Chapter six hundred and eighty-three - six hundred and eighty-four
Chapter 683-684 Double Happiness
"Zhuang...Brother Zhuang, I...I seem to have done something wrong..."
As soon as Zhuang Rui returned to the courtyard from the real estate company, he received a call from the monkey. He didn't care to play with the white lion that jumped on him. Zhuang Rui asked: "What's going on? Didn't you lend the money to that person?"
"No...no, Brother Zhuang, you said you only lent 1,000 yuan, but I seemed to have lent him 2,000 yuan..."
Monkey slept in the hotel for more than three hours, and he just woke up. When he touched his trouser pocket, he saw that there was no penny left. He still remembered in a daze that he seemed to have given all the money to Ren.
If Daniel hadn't still carried the 10,000 yuan given to him by Zhuang Rui, Monkey wouldn't be able to leave the restaurant today. After paying the bill, Monkey found an ATM and withdrew 2,000 yuan to Daniel, and then transferred
Got a call from Zhuang Rui.
"Just 2000, monkey. You can take the money from the store and tell Lao Zhao. By the way, read more books during this period. When the museum opens, I may transfer you to work..."
When Zhuang Rui heard that Monkey gave Yu Zhenping 2,000 yuan, he didn't pay much attention to it. These days, how can you eat, drink, have sex, and sleep without spending money? No matter how frugal you are, 2,000 yuan won't be enough to spend your time.
Then again, the police have been keeping an eye on Yu Laoba, and they might chase him directly to his lair without having to deal with him twice.
Hearing that Zhuang Rui did not blame himself, Hou Hou felt relieved and said: "I understand, Brother Zhuang, don't worry, we are just a brick of the revolution, we can move it wherever needed..."
"You brat, are your bricks from a pit?"
Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard this, teased Monkey, and hung up the phone.
Although the monkey's role has not yet been highlighted, Daxiong has really helped a lot in "Xuanruizhai". Now even if Zhao Hanxuan leaves, the business of the Four Treasures of the Study can continue.
Zhuang Rui and the white lion were playing around and walked into the middle courtyard. He saw his mother pruning the flower garden, and Zhang Ma and Li's sister-in-law were picking vegetables at the door of the kitchen. He couldn't help but ask: "Mom, where are Xuan Bing and sister-in-law?"
"
Ouyang Wan saw her son coming in, stopped her hand, and replied: "You said you were going to do some beauty treatment, and you asked me to go with you. I'm so old, what else are you doing for beauty treatment? Xiao Rui, your brother-in-law and the others are going to do it tonight
Arrived, you go to the station to pick him up..."
Zhuang Rui smiled and said: "Mom, you are not old at all. If you dress up a little, people will believe you when you go out and say you are my sister..."
"This kid is talking nonsense, okay, it's almost time, go pick up Guodong..."
Ouyang Wan smiled and patted Zhuang Rui. She was very satisfied with her current life. Every morning and evening, she and Zhang's mother and sister-in-law Li went to the park to walk around. The only thing that was a little annoying was that there were too many retired and widowed old men.
Zhuang Rui drove from the station to pick up Zhuang Min and others, and then returned to the courtyard. It was already dark. Ouyang Wan and Zhang Ma made a table of dishes and waited at home. Xu Qing and Qin Xuanbing also came back.
Peng Fei's sister Yaya heard that Nannan was coming and ran over from the front yard. For a while, the courtyard became lively.
Zhuang Rui poured Zhao Guodong a glass of beer and asked, "Brother-in-law, how is the business at home?"
"That's right, our 4S shop opened early and its business is the best in Pengcheng. Those auto repair shops are also good. The waiters and others are now familiar with it, so I have less responsibility..."
Zhao Guodong took a sip of wine with a smile on his face. More than a year ago, he never dreamed that he could live such a life. Not only did he have a house and a car, but everyone would call him "Boss Zhao" when he went out.
More face.
