C785 Book of Passage
Monk Fa Xuan took a step forward, "Benefactor Hao, we have an appointment with Almsgiver Gu!"
Hao Yun looked towards Monk Fa Xuan and said, "Master …"
Fa Xuan laughed, "Benefactor Hao, this is the first time we have met. I am Monk Fa Xuan."
Yang Bo stood at the side and could not help but retort. The first time they had met, he had not even spoken a word and he already knew his name?
However, Yang Bo was also very clear that he was making a promise to the other party that he would not say what he had done previously.
Hao Yun nodded, "Please come in. Gu Deng is already waiting for you."
Fa Xuan laughed, "Alright!"
Hao Yun nodded towards Yang Bo. He did not say much, but Yang Bo knew that this was asking him to not say too much.
He was a middle-aged man in his forties who was looking at documents on the sofa when he heard the door opening, he immediately turned and looked over, and upon seeing that it was Fa Xuan, he stood up immediately, "Master Fa Xuan, I will have to trouble you to come over, I am sorry, I should have sent it to the mountain!"
Fa Xuan smiled as he shook his head, pointed to Gu Deng and introduced him, "This is Mr. Gu Den, who is a heavy machine maker."
Finished, Fa Xuan pointed to Yang Bo, "This is Mr Yang, an expert in the appraisal of cultural relics."
Gu Deng clasped his hands together and bowed towards Monk Fa Xuan, then shook hands with Yang Bo, "Mr Yang, welcome!"
Yang Bo laughed: "You are too kind, Mr. Gu."
Gu Deng laughed, "The tea has already been prepared, it is my honor to be able to receive the Master Fa Xuan's visit!"
The Monk Fa Xuan shook his head, "The Pattra-Leaf Scripture Book is a treasure and I'm most afraid of getting wet, so don't move it easily."
Gu Deng nodded, "Then I'll bring the two of you to the study room for a look."
"Well, thank you so much!" Yang Bo said.
As for Hao Yun, she stood downstairs and frowned as she watched the three of them leave. She had never thought that the Monk Fa Xuan would have such a deep relationship with Gu Deng, and she had never seen Gu Deng beg the gods.
Opening the door of the study, Gu Deng gestured for the two to wait and then entered.
Yang Bo did not care too much about it, obviously Gu Deng kept the Pattra-Leaf Scripture in the safe, and very quickly Gu Deng invited two people in, placing a Brocade Box on the table.
He opened up two layers of red silk cloth, and just now, Yang Bo saw the Pattra-Leaf Scripture. The Pattra-Leaf Scripture's book was about 40 cm long, 10 cm wide and 10 cm thick, and it looked very heavy. However, Yang Bo did not do anything about it.
The Pattra-Leaf Scripture looked to be ancient, and the halos on the outside showed that it was more than a thousand years old, and its surface seemed to be somewhat dry and cracked.
The words on the Pattra-Leaf Scripture were written with an iron hairpin. After the carving was done, the black smoke at the bottom of the pot mixed with vegetable oil was smeared onto the carved words on the leaf and then wiped with a wet cloth. The words on the leaf were clearly visible. After the finished books were bound into a book, a fine layer of metal was applied to the edges of the surrounding areas, and the specifications were uniform. Because the four sides of the book were covered with a layer of paint and gold powder, it gave off a feeling of exquisite, ancient, generous and beautiful.
Yang Bo's line of sight was on Bei Ye's pattern, this kind of natural pattern didn't seem to have much of a pattern, but Yang Bo stared at the pattern for a long time, but still didn't discover anything.
After waiting for a while, Gu Deng could not help but ask: "Is there a problem with the Pattra-Leaf Scripture?"
Yang Bo shook his head, "No problem, this Pattra-Leaf Scripture was created about a thousand years ago, and it looks to be perfectly preserved."
Gu Deng nodded, "Why does Mr Yang want to see Pattra-Leaf Scripture?"
Yang Bo laughed, "I am an appraiser of cultural relics and have been researching Pattra-Leaf Scripture s, but I have never had a sample. I would like to borrow a period of time from Mr. Gu Deng, is that possible?"
Gu Deng looked at Yang Bo, "The Mr Yang's research is really a small crowd, there are already Pattra-Leaf Scripture being evaluated as a level 1 cultural relic in the country, their prices are extremely high. Someone like this Pattra-Leaf Scripture of mine once offered 10 million, but I didn't sell them.
Yang Bo laughed, "Mr. Gu, look, that's good. Give me a price, I'll buy it!"
Gu Deng looked at Yang Bo in shock. He had already said it before, there was someone willing to offer ten million, he wasn't even willing to sell them. Since Yang Bo dared to give up the bid, that meant that he had very strong power!
"Mr Yang is joking, I don't have any plans to make a move, there aren't many Pattra-Leaf Scripture left in the world. Being able to encounter such a treasure is already a blessing in disguise, I'm not going to sell it."
"I want to rent for a month." Yang Bo said.
Just as Gu Deng was about to refuse, Hao Yun brought tea over and placed a cup for each of them. Hao Yun stood behind Gu Deng looking dignified and beautiful, just like Madam Gu.
Fa Xuan then spoke out: Mr. Gu, Yang Bo is considered an old acquaintance of mine, I naturally do not doubt his character, he is a member of the National Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee, you should be able to find this information on the official website, I am willing to guarantee it and borrow it for a few days, is Mr. Gu willing?
Yang Bo's words did not have much use, but Fa Xuan was different. When the Monk Fa Xuan was still young, he was extremely powerful, and when the business was still in its infancy.
"Since Master Fa Xuan has said so, I won't say much. I just hope that you can treat him well and not be careless!" Gu Deng said.
Yang Bo nodded, "Mr. Gu, do not worry."
She felt that the Monk Fa Xuan had lied to her, but she did not dare to find trouble with Fa Xuan. This was because she could easily judge that the attitude that Gu Deng had towards Fa Xuan was not ordinary at all!
Thinking about this, Hao Yun couldn't help but look at Yang Bo. She felt that Yang Bo should know something, even if he wasn't clear about it, it would be easy to investigate it thoroughly!
After that, the three of them chatted for a long time before Yang Bo and Monk Fa Xuan took their leave.
At this time, a heavy snowfall came from the outside once again. Monk Fa Xuan had returned to the mountain, but because the other party had a driver, Yang Bo did not send him off any further.
Returning to his room, Yang Bo placed the Pattra-Leaf Scripture into his treasury, and then took out a piece of paper from his pocket. This piece of paper was given to him by Hao Yun, he took it and glanced at it, and when he saw that there was a string of cell phone numbers on it, he slightly shook his head, not caring at all!
Yang Bo was not the savior, he could not save everyone, it would be better to save himself instead if he begged!
