Siheyuan: Returning to 61 to collect waste

Chapter 337: Unable to Calm Down

Ye Chuan couldn't help but smile: Because there are too few children of the same age in the courtyard, only these two little girls are playing this together.

Seeing Yi Xinxin looking at him expectantly, he took out some White Rabbit candies from his pocket and handed them to her:

"Xinxin, take it and eat it."

Yi Xinxin happily took the candy and thanked Ye Chuan, because even older children from well-off families seldom ate these candies, and could only get a few during festivals or on their birthdays.

"Daddy, I want it too!" Xiaoxue said coquettishly while lying in Ye Chuan's arms.

So Ye Chuan reached into his pocket again and took out more candies to give to Xiaoxue, then put his daughter down.

Considering that Tong Yao was still weak, she did not pick up Xiaoxue immediately. Instead, she gently stroked her head to show her love.

Seeing such a warm scene, Aunt Yi couldn't help but reveal a trace of envy; if only she and her husband had their own flesh and blood back then, how wonderful it would be. Even though she now regards Xinxin as the apple of her eye, after all, she is adopted and not of her own blood.

After everyone returned to their residence, Ye Yongshun, who had taken a day off to accompany his family, was extremely happy to see his precious grandson return. But then everyone encountered a thorny problem: what name should the child be given?

Then, Ye Yongshun began to speak: "Chuan'er, although I have cut off contact with my hometown for many years, I still understand that the word we should use in this generation is 'for'."

Then he asked Ye Chuan: "Do you know which 'for' to use? The kind of 'for' that explains why."

Ye Chuan nodded in response, and secretly began to think about the child's name. Then he made a suggestion, "'Wei' doesn't seem to be appropriate. Why not use the homophonic word 'Wei', which implies that his future life will be pure and innocent? How about calling him 'Ye Weiqing'?"

Seeing the three words "Ye Weiqing", Tong Yao felt relieved; she originally thought that Ye Chuan would give her a solemn name like "Defend the Country".

Although he had some objections to the name, Ye Yongshun agreed after thinking for a moment.

He is a relatively traditional person. Since his son happens to be the one with the same character for "Wei" in his generation name, it would be a nice name to choose one that means "Wei Guo Wei Min". However, his son has already expressed his opinion, so he does not want to say more.

In this way, the eldest son and grandson of the Ye family had a rather elegant name - Ye Weiqing.

Under the careful care of the two elders, Tong Yao began to recuperate after the baby was born. After resting at home for three days, Ye Chuan also returned to work.

As soon as he arrived at the commercial building, Fatty Han came over and said to him, "Brother Ye, Director Yang brought in another batch of confiscated items yesterday. They have been registered and put into storage. Here is the list."

Ye Chuan took the list and looked at it. He found that there were no particularly valuable items in the confiscated items this time. Especially in the column of calligraphy and paintings, there were ten tattered calligraphy and paintings written on it. He couldn't help but smile.

"What do these shabby calligraphy and paintings mean?"

Fatty Han scratched his head and said, "Those calligraphy works are already in tatters. I wanted to get rid of them directly, but I still think I should ask for your opinion first."

Ye Chuan didn't take it to heart, he just nodded and said, "I see, I'll come and see it later."

Including the two days when Tong Yao gave birth, he had not been to work for almost a week, so his desk was piled with many documents that needed to be reviewed and materials waiting to be signed.

After completing all pending tasks, it was already noon.

Ye Chuan stretched his body and walked towards the cafeteria. When his colleagues saw him, they congratulated him on the birth of his baby and were genuinely happy for him.

In fact, he didn't have much feeling about having a son, nor did he have the traditional idea of ​​favoring boys over girls. He even preferred girls to boys, which was somewhat in line with what modern people call "daughter control."

"Director Ye, your sister-in-law has given you a fat grandson. When are you going to treat us to wedding candy?" Han Lifen said with a smile.

"Sure, sure. Sister Lifen, go to the warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative and get some White Rabbit milk candies and Jingcheng crispy candies. Each employee will get half a pound of candies. Come to me for reimbursement after work in the evening."

"Great, I can enjoy a feast again!"

When everyone learned that Ye Chuan would prepare half a pound of sugar for everyone, congratulations were heard everywhere.

After lunch, Ye Chuan suddenly remembered the new confiscated items that Fatty Han mentioned in the morning, and went to Warehouse No. 3 where they were stored.

A new batch of confiscated items were placed in a prominent position in the warehouse. Ye Chuan looked around and did not see any particularly valuable items.

Even so, the "small profit" was also a gain. With a flash of light, he recorded the newly added 50,000 points in his system.

At this time, the points in the system had already exceeded five million, so these 50,000 new points were almost insignificant to him.

