Chapter 109 The Follow-up of the Empress

When Xu You came closer, he saw five scrolls of bamboo slips laying in a wooden box in an unconventional order.

This box is also very special. Although the outside is made of very hard iron wood, the inside is indeed very luxurious golden nanmu, and it should be a wooden box hollowed out from a whole tree trunk. There is a little stitching on the whole box. nothing.

A golden nanmu about 1000 centimeters wide is said to be a rare thing even [-] years ago.

The bamboo slips are about fifty centimeters long, and the color has begun to change from red to black.

Xu You carefully took a roll of bamboo slips into his hand, opened them carefully, saw the writing on it, and quickly took a picture of it with a camera, planning to go back and see if Mr. Guo recognized the writing on it.

After taking the photos, Xu You put the bamboo slips back, and then carefully covered the box to minimize the contact between the bamboo slips and the air.

Several people worked hard until noon the next day before transporting all eighteen boxes back to the ship. When everyone returned to San Francisco in the evening, special personnel transported the boxes away, and found one before they arrived. A vault for preservation.

After that, Xu You and Chen Zhibei officially lived a happy two-person world.

The two had a hard time in the United States. In Las Vegas, the two went to a photo studio and took a set of wedding photos.

The seven sets of costumes span Asia, the United States, Europe, ancient times, modern times, modern times, and future times, taking care of all time and space.

And when the two returned to China, Xu You had already gained a very high reputation in a small circle.

Before Xu Wei went abroad, he handed over a thesis on Tocharian to Mr. Guo as his semester assignment.

Xu Er didn't take it seriously either, he just regarded this thesis as a by-product produced when he was learning Tocharian.

Later, as soon as I went abroad, I encountered an air crash. It took a lot of effort not to be left as a savage on the deserted island. As a result, I went to hunt for treasure again within a few days.

In fact, if Xu Wei hadn't told Mr. Guo that he found two stone tablets written in Tocharian on a deserted island, Mr. Guo would have called him back long ago.

The cause was the paper that Xu Er handed over to Mr. Guo.

In Xu Wei's thesis, he corrected a grammar that had been considered correct by the industry before. The correction of this grammar indicates that the bottleneck of many previous researches will be broken.

Xu Wei didn't pay attention to this, but thought that this grammar would allow him to write a very good paper.

When Xu Wei was killed, Mr. Guo thought that whether Xu Wei could be rescued or not, this paper was the brainchild of Xu Wei.

With a very sad mood, Mr. Guo sent the paper to Mr. Ji who had been spending time studying Tocharian in Kyoto. He hoped that Mr. Ji could help correct it. If there is no problem, he would publish this paper in a professional journal posted above.

The result naturally made Boss Ji very happy. Within two days, the manuscript was translated into German and mailed to a very authoritative magazine in Germany.

After more than half a month of review and demonstration, Xu Wei's paper was published on a very popular section of this journal.

Therefore, Xu Er is not only famous, but in a sense, it can even be said to be world famous.

However, this world is very small, and there are definitely no more than fifty people.

Although there were only fifty people, almost all of these people sent a letter to Xu Er, mainly to discuss his discovery with Xu Er, and then to welcome Xu Er to their big family.

Well, there are only less than fifty like-minded people in the whole world, there is really no need to intrigue, fight and kill, in short, it is very harmonious.

Xu Er has a new hobby this time, making pen pals.

It took more than ten days to reply each letter carefully, and then list all the problems I encountered during the research, and a few more authoritative old professors, There was a discussion.

Mailing based on letters is really inconvenient. Chen Zhibei equipped Xu Er with a computer, put it in the study at home, and taught Xu Er how to use the computer.

Computers are definitely not new gadgets. Xu You has seen many in the computer room of the university campus. Xu You can even type Wubi, but Xu You has never touched such things as sending emails and surfing the Internet.

After a period of time, Xu You was like a child who found a new toy. He used the computer almost every day, or sent emails, or surfed the Internet to browse some information about antiques.

But within a few days, Xu You felt bored, and then resumed his previous habits of writing and playing the violin. The computer was only used occasionally.

Afterwards, the computer became something that Chen Zhibei often used, either to look at the stock market, or to send emails to sort things out.

Xu Wei's paper on the grammar of Tocharian fish opened up new ideas for many scholars who specialize in Tocharian after it was published. With rapid development, in just two months, several groundbreaking papers on the Tocharian language emerged.

Afterwards, Xu You donated the Tocharian stele he discovered to his Department of Languages, Shanghai University, where he was studying as a graduate student. For this reason, the school held a special handover ceremony for Xu You In between, he became a man of the hour in the school.

However, these have nothing to do with Xu Wei, the most important thing for him now is to study the five scrolls of bamboo slips.

