The next morning, in front of the Shanghai Museum—
"Brother Zhong, is this the museum in Shanghai?" Le Yuan said, looking at the building in front of him that was somewhat grand but more bleak.
"Hahaha, look what I said, there are only a few people paying attention to this museum. If I didn't give face to the museum director, I wouldn't come here." Looking at the sign of Shanghai Museum, my hair turned white with disdain. He said, "Although this is called a museum, the people in this museum are filthy. I don't know how many valuable things have been resold to foreign ghosts. Why are brothers interested in antiques and the like? I can help them." It’s a line.”
"Haha, I'm not interested in antiques, but I am very interested in the Eye of Shangri-La today. I wonder what kind of gem it is. I heard it is a priceless treasure?" Le Yuan said.
"Priceless treasure?" Zhi Zhongfa lit a cigarette, took a puff and said, "I have seen many priceless treasures, but they often have a price, but many people fail to pay a high price."
"Boss Zhong really has a lot of meaning in what he said. Why don't we go in now?" Le Yuan asked, looking at Zhong Fabai who had been staying at the gate.
"Hahaha, I'm fine with drinking, so I just say this casually. As for now, when the curator comes to invite me to participate in that ceremony, so to speak, he has to invite us in to be worthy of my status. Okay." Zhongfa said to Le Yuan with a white smile.
Just after the two of them chatted for a while, a bald man came out to greet him with a smile: "Hahaha, the boss of the middle school, I apologize for the inconvenience."
I saw my hair turning white when I saw the person coming and said impatiently, "Director Jin, why don't you take out those gems with ghost eyes? My brother is very interested. Hurry up and finish this. I'm still here." I want to have a good drink with him!"
"It's really a great addition to our hotel that Boss Zhong's friends are so interested. Please come with me. The Eye of Shangri-La is inside, and it's not convenient here." With that, Director Jin moved Le Yuan Hezhong was welcomed into the Shanghai Museum with a white hair.
In the director's office, Director Jin carefully took out a wooden box from the safe, placed it on the table and said, "The Eye of Shangri-La is here. Please take a closer look."
Zhongfabai didn't care much about the gems. He took out the Eye of Shangri-La from the wooden box, looked at it for a while and said, "Is this the Eye of Shangri-La? It's just a little bigger. It looks like Made of glass. What the hell are those layers outside? Golden snakes?"
As if he was not interested in the Eye of Shangri-La, he casually threw it to Le Yuan. Under Curator Jin's frightened gaze, Le Yuan firmly grasped the Eye of Shangri-La in his hand.
Putting it in front of his eyes and looking at it, there is no doubt that it is exactly the same as the Eye of Shangri-La that hides the fountain of immortality in his memory. Its base is engraved with an oracle inscription, and Le Yuan, a language master, translated it - only those with a pure heart can open their divine eyes to a drop of blood.
While it was in his hand, Le Yuan realistically threw an identification technique on the gem out of habit.
Eye of Shangri-La
Level: None
Quality: ordinary
Can it be taken out: No
Note: The mysterious gem that has been passed down for thousands of years seems to hide some amazing secrets.
Putting the Eye of Shangri-La back into the wooden box, Le Yuan said calmly: "Make a price, I like this very much."
Before Curator Jin could speak, he spoke first: "Brother, you still like these women's jewelry. Tell me earlier. I will take you to the best jewelry store in Shanghai for these things. There are all kinds of styles there." We have everything, why do we need these things that are dug out of the earth, which is bad luck.”
"This is the only Eye of Shangri-La in the world. It is very unique. I want to give it to my fiancée. I think she will like it." Le Yuan said while thinking about what Ronger would do if she received this gem. Scenes.
"Haha, your fiancée will definitely like this gem, but I want to discuss the price." Director Jin rubbed his hands and said.
"Hmph, you also want to blackmail the people I brought. You must be impatient." Upon hearing Director Jin's words, the big man in Shanghai couldn't understand. He just wanted to have fun. Yuan made a fortune, but Le Yuan brought it himself and was blackmailed. He was not very shameless, so he angrily grabbed Director Jin's tie with his right hand, made a fist with his left hand and tried to hit Director Jin with a punch. long face.
Seeing Zhongfabai moving his hands, Le Yuan grabbed Zhongfabai's left wrist with his right hand and said: "Boss Zhongfa, don't be so angry. You will lose points if you fight with him. So you He’s also a big boss!”
After listening to Le Yuan's words, he thought: This is also true. I have been the eldest brother for so long, how can I still take action so casually
Zhongfabai slowly let go of Director Jin's hand, but he still said: "This is a gift from my brother to a woman. If you continue to raise prices like this, I will still beat you!"
With such a fuss, Director Jin's courage flew away in an instant. He looked at Le Yuan and said solemnly: "I also need to take care of this. Many people know about the Eye of Shangri-La." It is kept in the Shanghai Museum. I also want to make a replica to fool the people who have inspected it. All of this costs money."
