Chapter 262 Heavy History

With the sponsorship of Rockwell Group, this trip to the National Museum was particularly luxurious.

Luo Yanchen directly chartered a private plane and flew directly from Yancheng to Nancheng.

The accommodation conditions are all suites, and the service measures of the five-star hotel made the other four people except the husband and wife very happy this time.

Seeing everyone's happy faces, Director Shi thanked Luo Yanchen again.

"Thank you Mr. Luo for this funding. You and your wife are really benefactors of our National Museum!"

Director Shi recalled his interactions with Bai Qingluo and Luo Yanchen, and felt even more deeply that he had not missed such a noble person.

Bai Qingluo just asked Director Shi not to be too polite.

To the Luo family, these are just a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning.

The organizer of the auction sent them this auction manual, three copies in total.

After receiving it, Director Shi muttered in confusion: "Generally speaking, one member only has one quota, so how come there are two more manuals?"

"Then the extra two portions can be given to me and Qingluo, okay?"

Director Shi nodded repeatedly, "Of course there is no problem! Take these two extra copies and take a good look at them. If there is anything you want to take a photo of, you can use our number to call."

He is the big benefactor this time.

One of them gave 10 million in one lump sum, and the other paid all the travel expenses in one lump sum. Director Shi treated Bai Qingluo and Luo Yanchen respectfully.

Bai Qingluo smiled and took the auction manual, and went back to her room with Luo Yanchen.

She flipped through the brochure and discovered that the items to be auctioned were all scratched cultural relics.

"Isn't this auction for the international community? I read the information and said that in addition to Chinese people, there are also many Western countries. How come the cultural relics in this auction are all domestic..."

After flipping through the booklet, Bai Qingluo didn't see any foreign cultural relics.

I thought I would be able to experience the beauty of different cultures this time, but I didn’t expect that I would only see my own.

Luo Yanchen didn't know much about these things. "You can ask Director Shi after dinner. He should know more about this aspect."

"good."

Bai Qingluo turned to the page about the red tassel gun she just saw.

Looking at the photo, it is indeed the same one she used before.

I wonder if Director Shi and the others are interested in this red-tasseled gun. If not, she might be able to buy it back.

Seeing that Bai Qingluo's eyes were always on the same page, Luo Yanchen also turned to the same page as her.

Seeing the red-tasseled spear of the female general, Luo Yanchen's lips revealed a meaningful smile.

Sure enough, as long as it is related to the general

"We'll film it if you want."

Luo Yanchen's voice suddenly came to her ears, and Bai Qingluo didn't react for a while.

After a while, she shook her head and declined Luo Yanchen's idea, "If the National Museum wants this red tassel gun, I still want to donate it to the country first."

No matter when and where, what she demands of herself is always the people of the country first, and herself second.

Luo Yanchen frowned slightly and didn't say much.

At dinner time, Luo Yanchen invited other people on this trip to the hotel for dinner.

The restaurants in the five-star hotel are also first-class, and the seafood buffet alone is enough to make other people unable to take their eyes away.

"You young people just like these things. I am already old and I have no appetite for watching these things."

Only Director Shi has no interest in seafood.

He is too old to eat seafood with high uric acid content.

Only then did Luo Yanchen react.

"I'm really sorry. I didn't think it through. I'll tell the kitchen to make a set meal. It'll be ready soon."

After saying that, Luo Yanchen called the waiter to order a meal.

The waiter took him to select ingredients. Luo Yanchen gave Director Shi the opportunity to order, but Director Shi refused.

"I rarely leave the Imperial Capital and Yancheng. I don't know much about what to eat here. I have Lao Luo to always help me order some suitable dishes."

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

Luo Yanchen lowered his voice and asked Bai Qingluo if there was anything he wanted to eat, then stood up and left with the waiter.

When he walked away, Director Shi said with emotion to Bai Qingluo: "Qingluo, you are so lucky to have such a husband!"

With a smile on her lips, Bai Qingluo poured a drink for Director Shi, "I don't know where Director Shi started from."

"I don't believe you don't know what I'm talking about. You have such a husband, who is handsome, rich, and gentle to you. But I think you two have made each other successful, and you are better than most women in this world."

Director Shi felt that he was lucky to be able to witness the love between this couple.

"Thank you curator for the compliment."

Bai Qingluo took out the auction brochure she got today from her small bag.

"When I was flipping through the manual just now, I found a problem that I didn't particularly understand." She put the auction manual on the table and flipped through a few pages. "I found that the cultural relics in the auction are all from China. This is an international auction.

Yes, is there something unusual?"

When this topic was mentioned, Director Shi's face immediately darkened.

He looked at the manual and turned a few more pages.

Finally, he sighed again.

Director Shi's reaction to the cover made Bai Qingluo feel weird.

Is it possible that there are some origins in this?

"I saw that your knowledge of ancient times was sufficient, and I thought you knew everything about history. It turns out that you also have a blind spot in knowledge."

"The Director of History thinks highly of me. I only know more about ancient knowledge due to my interest."

Bai Qingluo didn't understand the word blind spot, but it didn't hinder the two of them from chatting.

She humbly asked the curator the reason for this, and wanted to know what happened.

Her intuition told her that the history behind these cultural relics might be heavier than she thought.

"These are cultural relics that were taken away by shotguns in modern times. At that time, political reforms took place in the West, and the industrial revolution promoted the development of science and technology. It was much more advanced than China in terms of development."

"The last feudal dynasty was extremely corrupt and incompetent, and was powerless to resist the invasion of enemy countries. The wars that occurred in those years caused many of our country's cultural relics to be lost overseas."

In just a few words, the sadness of that era is revealed.

If it weren't for the lack of national strength, how could our country's treasures be reduced to auction items today?

"This auction is said to be for the international community, but in fact it is the thieves who plundered our cultural relics in the past and sold these cultural relics to us." The curator felt even more sad when he thought of this, "It is obviously his own thing, but he can only pay for it.

return."

Bai Qingluo's hands couldn't help but tremble.

She didn't expect that something like this would happen hundreds of years after her.

In the dynasty she lived in, how could such outrageous things happen? How could those barbarians have the courage to invade their country of China?!
