Chapter 9 Antiques Exhibition
Look at this posture, Ge Zhuang and I are afraid that the old man will be enthusiastic and do something irrational, this is not the era of the Anti-Japanese War, it is also illegal to hack the Japanese to death at the door of his own house, Ge Zhuang hurriedly went up, snatched the kitchen knife from the old man's hand, and said to the old Japanese devil,
"Come on, didn't you see my old man say to send off guests? A few people are really not particular, how can they bring people to my house directly to talk about business, and I thought it was 1937? The three-light policy is not good! ”
Fujino Eagle had a trademark smile on his face, and said What Boss Ge said was that we really planned to talk about business, but as soon as this old man in your family saw us, high blood pressure immediately came up, and he couldn't blame us.
Ge Zhuang didn't have such a good temper to rap with him, his big face was horizontal, and he said don't delay things, since the old man doesn't agree, our business can't be done, please go back.
This is Chen Yun knocked on the door, walked straight in, and said to the little Japanese old man, "Mr. Fujino, why did you come here?" ”
I raised my chin at Chen Yun, looking surprised, and said You know this old man? Chen Yun is of course, this is a pharmaceutical merchant who came from Osaka, Japan to visit China, and is also very interested in archaeology, and has a rich private collection, and this time he was invited to Chongqing, intending to return some of the national treasures that were lost during the war, and also brought several collections to the exhibition.
What kind of collection do I say, isn't it the antique treasures that were looted from our land by fighting black guns back then? These things are long overdue.
With a humble smile on his face at all times, Fujino Taka shook hands with Chen Yun and said, Professor Chen, I didn't expect to be able to meet you here, but unfortunately the atmosphere is not friendly enough, it's really embarrassing, I'll leave first, and I'll invite you to dinner when I'm free.
Chen Yun nodded busily, saying that Mr. Fujino came to China to participate in the exhibition with his private collections, which is not easy.
Chen Yun was sandwiched in the middle and the mud, Ge Zhuang and I were not going to be mad anymore, Fujino Ying looked back at us when he left, and said with a smile, "Two little brothers, the contemptible people are very fond of the antiques you sold me, as far as I know, there should be three more jars like this, if you have them, you can call me, I am still willing to talk to you, in terms of price, I will definitely satisfy you." ”
Ge Zhuang was impatient, and said that you are so annoying, go quickly! Even if you are a guest invited by the government or government, you have no right to trespass on the house, my old man does not welcome you, take your people away!
Fujino Taka shrugged his shoulders and left with the gentleman's crutch, this old guy had a big shelf, and he actually carried a Taishi chair with him, all carried by several bodyguards, and loaded into the car one by one.
After the sound of the car engine went away, the old man entered the house with a cold face, Ge Zhuang followed in dejectedly, and said Old man, what kind of temper are you experiencing, people from Japan are thousands of miles away to send us money, you should be happy.
The old man was still angry, and said fart, these Japanese are jackals, how many years have passed, and you have forgotten all the lessons accumulated in history? Ge Zhuang said Old man, your old-fashioned concept should also be changed, isn't it popular to change and open now, the great comrade Xiaoping didn't say anything, why are you so angry?
When the old man was satisfied, I led Chen Yun into the study, and the old man was very polite when he saw Chen Yun, saying that this is Professor Chen, I often hear Sima Nan talk about you, such a young professor, you are really promising, unlike our eggs, who have been biao since childhood, and they can't mix up at such an age.
Ge Zhuang was anxious, and said that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and rats give birth to cubs to make holes, I still haven't inherited your genes?
He was so angry that the old man wanted to beat people again, so I hurriedly went up to stop him, and said Uncle, you dissipate your anger, and I will help you clean up the fat man when you turn back.
Ge Zhuang dodged a catastrophe, rubbed his hands and hid behind Chen Yun, Chen Yun bowed politely to the old man, and said Hello old man, I am friends with your Ge Zhuang, and I am also a friend of Sima Nan, I want to ask you about something this time.
