Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 387: Master at the end of the Republic of China?Wear it!

In the teahouse, the boss and Mr. Lei were talking happily.

The boss continued to flatter the other party: "Mr. Lei is worthy of being the younger brother of Tang Lanxuan, the curator of the Palace Museum. Zhang admires both his appraisal skills and his mind."

But no matter how much he flattered him and even offered to pay him, Mr. Lei refused to help him with the appraisal.

Regardless, capable people often have some quirks, and the boss can understand them.

At this moment, a young man walked up to the teahouse.

The waiter greeted him with a smile and invited him to sit down.

But he didn't seem to see the store staff and walked straight to their seats.

The boss looked at the young man, thinking he was a fan of Mr. Lei, and said unhappily: "Today's appraisal is over. If you want to appraise something, come back tomorrow."

Lin Ran's face was gloomy, as if he didn't hear what he said.

Suddenly a sneer appeared on his face, he looked at Mr. Lei and said, "Mr. Lei, are you Tang Lanxuan's junior brother? May I ask what level of researcher you are in which institute?"

Outsiders actually don’t understand the division of powers within the Palace Museum.

At least in this era, it is an internal secret.

Lin Ran asked directly, which caught Mr. Lei off guard.

When other people saw him, they basically either flattered him or nodded and bowed to show their goodwill.

This is the first time I have seen someone come up to me and ask about my position.

Mr. Lei didn't want to ruin his reputation, so he forced a smile and said: "I am Tang Lanxuan's junior brother, but I am not a researcher in the museum. I am used to it."

"Haha, a master is a master." The boss took the opportunity to flatter him, then turned to Lin Ran, "Little brother, judging from your tone, are you from the museum?"

Yanjiao is not far from the capital, and occasionally people from the capital museum come here to pick up cultural relics.

However, the boy in front of him was too young to be a researcher at all.

So I can't help but feel contemptuous.

Lin Ran still had a sneer on his lips, which made both the boss and Mr. Lei feel a little unhappy.

Mr. Lei actually felt a little guilty, thinking that Lin Ran was Tang Lanxuan's subordinate. If it was true, then he would have exposed his secret.

But the other party is too young, and I have never heard of such a young researcher in the museum.

Only then did he feel relieved and said with a hint of ridicule: "My little brother is so aggressive. What advice can you give me?"

The boss instantly remembered the person who was yelling downstairs just now, and his face turned dark immediately and asked: "Are you in the same group as that guy just now? Who are you?"

Lin Ran said: "I don't know him, he is just a young man who acts bravely."

Facing the guys who gathered around him, Lin Ran looked very calm.

He continued to ask: "I am also from Beijing. I would like to know which institution the master belongs to? Since he is not from the museum, he should be someone from some treasure appraisal company, right? As far as I know, Director Tang is a master of Beijing University. , his junior brother should not be a nobody."

Mr. Lei stroked his beard proudly and said with a smile: "I neither belong to a museum nor a treasure appraisal business. I am just an honorary professor of the Department of Archeology of Beijing University."

Obviously, he has already thought of his answer to others making things difficult for him.

If the other person is from a museum, claim to be a professor at the university.

And if the other party is from the university, he has another identity, a liar who has been around the world, how can he be fooled by a child.

After hearing his answer, Lin Ran was even more sure that the other party was a liar.

Because, after studying in the Department of Archeology for seven years, he had never heard of an honorary professor named Lei!

But it is true that according to Lin Ran's age, it is impossible for him to go to college.

Mr. Lei deliberately spoke loudly because he planned to develop in Yanjiao during this period and planned to use this incident to build his reputation.

Lin Ran asked: "May I ask where the master usually teaches?"

"Kingjo University, Shuimu University, and even some ordinary schools have also held lectures."

Mr. Lei is indeed a professional liar. Not only does he not blush when telling lies, but he deliberately pretends to be humble.

After hearing this, the people present couldn't help but marvel.

In this era, only a handful of people can go to university, and university professors are even more popular!

I couldn't help but feel happy to be able to sit in the same teahouse with a university professor, drink tea and chat, and have him identify cultural relics.

"May I ask who the master is from?" Lin Ran asked.

As for the teacher's teacher, whenever he mentions it, the teacher's face is full of honor.

Because Tang Lanxuan's teacher Jiang Zhongyi was a master who began to study history during the Republic of China and participated in the excavation of imperial tombs in the capital. Tang Lanxuan inherited most of his knowledge from Jiang Zhongyi.

Mr. Lei stroked his beard and stared at Lin Ran with a pair of alert eyes.

In fact, he was a little flustered at this time and felt very strange. Someone called him a liar downstairs before, and the teahouse owner drove that person away.

The young man in front of him asked about his identity. The teahouse owner expressed his objection at the beginning, but now he has been silent. What's going on?

He thought for a while, pretending to be sad and said: "I studied under Mr. Ruyin, and participated in many mining projects of Stone Age tombs, but now he is no longer here."

"I also have a senior brother named Tang Lanxuan, who is now the director of the Palace Museum. From the tone of my friend, it seems that you know him?"

Mr. Lei really couldn't make it up anymore, so he pretended to be careless, but in fact he threw the question back to Lin Ran.

Let him investigate the origins of this gentleman himself.

There were some people he invited around. After being prompted by Mr. Lei's eyes, they all stood up and said.

"Kid, don't cause trouble here, get out of here!"

"Mr. Lei is highly respected, is it your turn to question him?"

"Where are you from? Are you still weaned?"

The words they mocked became more vulgar, and even some tea drinkers who didn't know the truth accused Lin Ran of not learning well at a young age and trying to show off.

After hearing his answer just now, Lin Ran was sure of the answer.

He sneered and said to Mr. Lei: "You are an expert and a charlatan!"

The teahouse suddenly became quiet.

The tranquility was broken only when the tea bowl in the hands of the waiter who served tea fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

His words undoubtedly caused an uproar, and everyone was in an uproar.

Mr. Lei's face was ugly. When he saw that the teahouse owner didn't take action, he made a show of his face to his subordinates.

Several passers-by who had made taunting remarks just now wanted to take him out.

The teahouse owner suddenly stood up and stopped them.

He walked up to Lin Ran, helped him straighten his collar, and said in a lukewarm tone: "Little brother, you must speak responsibly."

"Of course I will be responsible." Lin Ran replied.

The teahouse owner smiled and said to Mr. Lei: "Okay, since the two of them accuse each other of being liars, Zhang will act as an intermediary and the teahouse will serve as a defense platform. I want to hear your testimony."

The boss is indeed a businessman.

As he made this suggestion, the surrounding customers also refilled their glasses one after another.

It is people’s eternal nature to eat melons and watch the excitement!