However, Zhao Guodong also knew that all this was given by his brother-in-law. Although he had known Zhuang Rui for many years, Zhao Guodong had a feeling that he could no longer see through Zhuang Rui.
From nothing to a billionaire, and now even a private jet, it only took more than a year. Although the rich are getting younger now, Zhuang Rui's fortune seems a bit too legendary.
After Zhuang Rui heard what Zhao Guodong said, he thought for a moment and said: "Brother-in-law, if you are not busy in Pengcheng, come and live in Beijing. I will open a museum in a while, and I am short of manpower now..."
"Museum? Xiao Rui, I don't know anything about those things..."
Zhao Guodong was stunned when he heard this. He asked him to listen to the sound of the engine. It was okay to deal with cars, but asking him to manage the museum? That was a bit blind.
"Brother-in-law, I just asked you to do management. Someone understands the professional stuff. You and my sister will come over. Our family will live together. It won't be lively..."
Zhuang Rui considered that Huangfu Yun, as his personal lawyer, might be busy with other things in the future. This museum was his largest investment project. Zhuang Rui naturally wanted to find someone to look after it, so that he could rest assured.
"this……"
Zhao Guodong was a little hesitant when he heard this. To be honest, he didn't really want to leave Pengcheng because his family all lived in Pengcheng. It was unclear whether he could adapt to living in Beijing.
"Xiao Rui, don't force your brother-in-law. It's okay where he is. Beijing and Pengcheng are not far apart. Just come here often when you have nothing to do..."
Although Ouyang Wan also wanted her daughter and son-in-law to live here, she knew that Zhao Guodong's parents were there and there were many brothers and sisters, so they could take care of her if they were close. If she really came to Beijing, she might not be able to focus on this.
"Xiao Rui, let me think about this matter. Besides, there is something going on at the auto repair shop over there, and I need to make a decision. Let's wait and see..."
Zhao Guodong thought for a while and then said: "My daughter will go to school when she is one year old. Let her go to school with her mother in Beijing. After all, the education here is better..."
"Oh, great, I can live with my grandma. Sister Yaya, I will go to the same school as you..." After hearing what her father said, Nannan shouted happily.
"You little heartless child, your parents and your mother are all hurting you for nothing..."
When Zhuang Min heard his daughter's words, he nodded his daughter's head angrily with his chopsticks, causing the people at the table to laugh.
"Huh? Mom, I'll answer the phone, you guys eat first..."
While they were joking, Zhuang Rui's cell phone suddenly rang. After looking at the number, Zhuang Rui frowned.
"When the whole family has a meal, how can there be so many things to do?" Ouyang Wan glanced at his son dissatisfied.
"Ahem, I'll be fine soon..."
Zhuang Rui took his cell phone and walked out of the restaurant. He didn't dare not answer the call. If he hung up, Zhuang Rui could guarantee that Officer Miao would come to his house in less than five minutes.
As soon as she answered the phone, Miao Feifei's voice sounded accusatory and questioning: "Zhuang Rui, what's going on with Yu Zhenping's meeting with you this afternoon?!"
"What's going on?"
Zhuang Rui pretended to be confused. He should have talked to the police about asking Monkey to lend Yu Zhenping 1,000 yuan, but Zhuang Rui was busy looking at his museum at that time, so Zhuang Rui hung up Monkey and forgot about it.
.
"Yu Zhenping hasn't returned to the rented place yet. Tell me quickly, what did he do to find the monkey this afternoon?" The voice on the phone was a little anxious.
"Hey, Officer Miao, aren't there people in your police department keeping an eye on him?" Zhuang Rui asked in confusion.
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then said reluctantly: "I lost track of you..."
"Hey, let me tell you, Officer Miao, you are so capable and can lose all his money, why can't you even keep up with an individual?"
When Zhuang Rui heard this, he immediately laughed with gloating, "Brother, I want to ask you something, it's a secret. You are so capable, how come you can even throw away a living person?"
