Pick up treasure

The Cultural Relics Appreciation Association issued an invitation to Wang Ding and Zhang Bi on the first day after they returned to China, asking them to come and talk about their experience studying abroad.

But because the two of them went out for a week, Wang Ding and Zhang Bi would have something to do, so the Cultural Association postponed it for two days and planned to invite the two of them over tomorrow.

But when Wang Ding appeared in the Cultural Association at this time, Mr. Zhuang was very excited.

The room of the Cultural Association is not big, but it has a refined atmosphere as always. The calligraphy and paintings of famous artists on the walls are newly purchased, which makes the room full of elegance and spirituality.A pair of Mr. Zhang Daqian's splashed ink and watercolor, with its profound intention and artistic conception, instantly purified Wang Dingqian's heart.

"Wang Ding, you're here, sit down, sit down. We originally planned to ask you to come over tomorrow, but you reported first today."

Elder Zhuang first signaled Wang Ding to sit down, but the old man Fang Heqing's face was a little elongated, and he didn't greet Wang Ding.

Wang Ding sat down cautiously, but his mother didn't dare to cover the stool. Looking at the two seniors, Wang Ding nodded and said, "Mr. The old man's face is stretched to Changbaishan, and he is really uncomfortable. I want to say that it's not that I didn't come to the Cultural Association immediately after I came back from France, it's really because there are too many things at home."

"I know, I just came back to do some things, so I didn't inform you to come, it's okay." Mr. Zhuang expressed his understanding and nodded in agreement, but Fang Heqing snorted, "You are busy, you are a very busy person, and you will take your own money when you come back. The jewelry store opened in full swing, and we two old men went to congratulate you. But I really want to ask you, do you think that opening a jewelry store makes money, and then you stop studying? My old man told you , China's 5000-year-old traditional culture, its charm is far more than your emerald jewels."

Fang Heqing spoke bluntly, and Wang Ding realized why the old man's face rose when he entered the door.It turned out that he thought that he had become rich, changed, became a businessman chasing fame and fortune, and was no longer keen on collecting.

Wang Ding simply stood up, walked slowly to the calligraphy and paintings in the hall, and said with his head raised. "Mr. Fang, are these paintings newly replaced by the Cultural Association?"

Fang Heqing didn't buy Wang Ding's face, and thought that if you want to change the subject, I won't accompany you.

Elder Fang didn't speak, but Elder Zhuang nodded and said, "It was just changed a few days ago, what's the matter?"

"No, let me take a look, Mr. Zhuang. If I read it correctly, this painting is "Su Zi Yin Xiao Tu" by Mr. Fan Zeng, and this one is the ink painting "Imitation of Bada Mountain" created by Master Li Keran. People", and this character is Mr. Liu Bingsen's regular script "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng", isn't it?"

Although these paintings have inscriptions, but the names in the inscriptions are not so obvious, and they are not my own name, but Wang Ding can see these paintings at once, it is indeed not easy.

"You're right, so what do you want to say?"

Fang Lao felt that this Wang Ding was showing off!

Wang Ding didn't think it was an honor to guess right, so he smiled and said, "Why did I say this? You may have misunderstood Mr. Fang. I said it, but I just wanted to express: my enthusiasm for collecting art, Wang Ding, will not diminish. Every penny. I love collecting, and I will definitely carry this business through to the end. But..."

Wang Ding changed the subject and faced Fang Heqing. "This does not mean that I am just a quiet collector like Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Fang. I think contemporary collectors should have more integrity and responsibility. During this trip to Paris, I will I saw that there are many treasures of our country abroad, but because they require a very high redemption price, the Chinese are simply unable to bring them back to the motherland, so the cultural relics that should have been exhibited in the Palace Museum of China are exhibited in the Paris Museum. Isn’t this a kind of sadness for Chinese people with strange names such as the Charles de Gaulle Museum and the Louvre Museum? Because of this, my colleagues who are dedicated to the collection business need the support of other industries. I don’t think it’s so bad I think I am saving this kind of sorrow. When I use the money I earn to redeem the cultural relics belonging to our country, let it recognize its ancestors and return to its roots. I think the career I do at that time is really meaningful .”

Wang Ding looked at Fang Heqing, and when his eyes met, Wang Ding's speech made Fang Heqing's blood boil.

"Okay." Fang Heqing applauded directly, pushed the stool away, and Fang Heqing patted Wang Ding's shoulder directly. "Okay, young man, I actually had such passionate speeches when I was young like you. However, Mr. Fang has never fulfilled this wish in his life. Wang Ding, it is good that you have this revenge, and you have put it into action , old man, I am even more pleased, I only hope that you can always keep in mind what you said, and help the motherland get back the treasures that originally belonged to our country."

