Chapter 474: 473. Celebrities From All Walks of Life (2)

Li Du stared blankly at Ah Ao, this couldn't be really a wolf, could it?

In fact, Sophie had doubts, because little Aao couldn't wag its tail. Although its tail wasn't too thick, it could only hang down below its buttocks.

Also, once it gets angry, its eyes are very scary.

When he was very young, he could only make an owling sound when he barked.

But Ah Ao should be able to bark now, but it is still barking, and it started barking earlier, just like a wolf...

Being stared at by Li Du, Ah Ao's little ears trembled, as if he sensed that the situation was not good, his mood gradually became dejected, and his eyes lost all energy.

After Sophie found out, she immediately took it away and said, "Ah, how could it be a wolf? The Czech wolf dog is like this. It had the nature of a wolf when it was a child."

While talking, she glared at her father, her eyes were as fierce as when Ah Ao was angry.

Mr. Martin nodded hastily: "Yes, yes, you are right. The Czech wolf dog is like this, and so are other wolf dogs."

Sophie glared at Li Du again, and asked, "What's your opinion?"

Li Du said: "Ah, it's my daughter. It doesn't matter if it's a dog or a wolf, it can't change the result, can it, ah? Come on, be good."

He picked up Ah Ao, and Ah Ao decisively peed on him. However, it is still in a low mood now, so it urinates intermittently.

Sophie was satisfied, and returned to the kitchen to cook.

Mr. Martin approached Li Du and said in a low voice: "What are you talking about, this dog looks terrified when it is angry? I don't think it has anything to do with its identity, it learned from Sophie."

Li Du smiled wryly, he could only listen but not talk when it came to this kind of topic.

Holding Aao, he took out another cultural relic that he didn't understand so far, which was the hollow copper hand brought out from the territory of the Hopi tribe.

Seeing the bronze hand, Mr. Martin put on his glasses again and began to study.

What he said was similar to that of Ma Cheng and others. This should be a cultural relic from the Yemen region. It has existed for a long time in the world, and the specific value is difficult to say.

Cultural relics and antiques have two main values. One is economic value, which depends on whether there is a market for them. If no one is willing to collect them, it is useless to have a history of 10,000 years.

The second is the value of scientific research. There are many ancient characters of the Arabian Peninsula engraved on this copper hand, which may have some scientific research value.

Mr. Martin is not omnipotent. His historical research on the Arabian Peninsula is not very thorough. He can judge the approximate identity of the bronze hand, but he cannot recognize the specific words on it.

He took a picture of Tongshou and said he was going back to show some colleagues, telling Li Du not to worry.

Li Du was not in a hurry. The next day they went to the Flagstaff City Museum together for the armor donation ceremony.

The museum attaches great importance to this kind of donation. The curator, deputy curator, and main researcher are all here, and the mayor of Flagstaff City is also invited.

According to the agreed time, they drove to the museum at 9:30 in the morning, and then saw a group of people waiting for them in the lobby.

He hardly knew anyone inside, except for one familiar person, a vigorous middle-aged man with a mustache. He had seen it in the newspaper, and it was Flagstaff City Mayor Thompson Toman.

Sure enough, Mr. Martin introduced him, first introducing Mustache: "This is Thompson Toman, the mayor of our Flagstaff City, a gentleman with high artistic accomplishment."

Thompson nodded to him very low-key: "Professor Martin, hello, Mr. Li, hello, nice to meet you."

Mr. Martin continued to introduce that the people here are not small:

"This is Harlan Hogan, Chairman of the Flagstaff City Council, major benefactor of the local museum..."

"This is Kent Mario, the curator of our museum, a graduate student tutor in archeology at Northern Arizona University..."

Li Du kept shaking hands with these people, and Mr. Martin introduced them in detail. He took the opportunity to compliment them, and most of them could touch their itch.

The reason why he can do this is not because of his superb social skills, but because Mr. Martin has introduced to him the situation of today's visitor on the way here, including his family, personality, and hobbies.

The donation process is very simple. After the two parties got acquainted, the curator Kent took the researchers to observe the armor he brought, and took photos to make archives.

The most important thing during this period is to determine the authenticity of the armor and to evaluate it. The curator Kent is not inferior to Mr. Martin in this regard, and Mr. Martin is also one of the appraisers.

Therefore, the identity of the armor was easily established, and the price was estimated at $680,000.

After receiving the armor, it cannot be exhibited directly, but must be put into storage for maintenance first.

When the armor is put into storage, the receiving ceremony is over, and Li Du and others can leave.

However, the appraisal time is relatively long, and the time left for everyone to chat is also relatively long.

Li Du exchanged contact information with Mayor Thompson, Chairman Harlan and others, and also received a certificate issued by the Flagstaff City Council, thanking him for his contribution to the city's construction.

The people present were all very enthusiastic about him. It had nothing to do with the armor. The main reason was that when Martin introduced him, his attitude was very enthusiastic, almost according to the specifications of his son-in-law.

The mayors and chairmen are all good people, and they can see that Mr. Martin has an extraordinary favor for him. During the contact with him, they frequently mentioned the relationship between their daughter Sophie and Li Du, so they naturally had some guesses.

Mr. Martin has a lot of status in Flagstaff City. The husband and wife are high-level intellectuals. Many students are well-known in Flagstaff City and are important voters. The mayor and the chairman have to buy their account.

During the period, Li Du introduced how he came to Flagstaff City, and introduced the Flagstaff American Academy who lied to him.

Of course, he only mentioned it briefly, because this incident caused a lot of embarrassment to the city government.

All the members of the board of directors of Pheasant University have run away and have not been arrested so far. The flagstaff city government has been condemned by the public for this.

There are people in the DPRK who are easy to handle. Mayor Thompson told Li Du some related secrets.

There are more than ten members of the board of directors of this school, and it has been almost a year. With the development of the US police force, it is impossible to catch everyone.

The main reason for this kind of thing is that these people have complicated backgrounds, some of them are backed by big chaebols, and the police don't want to get into trouble.

In addition, the main victims are international students. American students will not come to such a school unless they want to get a diploma. The American students who enter the school with this purpose are all low-level people, and there is no pressure on the police.

All in all, it is not easy for him to get back the money cheated by Yeji University.

What can Li Du say? He feels uncomfortable, but this is reality, this is society, and he has nothing to do.

But it's better than before, at least now someone tells him the truth, instead of being kept in the dark like before.
