American Peak Life

"Well, Lu, the food should be more delicious. Also, it's spicy. I read it before. It tastes better when it's spicy."

A black line suddenly appeared on Lu Ning's forehead, well, maybe for Madeleine, this is the right thing to do.

"Understood." Lu Ning quickly hung up the phone and shook his head depressedly. However, depending on the situation, it was time to go to Xiangjiang. Known as the Pearl of the East.

After taking a shower, Lu Ning leaned against the floor-to-ceiling windows, poured himself a glass of champagne, and watched the night in Shanghai. After 12 o'clock, the city that never sleeps gradually quieted down from the hustle and bustle.

Early the next morning, Lu Ning had a breakfast at the hotel, and then came to the Shanghai Museum in a red flag ca72. During this time, the business of the museum was very hot. It was not considered the prime time of the weekend, but there was already a queue at the entrance. The long queue, it is estimated that this is the upsurge brought by the copper head.

Originally, Lu Ning was going to line up honestly, but he happened to meet Chen Jie who was maintaining order outside. When this guy saw Lu Ning, his eyes lit up. The shock he had given him last night was really big. , Those second generations who are tall and have never seen others in their eyes will also lower their heads.

"Lu Ning, why are you here?" Chen Jie came to Lu Ning with a flattering look on his face. This guy is really a bit nervous. What happened last night, after all, was caused by Chen Jie. In the end, this guy was fine. After one night, he stood in front of Lu Ning like a normal person, acting very naturally.

Tsk tsk, this kind is fine, at least there won't be too much trouble and anxiety. After seeing it, it's just a single-celled organism, an amoeba.

"I'm here to find Deputy Curator Sun." Now that I've met someone I know, there's no need to wait in line. To be honest, there's really nothing interesting about the copper head, at least in name. The master is still himself.

Amidst the discussions among the people in line, Lu Ning was taken directly into the museum by Chen Jie. Well, he became the one who went through the back door again.

When I came to Sun Lan's office, I only saw Sun Lan handling official business with a smile on her face. She seemed to be in a very good mood. Also, since the three bronze heads were exhibited, the museum's ticket revenue has directly doubled, and there are still queues , You know, in the past, this was something that I didn't even dare to think about.

Now Sun Lan feels like she is ten years old, full of energy. As the deputy curator of the Shanghai Museum, she even received calls from others for the first time, and she still went through the back door because she didn't want to wait in line. You know, the usual Shanghai Museum is said to be a Qingshui yamen, and it is definitely not wronged.

In the past, it was to receive group tourists. As for individual tourists, at most they were scattered, with the rhythm of three or two big cats and kittens, or a cutscene during the spring outing of the elementary schools in Shanghai. , who made the Shanghai Museum really have no good exhibits.

But now it’s different, at least, the copper head is also a national treasure. Once the news was released, it attracted a lot of citizens. Moreover, the citizens of Modu also have a hobby, that is, the pavilion is always busy. Where there are many people, they like it. Where to go, the current queuing scene is absolutely unprecedented.

No, it was early in the morning, just after work, and before Sun Lan had time to make a cup of tea for herself, calls from major travel agencies had already been called. Taking advantage of this craze, the travel agencies also included the Shanghai Museum in their travel plans , is also a new line specially opened up.

I am discussing with Sun Lan about the possibility of implementing it. In just one hour, I have already received calls from no less than three travel agencies. I was originally begging for them, but now, overnight, Sun Lan felt that facing the south. The feeling of sitting does not need to be accompanied by a smiling face anymore.

"Well, Mr. Fang, you know that recently, major travel agencies have been negotiating with us. Yes, we have been unable to fully cooperate in terms of time. You must know that some of those tourists are standing in Tongshou There is half a day ahead."

"Yes, yes, we can't make any concessions on the price. We only offered this price because we maintained a good cooperative relationship before. Yes, you can ask if you don't believe me. The price given to you is already the lowest. , some travel agencies have the original price.”

"Of course, Mr. Fang, I wish us a happy cooperation." Lu Ning and Chen Jie have been standing at the door of Sun Lan's office for a while, but it seems that Sun Lan's phone calls will never end, Lu Ning, it's nothing , good upbringing, let Lu Ning wait quietly, in the end, Chen Jie couldn't stand it anymore, coughed lightly, which was a wake-up call for Sun Lan.

Sun Lan raised her head only after being reminded by Chen Jie. When she saw Lu Ning, she quickly gave a smile and gestured for Lu Ning to come in and sit first.

