The operation of the Westerners made Chen Muwu stunned.

It turned out that he had been there all morning pretending to pay attention to calligraphy and painting, which was completely useless.

Others don't take those calligraphy and paintings seriously at all, just as a pastime after buying vases and bronzes.

Chen Muwu quickly pulled out another scroll from the pile of calligraphy and paintings, for fear that he would be too late to start and would not be able to grab good things, or even things.

The foreigners checked out, and they were all gold and silver, and Chen Muwu had a bunch of bits and pieces in his arms, which looked very shabby at this time.

When it was his turn, he put the five little yellow croakers, along with twenty bills, on the table, and when the eunuchs had finished checking and counting, he turned around and was about to leave.

Among them, the oldest and most sinister old eunuch hurriedly chased out the door: "Sir, sir, please stay." ”

Chen Muwu knew that he was calling himself, and his first reaction was to run away.

But then they thought about it again, it was impossible for them to identify their identity fraud in the short time between settling the account and leaving, and now they stopped him, either because they had something to talk about, or they had seen through his identity early in the morning, but they still chose to complete the transaction with him.

So what else is there to be afraid of?

So Chen Muwu simply stood still, turned around and said with a smile: "This old gentleman, what advice do you have?" ”

"Okay, young man, don't pretend to be with the old body," the old eunuch directly broke Chen Muwu's disguise, "It's okay for you to trick the little guy who hasn't seen the time, but it's still a little bad to deceive the old man." ”

Chen Muwu smiled awkwardly, he knew that the old eunuch in front of him must have been suspicious of the banknotes of the Jiangye Industrial Bank.

A Wa himself, the money he took out was not Wa Yuan, but it was a paper money from the south?

Nowadays, the Wa Yuan is not as worthless as it has been depreciated countless times in later generations, and the gold standard is implemented to stipulate that one Wa Yuan is equal to 750 milligrams of gold, which is basically about the same as the price of the ocean, but it is only slightly lower than one and a half percent.

"Don't worry, I didn't have any malice when I stopped you, I just told you, next time, you don't have to dress up like this anymore, anyway, you have money and want things, and I have things and want money." I don't wonder how you got it, and I don't ask who you are, as long as you keep your mouth shut and follow the rules here, who is the business to do or not? ”

"Then thank you husband." Chen Muwu no longer spoke in a thick voice, but returned to his normal tone.

In fact, the old eunuch's mentality is also very simple, in his cognition, but anyone who can find this kind of place is bent on antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and wants to pick up the leaks.

He really wasn't worried that these people would leak the news and bring the matter of the palace people buying and selling in private to the surface.

After all, if they are cut off as a trading channel, it is not so easy to buy the treasures in the palace.

It can only be said that this old eunuch is still too naïve, and their emperor master has become a loser, which is much more than their petty fighting!

In winter, although the sun rises late, the eastern sky is already brightened.

Chen Muwu, who acted a lonely actor, walked out of the small courtyard, and the sharp-eyed driver immediately recognized this generous customer.

He hurriedly pressed the ignition lever on the left side of the steering wheel to start the car, and drove the car in front of Chen Muwu.

"Sir, are you out?" The driver jumped out of the car and opened the door on the right side with courtesy.

"Let's go to Dongbanqiao, and when I go back, I'll settle the bill for you at the same time."

"Okay, okay, make sure you get to your destination safely."

There was nothing to say all the way, and when the two of them returned to Dongbanqiao in Beicheng in one car, the red sun had already risen, Chen Muwu paid off the car money, and returned to the Ma family in the alley with three scrolls in a precious manner.

Once inside, he stomped around, but couldn't find a place to hide it, and finally rolled the scroll into a jacket and put it in his suitcase.

He tore off the note he had left on the table before leaving, took off his outermost clothes and lay down on the bed, seizing the time to rest for a while.

It wasn't until the little boy of the Ma family came to knock on the door and told Chen Muwu to get up and eat that he pretended to be a big dream, rubbed his eyes and opened the door.

Everything is as usual at the dinner table, nothing is unusual, no one in the Ma family should find out that this young man who is staying in his own house went to Black Dragon Pond last night to make waves.

After eating, Chen Mujun asked Ma Yuzao casually: "Second Brother Ma, do you know anyone who is proficient in appreciating gold and stone antiques, calligraphy and paintings in this Shaojing City?" ”

"What, have you been interested in collecting lately?"

"The lecture has been postponed for the past few days, and I have nothing to do, I heard that the Liulichang area in the capital has always been a gathering place for antiques, calligraphy and paintings, so I wanted to go there."

"Hanchen, the water in this collection has always been very deep, I advise you not to be too aggressive."

"That's why I asked you, second brother, can you introduce a few teachers, let me go and ask for a one-two. I didn't go there to make a fortune, I just wanted to try my luck and buy one or two valuable treasures. ”

Ma Yuzao smiled slightly and said, "It seems that I can't persuade you, Hanchen, if you don't hit the south wall and don't look back." Well, I will write you the address of my fourth brother. Maybe your eldest brother didn't tell you, but my fourth brother, Ma Shuping, is now serving as the director of the archaeological research office of the Shao National Academy, and he happens to be good at this. When you are free, go to him. ”

"Thank you, Second Brother Ma."

Ma Yuzao picked up a pen and wrote a note of address, and then hurriedly left home to go to work at Shao University.

A few days after Cai Yuanpei's resignation and leaving the school, the situation of Shao Da Qunlong without a leader was improved, and Jiang Menglin was finally appointed as the acting principal.

Except for a few radical students, who are still clamoring every day to expel Peng Yunyi, the head of education, and go to the Tianyu Concession to welcome back the old headmaster Cai Yuanpei, most of the students have returned to the classroom.

Chen Muwu also got what he wanted.

Ma Yuzao's fourth brother Ma Heng, now people only say that he has a good fate and has found a rich father-in-law.

Because the old man has money for him to squander, he can learn to ride a horse and have the money to collect antique gold and stones.

Because he can ride horses, and the second brother is the director of Shao University, so he can become an equestrian teacher in Shao University's physical education class.

Because he likes to collect antiques and study gold and stones, after the establishment of the archaeological research laboratory of Shao University, he entered the research institute and became a nominal director.

Anyway, the salaries of the teachers in Dalian can't be paid, so how can they have spare money to support archaeology?

Now in this world, it is estimated that only Chen Muwu knows that Ma Heng is not a son-in-law who only eats, drinks and has fun by spending his father-in-law's money, and does not learn and has no skills.

He was the second director of the future Palace Museum, and presided over the south, west and return of cultural relics during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and made great contributions to keeping precious cultural relics in China.

The reason why Chen Muwu asked Ma Yuzao whether he knew anyone in the antique collecting industry was to get information about his fourth brother Ma Heng.

can be the director of the Palace Museum, is the level of calligraphy and painting appraisal still poor?

Soon after Ma Yuzao went out, Chen Muwu, who went back to the house to get the three scrolls, also followed out.

He called a foreign car and went straight to No. 48 Xiaoyabao Hutong.
