Zhuang poured a glass of wine for Chen Lao, and simply took two sips of the wine bottle, and said: "If Chen Lao is for Wanghai Hospital, there is no need to ⊙ Wanghai handed over to Huaxia firstly, firstly, he does not want to cheapen others, and secondly, only Huaxia can resist." I should be thankful for it. ”

"Why don't you ask me what I can do for you?" Chen Lao slowly sipped his wine and asked.

"Chen Lao didn't leave at this time like Fan Lao, it's enough."

"Look at this." Chen Lao took out a round and jade negative peach jade monkey from his pocket; "How much is it worth in your eyes?"

Zhuang took over the trick and felt extraordinary when he started ● The monkey is only two inches tall, and his body is slender and naughty. The strange thing is that the carving skillfully uses the body movements of the jade monkey to carve out seven large or small hollow holes, in the shape of a spoon, and the formation of the Big Dipper in the star map is darkened.

"The kid doesn't dare to talk nonsense......" Zhuang pondered for a moment before he said; This is an old object, and there are always 300,000. ”

"It's an old thing, indeed;" Chen Lao took the jade monkey and played with it; "But it's only part of the old stuff. Director Su has come to see you a few times, but he didn't dare to disturb you. She said you haven't had lunch yet, so I'll let her leave it there. You're hungry, go to dinner, and listen to the old man tell a story. ”

Zhuang Zao saw a food box under the flower stand, and it was indeed evil. Listening to Chen Lao say this is not hypocrisy, he took the food box and listened to Chen Lao's story while eating.

It turned out that this jade monkey was originally the most inconspicuous part of a large group of jade carved monkeys. **, Chen Lao was sent to the Wuqi Cadre School for labor reform. There are many people in the cadre school, most of whom are capitalist roaders who have been cleaned up in previous movements, and some reactionary academic authorities.

It was there that Chen Lao and Fan Lao met.

The cadre school was built in an abandoned ancestral hall, and Chen Lao and Fan Lao were among the first to come, and sorting out and building houses for the latecomers became a matter of course in their labor reform.

The two were of the same age, and both were cadres in the economic field, and soon became friends.⌒ One day, the two of them dug the foundation together and dug a large vat under an ancient tree not far from the ancestral hall.

There are gold and silver treasures such as silver dollars, as well as some jade, the most conspicuous of which is the one-foot-high group of monkeys offering longevity jade carvings ‰ must be the owner of the ancestral hall in order to avoid the scourge of war, had to put the valuable east ** of the family here.

At that time, such discoveries could not have escaped the eyes and ears of school administrators. They quickly confiscated and sealed the vats, saying that they were going to hand them over to the relevant authorities.

The monkey jade carving is wrapped in a piece of red silk.

Half a year passed, and one day, Fan Lao received the task of cleaning the toilet and found a fragment of red silk at the bottom of the pit. Fan Lao is from Jiangnan and has some research on silk, especially Suzhou embroidery. In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, silk and Suzhou embroidery were one of China's main export products.

It was from the pattern on this fragment that Fan Lao recognized that this piece of red silk was the one that wrapped the monkeys to offer longevity jade carvings.

Fan Lao didn't dare to make a noise, and only complained to Chen Lao when no one was around, saying that the gold, silver and jewelry they found were all greedy for ink.

Chen Lao hurriedly asked the reason, and Fan Lao told him what he had discovered.

The next day, the two went to clean the pit together, and found two broken jade carvings in a deeper place; It was the two monkeys in the group of monkeys offering longevity jade carvings. For some unknown reason, the jade carving was shattered, and two of them were thrown into the toilet.

The two sighed at the greed of those people, and lamented that those people did not know the goods. Because both of them happened to be monkeys, they cleaned up the two broken jade monkeys and collected one each.

After a few years, the two were liberated from the cadre school one after another, Chen Lao returned to Beijing, Fan Lao returned to Shanghai, and the two jade monkeys became souvenirs of their time.

