Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 420 Transferring Collection
Yan Jiekuang is sorting out his books at home. He plans to send some rare and valuable books to his own library for professional preservation.

Suddenly the phone rang, and Yan Jiekuang answered it. It was from the Tibetan Museum, saying that there were a few people at the door who were looking for the owner of the Tibetan Museum and wanted to go into the courtyard, but were stopped by the security guard. When Yan Jiekuang heard this, he was a little confused. Only his own people and Wang Qing and a few others knew about the affairs of his Tibetan Museum. Who were these people and how did they know about it?

Yan Jiekuang told the security guard to avoid conflict if possible and he would go over there immediately. He hung up the phone, thought for a moment, and called his second brother to ask him to send someone over to take a look.

Yan Jiefang said he understood and put down the phone. Yan Jiekuang packed up and went out, heading straight for the Tibetan Museum. As soon as he reached the entrance of the alley, he saw a lot of people gathered at the entrance of his Tibetan Museum, including two police officers. Yan Jiekuang walked over, and the security guard came over when he saw the boss coming. One of the two police officers said, "Are you the owner of this yard?"

Yan Jiekuang said: "Yes, but I don't know what's going on now. Let me find out first."

At this time, several people in suits came over. The leader was a woman who was dressed fashionably in a professional suit. The woman asked, "Sir, what is your name?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know you. What can I do for you?" Yan Jiekuang said. Yan Jiekuang had no intention of dealing with her at all.

The woman's face suddenly turned cold. A middle-aged man next to her immediately stepped forward when he saw something was wrong and said, "This is it, sir. We would like to learn about your collection. Is that okay?"

Yan Jiekuang said, "I'm sorry, my collection is limited, it's all personal preference, I don't like to share with others, the yard is also my private property, I don't like outsiders to enter, officers, this is my attitude, I don't like anyone to disturb me, okay?"

One of the police officers said, "That's your right. They've already made their position clear, so don't bother them any more. This alley is almost blocked by traffic. Please leave quickly."

Those people looked very unhappy. They whispered a few words to each other and then turned and left.

Yan Jiekuang walked up to the two police officers and said, "Thank you. I'm sorry to trouble you. I don't have any good solution."

Both officers said you're welcome and left as well.

Yan Jiekuang followed the security guard into the yard. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Call Wang Qiang and ask him to come over."

Yan Jiekuang returned to his office, smoking and drinking tea, waiting for Wang Qiang there.

Half an hour later, Wang Qiang came to Yan Jiekuang's office. Yan Jiekuang gestured to Wang Qiang to sit anywhere. After a while, a staff member brought him tea.

Yan Jiekuang said, "I have a little trouble here. I want to move the things here. Do you have a place?"

Wang Qiang thought for a moment and said, "We have a safe in Lotus Building. It was used to store business funds and some valuables. We built two safes in total. One is still empty. There is a lot of space there, so it should be able to accommodate everything."

Yan Jiekuang said, "Okay then. I'll ask the people here to pack up, and you go get a car and some people."

Wang Qiang didn't stand up and said, "Old Third, you can't do this. If you really haven't figured out how to treat these collections, you might as well let them go back to where they came from. Even if they are moved to the Lotus Building, if someone finds the Lotus Building in a few days, don't you think it's not safe there?"

Yan Jiekuang remained silent. He didn't dare to exhibit now. Many of his treasures, once exhibited, would surely be noticed by others. There were some people or departments that he couldn't compete with, and it would bring him endless troubles.

Yan Jiekuang lit a cigarette and started smoking. After one cigarette, Yan Jiekuang said, "You are right. I'd better take them back to my own home. It's safer there. Please help me find some reliable people."

After Wang Qiang left, Yan Jiekuang gave the security guards here a holiday and left behind a few maintenance professionals, and then instructed them to start packing.

An hour later, three vans stopped at the back gate of the courtyard. Several people got out and together with the maintenance personnel, they moved the boxes and all the furniture into the trucks. Yan Jiekuang then let the maintenance personnel go on holiday and told them to lock the door when they left.

Yan Jiekuang unloaded the things directly to the backyard of his house, then called Shi Lei and asked him to bring Dapang and Xiaopang home when he was free.

In the afternoon, several children came back, even Shi Li came back.

Yan Jiekuang directed the children to start unpacking the boxes and then move the antiques to the basement. Shi Lei had seen some of these things, and so had Big Fat. Little Fat and Shi Li had never seen them before. Looking at these things, one could tell that they were all very valuable. Shi Li said, "Dad, you hid them really well. How come I have never seen so many good things before?"

Xiao Pang also nodded and said, "Dad, these are antiques, right? They are very valuable, right?"

Shi Lei smiled contemptuously and said, "You are really uneducated. Many of my father's things can be called national treasures, priceless treasures."

