Her mother is Chinese and French, and her father is Chinese. . . . . .

So, it's no wonder that this guy's facial features look a bit strange. Jin Muchen pondered to himself that feelings are still the kind of mixed blood that is popular in society and sought after, but he may not have many foreign blood on his body, so His foreigner features don't seem so obvious.

Jin Muchen continued to look down, but when he saw the following information, he couldn't help but be taken aback, because this guy's work experience is not like what he said. Manager, and this guy's work, if you look closely, it turns out that it is relatively similar to Jin Muchen. This guy used to be in France, and he is actually a guy who buys antiques.

This really made Jin Muchen feel unexpected, this guy used to be an antique buyer?

It seems that Wang Xueming's subordinates are indeed capable people. This Lu Zhiqiang was not a famous person before. His growth and life experience are not particularly public, so it may be very difficult to collect his information, but It took only one day and one night for Wang Xueming's people to investigate Lu Zhiqiang. The most important thing is that they also brought back a very important news.

That is this Lu Zhiqiang, who is actually a particularly famous figure in the history of Chinese cultural relics, a descendant of Lu Qinzhai.

Speaking of this Lu Qinzhai, ordinary Chinese may not know much about him, but people in the antique circle who mention this person will have mixed praise and praise.

Anyone who is well-known, or who loves the world, will say that this person is an amazing person, at least an internationalist, but in the eyes of a real antique player, this guy is a special traitor, yes If a cultural relics dealer is left to the present, he will definitely be caught and shot.

In fact, what he does is quite simple. It is to sell Chinese antiques abroad, and to help those foreigners search for Chinese cultural relics in China for the sake of his own well-being. Speaking of which, it is definitely a betrayal of his ancestors, and he will enter the country even if he dies. Not the crime of the ancestral grave.

But it is such a sinful guy, who was actually boasted by those petty bourgeoisie and public officials as an internationalist, maybe he couldn't find a more suitable name for him, so I gave him the title. Get the name of an internationalist.

And now if you look up this guy's resume on the Internet, it's definitely written very beautifully. For example, he was born in a big family in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Huzhou, and his ancestors used to be dignitaries, but later when the Taiping Rebellion was rioting, it led to the fall of the family. Floating in Puhai Yunyun. . .

In fact, these things are all nonsense. This Lu Qinzhai was originally from a poor family in Huzhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and later, because he couldn't get enough food in his hometown, and he ended up in Puhai.

However, when he arrived in Puhai, he was only a teenager. At that time, he was a second-rate boy. He spent all day hanging out on the streets. Know how to get into a French freighter.

However, at that time, he was too tired to play on the freighter, so he hid in the cargo warehouse and fell asleep, but when he woke up, the freighter had left Puhai and sailed to the sea hundreds of kilometers away.

At that time, there was a kind-hearted French crew member on the ship. He took pity on him, so he took him in to help work on the ship, so he followed the freighter to France.

His first stop in France was Marseille. At that time, France was in the midst of a tea craze for Chinese tea. At that time, there was a tea merchant who was selling tea. I came up with the idea of ​​advertising.

So he let him wear a small cap with melon peel, pigtails, and a Chinese robe. Every day, he wandered in front of his tea shop and advertised. It was precisely because of this experience that Lu Huanwen became fluent in French and English.

It's a pity that this business didn't last for a long time, and soon the craze for Chinese tea was over. The French still like to drink milk tea and sweet drinks, but they don't like that kind of bitter Chinese tea, so Lu Qinzhai lost his job.

In order to eat food, he wandered to Paris again. As a result, he happened to meet Chen Teng, the Chinese minister in France at that time. Chen Teng saw that he was fluent in English and French, and he was very clever, so he hurt him very much. So he was introduced to Zhang Jingjiang, a big antique dealer in China at that time.

This Zhang Jingjiang can be said to be the first noble person in Lu Huanwen's life. It was under him that he changed his name to Lu Qinzhai, and this Zhang Jingjiang, the big guy in kmt at that time, was a close friend of Sun Dapao. At the same time, he was also the sworn brother of Jiang's bald head. At that time, he happened to open an antique shop in Madalina Lu, so he made Lu Qinzhai an apprentice in this antique shop.

