The 794th chapter is to be a party (1)

As mentioned before, there is a kind of person in the city called Lao Ke Le, which means old white-collar worker, and Ke Le is the transliteration of "collar".

They are the first white-collar workers to accept overseas culture. They have been strongly impacted by Western culture, have seen some markets, and pride themselves on being elegant. Therefore, they are unwilling to "join the same trend as ordinary people."

Even in the most impoverished years, when you have to eat rice bran to eat vegetables, you still have to make a cup of coffee and half a bottle of red wine to taste it in a high-end restaurant. This is the ultimate Shanghai-style culture.

There is also a kind of people in Africa called "Kinshasha". They are Congolese people who would rather not eat or drink, but they still want to be bright and behave elegantly.

This is how Mr. Jazz behaves in his daily life.

Of course, his downfall was only in scientific research. The old guy's living conditions were still very good, and he was not reduced to selling his Nobel Prize to make ends meet like Watson did in his later years.

Yes, it is Mr. Watson who is currently competing with Shen Guanglin in the scientific research competition of the Human Genome Project. He is still the person in charge of Cold Spring Harbor and is a truly world-renowned big shot. He probably never thought that one day he would be reduced to begging. day.

Back to reality, the old jazz's daily life is actually leisurely and elegant.

When he is not in a hurry, he exudes an aristocratic air in his movements.

Moreover, he has a spacious bungalow and a beautiful garden. Although he is a bit older, he walks straight and behaves elegantly. He also wears plaid shirts. His clothes must be sent to a laundry and dyeing shop for cleaning. There must be an ironing line, and the leather shoes should be meticulous and polished very brightly.

They will maintain a gentleman's demeanor and lifestyle at all times.

However, when Shen Guanglin promised to help him solve scientific research problems, he showed a kind of anxiety and desire.

Now the two of them have the same emotion, and they can't wait to see each other's treasure right away.

So, Shen Guanglin took Li Li and followed the old Jazz to his residence, riding in the old guy's limited edition Rolls-Royce.

Moreover, you will be greeted by a butler at the door and a springer.

Springer spaniel is not a human, but a kind of dog. It is not too big and is similar to a Chinese garden yellow. From the perspective of Boss Shen, a senior dog lover, it should taste good.

Boss Shen loves dogs to the core. One time he saw a particularly beautiful dog and wanted to spend money to rescue it. However, he failed to bring enough money several times and in the end he only bought half of the dog.

Mr. Jazz is a man who lives a very particular life. No, when he gets home, someone opens the door, someone takes his coat, someone hands him a cigar, someone lights a match.

If you are really a big dog owner, you just know how to enjoy it.

Comparing the two cars, Shen Guanglin is really a nouveau riche who doesn't even know how to spend money.

The Golden Hair Paradise Haitian Feast is already the ultimate in Shen’s imagination.

We all have business to do, so we stopped chatting. Mr. Sir, doesn’t he have a collection of Chinese calligraphy and painting? Take it out and take a look.

Jazz also believed in Shen Guanglin's character and said there was no need to bring it over, we could just go and take a look.

Then it would be better to obey orders than to be respectful.

For European aristocrats, it is naturally inappropriate for a knight to be unworthy of a manor.

Although the jazz manor is not big, there are several buildings that give it a very antique feel.

Shen Guanglin asked, what level of knight is Mr. Jazz?

Hum, he's just a viscount, one level lower than an earl, so he really has nothing to show off.

Mr. Shen has read a book called "The Count of Monte Cristo", which is a work by the French writer Grand Stallion.

The storyline of The Count of Monte Cristo is very interesting, many people are imitating its setting, and it has influenced many people.

To be honest, stallion is also a way of writing, but the censorship of certain articles is strict and it is not allowed to be written.

In the old Sir's place, there is a special warehouse for storing items from China, which contains the wealth that their ancestors looted from all over the world. This is probably the true heritage of the English aristocracy.

Sir opened the door of the warehouse himself. It was not dark and damp inside, and there were no complicated mechanisms.

The group of people walked in according to the direction led by Sir. The inside was quite clean and there was no dust or musty smell. It seemed that someone had tidied and cleaned it regularly and kept it well.

After his eyes adjusted to the light, Shen Guanglin couldn't move away after just one glance.

