Chapter 320: Preparing to Go North
Qin Di also saw Liang Siyong at the scene, and sighed in his heart.
Liang Siyong, the younger brother of Liang Sicheng and the son of Liang Qichao, was an archaeologist who was elected as the first academician of the Academia Sinica in 1948 at the same time as Liang Sicheng. He died in Beiping in April 1954 at the age of 50 and was buried in the Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery. A year later, her sister-in-law Lin Hui died of illness and was also buried by the Liang family in another cemetery just a few meters away.
Looking at these people in front of him, thinking that they only had a short lifespan of more than ten years, Qin Di felt that life was short, and there were only two ways for immortals, and there was only a sigh left in his heart.
Qin Di turned back to Yan Xue and said, "Take out a little bit of the old ginseng we collected, and give one to each of the masters who are over 40 years old, which can be regarded as our meeting gift." ”
Yan Xue smiled, turned around and went to the next room, pretending to tidy up her bags, and took out a dozen or so of the smallest mountain ginseng from the storage bracelet, which was so shocking that she naturally didn't dare to take it out.
She didn't even prepare a box, just took a piece of flower cloth and wrapped it, and then took it to the living room, spread it out and put it on the table.
Everyone gathered around, and when they saw the mountain ginseng, they were stunned one by one.
"Oh my God, what is this?"
"How can it be so big? People say that seven taels are ginseng, eight taels are treasures, and each plant here is almost a pound, right?"
In this era, there was no artificially cultivated ginseng, and all of them were wild ginseng. If it is artificially cultivated, if you provide suitable fertilizer, it will only take ten years to grow to a pound. But it is extremely rare for wild ginseng to grow to such a large size.
There were several archaeological experts, anthropologists, scholars from ancient times and the present, Li Ji, Dong Zuobin, Tao Menghe, all of whom knew something about ginseng, and they were shocked to see it one by one.
Li Ji shook his head while looking at it: "Oops, oops, such a precious ginseng, the roots are entangled, and a lot of roots are broken, and the quality is ruined, it's a pity......"
Dong Zuobin sighed: "It's the first time I've seen such ginseng, such a collection, and it's ...... to destroy the heavens."
Tao Menghe couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Qin, where did you get this from? How can you get so much? It is dazzling to see and makes us wonder." ”
Qin Di smiled slightly, and didn't explain, because there was no way to explain, those ginseng were still very fresh!
Yan Xue said with a smile: "My husband said that the people present today, aged over 40 years old, will each give one to them." The ginseng is on the table, you can do it yourself, please don't be polite. ”
These people were surprised and delighted, excited, mixed with mixed tastes, greed, hatred and obsession, and did not dare to do it for a while.
In the end, it was Qin Yue who stepped forward, carefully separated the ginseng, and gave it to the masters present.
These people asked Qin Yue for a newspaper, wrapped the ginseng, held it in the palm of their hands, and thanked Qin Di repeatedly.
This specification of old ginseng is simply not available, so the value cannot be measured.
They know in their hearts that they owe each other a lot of favors.
"Mr. Qin, thank you so much!"
Qin Di said with a smile: "You are all the pillars of the country, I gave you ginseng to prolong your life, you must not give it away, otherwise you will live up to my heart." After I go back, slice the ginseng and dry it, and eat one piece for ten days, maybe I can live for a few more years......"
Everyone nodded: "Thank you Mr. Qin for your kindness, we will do as you say, and we don't dare to give it away." ”
Then they took their leave.
When everyone was gone, Qin Yue felt distressed: "Brother, if you take out such a precious ginseng all at once, it can be regarded as a heavy hemorrhage!"
Yan Xue smiled: "It's okay, we still have it, and we have prepared a spiritual root for you, which is even better than the one that was sent out." ”
Qin Yue asked, "Where did you get so much ginseng?"
Qin Di said: "We personally went to Changbai Mountain to dig it!"
"I don't believe it, it's all fresh ginseng, Changbai Mountain is occupied by the Japanese, how can you get there?"
"We ran so fast that the Japanese couldn't stop us. ”
Qin Di didn't want to talk about the Dongtian World, because Qin Yue didn't have a spiritual root, and no matter how much he knew, he couldn't live forever, so it was better not to know than to increase his troubles.
"What about Wang Shu, why is he not at home?"
"He has something to do today, and he happened to go to Chengdu. ”
"Why did you transfer here from Kunming?"
"This ......" Qin Yue saw that there was no one else in the house, and the two children went to play next door, so she said in a low voice: "Brother, I'll discuss something with you, don't scold me when you hear it, okay?"
Qin Di nodded: "Say, what's the matter?"
Qin Yue said: "Wang Shu and I want to go to Pagoda Mountain, where life is very difficult, so we can't take our children there......"
Yan Xue walked to the window and watched the movement outside.
Qin Di took a deep breath and said after a moment's silence: "If you think about it, then go ahead." ”
Qin Yue was overjoyed: "Brother, don't you object to me going over?"
"Why should I object? If you want to go, go early! Don't wait for the Japanese devils to surrender, then it will be too late to go. I'll give you a checkbook. If you need money, you can send someone to a bank in Xi'an to withdraw it, and each check is capped at $100,000, for a total of 50 checks. ”
"Brother, what am I doing with so much money?"
"As the family of the richest man in the Republic of China, you can be low-key and unassuming, but at a critical time, you must show a different style. As the saying goes, it's not strange to have many people, you pay a party fee first, and it can be counted as a vote. ”
"Brother, does it work to sign my name on the check?"
"You give me a signed template, and I take it to the bank to make a note, and then it's done. ”
Qin Di said: "Since you have embarked on this road, let's go on well." Two children, you don't have to worry, just leave it to your mother to watch, just hire a few more maids. ”
Qin Yue said: "Brother, I've caused trouble to the family, if I am tired of my mother, I will feel uneasy......
Qin Di comforted her and said: "Don't worry, my mother is very energetic, she is in charge of a huge school, as well as a medical research institute, so many things, can be done in an orderly manner, taking care of a few children, isn't it a trivial matter......?"
The brother and sister spoke for a while, and then it was time for dinner. Wang Shu did not come back.
Qin Di and Yan Xue stayed in Lizhuang Town for one night, and the next day they went around the neighborhood and visited Dongyue Temple, Kuixing Pavilion, Nanhua Palace, Heavenly Palace, Shizu Palace, Wangye Temple, Xuanluo Palace, Kuixing Pavilion, Zhangjia Ancestral Hall, Baihe Window, Yuwang Temple Nine Dragon Monument......
Among them, the Nine Dragons Tablet has some meaning, 2.7 meters high, 1.3 meters wide, carved with nine dragons shuttling in the sea of clouds, except for one in the middle, the remaining eight are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides, each dragon can carefully distinguish the head, body, tail from it, and the dragon's mouth also contains a jewel that can be rotated and not taken off. The implication is that the dragon of Dayu and the river is subdued, and the nine rivers of the world are connected to the sea, and there is no waterlogging disaster in the world, benefiting the people, and there is the meaning of the unification of the rivers and mountains of Kyushu.
