Chapter 267: Losing the Soul of the Country
Qin Di is a cultivator who is hidden in the city, and he maintains respect for such an old man.
"Mr. Pang, you came to appreciate the treasure in person?"
Pang Laichen smiled: "When you are old, you are about to enter the earth, and you have lived for a lifetime, so you have this little habit left." ”
Zhang Congyu said: "Mr. Qin, I helped you collect dozens of calligraphy and paintings, as well as some porcelain and jade, but the money is almost gone, what do you think?"
Qin Di said: "Money is not a problem, I'll send it over when I go back." ”
Zhang Congyu praised: "Mr. Qin is so atmospheric, he doesn't even look at any painting he receives, so he is willing to take money outside." ”
Qin Di said: "What's so good-looking? I believe in your vision." ”
Pang Laichen died in 1949, and he did not know about the donation of paintings by his descendants.
At this time, he smiled and said to Qin Di: "As the saying goes, antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times." Now it is a troubled time, antiques, calligraphy and paintings are not worth much, and if you take out a large sum of money to collect paintings, this is a good deal! In a few years, these things can appreciate in value tenfold or hundredfold!"
Qin Di smiled slightly, and thought: "I have a lot of calligraphy and paintings in my hands, some are collected from contemporary painters, some are snatched from Pu Yi and Zhang Xueshan's homes, and there are paintings that were originally stored in the small world, as well as works that have been collected recently, the number of which cannot be counted, and it cannot be measured by money. However, I am ready to wait half a century to donate most of my calligraphy and paintings to the state......"
He has not yet calculated that the two art collection and auction companies in New York have also collected a lot of treasures over the years, including the national treasures stolen by the Eight-Nation Alliance.
Besides, if he is ruthless one day, he may go to the British Museum or the Louvre Museum in France and snatch back all the treasures that belong to China!
However, he did not intend to do so for the time being, and this was based on two factors: First, leaving precious cultural relics in foreign museums can remind the Chinese people not to forget the national shame! Second, the protection of cultural relics is a meticulous work that requires a lot of money, and even if the treasure is snatched back, will it be safe to donate it to the state? It is not possible to destroy the four old ones and smash them! Or they will be filled by some people. Therefore, even if you want to donate, it is not too late to donate after the country is stable, or even before he soars in the day!
"Old man, and Brother Zhang, it's almost noon, I'll treat you to a meal, how about it?"
"Okay, it's rare for Mr. Qin to have a treat, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate. ”
The three of them found a nearby restaurant and chatted while eating.
Pang Laichen sighed: "The Japanese occupy half of China, can it be said that our country is going to perish again?"
Historically, the Yuan Dynasty conquered the Song Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty conquered the Ming Dynasty, which was basically the destruction of the country, but the Chinese civilization was not broken, because it represented the advanced culture in a certain period of time, and it was a solid foundation laid by ancient sages such as Confucius, Mencius, and Laozi.
In the period of the Republic of China, Confucius was swept into the trash, Mencius was thrown into the pile of old papers, Lao Zhuang believers hid in the Taoist temple, Mr. De and Mr. Sai have not yet come in, China has lost its cultural self-confidence, it is equivalent to losing the soul of the country, if the country is destroyed at this time, it will fall into a state of no return!
Therefore, rich intellectuals like Pang Laichen and Zhang Congyu feel very confused.
Qin Di comforted: "Old man, don't worry, before you die, you will definitely see the day when the Japanese surrender!"
Pang Laichen's eyes lit up: "Will the Japanese surrender?"
"Yes, or you'll kick my head off and kick it as a ball!"
"Okay, okay, then I'll try to live two more years!"
Qin Di came out of the restaurant, and after walking a short distance, he knew that someone was following behind him, who seemed to be a spy of No. 76.
He walked and stopped as if nothing had happened, then turned around sharply and slapped the man on the top of the head.
He didn't shoot people to death, and since the catastrophe, he has been very careful and rarely kills again.
After this person's head was photographed by him, he looked like an idiot for at least half a year, and after slowly recovering in the future, he would not remember what he had followed.
Qin Di returned home, made a phone call, called Du Rong over, and told him: "If you don't want to watch Chen Shouting die, in the next two or three months, you must follow him, he will have a catastrophe!"
Du Rong was shocked and asked, "Sir, can you explain in detail, where did the catastrophe come from?"
Qin Di said: "The military command organization of the Demon Capital may be uprooted!"
"Huh?
"The Japanese and the pseudo-agent of No. 76 have been staring at it. ”
"Thank you, sir, for telling me. ”
Du Rong found Chen Shouting and told him about it.
Chen Shouting still refused to believe it, and said: "The military commander has hundreds of people hidden in the demon capital, how can he be uprooted by the enemy?"
Du Rong said: "This is what Mr. said, if you don't listen, don't regret it if you die!"
Chen Shouting asked rhetorically: "Why do you believe what he says so much? Didn't Qin Dashao just give you a secret book? Do you really take what he said as a holy decree?"
Du Rong was very angry, and kicked when he raised his foot, and kicked his ass three times in a row.
Chen Shouting couldn't hide and dodge, and he couldn't beat her, so he hurriedly begged: "Grandma, don't kick, I listen to you, can't you?"
Because he has practiced martial arts for many years, he is also a master of dark energy, and he respects and fears Du Rong in his heart, but he still loves it more, and feels that if he marries the other party home, he will definitely be able to glorify his ancestors.
Moreover, his father has also met with Du Xinwu, and this family affair has been decided, so he will marry Du Rong.
Previously, he went to see Qin Di with Du Rong, thinking that he was just going through the motions of seeing acquaintances, but he didn't think that Qin Di would stick a stick sideways, and he had to withdraw from the military command temporarily, so in his opinion, it was equivalent to interfering with his freedom, and the dog was nosy with a mouse!
He was kicked a few times by Du Rong, thinking about it left and right, feeling uneasy, and was forced to see Wang Tianmu helplessly, saying that he would take half a year off, one to get married, and the other to go back to his hometown in Nanyang to meet the old people at home.
Wang Tianmu frowned, and snorted coldly: "Such a national disaster is at the head, a good man is a horse leather shroud, and the Huns are not destroyed, why do you want to be at home?"
Chen Shouting said hesitantly: "There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great." Stationmaster, do you see that I am also old, do you really wait until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War to get married?"
Wang Tianmu said: "You will be given a maximum of three months of vacation, you remember to go back quickly!"
"Stationmaster, I heard that there are people from No. 76 staring at us and trying to uproot us!"
"Hmph, isn't this normal? The two sides are in a life-and-death relationship, are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid, stationmaster, be careful. ”
"Get out of here!"
Chen Shouting turned around to see Du Rong: "Okay, I asked the stationmaster for three months off, just take advantage of this time to marry you!"
Du Rong said: "Who said that I was married to you? You are disobedient, I will test you for a while." ”
"Grandma, I'm begging you, okay? Hurry up and finish the business, I have to come back to carry out the mission!"
One begged bitterly, the other pushed and half agreed, and finally the two left the magic capital, first went to Guangzhou, and then went to Nanyang, and they really got married. Anyway, Du Rong made up her mind that she would not return to the magic capital within half a year.
