The free lunch is not good
Zhongxian Private Museum is a very simple Chinese-style building, with black cornices, overlapping, gray and white walls, simple and atmospheric, very Han and Tang style.
Among the many private museums, this museum is considered first-class in terms of size and grandeur.
When Zhao Rui and Shi Jinglan arrived here by car, the museum was already open, but no one was allowed in. There were many people queuing at the entrance, waiting to enter the museum.
A few employees of the Zhongxian Museum stood at the gate, maintaining order while waiting for something.
"Why haven't you entered the museum yet! Didn't you say it opens at nine o'clock? Why isn't it open now after ten o'clock?" Shi Jinglan muttered a little strangely, and then found a person in line to inquire about the situation.
"I heard that we are waiting for some important person. We will not be let in until that important person finishes visiting." A visitor said angrily, "I have been waiting here for an hour."
"I also waited for nearly an hour." Another interrupted, who was also very dissatisfied, "I wouldn't have come if I had known."
"That's right, that's right! I wouldn't have come if I knew it earlier. Standing in line here under such a big sun! It's really a pain."
"After reading the news, I rushed over. Who knew that such a thing would happen!"
"..."
"..."
Someone started, and other visitors also began to complain and vent their dissatisfaction.
"We are all foils, and those big shots are the protagonists!" Shi Jinglan smiled at Zhao Rui, "I told you right? That guy Zhong Xian is just trying to gain fame, if it wasn't for currying favor with those big shots, he would have given up two dollars for a penny." Half, where will there be free tours. I don’t know how long it will take, we might as well go to other places, which is much better than waiting here, at worst, we will come back later.”
Before Zhao Rui could answer, an aunt who brought a child in front of her poked her head over: "The treasures exhibited this time are very precious, and there is even a rare treasure among them, so the number of visitors is limited. You can’t go in, since you’re here, why don’t you just wait, lest you make a trip in vain.”
Hearing what she said, Zhao Rui thought it made sense, so he said with a smile: "Anyway, there's nothing wrong, so we'll wait here. Since we're here, we have to take a look at the so-called rare treasure!"
Shi Jinglan also aroused his curiosity, so he agreed: "Then let's wait, I hope it won't be too long."
Time passed bit by bit while waiting, the sun slowly moved towards the mid-heaven, the sun was getting hotter and hotter, and the outdoor temperature was getting higher and higher.
It is the beginning of September, and although it is theoretically autumn, the temperature is extremely high.
Almost all the visitors waiting in line to enter the museum were sweating profusely and their clothes were soaked in sweat. Some visitors who came with children were afraid that the children would suffer from heat stroke, so they had to leave full of resentment.
"Damn! I've been waiting for half an hour! Why don't you let me in!" Shi Jinglan looked at his watch anxiously, and couldn't help but yelled loudly, his patience was almost exhausted during the waiting, "What the hell are you guys doing?" Let people not visit! Don't let people visit directly! What does it mean to block people outside for a few hours!"
The visitors outside Zhong Xian's private museum were already full of resentment, and their anger was instantly ignited by his yelling, and they also yelled loudly.
"Yes! Yes! What do you mean by that!"
"We have been blocked outside for an hour or two, and we are still not allowed to visit inside! This is a hot day!"
"Falling for fame! It's really fishing for fame! It was even advertised on the TV news! It turned out to be this kind of virtue!"
"You won't be allowed to visit, just say it! Why are you still promoting it on TV!"
"..."
"..."
Several staff members standing at the gate of the museum saw the complaints from the visitors and the difficulty in maintaining order, so they couldn't help but panicked, and hurried in to report to the boss.
After a while, a short, fat middle-aged man came out of the museum.
"That guy is Zhong Xian." Shi Jinglan pouted at the man and said, "It's enough to explode. Out of ten fingers, eight of them wear antique rings, as if they are afraid that others will not know what kind of business he is doing."
"Have character." Seeing that he said something funny, Zhao Rui couldn't help laughing.
Zhong Xian walked to the gate, glanced arrogantly at everyone, and then scolded his staff loudly with a long face: "The exhibits today are not ordinary antiques, they are priceless treasures! Let these poor It is a blessing that ghosts have been able to take a look at for several lifetimes, not to mention that I let them visit for free!
These heartless guys are not only not grateful, they are still talking! Since you don't want to wait, let them go! Where is the free lunch so delicious? "
"yes."
