Chapter 514

The purpose of Professor Han's business trip with the two of them this time is to bring back the cultural relics stolen from the city museum.

As for the leave needed for business trips, Chu Ning and Lu Jiafan don't need to worry at all, the school will take the initiative to help them take care of it.

Facing Professor Han's words, Lu Jiafan couldn't hide his excitement, but Chu Ning was quite speechless.

It's rare that her father pushed the invitation from the museum, but Professor Han stepped in again and brought her along!

She knew that Professor Han was dedicated to serving the public, and she couldn't bear to let so many cultural resources fall outside, so she took up this errand.

However, based on the style of the city museum, if the museum doesn't clean it up, even if they bring back the stolen cultural relics, they will definitely be stolen in the end.

This goes on and on again, is there an end?

Otherwise, it's not true that there is no one available in the city museum, so why did they find Professor Han?
Professor Han didn't notice Chu Ning's slack, and said excitedly: "The unearthed cultural relics are the wealth left to the people of the country by history. We must not let these cultural relics fall into private hands, and we must bring them back to the museum!"

Lu Jiafan nodded vigorously, obviously agreeing with Professor Han's words.

Chu Ning noticed something, and asked intently: "Professor, do you already know the whereabouts of the stolen cultural relics?"

Professor Han was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "You girl, you are really smart enough to even see this! But, how did you guess this?"

Chu Ning was stunned, but Lu Jiafan was puzzled.

"If you didn't already know the whereabouts of the stolen cultural relics, how could you tell us to go directly to the capital?" Chu Ning laughed.

Lu Jiafan also reacted immediately, his face full of surprise.

Professor Han nodded in satisfaction: "You are right. I do know the whereabouts of the stolen cultural relics. I was told by my acquaintances in the capital."

It turned out that the cultural relics stolen from the Municipal Museum were not smuggled out of the country, but were sold domestically.

The next home to sell the stolen goods is in the capital.

What is even more surprising is that the people who bought the stolen cultural relics did not know that they were buying cultural relics, but thought they were ordinary antiques, and entrusted an auction house in the capital to auction them.

The person who bought the stolen cultural relics was not a pure collector. He was almost a second-hand dealer. He bought antiques at a low price and then sold them at a high price to make a profit from the difference.

He bought this batch of antiques in a package, and the other party looked eager to sell them for money. He also took this opportunity to lower the price, and got the batch of antiques at almost [-]% of the market price.

Of course he could see that there might be something wrong with the origin of this batch of antiques, but there are so many antiques in the country, and there are not a few of them with repeated styles.With his connections, it is not a problem at all to wash these antiques and sell them at a high price.

In fact, he did indeed accomplish this.

It's just that the problem with the exhibition activities of the Hanzhou Museum was too big. The appraisers in Hanzhou were very angry and attached great importance to this matter. They asked a lot of connections in private to inquire about the whereabouts of these stolen cultural relics. The capital was soon found.

The people who bought the antiques were considered smart. They didn't send all the cultural relics to the auction house at once. For the first time, they only took out three pieces, and they were still three antiques of different categories.

It's a pity that the auction has not yet started, and the matter of the Hanzhou City Museum has simmered.

The expert appraisers in the industry checked carefully and quickly found these three antiques.

Dean Xuan of Jingcheng University had personally negotiated with the other party, and confirmed that all the stolen cultural relics should be in his hands.But the other party is very cunning, not only does not admit that the antiques in his hands are cultural relics, but also sues the auction house he commissioned for breach of contract, leaking information about the antiques he commissioned for auction, and demands that the auction house compensate him for his losses.

The auction house he entrusted was the one that Gu Wei worked for.

It was Gu Wei who discovered the strangeness of these three antiques, and he also informed his master.

Now that something like this happened, and Guwei failed to buy the six-party set of bottles in Hanzhou, and Ding Bo tricked him into accepting a batch of fakes, the auction house was very dissatisfied with Guwei, making it difficult for Guwei to intervene in this matter. Things, we have to avoid suspicion.

Chu Ning understood.

It turned out that the "acquaintance in the capital" that Professor Han mentioned was Dean Xuan!

Thinking about the whereabouts of the stolen cultural relics, it should be Professor Han who got the news first, and then notified the city museum.Unexpectedly, the Municipal Museum simply entrusted this matter to Professor Han and asked Professor Han to bring back the stolen cultural relics.

The idea of ​​the city museum is too shrewd!

After listening to Professor Han's explanation, it is clear that these stolen cultural relics are obviously not so easy to bring back.Moreover, the person that even Dean Xuan can't win must have a strong background, so how could Professor Han be able to persuade him?
If they go to the capital this time, it would be great if they can really bring back the stolen cultural relics.If you can't bring it back, can the city museum not have a fight with Professor Han?

What her father did for the museum before is the best example.

But seeing Professor Han's excitement now, Chu Ning knew that she would definitely not be able to persuade Professor Han.

Besides, Professor Han has already agreed to the city museum.If he suddenly repents now, Professor Han will also have an unpleasant quarrel with the Municipal Museum, and even give Professor Han a bad reputation.

No way, they can only make this trip.

Chu Ning thought for a while and asked, "Professor, will all our expenses for going to the capital be reimbursed by the city museum?"

Professor Han didn't think too much, nodded and said: "Of course. We are on a business trip, and the expenses can of course be reimbursed."

Before the words fell, Professor Han had already laughed.

He thought that Chu Ning was worried about whether to pay for it at her own expense, and felt that the young girls nowadays are quite good at living, and even noticed this little detail.

When Chu Ning saw Professor Han's appearance, she knew that Professor Han didn't understand the real meaning of her words.

Chu Ning had no choice but to make it clear: "If it takes money to recover the stolen antiques this time, and the money spent is not a small amount, will the city museum reimburse it?"

The city museum had already allocated a large sum of money for the batch of stolen cultural relics in the hands of Mas.Although [-]% of them were donated by the municipal government to various businesses in Hanzhou, the city museum had no money-making projects in the first place, and it almost wiped out its own wealth that time.

Now that this kind of thing happened again, the city museum might not be able to spend much money.

In this way, wouldn't Professor Han have to pay for it out of his own pocket, only to make a wedding dress for the city museum instead?
Professor Han was stunned and said: "No way, it still costs money?! It's a cultural relic, and we are kind enough if we don't tell the other party. How dare he ask us for money?!"