In fact, the police can't be blamed for this. Yu Zhenping's target was too small, and when he left the hotel, he deliberately wandered around the school gate. It was the time when the school was over in the evening, and he walked into the crowd.
Once drilled, it's hard to identify.
Although a total of seven or eight investigators were tracking Yu Zhenping, hundreds of students rushed out and it was impossible to locate the target. The investigators who were stationed near Yu Zhenping's rental house were not seen after waiting for several hours.
After he came back, it was determined that Yu Zhenping had probably left Beijing.
The target was lost. Miao Feifei was under a lot of pressure at the moment. After being ridiculed by Zhuang Rui again, she suddenly exploded and said in a bad tone: "Mr. Zhuang Rui, please answer my question, otherwise you will
We will receive a summons from the police. We have reason to suspect that in order to privately trade cultural relics with Yu Zhenping, you deliberately helped the other party escape our surveillance..."
"Okay, you police have great power and can summon me. Okay, let's leave it at that..."
When Zhuang Rui heard Miao Feifei's words, he immediately got angry. He had no ability, so why bother with his brother? I didn't want to serve him anymore. As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuang Rui immediately hung up the phone.
Just when he was about to go back to eat, Zhuang Rui's phone rang again. It turned out that it belonged to Miao Feifei. Zhuang Rui directly pressed the reject button. The official position is not big, but the official power is not small. I don't evade taxes.
, Second, it’s not illegal, what can you do to me?
"Zhuang Rui, I apologize for what I said just now. I don't mean to blame you, but what happened this afternoon that caused the suspect to disappear? We must know, and we hope you can cooperate..."
The phone didn't ring again, but Zhuang Rui received this text message. Based on Zhuang Rui's understanding of Miao Feifei, this message with a stiff tone was already Miao Feifei's apology to herself.
"Officer Miao, Yu Zhenping called Monkey in the afternoon and said that he was penniless and wanted to borrow some money. I think it's a bit inappropriate to not lend him a penny, right? Let Monkey lend him 1,000 yuan.
,As for where he went, I really don’t know..."
After Zhuang Rui thought for a while, he called again. Of course, he didn't say that he asked to borrow 1,000 and Monkey directly gave him 2,000.
"You...why didn't you inform us of such an important situation?"
After Miao Feifei heard Zhuang Rui's words, she immediately became anxious again. If Yu Zhenping had money, he would probably continue to lurk, and all the previous work done by the task force would be in vain.
"Hey, Officer Miao, I'm not a police officer. I usually have so many things to do. I forget this little thing once I mention it. Then again, I only have so little money on hand. I probably won't have much left after I bought the train ticket.
He's gone, are you still afraid that he won't come back to me?"
Zhuang Rui didn't have the foresight to look forward and backward, and he didn't know that the police could embarrass people, so he felt confident in what he said.
"You... I have nothing to say to you anymore, Zhuang Rui. Let me tell you, if Yu Zhenping has any contact with you again, you must inform us immediately..."
Miao Feifei hung up the phone angrily. Although Zhuang Rui's words made sense, Yu Zhenping had disappeared and the matter was out of the police's control. If he had known this would happen, it would be better to arrest him in advance.
Although surveillance was deployed at major long-distance bus stations and train stations to arrest someone, everyone in the task force knew that the person's counter-investigation ability was extremely strong, and the hope of catching him was slim.
Their guess was correct. At this time, Yu Zhenping was sitting on a train transporting coal, eating roast chicken and drinking white wine. With his figure and dark face, even if he was seen, he would
You would think he was a wandering child.
Time passed day by day, except at the beginning, Miao Feifei often called Zhuang Rui to ask if Yu Zhenping had called?
But more than two months later, the task force was on the verge of being disbanded, and Yu Zhenping seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
It didn't matter to Zhuang Rui, how he should live his life. Zhao Guodong couldn't let go of his relatives in Pengcheng, so he didn't stay in Beijing in the end. However, he left his daughter with Ouyang Wan, which added a lot of fun to the old man.
