Chapter 889 Is This a Compliment?
These days, even if you hand over a national treasure, you have to brag about it first, right?
"Brother Xiu! You can't say that!"
Zhong Yuan said seriously, "As Jiuxu, since we enjoy the best treatment from the country, we should devote ourselves wholeheartedly to the motherland and the people."
"No matter how inconspicuous or worthless the gift you receive is, it cannot be kept as your own. It must be used to enrich the national treasury and contribute to strengthening the national strength!"
"As the saying goes, sand makes a tower, and drops of water make a river. As long as I hand over the gifts I receive every time, one day I can change myself, the country, and the future!"
This speech was so inspiring that Qi Xiu was stunned and felt inferior.
Ye Zhen stayed in Zhong Yuan's shadow, and was moved to the forefront by Tao's noble and selfless spirit. If it hadn't been dark and not obvious, it might have been exposed.
However, there is really no need for such dedication!
Especially for members on international assignments, receiving gifts is a common occurrence.
The most expensive gift so far is a large diamond with a total weight of more than 730 carats that Tong Xiangyuan received from the Crocodile Kingdom!
The Crocodile Country went bankrupt many years ago, and the people were in dire straits, leaving only the mines.
Back then, Tong Xiangyuan ran to support him for three months. Before returning home, the people of the Crocodile Kingdom expressed their gratitude with big diamonds.
Qi Xiu held up a small chestnut to Zhong Yuan and said, "Do you understand now? It's not that I look down on the gifts you received, or that I'm trying to discourage you. There are some things that you can just keep for yourself."
Without saying a word, Zhong Yuan took out the national treasure and beeped in a low voice, "However, it is a bit troublesome to store this thing. It has constant temperature and moisturizing. It will consume a lot of electricity if it is turned on all day."
oh?
It turned out to be an antique painting. I thought it was troublesome to keep it, so I simply handed it over.
Qi Xiu took a look and suddenly felt that it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was.
Deng Zhi is much more knowledgeable than this old man. He has dabbled in both ancient calligraphy and painting and modern art.
Sitting on the edge, she looked at the painting carefully. After a few seconds, her eyes bulged out, and she lost her voice, "This...is this the painting of Residence in Fuchun Mountain? Xiaoba! Why is it in your hands?"
"What?!"
Qi Xiu was shocked.
I don’t know how to identify it, I’ve never seen the original, but I’ve heard the name before.
The Fuchun Mountain Residence Picture is a national treasure-level art relic. Half of it is wandering outside and has never been put together. It has become a regret for many people.
Who never expected that the missing second half would be brought back by Zhong Yuan?
Qi Xiu looked nervous and asked, "Are you sure it's authentic?"
Before Zhong Yuan could speak, Deng Zhi said with confidence, "It should be so."
She was extremely moved and said, "I never thought that I would be able to see the Fuchun Mountain Residence Map put together and returned to China in my lifetime! Xiaoba, your contribution is so great that it cannot be measured in money! Even the big diamonds handed over by the Fourth Brother are worth it." Compare yourself to this painting!”
Qi Xiu's eyelids twitched wildly.
Just now he asked Zhong Yuan not to hand it over, but now his face felt a little hot.
Moreover, based on his understanding of Zhong Yuan, he might dislike it because it consumes too much electricity to save this painting.
Zhong Yuan looked at Lao Liu and said with an innocent face, "Brother Xiu, it has nothing to do with the electricity bill!"
Qi Xiu almost knelt down.
You understand with his mind, right?
Definitely used it!
Sorry, Yuanyuan, I will never think nonsense again!
~~~~
Qi Xiu solemnly put away the painting.
And Zhong Yuan finally no longer had to maintain the realm of his true self. He hesitated for a while and asked in a low voice, "Is there any compensation?"
"Must have it!"
Qi Xiu waved his hand and said with great pride, "I will go to the Finance Department tomorrow to apply for a special condolence award for you! One thousand yuan!"
! ! ! ?

…
Deng Zhi looked at Qi Xiu with disbelief and disdain, as if it was the first day he met this old six, and said to him through lip language, "You want to send Xiao Ba away from handing over the national treasure for a thousand dollars?"
Qi Xiu acted as if nothing had happened and did not see her condemnation speech.
It's not good to give too much, just give it in a symbolic way.
If you give it a few more items, you will be happier!
Lao Liu shouldn't know too much about Zhong Yuan's temper.
Sure enough, Zhong Yuan's dull eyes lit up with an unnatural charm, and he took out the computer set given by Solomon and said dryly, "Hand this in too."
scare? !
besides!
What the hell is this?
Qi Xiu couldn't wait to open the package.
The moment they saw the computer, he and Deng Zhi were shocked for at least half a minute before looking at each other and softly exchanging opinions.
"Lao Liu, how much bonus do you plan to give him if he turns this in?"
Qi Xiu trembled.
Don't ask me...I don't know either!
In fact, Zhong Yuan also considered handing over the brain computer to others.
After much thought, I felt it was inappropriate.
It would be most appropriate to leave it to Qi Xiu. Let him decide how to leverage this cutting-edge technology.
This is because Qi Xiu has the highest position, which can at least ensure that the brain computer will not become a tool for some people to realize their selfish desires.
Zhong Yuan said to Qi Xiu, "This is the brain computer I got from the Lighthouse Country. You can decide what to do with it. I believe you."
Qi Xiu was moved and said, "Yuan Yuan, thank you."
Zhong Yuan and Jiang Buyou had a close personal relationship, they were confidant with An Guanfeng, and they had no understanding of Yang Zongsheng.
On the key issue, Zhong Yuan abandoned his personal position and stood on the side of Jiuxu.
There is no doubt that he has withstood temptations and tests, and his loyalty to his country is unquestionable.
Zhong Yuan said, "No need to thank me. Tell me, how much bonus can I get this month? Can it be over 2,000 yuan?"
Qi Xiu's eyes showed a complicated expression. Although he still didn't understand why Zhong Yuan cared so much about this kind of thing,
Anyway, this month's pay slip must be made to make him jump for joy.
Qi Xiu made up his mind and said gently, "Don't worry, we have everything we need. Our Jiuxu has the best welfare. At the end of this month, we will also select individuals for advancement internally. You will definitely be the first."
Deng Zhi's eyes widened, thinking: What is internal individual advancement? Do we need this to improve productivity in Jiuxu?
Zhong Yuan frowned and said, "Don't make a big fuss for me."
"No trouble," Qi Xiu said, "It's just that Jiuxu hasn't had a young man as energetic as you for a long time. It's not a bad thing to put some pressure on others."
Zhong Yuan said, "You insist on making me hate you, and I can't help it."
"How can you say it's making hatred?" Qi Xiu said, "You are now the live treasure of our Jiuxu."
Is this live treasure a compliment? It's so inappropriate!
The matter is almost settled.
Qi Xiu didn't ask Zhong Yuan where he got the "gift", especially the brain computer. Once it's in our hands, don't even think about us handing it over.
Zhong Yuan was about to say goodbye, and before leaving, he casually asked, "Brother Xiu, it's so late, why don't you and the second seat rest and watch the video in the office?"
Qi Xiu sighed and said, "Yuanyuan, didn't you watch the game?"
Zhong Yuan was slightly startled and said, "I finished playing against the Vikings, and then I left first because of something."
"I think so," Qi Xiu nodded, and said seriously, "Ren Ping's team lost, and our team without equipment was eliminated."
