Professor Hu likes chatting, especially when he discovered that Lin Chuxia had a scholarly air and was calm and generous. He thought the girl was pretty good.
The old man and the young chatted in the yard for a while, and Mrs. Hu called them in to sit down and have some tea.
"It's such a cold day, come in and have a cup of tea!"
Mrs. Hu had her own ideas. She just heard Lin Chuxia's voice and knew that they were not short of money. She wanted to ask if she could help them buy a yard in the south.
My son and daughter-in-law are both in the south. Their lives are very tight and they are currently living in the staff building.
The staff building is not very spacious, with only two bedrooms and a living room, so it is not convenient for me to visit the children by myself.
In fact, it is because this yard is in Kyoto, close to where my husband works, and I have so many things in it, so I can't bear to part with it.
But if the price is right, they can definitely buy a yard on the south side.
By then, my son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren will be around me, and that will be a very good life.
My husband is going to retire soon. The scenery in the south is better and the winter is not so cold, which is also suitable for them.
So, Mrs. Hu wanted to ask how much money should be given?
While drinking tea and chatting, Lin Chuxia asked indirectly what research Professor Hu was doing.
“I’m an archaeologist.”
Lin Chuxia was stunned for a moment, she really couldn't tell, but judging from the temperament, they were indeed similar.
She looked at the things in the room. Of course, they were not antiques, but she could tell they were quite old.
These tables, chairs and benches may not look like much, but they are actually quite old.
"I see your table and chairs are from the late Ming Dynasty."
"You girl, don't be so ridiculous. I hit you with a piece of wood."
When the old man said this, Lin Chuxia couldn't help but laugh. Yes, the real good things must not be known to others.
"This is top-quality wood. I can smell its fragrance. It must have taken a lot of thought to create this."
"Hey, I polished them bit by bit myself. They are all my treasures."
Although it would be troublesome if someone found out, Professor Hu made some modifications to the tables and chairs so that ordinary people would not be able to tell.
He didn't expect that Lin Chuxia actually understood all this, and he was very happy.
His favorite thing now is to go shopping. If he finds something suitable, he will take it back, but he dare not put it on display and hides them all in the box house.
The old lady is a little scared, but don't let anyone see that.
However, Lin Chuxia smiled and said, “I like it too, and I have collected a lot of things, but I don’t know if they are real or fake.
But this is also your professional field. Antiques always represent the history, life atmosphere and artistic peak of a period."
Professor Hu nodded vigorously, this was absolutely correct.
“Unfortunately, I am old now and will have to retire next year. I don’t have the energy to take students on archaeological expeditions anymore.
Besides, you need money to do archaeology. If you don’t have money, you won’t be able to find people to do the work.”
Professor Hu said this with some regret. Lin Chuxia took a look and asked, "What if I pay for it?"
Professor Hu was completely stunned. What?
"Of course I'm not doing this for profit. I just want to support your dream. I'm willing to give you 10,000 yuan to support your archaeological dream. How about that?"
Professor Hu was stunned. He never expected that this girl would ask for ten thousand yuan right away.
Jia Zhen was also helpless. This was too much to give.
"You want to buy my house for 10,000 yuan?"
Professor Hu thinks that it is not impossible, but the price is simply astronomical.
But my wife might not agree to sell the house to do archaeological research, right?
"I'm saying I'll give you 20,000 yuan! You can use 10,000 yuan to do archaeology, and the remaining 10,000 yuan is for me to buy a house!"
Professor Hu was stunned.
He calculated that his current monthly salary was less than 100 yuan, so he would not be able to earn 10,000 yuan in 10 years.
This was like a pie falling from the sky, and it hit me right in the heart.
"I agree!"
Mrs. Hu shouted hurriedly, and then pulled Professor Hu's ear with her fingers.
"Old man, you are not allowed to object!"
Professor Hu nodded and said, “It’s really possible.”
"By the way, which ancient tomb do you like? Go west or east? I'll tell you a fortune and point you to a place. I guarantee you'll succeed!"
Lin Chuxia said this and pulled Jia Zhen out.
Jia Zhen was confused. He was a fortune teller, but archaeology was a cross-disciplinary subject, so it had nothing to do with him!
“Is this true or false?”
Professor Hu now believes that good things will come to him, and someone has sent 20,000 yuan to his door.
However, he couldn't believe that fortune-telling could actually determine the location of archaeological sites?
"Of course it's true! Jia Zhen, you tell the divination and I'll interpret it!"
After hearing what Lin Chuxia said, Jia Zhen had no choice but to tell a fortune. Lin Chuxia took a look and smiled.
She took out a piece of paper and quickly wrote a coordinate on it.
"Take a look, is this the place you want to go?"
Professor Hu took out the map and compared it, and was completely stunned.
"How did you know I wanted to go here? I've always wanted to go to this county. According to historical records, there should be a group of ancient tombs there, but I've never found the exact location."
"Now we have found it. Just dig according to this location and you will definitely succeed!"
Lin Chuxia was so confident that Professor Hu felt embarrassed to doubt her.
Mrs. Hu was also stunned. Is it so mysterious? She glanced at Jia Zhen and asked, "Child, can you help me calculate whether my son can rise one more level?"
