Chapter 1142 The Mysterious Gift
Seeing Chu Yunfeng turn his face, the Duke was not only not angry, but laughed instead.

And seeing that Chu Yunfeng's face was quite ugly, I felt even more relieved. This further showed that Chu Yunfeng did not have any clues to the treasure.

In fact, this is just a test. If Chu Yunfeng hesitates a little, or doesn't mind too much, then the Duke will definitely cancel the transaction.

Just kidding, no fool would do such a thing as making wedding clothes for others.

"Mr. Chu, please be patient. Is there anything we can discuss? After all, we have not discussed this matter carefully before. If there is any problem, we can discuss it carefully!"

After hurriedly getting up and stopping Chu Yunfeng, the Duke began to persuade him with good words. Seeing that Chu Yunfeng was hesitant at this time, the Duke immediately began to increase the pressure.

"Leave the packing issue to me as mentioned before. I will pack everything for you. I will use the most professional team to get it done for you within a week. Is this an expression of my sincerity?"

This was an unexpected gain. Chu Yunfeng originally thought that this issue needed to be "entangled" with him again, but unexpectedly he agreed.

So Chu Yunfeng took advantage of the situation and nodded, then sat back down again, but the expression on his face still remained unhappy.

You must mention what needs to be mentioned, and you must strongly defend your legal rights and interests, so as not to make Duke Dalton suspicious, so Chu Yunfeng immediately said forcefully: "I think the proportion of the previous division needs to be renegotiated.

I think 40% is a reasonable limit. After all, I didn't research the box, otherwise the secret of this treasure should be mine.

And now I don't see any sincerity from the Duke at all. These terms do not emphasize the sharing of treasure information, as well as the notification of treasure retrieval and related cooperation.

This obviously means exclusive use, so the Duke thinks that this cooperation is intended to completely exclude us?

If that's the case, then I might as well do the research myself. After the research results come out, I can find someone else to cooperate. Wouldn't that be better?
Maybe the proportion allocated will be greater than this by then? "

After Chu Yunfeng finished speaking, the Duke's expression immediately changed. He never expected that Chu Yunfeng would make such a move to drain the fire, which could be said to have directly captured his own seven inches.

However, the Duke still had some confidence, and he immediately retorted: "You can't say that, after all, I got more than double the collection in exchange for this box.

And now no one can be sure that this box must contain clues to the treasure, and even if there are clues, who knows whether the clues will be complete?
In the end, even if the clues are complete, there is no guarantee that the treasure will be found, and if the treasure is found, it is not certain that there will be a huge fortune there.

These things are unpredictable, so the profits may seem huge, but the risks are also quite high.

As for what Mr. Chu said about finding others to cooperate, the risks involved are even more uncontrollable. Wouldn’t the other party just take it all for himself? "

Regarding the weaknesses of human nature, the Duke's analysis was quite accurate, so Chu Yunfeng pretended to think about it again and began to continue the discussion with the Duke.

This discussion lasted for three hours, with both parties going back and forth. In the end, Chu Yunfeng lowered the share ratio from 40% to 30%, which also satisfied the Duke.

As for the sharing of treasure information, there are provisions in the agreement. The Duke will share the progress every week.

After the research results come out, Chu Yunfeng will be notified immediately, and then both parties will start making preparations and send people to explore the treasure together.

The terms of the agreement were written in detail, which made the Duke admire Chu Yunfeng's logical ability. However, this seemingly rigorous agreement was a joke to him.

Everything is in his hands, and he has the final say on what he shares with you. As for treasure hunting, as long as the news doesn’t leak out, what the hell does Chu Yunfeng know?

When the time comes, at worst, if you spend more money and do it without being noticed, who will know that you have truly exclusively enjoyed the treasure of a country that is incredibly wealthy?

After the agreement was signed, the Duke was in a good mood. He immediately opened a bottle of top-quality red wine to celebrate, and presented Chu Yunfeng with a box of top-quality red wine on the spot, which seemed very generous.

Mu Qing's eyes were filled with stars. Many of these top-notch red wines were rarely seen at auctions, and there were not just one brand, but several, each with a unique aroma and taste. .

After thanking the Duke, Chu Yunfeng thanked the three teachers. Teacher Jin began to worry: "Xiao Chu, what are you going to do with so many things?"

The other two teachers also paid close attention to Chu Yunfeng's answer, but they saw him smile mysteriously and said: "As mentioned before, the top national treasures will be handed over to the state, and the rest will be set up as a private museum.

