The Black Card - Chapter 1198
[Chapter 1196 A Crown]
With the knowledge of genetic science that Shi Lei currently possesses, it is actually enough for him to provide guidance to Ding Yu and his group of scientists.
But he didn’t do that.
They just brought the information and data, and the next day they sent someone a result that was even more awesome than what they had been studying for more than ten years. This is obviously nonsense. Even Ding Yu has a deep understanding of the Eye of the Night and knows that This is absolutely impossible.
Shi Lei planned to wait until he could use six more sensory cards next time, and use the knowledge gained from the second genetic science card to sort out enough results for Ding Yu and the others to last for several years before handing them over to him.
In this way, there is a buffer of ten days and a half, although it is still shocking, but with the Eye of the Night taking the blame, it is basically justified.
Moreover, those scientists are also on vacation. If these results are given to Ding Yu, I am afraid that Ding Yu will be eager to enter the next stage of the experiment.
We can’t let those scientists keep spinning like this all the time. They still need to rest.
After leaving Hong Kong Island and returning to Wudong, Shi Lei lived a life of doing nothing.
There are still ten days left before the settlement day, and Shi Lei still has more than 12 million in hand. It’s time for him to think about his problems carefully.
Ten percent of collection consumption does not have to be achieved, but it is still a bit difficult for Shi Lei to spend more than ten million in ten days.
Therefore, it is more reliable to focus on collection consumption.
Shi Lei visited all the places where antiques were bought and sold in Wudong, but he really couldn’t find anything suitable.
Either the value is not high, or it is simply Xibei goods. It is really not easy to find collectibles worth hundreds of millions in the ordinary market.
If not, you still have to ask Yu Banzhi for help. Among the friends around him, except for him who is also an investor in Xianyun Yehe, everyone else is busy and there is really no one who can help him.
Shi Lei drove towards Yu Banzhi’s Yu’s Agarwood House. When he was almost there, his phone rang.
Taking it out, Shi Lei was a little surprised. It turned out to be Director Zhang of the Xicheng Cultural Bureau.
Shi Lei parked the car on the side of the road, picked up the phone, and said politely: “Hello, Director Zhang, this is Shi Lei.” “
Haha, Mr. Shi, I won’t disturb you now, right?”
Shi Lei said hurriedly: “Director Zhang, you are polite. If you have any questions, please tell me.”
In Shi Lei’s opinion, he has almost nothing to do with Director Zhang, that is, the matter of his parents’ house.
After these few days, the old man should have almost finished cleaning up, and it’s time to prepare to hand over the house.
Director Zhang smiled and said, “Where are you now? You are a busy man and I shouldn’t bother you. But Mr. Zheng said that he still hopes that you can help with this matter.”
Shi Lei was slightly stunned. Mr. Zheng was the original owner of that house. It was normal for him to seek help from Shi Lei.
But listening to Director Zhang’s tone, it seemed that this was something that had nothing to do with the house itself.
“I’m in Wudong. I’m pretty busy with all the things I should be busy with. I’ve just been taking a break recently. Director Zhang…oh, Mr. Zheng, if you have something to do, you might as well just tell me.”
“Mr. Zheng wants to entrust it to you. An item, I hope you can help find a suitable buyer…”
Shi Lei raised his brows and knew intuitively that this must be a very valuable item, and it was probably related to antiques. Otherwise, there would be no need to say that it was an entrustment. Such a formal word.
Director Zhang is still saying: “You still have to see this thing in person, and it’s hard to tell over the phone. Originally, Mr. Zheng intended to donate this thing to our cultural department, but this thing is relatively sensitive. Type, private collection is okay, but if it is handed over to the country, it will easily arouse the opinions of its original country…”
Shi Lei thoroughly confirmed that it must be an antique or something, otherwise it would not be so serious.
So he said: “Director Zhang, I probably understand. It’s really hard to talk about this kind of thing on the phone. Let’s go to Xicheng.”
Director Zhang said hurriedly: “That’s not necessary. You don’t have to come to Xicheng.” Cheng, Mr. Zheng and I are now in Wudong. Oh, you probably don’t know yet, right? Mr. Zheng has handed over the house to your parents this morning, and they are already cleaning it up. I also specially sent two A staff member from the Cultural Affairs Bureau went over to assist them to avoid unnecessary damage during the cleaning process.”
“Oh, have you handed over the room today? My parents haven’t told me yet, maybe they are too busy. You guys Since we are in Wudong, it will be easier. I have nothing to do now. Where are you, how about I come over?” “
Then there is Mr. Lao Shi. I just came out of the museum and went to visit you. Mute girl, we are getting ready to go back to the hotel. We are staying at Wudong Hotel.”
“It’s not far from here. You can get there in about twenty minutes.”
“Okay, let’s meet in the hotel lobby.”
Shi Lei hung up the phone and turned around. The car headed straight to Wudong Hotel.
After arriving, he called Director Zhang. Director Zhang said he was about to get off the car. After the two met, they went straight to the elevator.
After Mr. Zheng opened the door for them, he looked slightly excited when he saw Shi Lei.
“Mr. Shi, we meet again.”
Shi Lei smiled and said, “Hello, Mr. Zheng.”
After entering the door and sitting down, Shi Lei said directly: “Mr. Zheng, Director Zhang told me about the general situation. But what exactly is the situation?”
Mr. Zheng stood up, walked to the hotel safe, pressed the password, and took out a small box one foot square from inside.
He placed the box on the coffee table in front of Shi Lei, opened it gently, then took out a piece of velvet cloth and carefully placed the contents inside.
Shi Lei took a closer look and saw that it was a crown, extremely gorgeous and studded with all kinds of gems.
“Mr. Shi, since you are the adopted son of Teacher Chen Ya, you must be familiar with antiques, right?”
Shi Lei did not use the appraisal card, but he could only see from the surface that this crown was valuable, but he did not know the value of this crown. origin.
He smiled and said: “This crown, even if it is not an antique, is already valuable in itself.”
Mr. Zheng looked at Director Zhang, who said: “This crown comes from France, it is Louis Philippe. The crown of power.”
Shi Lei was shocked after hearing this, Louis Philippe, this can be said to be the last emperor in French history.
It was after the Napoleonic Revolution and the short-lived restoration of the Bourbon dynasty. It only existed for a short period of more than thirty years and experienced three generations of emperors.
Louis Philippe overthrew his cousin Charles Philippe and obtained the throne with the help of the bourgeoisie. Since he was originally the Duke of Orleans and he expressed his intention to completely break with the Bourbon dynasty, he even changed the national flag. , so the more than ten years he proclaimed himself emperor were also called the Orleans Dynasty.
His fate was almost the same as that of his cousin, only the overthrow was different.
Seeing that the February Revolution was unstoppable, Louis Philippe fled to England in a hurry.
“When Louis Philippe fled to England, he took his crown with him. He imagined that he would have a chance to make a comeback, so the crown remained in England. In modern times, Britain has brought This crown was returned to the French. However, it was snatched away during transportation, and its whereabouts have been unknown. Two years ago, by chance, I saw this crown. In fact, I understand This kind of antique with great symbolic significance is actually not suitable for collection, but I still bought it by accident.”