As he walked aimlessly to a corner of the warehouse, he noticed a dozen worn scrolls in an aluminum basin. He flipped through one of them and found a calligraphy work. When he saw the signature, he couldn't help but stop his gaze.

He then carefully placed the artifact aside and continued to look at the remaining calligraphy works, opening them one by one.

When Ye Chuan saw those signatures, he felt uneasy.

Ancient Chinese culture is extremely brilliant, and each dynasty has its own characteristics. Tang poetry, Song lyrics, Jin characters and Han articles are all classics that have been passed down through the ages. The most notable cultural heritage is Jin characters. The calligraphy of Jin Dynasty literati has reached the top level in terms of style and shape.

Throughout China's long history, the most famous calligraphy work is Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface", which is hailed as China's number one treasure in the history of calligraphy.

Take the calligraphy of Sima Yan, the founding emperor of the Jin Dynasty, for example. The famous calligrapher Mi Fu spoke highly of him, saying that his calligraphy style was as simple as that of ancient people, and he praised it endlessly. Not only Sima Yan, but also other calligraphers such as Sima Rui, Sima Shao, Sima Pi, Sima Yu, etc. also made remarkable achievements in calligraphy, each with their own unique features, and each of them can be called a master.

Ten of the more than ten scrolls on display are works by these five emperors. Even though these works have been damaged by the wind and rain, their value is immeasurable. For example, the "Anjun Tie" by Sima Rui, the Emperor Yuan of Jin, enjoys a very high reputation, and its artistic collection value is comparable to the "Lanting Xu".

At this moment, Ye Chuan's heart was extremely excited, because he did not expect that the damaged works mentioned by his fat friend Han Pangzi actually contained such precious art treasures. If these things were accidentally lost, he would regret it so much that he would beat his chest and stamp his feet.

When he came into contact with these works, each one provided him with more than 500,000 energy points, especially "An Jun Tie", which contributed more than 300,000 energy points alone.

However, due to the passage of time and frequent changes of ownership, these treasures have indeed suffered some wear and tear and even lack of words. Otherwise, it would bring more than just this amount of energy points.

Ye Chuan thought silently: "Repair the Anjun Tie!"

Soon, the system replied: "Primary repair requires 48 energy points; complete repair only requires 13 energy points."

After hearing the system's prompt, Ye Chuan was very dissatisfied. Such a precious work only brought about 48 energy, but it cost to repair. Not to mention the comprehensive repair plan.

Even though he was extremely distressed, he still decided to use 48 energy points for initial recovery. After all, this work has irreplaceable value from both a cultural and market perspective.

He silently chanted "primary repair" in his mind. The system immediately responded: "Repair successful, energy consumption is 48."

After restoration, "An Jun Tie" has returned to its original appearance - a completely preserved and historical work is presented before us, and even the scroll part has been restored intact.

Ye Chuan held the "An Jun Tie" in his hand and felt very fond of it; the characters inside were neatly arranged as if they were carved or cast, and if seen by a calligraphy expert, he would surely be amazed.

He then repaired the remaining nine works one by one, consuming a total of two million energy points. Adding the cost of repairing the "An Jun Tie" earlier, the total investment was about two and a half million energy points.

Although he originally had ample energy reserves and his balance has dropped to just over three million after completing the restoration work, it is a very worthwhile process for him - any of these restored works, if placed in the art museum, will undoubtedly become the museum's treasured calligraphy collection, and there are almost no comparable works of art that can stand on equal footing with them.

Since crossing over, Ye Chuan has been collecting treasures in bits and pieces. Even if he occasionally finds a large number of treasures, they are usually in the state-owned antique shops in Liulichang. After the wind rose, the treasures he collected at one time were more than the previous few years combined.

Recalling the news he saw in his previous life, he was extremely saddened by the cultural treasures destroyed by natural disasters. Since he was reborn in this period, Ye Chuan decided to do his best to protect these precious old objects, and even imagined that when he had the ability in the future, he could open a museum open to the public for free, so that more people could understand the splendor of Chinese culture.

After spending more than five years here, he has completely integrated into this society and has his own family: a good wife and a pair of lively and lovely children. As for his past life, it has almost become a blur in his mind.

As the winds picked up, so did the number of treasures in his system’s storage space. As more and more new finds filled this virtual warehouse, his faith in his dream of opening a museum, where he planned to display rare treasures, grew stronger.

Time flies like a white horse, seven years have passed quickly, and now it is 1973.

During these years, Ye Chuan acted very cautiously, concentrating on the work of the Second Electronics Factory and the busy commodity business behind it. At the same time, he would regularly collect the points accumulated in the virtual warehouse of the system and select some particularly valuable items to store in. In this regard, thanks to the convenience of his own identity, he could freely explore the storage area of ​​the steel rolling mill, the inventory place of the Second Home Appliance Enterprise, and the storage space of the local **.
