Chapter 5 Going to Hong Kong Island
The big white coat was whispering, Xue Xiang was not annoyed, Vice President Wang was unhappy for the first time: "What is this? The family members asked for a question, just answer it..."
It seems that the big white coat is just eating this set, and immediately clears his mind: "The patient is just prone to sleepiness and poor breathing. If you really want to go far, just wear an oxygen bottle and don't forget to give nutritional solution, but this may have to be operated by professionals."
At this moment, when he heard that Dabao seemed to be saved, Liu Ying'er stopped sobbing and had strength. When he heard that it was just an infusion and a ventilator, he immediately felt relieved. This was completely his own profession. He was about to nod, but someone snatched the clinker first.
"Okay, let me do this infusion and cover change. Our hospital did not take good care of Comrade Dabao. I, as the director, feel guilty. I can only make up for it. Please don't refuse, comrades, family members."
The person who spoke was Vice President Wang. The old and young man had never had the chance to get close to Xue Xiang. This time he finally got the opportunity, so he naturally didn't want to let it go. Moreover, when he heard others' tone, going abroad was as simple as going home. He just took this opportunity to go out and eat foreign food. I believe that Comrade Xue Xiang's boldness just now would not be reluctant to spend money just because he was too much.
The Liu family couldn't resist Vice President Wang, who was so loyal to him, and he really took over the work. Xue Xiang was too lazy to care about the details and asked which country in the white coat to do the surgery was first-class. However, as soon as he finished asking, he regretted it. He remembered that he was blocking the process at this moment and asked the doctor about foreign affairs. It would be better to ask Yu Blind.
Sure enough, the big white coat turned embarrassed and couldn't say what was wrong. This time, Vice President Wang didn't shout. He was worried that Xue Xiang would ask him. He was afraid that he would not be able to answer, so he showed his misfortune.
At this moment, Xue Xiang has made a decision. No matter where the country he goes to treat his illness, Hong Kong Island is a must-pass for travel. Therefore, the first stop for going abroad is set on Hong Kong Island. As for whether to change the route, it depends on the treatment situation on Hong Kong Island.
At this moment, Xue Xiang made a charter and decided to go straight to Lingnan early tomorrow morning and then transfer from Lingnan to Hong Kong Island. So he told Liu Ying'er and the passionate Dean Wang to prepare for travel. As for Liu Mama, the old and young, just wait for news at home.
After settled the hospital, Xue Xiang comforted Liu Ying'er for a while, then turned out and went straight to Hongying's division headquarters. Because Qin and Tang made contributions last time, Hong Ying has been transferred to protect the capital. Xue Xiang thought that it was the most convenient for him to send cars in Lingnan. After all, Dabao had to carry a mobile bed, and ordinary cars were not enough.
When Xue Xiang asked for a car, Hong Ying naturally had no idea. He arranged a military card for now, saying that Xue Xiang would go home and wait, and tomorrow morning, the car would go directly to the door to pick up people. Tonight, we would modify the back tow box, add some sofas, coffee tables, etc., so that we could make a rest.
Hong Ying made the arrangements properly, so Xue Xiang naturally had nothing to worry about. After sitting for a while, he said goodbye and went home. When he got home, it was already 4:30 in the afternoon and there was no one in the family. Xue Xiang went straight to the room, making a black bag, and began to count his own assets for the first time.
He has always been a great official Xue, who has a lot of money and spent countless money. Now he has to worry about money. In the past, he claimed that he had money and no land to spend money. But now he is going abroad, I am afraid that the two money in his pocket will no longer be called money.
Sure enough, after careful counting, there was only less than 12,000 yuan left. To be honest, Xue Xiang had obtained a lot of money, and the monthly salary of the special hero was also taken to his home as usual. Since he bought antiques, plus the Mountain God Palm that had been troubling in Kaoshantun, the huge New Year's money in a few years was probably worth 40,000 yuan. What kind of figure should this be in the 1970s? At this moment, the RMB was the most valuable time in history. In 1975, the RMB was nearly 1 to 1:50 to the US dollar.
But Xue Xiang has never used money as a matter of business. He chose the best and chose the most expensive ones, either food, clothing or gifts. After a few twists and turns, only these ten thousand yuan left. This time he went to Hong Kong Island and brought these ten thousand yuan with him. How could he look so cold? Although one Hong Kong dollar is almost ten yuan at this moment, and this ten thousand yuan can be exchanged for more than ten thousand yuan, it is far from enough to perform surgery on Dabao, plus a few people eating, drinking and housing.
Xue Xiang was in trouble and smoked one by one, but he didn't expect a good idea. The only way to get cash and have a lot of cash for him is Kaoshantun. But now how popular Kaoshantun is now has long become a demonstration base for the people's commune in Jianghan Province and even the whole country. The current secretary of the Kaoshantun Brigade was directly assigned by the province, and was a deputy department-level cadre of Mingding. Although Han Donglin was still the captain of the brigade, Li Yongjun and Xiaosun were still members of the squad (Tieyong was finally considered to have been a meritorious person because of stealing food, and his merits and demerits were compared, and he became an old surname), but it was not the only one who was Xue's man, and no one was concerned about the market even if he burned the money.
