Suning, Hu Bayi, and Wang Kaixuan all boarded the train to the Northeast together. Looking at the scenery along the way, the three of them were filled with excitement and excitement.
At this time, a dashing young woman walked into Professor Chen's office. Professor Chen couldn't help being surprised when he saw the person coming, "Xiao Yang, are you back?"
"Uncle Chen, I'm going to trouble you this time."
"Uncle, I should thank you for sponsoring our archaeological team. This is something that everyone is happy about." Professor Chen looked at Shirley Yang with a smile on his face, and then called Shirley Yang into the room to talk in detail, "Xiao Yang, come to the room quickly.
Sit down, let’s sit down and talk slowly.”
"Aiguo, this is Shirley Yang, Miss Yang, another sponsor of our archaeological team." Professor Chen looked at the confused Hao Aiguo and explained to him with a smile.
"Ah? Hello, Miss Yang! Thank you very much for your support." Hao Aiguo looked at Shirley Yang excitedly.
"Professor Chen, who is this?"
"Ah! Xiao Yang, this is Comrade Hao Aiguo, associate professor of our major and my student." Professor Chen quickly introduced Shirley Yang, "Hao Aiguo, like me, has devoted his life to the study of Western Region culture."
"It turns out to be Teacher Hao. It's our first time meeting you. Please take care of me."
"Haha, Miss Yang, you're welcome. Sit down quickly and I'll pour you some tea."
"Thank you! I'm not thirsty." Shirley Yang stopped the enthusiastic Hao Aiguo, and then looked at Professor Chen with a puzzled look, "Uncle Chen, you just said that I was one of the investors. What on earth is going on?"
"Xiao Yang, the thing is like this." After hearing Shirley Yang's question, Professor Chen explained with a smile, "In addition to your funding, there is a businessman in China who is also willing to sponsor our archaeological team for 200,000 yuan.
, and join us to explore the culture of the Western Regions."
"Dollar?"
"No! Yuan."
"Professor Chen, the current exchange rate of USD to RMB is 2.8, and 200,000 RMB is only over 70,000 USD." Shirley Yang almost got angry when she heard the news from Professor Chen, and immediately generously threw away US dollars.
Just to kick another sponsor away, "How about I make up for the $70,000. This cultural archaeological operation in the Western Regions will be funded entirely by me alone. Please reject this inexplicable businessman."
"Xiao Yang..."
Professor Chen looked embarrassed and was about to explain. Hao Aiguo, who was holding a tea cup next to him, couldn't help it. "Ms. Yang, maybe you don't understand our situation at all. If there is funding and participation from a mainland businessman, our Western Region Archaeological Team
The pressure will be much less, after all, we can be said to be a Sino-foreign cooperative archaeological team."
"Xiao Yang, what you said about patriotism is not wrong. This is also a reason we need to consider." Seeing that Hao Aiguo's words were too blunt, Professor Chen quickly continued to explain with a smile, "At the same time, Xiao Yang, your pressure will be reduced.
, this archaeological operation can also achieve its goal to the greatest extent."
"Professor Chen, what does this businessman do?"
"Huh? It is said that he opened an antique shop in Panjiayuan."
"Professor Chen, isn't it the big gold tooth you mentioned to me last time?"
"No! The sponsor's name is Suning, and he opened an antique shop called "Gu Boxuan" in Panjiayuan."
"Professor Chen, these antique dealers are all in contact with tomb robbers. Isn't that the case with your friend's son Da Jinya?" Seeing Professor Chen who still didn't react, Shirley Yang asked with a wry smile, "Is it possible?
Aren’t you afraid that Suning has another purpose? Aren’t you worried that if we discover the ancient ruins, Suning will contact the tomb robbers?”
"Ah? It shouldn't be possible!" At this time, Professor Chen and Hao Aiguo were both confused.
"Professor Chen, you should know that I am searching for news about my father's disappearance, and I am also employed by World Geography magazine to photograph the customs and cultural monuments of the Western Regions." Looking at the confused two people in front of him, Shirley Yang once again expressed his disapproval.
Suning had strong doubts, "But what is the purpose of this Suning? Is it just to satisfy his curiosity? Then the price is too high! You must know that two hundred thousand yuan is also a sum of money in the mainland.
It’s an incredible amount of money.”
"This..." Professor Chen really didn't know how to answer at this time.
"Ms. Yang, according to your theory, even without the participation of the mainland businessman Suning, if our archaeological team discovers ancient ruins in front of us, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be robbers following behind, right? It may even be the famous international
Big thief." Hao Aiguo on the side retorted.
"You..." Shirley Yang looked at Hao Aiguo angrily. His words clearly questioned his own motives and suspected that he was connected with the international tomb robbing organization.
