Goldfinger is a bit strange

Liu Qingshan remembered that his mentor, Professor Peter, once said that Professor Merton of Stanford University once had a heated debate and broke up due to differences in their ideas.

Mainly, Professor Merton has his own unique insights on stock and securities investment, and calls on the public to invest in the capital market.

Professor Peter believes that ordinary people do not understand investment, so it is best to enter the market cautiously.

Unexpectedly, Professor Merton won the Economics Prize this year. He felt that he had beaten Professor Peter. No wonder he had to complain.

But as a senior, it is too tasteless for you to show off to a junior and belittle his mentor.

Liu Qingshan was also a little angry: his mentor could not tolerate being humiliated by others.

So he said cheerfully: "It turns out to be Professor Merton. Congratulations. Congratulations. Congratulations to you and the other two professors for winning the economics award."

This year's economics prize was awarded to a total of three people, and Merton was just one of them.

Liu Qingshan also had something to say, mocking Professor Merton as still not capable enough to support the economics award alone.

Merton couldn't help but get angry: "It's much better than the fox in the fable who couldn't eat the grapes."

After living a long life and still being so petty, Liu Qingshan finally understood: these winners come in all shapes and sizes, and not all of them are necessarily of good character.

At that moment, Liu Qingshan was no longer polite: "I sincerely congratulate the professor for receiving a huge bonus."

"Let me help you calculate. This year's bonus is 700,000 US dollars. If 700,000 is divided by three, Professor, you can get 233,333 US dollars."

"No, there is still one dollar left. I guess the other two professors are more modest, so I will give you the extra one dollar."

There was a burst of snickering around. This was not settling accounts. It clearly seemed to be making Professor Merton look bad.

None of the dignified winners came here just for the prize money.

"Do you think I care about this bonus?" Professor Merton snorted coldly.

Liu Qingshan chuckled: "You are an expert in stock and securities investment. If you are short of money, the stock market is your cash machine. Of course you don't care."

Merton said proudly: "That's natural, but some winners from underdeveloped countries may feel that this prize is a treasure."

Liu Qingshan began to set a trap for the other party: "Professor, you are really wrong. This is Brother Wang, the winner of the Literature Award. He has 700,000 US dollars for himself."

"But Brother Wang has made a statement that all the bonuses will be donated. Professor Merton, you regard money as dirt, so you must also plan to donate this bonus, right?"

Liu Qingshan waved his knife, ready to cut the opponent's flesh.

He smiled at the reporters around him: "I think media friends are very interested in this kind of charity. You might as well interview Professor Merton."

The media, who never take matters seriously, immediately swarmed around Professor Merton and started asking questions.

Liu Qingshan spread his hands as if nothing happened: "Let's go, we can go back to the room to rest."

Leader Geng blinked his eyes twice: Is it really okay for you to deceive people like this? But it feels quite enjoyable, hahaha...

Everyone washed up in their respective rooms. After the excitement passed, they felt a little tired. Most people took a nap.

Liu Qingshan and Boban were in the same room. Both of them were very energetic. They were sitting on the sofa, burning the fireplace, drinking coffee, and chatting. It was quite comfortable.

"Boss, I got news about two more animal heads, which are collected by the Musée d'Orsay in France. It's a public museum, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with."

Boban's name for Liu Qingshan has also changed now, and it seems that he is completely planning to follow Liu Qingshan.

Liu Qingshan's fingers lightly tapped the armrest of the sofa: "The acquisition will most likely not work. Ask them if they will change?"

Boban's eyes lit up: "Okay, boss, I see there is an oil painting in the Qingshan Museum, which is Vincent's portrait of Dr. Gachet."

"At that time, Van Gogh painted a total of two similar portraits, but the details were slightly different. The Musée d'Orsay happened to have the other one."

So, I guess they also want to reunite these two paintings, right?

Liu Qingshan felt that there was a way, so he asked: "What is the scale of this Orsay Museum?"

Regarding these museums in Europe, Liu Qingshan only knew about the Louvre and the British Museum, but he really didn't know much about the others.

Boban began to introduce it to the boss. It turned out that the Musée d'Orsay was not unknown. It was one of the three major museums in Paris along with the Louvre and the Center Pompidou.

"How many cultural relics from China are there in there?"

Liu Qingshan felt that a painting by Van Gogh should be able to exchange for a batch of Chinese cultural relics. After all, at this time, the valuation of Chinese cultural relics is low.

If only two animal heads were exchanged, Liu Qingshan would feel a bit at a loss. After all, he also spent a lot of money on the portrait of Doctor Gachet.

