Treasure Hunt America

Chapter 674: It's not the right way

Watanabe Junichi originally planned a lot of activities. Originally, he planned to arrange Jin Muchen and his party to go to a Japanese custom shop after visiting the antique exhibition today. Take a look at Japanese style. 【Full text read..】

However, seeing that Jin Muchen's attitude was firm, and Jin Muchen was always accompanied by a big ocean horse, Belinda, so after thinking about it for a while, Watanabe decided to do as Jin Muchen wanted.

This guy who grew up drinking American milk and eating American beef, after all, is used to eating Western food, and he is accompanied by such a superb Western beauty. Maybe he is not very interested in the Japanese customs, so there is no such thing as Let me mention the chic, chic thing about going to a Japanese custom shop.

The group got into the car and went directly back to the hotel. Originally, Junichi Watanabe planned to take Jin Muchen to have a good Japanese meal, but seeing that Jin Muchen seemed to have no interest in any Japanese meal, he just wanted to hurry back and have a good look. Looking at his trophies today, he would not even mention anything about eating.

Anyway, Jim Sang is not in Japan for a day or two. Can you come to Japan for a long time to invite guests to dinner, and there are some flowers, so it is better not to have a woman to accompany you. When this western beauty goes out to go shopping by herself, Jin Muchen can relax by herself. At times, when inviting him to enjoy some Japanese style, only when a man is present, he can definitely have more fun.

After all, although Western food is rich in Ying Yang, sometimes it is good to change the taste. Watanabe Junichi is still very good at pondering these things.

After sending Watanabe Junichi away, Jin Muchen went upstairs with Belinda in her arms, and when she entered the room, Jin Muchen could feel that Belinda was not very emotional, so she turned her head and asked her.

"Dear, what's the matter with you?"

Belinda turned her head and looked at him seriously and said, "Darling, is it a bit too much what you did today? I always feel that this is not very good."

Jin Muchen and Watanabe Junichi were at the antique exhibition before. Belinda saw the scene of sing and swindling.

Although she did not express any opinions from the beginning to the end, she was brought up with an orthodox education after all, despite the recent experience. It also made her feel that her eyes were widened, but a robbery like today would still make her feel a little uncomfortable, not to mention that the protagonist of today's scene is the man she has always cared about.

She loves him very much. But it doesn't seem that she can accept everything he does right away.

At this time, Jin Muchen smiled slightly: "Darling, you think too much, in fact, you didn't notice the expression of the stall owner at all, I dare to assure you that these two bronze Buddhas are definitely to him. It's also something that came from the wrong way. Since it's stolen goods, it's better for me to buy it than to be used by them for profit. At least my attitude towards antiques is much more upright than they are. "

Jin Muchen's remarks are actually a fallacy, but Belinda doesn't know why. After listening to his explanation, she feels a lot better. It seems that sometimes love can really make people blind, even if that What a person does is not a good thing, but as long as he can give a similar explanation, women will also make some psychological self-adjustment, and then accept his words.

Watanabe's people are quite efficient, and the two bronze Buddhas have now been placed on the coffee table in the living room of the hotel suite. Belinda didn't know much about the origin of the two bronze Buddhas, but she still believed in Jin Muchen's vision.

Jin Muchen concluded that these two bronze Buddhas are good things, so these two bronze Buddhas must be good things.

Although she also dabbled in some Asian and Chinese antiques. However, I really don’t know much about religious antiques like the bronze Buddha. The things are now placed on the coffee table. As an antique appraisal expert, Belinda is of course interested in doing some research.

She took out a magnifying glass and held a tablet in her other hand. While searching for information on the website, I carefully researched the origin of the two Buddha statues.

Jin Muchen also took out his tablet at this time, but he was not looking for the origin of the two bronze Buddhas, but the news of the recent theft of antiques in Japan.

Although the reports were all in Japanese, he soon found a photo of the two bronze Buddha statues in the old news last year.

I checked the date carefully. It was an old news from October last year. The news is not large. It seems that the Japanese journalists are not very interested in these antiques.

The article is only the size of a piece of tofu, and because it was written in Japanese, Jin Muchen didn’t know much about it. Fortunately, Belinda had learned Japanese because she had dealt with Japanese antique dealers before, so she temporarily acted as Jin Muchen’s translator. .