"Jade is the most delicate, if you don't cut it, you can't make it, and if you don't raise it, you will lose its charm." Chen Lao took out another object and handed it to Zhuang; "How much does this only cost to you?"

It's also a monkey with a gold ingot in his hand. It's just that the jade color is gray and dark, and the broken ones can still be distinguished, whether it is the material or the charm, the two jade monkeys can't be compared.

"One or twenty thousand, no more than fifty thousand. If you nourish it for a few years, please think about it with senior engineers, and it will definitely appreciate. Zhuang secretly called it a pity. The two jade monkeys obviously came from a piece of jade material, and they fell into the hands of different people, with different fates, and their values were very different.

"Mr. Li guess again, these two monkeys, those are only my collection, and that one only belongs to Fan Lao?"

"This topic...... It's interesting. "Zhuang picked up the two jade monkeys, looked at them for a moment, thought for a while, and pushed the broken yuan treasure monkey in front of Chen Lao;" This should only be your old hiding. ”

"Why not that one?" Old Chen's eyes were filled with relief, and he asked slyly.

"Because of Huaxia." Zhuang said with confidence.

"Hahahaha, I guessed it." Chen Lao laughed loudly, childlike pride.

After Chen Lao returned to Beijing, although he also cherished this jade monkey, he only collected it with his heart, did not look for a senior engineer to repair it, and did not take it with him to play. He also had another thought in mind, to find all the other fragments and restore the work to its original appearance.

There are only a few people in the cadre school who can access those treasures, and with the change of the political environment, those people have gradually lost power. Chen Lao looked for an opportunity to entrust the relevant departments to start an investigation, and finally clarified the matter of that year.

The 57 cadre school is not a good place to go, and those who come here to do management are not very well mixed with the unit, and their abilities and backgrounds are average, but their history is innocent. There were three school stewards, and when they saw such a large number of treasures, they immediately became greedy. As soon as they discussed it, they divided the vat of treasure privately.

Silver dollars and gold and silver ingots are well divided, you and I will be a piece of him, you will be an ingot, I will be an ingot, and it will be over soon.

Only this largest and most valuable jade carving is not easy to do. Everyone wants it, but no one wants it. In the end, a large piece of jade carving was sawed open by them and divided into nine pieces. These two were not intentionally abandoned, but the one who got him put them in his pocket, and when he went to the toilet, he accidentally slipped out and fell into the manure tank.

Fan Lao finally recovered the other seven pieces, and the last one was dug up at the original site of the thatched toilet of the Wuqi Cadre School. It turned out that it was not two monkeys that fell into it at that time, but three monkeys.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of a meeting, Chen Lao told Fan Lao the news, and Fan Lao was able to take out the peach jade monkey and restore the monkey longevity jade carving.

But Fan Lao said that it was impossible.

After returning to Shanghai, Fan Lao specially found an old jade worker and asked him to repair the broken peach jade monkey carefully. The old jade worker also lived up to Fan Lao's entrustment, and spent three months to solve the jade sand and ponder it with a little bit of heart, and it was rare to remove the impurities in the jade, leaving seven holes that were secretly combined with the Big Dipper.

Chen Lao held the peach and jade monkey again, and said with a little sadness: "It's been forty years. This negative peach jade monkey Fan Lao has been playing with it for forty years, and it has become a valuable gadget. However, it's just a gadget, and it can't be made into a device. Today, Fan Lao left it before leaving, which is very intriguing. He has a heart, but he didn't succeed in the end. ”

"Fan Lao cherishes materials, and it was not wrong to do so at that time."