The first thing that caught his eye was naturally not calligraphy and painting, but a pair of bronze cranes, with simple and lifelike shapes. In addition, there were also bronze dragons and bronze phoenixes. If these were not royal items, Shen Guanglin could take off the heads.

Moreover, it is not an exaggeration to describe this batch of materials as a dazzling array: the three-legged incense burner is probably a Xuande burner; the four-legged tripod is probably a Shang and Zhou tripod.

There are not many porcelains inside, only three or five pieces, and most of the rest are bronzes, and there are even chimes. Shen Guanglin looked at them, and every piece here is a witness to history.

Perhaps, these items are not worth much money, because in later generations, the country prohibited the trading and overseas exhibition of bronzes. However, in Shen's eyes, these are priceless treasures.

It would be amazing if you could collect it in your own museum.

"This is a testimony of your Chinese history. In fact, I have better gifts to give you. Especially after seeing Shen and your beautiful wife, I feel that they are more suitable for you."

Jazz didn't notice the greed in Shen Guanglin's eyes, but walked to a cabinet and opened the door carefully.

Inside the cabinet are two boxes stacked one above the other. From Shen Guanglin's many years of collection experience, it can be seen at a glance that these are the craftsmanship of the Qing Palace Building Office and are made of fine rosewood.

In later generations, a box like this alone would be worth a lot of money, and how many beads could be extracted from it.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, both red sandalwood and huanghuali were the favorite woods of the royal family. During the Ming Dynasty, huanghuali was slightly preferred. By the Kangxi period, huanghuali was almost extinct. Therefore, the Qing palace preferred to use red sandalwood when building furniture. .

These timbers were basically transported from India during the Wanli period.

Jazz took the key and gently opened the copper lock, and slowly opened the box.

Holy shit!

It is filled with jewels and sparkles.

This is not Jin Buyao, this is a golden phoenix crown!

Made of pure gold, inlaid with various pearls, agate, turquoise, sapphire, etc., it looks very luxurious.

There is also a folded page next to the phoenix crown, which probably introduces the origin of the phoenix crown.

This is so rare!

Shen Guanglin picked up the album and read it carefully.

However, after reading the album, Shen Guanglin was no longer calm.

This is the phoenix crown of Empress Tongzhi, that is, Arut, the daughter of Chongqi, the Minister of Household Affairs. This empress died less than a hundred days after Tongzhi's death. She was only 21 years old, which was the age of flowers.

Of course, Tongzhi was even younger and died at the age of 19.

Some people say he died of smallpox, others say he died of syphilis. If it were now, maybe Professor Shen could have saved his life.

According to historical records, Tongzhi had been ill for four or five years and died in 1875. In other words, Queen Arut was probably still a young girl when she died.

The most powerful queen in history was Empress Xiao of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, who married 6 emperors in her life.

She was the empress of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, the concubine of Yu Wenhuaji, the concubine of Dou Jiande, the princess of two generations of Turkic kings, and finally became Zhaorong in the harem of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty.

Well, Zhaorong is good, and he is much higher than the martial arts talents. Above the talents there are beauties, Jieyu, and concubines. Zhaorong ranks second among the concubines, and Zhaoyi ranks first.

This is the phoenix crown of Arut family, so this phoenix crown is unlucky.

Of course, after hearing that this was the auspicious dress of a short-lived queen, Sir also felt that this treasure was not so fragrant.

However, it would still be great if it could be used as a collection of the Shen Guanglin Museum.

Let’s look at calligraphy and painting.

After all, Shen Guanglin was deceived in this name, and Shen also came to the door in this name.

So, Sir, he took out another well-collected painting, Autumn Scenery. What was on the painting was not a poem, but a poem, and the inscription was "Returning Son Wujiu".

Oops, who is the returning son Wu Jiu? Is he a martial arts character?

This involves Shen's blind spot in knowledge.

People are not omnipotent. Unfortunately, in this era, there is no Baidu or smart phones. It is impossible to install one even if you want to.

However, after so many years of exposure to classical literature, he still recognized the words on the painting: Shen:

Farewell to the ordinary, today's white hair is white, and the bamboo rain is rustling.

Not everyone should occupy the world's richest people. Qingfeng is in the hands of lay people, and Yangliu is in Luocheng's waist.

The fame of writing is really a mistake. It will be a good month and a good night from now on.