Belinda's Japanese level is actually two knives, but with the cooperation of the electronic dictionary, the two finally figured out the meaning of this report.

It turned out that this report was about a theft that happened at the Poseidon Shrine in Futei Kizaka, Tsushima City. Two bronze Buddha statues were stolen from the Korean Peninsula in the eighth century.

The above said that the case should have happened at midnight on October 8 of that year. The thieves climbed the wall and entered the shrine, then entered the copper Buddha storage room from the roof of the shrine, and then pried open the glass showcase and took away the copper Buddha. of.

At 10:30 a.m. the next day after the incident, the person in charge of the shrine reported the case to the police, who are currently actively investigating the case.

Then there are some more interesting anecdotes below, which probably means that it is not the first time that these two bronze Buddhas have been stolen. As early as 1995, they were stolen once.

But that time, the police quickly solved the case. It was stolen in July. Sixteen days later, the police caught the thief in Kanagawa and found the two stolen bronze Buddhas.

Although it was clearly stated in the introduction, it also vaguely pointed out that the thieves who stole the two bronze Buddhas last time were the thieves who came to South Korea.

The article is very short, the introduction is here, and it is basically finished. Although the length is not large and there is no follow-up report, it reveals a lot of intriguing information.

The first is the storage location of the two bronze Buddhas. Tsushima City, hehe, this place is very interesting. This is the closest Japanese city to the Korean Peninsula. It can be said that the Korean Peninsula is across the sea.

The Japanese invaded Korea several times, all from here.

During the Tang Dynasty, they invaded the Korean peninsula from here. As a result, they were defeated by the Tang army in Baijiangchuan, and they were defeated and lost. Introduce the culture of the Tang Dynasty.

Later, during the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese ronin also went from here, tied a gourd to his body, and swam across the sea to invade Korea. Later, he was also defeated by the descending Ming Dynasty army, and finally returned to Japan.

In the third time, the Japanese still set out from here, and this time they finally succeeded in occupying Korea and enslaved the peninsula for half a century.

In the past half century, the memory brought to the Koreans is very painful. Not only have the national resources been plundered wildly and the people have been enslaved, but their few national treasures have been plundered by the Japanese.

Therefore, the two bronze Buddhas were probably robbed by the Japanese at that time.

However, the Japanese do not like the bronze Buddhas produced in the Korean Peninsula. According to this report, the two bronze Buddhas were listed as important national cultural relics by Japan in 1974, and they are not even considered as national treasures of Japan. superior.

You must know that the Japanese stole a lot of things from China, but they were all directly and blatantly listed as national treasures by the Japanese and stored in the Tokyo National Museum.

However, these two bronze Buddhas are actually listed as important national cultural relics, and they are placed in Tsushima City, which is separated from South Korea by a strait. This shows the attitude of the Japanese towards these two bronze Buddhas.

Contempt, plus humiliation, that's why they put these two bronze Buddhas in Tsushima City, and they also put them in a national second-class cultural relic unit. You must know that the Sea God Shrine in Tsushima City is not well-known. cultural unit.

Therefore, it is conceivable that North Koreans will start with these two things.

The national treasure in their eyes is placed in such a broken place by the Japanese, and it is only separated by a sea from South Korea. What do you mean by doing this?

Isn't this clearly stimulating the fragile nerves of Koreans?

So there are Korean thieves who have attacked these two bronze Buddhas one after another. This is a normal thing.

And after reading the Yomiuri Shimbun and other newspapers~lightnovelpub.net~, there is no report about the two bronze Buddhas, which can already explain a lot of things.

If these two bronze Buddhas are really that important to the Japanese, and they are treasures obtained through formal channels, I am afraid that the Japanese side has already been bombed, and there are no overwhelming reports every day, that would be strange. .

But the whole thing, just after the incident, there was an article about a piece of tofu, and then there was no follow-up, which is very intriguing.

The reason why they don't spend a lot of time on the report is probably because the Japanese themselves are well aware that the two bronze Buddhas were not obtained through formal channels, for fear that the large-scale report would irritate their neighbor across the sea.

You know, at other times, they really don't care about the attitude of that neighbor, but not now.

After all, China has made great moves in the East China Sea and the South China Sea recently, and Japan's defense center is on China's side. If it is also deeply stimulating their ally at this time, their brains will be kicked by a donkey. (To be continued.)