Fang Heqing was very excited when he spoke, but muddy tears were about to flow from his old eyes. Wang Ding knew very well that old artists like Fang Lao and Zhuang Lao lived in the Qing Dynasty. Their elders lived in the Qing Dynasty. The fathers felt that the great powers robbed us of the treasures from us, and they desperately hoped that those treasures that had been abroad could go home as soon as possible.

Although Wang Ding came in a hurry this time, he did not come empty-handed. From Paris, Wang Ding got dozens of Chinese treasures. There is a luminous pearl, and a gold seal of the Japanese slave king.

Seeing Fang Lao so excited, Wang Ding couldn't hide his inner heat.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Zhuang, I also redeemed several treasures from Paris this time. I want to give one of the particularly precious treasures to our Gancheng Museum."

"Oh, what treasure are you going to give to the museum?"

Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Fang are very pleased that the young people have this kind of heart, which shows that Wang Ding is concerned about the motherland.

"This treasure is a treasure that records the historical facts of a subordination relationship between ancient China and Japan. With this treasure, we can know that the Chinese government and Japan had frequent exchanges at that time, and so did Japan. He bowed his head to our country and often gave generous gifts to our country."

"you are right?"

Elder Zhuang is already thinking about what this treasure is.

As for Mr. Fang, he watched Wang Ding to see what treasure Wang Ding had brought to record the historical exchanges between China and Japan.

Wang Ding slowly took out a gold seal of the Japanese slave king. The gold seal is square, with a side length of more than 2 cm and a printing pad about 1 cm high. There is a snake-shaped button on the pad, and the words "Han Wei Nu King" are engraved on it. .When he placed the gold seal on the table, Mr. Zhuang recognized it immediately.

"This is the golden seal of the Hanwonu king. It was discovered accidentally by two tenant farmers named Xiuzhi and Xiping when they were plowing and digging ditches in the fourth year of Tianming. After the gold seal was unearthed, it went on for a hundred years. It was treasured in the museum, and then sold at a high price by 日#本政axe, and finally it seems to be treasured in the museum of the Louvre in France, why, he will be in your hands?"

"Mr. Zhuang is really knowledgeable. I bought this gold seal at the Louvre Museum in France. I saw a pair of people saying #我们想要治了这个金印印, in an attempt to erase that period of history , so I tried my best to buy this gold seal. I think as a Chinese, I have the responsibility and obligation to do so. Now that the gold seal is back, I want to donate it to our Gancheng, and put it in the In the museum, let the Chinese people know this period of history.”

"good very good."

Mr. Zhuang didn't want to talk about how much this gold seal was worth. The historical significance and existence significance of this gold seal had already exceeded its own price.

Mr. Zhuang was very excited, "Wang Ding, it seems that we chose to ask you to go to France. Your trip to Paris is very meaningful. By the way, I heard from Deputy Director Carlo that your performance there Excellent, not only did you learn the art of sculpture in France, but you also won the championship in their local competition."

Carlo has been connecting with Paris, France, so Zhuang Lao, Fang Lao and the others still know something about Wang Ding and Zhang Bi in Paris.

However, Carlo didn't know about Wang Ding's elegant solution to the case in Paris, because the French side basically stole the news.

Wang Ding smiled shyly, how could he admit such a thing.

"Wang Ding, after the trip to Paris, you should continue to make preparations. We think we need to send you abroad to continue your studies. We want to train you to become a new generation of collectors and become the pride of the Chinese people. As for the second country you went abroad, which one are you more interested in?"

"Ah? Going abroad again? About when. Mr. Zhuang, you know that when I return to China, the business of the jewelry store has not yet entered the right track..."

"Haha, Wang Ding, don't worry, we will arrange an appropriate time, and it will not be so fast to go abroad, because we need to get in touch with the cultural relics institution of that country before going abroad, and now we just need to know which country you want to go to , Prepare in advance. There are several stations where we arrange the study, you can actually choose the order, and if you have no special requirements, we will arrange it directly."

Wang Ding thought for a while and said, "I don't have any request, not yet."

If Wang Ding wanted to go to India before, because he needed to help Mr. Sean James find his son, but since this problem has been solved in Paris, France, then naturally there is no need to go to India, or not Need to go to India in such a hurry.

Well, Wang Ding really has no idea where to go!

"Mr. Zhuang, Mr. Fang, since the matter of going abroad is not so urgent, let's not talk about it. I have a more urgent matter to ask you. I would like to ask, do you know that Empress Dowager Cixi has a pair of emerald watermelons?" continued.)