And this Lu Qinzhai is indeed smart enough, and soon took root in this antique shop, and under the guidance of the Chinese antique appraisers here, he quickly learned a wealth of antique knowledge.

In addition, this guy is good at speaking, and is proficient in English and French. He soon became the big shopkeeper in this store. After a few years, not only did he accumulate enough experience, he also saved money, and also Accumulated enough contacts.

During this period of time, the situation of changing dynasties happened in China. At that time, the Qing Dynasty was overthrown and the National Government came to power. However, the rule of the National Government has not been very stable. At that time, people in the country were unstable, and there were warlords scuffles year after year. Choking to death, your side sang, and our side came on the stage, and almost every warlord who came to the Forbidden City went back to search for it. At that time, the antiquities and treasures in the shareholders were lost overseas.

This Lu Qinzhai grabbed the first pot of gold in his life here with his own capital, personal connections, and knowledge of antique appraisal.

At that time, he also formed a circle with some antique dealers in Beijing and Puhai, and finally established the notorious cultural relics export company specializing in smuggling and selling Chinese national treasures, the Lu Wu Company.

At that time, he was based in Paris, Uncle Yao was based in New York, Wu Qizhou was based in Puhai, and Zhu Xuzhai was based in Beijing. A few people formed such a circle and began to sell and smuggle the top national treasures in China. The number of cultural relics is unknown. According to the current statistics, the top national treasures lost overseas through their hands are at least thousands of pieces.

At that time, just after the end of World War I, France, the United States, and the United Kingdom, just a few victorious countries, were enjoying the economic prosperity of the golden age. At that time, ordinary people in those countries were rich in their families.

And because of the different currency systems, the exchange rate of China's silver dollar was not very high at that time, while foreign pounds, francs, and dollars were hard currencies in international circulation.

At that time, Chinese antique collection was also popular abroad. After all, antiques costing more than 10,000 silver dollars in China, after exchange rate conversion, in France or the United Kingdom, it is only a few hundred francs and a few hundred pounds, which can be bought by middle-class families. rise.

Therefore, at that time, Chinese antiques, cultural relics with cultural and historical value and low prices, were very popular in France and the United Kingdom.

And Lu Qinzhai relied on this opportunity to grab huge profits here.

At the same time, he also colluded with many large museums in the United States, as well as private collection tycoons.

For example, the founder of the Freer Museum in the United States mentioned earlier, that guy obtained a lot of ancient Chinese paintings from China before the Ming Dynasty through Lu Qinzhai.

And the most infamous thing in Lu Qinzhai's life is that the special organizer of this grandson stole the Zhao Mausoleum of Tang Taizong Li Shimin.

In fact, it was not the tomb that he specially stole. This Zhaoling of Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty was actually stolen many times before Lu Qinzhai started ~www.novelbuddy.com~. The real top treasure, In fact, it has already been dug up.

But even so, there are still exquisite frescoes and stone carvings left in this Zhaoling tomb.

The most famous of these murals and sculptures is the famous Zhaoling Six Horses guarding around Li Shimin's tomb. These six stone carvings are carved with Li Shiming's favorite six horses in his life. These six horses accompany him. The southern and northern wars laid the foundation for the later Tang Dynasty, so that after his death, he had to have the six horses carved and put into his tomb, so that they could accompany him even in the underworld.

And this grandson, at that time, was looking at the little wealth left in Zhaoling, that is, the six horses of Zhaoling. He sent someone to pry these six stone carvings out of Zhaoling, and then in order to avoid customs inspection, They actually let people smash all the six stone carvings and transport them abroad.

Unfortunately, in the end, the conscientious customs officers at that time seized four horses, but two of them, 'Saluzi' and 'Fun Maojing', the two most famous among the six horses of Zhaoling, were still It was successfully stolen and shipped abroad by him, and finally sold by this grandson to the then University of Pennsylvania Museum for $125,000. . .

Just for this grandson, such a deliberate act of reselling cultural relics abroad, no matter what the public know, the petty bourgeoisie, no matter what means they used to clean up this grandson, Jin Muchen would not believe it.

What kind of internationalist, what kind of special, at least he ensured that China's cultural relics were not damaged due to the war, all of which are so fart.

Lao Tzu does not have such a broad international mind, but this grandson has sold all the essence left by the Chinese ancestors. . . (To be continued.)