Several employees received the boss's instructions, and suddenly became more courageous, and shouted: "Those who want to visit continue to stay and wait, and those who don't want to see can leave!"
"Hey! Come when you call, leave as soon as you wave. What do you think of us!"
Shi Jinglan was exposed to the sun for more than half an hour. At this time, seeing Zhong Xian and the others had a bad attitude, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he immediately yelled loudly.
Zhao Rui practiced the "Eight Desolation Killing Immortal Art", and he had already reached the point where he could not be invaded by cold and heat. The scorching temperature might not be a big deal to him.
However, Zhong Xian's arrogant attitude made him feel very uncomfortable, so he also echoed: "We have to wait for so long, we must give an explanation!"
Zhong Xian glanced at the two of them, sneered with disdain, and then said in a nonchalant manner, "Explain it? What's the explanation? This is what you want to come! One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer. No one "forces" you If you want to wait, you can go! No one is stopping you!"
Shi Jinglan couldn't hold back any longer, and rushed forward, wanting to argue with Zhong Xian.
The staff and security guards of the museum were also taken aback, pulling and hugging him, trying not to let him get close to Zhong Xian.
"Overreach!"
Zhong Xian glanced at Shi Jinglan from the corner of his eye, pulled the corner of his mouth, showing a strong sarcasm, then lowered his face, and gave the order coldly.
"Get rid of this troublesome bastard!"
The security guards immediately pushed Shi Jinglan away after receiving the order, and then turned back.
"Hey, are you okay?" Zhao Rui walked over and asked.
He is now hiding in Beijiang, and it is inconvenient to show his strength in front of others unless it is absolutely necessary.
"It's not a big deal, I just feel uncomfortable." Shi Jinglan spat bitterly, "Damn! Isn't it just a private museum? What's the big deal! If you don't read it, don't read it. Damn, you bastard I'll come over one night and empty out his museum to see if he's still as good as he is!"
Of course, these were just his angry words when he was angry. I knew it all, so I couldn't take it seriously.
Zhao Rui smiled, without showing any strangeness on his face, but said in his heart:
That's exactly what I'm going to do tonight.
"By the way, are you still going to visit the museum?" Shi Jinglan asked.
"Come in!" Zhao Rui nodded.
"Then I can't accompany you! If you want to see it, go in alone." Shi Jinglan said a little angry.
"Okay, then I'll go and have a look first. After suffering such a big loss, I have to go in and have a look before it's worth it." Zhao Rui made excuses for his behavior, but in fact he was thinking about how to evacuate this museum up.
No matter what, you have to explore the terrain first to see what treasures are inside!
Shi Jinglan didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
After waiting outside for a while, a black Rolls-Royce, escorted by four BMWs, drove to the front of the museum and stopped slowly.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance, a vigorous face, and a somewhat thin face got out of the car.
"Damn! I mean, what big man is Zhong Xian waiting for! It turns out to be Zhong Aimin, the vice president of Yuexiu Group!" Shi Jinglan couldn't help muttering again when he saw the man.
"Zhong Aimin?" Zhao Rui didn't understand the complex relationship in Yuexiu Group at all, so he asked.
"This Zhong Aimin is the younger brother of Zhong Yuan, the president of Yuexiu Group. Although Zhong Yuan controls a huge property, he is very low-key, never accepting interviews, and never appearing in various media. Mysterious. On the contrary, this Zhong Aimin, who often appears in various media, is good at dealing with the "government" and the media. I heard that this Zhong Aimin is the most powerful person in the Yuexiu Group after Zhong Yuan, and Zhong Yuan's right-hand man! Xian probably hugged this thick thigh before he got involved with Zhong Jiapan and squeezed into the upper class of Beijiang."
Shi Jinglan was explaining to Zhao Rui there, Zhong Xian had already seen Zhong Aimin, his little eyes lit up suddenly, and the arrogance just now disappeared in an instant, he quickly led his staff, and trotted to the middle of the man In front of him, he bent his waist slightly, put on a flattering smile, and greeted him with great enthusiasm: "Oh, Vice President Zhong, you are here. Your presence really makes Pengpi shine and makes me feel very grateful." It's an honor!"
In fact, Zhong Xian may be older than Zhong Ai Min, but he keeps saying "you are old" without fear of embarrassment.
