Happy Tycoon

To prove whether the loophole in the guess is true, the method is not complicated. In this time and space, buy an old object that belonged to someone else in the original time and space, and see if the holy ring responds.

And if you want to accurately acquire an old object that belonged to someone else in this time and space, it is actually not so easy to do. At the very least, you have to know who the old object originally belonged to in the original time and space. Where can I find this old object.

If you can't even do these two, how can you buy it?

Of course Yang Jing knew who the owners of many famous antiques were in the original time and space, but where and where these antiques were collected from, Yang Jing was not clear.

But there is one old object that Yang Jing knows, and that is the Arhat Bed with Hundred Treasures Inlaid in the collection of Master Ma in the original time-space Ma Weidu.

In the original time and space, Master Ma is definitely the top figure in private collections in China. His Guanfu Museum is also the leading private museum in China, and the collections in it are shocking.

Among the collections of Master Ma, there are ten collections that are recognized by Master Ma and others as the most precious. One of them is the Ming Dynasty bed with a hundred treasures inlaid with Arhats.

When we mention the bed, we have to talk about the development of bed furniture in China.

The bed has an irreplaceable historical position in the history of China. Almost everyone of us modern people sleeps on a bed when they sleep, so many people may not know that the bed that is necessary for every family now was not available more than two thousand years ago.

That's right, the ancestors of the Chinese people did not sleep on the bed two thousand years ago, but on the ground, because there was no such thing as a bed at that time

It was not until the Han and Tang Dynasties that our ancestors gradually built the bed after hundreds of years, ending the history of sleeping on the ground.

But even if a bed is made, the use of the bed is still very strictly divided. Sleeping at night means sleeping on a canopy bed or a babu bed, and taking a nap, that is, using an arhat bed for a lunch break.

Later, even the emperor's throne was developed from the Arhat bed, which is enough to prove how important the position of the Arhat bed was in Chinese history.

As for Baibao inlay, it refers to selectively inlaying a variety of processed precious materials on the same object, so as to achieve the purpose of highlighting the theme of the composition and strengthening the decorative effect. On the top, add gems, ivory, coral and jade and other materials to form the mosaic process.

Then the arhat bed inlaid with hundreds of treasures refers to this kind of arhat bed inlaid with hundreds of treasures.

In fact, in the Ming Dynasty, the use of Baibao inlaid arhat beds was extremely high. Except for the royal family and the royal family, officials with foreign surnames were strictly prohibited from using them. The reason why Yan Song, the prime minister of Emperor Wanli, was finally ransacked was that one of the most serious crimes was that he had this kind of treasure-embedded arhat bed in his house.

You are already the prime minister, you are already among the top ministers, you are not satisfied, dare to sleep in this kind of bed secretly at home, tell me what you think? Do you want to replace my old Zhu's family in this world? no! Pull it out for me and chop it up!

In the end, Yan Song ended up with his body and head separated.

In the original time and space, in the collection of Master Ma, there is such a bed of arhats inlaid with hundreds of treasures, made of huanghuali wood, which is extremely precious.

And when Master Ma bought this Baibao Embedded Arhat Bed, it was quite legendary.

According to Master Ma’s own account, he accidentally discovered this Baibao Embedded Luohan Bed in the canteen of the hardwood furniture factory in Yanjing. , the workers of the furniture factory sat on it and had lunch. At that time, the soft drawers of the arhat bed were rotten, and there was no room for people to sit on it, so the workers took off the surrounds on three sides and put them on the bed, and then sat on the surrounds to eat.

At that time, Master Ma was just starting to collect. He didn't know this bed, but he thought it was unusual. He wanted to buy it at the time, but when he asked the price, it was several thousand yuan!

Thousands of dollars in the late 1980s was really money, and even Master Ma couldn't afford that much money. However, he told his friend the news, that is, the great director Li Hanxiang from Hong Kong Island, so Director Li spent money to buy this bed, and later transferred it to Master Ma.

This allusion is very well-known in the circle, and Yang Jing has certainly heard of it.

So this time Yang Jing intends to use this Hundred Treasures Inlaid Arhat Bed to prove the loophole in that guess.

There is no such thing as traffic jam in Yanjing these days. Under the leadership of Lao Na, the magnificent Mercedes-Benz arrived at the destination very quickly.

In an era when Jeeps and Soviet saloons and old Shanghai sedans dominated the car market, the buzz a Mercedes could create was huge. The master who watched the gate didn't dare to stop him at all, so he opened the gate and put the car in, and even saluted

The director of the factory saw such a grand Benz parked in front of his office, and a yellow-haired, white-skinned foreigner got out of the car, and immediately ran out of the office in a panic.

Hello, Gude Maoning. Listening to the broken English of the director of the furniture factory, Yang Jing couldn't help but laugh.

Hello, are you the manager here?

As soon as Yang Jing spoke fluent Mandarin, the factory manager was startled immediately, and he laughed quickly: Cough, cough, I'm not a manager, I'm the factory manager here Oh yes, my surname is Wang, May I ask what is your business?

