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

"Okay, we'll discuss it after we get back." Ma Rubin put away the documents and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped and looked back at Lin Ran.

"Do you know where the secret treasure that the treasure hunting party will find is?"

"Ma Lin and his villa were burned down. There should be no items left inside." Lin Ran replied.

"Huh." Ma Rubin hesitated, and finally said slowly: "Fortunately, no fax machine was found among the ashes, but it's not sure whether he sent the production method back to Neon through a letter. .”

...

Lin Ran subconsciously thought of the two missing Li Changle.

Could it be that they detoxified themselves and sent the documents away?

Lin Ran's heart suddenly became cold, and he suddenly had a very uneasy guess.

"Is it possible that Li Changle was taken away as an experimental subject?" With Neon's way of doing things, it is indeed possible to directly arrest people for experiments.

Ma Rubin nodded happily. Lin Ran was a smart man and saved him a lot of trouble.

"It's better to keep your prescription first and don't let others know about it." Ma Rubin turned around and waved his hand, "The fewer people who know about it, the better."

Without him specifically explaining it, Lin Ran didn't intend to let others know about the Green Corpse Poison.

However, if Neon really gets the virus, they will be in big trouble.

Guan Yun laughed from behind and said, "He is really quite impressive."

"It has changed a lot now. It was even worse before." Lin Ran also smiled.

The matter finally came to an end. They accepted the reward from the archaeological team and also received their hospitality.

Because Ma Rubin praised them greatly at the meeting, and Zhao Lijie and they were also brothers who had lived through life and death, Lin Ran and his party became the protagonists of the reception, and everyone came to toast them.

Lin Ran was so drunk that he vomited, but no one in the archaeological team expected that Xu Ning from Inner Mongolia drank them all. The drunk Xu Ning looked like he was still having fun: "Who else? I haven't had enough."

No one from the archaeological team dared to challenge him anymore, even Wang Jinpeng was defeated.

They rested in Cangzhou for a day before driving back to the capital.

Back in the capital, in the next few days, Lin Ran took Yang Jianlong to collect the handicrafts.

Without Ma Lin's protection, and with Ma Rubin fueling the situation, the pawn shop was quickly classified as an illegal operating unit, and their assets and items were seized.

Under Ma Rubin's operation, the antiques were accepted by the archaeological team, and the rest of the handicrafts fell into Lin Ran's pocket.

However, Yang Jianlong felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that he had spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy a lot of handicrafts.

"Godfather, this calligraphy and painting is not the work of a famous artist, why did you buy it?" Yang Jianlong looked at the signature Zha Ying at the back. He is a calligrapher he has never heard of. He is probably not as famous in the capital as his father-in-law.

Lin Ran looked as if he had found a treasure, because Zha Ying's literary works were not well-known in the mainland, but they were talked about in Hong Kong.

However, there are currently many illiterates in mainland China, and many people do not have the habit of reading.

It wasn't until Cha Ying's work was put on the screen that it entered the perspective of mainland audiences.

And unfortunately, Cha Ying died young and passed away just after writing his last martial arts work.

His impromptu calligraphy works were auctioned in Hong Kong City for a high price of 60 yuan.

Mainly fans paid for it. People are still far from realizing the importance of this calligraphy and painting. Ma Lin is well-informed. He bought it at a high price, and now it belongs to Lin Ran.

After working for a few days, I brought all the crafts home.

In his new home, Lin Ran has transformed the second floor of his home into a private museum.

Antiques cannot be put out, especially the several masterpieces in his hands, which are just suitable for displaying handicrafts.

Looking at his simple exhibition hall, Lin Ran felt a sense of satisfaction.

I never thought I could live such a life.

Just when he was feeling complacent, Mother Lin downstairs called him to answer the phone.

"Huh?" Not long after Lin Ran returned to the capital, someone was looking for him again?

Not only did Lin Ran act a little unnatural, but Lin's mother was also not very happy and said, "Xiao Ran, the new home is not yet warm, so don't go out for archaeology."

What came on the phone turned out to be Chen Qi's voice.

"Lin Ran, are you free recently?"

"The auction house has almost been planned. It plans to open before the end of the year. An opening event will be held by then. The plan has been sent to you. Have you received it?" Lin Ran reported the progress of the work in an orderly manner.

Who knew that Chen Qi interrupted him.

"Let's talk about the auction house. If you have time recently, would you like to come to Hong Kong City to have some fun?" Chen Qi said with a smile.

"Port City?" Lin Ran was shocked. The procedures for going to Hong Kong City from the mainland are now complicated.

"That's right, I want to invite you to participate in a treasure appraisal program."

Lin Ran was a little surprised when he heard the news from Chen Qi.

"What kind of treasure appraisal program?" Lin Ran thought to himself, the port city is already so developed.

TV sets have not yet become popular in the mainland, and the [-] o'clock news has not been officially launched, yet Hong Kong City has started to play a treasure appraisal program.

He has also participated in some treasure appraisal columns before. In the Internet age, both collectors and young people like to join in the fun.

"It was jointly organized by Hong Kong City Royal Television and Jiahang Private Museum." Chen Qi said, "Li Jiahang, you should know about it, right?"

Li Jiahang is the richest man in Asia in this era. How could Lin Ran not know his name.

Moreover, he is also the head of a large family in Hong Kong City.

However, the Li family and the Chen family should be mortal enemies. Why would Chen Qi invite Lin Ran to the treasure appraisal conference?Doesn’t it give the other party face?

"If you can participate in the treasure appraisal program organized by Royal Television, you will become famous in the appraisal community in Hong Kong City. This will undoubtedly be of great help to your future development."

In the early 80s, being on TV was a big deal.

Not many people have a TV at home, so being able to appear on a TV show is a great thing for the whole family.

However, this time we are mainly facing the Hong Kong audience.

Lin Ran said: "I don't speak Cantonese very well, so it won't have much impact, right?"

"Haha, what a coincidence. You have to speak English on TV. I heard that your English is good." Chen Qi said with a smile.

"Ha..." Lin Ran was a little speechless, but thinking about it, it was normal in this era.

But in the end, Lin Ran shook his head and rejected his invitation: "Mr. Chen, I don't want to go."

Who knew he would become anxious as soon as he heard this on the phone.

"Why?" Chen Qi asked in surprise, "You know how difficult it is for me to get such an opportunity for you. Royal TV's treasure appraisal program is a regular program with a ratings of more than [-]% in Hong Kong. Go and watch it. , just think of it as making our auction house famous."

"Mr. Chen, I still have a lot of things to deal with in the mainland. How can I have time to go to Hong Kong City to participate in the treasure appraisal program?"