Boban shook his head: "The Musée d'Orsay mainly exhibits Western art works, mostly sculptures and paintings, among which the oil paintings in its collection are the most famous."

"So the two animal heads were not on display, but were placed in the warehouse. If I hadn't happened to know an administrator, I wouldn't have been able to find out the news."

Liu Qingshan also understood: It seems that the animal heads are not used as good things, and they are basically piled in the warehouse to gather dust.

In this way, maybe we can get the beast head back at the minimum cost.

After thinking for a while, Liu Qingshan came up with an idea: "Boban, since the other party doesn't value it so much, see if you can pay for it."

"Then you let the wind go and contact the Louvre to see if we can exchange cultural relics in the name of Qingshan Museum."

As for the museum that has a larger collection of Chinese cultural relics, it is of course the Louvre.

In fact, it is not just Chinese cultural relics. The Louvre can be said to have gathered the most famous works of art in the world, starting from the time of Napoleon.

For example, the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, the Statue of the Goddess of Victory, the Code of Hammurabi, etc. are all the top works of art in the world.

There are more than 30,000 Chinese cultural relics in the museum, most of which were obtained when the British and French forces looted the Old Summer Palace.

After thinking for a while, Liu Qingshan added: "By the way, there is also the British Museum, both sides are connected."

Boban's family background immediately understood Liu Qingshan's intention, so he smiled and nodded:

"Boss, don't worry. I will definitely call the Louvre and the British Museum to come up with chips that satisfy you."

It's really hard for Liu Qingshan to come forward in person for this kind of thing. It would be much more convenient with Boban as his agent.

While the two were discussing, the phone in the room rang. Liu Qingshan picked up the phone and said hello in English.

A female voice immediately came from the opposite side: "Boss, come down for dinner."

"Grace, is that you? Why are you here?" Liu Qingshan's voice sounded a little familiar, mainly because there were not many people calling him boss.

"Hehe, I'm your boss' assistant. Of course, wherever you are, I'll be there?" Grace joked with a smile.

Liu Qingshan seemed to remember. He heard from his second sister that Grace seemed to be from this country. Then she went to the United States to study, shared an apartment with Liu Yinfeng, and then became good best friends.

Gu Fu probably came back to visit relatives, and then he didn't know how he heard the news about Liu Qingshan's arrival, so he called him, so he smiled and said:

"Okay, I don't have an assistant around me, and I don't feel like I'm used to having a bag carrier."

"Then boss, you have to pay wages." Grace is indeed the same little money-crazy as before.

Liu Qingshan asked about the other party's location, and then asked Boban to greet everyone and go to the restaurant for dinner together.

Considering that the writer is tired from traveling all the way, the reception dinner at the embassy is scheduled for tomorrow.

In the past few days, various invitations and entertainment are definitely inevitable.

A group of people came to the restaurant. It was really big and could accommodate hundreds of people dining at the same time.

There are buffets, à la carte restaurants, and even casual snack bars.

The winners can naturally enjoy ordering food, but people from China rarely eat Western food, so Leader Geng called everyone to discuss it and decided to go to the buffet Western food.

Liu Qingshan told Boban to take care of him here, and then went to find the restaurant room agreed with Grace.

After knocking on the door and entering, Liu Qingshan couldn't help but be startled. Two little boys ran up to him and greeted him politely.

Looking at these two little princes, Liu Qingshan was also a little confused: Did he go to the wrong room?

"The boss is here."

Grace came over and dispelled Liu Qingshan's doubts.

Seeing Princess Dai standing up from her seat, Liu Qingshan also bowed and said: "I never expected that we would meet so soon."

Princess Diana nodded with a smile: "Mr. Mountain, I didn't expect that you are still Grace's boss. When the time comes, you will have to deduct her wages and drive this little money man crazy."

"Whether this is the princess's command or not, of course I will carry it out."

Liu Qingshan glared at Grace angrily. This girl was obviously hiding something.

To be good friends with Princess Diana is definitely not an ordinary person.

In the room, there were several guests, all of whom were ladies. Princess Diana introduced them one by one. Good guys, Qing Yishui'er is a princess from various countries in Europe, including the Spanish royal family and the English royal family...

There are adults and cute little kids of a few years old.

Maybe it's because of her superior genes, but she looks pretty good, and even the little baby is so cute.

But despite their small size, there are two of them, both of whom are the second or third heirs to the royal family.

