Suddenly, Zhou Tao's eyes lit up and he saw the introduction of the Huaxia Pavilion:

Exhibition Hall 33 of the British National Museum is a permanent exhibition hall dedicated to displaying Chinese cultural relics. Along with the ancient Egyptian, ancient Greek, ancient Roman and Indian exhibition halls, it is one of the only several national exhibition halls in the museum. The museum collects Chinese cultural relics.

It covers the entire art category of China. In a nutshell, ancient stone tools, Shang and Zhou bronzes, Wei and Jin stone Buddhist scriptures, Tang and Song calligraphy and paintings, Ming and Qing porcelain and other national treasures that mark the pinnacle of various cultures in Chinese history can be seen here, and

It can be said that the categories are complete and beautiful.

However, this is only part of the 23,000 rare Chinese treasures collected by the British National Museum. The other nine-tenths are stored in 10 collection rooms. Unless special permission is obtained, ordinary tourists have no chance to meet them.

Some collections, such as the Tang Dynasty copy of Gu Kaizhi's "Proverbs of a Female History" from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, can only be viewed by special experts. "Programs of a Female History" is the earliest surviving Chinese silk painting and the earliest professional Chinese painting that can still be seen.

One of the painter's works, it has a milestone significance in the history of Chinese art and has been a treasure collected by the palaces of all dynasties.

There are only two copies left in the world. One is a copy by the Song Dynasty and is collected by the Palace Museum in Beijing. The brushwork and color are not of the highest quality. The other is this copy in the British National Museum. It was originally collected by the Qing Palace and belonged to Emperor Qianlong.

Desk treasures hidden in the Old Summer Palace. In 1860, the British and French forces invaded Beijing. British Captain Ji Yong stole it from the Old Summer Palace and took it abroad.

It was collected by the British National Museum in 1903 and became the most important oriental cultural relic in the museum. It is no exaggeration to call it the "treasure of the museum". This copy is stored in the Stein Secret Room in the museum. According to reports, the Dunhuang Studies Research Institute of Nanjing Normal University

Xie Chengshui, director of the Center's Art Research Office, accidentally saw this copy in the secret room in 2002. At that time, there was only a record of two Japanese people who came to the site to copy in the 1920s.

On the central wall of the Huaxia Hall, there are tens of square meters of Dunhuang murals. Although the cut marks are still visible, they cannot conceal its lasting beauty and the grace and splendor of the three "rich and fat" Bodhisattvas. The national treasure Dunhuang collected by the British National Museum

There are tens of thousands of scrolls and scriptures. Except for this mural, other collections are hard to find in the Huaxia Hall.

From 1856 to 1932, a number of so-called "Western explorers" went deep into northwest China more than 60 times in the name of scientific expeditions, and each time they looted a large number of documents and cultural relics, especially in 1907 by the Hungarian Stein and the French

Pelliot looted the most cultural relics from the Dunhuang Scripture Cave

Zhou Tao punched the mattress, almost knocking the whole bed down, and cursed angrily: "The bastard British imperialism actually robbed so many of our treasures! However, China is a polite person.

In this country, the so-called courtesy is reciprocated, and this time, I will return a heavier gift to you!"

In a depressed mood, Zhou Tao called all the brothers to go to the street together. Anyway, it was still early and his talents were just starting to show up. There was a lot of time to waste.

As they walked along the street, the group of them also attracted the attention of tourists on the street, because they were so dazzling, oriental, handsome, and dressed in high-end fashion. At first glance, they looked like wealthy owners.

London is a shopping paradise. There are both old shops that provide services to the British royal family and small open-air street shops. Most shops are open from 10:00 to 18:00. Thursday is a late-night shopping day, and many shops are open until 19:00.

Many small street shops are still open at 00 or 20:00 on weekends, attracting many ladies to London. There are two big sales every year. The summer sales discount is about 30%-50%, which is held in the fourth week of June every year.

The winter sales discount will be about 40%-60% in the three cycles to the second week of July, from Christmas to the end of January.

Today happened to be Thursday, and many shops were still open. Zhou Tao felt depressed and started shopping like crazy. Anyway, he would be able to earn back the money from the UK soon, so he didn't feel sad at all.

Zhou Tao bought every piece of his favorite sports brand, his wife's cosmetics and jewelry, and the Eighteen King Kongs who followed him became the best means of transportation. Their hands were filled with many bags.

Really eye-catching

Finally, when the Eighteen Diamonds could no longer be held in his hands, Zhou Tao stopped his desire to shop and ordered them to go back first while the five of him continued playing.

When the five of them got hungry, Chu Xiaoshuai suggested: "Let's go eat something. When we come to England, how can we not try other people's delicacies!"

Everyone was excited and asked a volunteer where there were restaurants with British characteristics. The beautiful volunteer introduced very politely: "Dear Oriental guests, if you want to experience the British flavor, you must try the wine."

A traditional lunch, whether it's barbecue (barbecue) or hot steak-and-kidney pudding (steak-and-kidney pudding), is made with fresh ingredients, generous portions, and full of authentic flavor. Feel the pastoral flavor while drinking country wine, and drink locally brewed strong beer.