The decoration of Dingguang Museum has been completed, but there are still a few special display cabinets that have not been completed. It is estimated that the museum will be open in half a month. Zhuang Rui has been busy there these days, and the
The collections were also transported to the museum in batches.
Huangfu Yun arrived in Beijing more than a month ago, and with him was Bas Guimet, the director of the Guimet Museum.
In order to express his sincerity, Bass Guimet not only agreed to Zhuang Rui's conditions, but also used more than ten paintings and calligraphy works donated by Frey that year, as well as Zhuang Rui's proposals such as the Western Han Dynasty's "White Jade Tiger" as trading items.
Zhuang Rui was given an additional batch of Dunhuang cultural relics as a gift.
This batch of cultural relics includes more than 30 incomplete Buddha statues from Dunhuang, more than 20 murals stolen from Dunhuang, and the most precious thing is that there are 130 volumes of Buddhist scriptures that were lost at that time.
Huangfu Yun also lived up to Zhuang Rui's trust and obtained so many precious cultural relics. The price he paid was seven Picasso sketches and portraits.
Everyone has their own preferences for vegetables and radishes, and it is difficult to tell who takes advantage and who suffers in this transaction.
After being notified by Zhuang Rui, the Ministry of Culture made a special report on this matter. As soon as the report came out, it caused a shock in the collecting, archaeological and Buddhist circles across the country. Countless collectors and monks came to Beijing from all over the country to request appreciation of those works.
Buddhist scriptures.
And Fatty Jin’s teacher, who was ninety-three years old, personally rushed to Zhuang Rui’s residence, identified the batch of Buddhist scriptures, and finally confirmed that they were indeed the lost scriptures from Dunhuang.
In addition to handwriting a certificate of identification and handing it to Zhuang Rui, the old man also volunteered his name to Zhuang Rui's museum. The old man, who had not written in big characters for a long time, insisted on writing in big characters directly to avoid Zhuang Rui enlarging it again.
The old man spent more than three hours writing a few simple names. Even in Zhuang Rui's air-conditioned living room, the old man was still so tired that he almost collapsed. If it weren't for Zhuang Rui's aura, he might have done something bad.
There were also several experts from the collection and archeology circles, as well as eminent monks from the Buddhist world who were present at that time. Once the news came out, Zhuang Rui's museum had not yet opened, but it had already become famous in the entire antique collecting circle. Many collectors organized it on their own initiative.
Zhuang Rui is often invited to participate in activities, which keeps Zhuang Rui very busy.
As for the security of the museum, the exterior was handed over to a reputable security company in Beijing. The internal monitoring and patrols in the museum were made up of Hao Long's comrades, a total of twelve people, divided into three shifts to patrol 24 hours a day.
These comrades of Hao Long are all from the special divisions. Their backgrounds are all right, their skills are even more impressive, and they are also familiar with security work. They can handle Zhuang Rui's seemingly complicated monitoring facilities very well.
Zhuang Rui really spent a lot of money by using his operations to bring them under his command.
"Hey...hey, I tell you guys, be careful. Forget it, I'll do it myself..."
Huangfu Yun, the executive deputy director, has almost become a porter these days. His precious swords look like scrap metal to outsiders, so they don’t pay much attention when handling them. But Huangfu Yun
I feel so distressed that almost every sword is placed on a shelf or in a glass cabinet by his own hands.
Zhuang Rui looked at it funny and said: "Brother Huangfu, this is not porcelain, it is not that valuable. Come here, have a drink..."
"Come on, these treasures of mine are more valuable than porcelain. If the lines on this sword are scratched, can you help me polish them back?"
Huangfu Yun glared angrily, carefully placed the Shang Fang sword in his hand on the shelf, which was proven to be from the Ming Dynasty, and turned around to take the mineral water handed by Zhuang Rui.
"Brother Huangfu, how about I take on the role of the person in charge of this museum, I won't wrong you..."