"Aiguo, you really are overthinking it." After hearing Hao Aiguo's fierce rebuttal and seeing Shirley Yang Tieqing's face, Professor Chen quickly said, "Xiao Yang's father and I are family friends. I believe Xiao Yang
I wouldn’t do such a thing.”
"Humph!" Professor Chen stopped him again, and Hao Aiguo stopped talking.
"Xiao Yang, your considerations are not unreasonable." After calming down the irritable Hao Aiguo, Professor Chen assured Shirley Yang again, "We will make arrangements here, so please don't worry."
"Well, then notify Suning as soon as possible to come and make plans and routes!"
"Haha, okay!" Seeing that Shirley Yang was no longer entangled, Professor Chen couldn't help but feel happy, and then looked at Hao Aiguo beside him, "Aiguo, you go to the "Gu Boxuan" in Panjiayuan to find Boss Su.
Come for a visit."
"Okay! Professor, I'll go right away."
...
Hao Aiguo soon arrived at the Panjiayuan Flea Market in Xiangyang District, and easily saw the signboard of "Gu Boxuan", but at this time, the door of "Gu Boxuan" was locked.
"Comrade, do you know where the boss of "Gu Boxuan" is?" Hao Aiguo looked at a vendor on the roadside and asked.
"Boss Su must have gone to the countryside to receive the goods, right?" the vendor could only guess, and then looked at Hao Aiguo with bright eyes, "Do you want to sell anything? Take it out and I will show it to you."
"Eh? I'm not here to sell anything." Hao Aiguo quickly explained with a wry smile, and then pointed to the white paper next to the vendor, "Boss, can you give me a piece of white paper, and I will leave a message for Boss Su."
"Haha, it's okay! Just use it."
"Thank you!"
Hao Aiguo took out the pen in his pocket and quickly wrote a note. Then Hao Aiguo stuffed the note into the "Gu Boxuan" in front of him through the crack in the door.
At this time, Suning was sitting on the train to the Northeast with Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. When she saw Hu Bayi holding a tattered ancient book and looking at it, Suning suddenly had his own guess.
"Lao Hu, what are you looking at?"
"Huh? This trip to Niuxin Mountain is very important. I'll prepare my homework in advance." Hu Bayi explained with a smile.
"Oh? Can you show it to me?"
"Ah?" Hu Bayi was obviously hesitant, but after looking at the Feng Shui book in his hand and then at Suning, who was very proud of him, he handed the ancient book to Suning, "It's okay! Just read it!"
Of course, Suning also saw Hu Bayi's hesitation. Originally, Suning's temperament would not force others to do anything, but he couldn't bear it because he was really curious about this ancient book, so he took the ancient book handed over by Hu Bayi without saying anything.
.
Suning first turned over the cover of the ancient book and saw the familiar and unfamiliar nine characters on it. He was sure it was the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret" that runs through the entire "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and then he read it carefully as if no one else was watching.
Suning, who originally just wanted to satisfy his curiosity, was soon attracted by the content of "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique". Although this book was only a fragment, it still refreshed his understanding of the world, as if for himself.
A whole new door opened.
When Suning finished reading the entire "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret", he looked up again and found that he was almost at the station. There was not much content in the ancient book. After all, it was just an old and incomplete Feng Shui book, but the content inside was substantial.
It's a bit awkward and difficult to understand. Maybe Hu Guohua and Hu Bayi, the two grandsons, are already very talented!
"Lao Hu, return your book."
"Haha, Suning, how about my ancient book?" Hu Bayi took the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret" with a smile, and then looked at Suning doubtfully.
"It's really a bit awkward and difficult to understand. Maybe I wasn't born to eat this kind of rice." Suning shook his head with a wry smile.
"Haha, I only take it out to kill time when I have nothing to do. In fact, I am only half a bucket full of water."
"Lao Hu, Suning, what were you looking at just now?" Wang Kaixuan, who had woken up at the side, looked at the two of them in confusion.
"Here you go!" Hu Bayi handed the ancient book directly to Wang Kaixuan.
Wang Kaixuan curiously took the ancient book. He felt a little dizzy before he even opened two pages. He immediately returned the ancient book to Hu Bayi, "Oh my god! It really made me dizzy."
.”
"Haha..." Suning and Hu Bayi were both amused by Wang Kaixuan.
The train arrived at the station not long after, and then Suning and Hu Bayi got off the train together again carrying large and small bags. The scene was really like a war.
Fortunately, there were already people in the village waiting at the exit of the station. The person who came was the village accountant who came to the county town for business. A young woman wearing glasses, it seemed that she was very familiar with Hu Bayi.
He hugged and hugged me excitedly.
"Brother Hu, who is this?" The accountant looked at Suning next to him in confusion.
"Haha, he is our friend, his name is Suning."