All proceeds from the museum are used for charity, and this will continue forever and will never change! "

The last five words "never change" made the three teachers see Chu Yunfeng's firm confidence, so the three of them prepared to repeat the last "sneak attack".

Chu Yunfeng quickly stopped him: "Three teachers, stop being so serious. I am a Chinese and I care about the motherland. This is what I should do.

But I have good news to tell you. I have already found a place for the museum, which is located in the newly built convention and exhibition center in Chengdu.

Now we are about to start the preliminary preparation work, the exhibition and placement of these collections, etc. It’s like asking three teachers!
As for the maintenance of these collections in the future, I also want to ask three teachers, so I want to hire three teachers to be the managers of this museum. I wonder if you are willing? "

Chu Yunfeng's words were very sincere, but he was also a little uneasy in his heart, just because he was afraid that the three teachers would not agree.

After all, according to their current status, it was a bit humiliating to take a job in a private museum. However, what Chu Yunfeng didn't expect was that the three of them actually smiled at each other and immediately agreed.

accepted?
Teacher Cai saw Chu Yunfeng's surprised look and immediately replied with a smile: "We have discussed this matter a long time ago. After all, these things were personally appraised by us three old guys, so we must start and finish everything.

We have discussed it. As long as you really set up a private museum and all the proceeds are used for public welfare, what's the harm if we do a little more? "

Teacher Qiu also immediately added cheerfully: "Even if you didn't mention it, we still want to shamelessly squeeze in for a seat. I didn't even appreciate so many things.

If this goes in, I won't be able to appreciate it every day. You can't drive me away even if you want to! "

Teacher Jin laughed loudly, but Chu Yunfeng was very moved. Although the teachers' words were joking, they were more of recognition of what they had done.

So Chu Yunfeng should bow to them. This made the three teachers feel uncomfortable. Teacher Jin immediately said: "It's over, it's over, it's no big deal, don't be so serious."

Teacher Qiu said jokingly: "It's not the New Year yet, why are you bowing?
And I didn’t prepare any red envelopes. Isn’t this difficult for me? "

After finishing speaking, everyone laughed together, and the joyful atmosphere lingered in the room. Then Chu Yunfeng gave Lao Wang's phone number to the three teachers.

Lao Wang will be responsible for what needs to be made later and how to mobilize these collections.

This saves you the trouble of contacting air freight and other tedious matters. With Lao Wang here, these are not problems.

The packing matter still required supervision by three teachers, so after Chu Yunfeng thanked them, he took Mu Qing on the return plane.

I haven't returned to Chengdu yet. I have to go see the old man first and report this matter to him.

The next morning, when Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing got off the plane, they were pleasantly surprised to find that their grandma had come to pick them up. This made Chu Yunfeng happily rush over and immediately give her a warm hug.

Mu Qing did the same thing later, which made grandma very happy and said: "Not bad, not bad, I have become whiter after going out for a while."

Seeing Mu Qing's shy look, grandma happily led her away: "Go to the parking lot, your grandpa is still waiting for you!"

"What, grandpa is here too?"

Chu Yunfeng was a little surprised. This old man usually had others pick him up, but there weren't many people who could let him pick him up. Even his own father didn't get this treatment.

After arriving at the parking lot, I saw the old man with the window down. Then he got out of the car and nodded to Mu Qing who greeted him, and then cast an appreciative look at Chu Yunfeng: "Get in the car!"

These two simple words made Chu Yunfeng feel great joy. Then grandma and Mu Qing got into the car behind, and Chu Yunfeng sat in the back seat of the car in front with the old man.

After getting in the car, the old man didn't talk nonsense and asked directly: "When will the things come back? What are your plans?"

Chu Yunfeng immediately said seriously: "Three teachers have identified three top national treasures, one of which is a copy of Gu Kaizhi's late Tang Dynasty copy of the "Nv Shi Zhen Tu".

There is also an extremely exquisite square bronze tripod, and the last one is said to be the imperial sword of Emperor Qianlong. It is inlaid with countless gems and is extremely sharp.

The cultural relics of these three top national treasures are to be handed over to the country, and the rest will be established as a private museum, and all the income from tickets and other revenue will be used for charity.

The place has been chosen, it is in the newly renovated convention and exhibition center in Chengdu, and we have already contacted them. When the items come back in a week, they will start displaying them.

Grandpa, do you think it's okay for me to do this? "

When Chu Yunfeng was talking, the old man listened with a serious expression. When he heard the word "charity", this serious expression immediately dissipated a lot.

