Shi Lei didn't say anything, but Liu Zhen stood up. She made a little unhappy expression and bowed slightly to Miyamoto Kinichi.
"Miyamoto San, you can talk about the next thing alone, I will say goodbye first."
Miyamoto Kyōi was stunned, then stood up and said, "What does Liu Zhenjun mean?"
"Mr. Shi will tell you later. Alas... Shino... If you hadn't saved my daughter's life, how could I bring you here? Say goodbye!"
Miyamoto Kinichi was very strange. In fact, he had vaguely seen when he met Liu Zhen and Shi Lei. Liu Zhen's attitude towards Shi Lei was not pleasant, which made him wonder.
However, his thoughts were all in the paint cylinder that Shi Lei was carrying, and he didn't care about the relationship between Shi Lei and Liu Zhen, so he ignored the past.
Liu Zhen was leaving, and Shi Lei had no intention of trying to keep him. As the owner, Miyamoto Kyuichi had to give him away.
So, Miyamoto Kyoichi bowed to Shi Lei and said, "Shisang, please wait a moment, I'll give you a gift to Liu Zhenjun."
Shi Lei nodded and said it was okay. Miyamoto Genichi sent Liu Zhen out of the room.
In the corridor, Miyamoto Genichi asked, "What does Liu Zhenjun mean?"
Liu Zhen looked at the room where Shi Lei was staying, and she said, "Mr. Shi would tell Miyamoto Sang, so I won't say much."
Miyamoto Kheng frowned and didn't want to ask, so he had to send Liu Zhen out of his home all the way.
After returning to the house, Miyamoto Genichi changed Shi Lei's new tea, and then asked: "Shisang and Liu Zhenjun..."
Shi Lei smiled and said, "I have an elder who knows Ms. Liu Zhen. I have met her once. But this time I met by chance. I am in Okinawa..." Shi Lei roughly told the story of saving Liu Jiani in Okinawa, and then said, "I didn't expect that Liu Jiani's mother would be Ms. Liu Zhen. I originally came to Japan this time just to go to Osaka and to meet you. I thought it would be not easy to meet you, but I didn't expect such a small episode. I happened to know that Ms. Liu Zhen came to Japan this time to do cultural exchanges with your Osaka Municipal Art Museum, so I asked Ms. Liu Zhen to take me to meet you."
Miyamoto Kinichi frowned slightly and said, "Shisang still didn't explain why Liu Zhenjun was not good at you. She should be grateful if you saved her daughter."
Shi Lei smiled and said, "Because I want to give you this painting."
Miyamoto Genic was stunned. He was so excited that he couldn't help himself. His hands, who were holding the short table, shaking uncontrollably. He said excitedly: "Shisang, don't joke."
Shi Lei still smiled slightly and said calmly: "Mr. Miyamoto is a little calm. Of course, this painting cannot be given to you for free."
Miyamoto Genichi felt a little normal. He was already organizing vocabulary in his heart, wanting to praise Shi Lei, who is not bound by nationality but only wants to give the cultural relics a better destination. When Shi Lei said that he would not give it to him for nothing, he calmed down a lot.
"Oh, what does Shisang want to get from me? Money?"
Shi Lei shook his head and said, "I'm not short of money, and if it's just money, I will definitely choose to let the auction house handle this painting for me."
"What exactly does Shisang want?" Miyamoto Kyuk asked slowly, and he had already known Shi Lei's answer in his heart.
Shi Lei said: "The true form of five stars and twenty-eight constellations."
Miyamoto said it was true, it was indeed the true picture of the five-star and twenty-eight constellations. However, this was obviously a copy, and it was not complete, and it lost the next volume. Why did Shi Lei use such a precious statue of Wang Youjun from Yan Liben to exchange for a work with a far less valuable value?
Shi Lei did not explain anything. Miyamoto Kyuk had no choice but to ask: "Shisang should know that the true form of the five-star and twenty-eight constellations collected in this museum is a copy of Liang Lingzan?"
Shi Lei nodded and said, "Of course I know."
"Since that's the case, why is Shi Sang...? Please forgive me for not understanding."
Shi Lei took a sip of tea. He didn't like matcha, and the astringent taste on the tip of his tongue always seemed too heavy.
"I have my reasons, but this reason is relatively private, and I don't want to explain it to anyone. Ms. Liu Zhen also felt disgusted with my behavior because of this. If it weren't for saving her daughter, she owed me a huge favor, I think she wouldn't have done such a behavior that she knew I wanted to exchange the original but was willing to bring me here."
Miyamoto Kenichi spread his hands and said with a smile: "Although it is a copy, it is also a work of Liang Lingzan. This itself is a national treasure-level cultural relic."
Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "Mr. Miyamoto should not tell me such clichés. The value comparison between the two works is very obvious. I am not stupid enough to think that Liang Lingzan can be compared with Yan Liben. What's more, that's a copy. It's impossible to say that a bowl of food that has been passed down from the Tang Dynasty can be compared with Tang Sancai, right?"
Miyamoto Genichi's face looked a little embarrassed. He smiled and said, "Collection is an elegant thing. If you just compare it by price, you will lose the worst."
"In terms of cultural value, the image of Wang Youjun is also far away from the true form of the five-star and twenty-eight constellations. Mr. Miyamoto, I am really sincere, this is my wish. I know that Mr. Miyamoto is not short of money, otherwise, I would rather use money to buy the true form of the five-star and twenty-eight constellations you have collected. To be honest, I have been thinking about this for a long time and I can't find a suitable entry point until I get this image of Wang Youjun. I think Mr. Miyamoto should be interested in this painting."
Miyamoto Genichi had all kinds of doubts. It was like buying vegetables in a vegetable market. The vegetable vendor offered to pay two yuan per pound, but the buyers paid five yuan per pound. This made people doubt that there was something else in this painting.
"Mr. Miyamoto's choice is for Mr. Miyamoto. If you think there is something else in between, or if you think the real figure of the five-star and twenty-eight constellations is more valuable than that of Wang Youjun, then I'm just disturbing you today." Having said that, Shi Lei did not mean to get up. After all, the other party was a seventy-year-old man, and there was no need to play the trick of trying to get in front of him. Shi Lei just said it very clearly.
Miyamoto Genichi hesitated for a while and finally said, "Ishisang, you should know that this five-star and twenty-eight constellations is a cultural relic that is regarded as a national treasure in Japan."
"Isn't it like Wang Youjun?"
Miyamoto Gen nodded and said, "The statue of Wang Youjun that Shisan gave is naturally worthy of being at the national treasure level. But please be honest, this painting was originally from Japan, right? Mr. Shi went to Okinawa because of this painting?"
Shi Lei shrugged and smiled, "Mr. Miyamoto can guess at will."
"Shisang should be clear that if such a treasure is so important, our country will not let it leave easily without reasonable procedures for auction. In other words, Shisang got this painting, but also knew that he was unable to take it out of Japan. Therefore, Shisang came up with such a method in exchange for the true form of the five-star and twenty-eight constellations of my place. In this way, the news will definitely be reported. Mr. Shi took the true form of the five-star and twenty-eight constellations, and then there were reasonable procedures to take it out of Japan's border."
Shi Lei laughed and said, "Mr. Miyamoto is really logical, and it is not easy to be so old."
A little smug look on Miyamoto's face.
Chapter completed!