"Hello!"
"Hello!"
When Suning and Hu Bayi put the large and small packages of gifts on the carriage, the three of them completely freed their hands. The accountant looked at Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan with a smile on his face, "Brother Hu, fortunately I have
When I came to the county seat to do business, as soon as I received your call, I waited for you in the county seat for an extra day."
"Haha, this time we revisited our old place, mainly to see the folks in the village, and then we wanted to find the Kwantung Army fortress in Yerengou, Heishankou."
"Kwantung Army Fortress?" The accountant looked at Hu Bayi with a puzzled look, and then said with regret, "All the strong laborers in our village were taken away by the archaeological team, otherwise it would be better to pick a few men to accompany you.
.”
"Well, let's go back to the village to discuss it first! Maybe our village can make a fortune this time." Hu Bayi said to the accountant with a smile.
"Ah? Brother Hu, are you telling the truth?" The people in the village have been poor for too long, and the accountant looked at Hu Bayi with excitement.
"Yes! There must be a lot of supplies in the Kwantung Army fortress, which can definitely help our village get rid of poverty."
"Great! This time the village will definitely help you find the Kwantung Army fortress." After having a bright prospect, the accountant was full of energy.
...
The carriage bumped along the way for a long time, and finally arrived at the village where Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were educated youths. Suning had always been a listener and did not say anything. After all, he could not interrupt their conversation.
After arriving in the village, the three of them were immediately warmly welcomed by the people in the village. Both the old party secretary and the new party secretary came out to greet them in person. The standards were of the highest standard.
After Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan distributed the gifts, all the villagers looked at the three people with even more intense eyes. They really regarded the three people as relatives from the bottom of their hearts.
"Oh! This is a lot of cloth and clothes?" The women looked at the cloth and ready-made clothes in surprise.
"The clothes are almost all men's and women's children's clothing. They can be given to the children in the village. I will use the cloth for you adults to make your own clothes," Suning explained with a smile.
"That's great! Thank you so much." The women couldn't help being pleasantly surprised, and then said with emotion, "You don't know how difficult it is for us to buy cloth and clothes."
That night, the village cooked a sumptuous dinner for Suning and Hu Bayi. Almost all of their best stock was taken out. Suning looked at these simple fellows and couldn't help but feel a little moved, and then secretly left.
I took out two bottles of Maotai from the space.
"Wow! Maotai!" As soon as the two bottles of wine appeared in front of everyone, Wang Kaixuan looked over with stars in his eyes.
"Haha, you two party secretaries, let's not go home until we get drunk tonight." Suning smiled and looked at the two party secretaries.
"Ah? This is really good wine!" The old branch secretary and the new branch secretary both looked at each other in surprise, and then said with some embarrassment, "It would be a waste to drink it for us."
"Two party secretaries, it's not as exaggerated as you said. In the final analysis, it's just wine for us to drink." Suning opened two bottles of wine without taking it seriously.
The next five men drank wine heartily, and soon the atmosphere became more and more harmonious. The party secretary looked at Hu Bayi with a puzzled look, "Xiao Hu, I heard that the accountant said that you want to go to Guandong in Yerengou."
Military fortress?”
"Party Secretary, we are here with Boss Su this time. He is very interested in the Kwantung Army fortress in Yerengou." Hu Bayi explained with a smile.
"Yes! Party Secretary, we just want to see the structure inside, and then take some videos and photos, and leave the materials and other things to the villagers in the village." Suning explained with a smile and nodded.
"Ah? Are you sure you can find it?"
"No problem! I have researched some information before coming here, and I am almost certain to find the Kwantung Army fortress this time." Suning was very confident in Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.
"Comrade Su, would you like some people from our village to accompany you to Yerengou?"
"Ah? Aren't all the men in your village accompanying the archaeological team to work?" Suning and the three of them all looked confused.
"That's right! But the women in our village are also very good at hunting. Almost every family has a shotgun. It will be much safer to bring them along."
To be honest, Suning was really moved. After all, they were all qualified hunters and had lived in the Daxinganling area all year round. Their experience and abilities were definitely unmatched by the three of them.
"Two branch secretaries, please select ten qualified hunters. If you can find the Kwantung Army fortress, all the supplies inside will belong to your village. If we can't find it this time, I will pay you a daily salary.
Just ten yuan a day, as men earn when working for an archaeological team."
"Ah? How can this be so embarrassing?" The two branch secretaries were shocked, and even Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan next to them couldn't help but be a little speechless.
"Haha, let's make some contributions to the village!" Suning smiled and looked at the two party secretaries.
"Then thank you, Comrade Su."
"You two party secretaries, you're welcome." Looking at the two excited party secretaries in front of him, Suning said nonchalantly, "Without your support, the three of us can't accomplish anything."