Yan Jiekuang said: "These are your father's collections over decades. I started collecting them when I was a few years old." Several people worked for an entire afternoon and finally moved the antiques into the basement, but the furniture had not been moved yet.

Yan Jiekuang said, "Okay, take a break. I'll go cook some food to reward you. Do you know why I called you here?"

Shi Lei said: "I know, it's not appropriate for outsiders to know, the risk factor is too high."

Yan Jiekuang nodded and said, "It's all because of the wedding jars I collected two days ago. Now someone is coveting my things, so it's better for me to hide them."

The children nodded one after another, and Yan Jiekuang went to the kitchen to cook. After a while, Ji Lian also came home. When she got home, she went straight to the kitchen and asked Yan Jiekuang what was going on.

Yan Jiekuang rolled his eyes and said, "How would I know what's going on? Anyway, I know someone wants my stuff, so I have to hide it quickly."

Ji Lian said, "You really don't know? Today, several clients who work with us came to me and asked if you got any treasure. I was stunned by their questions."

Yan Jiekuang said, "I think it was the wedding pot I collected two days ago that caused the trouble. It's okay. I can't afford to cause trouble, but I can hide. By the way, no one is needed at the Tibetan Museum. Just find an old man to watch over the yard. You can arrange the people over there."

Ji Lian said she understood and turned to go to the backyard. Half an hour later, Xiao Hai and Xixi came back from school. Yan Jiekuang started preparing dinner and continued to work after dinner.

Finally, around nine o'clock in the evening, Yan Jiekuang moved all the things to the basement, but there was no time to sort them out so they were all piled up in the basement. Yan Jiekuang locked the basement door and went upstairs.

Ji Lian made him a cup of tea, and the two of them rested under the grape vines in the backyard. The children were tired too, so they went to wash up and rest.

Ji Lian asked: "The courtyard of the Tibetan Pavilion is empty, are you going to leave it there?"

Yan Jiekuang looked at Ji Lian and said, "Why do you have any ideas?"

Ji Lian smiled and said, "Why don't I use it? I'll ask Yang Lifen to set up a travel company. First, it will serve the employees of our group, and second, it will provide some travel routes for the public. Isn't it right next to Prince Gong's Mansion? I think it's quite suitable."

Yan Jiekuang nodded and said, "Okay, you can do whatever you want. I don't have time to take care of the company's affairs anymore. By the way, shouldn't you arrange for Xiaopang and Shi Li to go to the company for internship?"

Ji Lian said, "It's too early. Let's wait until they are in their junior year. It seems that we can't count on Shi Lei and Dapang anymore."

"There's nothing we can do. They are not interested in this and forcing them is useless. Let them be." Yan Jiekuang said.

Ji Lian said: "Now the younger generation has come up and started to take the lead. The middle and senior management may change after several projects are completed next year. At that time, you have to go out and take a look at these people."

Yan Jiekuang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go around in the middle of next year."

Yan Jiekuang took a sip of tea and said, "Let's not expand too quickly. We shouldn't try to get involved in every industry. Let's focus on real estate."

Ji Lian replied: "I know, I won't deviate from my original goal, don't worry."

The couple chatted for a while, then took a shower and went to bed.

Xie Lianfa, the boss of Debao Auction Co., Ltd., was furious in his office at this time, and was cursing at the people who went to the museum yesterday. The reason was that they went there again this morning and an old man opened the door. They were stunned as the place was deserted overnight. Several people asked the old man, but he knew nothing about anything.

In order to get the pair of wedding jars, Xie Lianfa spent 100,000 yuan to inquire about the information. Now he can't find anyone. What should he do?
The more Xie Lianfa thought about it, the angrier he got, so he called a childhood friend, who was a gangster from Xidan who had just been released from prison. Xie Lianfa told him to find the man with the wedding can no matter what. If he couldn't find him, he should go find Lao Liu and ask him to return the money, as he couldn't pay for it anyway. His childhood friend agreed, but asked for 10,000 yuan as a service fee. Xie Lianfa agreed and said he would give him another 10,000 yuan after the task was completed.

Yan Jiekuang did not go out for the next few days and started to tidy up the basement. He put things that should be put on the bookshelf on the bookshelf, things that should be put on the shelves on the shelves, things that should be put on the antique shelves on the antique shelves, and things that should be packed in boxes and stacked them. He was busy for several days in a row. When Yan Jiekuang took a look, he thought it was an underground museum. He was very satisfied with his placement and furnishings.

Having not visited his parents for so many days, Yan Jiekuang felt that he had to go there, so he packed up, picked up two fish bought at the morning market, and headed for No. 95 Courtyard.

Before he reached his parents' house, he saw his eldest brother sitting at the gate of the west wing smoking from a distance. He was alone, and Yan Jiekuang was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be so idle. Yan Jiekuang walked straight over.