"Well, Mr. Fang, I still have something to do here. Yes, we will talk later." Sun Lan hung up the phone, and put the phone on the phone by the way, so as not to disturb her conversation with Lu Ning later. In Sun Lan's eyes, Lu Ning was much more important than these people, and it was Lu Ning in front of him who brought such earth-shaking changes to the Shanghai Museum.

Chapter 616 Borrower

"Mr. Lu, why are you so interested today? Do you want to come to the museum?" After hanging up the phone, Sun Lan got up quickly, shook hands with Lu Ning, and then poured Lu Ning a glass of water. For good tea, under normal circumstances, even curator Wang Jianping would not be able to drink Sun Lan's tea in a leisurely manner.

"I'm sorry, I'm used to drinking tea, but I didn't prepare some coffee in the office. I will prepare it in advance next time." Sun Lan said to Lu Ning apologetically after pouring the tea.

"It's okay, Director Sun, this tea is very good when you smell it, it's fragrant, it's a rare Dragon Well tea before the rain." Lu Ning got up to finish the teacup, leaned forward to smell it, and then praised.

"Oh, it turns out that Mr. Lu is still a person who understands tea. It's really rare. I'll pack some tea for you and take it home for you to taste." This tea was found by curator Sun from the home of a former leader with great difficulty. Usually, he cherishes it very much, but if the other party is Lu Ning, that's another matter. The three bronze heads brought back by Lu Ning alone are worth Curator Sun's willingness to provide tea to Lu Ning for the rest of his life.

"No, Director Sun, you are being polite. You said that this tea is only liked by the old people in the family. You should know that my uncle and grandpa are also a person who loves tea. When I was in his office last time, I drank it. It’s also Longjing before the rain, to tell you the truth, my great grandfather has two things in his life, one is medical skills, the other is tea, and he can talk to me for a long time when talking about tea scriptures.” When Lu Ning thought of Wang Huaide , there was a smile on his face, needless to say, Wang Huaide really loved Lu Ning.

"Ah, yes, the name of academician Wang's good tea is widely circulated, and I have heard of it." Sun Lan then remembered Lu Ning's uncle, who is also the number one in the Chinese medical field. one.

"Mr. Lu, what is the purpose of your visit today?" Sun Lan chatted with Lu Ning for a few more words, and then got back to the topic. This is also a tradition in Huaguo, first chatting about gossip, and then starting to talk about the topic , unlike European and American countries, who go straight and forth, although they are not procrastinating, but there is always a lack of human touch.

"It's like this, Director Sun, I'm here this time because you are borrowing someone." Lu Ning said with a smile.

"Borrower? Mr. Lu, forgive me for not understanding. It stands to reason that you should have a lot of talents. Most of our people here are dealing with antiques and history. I really don't know how I can help you." Busy?" Director Sun was a little confused, and after thinking for a long time, he didn't realize that Lu Ning came to him to borrow someone.

"Ah, what about professional people, such as Yuxin?" Lu Ning smiled, and started to order directly.

"Huh? I said Lu Ning, what are you doing with Yuxin's idea? Let me tell you, you should not bully your friend's wife." At this time, Sun Lan hadn't answered yet, and Chen Jie on the other side quit. , looked at Lu Ning warily, that really made Lu Ning speechless, well, just ignore this single-celled animal.

"Yes, Mr. Lu, what do you want Yuxin to do? However, I can declare in advance that Yuxin is my key training object, and you must not poach her away." To be honest, Yuxin is in Sun Lan's heart is here, and the focus is on the object of protection. If the other party is someone else, Director Sun has already refused. The problem is that it is Lu Ning who came to borrow someone. Due to affection, Sun Lan has to agree. However, there are words first. , Absolutely can't poach people.

"Yes, curator Sun is right, huh? Wait, curator, what do you mean by that? I'm really going to sell Yuxin." Chen Jie knew Yuxin's status in Sun Lan's mind. , originally thought that Sun Lan would refuse, so before thinking about it, he echoed Sun Lan's words.

In the end, halfway through the agreement, I found that the situation was wrong. Director Sun's statement seemed to be in the rhythm of agreement. Damn it, is this okay?Director Sun, you can't sell Yu Xin just because the other party is Lu Ning.

Chen Jie's words caused Sun Lan to roll her eyes uncontrollably, when am I going to sell Yuxin to Lu Ning, huh, huh, hold back, I don't have much to say to this guy, treat him like air Just be the air, that is to say, Sun Lan already knew Chen Jie's personality, so she didn't care about him.

If you try another leader, make sure to give Chen Jie small shoes to wear. Of course, as a pseudo-rich second generation, Chen Jie really doesn’t care about this salary. The most important thing is to like working here. Just close to Yuxin.