Hello, Director Wang, I'm Michael Lynch from the United States. I like Chinese culture very much, especially those antique furniture. I heard from friends that your factory can make antique furniture here, so I came to have a look. If there are suitable ones, I would like to buy a few to go back.”

Na Yong on the side made up the knife: Director Wang, our boss buys things with foreign exchange certificates.

Upon hearing this, Director Wang's eyes lit up immediately.

The factory he is in charge of has been getting worse and worse in the past few years. There are dozens of people to support, but the sales of furniture are not very good. This makes the factory manager Wang very worried.

Now a foreigner can come to the door in person, and even want to see those antique furniture by name. If this foreigner can like the furniture in his factory, buy it back and recommend it to his friends, if his friends also like it, wouldn’t it be possible for the furniture in the factory to be exported to the United States?

If that's the case, maybe the factory can be brought back to life

Director Wang greeted this foreign friend warmly while thinking happily.

Of course, Yang Jing didn't want to spend time on this kind of pleasantries, so he said directly: Director Wang, can I take a tour of your factory? I want to see the production environment of your factory and the furniture it produces.

Okay, that's no problem, I'll show you the way myself.

In this way, after three turns and two turns, Yang Jing wandered to the canteen in the factory. As soon as Yang Jing entered the gate of the cafeteria, his eyes were attracted by the dilapidated huanghuali bed in the middle of the cafeteria.

As described by the former Master of Space-Time Ma, when he found this bed, the bed was in tatters and there were many dry noodles on it.

Now I found this big bed three or four years earlier than Master Ma found this bed, but this bed is still too tattered to see.

Yang Jing suppressed the excitement in his heart, and quickly stepped forward to look at the big bed carefully.

Yang Jing's actions fell into the eyes of Director Wang, who asked strangely: Mr. Lynch, this bed is already rotten. There are newly-made furniture in it, and the condition is much better than this.

Yang Jing shook his head slightly and said, I just think this bed is quite simple. Director Wang, is this bed old?

Director Wang thought for a while and said: It's been a long time ago. I remember that it was pulled in from the outside when the Fourth Old was broken. However, this bed was a bit broken at that time. Our factory took this bed as a sample. Later, several beds were built based on this bed, but they couldn’t be sold, so this bed was put here by the workers as a stool.”

After a pause, Director Wang continued: If you like this kind of bed, there is another similar bed in the warehouse. They were all pulled into the factory together back then. That bed is much better than this one. But because of this The efficiency of the factory has not been good for two years, so we are going to dismantle the bed, and use the dismantled wood to make other furniture.”

As soon as these words came out, Yang Jing felt that the humanistic aura in the pool of humanistic aura had dropped by about 2%, which made Yang Jing's heart move.

Director Wang, can you please lead me over to see that bed?

On the way to the warehouse, Yang Jing was distracted, and asked Shengjie with his thoughts while walking: Why did the precious qi in the pool of humanistic treasure qi suddenly drop? I didn't use the humanistic treasure qi.

Shengjie replied: Because you have become a foreign nationality, you are no longer a Chinese. Therefore, if you want to acquire old objects that belonged to others in this time and space, it will not cause a time and space paradox. However, because The arhat bed you want to buy already belongs to someone else in later generations, so I will guide you to buy another arhat bed with a hundred treasures inlaid. Of course, this arhat bed with a hundred treasures inlaid did not appear in the original time and space, so you have to buy it For this Arhat bed, the holy ring will consume a certain amount of energy to guide you out of this bed. The energy consumed is the humanistic energy contained in this bed, and if you buy this bed, you cannot absorb the humanistic energy in it Precious.

Yang Jing was taken aback by Sheng Jie's answer, and then he understood what Sheng Jie meant.

It's very simple, the loophole I guessed at the beginning is semi-established. In other words, after becoming a foreigner, traveling through time and space in China and purchasing old objects will indeed not cause a time-space paradox, but if you buy an old object that belongs to someone else, the holy ring will consume energy to guide the second old object Come.

There are many old things in Huaxia that are not unique, just like this bed with a hundred treasures inlaid with arhats, which may be the only one left in the original time and space, but before Master Ma or Director Li bought this bed, no one knew what it was. Not just one. Maybe there is another bed with the same bed, but it has not been taken away.

As the factory manager Wang said, there is another bed in the warehouse, but this bed is being dismantled in the factory.

This is obviously the result of the Holy Ring consuming energy to guide. If I don't show up here at this time, this bed will definitely be dismantled by the factory, and in the end, only the bed in the cafeteria will be left behind, and then Master Ma will take it away.

Now with the guidance of the holy ring, it is avoided that the same bed is removed. In this way, I can not only receive an Arhat bed, but also prevent Master Ma from being unable to purchase the bed in the cafeteria.

In other words, the Holy Ring still does this to avoid the occurrence of space-time paradoxes. It’s just that the holy ring has resisted the paradox of time and space for itself. The way to resist is to spend energy to guide another same old object, and buy this old object by self-help. The original old object will still be left to the owner of the original time and space to buy.

(PS: It's a little hard to understand, but Lao Mo can only explain it this way, everyone, don't be serious.)
