The Forbidden City at night has a completely different feel than during the day.

Under the colorful eaves of the corridor hung with palace lanterns, the soft silk curtains complement the blooming flowers under the steps, all swaying gently with the wind.

The uniquely shaped window spirit reveals a winding and undulating shadow. Printed on the steps full of historical sedimentation, it is like an article written by the predecessors.

The crested beast standing on the roof was lightly covered by the night, and only its outline could be vaguely revealed. Without the majesty and majesty in the sun, there is a quiet and elegant charm, as if a breeze blows, they will float into the dreamland, whispering to people about the past history.

The objects displayed in the halls and pavilions also showed a different appearance than usual under the light. Some are gorgeous, some are elegant, some are as refreshing and handsome as Xiaojia Jasper, or as graceful and enchanting as the oiran on a painted boat. In short, each has its own beauty, which makes people fascinated and applauded.

Even a rough guy like Shi Xiaolei was mesmerized by the night scene in front of him.

For girls who love beauty, it goes without saying.

"So beautiful."

"Look at this, hehe."

"What's yours? Look at mine. Mine is more beautiful!"

Sitting on the bus on the way back, the little girls still looked unsatisfied. I don’t know who started it, but they all took out their mobile phones one after another, scrambling to pull out the photos taken during the visit, and they started comparing each other with each other.

Chirping, a little noisy. But sensing the excitement in the girls' hearts, Shi Xiaolei didn't feel irritated at all.

Well, it was mainly because he had seen too many treasures in the past few hours, which shocked him too much. Shi Xiaolei, who was immersed in the aftertaste, had not yet fully woken up.

Suddenly, I seemed to hear someone talking to me.

Feeling a touch on his arm, Shi Xiaolei finally opened his eyes: "Brother Peng..."

"Let's chat?" Peng Mingwei smiled at 2b who gave up his seat, and sat down next to Shi Xiaolei: "I suddenly thought of an idea just now, and I want to ask your opinion."

"Say it." Shi Xiaolei responded casually as he moved his hips and sat up a little straighter.

"Aren't we going over this time to wish someone a birthday?" Peng Mingwei said: "Although you have said before, just bring some local products, there is no need to spend a lot of time preparing any big gifts. But I thought about it carefully. I think it still feels a bit...well, how should I put it, it just feels like it's missing a bit of meaning."

"Well, what then?"

"Seeing your expression just now, I suddenly got an inspiration. Brother Shi, what do you think of adding a craft with a blessing meaning to the gift list?" Looking at Shi Xiaolei, Peng Mingwei guessed with some uncertainty: " When it comes to technological creations, our little gadgets really can't be put on the market, and they certainly can't impress people. But if we turn them into handicrafts, we should still be able to use them with our thousands of years of craftsmanship, right? I was wondering if I could ask the masters to help me make a blessing gift and add it to the gift list this time.”

"Well..." After listening to Peng Mingwei's words, Shi Xiaolei began to think.

About half a minute later.

"It's better not to." Shi Xiaolei shook his head gently, not agreeing with Peng Mingwei's suggestion.

"why?"

"First, it's not necessary." Shi Xiaolei frowned slightly and continued to think, while replying: "Second, it's because it's not worth it."

"What do you mean? I don't quite understand."

"Let's talk about the first one first." Shi Xiaolei explained: "This time when I went to attend the celebration, I took him with me. What I mean is that before diplomatic relations were formally established, they would not exclude me. To put it bluntly, we only need to send one gift. If we prepare two gifts, it will make them confused, and then maybe something will happen. Necessary misunderstanding.”

"You mean... you have prepared a gift?"

"This is just one aspect." Shi Xiaolei nodded and continued: "On the other hand, it is also because I gave up a treasure to them before. Let's put it this way, they want to take advantage of this celebration to treat me before I wanted to express my gratitude for the gift, so I specially sent a prince to personally invite me to the celebration. If I am too enthusiastic and prepare a big gift, it will make things difficult for them... I So, can you understand?"

"..." After a moment of silence, Peng Mingwei nodded with emotion: "So that's it."

"That's why I said it's not necessary." Shi Xiaolei smiled, and then continued: "And the second reason is that what I just said is not worth it... They are all my own people, and I won't hold them back. So. In people's eyes, only those rare treasures in myths and legends, such as the various magic weapons in "The Romance of the Gods" or the golden elixir of flat peach in "Journey to the West", can effectively attract their attention. "

"The masters who work in the Forbidden City are truly superb in their skills, which is breathtaking. But in the final analysis, they are mortal bodies after all, and the crafts they produce cannot have any divine power attached to them. And based on my experience of Asgard People understand that if an object is purely artistic, it can only attract their attention for a while. After the novelty wears off, they will lose interest, put it away, and eventually forget about it. I once got a gift like that.”

"Compared with those national treasures that have hundreds of thousands of years of history, the handicrafts created by the masters' collective efforts just lack a sense of historical sedimentation. I don't know how other people see it, but I think it is too It’s so valuable that it deserves to be rated as a national treasure.”

"Knowing that the other party won't take it seriously, they still brought out a national treasure as a gift." Shi Xiaolei shook his head again, with a face full of resistance and said: "Although I have a good relationship with them, from the standpoint of the Chinese people When I ask myself, I still feel it’s such a pity and so worthless.”

"Well..." After thinking for a moment, Peng Mingwei had to agree: "It is indeed a pity. You are right, it is not very cost-effective."

"It's not appropriate as a congratulatory gift, but..." Although he did not agree with Peng Mingwei's opinion, Shi Xiaolei got a hint from his proposal: "After the cooperation is reached, it may be a good idea to 'export' those things to earn foreign exchange." Not a bad idea.”

"Um?"

"It's not up to the level of being collected by the royal family into a treasure house, but it's still quite valuable to civilians." Looking at Peng Mingwei, who showed excited eyes again, Shi Xiaolei said with a smile: "You'll know when you get there. . Now let me explain to you, I really don’t know where to start.”
