Chapter 124 Pickup is not a car?
Chapter 124. Isn't a pickup a car?
"what?"

"How many?"

"Two thousand and five days?"

When they heard the price, the three of them were stunned. With their consumption level, one month's living expenses were not enough to cover the daily expenses, and they couldn't help showing expressions of disbelief.

"Who are you bluffing? It looks like you rented it."

"Forget it, ignore her. Let's take Jiang Jinxiong's car and let her go alone. When the research is over, we will report to the teacher. She has no part!"

"Yes."

The three chattered and taunted for a while, and immediately walked towards Jiang Jinxiong's car. After all, they had high eyesight and low hands, and they recognized it as a Lincoln Navigator at a glance, worth more than 100 million. They immediately surrounded the car and praised it.

Ren Ping shook his head in the driver's seat of his pickup truck, thinking that the three girls would be considered blind even if they ignored a big antique dealer roommate with countless treasures at home and went to curry favor with others.

"Is it okay to destroy the relationship between your roommates like this?"

"It's okay, I don't live in the dormitory often, and I didn't know them well at first,"

Su Rui smiled generously: "Shall we go?"

"Wait, they will come back."

"Huh? What?"

Seeing Ren Ping's expression of seeing it for yourself, he rolled down the car window and listened carefully. Sure enough, after Jiang Jinxiong and Xiaowen got on the car, they actually refused to carry three girls:

"Jiang Jinxiong, didn't you just say you can squeeze!"

"Did I say it? Didn't I? Even if I did, I told Su Rui that now that she's not sitting, you should go to her car. "

"In her car, I can't even get through the Ninety-Five Palace Gate!"

"That won't be the case. With my car leading the way and you following behind, even a tractor can get in. Bye, see you later."

He laughed and drove away straight away.

The three women were so angry that they trembled all over and froze in place. After a long time, they came over with their heads lowered and were about to open the trunk door without saying a word.

Ren Ping was finally defeated by their shamelessness. He immediately locked the car door and pointed back:
"There is something in the car, you sit in the back."

"What? Let's sit in the cargo box?"

"There's obviously a seat in the back seat!"

"I like to sit or not."

Ren Ping shook the car windshield up, and immediately started the car.

The three girls jumped in anger. After hesitating for a moment, they finally climbed onto the cargo box, knowing that without Jiang Jinxiong's Lincoln leading the way, they would not be able to get to the Ninth Five-Year Palace even if they changed cars.

Su Rui was rolling with laughter in the co-pilot position, pointing at Ren Ping:

"You are so cruel! How could you do this to a girl?"

"It's just a lesson for them. If you have too much vanity, you will hit a wall when you enter society, and that will be harmful."

"How much older are you than us? Preaching like this?"

"At least I know how much energy I have to eat. Isn't a pickup truck a car?"

Ren Ping thought of his former self. Although he was ignorant, he did not put on airs of a rich second generation, nor did he worship money too much. This was one of the rare and outstanding qualities at that time.

After a pause, his face became serious:

"Okay, don't talk about them, talk about you, what's the matter?"

When the three girls were eating in the cargo box and covering their faces in shame, Su Rui finally revealed his true purpose.

"Do you know who that boy is?"

She pointed at Lincoln in front of the car window, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Ren Ping smiled:
"Not one of your suitors?"

"He is not worthy. I mean his family background. His surname is Jiang, and he is actually a member of the Jiang Group behind the Ninth Five-Year Palace."

"Oh? Then wouldn't it be easy for him to do your research, and it is still necessary... Oh, I see, you deliberately chose this enterprise research to do it, just to use his identity as a cover."

Su Rui looked him up and down, with undisguised appreciation in his eyes:
"You're smart, no wonder even Sister Longwei likes you so much, have you established a relationship?"

"You think too much……"

"Haha, don't worry about it. I just said it casually. You guessed it right. When I was choosing a topic, I had some tricks with the teacher to choose the one from the Ninth Five-Year Palace."

"It's ridiculous that this idiot thinks that I don't know his identity like everyone else, and when he thinks of it, he will show up to scare me and give him a green eye. In fact, I have already investigated their family clearly."

"What's your purpose? What exactly is in the ninety-five palace?"

"Have you heard of "Tokyo Menghualu"?"

Su Rui said, his eyes fixed.

Ren Ping was even more shocked. "Tokyo Dream Record" is such a famous name, how could he not have heard of it?

This is a note-style prose written in the Jingkang period of Emperor Qinzong of the Northern Song Dynasty. It records the urban customs and customs of Kaifeng Prefecture, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Although it is prose, the content recorded in it covers a wide range, from princes and nobles to ordinary people, from the imperial palace in the capital city to the city neighbors.

In addition, various daily life scenes such as seasonal festivals, eating and drinking, singing and dancing, etc., are of great significance for later generations to study the social history and culture of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Because of this, many historians even rank it together with the well-known "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" at home and abroad, and call it the second most important historical document of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Even if many people don't understand the content of the book, most of them have heard of these five words.

Oh, yes, one more thing. The Jingkang period when this book was written was the year of the famous "Jingkang Shame" in history, that is, the second year of Jingkang. The events recorded in the book are old events of the Northern Song Dynasty, and from then on it was the Southern Song Dynasty.