"Okay, okay, Director Sun, I don't want to be a fan. I received news last night that there will be a copper head at Christie's auction in Hong Kong in 10 days. Her professional knowledge can help me distinguish between the real and the fake." Lu Ning stated the purpose directly.

"I thought what was the matter, Mr. Lu, you said it earlier, we must cooperate. If Mr. Lu's money is not in hand, we can also provide support. We haven't returned the 2000 million we prepared last time. ” Hearing that it was for the Tongshou matter, Director Sun didn’t intend to stop it, but his current attitude is very clear, and he will fully cooperate, asking for money for money, and asking for people to give.

"Um, as long as Yu Xin helps to identify it, there is no need for money." Lu Ning is not short of money, and the auction, a mere 2000 million yuan, is really not enough to do anything.

"Okay, Lu Ning, when are you going to leave? I'll give Yuxin a vacation today. Don't worry, our Shanghai Museum will definitely cooperate with your work." Sun Lan said vowedly.

"Wait, curator, I'm going too, I want to ask for leave." At this moment, Chen Jie couldn't hold back his voice again.

"You are going to join in the fun, no." Sun Lan refused without even thinking about it. This guy, when he was in Milan last time, almost broke a big event. This time, no matter what he says, he can't make trouble.

"I'm worried about Yuxin." Chen Jie muttered in a low voice, "I don't care, curator, if you don't let me go, I will resign."

Well, as expected of the amoeba, it actually threatened the leader.

Sun Lan just wanted to get angry, but was interrupted by Lu Ning: "Okay, curator Sun, let Chen Jie follow. This guy is still useful for doing coolies and moving boxes." Lu Ning Ning smiled and said, in fact, Lu Ning was planning to take Chen Jie with him from the beginning, not to mention other things, with this kid around, the journey will not be boring, right?

"Haha, Lu Ning, it's still up to you." Well, Chen Jie's changed face is exactly the same as Husky's, and he changes as soon as he wants to. As soon as Lu Ning said to take him, this guy started wagging his tail.

Chapter 617 The Dahongpao on the Mother Tree

"By the way, Director Sun, I guess you should prepare a few more display cases here." Lu Ning remembered Madeleine's phone call last night, and guessed that the three copper heads of rabbit, snake and chicken should also be safe. .

"Mr. Lu, is there any good news?" Sun Lan's eyes lit up when she heard Lu Ning's words, and she was pleasantly surprised to see Lu Ning's confident appearance.

"If there are no accidents, the three bronze heads of rabbit, snake and chicken should be able to return soon." Lu Ning said with a smile.

"Great, Mr. Lu, this is great news." Curator Sun was overjoyed. In such a short period of time, Lu Ning found three more bronze heads. This is definitely a surprise, and At this moment, Sun Lan is not only fantasizing about being able to collect all the bronze heads of the 12 zodiac signs, but before that, Sun Lan would never have dared to think about it.

"Lu Xian, I will report this news to the curator in a while. He must be very excited. Thank you for your contribution to the motherland."

Afterwards, Lu Ning and Sun Lan discussed the departure time again, and agreed to leave Xiangjiang three days later. Since Lu Ning's Boeing 3-777 needed to go back and forth to the United States, it was responsible for delivering vegetables and copper heads. Lu Ning and others This time, it was worth taking a civil aviation plane, and the arduous task of buying a ticket fell on Chen Jie.

Well, this is the advantage of bringing Chen Jie along. At least, all these jobs can be left to him. The only trouble is that Yuxin does not have a Hong Kong and Macau passport. If she goes to apply for it now, it will take a week to get it approved. However, Sun Lan I have already guaranteed that this is for her, report this matter to the top, and ask Yuxin to apply for a pass in the afternoon, and I should be able to get it tomorrow.

Lu Ning exchanged pleasantries with Sun Lan for a while, and then said his farewell. After coming back for so long, he still hasn't seen Mr. Wang Huaide. If he finds out, he will complain a lot.

I am about to set off for Xiangjiang again. Before leaving, I should at least say hello to Old Prince Wang, otherwise it would be too rude.

Lu Ning left the museum and went to see a few elders. He couldn't be empty-handed, because old men love to drink tea. Lu Ning is not very clear about this aspect, so he went to buy it by himself, not to mention the price. I won't be deceived by others, even if the tea is good or bad, I may not be able to tell the difference. Lu Ning really doesn't have much research on tea.

Thinking of tea, Lu Ning thought of Lan Fei. He remembered that the tea he drank last night was not bad, so Lu Ning called Lan Fei. It was very convenient to buy some good tea from her.
