In the early morning at the foot of the Changbai Mountain in the northeast, the wind felt very cool and comfortable on his body. Li Mo held a large stainless steel basin and filled it with a bowl of noodles. A few large slices of spicy beef and two candied poached eggs were cut onto the noodles, and then a spoonful of the special spicy sauce was added.
He squatted on the roadside with a basin, eating noodles while watching the miscellaneous fish swimming in the creek next to the road. More than 20 meters away across the creek is the temporary camp where the troops are stationed. The soldiers have already gone out for exercises early in the morning. Helicopters are parked on the flat land, and box trucks are waiting for the gold to be transported out of the mountain.
"Mr. Li, the spicy beef cooked with the secret recipe you gave us is so delicious. The aroma of the pork head meat that has not yet been taken out of the pot is wafting far away, and I take a breath and my mouth is filled with saliva."
"Of course, I grew up eating them. Uncle Bangzi, if your children feel that there is no future in working for others, you might as well let them go to Kyoto. I invested in a catering company there. I am not bragging to you. , the business is full every day. Especially the stewed vegetables, the business is booming. You let them learn how to make it and how to operate it. When they have finished their studies, I will invest and open several chain stores in your Northeast. By then How about if your son or daughter does a good job and becomes the person in charge here?"
"Oh, thank you so much, Mr. Li. My son had a heart-to-heart talk with us yesterday and talked about how he could do big things with Mr. Li in the future. Okay, now I will go and tell him to resign from his previous company, and then Go to Kyoto and learn from your capable men."
"Go ahead."
Uncle Bangzi ran away happily. The brown bear also came over with a small stainless steel basin and squatted next to Li Mo. He turned to look at Uncle Bangzi's back and said, "Boss, what happened to him to be so happy?"
"Give his children a chance and see if they can be trained."
The brown bear understood what he meant, and the boss was returning the favor. If Uncle Bangzi's children can really seize this opportunity, then there will definitely be no problem with their wealth in this life.
"Brown Bear, what have you dug up with Uncle Wu and the others these days?"
The brown bear chewed a piece of spicy beef and said: "There are so many geniuses and treasures on the Yama Mountain. We found eight more ginsengs from the century-old wild ginseng. I can't tell the difference between the other great medicines. Anyway, Uncle Wu and the others have faces on their faces." His smile never breaks. Boss, the valuable treasures in the cave have been sorted out. Do you still need to personally participate in the other ordinary antiques? "
"I won't participate anymore. Let other people show their faces. This time, my goal has been achieved. I can just watch from the sidelines for the rest of the time." Li Mo mixed the noodles with spicy sauce and took a bite. "The spicy sauce is delicious." They are all dug out of the mountains, and the hot sauce is full of flavor."
"Boss, Mr. Chen called me this morning and asked if she is planning to build a new museum?"
"Why didn't you contact me directly?"
"She said you were extremely busy every day, so she called me to ask about the situation because she was afraid you were still sleeping."
"This time we may have to build one museum in Jinling and one in Yanjiao at the same time. But is there a better location in Yanjiao for us to build? I heard before that if we continue to build it, Yanjiao and Kyoto will be connected into a large economic zone. Now, do you want to upgrade Yanjiao’s administration again?”
"Well, there is this news. But we are not people in the system, and we can't understand the details inside. When you return to Kyoto, you can ask the first person in charge of Yanjiao for details. He is your distant cousin. If Yanjiao's administration has been upgraded again, and he should be the happiest."
"I haven't seen him since my accident on Ao Island, and we don't have much interaction with him. I guess he wants to avoid suspicion. Let's eat quickly. Don't follow them around the mountains today. Come with me. Move your muscles.”
"Okay, I'm very bored following them."
The so-called moving muscles and bones naturally means moving the gold manually with the large troops into the mountains. Considering that the roads are difficult to walk over mountains and ridges, each soldier carries a weight of forty or fifty kilograms, and it takes six or seven hours to get in and out.
But Li Mo was different. He directly carried eighty kilograms of weight and seemed very relaxed. His body bones did not appear to be very strong and sturdy, so other soldiers felt embarrassed when they saw the weight he carried. A few of them still wanted to show off their strength, but in the end they couldn't hold on after climbing a mountain.
And Li Mo, in full view of everyone, followed the large army easily while chatting and laughing with everyone. There are many soldiers among the people he comes into contact with. He is a member of the Central Police Bureau and is considered half a soldier, so he can have fun chatting with them.
After carrying it for five days, Li Mo was finally friendly and declined his request to move with the team on the sixth day.
"Associate Professor Li, I also admire you. I heard that the soldiers who go into the mountains to carry gold change their clothes every two days to prevent them from hurting their legs and feet. You are good, you actually persisted for five days in a row. I guess those soldiers are too embarrassed to follow You walk together."
After dinner at the hotel, Director Fu said jokingly.
Curator Shi also nodded with great approval and continued: "I'm not afraid that you have no ability, but I'm afraid that you will be compared. We are about to retire, and we have been successful in this life. But after getting to know you, we realized that our lives have been in vain. It’s alive. The Kyoto Museum has a collection of 200,000 to 300,000 pieces, but the ones that are really important are mainly bronzes. Although there are many outstanding antiques among other antiques, they seem very messy.”
"Unlike those museums opened by Associate Professor Li, each one has a theme. In the past, many foreign tourists came to our Kyoto Museum for no reason. In recent years, the number of foreign tourists has dropped by at least 40%. It is estimated that they all went to Yanjiao. Went over there.”
While drinking seaweed and egg soup, Li Mo said with a smile: "The legs are on someone else's body, and there's nothing I can do about it. But one thing is different, the national museums in Kyoto rely on their heritage and reputation, and I opened The museum is operated by modern enterprises. In today's era of overwhelming information, as long as we take the initiative, it is easy to expand the customer base. Just like when we buy something, the first thing we consider is the brand, and then we consider whether the price is acceptable. .”
Director Shi and Director Fu agree with these words. They are members of the system and seek stability.
"Associate Professor Li, except for the gold that has not been removed from the treasure cave, the other antiques have been sorted out. You promised me before. Tell me the truth today. I can return to Jinling tomorrow and the day after tomorrow so that I can talk to those People have an explanation.”
Li Mo quickly put down the bowl, wiped his mouth with a tissue and said: "There are a total of 157 pieces of precious treasures born this time, 958 pieces of other antiques, and then some 3340 pieces of jewelry and jades of inferior quality. Eight pieces. There is no problem in opening a larger museum with this amount. Director Fu, that’s what I’m thinking about. Now the island country is in contact and negotiating with Chinese officials. If they are willing to exchange, I will be more ruthless. Give them a bite. I don’t know how many national treasures will come back by then, enough for us to open two museums.”
"What if the island country is unwilling?"
Li Mo said with a trace of sarcasm on his lips: "They are competing among multiple parties. In order to gain more public opinion for their party, they have to agree even if they don't agree this time, and they will bleed even if they don't bleed. Besides, the whole world is talking about this matter." , sometimes the war of words can really kill people."
