    "Mr. Wang Tian, ??if you are not willing to sell them to me, I have two Chinese treasures in my hand. I wonder if you are interested in exchanging them?" Wang Tian's ears perked up and he became interested.  Because when he came to Paris this time, in addition to learning the exquisite French sculpture skills, Wang Tian also wanted to see Western treasures. Furthermore, if there are Chinese treasures lost here, he would do his part in patriotism and return them to the motherland.  is a better choice.  Wang Tianjin said.  "Mr. Beckhadon, if your treasure can satisfy me, I might as well exchange it for it. But you also know that the status of the Old Testament in the minds of your Western countries makes it difficult for ordinary treasures to come into my eyes." Wang  Of course Tian had to put on a high profile, because at the moment it was Beck Hatton who was completely begging for him.  Naturally, after seeing Wang Tian¡¯s appreciation skills, Beckhadon no longer dared to look down on Wang Tian.  He said with a smile.  "My treasure was bought from the Palace of Fontainebleau, so it is naturally worth a lot of money. You should know our Palace of Fontainebleau in France, right?" Wang Tian really knows the Palace of Fontainebleau, because it is very important to the Chinese nation.  , closely related to a period of history.  In 1860, the British and French forces invaded China. All the treasures stolen by the British were sent to the British Museum, while all the treasures looted by the French went to the Palace of Fontainebleau.  Speaking of the Palace of Fontainebleau, there are more than 30,000 Chinese treasures hidden in it, including famous paintings from past dynasties, gold and jade jewelry, porcelain, incense burners, bells, precious stones, gold and silverware.  Wang Tian¡¯s expression was obviously much heavier, for a Western country.  They all regarded that invasion as glory and showed off this glory without any sign of remorse.  And the treasure hidden in the Palace of Fontainebleau.  Why can't it be said that it came from their banditry, but now they can openly say that I will change with you.  Seeing that Wang Tian was silent, Baker said, "What? Could it be that Mr. Wang Tian, ??you don't know the Palace of Fontainebleau?" Baker Hatton felt that Wang Tian had never traveled far and didn't know much about France.  Wang Tian came back to his senses and smiled lightly.  "No. The Palace of Fontainebleau is the largest palace in your country. It was the place where kings hunted in ancient times. It also has the largest collection and exhibition of treasures from the Old Summer Palace in our country. Among them, our China Pavilion can be said to be the reappearance of the Old Summer Palace in the West. I  How could I not know?" "Thank you for your country's admiration for our country's culture and for recreating such an imperial garden." Wang Tian's words were somewhat sarcastic, but Beckhadon couldn't hear it at all.  He laughed and said.  "No need to thank you. Nowadays, culture knows no boundaries. We also think that Chinese gardens are extremely magnificent and impressive, so we recreated a majestic Chinese Pavilion." "Okay, let's get to the point now. I'm willing to take out the  I have exchanged two treasures for your Old Testament. Would you like to take a look at it with me? " "I will, of course. " " You will probably miss the exhibition at the Louvre that afternoon?  Not our outstanding sculptures in Paris?" sighs Beckhadon.  "It doesn't matter, there will be more opportunities in the future, right!" Beck Hatton's villa is by the Seine River, with a pasture in front of it.  There were several cows running in the pasture, and a woman was doing handiwork.  It seems that it is very leisurely here.  When the car stopped under a villa and the iron gate was pushed open, two children rushed towards Beckhadon and called his father.  Then, a beautiful woman looked downstairs and smiled like an angel when she saw her husband.  "Hatton, are you back?" "Yes, I still have guests, prepare two cups of draft beer for me." "Okay." Wang Tian politely responded to the woman, then looked at Baker Hatton, "Mr. Baker,  You can drink beer for a while. We Chinese won¡¯t lose to you in drinking, but I think we should take a look at your baby first.¡± ¡°Oh, okay, please come with me.¡± Beck Hatton is always being fucked.  Surrounded by children, Wang Tian was brought to one of his collection rooms.  As expected, there are many treasures in this collection room, not only Chinese treasures, but also treasures from other Asian countries. There are some oil paintings that Wang Tian recognized as Indian works, with rich brushwork and brilliant colors.  There are more sculptures, there are more ivory carvings, and some wood carvings and jade wares. The ancient books of unknown dynasties stacked at the top came into Wang Tian's field of vision at this moment.  Speaking of classics, the classics that China lost overseas that record many historical facts of that year are actually very important. The lack of some historical classics in China also makes it difficult for future generations to study ancient culture.  Wang Tian slowlyCloser, Beckhadon spoke first with a smile.  "Your eyes are really bright. The first treasure I want to exchange with you is this tome. The Yongdong Canon." The Yongdong Canon is a misunderstanding of Beckhadon. In fact, the book he is talking about is not the Yongdong Canon. The above  The word is Yongle.  The Yongle Dadian was compiled during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. It is an unrivaled collection of Chinese classics compiled by Xie Jin, the chief minister of the cabinet. It brings together seven or eight thousand ancient and modern books, showing the glorious achievements of ancient Han culture.  