Finally, he nodded and said only one sentence: "As expected of my grandson, you did a good job, grandpa supports you!
Since the venue has been selected, I won’t bother with other procedures. If you encounter any difficulties, remember to let me know! "

The old man would normally not say such things, but when he said these words, it was obviously his support for Chu Yunfeng's actions, and it also showed his attitude.

In fact, there is no need for him to take action. As long as Chu Yunfeng contacts the relevant departments, it will definitely be handled on a special basis, which is a great thing.

The treasures lost overseas from the Old Summer Palace have returned in large quantities and can be visited. This is definitely a landmark event in the city.

Moreover, it is the only way to stimulate the city's economy. This welcome is too late. If we don't implement this matter quickly, what if someone runs away?
At noon, Chu Yunfeng cooked a delicious meal and accompanied his elders to a comfortable and delicious meal, and then he and Mu Qing got on the plane back to Chengdu.

"Tired?"

After the plane took off, Chu Yunfeng held Mu Qing's hand. The two enjoyed the tranquility of the moment. When they saw Mu Qing's slightly tired look, he asked.

"Not tired, just a little homesick!"

This trip took a little longer, and her mother had just been discharged from the hospital, so Mu Qing missed her dearly.

Chu Yunfeng squeezed her little hand and said considerately: "It's okay, I'll be home soon and I'll see her soon.

I didn’t expect that I would gain so much from this trip. You, a beautiful translator, deserved the most credit, so I must give you a good credit! "

Hearing this, Mu Qing pouted her lips slightly and asked slightly mischievously: "Good at recording your merits, what are you going to reward me for?"

"Uh~!

Let me think about it, how about cooking you a delicious meal?
candlelight dinner? "

Chu Yunfeng thought about it seriously and thought it was a good idea, but unexpectedly Mu Qing immediately shook her head and said: "I don't want it. Does it make it difficult to eat what you cook?
Oh, by the way, why did you cook a special meal for His Majesty the Duke that night? I think you pulled out all the stops for that meal, and even his royal chef was stunned by the western food you made.

Did you think you were ready to show off your skills and steal his job? "

Regarding Mu Qing's question, Chu Yunfeng just replied indifferently: "It's not as serious as you said, what does it mean to use all your strength?
It's just that we always eat so many high-end ingredients from other people for free, and we are a little embarrassed, so we made him a delicious meal, which can be regarded as reciprocity! "

Regarding Chu Yunfeng's statement, Mu Qing gave a look that said, "I don't believe it." She flattened her mouth and closed her eyes to rest. She didn't believe his lies.

When Chu Yunfeng saw that Mu Qing was no longer entangled, he felt relieved. He didn't expect that this little girl's sharp eyes would be noticed by her.

Touching the exquisite diamond hidden in his trouser pocket, Chu Yunfeng felt that the meal was well done.

Because the Duke was eating every day in the manor, Chu Yunfeng made him a portion out of kindness, but it was just a small portion, not specially made for him.

However, such a small portion can only be used to satisfy greed, and there is no need to eat more, which makes the Duke feel very depressed.

Especially when they saw Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qing eating good food with so much portion, and the taste of their own chef's food was completely incomparable, you can imagine the depression in their hearts.

In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore, so the Duke asked Chu Yunfeng if he could cook him an ultimate Western-style meal, and he could pay for it.

There was nothing to say. Chu Yunfeng immediately said that he was looking for gems suitable for matchmaking. The Duke immediately understood and took Chu Yunfeng to his bedroom.

He took out a small box inlaid with various gems directly from the safe. After opening it, Chu Yunfeng's eyes were immediately blinded.

There are several layers in this small box. Every time you open a layer, you can see various gems. The rubies are so red that they turn purple, which shows that the quality is definitely extraordinary.

Sapphires also look dark and sky-blue, and they all look particularly pure, making people unable to put them down.

Emeralds are also quite nice. Chu Yunfeng has rarely seen such large emeralds, and there are even more diamonds, especially a few pink diamonds, which look extremely attractive.

When Chu Yunfeng took Mu Qing to see the ring before, he found that she liked pink diamonds more, so now that he had discovered it, why would he not take action?
He picked up the largest one and waved it in front of the Duke. The Duke immediately agreed happily, and Chu Yunfeng quickly thanked him.

After all, he said he would pay for it, but the Duke refused to accept it and insisted on giving it to him.

This was just a favor to Chu Yunfeng considering that the deal was imminent, but the pink diamond was indeed big enough and worth a lot of money, so Chu Yunfeng cooked such a feast.

I believe that when she finds someone to set the ring, Mu Qing will be very surprised when she proposes.
After the two got off the plane, they were surprised to find that there were many people coming to pick them up.
