

However, the origin of this photo is quite embarrassing, so much so that he didn't know how to explain it to Jin Muchen.

After all, in this photo, it is the trophies that his great-uncle and grandfather brought back from China.

And as soon as he said this, Jin Muchen understood that the Yarrow War in Jason's mouth was the Second Opium War, that is, the burning of the Old Summer Palace.

And a flash of lightning suddenly crossed his mind, and he suddenly remembered the diary of a British soldier who had participated in the war and finally participated in the robbery of the Old Summer Palace that he had read before.

Regarding the robbery, there are many handwritten records left by the parties involved in history.

“…… In order to auction off the treasures looted from the Old Summer Palace, the officers arranged for the spoils to be "displayed in the main hall of the Lama Temple," including white and green jade in various shades, antique enamel porcelain vases, bronze objects, and gold and silver Buddha statues; Fur products are also particularly delicate, many of which are very precious, including sable, otter, sable, lambskin, etc.; What is particularly striking is that there are also two or three emperor's dragon robes. General Grant gave his "due" portion to the soldiers, but kept the robes, while the officers presented him with a carved red gold flask, the most delicate of the trophies. The officers also prepared two beautiful large enamel vases for the queen......"

This diary is still preserved in the British Museum and is reproduced in many history textbooks.

In this passage, one person is mentioned, and that is General Grant.

This General Grant is not the commander-in-chief of the British army, but a captain of the British Navy, who landed at Dagukou with the French coalition forces that year, and then followed the army all the way to the capital......

At that time, there was a note on the back of the book about General Grant's surname, and if I remember correctly, it seemed to be called Grant. Barton.

Could it be that guy is one of the ancestors of this Barton family? Looking at the photos on the walls, well, I guess that's right!

Otherwise, where would these foreign devils go to find such exquisite dragon robes and phoenix crowns?

It seems that the general Grant back then, after returning home with the dragon robe of the Chinese emperor, also held a very chic, trendy wedding, on the day of the wedding banquet, the two of them, wearing the dragon robe of the Chinese emperor, and the cloak of the imperial robe.

This time I really didn't find the wrong person, this Barton family, and we Chinese can be said to be 'long-standing'!

Okay, let's settle the new accounts and old accounts together today, as soon as he thought of this, Jin Muchen's eyes flashed with a cold light.

Turning his head again, he happened to see Jason standing aside with a somewhat embarrassed expression, of course Jin Muchen knew what he was embarrassed about, so he smiled slightly.

"Haha, Jason, you don't have to worry, those are more than a hundred years old, aren't they? I think we should look forward. ”

"yes, that's right, we should look forward, haha."

Jason saw that Jin Muchen didn't seem to care about the past of his motherland at all, and his original hanging heart immediately let go.

"By the way, Jason, since this General Grant is the ancestor of your family, then he must have brought back a lot of treasures from China back then, right? Are those things still there? ”

"Hey! What you said is right, Uncle Grant's grandfather did bring back a lot of good things from China, but now that one hundred and fifty or sixty years have passed, those treasures are no longer in our family's hands. I told you before that during World War II, our family's ancestral home was blown up by the Germans, and many treasures were destroyed at that time. Later, after World War II, there was a period of heavy taxation in Britain, and at that time, my grandfather pawned a lot of treasures for the family's livelihood, so he ......" (to be continued......