Therefore, regardless of the content itself, the manuscript of this special year is also extremely valuable.

But why did Su Rui bring this up?
Could it be that there is actually a manuscript of "Tokyo Menghualu" in the Ninth Five-Year Palace?

With an inconceivable mood to ask his own question, Su Rui smiled slightly:
"Of course it can't be the original manuscript, but it's about the same. It's a very precious Southern Song reprint."

"Reprint? Is it still different from the original?"

"There is a difference for historians, but there is basically no difference for us collectors. Even the replicas are better."

Ren Ping was stunned for a moment, then realized that if it was the original manuscript of "Tokyo Dreams", it would be extraordinary. It is a national treasure-level cultural relic and cannot be circulated in the market.

Reprints are different. No matter how high the value is, as long as it is not a national treasure, it can be bought and sold. Naturally, the auction house is even more eye-catching.

And then, what Su Rui said revealed more truth.

It turns out that the original owner of this replica is the Su family of Hanhaixing, and it is their treasure. Because it has never been announced to the outside world, few people know about it.

More than ten years ago, the Jiang family of the Ninth Five-Year Court had a feud with Han Haixing, and used some extraordinary means to obtain this replica.

However, by chance, they didn't know the value of this copy, and even put it in another cultural relic of the Northern Song Dynasty without realizing it.

This left Han Haixing with great thoughts. If he could obtain that cultural relic without anyone noticing, then the more precious replica of "Tokyo Menghualu" would naturally be in his pocket.

"So, this is actually a task your grandfather entrusted to you?"

Think about it carefully, Ren Ping said.

"That's right, I was only a few years old more than ten years ago. How did I know about this? Grandpa has always been on his mind and told me not long ago. Besides, I, a young man, won't attract much attention. "

"Then if you tell me so frankly, you won't be afraid of leaking the secret? Fortunately, your three roommates are in the cargo box, otherwise even they would know."

Su Rui smiled when he heard the words:
"That's what Grandpa meant. He said that we can't do this on our own. Since we are asking for help, we must be honest with each other."

"What's more, Hanhaixing sold a favor to someone at the cost of a six-character knife. I heard that the person was reasonable and always knew to pay it back, right?"

As soon as the words fell, the two looked at each other, and they both burst into laughter.

What Su Rui was laughing at was that she had already known Ren Ping's personality from Long Wei, so she was not afraid that he would cut him off.

Ren Ping laughed that the grandpa and grandson of the Su family were too scheming, and they had been thinking about him since the day of the Spring and Autumn League entrance examination. In fact, as long as they asked Long Wei to ask, how could he refuse?
Although the three girls huddled in the back cargo box couldn't hear what the two of them said specifically, they could hear the burst of laughter, and they were all filled with righteous indignation:
"This Su Rui didn't know what medicine he took wrongly. Instead of sitting in a good Lincoln, he chose to sit in this broken pickup, which made us suffer here too!"

"These two laughed so loudly, didn't they mean to make fun of us?"

"It seems that it is against the traffic regulations to carry people in the cargo box. Just wait, we will get off the car in a while..."

There was a screeching sound, and a car suddenly braked. The three of them felt that the pickup truck suddenly swayed from side to side. If they hadn't been holding on to the edge of the car, they would have been thrown out. At that moment, they were even more determined to be toyed with. He kept yelling angrily.

In fact, Ren Ping certainly would not be so bold as to make fun of human life, but the Lincoln car in front suddenly braked, and when he was about to turn, he stopped himself.

At first, Ren Ping thought it was an accident, but after he did it again, he realized that the other party did it on purpose, and couldn't help being furious.

I thought that the second generation surnamed Jiang had lost his mind in order to chase Su Rui, or he didn't take human life seriously, but he used this way to show off his sense of superiority in luxury cars.

If he hadn't practiced ancient martial arts just now, his nervous response would have been better than ordinary people unconsciously, I'm afraid it would have been an accident long ago.

"Bastard! This kid is desperate! I'll teach him a lesson!"

Seeing Jiang Jinxiong's intentions at the first time, Su Rui was furious, and immediately wanted to get out of the car and beat someone.

Ren Ping still locked the car door:

"No rush, we'll talk about it later,"

After a pause, he sneered:
"Are the Jiangs from the Ninth Five-Year Court you're talking about all such brainless idiots?"

"Of course not. This guy is at best a scrap. The Jiang Group has a lot of background. Don't look like it's in the catering industry, but it's also very deep in the cultural relics industry, especially when it comes to their old business, such as tableware and wine utensils." kind."

"Tableware, wine set?"

"That's right. Although many of these cultural relics belong to porcelain, most of them are miscellaneous. I, Hanhaixing, am not proficient in this field, so I am a little bit powerless."

"Oh? Miscellaneous..."

Ren Ping murmured in a low voice.

At this time, he had already entered the welcome area of ​​the Ninth Five-Year Palace, and before Ren Ping could stop the car, suddenly, Lincoln in front of him suddenly stopped and almost collided back and forth again.

After Jiang Jinxiong got off the car with an arrogant expression, he kicked the front of the pickup truck directly on the face:

"Hey! Be careful driving! If you scratch my paint, you won't be able to pay for the whole car!"
