Colorful Spirit Eyes

Chapter 189 Taking the opportunity to extort money (4)

As soon as Ryoko Yamana left with the three sisters, Hong Guoquan came happily. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Eucommia ulmoides with a bad look, sitting on the couch and sulking.

Hong Guoquan was very happy. This was the first time he saw Du Zhong like this. He walked over and patted Du Zhong on the shoulder. He grinned and asked: Brother, which brother or sister are you angry with?

Du Zhong rolled his eyes at Hong Guoquan, looked at Hong Guoquan's cheerful expression, and asked with a sullen face: What makes you so happy?

Hong Guoquan pulled up a chair and sat down, crossed his legs, took out a cigar for the first time and put it in his mouth, took out a lighter and lit it, smiling like a rogue: Hey, brother, you tell me. The matter is done, do you think I can be unhappy?

Du Zhong was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this, then suddenly stood up, looked at Hong Guoquan in disbelief, his voice trembled a little, and asked: You... you mean, Britain promised to return cultural relics La?

Hong Guoquan was not surprised by Du Zhong's reaction. He looked at Du Zhong happily, nodded and said: Yes, I agree.

After receiving the confirmation, Eucommia clenched her fists instantly. Her excitement was beyond words, and she asked: How much did you promise to return? Is there a third?

Hong Guoquan was so angry that he looked at Eucommia ulmoides and said dissatisfied: I, Hong Guoquan, am so useless in your eyes? one third? Grandma... After cursing, Hong Guoquan gestured like a pistol and said: Eighty percent...

Eighty percent? Did they promise to return 80%? Really 80%? Is there a directory? Should we choose it ourselves, or should they choose it and send it back? Du Zhong stepped forward and grabbed Hong Guoquan's arm, and asked a series of questions directly.

Seeing Eucommia ulmoides so excited, Hong Guoquan leaned back. To be honest, the moment the other party agreed, Hong Guoquan also looked like Eucommia ulmoides was not much different from now. It was not until that moment that he understood why Eucommia ulmoides looked at these things. So heavy. Hong Guoquan smiled with a gentle expression and patiently answered one by one: It is indeed 80%... The list of returned cultural relics will be the latest and will be sent before tomorrow afternoon... Let us choose... ····

After listening to Hong Guoquan's words, Eucommia ulmoides jumped up excitedly on the spot and shouted in a deep voice: Great... This great news, let Eucommia ulmoides put aside all the unpleasantness Shanteng Yezhu brought him. Out of mind. At this moment, he couldn't wait to see those treasures that had been lost overseas for many years, and take a good look at those silent treasures that had witnessed countless histories.

Hong Guoquan could completely understand what Eucommia was feeling at this moment, and he happily watched Eucommia jumping up and down like a child. Hong Guoquan said cheerfully: Eucommia ulmoides, I thought you lost before, but now I feel that we have made a profit.

Du Zhong turned his head and grinned: Of course, no amount of money can be exchanged for those treasures.

Hong Guoquan smiled and nodded, took a long puff of his cigar, puffed out a smoke ring leisurely, and asked: When the time comes, do you want to go and see it for yourself?

Eucommia ulmoides nodded quickly and said: I'll go, I'll go, I'll go.

The look of Eucommia ulmoides at this time immediately made Hong Guoquan laugh, and he joked: "I'll strangle you and see how much fun you have." By the way, have you thought about what to do with these cultural relics? Should it be placed in the National Palace Museum or in your intangible cultural heritage museum? I haven't reported this up yet, so you still have time to think it over.

Du Zhong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't think about it. Of course it will be placed in my intangible cultural heritage museum. I don't believe those people in the Palace Museum. You don't know. I heard that many treasures were lost. I finally got them back." When someone secretly sold a few pieces to me, I had no place to cry.

Hong Guoquan nodded after listening. He was also very clear about the negligence of many relevant departments in the country. He also felt that Du Zhong's concerns were not wrong. He said: "Okay, I will add your statement to my report. I believe it is not right." It will take away your face. As he said this, Hong Guoquan stood up and reminded before leaving: You'd better say hello to your family in advance and properly arrange for some trustworthy people to be among them. This will make you more confident. After all, neither you nor I are experts in this field.

Du Zhong nodded, but Du Zhong disagreed with this and said in his heart: People who can play tricks in front of me have not been born yet. However, he still took out his mobile phone and called his aunt Du Haizhen first. The cultural department was under the control of her aunt half a year ago.

Because this negotiation was led by the Bank of East Asia, domestic senior officials did not understand it yet. Du Haizhen hasn't received a call from her nephew for a long time. Unlike the two uncles, my aunt has always been very caring towards Eucommia ulmoides, and she never speaks out to teach her a lesson. After the call was connected, Du Haizhen's first words were: Xiao Zhong, have you had a good meal recently? If you have nothing to do, go home quickly and don't stay outside.

The care of relatives made Eucommia feel warm in her heart. She smiled and said: Auntie, I have good news for you.

Du Haizhen laughed after hearing this and asked: What's the good news? You kid, you clean up weird things all day long.

