Chapter 79 Tracking Fossils
Chapter 79 Tracking Fossils
The hotel checks were very strict. Fortunately, Wang Dong had the information given by Jiang Yuqing, prepared a full set of documents early, and easily passed the hotel registration.
Stayed in a small hotel for one night, Wang Dong got up the next day, put on his suit and leather shoes, and asked Xiao Er about the locations of several relatively large pawnshops nearby.
Wang Dong now only has a tube of silver dollars and a small wad of banknotes that he brought with him when he crossed, which is naturally not enough for his plan, so he decided to pawn off some of the things he brought.
After walking along the route that Xiao Er said for a while, Wang Dong soon saw a pawnshop with a rather dignified appearance on the side of the road. The owner of the pawnshop saw a handsome young man in a suit and leather shoes walking into the shop. He got up quickly and asked, "Sir, is it Treating things or buying things?"
Wang Dong took out a watch from the ring and said, "How much is my Swiss watch worth?"
The mechanical watch that Wang Dong asked Chen Chunsheng to get was a decent high-quality imitation, which was fake or not, and he deliberately chose a coquettish one. The dial was gaudy, and it was imitation mica and ruby. I saw the delicate tourbillon inside rotating constantly.
The pawnshop owner was surprised when he saw it, "Wow, this little watch is really beautiful."
These years are in turmoil, and many people can't live on. They often pawn some gold and silver jewelry for a little money. The watch produced was exquisite and unusual, and it would not be too cheap. After thinking about it, he offered the price: "It's the same price, 30 yuan."
Wang Dong said with an angry expression: "Who are you lying to? My old man brought it back from England. He said that he spent more than 100 pounds in the British shop."
The boss was taken aback. One hundred pounds could be exchanged for more than 1000 Guangyang. In this turbulent year, this amount of money was enough to buy two courtyard houses in Beijing.
He was really uncertain about such a large amount, so he said: "Sir, how can you sell things back to their original price these days? If you want to sell them here, I will pay you 60 yuan. If it is higher, you can go to a big shop." Just ask."
Wang Dong has ten watches in his hand, and they haven't opened yet today, so naturally he won't look for other ways.After a stretch, the boss finally gave 120 yuan, which is equivalent to the annual living expenses of an ordinary family these days. Wang Dong felt that the price was about the same, so he pretended to be unlucky and said, "If I hadn't been in a hurry to go Ballroom, this watch must not be sold to you so cheaply, my old man would be so pissed off when he found out."
The boss thought to himself: "So he's a prodigal..." Smiling inwardly, he asked, "Sir, is the debt dead or alive? The dead debt will pay the full amount, and the alive debt can be redeemed within [-] days, and you have to pay [-]% of the interest."
120 yuan is charged with three-point interest, and a total of three yuan will be deducted. This means that the price Chen Chunsheng gave Wang Dong is only a little over three hundred, and a piece of Yuan Datou will basically cost around one thousand in later generations. It's worth three thousand, so of course Wang Dong wouldn't do this money-losing business.
He pretended to be impatient and said, "Death is death, what is there to redeem?"
The boss was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly issued an invoice to pay.
Wang Dong left the pawnshop with more than 100 silver dollars, turned around and called a rickshaw, and immediately went to the second big pawnshop nearby.
One morning, Wang Dongman ran around the east city, sold three watches, and earned nearly four hundred oceans.
Wang Dong went to the store to buy a leather package for these things, and then went back to the hotel by car.
The mission lasted for two months, and Wang Dong had a bag of Guangyang, so he could live comfortably this time through the trip.
For the next period of time, Wang Dong stayed in the hotel, went to Xiehe Hospital every morning to see if there was any situation, and wandered around the capital in the afternoon, picking up mission attribute points, or buying some newspapers and magazines to understand the current situation.
The government of the Republic of China began planning the transportation of Peking Man fossils to the United States in 1940, but the notes had been going back and forth between Beiping and Chongqing, and it was only in November 1941 that Chang Kaishen approved the implementation. The efficiency of this work is a headache. .
Not long after the real start of transportation, the Pearl Harbor incident broke out on December 1941, 12. Japan and the United States officially went to war, and the fossils were no longer found.
Now Wang Dong can only wait slowly. He stayed in the capital for seven or eight days. Although the newspapers all over the city are basically the propaganda tone of the Japanese puppets, Wang Dong can still detect from the details of the articles. With the development of the situation, the smell of gunpowder between the United States and Japan has become more and more intense.
A few days later, when the pseudo-policemen in this area began to doubt the identity of the young master who was wandering around the streets in a suit all day long, this morning, Wang Dong, who wandered to the back door of Union Medical College, finally saw a A large group of American soldiers was supervising the transfer of the coolies to the trucks one by one.
Watching the U.S. military trucks escort boxes of things away, Wang Dong was not sure if those things were fossils of Pekingese.
So he sat down at the bean juice stand on the side, and stared for a while, until he saw a scholar in his thirties coming out with a box. Looking at the person's appearance, before coming here, Wang Dong had read a lot of materials and memorized a lot of photos. Wang Dong vaguely recognized that the scholar was Pei Wenzhong, the paleontologist who led the Zhoukoudian excavation in China, so he could confirm the contents of those boxes. It is the fossil of Peking Man.
He hurriedly got up and went back to the hotel, went out with his suitcase, called a rickshaw, and went straight to the Qianmen Station.
Although there are other rumors about the transportation method of Peking man fossils, Wang Dongzhi knew after investigating this time that the world was so chaotic these days, and there were bandits even within a mile of the capital city wall. There is simply no other reliable road to go but the railroad.
When he arrived at Qianmen Station, Wang Dong saw that the American truck had already driven into the unloading yard. Wang Dong paid for the truck and went straight to the ticket gate with his leather bag.
"Do you have a ticket to Qinhuangdao?"
People who can be conductors during the Japanese puppet period seem to have something to do with it.
The conductor glanced at him, continued to lower his head to do his own business, and said with a sulky face, "There are several stops in the middle, how can I get there directly?"
After Wang Dong asked, he found out that it is really not easy to take a train these days. From Beiping to Qinhuangdao, it takes three or four times to change trains and transfer stations. It is impossible to go direct.
Wang Dong suddenly became confused. The information only said that the Americans transported the fossils of the Peking Man to Qinhuangdao to go to sea, but he didn't even know whether the fossils arrived in Qinhuangdao, and it was even more unclear what happened along the way.
And the U.S. military will not wait for him on the road. If Wang Dong changes cars all the way, even if he arrives at Qinhuangdao, he will have no place to look for fossils at that time.
[Mission Option [-]: Choose to take an ordinary train to Qinhuangdao—Option Reward: Intermediate Gun Fighting Technique (Level [-])]
[Mission Option 1: Find a way to go to Qinhuangdao in a US military vehicle—option reward: random basic attribute points +[-]]
The reward suddenly appeared. Wang Dong couldn't help but glance in the direction of the warehouse, then picked up his bag and walked towards the warehouse.
