Chapter 64 After Discussion
"Okay." Cheng Yanling nodded with a smile, "We are very grateful that Miss Shen is willing to donate some.
How about I send you the donation certificate in a few days? And also a replica of the ancient silk fabric souvenirs in our collection, as a small token of my appreciation.”
Just as Chen You was about to answer, the curator next to him refused to listen.
"How did it become a donation to your museum? Isn't it our Jiangcheng Collection Museum?! Ms. Shen is from Jiangcheng!"
We used their place and people for testing a couple of days ago, and as soon as the results came out, someone came to take the things away.
If he had known this would happen, he would have said he was busy and couldn't receive the guest.
Cheng Yanling was a little anxious. "Our major is more suitable. The focus of Jiangcheng Collection Museum is not on ancient weaving."
“It should be used for research first and then for exhibition.”
The curator responded quickly, "You guys worked with Master Jiang during the research phase, so you have to send it to us when you're done."
Cheng Yanling also disagreed.
"We are all focused on protecting traditional culture. The Silk Museum contains all kinds of ancient textiles discovered so far. The preservation conditions here are not that good."
The two of them chatted back and forth, both speaking at a very high level, and no one said anything bad about the other. Finally, they turned their gazes to Chen You.
The things are hers, and she said she would donate them to any museum.
Chen You was eating watermelon nearby, and was caught off guard by everyone's gazes. The eyes of the two masters of the Tibetan museum were too eager.
She couldn't answer because telling anyone would offend the other party.
"You are all experts, you will surely be able to work out the best arrangement. I don't know much about traditional weaving."
Chen You looked as if she had no objection as long as you guys decide on the ownership among yourselves.
It doesn't matter which museum you donate to, they still have to handle their internal affairs themselves.
Xu Jiayan and Fu Xicheng silently gave her a smart look.
The curator and Cheng Yanling and several other bigwigs moved from the workshop to the conference room for the discussion. People passing by could hear the sound of the two sides negotiating back and forth.
Cheng Yanling rushed over from the imperial capital. There were only two people on her side, and she made several phone calls during this time.
I don't know how they negotiated, but after two hours, after two cups of tea and dry mouths, they came to an agreement:
They both took a step back and after completing the research, the original was given to the Silk Museum, but they wanted to make a copy for the Jiangcheng Collection Museum.
Cheng Yanling has something else to do, so she has to go back to the imperial capital tomorrow. After Chen You has dealt with the matter, she will bring the things and go with Master Jiang and the others.
She had to take over the task personally, and she wasn't comfortable letting anyone else do it.
After receiving the news, Chen You, Xu Jiayan and Fu Xicheng went to eat hot pot nearby, as the big names in the restaurant had their own dinner party.
"The weaving method is easy to solve, just look at the direction and arrangement of the threads."
Fu Xicheng took advantage of the situation and continued, "Making the raw materials is difficult. Even the teacher doesn't dare to guarantee that your fire-proof cloth can be restored. It will take us several years to study it."
Special treatment is a big problem.
In addition, the same plant fiber may not be available, and the effect will definitely be different if you use something similar instead.
In other words, the fire-proof cloth in Chen You's hand might really be the only one in the world.
"When are you planning to go to the imperial capital?" Xu Jiayan looked at Chen You.
"Tomorrow afternoon." Chen You replied, "Go with my parents, and then find a local pure play group for them."
"Uncle and aunt are here too?" Xu Jiayan suddenly perked up.
"We'll arrive in Jiangcheng tonight, and I'll go pick them up later." Chen You added a piece of tripe.
"Have you found a place to live? How about I help you arrange it?"
As soon as Xu Jiayan finished speaking, Chen You quickly shook her head, "No need, I have booked a hotel."
Fu Xicheng continued, “Miss Shen, I know a friend who runs a tour group. If you need it, I can recommend it to you, or find someone familiar in the imperial capital at the studio to be a tour guide for uncle and aunt.”
She took out priceless treasures and gave them to their studio for research without charging any money. What a simple arrangement.
In case Miss Shen has other good things in her hands, if they have a good relationship with her, she will definitely think of them when she wants to take them out in the future.
"Just give me the tour group. There's no need to bother looking for someone specifically. They will feel more comfortable with people their own age."
Chen You thought that she could solve the problem by spending her own money, rather than relying on favors.
Fu Xicheng nodded, "Okay, then when uncle and aunt come back, I'll take them to the airport."
Before recommending his friends, Fu Xicheng also specifically greeted the tour guide he knew.
Xu Jiayan thought for a moment before saying, "I'll go there this time, too."
That item is too precious, and the museum is worried about it.
Originally, this task would be assigned to another staff member of the museum, but he took it on his own initiative.
"That's great! I'll treat you to a meal when we get to the capital." Fu Xicheng was particularly happy.
After dinner, Chen You rejected Xu Jiayan's suggestion that he could pick up her parents for her and drove there herself.
Fu Xicheng came up from behind and sighed.
"You are interested in her, why don't you just say it directly? I think Chen You doesn't even know."
This way of dealing with things, which does not like to trouble others, shows a sense of distance that can only be maintained with ordinary friends, otherwise they would not have refused.
Xu Jiayan was silent for a moment and sighed. He felt that Chen You had no such intention at all, so he thought it would be too abrupt to say it directly.
And she never seemed to fully trust the people around her.
Chen You picked up her parents from the station and arranged for them to stay in a hotel not far from the shop, and used her membership package to extend the check-out time until 4pm.
It’s not that she is staying in a hotel that costs five or six thousand yuan and she doesn’t want her parents to stay there, but her parents don’t know her financial situation yet.
Shen's father and mother had already seen the big fight in the family, but looking at Shen You, they didn't say anything in the end.
After all, every word Chen You said was true.
Chen You did it on purpose. She wanted to make a scene several times before the other side would calm down.
"Xiaoyou, is this hotel too expensive?" Mother Shen was a little nervous. She just saw downstairs that the room rate was more than five hundred.
“Yeah, we can just change it to one worth two hundred.” Father Shen agreed.
"It's okay, I ordered it on my phone, and I have a coupon." Chen You said casually, "You guys have a good rest, I'm going back first, call me if you have anything."
After returning, Chen You remembered that she had not packed her things yet. Today's trip was also a last-minute decision, so she just picked up two pieces of clothes and packed them. She planned to just take a walk.
I have to hurry back to open the store.
The fire-resistant cloth is packed in a locked box and is of utmost importance.
It was still early, so Chen You spent some time catching up on the progress of the work of repairing the Phoenix Coronet.
The shop over there is open.
Just when she couldn't help but order another cup of milk tea, someone came into the shop.
It’s not even ten o’clock yet and the lights are still on in Modern City, but it’s already late in Da Qi.
The person who came was Li Heng. I don’t know what urgent matter he had so late at night.
Seeing him standing at the door, Shen You collected the things on the workbench and looked over with a questioning look.
