Bind to the collection system, I became a national treasure

Imperial Capital, Daxing Airport.

After hearing Lu An's news about the four treasures of the study required for Task 1, Bai Xi asked Xiao Rui to arrange the itinerary.

After getting off the business class plane, Bai Xi walked out of the airport surrounded by bodyguards and Xiao Rui. As soon as he arrived at the exit, he saw Lu An, who had arrived in Dijing a day earlier.

Lu An looked at the several bodyguards beside Bai Xi who looked no ordinary, and Xiao Rui who was following behind her and had the temperament of a handsome young man, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

In just one week, Bai Xi has transformed from a rustic girl when she first met Van Cleef & Arpels into the rich girl she is now with an aura of wealth. Is the change too big, or is this her true self and she was just pretending before?

After the auction, Lu An also tried to check Bai Xi's background. He found out that his father was a worker and his mother was a self-employed person. It was unbelievable. After all, all this was too inconsistent with Bai Xi's extravagant spending. It could only be said that the waters were too deep. He could only find out the surface information. But because of this, he valued his relationship with Bai Xi even more.

Lu An's mind raced as he saw Bai Xi walking towards him, and he quickly went to meet him:

"I haven't seen you for a few days, but Miss Bai's aura remains the same."

"I'll take that as a compliment. Now that the matter is taken care of, do you need anything else from me?"

"Thank you for the information, Miss Bai. I have already dealt with it. I'm ashamed to say that family disgrace should not be made public. I can't say anything else."

"Oh, that's fine. I was just asking. Let's go."

"Okay, everyone please follow me, my car will lead the way."

Bai Xi originally wanted to eat some melons, but Lu An directly blocked her idea. Feeling that it was boring, she went straight to the point. Lu An was also very considerate and arranged several Alpha nanny cars for Bai Xi and her group in the parking lot. After Bai Xi got in the car, he led the way and drove out of the airport to the destination.

......

after an hour.

The car slowly stopped, and Bai Xi, who was catching up on her sleep, was gently awakened by Xiao Rui. She rubbed her eyes and got out of the car.

In front of me is a typical three-courtyard courtyard with a mahogany door and an antique bronze ring. Above the door is a plaque made of huanghuali wood with four large characters written on it.

"Qingwen Book Studio."

Bai Xi read out the words softly. As for why she knew the plaque was made of huanghuali wood, please look at Dr. Xiao from Shuimu University who was introducing it in a low voice beside her.

"Boom~boom~boom~"

Lu An gestured, then took the lead and walked forward to knock on the door.

About half a minute later, footsteps were heard from behind the door, and the old mahogany door was slowly opened.

"Hello, is this Mr. Lu?"

The woman who came to open the door was about thirty years old, wearing a Chinese cheongsam, with her hair tied up. She exuded a classical and gentle temperament, and it was obvious that she came from a scholarly family.

"I'm Lu An, and this is Bai Xi, Miss Bai. She made an appointment with Mr. Zheng in advance."

In response to the woman's question, Lu An opened his mouth to answer, and at the same time made a gesture of invitation to Bai Xi, indicating who was the protagonist today.

"Mr. Lu, Miss Bai, please come in."

After confirming their identities, the woman performed an ancient ritual, then stepped aside and welcomed Lu Yuan, Bai Xi and his group in.

"Captain Cao, just wait for me outside. Xiao Rui, come in with me."

Bai Xi looked at his group, ordered the bodyguards to stay outside the door, and went in with Xiao Rui. Cao Zhengguo nodded and spread out security around the courtyard.

As you step into the gate, you will be greeted by a mountain screen wall with intricate carvings and a magnificent appearance. Behind the screen wall is a hanging flower gate with lotus carvings.

After passing through the hanging flower gate, Bai Xi's eyes suddenly brightened. In the courtyard was a huge ginkgo tree with lush branches and leaves. Sunlight shone through the gaps, casting layers of light spots, adding a bit of vitality to the entire courtyard. Around the ginkgo tree, the owner also planted many flowers and plants, especially orchids, which were lush and green and looked very pleasing to the eye.

Bai Xi nodded secretly and decided to build one herself if she had the chance. Although Tan Gong No. 1 was very good, she still preferred this kind of Chinese aesthetic building.

Following the cheongsam woman, Bai Xi and his group quickly walked into the main room behind the courtyard. An old man was sitting on the main chair, drinking tea.

"Grandpa, Miss Bai is here."

After the cheongsam-wearing woman entered the room, she shouted at the old man.

"Nannan, serve tea to these distinguished guests." The old man on the armchair slowly stood up and instructed the woman in the cheongsam. Then he thought of Bai Xi and her group and walked over. "I didn't expect that Miss Bai, so young, would also be interested in the four treasures of the study?"

"I have loved the traditional culture of the Xia Kingdom since I was young. When I was little, I often visited museums. Now that I have the opportunity, I also want to collect some cultural relics myself. After all, this is our root."

Bai Xi responded to the old man's questions seriously with a sincere look on his face.

"That's great. Young people nowadays are attracted to foreign aesthetics, but they don't know that the things passed down by our ancestors are the most precious.

Lu family boy, you finally did something humane."

Zheng Youfu sighed, and his eyes softened when he looked at Bai Xi. He mentioned Lu An neither lightly nor harshly. It was obvious that Lu An had come to him many times to steal things before.

Lu An smiled awkwardly. He couldn't afford to offend this old man, so he could only bow his head and nod repeatedly. Bai Xi followed Zheng Youfu to the reception area. The woman in cheongsam had already brewed fragrant tea, so they drank tea and exchanged a few words.

After Guan Gong patrolled the city twice, Bai Xi put down his teacup. "Mr. Zheng, I've heard that you're a master calligrapher yourself, and many of your collection of four treasures of the study are truly unique in the country. I wonder if this junior could have the opportunity to appreciate a few?"

"Haha, you little girl, you are so anxious..."

"Well, let's just watch and talk."

Zheng Youfu laughed twice, then slowly stood up with the help of his granddaughter. "Lu, you told me what you might want. I guess the collections you like are all in the east wing. Shall we go take a look?"

"Good Le!"

Bai Xi and his group hurriedly followed, step by step.

......

Compared with the main hall, the layout of the east wing is simpler. Looking around, there are independent glass display cabinets everywhere. Pens, ink, paper, and inkstones are divided into four areas. Under the illumination of soft lights, each of them exudes an ancient, charming and unique brilliance.

Such a scene shocked not only Bai Xi and Xiao Rui, but also Lu An, who came in for the first time.

"Mr. Zheng, this is really not nice of you. You have so many good things, but you're hiding them from me?"

Lu An took a quick look around and discovered that there were even a few items here that were good enough to be the highlight of the auction, and he suddenly became anxious.

"You know shit! If I give it to you, you'll just sell it at an auction. If you want the old man's collection, you'll have to have a good eye for it!"

Facing Lu An's dissatisfaction, Zheng Youfu cursed him with a fierce look, then turned to Bai Xi with a smile.

"Come on, girl Bai, I'll show you..."