Du Zhong laughed and told the contents of the negotiation with Britain, and then asked proudly: How was it? Auntie, is this good news?

After Du Haizhen finished listening, she was silent for half a minute, with excitement in her voice, and asked: Is everything you said true? Did they really agree to return 80% of the cultural relics? She is now in charge of the cultural port, and of course she knows the meaning contained in it.

Eucommia ulmoides said simply: "It's true, Auntie, they really agreed, but I have something to say beforehand. These returned cultural relics must be placed in the Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum. I don't trust the management of the Palace Museum."

After hearing this, Du Haizhen didn't hesitate at all, and directly agreed: OK, OK, it's all up to you, Xiaozhong, you did the right thing, such a precious treasure can be taken back, which cannot be replaced by money, my aunt supports you, So proud of you too.

Being praised by the aunt, Du Zhong scratched the back of his head and said with a smile: Hehe, aunt, please arrange the list of people to receive the reception, um... Speaking of this, Du Zhong thought for a moment and continued: I hope, Professor Fu Guoqiang can preside over this matter, and I am very confident in his professionalism.

Of course, Du Haizhen had no objection to her nephew's request, and said: "Okay, I will do as you say, and I will immediately arrange manpower to organize the people."

The aunt and nephew discussed some details and then hung up the phone. When this news came out, it shocked the senior management, who took the return of cultural relics extremely seriously. The "big boss" personally emphasized that they must do a good job in receiving the cultural relics and set a tone for their behavior.

The "big boss" made a statement, and all relevant departments at the top and bottom coordinated, and directly affiliated units of all sizes held meetings overnight. Professor Fu Guoqiang also received the dispatch notice immediately. When he learned that the move was caused by Eucommia ulmoides, he excitedly called the latter directly.

Xiao Du... Is it true that those cultural relics have returned? Professor Fu was so excited that he burst into tears. With trembling hands, he grabbed the phone and confirmed.

It was already early in the morning. Du Zhong answered Professor Fu's call in a daze. He knew that this old man was a pure scholar and understood the other person's mood at the moment. He yawned and said: "Professor Fu, it's true. Why don't you answer the call?" When the dispatch notice arrives, you can watch those babies "go home" with your own eyes.

After receiving further confirmation from Eucommia ulmoides, Professor Fu directly covered his face and started to cry. As a historical archaeologist, the loss of many treasures overseas has left a scar in the hearts of countless people, and Professor Fu is no exception. He had been looking forward to it for countless days and nights, and now that he was expected to witness this moment in his lifetime, the bitter tears in his heart were naturally beyond words.

Hearing Professor Fu's sobs on the phone, Eucommia lucidum woke up, sighed, and comforted softly: Mr. Fu, this is something to be happy about. I believe that one day, those treasures that have wandered outside will be returned to our own hands. .

Professor Fu gave a heavy hum, wiped his face and said: Yes, yes... I'm happy, I'm happy, Xiao Du, thank you, on behalf of thousands of scholars, thank you... ·····

Huh...putting down the phone, Eucommia let out a long breath. Professor Fu's excited whimpering echoed in his ears. He could understand Professor Fu's mood, and he himself was extremely excited after receiving the exact news. Putting down his mobile phone and feeling completely sleepless, he walked to the window, hugging his shoulders and looking out at the endless darkness, the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. Now all this is what he thinks is meaningful, to take back the treasures that belong to his country, to get rid of the evil hands that threaten his people, so that those forces that do not take the Eastern people in their eyes will no longer dare to attack them unscrupulously. Threats, these are the most meaningful things...

That night, not only Eucommia was filled with emotion, but all the scholars who had received the dispatch notice were insomnia. I don’t know how many people were holding phones similar to Professor Fu’s, kneeling on the floor, bed, bathroom, sofa, study room, etc. at home. He cried like a child. After everyone cried loudly, they all grabbed the phone excitedly and called their relatives and friends like crazy to tell them about this grand event...

Early the next morning, when Eucommia ulmoides was still sleeping, he suddenly felt a big hand covering his mouth and nose. He opened his eyes suddenly, but what he saw was a big smiling face, and Eucommia immediately turned over. Roll your eyes. Hu Guohua chuckled, let go of his hand, and joked: What time is it, you can't afford it.

Eucommia ulmoides scratched her head, yawned, sat up and complained: "I'll spare my dreams, second brother, you're not honest."

Hu Guohua sat down on the sofa in Eucommia's room, grinned, raised his thumb and said: I heard that you emptied the British Museum? Bravo.

Eucommia ulmoides got out of bed, drank some water and said with a smile: Hey, you also know about this?

Hu Guohua held a cigarette in his mouth and raised his eyebrows and said: I don't care, you must take me with you when you go to England. I have to witness this grand occasion with my own eyes.

Du Zhong tilted his head and looked at Hu Guohua, smiled and joked: What? Are you willing to leave your diamond pit behind?

Hu Guohua shook his big head and said: I don’t want to give it up, but I don’t want to miss this event even more. It’s so exciting.

Eucommia ulmoides said while changing her clothes: OK, then you should get ready. There should be news soon. Then we two brothers will go move the baby together...
