"Isn't it just a broken map! What's the big deal! ”

Chen Youlong still had a condescending posture, and said with disdain.

"Xiao Chen! You can't say that, do you know the real meaning of this southern Xinjiang expedition? ”

Professor Jiang, who was in the position of the guest of honor, got up and walked to the map and told the special meaning of the map.

"Do you know whose work this map is? Ji Gao is Zuo Zongtang, the minister of the Tongzhi era and one of the four famous ministers of the late Qing Dynasty! ”

"At that time, many people were not optimistic about the border area, thinking that the land there was desolate, the people were rare, and the people were fierce, and even the Empress Dowager Cixi and the Tongzhi Emperor felt that there was no hope of recovery."

"The seventy-year-old Zuo Zongtang carried the coffin out of the crowd and went out on the expedition, and found a craftsman overnight to depict eighteen pairs of "Southern Xinjiang Expedition Map" and swore not to return to the border area.

"Its value is not measured by money, it is a great testimony of the unity of the clan, this is a treasure that can not be found! Last year, an auction house in England also appeared in a pair of "Southern Xinjiang Expedition Map", which was auctioned by a merchant at a high price of 200,000 US dollars! ”

"Although the "Southern Xinjiang Expedition Map" in front of us is slightly defective in appearance, the overall preservation is quite complete, and the dirt on the surface can also be removed with the help of high-tech means, from my personal point of view, its specific value can reach at least 600,000, hey, Boss Lin, you can be regarded as a treasure, do you intend to sell this map? I personally can bid up to seventy! ”

Lin Zhengqi gave his hands again and again: "Professor Jiang, you are a little unkind, this is given to me by Shen Mo, how can it be easily given to you, if you want it, let your students send it to you!" Hahaha! ”

Everyone joked with each other, and the atmosphere in the hall was peaceful.

Lin Xi turned sideways, her smart eyes flashed on Shen Mo's cheeks, if she was extremely disgusted by the silent behavior at the mouth of the alley yesterday, but today's silent performance was enough to impress her.

's father, Lin Zhengqi, once told a silent story, and at that time she had the impression that he was an arrogant and domineering young master, who did a high-profile foolish thing and lost the national treasure and was imprisoned.

Looking at Shen Mo now, he seems to have already faded the coat of madness, and there is a breeze between his words and deeds, comparing Chen Youlong and him together, and instantly feeling that these two people are not on the same level.

"I almost forgot to get down to business when I mentioned gift-giving!"

Zheng Lei, the master of treasure appreciation, coughed lightly twice: "Boss Lin, today Professor Jiang and I are entrusted by others, and we also come to give Boss Lin a big gift, recently the Chen family and the Lin family have been very close, I heard that the two families are about to have business cooperation, which is a good thing for both sides to help each other!" Boss Chen has a proposal, he wants to make the two good things come together and make them better. ”

Zheng Lao made a gesture, and then saw Huang Zhengyuan get up, holding a tray with both hands, on which four pieces of different styles were presented, from left to right were a pair of gold bowls and chopsticks, a pair of gold bracelets, a gold fruit bowl, and a box made of gold. "Ancient Woman's Box of Rouge Gouache".

As soon as this set of objects was unveiled, the entire hall suddenly shone with golden light, which was particularly eye-catching.

Knowledgeable people can see the significance of this four-piece set at a glance, this is the custom of proposing marriage in the history of Rongcheng, the marriage of men and women, the man must first come to the door to propose, and must bring a four-piece suit, dishes and chopsticks, bracelets, fruit plates, and boxes.

The other party's posture is clearly to come to the door to propose, and it is clear who to propose, naturally it is Lin Zhengqi's only daughter Lin Xi.

Huang Zhengyuan introduced in a dignified manner: "Boss Lin, you don't know, these four treasures are what I worked so hard to find. ”

He picked up the golden bowl and deliberately leaked out the bottom of the golden bowl, and the inscription was clear and clear: Wang Daqing in the third year of the Republic of China.

"You are all masters of antique collections, I don't need to say more about who Wang Daqing is, the master of handmade gold art during the Republic of China, each of his works has been carefully polished, such as this gold bowl, the dragon and phoenix carved around the totem."

"Whether it is the scales of the dragon pattern or the feathers of the phoenix, there is a very layered feel on the hand, and the degree of fineness is as fine as 0,01 mm, which is second to none in the Republic of China at that time, and even now, few craftsmen can reach the level of this kind of polishing."

"There are a total of 53 works of Master Wang Daqing, three of which are collected by the Jinling Museum, each work is the extreme fusion of art and noble identity, and the specific value is understood by everyone, similar to such a set of collections, which can not be taken without a million."

"It can be seen that Boss Chen is very important to this matter, Boss Lin, you can accept it."

"This ......"

Lin Zhengqi snorted, and sweat drops the size of soybeans appeared on the corner of his forehead, and he knew that the Chen family's four-piece suit meant coming to the door.

But this is what her daughter resists the most, and from beginning to end, the girl has no feelings for Chen Youlong.

At the beginning, Lin Zhengqi was also afraid of offending the Chen family, so he agreed to let the two get along for a while, but after meeting for a few times, the Chen family was in a hurry and went directly to the door to propose marriage, which was too sudden.

"The gift is too valuable, our Lin family can't afford to accept it, and the Lin family's small family can't afford to be the work of Master Wang Daqing, you can take it back."

Lin Xi stood up and her cheeks were slightly red, before she had clearly rejected Chen Youlong, and later she was afraid that her father would be caught in the middle and it was difficult to behave, so she agreed to go out with Chen Youlong for two meals.

Now the other party comes to the door to propose marriage, which she can never accept.

Chen Youlong is unwilling to fight on the basis of reason.

"Lin Xi, I am sincere to you, as long as the Chen family has it, I can give it to you! The Chen family can help the Lin family through the economic crisis, and can make the Lin family's Imperial Treasure Zhai business flourish and go to the next level! Let's combine the two of us and do no harm! ”

Lin Xi's attitude was crisp and neat: "Impossible." It's impossible between us, Chen Youlong, you have died of this heart. ”

"Linxi ......"

Lin Zhengqi's face was pale, and he didn't want his daughter to marry Chen Youlong, but today's Lin family is different from the past, with millions of foreign debts on the books, and the Chen family is the biggest creditor among them.

Once the Chen family is suffocated today, they will definitely find an opportunity to fill it up when they turn back, and then the Lin family's Imperial Treasure Zhai will be in danger, and it may close down anytime and anywhere.