Le Yuan patted Director Jin on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. Just tell me the number. As long as you are not a lion, I will pay you immediately."
Curator Jin saw that Le Yuan was still very talkative, so he stretched out five fingers and said: "Five thousand, this Eye of Shangri-La is a valuable treasure. I will clear it up, and this five thousand is not too much."
"Five thousand? Do you know how much I spent on jewelry for so many women? Now you have taken five thousand from my brother in one go. That's not a lot." The curator was very angry at these words.
Le Yuan's right hand stopped Zhong Fabai, who was about to rush forward and slap Director Jin, and said, "Brother Zhong, don't be angry. Since Director Jin dares to ask for five thousand, he naturally has some considerations. Okay, I'll give it to you." . ”
As he spoke, he held his backpack in front of him, unzipped it, and dumped all the contents in the backpack onto the desk in the curator's room.
There was only a "crash" banging sound on the desk. Director Jin and Zhongfa Bai were shocked by the scene on the table. They saw gold bars being dumped on the table at random. Jin Guan Chang swallowed his saliva and checked the authenticity of the gold.
His hair turned white and he was in a daze for a while. He was a gangster, but he was not used to exchanging all his money into gold bars. Besides, he had many younger brothers to support, and he didn’t have a lot of money. It looked like he had no money at all. Carelessly pouring out all the gold bars just for the Eye of Shangri-La, he couldn't help but admire him and said: "Brother, you are doing this for your sister-in-law. I believe my sister-in-law will be very touched."
"She is the most important person to me now and my only relative. How could I treat her badly?" Le Yuan picked up the wooden box and said.
The gold curator on the side also checked the gold bars and said, "Okay, this gentleman is really rich. Twenty gold bars, each of which is the same weight, is indeed worth five thousand yuan. I don't know what else I can do." Of?"
Le Yuan put the wooden box into his bag, but actually transferred it to his space backpack, and said to Curator Jin: "There is a reference room in the museum. I would like to use the reference room to check some documents in the future, no problem."
"Of course, of course it's no problem. Sir, given your strong support to our library, these little things are no problem, of course." Director Jin replied enthusiastically.
In the following days, apart from drinking with Zhongfa Bai at night, the place where Le Yuan spent the most time was the reference room of the Shanghai Museum.
Putting all the documents on the table in front of him, Le Yuan rubbed his temples and thought about: the Black Pearl, which was still there decades ago in Pirates of the Caribbean; the legend about mummies written by archaeologist Evelyn The story; the legendary adventures of adventurer Indiana Jones; and the latest news in front of him - Hitler was obsessed with the power of myth and sent multiple troops to various parts of the world, including one in Egypt, one in the Far East, and special forces in Europe - Hydra.
HYDRA, the villain organization in the Marvel universe, was affiliated with Nazi Germany during World War II. In other words, is this the theme of this world? The Marvel Universe looks like the movie version.
Le Yuan's brain started spinning rapidly. World War II, the birth of Captain America, and the most important piece of treasure, the Dragon's Jade Opp - the Cosmic Cube, should still be hidden in Norway. "Adventure King", "Tomb of the Dragon Emperor", and "Captain America 1" can be completed at staggered times. Le Yuan's current focus is on Adventure King.
Shanghai Justice Daily is a newspaper that specializes in criticizing the crimes committed by Japan in China. The newspaper director's surname is the school's first name, and he is called the principal.
Inside the newspaper office, "Are you here to apply? We didn't say we were recruiting people." The principal said looking at Le Yuan standing in front of him.
"Yeah, look at your outfit. I can't even afford a set of your clothes with a month's salary. Why are you still applying for a job with us?" said a young girl with braided hair next to the principal.
"In Shanghai, who doesn't know that Zhengyi Daily is the most fair and least afraid of Japanese influence. It is an honor for me to work in such a newspaper. This is a story I wrote. I hope your newspaper will accept it." Le Yuan handed his copy of "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" to the principal.
I saw the principal flipping through a few pages, and then he was attracted by the story. After a while, he said: "Wonderful story and good writing. You can submit articles to any newspaper in Shanghai. Why did you choose ours?" After saying this, he stared at Le Yuan, as if thinking To see something.
"In addition to admiring the concept of running a newspaper at the Justice Newspaper Office, I also want to wait for someone here. I think he will definitely come here." Le Yuan said, looking at the principal intently.
"Okay, you can come here to work tomorrow, but our salary is not high. You only need to submit a story every day, and you don't need to stay in the newspaper office all day." The principal looked at Le Yuan for a while, and then left Le Yuan. Come down.
"Thank you, principal. I will hand in the manuscript on time tomorrow. I am currently living in the Shanghai Museum. If you need anything, you can find me there." After saying that, Le Yuan left.
Justice Daily.