"I cherished this material and ruined a big thing. At the time, I told him that he could recover all the pieces. But he only laughed at me. It's no wonder that we had just been liberated from the barn, and no one knew what the future would hold. Fan Lao is also a caring person, after all, the small family is angry, and the pattern is limited. When we were about to retire, I invited him to jointly establish the Huaxia Fund and leave something for future generations. He didn't say yes, saying I was too idealistic. Ten years later, when Huaxia began to take shape, he stuffed Fan Xilin into it. That time I didn't agree, Huaxia is a place to do things, not a place to gild. I know that Fan Xilin, in the local area, he has not even been the head of a county magistrate, and he can't endure hardships when he is young. If he is allowed to enter Huaxia, I am afraid it will break the hearts of the children who started a business with me. There was a gap between us, and there was no more contact with us. In a flash, another decade has passed. Last year, he visited Beijing and brought me, a dying man, to Shanghai, which saved my life. I have been cold to you during this time, not because I can't trust you, but because I can't trust him. ”

"What Old Chen means, it's so small that I understand." Zhuang guessed what Chen Lao meant.

Chen Lao talked about the grievances and grievances between the two old men for a long time, and the purpose was to persuade himself to join Huaxia.

In that way, Fan Xilin didn't dare to make any small moves against him, and the "Divine Doctor Li Xiang" would be stable in Shanghai.

"What do you think?" Old Chen asked hopefully.

"Chen Lao is wrong to love, and the kid is not a good person after all." Zhuang refused again. is destined to belong to the Jianghu Dao. Chen Lao didn't know that his troubles didn't come only from Fan Xilin and the conservative forces in Shanghai.

"Tiezhu said you were proud, sure enough. Is Mr. Li afraid of affecting Huaxia? If that's the reason, don't worry. I'm so old, I have my own measure≡ I haven't paid attention to those guys who are high-sounding on the surface and hated by people who turn their heads. Old Chen didn't care about Zhuang's refusal and continued; Fan Gongzi wants to master Fuhua Shipbuilding for a day or two, you are his biggest stumbling block and obstacle. Dr. Xiuyi? What qualifications does he have to refer to Fuhua Shipbuilding? He was just Fan Gongzi's white gloves. Under his pretense of being famous, Fan Gongzi set up an investment company in Hong Kong and had just acquired a marine power company with a bit of history in Eastern Europe. This is his capital. Dock No. 3 is a shipbuilding platform designed according to the standards of building aircraft carriers, and with it, Fuhua Shipbuilding is an unsinkable aircraft carrier only for this business. ”

"Ah......" Zhuang was so shocked that his mouth grown; Why Fuhua? ”

"It seems that Ye'er is still very principled. It's confidential, and you can't blame her. ”

"How dare you be so small?" Zhuang didn't understand.

The military is an investor in the No. 3 dockyard of Fuhua Shipbuilding, and he thought that it would only build some other conventional ships or provide maintenance services for the military; I didn't expect that it would be possible to make an aircraft carrier design. Not to mention manufacturing, any ship navigation needs regular maintenance, and as long as Fuhua Shipbuilding can undertake the task of aircraft carrier maintenance and repair, it is a great business.

However, why did such a business fall to Fuhua Shipbuilding?

Also, why did Chen Lao say this to him. Just to help him, these things are useless. At least on the surface, he has little to do with Fuhua Shipbuilding.

"At the beginning, no one expected that Fuhua Shipbuilding would be able to get to this day, and what they didn't expect was that Fuhua Shipbuilding completely acquired Orton Power. The Fuhua Manufacturing Research Institute you set up has moved over the technology accumulation of Jingchi Shipyard for more than 100 years. is the most valuable. Another main reason is that in order to get these, Fuhua Shipbuilding does not pay much. The controlling party is a Chinese investor mainly from Xuyang Group. This is all your credit, the credit of blessing future generations, and the great credit that no one can erase. ”

Howard Manufacturing Research Institute? Chen Lao didn't say anything, Zhuang almost forgot about it.

The original intention of the establishment of the Fuhua Manufacturing Research Institute was to preserve the accumulation of the Iike Shipping Research Institute, which was about to dissipate naturally, including Chen Yiyi and Matsui Heishi, who did not regard it too important.