The idea of borrowing money from Kaoshantun was strangled to death. After thinking about it, Xue Xiang leaned his head on the pillow, handed over the water cup on the head of the bed and took a sip. As soon as he finished drinking it, he was about to put the water cup back. Suddenly, his eyes were stunned and fixed on the water cup. It turned out that there was a water cup in his hand, which was clearly a purple clay pot.
Now, Xue Xiang had an idea in his mind.
Xue Xiang's idea was naturally on the pile of antiques at home. Antiques are completely ragged in the mainland, but on Hong Kong Island, they were good things. One or two items were just exchanged for money to treat Dabao. Of course, Xue Xiang was reluctant to let this purple clay teapot. Not to mention that the pot's appreciation ability is amazing, just using him to make tea and drink water every day, I have become accustomed to it.
He did it right away. Xue Xiang turned over and got out of bed, pulled out all the treasures hidden under the bed and the cabinet. He thought about it and glanced around. Xue Xiang aimed at the "Han Xizai Night Banquet Picture", one of the top ten famous paintings in China and one of the four major treasures among his many antiques.
As for why Xue Xiang was just right to challenge the "Han Xizai Night Banquet Picture"?
The cost of going to Hong Kong Island is bound to be high. Although he has many good things to stay by his side, the word "good" is limited to his own preferences, such as the knight's kiln sword, the puppet manuscript of the kiln, the Tang sword, etc. In fact, the real money-worth is the rosewood case, the wood kiln porcelain, the manuscript of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and the four treasures "Han Xizai Night Banquet Picture".
This time, it was a long trip. The rosewood strips were huge in size and inconvenient to transport, so it was obviously inappropriate to carry it. Chai kiln porcelain is actually the king of all porcelains, and it may be the only one that exists in the Chinese nation. In addition, Xue Xiang had a preference for porcelain in his previous life and was reluctant to let it go. The manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions" almost exceeded the value that money can measure. Once it was taken out, it would be a sensation in the world. If you couldn't get a traitor's hat, you would have to fly over. Xue Xiang never dared to make an idea about it.
In the end, the only thing that could be sold was the silk "Han Xizai Night Banquet Picture". First, I brought a scroll to travel far away. Second, although this painting was good, Xue Xiang would not appreciate it. He put it at home and was covered with dust. He asked him to donate it free of charge, and asked himself to not have enough ideological awareness, so he was just used for emergency response.
After Xue Xiang stuffed a lot of objects back, he unwrapped the "Han Xizai Night Banquet Picture". Although he didn't like it, it was a treasure of the Chinese nation after all. The old professor stayed for his own efforts and prepared to donate it to the museum. At this moment, he was going to be sold for money by himself. He felt a little uncomfortable. If he was not strong, he would not be strong. If he was not strong, he would not be strong. At most, he could find a good home for him and someone who really loved painting and knew how to draw. Hong Kong people are also Republicans, and they are not considered treasures after all.
If this person is open-minded, he can always find countless reasons to help him. So Xue Xianggang found a reason for himself to sell it, and began to consider how much it would be appropriate to sell this national treasure in the world. After thinking about it, he was confused again.
One reason is that Xue Xiang is almost completely ignorant of the antiques on Hong Kong Island at this time. The second reason is that when the actual negotiations are made, he cannot tell the characteristics and advantages of this painting. He can't always say that it is a national treasure and one of the top ten famous paintings in China. If this is true, he will definitely be regarded as a kid and slaughtered. As the saying goes, a seller of goods, but you, a seller, have to be an expert first. Otherwise, how can you praise your own objects and sell them at a high price?
"Expert, experts, there are people." Xue Xiang remembered the lame old man who was guarding the Hualian Wooden Factory. This guy has his own ancestral skills. When selling paintings, he will act as an expert to help raise the price.
As soon as he thought of this, Xue Xiang rang out the phone number of Ma Liang, the director of Hualian Woodworks Factory, without saying a word, and ended the call. The reason why Xue Xiang did not directly look for Ma Liang directly, but called Ma Liang was that he knew that Ma Liang had a tough temper. If he directly told him to go abroad, he would definitely scare the guy who had been criticized and fought for half a lifetime. Therefore, he could only ask Ma Liang to cover up and say that he was sending the lame elder to go on a business trip. When the ship left the post, he would not be afraid that the lame elder would jump into the sea. Although this idea was a bit sinister, it was a helpless move.
The biggest problem of going to Hong Kong was solved. Xue Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and stopped lying on the bed. He raised his hand to see the time. It was already half past five, so he got up and cooked to cook dinner. After dinner, the whole family gathered in front of the TV to watch "Chasing".
To say that the ongoing "Chasing" is the first foreign film introduced in the history of the Republic - produced by the island country. Although the Chinese still have no good feelings for the island country at this time, the influence of this film at that time can be described as a sweep.
It is no exaggeration to say that the starring actor Ken Takakura in the film became synonymous with "male man" in the 1970s and 1980s, and also made countless men in the Republic "harm their self-esteem". Even in the later generations of the 21st century, Ken Takakura is still the eternal idol in the hearts of countless girls who were born in the past and the apron aunts. (To be continued)
