You Yuecheng's father's name is You Honglu, and he looks like he was cut from the same mold as his son.

As soon as he came in, he thanked him profusely.

In short, it turns out that if Meng Shaoyuan hadn't been there this time, they and his son would have suffered unfair injustice.

You Honglu is also a successful businessman in Nanjing. His family used to run a pawn shop. Once this business is opened, it will definitely be a profitable business.

Meng Shaoyuan was related to this word: "Old You, I heard that the 'Ode to the Master' is extremely valuable, how could you have it? Don't worry, it's nothing else. I'm just curious. If you don't want to talk about it, forget it."

"How dare I hide anything in front of Chief Meng." You Honglu knew Meng Shaoyuan's identity. If he dissatisfied him, he might not be able to reap the consequences in Chongqing: "My You family has been running pawnshops for generations.

, In the sixth year of the Republic of China, an old man came to my pawn shop. It seemed that he had lived a good life in the past, but now he couldn't live any longer.

The old gentleman brought a scroll with him, either with calligraphy or paintings. A family like this must have been a high-ranking official in the past, but later fell into ruin and had no skills. What should they do? They could only live by pawning. So, they took

Most of the pawned items that come out are good ones. I chatted with him for a while and asked him to take out the items and take a look..."

As a result, You Honglu was shocked if he didn't look at it.

It turned out to be the "Ode to the Master" that had been missing for a long time!

How could You Honglu let this treasure go? With clever arguments, he allowed the old gentleman to pawn it for a year. According to the rules of the pawn shop, one year's interest would be deducted first, and then the principal would be given to him.

"I've been on tenterhooks this year." You Honglu looked a little worried now: "I'm afraid that the old man will suddenly get a sum of money at that time and come back to redeem it, which will simply kill me.

Fortunately, a year later, after 10 o'clock in the morning, the old gentleman still did not show up."

The pawn shop is very precise in the redemption time for this kind of precious pawned item. Once time passes, even if you show up with money again, the pawned item no longer belongs to you.

Therefore, "Ode to the Master" fell into the hands of You Honglu, and was regarded as a family heirloom by him, and he kept it secret and told no one.

If not for this escape, even his own son would have been kept in the dark!

(I would like to apologize to all readers. I checked carefully and found that the ship did go directly to Chongqing. The information I checked before was wrong. In 1933, a British cargo ship traveled from Shanghai to Chongqing. The crew’s diary misled me, so I wrote