It¡¯s just that such a famous Yongle Grand Ceremony was called the Yongdong Grand Ceremony by Beck Hatton. The key point is that it is placed here, covered with dust. At a glance, it is obvious that it has not received the attention it deserves.  It is not an exaggeration to say that natural resources are wasted.  Wang Tian was heartbroken on the one hand.  However, as far as Wang Tian knows, except for the original Yongle Dadian, which has not been confirmed to exist in Yongling, the copies have suffered a catastrophe. Most of them were destroyed when the British and French allied forces burned the Old Summer Palace. Today, less than 800 volumes exist.  But the Yongle Ceremony that appeared in front of Wang Tian seemed to indicate that the fire caused by the British and French allied forces might just cover up history. The documents, including some classics, calligraphy and paintings were not burned.  Historical facts are sometimes easy to cover up. As invaders, they certainly don¡¯t want to admit that these classics were transported away by them. They simply say that the fire has destroyed them.  Wang Tian was glad that he knew the truth. The existence of this part of the classics seemed to prove that other copies of the Yongle Dadian were probably still in this world.  For the Chinese nation, this is undoubtedly a great blessing.  But facing this treasure, Wang Tian showed a look of disdain.  "Obviously I have no interest in the treasure you exchanged with me. Tell me, what is the next treasure to be exchanged?" This answer was beyond Beck Hatton's expectation. He looked at Wang Tian, ??who had a look on his face.  The serious look made him give up his doubts in the next second.  After laughing, he said.  "Since Mr. Wang Tian doesn't like this one, let's take a look at this one, shall we?" While Baker Hatton was talking, he had already taken out a treasure from the cabinet, which was a cloisonn¨¦ pagoda.  The pagoda is more than thirty centimeters high, with six floors and ten rings on the body. It is said to be perfect.  The cloisonn¨¦ filigree is very beautiful, and the glaze application is natural and smooth. The entire cloisonn¨¦ pagoda looks extremely exquisite, several times more beautiful than the cloisonne Wang Tian saw in the antique market.  Wang Tian knew in his heart that this must have been used by skilled craftsmen to pay homage to the emperor. The perfection of its craftsmanship cannot be imitated by later generations.  But even though it was such a valuable and beautiful cloisonn¨¦ pagoda, Wang Tian still couldn't express his strong love for it.  Smiling faintly, Wang Tian continued to walk in calmly, his eyes looking at other treasures from time to time. This also told Beck Hatton to a certain extent that neither of these two treasures seemed to be able to impress Wang Tian.  .  Seeing that Wang Tian was indifferent, Beckhadon had no choice but to say disappointedly.  "Mr. Wang Tian, ??I only have these two treasures in your country and I think I can get them. But since you don't like them, I have no choice. Let's go out and have some draft beer first?" "Oh. Okay."  Wang Tian nodded.  Please politely ask Mr. Baker to go out first.  In Wang Tian's heart, these two treasures have long been remembered by him, and Wang Tian hopes to get these two treasures at the minimum price. As for the Old Testament, it is so precious, and of course it must lead to even greater treasures.  of treasure.  Wang Tian did not expect that his trip to Paris would bring such rewards. Besides learning sculpture skills, Wang Tian knew that there would be many interesting things in Paris these days.  Beck Hatton¡¯s virtuous wife prepared draft beer and barbecue, as well as some pizza and fried eggs.  The two children drank milk gurglingly, then grabbed the barbecue and went to play with the puppy.  Beck Hatton and Wang Tian toasted, but his face always showed disappointment. His eyes glanced at the Old Testament on Wang Tian from time to time, and then he drank the draft beer into his stomach.  After three large glasses of draft beer, Wang Tian was not drunk, but felt exhausted. Beckhadon wanted to drink, so his wife brought red wine.  After two more glasses of red wine, Wang Tian felt a little dizzy at this time.  French red wine has a higher alcohol content than domestic wine, making the wine stronger and stronger.  But Wang Tian always remembered his Bible, fearing that it would be taken away by Baker Hatton if it fell somewhere.  Finally, it was already getting late when Wang Tian left the Beck Hatton Villa. When he went out and stopped the car, Wang Tian headed for the Frankfurt Hotel.  Su Lele waited in the room all afternoon for Wang Tian and Beck Hatton to come back.  But until it got dark, there was still no news from the two men.    Su Lele did not expect that her first day of trip to Paris would be so wasted.  I originally planned to go out for a walk, but I was afraid that Wang Tian and the others would come back soon, but this evening, after finally wasting an entire afternoon, Su Lele complained a little about Wang Tian.  I didn¡¯t even tell myself what I was doing this afternoon.  Who knows, just as he was complaining, Su Lele heard a knock on the door. The knock was very loud and unscrupulous. Su Lele didn't know anyone in Paris, so this knock on the door could scare Su Lele.  Lele was frightened.  She tiptoed forward, her heart beating fast, and she carefully tested who she could ask, but there was no reply from the door, just a knock on the door.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