, while enjoying Lancashire beef stew, Welsh rarebit, haggis and neeps, the feeling is irresistible.”

"It only takes 20 minutes to get on a traditional carriage from here to find such wine. Every carriage driver knows where the wine is, so you can get on the carriage with confidence," the mm volunteer said with a smile.

Zhou Tao showed a charming smile and said to his sister: "Thank you, beautiful lady! You are such a good person. See you again when I have the opportunity!"

My sister was shocked by his smile, and she felt lost for a moment. It wasn't until Zhou Tao and his party walked a few meters away that they came back to their senses and shouted: "Goodbye!" But she was secretly shy in her heart. This oriental boy is so charming.

It's a bit embarrassing that I can't even control myself!

Seeing this, Chu Xiaoshuai smiled and said: "Boss, it seems that you have lost my soul again. Judging from the look of that little girl, I'm afraid she will follow you back if you just wave."

"Fuck you, I'm not that slutty, I'm like you, as if you're hungry and don't choose what to eat!" Zhou Tao laughed and cursed.

"If the boss is not a slut, then no one would dare to call him a slut! Who has eleven wives and still eats outside?" Chu Xiaoshuai revealed Zhou Tao's "true face" mercilessly.

Wen Chong and the other three also looked at Zhou Tao with a "contemptuous" look, which made Zhou Tao's old face that was comparable to a city wall blush. He quickly changed the subject and said, "Come on, let's get in the car. We're all hungry."

It’s time to croak.”

As a microcosm of British culture, wine has become a must-go place for almost every British person. "Liquor" has become an indispensable part of British life. Only when you have truly experienced wine can you understand why the British love it so much and why the British always love it.

It is said that if you have never been to the wine shop, you have not been to the UK.

Most British wines do not have bartenders. You have to buy wine in Taiwan yourself. To some extent, wine promotes social interaction among British people, because this is the most suitable place for cordial conversations with strangers. British people are usually very conservative and accustomed to

Because they work from 9 to 5, they have very little communication with strangers. British people in the wine usually change their old-fashioned faces. Even to people they don't know, they will greet each other warmly.

You can even make some incomprehensible jokes. Wine is like a bridge, which can shorten people's psychological distance and make people's lives no longer limited to a small circle. After ordering wine at the counter, guests can stand or sit next to them as they please.

, relax, stretch your brows, talk and laugh happily

Zhou Tao and the others are currently staying in a restaurant called "es" in Kingston upon Thames. It is a two-storey restaurant with curved glass windows facing the river. The environment is quite comfortable, allowing people to enjoy the beauty of the Thames River while eating.

We ordered several delicacies introduced by the beautiful mm volunteer, went to Taiwan to get two dozen strong beers, and the few of us began to enjoy the unique British wine and food.

Very average, this was Zhou Tao's first feeling. These foreign dishes are really not of any quality. They are far inferior to the ones he cooks. They actually can't arouse his appetite when he is hungry. This shows the difference in taste.

In fact, this is mainly due to the difference between Eastern and Western food cultures. For example, Westerners like barbecue meat to be somewhat cooked, while Easterners do not eat it if it is not cooked well. This also leads to the fact that the cooked food they make cannot satisfy Zhou Tao.

After eating a little to fill their stomachs, Zhou Tao and others began to taste the strong beer. They were very satisfied with the wine. It felt very good and had a unique stimulation.

The meal lasted for more than an hour, and the five people drank several dozen beers. If the boss hadn't been afraid that they would cause trouble if they drank too much, they would have continued drinking.

They didn't take a car, so they just walked all the way back. When they passed a relatively remote street, they suddenly heard a burst of crying, accompanied by bursts of laughter inside.

Zhou Tao winked, and the five of them walked towards the alley. They saw a dozen drunk British men surrounding a few girls, laughing and groping.

Zhou Tao took a closer look and recognized that one of the girls was actually a representative figure of the Japanese country - the table tennis team's porcelain doll Fuyuan Ai. At this moment, she was dodging the hands of two drunkards, with a look of panic on her face.

Zhou Tao stared at that cute face that I felt pity for, and felt an evil spirit rising in his heart. Oh my, the time has come to win glory for the country! If you are in love with your husband, let this evil god conquer you!

He winked at Wen Chong and others, and whispered: "Let's take action together to rescue those beauties, and then, except for that baby-faced one, you can have sex as you please, how about that?"

Wen Chong looked at him with disdain and said shamelessly: "Boss, who pretended to be innocent just now? I didn't expect that you can't tie your belt when you see a beautiful woman, hehe!"

Zhou Tao said solemnly: "Wrong, big mistake! Don't think of me so vulgarly. We always talk about bringing glory to the country. Now that the opportunity has come, how can we not seize it? Just tell me, can you do it?"

Do it? If you don’t want to do it, I’ll do it myself, but then I’ll take all the beauties, hehe!”

Chu Xiaoshuai immediately said: "Fuck it, anyone who doesn't will be a bastard!"
Chapter completed!