The old man sat down, took a sip of tea, and said that if Professor Chen had anything to ask, the old man must know everything. I appreciate your help when I was in the hospital last time.
Chen Yun smiled lightly and said Uncle Ge, I am a junior, don't call me professor, just call me Xiao Chen. The old man said, you came here for those broken crockpots, right?
Chen Yun said, you know?
The old man smiled and said that I am old, but my brain is not confused, let's sit down and talk, don't be so restrained. Chen Yun walked to the old man and sat down, and said thank you, old man, can you tell me the origin of those jars, I found some totem patterns of Gu Yelang on those clay pots, I feel that these things have a certain archaeological value, I don't know if you still have them at home?
The old man pointed at Ge Zhuang and said that there were four in the family, and they all gave this unsuccessful thing, one has been taken away by the Japanese, and there are three left, and the little Japanese still want it, I didn't agree, don't you quarrel? I knew that this bastard would sell his family heirloom to little Japan, so I said I wouldn't give it to him.
Ge Zhuang muttered a big mouth, and said Old man, what you said, isn't this also to save more money, and honor you when I get old, besides, those broken jars were used by my mother to hold pickles and rice bowls, and it is worthless to stay at home, you still plan to be a funeral object, and bury them in a coffin? There is a coffin that big enough to fit ...... Ouch, don't throw the book at me!
The more the dead fat man talked, the more he didn't like it, the old man was so angry that he was confused, and he almost threw the inkstone on his head when he was excited, I quickly stopped it, saying that the fat man, don't say it anymore, the old man will be sick in a while, see what you do!
After a while, Chen Yun continued to ask, "Old man, can you tell me the story here, how did the old lady get these jars in the first place?" ”
Uncle Ge thought about it and said that I don't know the specific experience, when my father went out with the Sichuan army, I was still young, and I fought Japanese devils for a few years, and I heard the news from the front line, saying that he died on the battlefield, and my cousin went to the northeast and paid someone to transport his body back, and I joined the army after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
The old man is 62 years old this year, born in 1938, the complete victory of the Anti-Japanese War was in 1945, when he was less than 8 years old, I can't remember what the situation was at that time, he joined the army when Jiang Guangtou had already retreated to Taiwan, and later went to the battlefield to fight South Korea and Vietnam, and did not directly participate in the struggle with little Japan.
I couldn't find out the origin of those jars from the old man, Chen Yun was not depressed, stood up and said goodbye, the old man asked me and Ge Zhuang to send her, and we accompanied Chen Yun back again, I asked Chen Yun how he planned to investigate next?
She said that Fujino was a shrewd businessman, and that since he was willing to pay so much for these jars, he must know something, and I was going to start with him.
Ge Zhuang said, "Are you going to give him the jar?"
Chen Yun smiled and said How is it possible, in fact, I don't have a good impression of these Japanese, but the situation is compelling, who told us to ask for help? By the way, two days later, the city museum will hold an antique exhibition, there will be a lot of lost overseas private collections to participate in the exhibition, speaking of which, these things were originally the treasures of our country, but for some historical reasons, now in the hands of foreigners, the municipal government, the government tried its best to "borrow" these antiques, but also to see the faces of those foreigners, alas!
Ge Zhuang proposed, saying that it would be better for your buddies to think of a trick for you, get rid of these exhibits, and stay in China forever, anyway, these are the treasures of our country!
Chen Yun said don't mess around, the above attaches great importance to this exhibition, there are military police standing guard everywhere, and you can't even enter the door without a ticket letter, I tell you this, I want to say that if you are interested, I can help you get two tickets.
I said forget it, just watch the TV broadcast at home, who has time to go to see what exhibition. Chen Yun said, don't you want to know who the host is?
I said it was you? Chen Yun blinked and said You guessed right, I thought you would support it.
Ge Zhuang said in a weird manner, come on, big sister, you go to host the exhibition, those foreigners don't look at the collections, just look at you, don't you want to jump out of one or two handsome and rich masters, when the collection is not kept, our country has to post an archaeology professor to marry the ocean, do you say wronged?