Liu Qingshan finally looked at Grace and whispered: "Then you are also the princess of this country?"

Those who can hang out with a large group of princes and princesses are of course of the same level.

"No, I'm your assistant, boss." Grace looked at Liu Qingshan with a smile, and everyone else had similar expressions.

Liu Qingshan spread his hands: "I can't afford to hire a princess as an assistant. Well, I'm announcing now that you are fired."

The room was filled with joyful laughter. There was a seven or eight-year-old little princess, smiling so hard that her teeth were exposed.

Liu Qingshan looked at her and pointed at her mouth. The little guy immediately covered his mouth with his chubby little hands, reminding Liu Qingshan of the time when he was little.

Because there was an outsider like Liu Qingshan, the atmosphere was a bit strange when he first came in.

However, Liu Qingshan's humor soon made the atmosphere in the restaurant relaxed and cheerful again.

Grace invited Liu Qingshan to sit down, and Liu Qingshan asked the second sister about the situation there.

Princess Diana winked at the princesses, big and small: "Let me just say, Mr. Mountain is a very interesting person and very talented."

At this time, little William came up to Liu Qingshan and asked like a little adult: "Mr. Mountain, why didn't the little sister who gave us gifts last time come?"

"They are all in school. They will definitely come when they have holidays in the future." Liu Qingshan didn't expect that the little guy was still thinking about the fourth and fifth children.

"What gift?" The little princess with a gap in her teeth just now also came up.

Little William proudly pulled out a jade zodiac from under his neck and began to show off.

This was bad. The little princess with a gap in her teeth stared at Liu Qingshan with her big watery eyes, looking like you are unfair.

Liu Qingshan really didn't bring any gifts with him, just a piece of Hongshan jade hanging around his neck, but there were several little princes and princesses in the room, so there was not enough to share.

As for Princess Diana, they all looked at him with a smile, which made Liu Qingshan almost sweat: Don't you care about your younger brothers and sisters?

How could he know that these royal families were usually bound by etiquette and rarely had such a relaxed time, so they all felt very interesting.

Liu Qingshan judged the situation and roughly guessed the intentions of these people. However, Liu Qingshan really liked children, so he was not annoyed at all, but clapped his hands happily:

"Then I will give the best gift to everyone. Come, sing nursery rhymes with me."

So Liu Qingshan clapped his hands to beat the rhythm and sang the English version of counting ducks:

Under the bridge in front of the door, a group of ducks swam by. Come and count them, two, four, six, seven, eight...

It's true that the little kids like this. They all clapped their hands and sang along.

The little princess with a gap in her teeth didn't care whether she would show her gap in her teeth.

Especially when she sang the last sentence, "Don't take a duck egg home", they all imitated Liu Qingshan and made a circle with their hands.

The cheerful atmosphere soon filled the entire restaurant, and those who were originally watching the fun also joined in and clapped their hands.

They were originally watching the fun, but now they have become participants.

Grace's face was also full of laughter, and she whispered to her companions:

"What do you think? My boss is amazing, young and handsome, loving, can compose songs, and can write novels. The most important thing is that he is young and rich. Are you tempted? Ask Mr. Mountain to take you home?"

"I think you are tempted?" Someone teased Grace.

In fact, when the princesses get together, there is not much difference between them and ordinary girls.

"Hmph, don't even think about it. My boss already has a fiancée." Grace was obviously teasing everyone, and naturally she was unanimously condemned.

Everyone was playing around, and suddenly an attendant came in and whispered to Liu Qingshan:

"Mr. Mountain, your partner seems to have encountered some trouble in the restaurant. Do you want to go over and take a look?"

The streets that were bustling in the past are now bleak.

The sandy road that was once crowded with people is no longer noisy at this moment.

Only blood mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper remained, unable to distinguish one from the other, shocking.

Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck in the mud, full of sadness, with only an abandoned rabbit doll hanging on the shaft, swaying in the wind.

The white fluff had long been soaked into wet red, full of eerie weirdness.

The turbid eyes seemed to have some resentment, looking alone at the mottled stones in front.

There, a figure was lying.

This was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, with tattered clothes, full of dirt, and a broken leather bag tied around his waist.

The boy squinted his eyes and did not move. The biting cold penetrated his shabby coat from all directions, swept through his whole body, and gradually took away his body temperature.

Following his gaze, a skinny vulture was gnawing on the rotten corpse of a wild dog about 70 feet away from him, and occasionally vigilantly observed the surroundings.

It seemed that in this dangerous ruin, it would instantly take off at the slightest disturbance.
