Chapter 31: Tong Dajiang, the owner of the museum

When Ren Licheng arrived at the Magic City Museum, it was already 3:30 in the afternoon. There were not many tourists watching in the museum at this time.

Ren Licheng pretended to look at the exhibits in the museum and walked slowly in the corridor in the museum. When he met a museum staff member, Ren Licheng quickly pulled him and asked, "Hello, let me ask, is the owner Tong Dajiang in the museum now?"

The staff looked at Ren Licheng, who was dressed in a precious dress and couldn't help but feel respectful and said, "The owner is now in the museum. Who are you? Is there anything you need to find the owner?"

Ren Licheng waved his hand and smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll just ask casually."

After saying that, Ren Licheng turned around and left in the confusing eyes of the staff.

I felt relieved when I heard Tong Dajiang in the museum, which showed that I had not come in vain. The reason why I didn't let the staff take him to look was to prevent the other party from feeling that he was too deliberate.

Anyway, Ren Licheng can find it himself, and Tong Dajiang's photos can be found by searching the Duniang Encyclopedia online.

After wandering around the museum, Ren Licheng finally saw an old man similar to the photo, standing in front of a bronze animal statue.

"System, tell me what the exhibit is? There is no need to worry about my credit points for such a simple thing!"

Ren Licheng quickly called the system, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to go up and talk to Tong Dajiang.

The system is still a little conscientious. Not long after, the information about the exhibit was played in Ren Licheng's mind: [This exhibit is the dog head of the bronze statue of the twelve zodiac signs. It was just purchased by patriots from the National Museum of Country F and is now placed in the Magic City Museum. It will be handed over to the Poly Museum in the capital in a few days.]

Ren Licheng didn't expect that this was the famous bronze statue of the twelve zodiac signs, but in this way, he and Tong Dajiang even said something even more.

So, he pretended to pass by, walked slowly to the exhibits, stood with Tong Dajiang, and said with a solemn look: "What a beautiful thing, with a heavy history at the same time. It is both a symbol of the prosperity of a dynasty, and a witness to its decline and shame."

Tong Dajiang looked at the young man who suddenly walked over, but unexpectedly, this person felt so emotional about the exhibit. He couldn't help but feel good about him and sighed: "Yes, what a beautiful thing, but unfortunately it will be handed over to the museum in the capital soon. With my age, it is difficult to see it again."

Ren Licheng smiled and said, "Old man, I think you are still tough."

Tong Dajiang also laughed and said, "I have been dealing with these antiques in the museum for most of my life. I gradually felt that they all had life. Instead, I became dead and half of my body had stepped underground."

After listening, Ren Licheng smiled, then pretended to ask for advice and said, "It turns out that you are the expert who truly understands antiques. The younger generation usually likes to collect antiques and understand the history behind the antiques. Today I saw some unfamiliar exhibits in the museum. I wonder if you can tell me about it?"

Tong Dajiang couldn't help but be surprised. People of Ren Licheng's age like few people like antiques, let alone those who collect antiques. It seems that this person must be young and promising.

"Which piece, please take me to see. All the antiques here are my old friends."

Seeing that Tong Dajiang had successfully taken the bait, Ren Licheng suppressed his smile and immediately took Tong Dajiang around the museum.

Along the way, Tong Dajiang talked endlessly about these antiques to Ren Licheng. With the help of the system, Ren Licheng performed like an expert, which made Tong Dajiang appreciate him more and more.

Finally, Ren Licheng took Tong Dajiang into the foreign exhibition area.

Ren Licheng suddenly said: "I also have some valuable antiques in my house. I want to invite you to my house for an objective viewing when I have time."

After hearing this, Tong Dajiang immediately agreed happily: "Okay, I also want to see what antiques you young people usually collect."

Ren Licheng walked to the display cabinet, looked at the things that he didn't know at all, and said thoughtfully: "I just collected some domestic calligraphy and paintings. A few days ago, a friend of mine contacted me and recommended me an antique from Country F."

Tong Dajiang couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's the name?"

"Rabbits' treasure map, but only one small corner."

Hearing this name, Tong Dajiang couldn't help but tremble slightly. Even such a subtle change was still seen by Ren Licheng.

Sure enough, Tong Dajiang knew about the Rabis treasure map, and it seemed that it was very related!

Tong Dajiang didn't say anything, Ren Licheng simply continued to pretend to be regretful and said, "My friend told me that it was a priceless treasure, but I seemed to feel that it was worth ten million at most, so I had no intention of acquiring it."

Ten million?

Tong Dajiang knew that even if the Rabis treasure map was just a small corner, the value was far more than 10 million, but what surprised him was how could this young man say 10 million so easily?

At the same time, when Tong Dajiang learned that Ren Licheng had not acquired it, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

But he still pretended to be calm and said, "Maybe as you said, this thing is not worth collecting. But I am very interested in getting to know you, my friend. Oh, it's not for the treasure map, I just want to see if he has more overseas collections."

Old fox, just pretend!

Ren Licheng knew that Tong Dajiang was very itchy and refused to tell the truth. It seemed that he had hidden the secret of Rabis' treasure map very deeply.

I wasn't even sure if I could get any useful information out of him.

Ren Licheng asked tentatively: "Old man, how much do you know about this Rabis treasure map?"

Tong Dajiang smiled awkwardly: "I only heard that this Rabis treasure map is now collected in the National Museum of Country F. The records are real treasure locations. Whoever can find them will become the richest person in the world. Unfortunately, no one has cracked the secrets above to this day."

Tong Dajiang said all the information that was published online, and Ren Licheng didn't believe his trick.

But Ren Licheng also realized that the old fox was already wary of him, and it was difficult to ask again, so he could only take his time.

Before Ren Licheng could find a reason to shirk, Tong Dajiang spoke first: "Okay, it's getting late, it's getting late, and I'm about to get off work, so we'll talk if we have the chance."

Ren Licheng agreed immediately: "Okay, if you have the chance, I will invite you to my house to see the antiques I collect."

After saying that, Tong Dajiang turned around and left in a hurry.

After walking away, Tong Dajiang realized that his palms were full of sweat.

In the end, he didn't ask any important things, and Ren Licheng was so angry that he wanted to kick the trash can beside him. This pit was even more important than the system, but what's the use of finding him?

It seems that I should slowly accumulate credit points to see if I can ask for some other information from the system. Although the system has said that it will not provide him with information about the Rabis treasure map, it is not a foul of asking the information about the people who know the Rabis treasure map.

A man had been observing him silently behind Ren Licheng for a long time. After seeing Tong Dajiang leave, the man showed a prey-like expression and walked over.