Zhuang Rui asked proudly as he looked at the workers who were installing the showcases in an orderly manner under security arrangements.
Although it is difficult to compare the Dingguang Museum with many large museums in Beijing in terms of floor area, in terms of the quantity and quality of its exquisite collections, the Dingguang Museum is not inferior to it, or even better.
Headed by Guiguzi Yuanxiashan blue and white porcelain jars and Longshan culture black pottery, supplemented by porcelain from the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty and the official kilns of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there are also hundreds of Qing Dynasty porcelains that make up the ceramics exhibition hall. The quality of its collection is unrivaled in the country.
Said to be second to none.
The sword exhibition hall, with the "Dingguang Sword" as its signature, brings together stone axes from the ancient civilization period, bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and iron swords from the Han and Tang dynasties, showing a grand history of war.
Not only that, in the sword exhibition hall, there are also foreign medieval foil swords, cross swords, two-handed swords, and large two-handed swords with a total length of 1.4 meters for chopping.
In addition, there are spears that continue the Roman style, Persian-style scimitars, round, rhombus or small square metal sheets, chainmail sewn on leather or thick cloth, and iron bars and rivets firmly fixed together.
The shield and the cross patterns on the shield make it easy for people to see its origin at a glance.
It was also the first time for Zhuang Rui to see Huangfu Yun's collection. What interested him the most were the strange helmets. Most of these helmets were round and conical, with an iron strip extending from the front of the helmet.
Protect your nose.
One of them is said to be a domed helmet from the 12th century. Except for a slit at the front for the eyes, the entire head and face are covered, and many small holes are cut out in the panel for breathing.
Seeing these helmets and weapons, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but think of the classic character of Don Quixote in his mind.
This is also the only sword exhibition hall in China. Although it has not yet opened, many collectors from Shandong, Hebei, Tianjin and other places and cold weapon enthusiasts who heard the news have already established relationships with each other and requested Zhuang Rui to open it to them in advance.
, even Fatty Jin made a few calls, wanting to take a sneak peek.
Mr. Ma, who was the first to open a private museum in China, also called Zhuang Rui and was willing to exchange some of his opinions on private museums with Zhuang Rui. Yesterday, Zhuang Rui took Huangfu Yun to eat with him.
After having a meal, I got a lot of advice and benefited a lot.
The calligraphy and painting exhibition hall is also a gathering of famous artists. Not only does it have a series of Qing court paintings, but after Song Jun heard that Zhuang Rui was going to open a museum, he told his old man about it. The old man not only returned Tang Bohu's "Li Duanduan Picture", but also
Several works by famous artists of the Ming and Qing Dynasties were also sent, which greatly enriched the collection of the calligraphy and painting exhibition hall.
Moreover, Zhuang Rui also has a trump card, which is the remaining thirteen sketches of Picasso. Although in recent years, domestic collectors have also taken some oil paintings of well-known foreign painters, but the paintings of top masters such as Van Gogh and Picasso
This work by Zhuang Rui is definitely unprecedented and unique.
With these collections, and when some departments were exchanging collections between Dingguang Museum and Guimei Museum, they intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the preciousness of the items collected by Zhuang Rui. At this time, they were already very popular on the Internet, and many collections were
Callers came in from all over the country to inquire about Zhuang Rui’s opening time.
However, Zhuang Rui appeared here now to say goodbye to Huangfu Yun, because he and Qin Xuanbing had agreed to take advantage of the ten days of free time before the opening of the hotel to take wedding photos in Hainan.
Zhuang Rui's graduate student interview has been passed, and he will start graduate school in two months. Before that, Zhuang Rui decided to get married, and Qin Xuanbing stayed at home as a fiancée.
After living there for less than half a year, Zhuang Rui felt very sorry.
The opening of the museum and the wedding ceremony are both very important events in Zhuang Rui's life. They represent that Zhuang Rui's career and love have all come to an end. According to Ouyang Jun, this is called double happiness.