Since the bamboo slips had to minimize their contact with the air, Xu You didn't open the box afterwards, for fear that the bamboo slips inside would be thought to be negligent and suffer any damage.

The photos I found when I found the bamboo slips were washed out by Xu Wei, and I handed them over to Mr. Guo and Mr. Zhang, and asked the two old people for advice.

After all, I only have a rough understanding of the texts of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, so it is still impossible to translate the words above.

Although Xu You didn't dare to take out the bamboo slips, Xu You could still lean on the box for a short rest.

Seven or eight very chaotic dreams appeared in Xu You's mind in no order.

In the dream, Xu You saw many people, almost all of whom were the previous owners of the box.

The images of these people are very vague, and they can only roughly see the clothing on each other, and even the background is blurred.

Although they couldn't see their faces clearly, Xu You could still feel that most of the owners of these people were scholars, or scholars, great Confucians, etc., and some of them still had a very strong aura of superiors.

Judging from the costumes, the earliest owner was around the Qin and Han Dynasties, and he seemed to be a very prestigious middle-aged man.

However, its last owner was a Japanese.

Xu Wei guessed from his conversations with others that this Dongying man should be an envoy sent to the Tang Dynasty. During his stay in Chang'an, he got this box by accident. When he opened it, he found that it was a very precious bamboo slip. , transported the things back to Dongpu, but encountered a tornado, which made Xu Wei cheaper.

Although Xu You has not figured out what is written on the bamboo slips until now, he has figured out why the bamboo slips appeared on the boat.

Can't the people on the other side of the sea calm down a bit?But it doesn't matter, anyway, no matter how hard it is, things still return to Huaxia.

After Xu You returned to China, he entrusted Wang Shuai to buy a large cemetery, and buried the shipwrecked crew members on Huaxia's land, fulfilling a last wish for them.

As for the silks that were no longer Chengdu satin, Xu Er donated them to the museum through Mr. Chen, and got a small red flag, which was hung in the studio in the basement. It looked quite fulfilling.

Mr. Zhang has more than a dozen of such little red flags, and Mr. Chen also has quite a few. They put a whole box.

Compared with such old seniors, Xu You looked at the two small red flags on the wall of his house, and felt that he had a long way to go, and he needed to continue to work hard to be on par with the seniors.

Tang Qingyan's special auction of Tang Dynasty treasures was scheduled for autumn, and Xu Wei's seven-faced Tang mirror, a set of tea sets, a set of wine sets, and the eighteen golden arhats were added, and a few more good ones were added. Tang Dynasty antiques, held a special auction, and promoted it throughout Asia, which attracted some rich believers from home and abroad.

On the same day, Xu Wei saw that there were almost no absentees in the venue, only to realize that there were really a lot of rich people.

Hearing Xu Wei's emotion, Tang Qingyan sneered, "Where is this? You have never seen the auctions of those major international auction houses. Calling out one can shake the world economy. People like us, we have some influence in Asia, but many top rich people still won't come to us, and the grades are still not up."

Speaking of this, Tang Qingyan's voice contained a very obvious unwillingness, as well as the unique drive of young people, "It will take a few years, just watch, you three and I will be able to gain a foothold in Asia's top auctions , when the time comes, most of the people here will no longer be eligible to participate in the auction I held."

"I believe that the third brother is the most powerful, there must be no problem." Seeing Tang Qingyan's mood was a bit wrong, Xu Wei quickly comforted him.

Tang Qingyan sorted out his thoughts, "But don't worry, although those top rich people didn't come, there are a few of them that are specially raised by others. As long as the things match the eye, the auction price will not be low."

Xu You nodded, expressing his understanding, how much money can be auctioned this time, Xu You’s claim that he doesn’t care is a lie. Although the results of Chen Zhibei’s biological research laboratory have been produced, they have not yet been put into production. Although the real estate company makes money, but But part of the profit was transferred by Chen Zhibei to biological research, and the family still didn't have much money. In order to deal with emergencies, Xu Er felt that he should save more money at home for emergencies.

Just when Xu You was thinking wildly, all the people in the venue were seated, and a beautiful woman with outstanding temperament and enchanting figure walked up to the booth. She walked up to the auction booth with a charming smile on her lips.

"That's our gold medal auctioneer. As long as she gets involved, you can buy anything at a price beyond your budget."

Tang Qingyan proudly introduced his outstanding employees to Xu Wei, "Of course, this woman is desperate for money, and the commission is very high every time. If it weren't for my good personality, I wouldn't be able to stand her long ago."

Xu You looked at Tang Qingyan suspiciously, it was the first time he saw him showing such intense emotions towards a person.

"You know her very well?"

"College juniors were famous for asking for money back then, and now it's even worse." Tang Qingyan said viciously.

"Oh."

Xu You looked at Tang Qingyan with a very teasing look, then turned back silently and ignored him.
