Tang Songyuan frowned slightly and said:
"Buying a house in Shanghai?"
“Isn’t it true that everyone on the Internet is talking bad about the real estate industry?”
Li Qingying raised her eyes to look at him and said, "That's what I said, but look at how strong the housing prices in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are, especially the high-end housing."
"Anyway, you have a lot of spare money now, and you can definitely buy some fixed assets."
"And I think you have recently intentionally adjusted your focus to the sea, and the Magic City is really a more suitable place to stay."
It has convenient transportation, developed commerce and excellent ports.
Magic City is indeed a more suitable place.
After thinking about it, Tang Songyuan nodded and said, "That's really good. I'll look for it online later to see if there are any suitable houses for sale."
Just as he was talking, Lu Qingliu came over with two more energetic old men.
One of them, whom Tang, Song and Yuan met once, was Zuo Mingyuan, the former director of the Imperial Palace Museum.
It was also in the Magic City before that when the Nine Dragon Sword was handed over, it was Zuo Mingyuan who was in charge of appraising it.
Another person named Wang Tianrui is also a very famous antique appraisal expert, mainly an expert in artifacts, especially bronzes.
Lu Qingliu stood half in front of the two old men, pointed at Tang Songyuan and introduced: "Teacher Zuo, Teacher Wang, this is Mr. Tang, Song, Yuan and Tang who found the wrong gold and silver cloud pattern rhinoceros."
Zuo Mingyuan laughed and said: "No introduction is needed. Although my old man's hair is white, his memory is not bad."
"If I remember correctly, it was you and him who recovered the Nine-Dragon Sword last time..."
Lu Qingliu smiled slightly and said: "That's right. The gold and silver cloud pattern rhinoceros this time was brought back by Mr. Tang from the Western Kingdom."
"And the "Yongle Dadian" was brought back from France."
"What a terrifying future life..."
Zuo Mingyuan praised it and said with emotion: "In that era, we lost too many national treasures."
"Thanks to people with lofty ideals like Mr. Tang, these treasures that carry our national culture can one day return to their homeland."
Tang Songyuan said quickly: "I don't dare to take it seriously. I just did what I could."
Then Lu Qingliu took several people to a well-lit room, where the rhinoceros statue with gold and silver cloud patterns and the "Yongle Dadian" volume were moved here.
Zuo Mingyuan couldn't move his eyes away the moment he opened the door. He stared at the rhinoceros with gold and silver cloud patterns and murmured:
"Exactly the same, really exactly the same..."
He took a few steps forward excitedly, and gently touched the rhinoceros with his slightly trembling hands, feeling the staggered gold and silver patterns on it.
Wang Tianrui was relatively calm, but his eyes were more focused.
He observed every detail of the rhinoceros statue very carefully, and sometimes stretched out his fingers to gently tap the surface of the rhinoceros statue to listen to the soft sound emitted by the knocking.
After a long time, the two old men looked at each other and said in unison as if they had a tacit understanding:
"It's really true!"
There was a bit of surprise and a bit of disbelief in his tone.
They were pleasantly surprised because this rhinoceros statue with gold and silver cloud patterns was indeed real. What was incredible was that they originally thought it was just one thing, hidden in the National Museum.
But I didn't expect to know now that these rhinoceros were actually a pair.
Maybe there is still a male and a female...
"It's so perfect..." Zuo Mingyuan clucked his tongue and praised: "The shape is unique and lifelike."
"In addition, the lines are smooth, the patterns are gorgeous, and the art is extremely expressive. It is hard to imagine that this is a craft made more than 2,000 years ago."
Wang Tianrui also laughed and echoed: "Yes, the colors of gold, silver and bronze are intertwined with light, and the expression and temperament are blended. It is a perfect work of art."
After appreciating the gold and silver rhinoceros with cloud patterns, Wang Tianrui picked up the "Yongle Dadian" again.
After questioning, he opened the plastic vacuum package and carefully examined the ancient book.
From the paper materials to the content, text, pictures, etc., everything is professionally appraised in detail.
"This is the real thing too!"
After a long time, Wang Tianrui said with certainty: "This volume of "Yongle Dadian" is definitely authentic,"
While talking, he also pointed to the cover of the ancient book and said: "This kind of paper is bark paper. The production technology of this kind of bark paper has almost been lost."
"Teacher Zuo, take a whiff. Does it smell like a book?"
Zuo Mingyuan laughed twice and took it.
I turned it over and over again and said with emotion: "It is indeed the most wonderful book in the history. It is dignified and beautiful, with brilliant red ink."
He looked at Tang Songyuan and said, "Brother Tang, thank you for your selfless dedication. Thank you very much!"
Tang Songyuan smiled slightly and said: "Teacher Zuo is so polite. This is what you should do."
"This is a treasure of our Chinese civilization. I am very lucky to have encountered one. Naturally, I cannot let it wander outside anymore..."
"Hahaha...well said!" Wang Tianrui praised: "We must protect the treasures left to us by our ancestors."
After the appreciation, Lu Qingliu called on several colleagues to pack the two national treasures and prepare to send them to the imperial capital for further appraisal and detailed arrangements.
Zuo Mingyuan and Wang Tianrui were ready to say goodbye.
Tang Songyuanze and Li Qingying checked into the hotel with their heavy luggage.
At about ten o'clock the next morning, Tang Songyuan met with a real estate consultant he met on an online APP in the hotel room.
These days, whether you are buying a car, a house or insurance, as long as you expose a little need on the Internet, a lot of people will flock to you.
Tang, Song and Yuan chose one of them that was more pleasing to the eye.
The visitor's name is Ding Ran, he is twenty-five or six years old, he is petite and has a delicate face, which is quite pleasing to the eye.
"Hello, Mr. Tang," Ding Ran said with a professional smile on his face. After a simple greeting and self-introduction,
She asked: "Does Mr. Tang have any requirements for the location, environment and price of the residence?"
Tang Songyuan thought for a while and responded: "First of all, it must be spacious enough, preferably a single-family villa with three floors and a basement."
"Because I need good privacy and security...does your company have any housing that meets my needs?"
Seeing that he was serious about what he said, Ding Ran felt ecstatic in his heart, but the expression on his face remained unchanged with a smile.
She said: "What a coincidence, Mr. Tang, we happen to have a vacant house in Sheshan Ziyuan. Do you think it would be convenient for us to go over and take a look at it now?"
