Nowadays, graduate students in major universities almost work for their supervisors. The supervisors take over work from outside and leave it to their own graduate students.
When the results are obtained, the tutors who are more particular will get the lion's share and give some to the students. If the tutors are more sophisticated, they may eat the meat and not even leave a mouthful of the soup for the students.
By saying this, Professor Meng was promising Zhuang Rui that he would be responsible for this project.
Of course, all the research funds applied for were controlled by Zhuang Rui. Professor Meng knew that Zhuang Rui was rich, so he might not be interested in this little money, but he still made his attitude clear.
"Thank you, Teacher Meng..."
After Zhuang Rui heard Professor Meng's words, he quickly agreed. He originally thought that the old man would become patriotic and directly ask him to hand it over to the country. Now it is just borrowed for research and is still under his control. What else does Zhuang Rui have to be dissatisfied with?
Yes.
Moreover, Zhuang Rui also knew that his identity as a graduate student at Peking University was already a certainty. With Professor Meng, the interview would be nothing more than a formality.
"You don't need to thank me. If you can research something and come up with it, teacher, I'd like to thank you. By the way, I want to take some photos. The discovery of this sword is of great historical value. I'm afraid you will have to bring it to a party in a while.
seminar……"
Professor Meng waved his hand, took out a digital camera from his desk, and took pictures of the lightsaber from all angles.
"Okay, teacher, just let me know when the time comes..."
Zhuang Rui nodded readily. He also knew that this "fixed light sword", as a legendary sword, must be of great historical significance. However, Zhuang Rui believed that as long as he was not willing, no one could take the fixed light sword away.
, unless the old man in the family is being unreasonable.
"Okay, take your things back and keep them properly. Don't apply rust-removing oil or other chemicals. It's best to wipe them frequently..."
Professor Meng also knew a thing or two about the maintenance of bronzes. After taking pictures of the lightsaber from various angles, he told Zhuang Rui a few words. He was afraid that Zhuang Rui would not pay attention to maintenance and would not damage this famous sword.
.
"This kid, I really don't know if he's just lucky or if he has some tricks?"
After seeing off Zhuang Rui and others, Professor Meng returned to the office and shook his head. However, Professor Meng was very satisfied to see a famous sword that could rewrite the history of bronzes today.
"Brother Zhuang, it's rare for me to come back. I'm going to see the teacher later. Let's say goodbye here..."
After leaving Professor Meng's office building, Huangfu Yun said to Zhuang Rui, but his eyes were still fixed on the "fixed light sword" in Peng Fei's hand.
As a professional who collects swords and antiques, Huangfu Yun is feeling torn in his heart right now, but he has no choice but to have limited financial resources. Even if Zhuang Rui agrees to sell it, he doesn't have that much money to buy it.
"Okay, brother Huangfu, let's keep in touch. If you see any good things left by our ancestors abroad in the future, give me a call..."
Zhuang Rui has long wanted to go abroad to hunt for treasures, but he is not familiar with major foreign auction houses. Now that he has met Huangfu Yun, he will be able to have more guides when he goes out in the future.
Huangfu Yun didn't know that Zhuang Rui still had this idea. He was stunned when he heard this and said: "Brother, if you have this intention, there will be a special auction of Chinese antiques in London, England next month. If you are interested, you can go
Look, I will definitely be there when the time comes..."
"next month?"
Zhuang Rui didn't know if anything would happen next month. There were still more than 20 days left, so he immediately said: "Brother Huangfu, if nothing happens next month, I will go and have a look. I will trouble you again then..."
"Sure, let's keep in touch by phone..."
Huangfu Yun reluctantly stared at the brocade box in Peng Fei's hand, waved goodbye to Zhuang Rui.
"Brother Zhuang, how much is this sword worth?"
Peng Fei just saw the look in Huangfu Yun's eyes and wanted to snatch it away. After sitting in the car, he asked Zhuang Rui.
In Peng Fei's view, this sword is just a little sharper. It is undoubtedly a priceless treasure in the era of cold weapons. However, in modern society where guns and cannons are rampant, cold weapons are no longer very useful. There is an old saying: Whatever you do
No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you can still be knocked down with one shot.
"you guess……"
Zhuang Rui drove away from the Beijing University campus to see if there was still time. He planned to put the "fixed light sword" back home first, and then go to the old man to get the seal. After all, he was running around with hundreds of millions of items.
Definitely nervous and panicked.
"It's worth at least 1,000 to 8 million, right?"
Peng Fei has been with Zhuang Rui for a while, and he knows that the price of antiques is unpredictable. The rarer they are, the higher you can guess, so Peng Fei gave what he thought was a sky-high price.
"Haha, Qian'er 8 million? You can't even buy a sword tip..."
Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard this. He went back to find Mr. Qian of the Kyoto auction to ask for the antique auction information in recent years to make up for it. If Huangfu Yun hadn't told him the price of this sword, Zhuang Rui would have
The valuation is just a little higher than what Peng Fei just said.
"The person named Huangfu Yun just now valued it at about 200 million. Now that we know it has been passed down, I'm afraid the price is even higher..."
Zhuang Rui also didn't expect that his luck would be so good today. It seemed like he would go to Panjiayuan for a walk if he had nothing to do.
"Two...two hundred million? How can it be so expensive?"
Peng Fei held the sword in his hand and trembled violently, almost throwing the sword away.
"Nonsense, don't even think about it. Of those legendary swords, this is the only one that has been unearthed. It's estimated that 200 million is less..."
After hearing what Zhuang Rui said, Peng Fei simply put the "fixed light sword" on Zhuang Rui's lap and said, "Brother Zhuang, this thing is too expensive. Why does it feel so heavy when I hold it?"
"Okay, brat, stop being weird. I'm carrying hundreds of millions of gold and I don't see you calling Shen..."
Zhuang Rui laughed and scolded Peng Fei, and the two of them returned to the courtyard while talking.
Qin Xuanbing's jewelry design studio is in the wing room from Zhuang Rui's backyard into the basement. Seeing Zhuang Rui come in, Qin Xuanbing couldn't help but asked strangely: "Husband, didn't you go to Uncle Gu's place? Why are you back now?
Already?"
"Hey, honey, I found a unique treasure in Panjiayuan today. I will put it back home first and then go to the old man's place right away..."
Zhuang Rui hugged Qin Xuanbing and kissed her. If it weren't for the fact that it was broad daylight and he had something to do later, Zhuang Rui would have wanted to do something like that to vent his excitement.
"Damn it, go quickly, don't bother me..."
Qin Xuanbing saw Zhuang Rui running out of the house like a child, with a smile on her face. She enjoyed this life very much. She had a husband who loved her, a mother-in-law who was easy to get along with, and she lived in this big house.
, the life is very comfortable and quiet, which is in line with Qin Xuanbing's character.
"Brother Yun, why aren't you busy today?"
Entering the old man's small courtyard, Zhuang Rui saw Gu Yun playing Go with the old man in the yard, and quickly went over to say hello.
"Didn't this brat know you were coming? Otherwise, could he play chess with my old man?"
Before Gu Yun could say anything, the old man snorted coldly, waved his hand, disrupted the chessboard, and said, "Zhuang Rui, when you've finished talking, come into the room..."
"Hey, Dad, you are so shameless. You are going to lose now, why are you always running away?"
Gu Yun's words let Zhuang Rui know why the old man was in a bad mood and that he would lose to his son in the chess game.
Zhuang Rui looked around, and then said: "Brother Gu, what do you want from me? Let's agree first, that thing is really gone, so don't say anything like that..."
During this time, I spend time with my wife every day, and both of them are young and energetic, so everything happens almost every day. With Zhuang Rui's ability to restore spiritual energy, it's a bit too much for him. Now he is eagerly anticipating the spring to start tomorrow.
As for the medicinal wine.
Of course, this does not mean that Zhuang Rui will not be able to do it, but it is a psychological effect, just like you take an ordinary vitamin and give it to a person who has a cold, telling him that this is a special medicine.
People, colds are obviously better. This is the effect of psychology, which has been proven by clinical trials.
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Gu Yun showed a dumbfounded look on his face and said: "You kid, who told you that? Brother, I am strong. If you don't believe me, ask your sister-in-law?"
"strong?"
Zhuang Rui curled his lips in disdain. He didn't know who was following him to ask for the tiger's whip. He might not be strong, but he was really thick-skinned.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, my brother needs your help..."
Gu Yun was afraid that the old man would know that he asked Zhuang Rui for a tiger whip, so he quickly changed the subject and then asked: "Is your fourth brother developing the land in Dongcheng?"
Zhuang Rui nodded and said: "If this is the case, please tell me directly if you have anything to do with Brother Gu. We brothers should not beat around the bush..."
"Okay, let me tell you the truth. Brother, you also know that my job is more in winter and less in spring and summer. See if you can work at Ouyang Jun's place to take over some projects. By the way, I am
Those who are qualified are not roadside guerrillas..."
The restoration of ancient buildings is indeed seasonal. Generally, there is more work in autumn and winter. In spring and summer, if Gu Yun cannot get other work, he will have to spend money to support a large group of people.
"Hey, you and your fourth brother have agreed on this matter. It's not like we don't know each other..." Zhuang Rui thought it was a big deal, and it was a project.
Gu Yun said with a smile: "Isn't it true that we two brothers are close? You think it will be more useful than me..."
"Okay, then I'll call Fourth Brother later. Brother Gu, you can go find him by yourself then..."
Zhuang Rui nodded and agreed. The quality of Gu Yun's work was absolutely unparalleled, and he was living there now.
