Chapter 378: Tokyo Museum: 122 Artifacts Exchanged for National Treasures! (1)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The unveiling of the original Orchid Pavilion Preface sent shockwaves across the internet. Calls flooded Luo Feng’s phone, yet he did not pick up any of them.

The next day unfolded at the official administrative building in Xianyang. The chief governor of Xianyang played host to a guest from Japan – the charming, naive, and beautiful Kawashima Miyuki. Being a woman of stunning elegance and innocent allure, she was, indeed, the vision of many men’s dreams.

After failed attempts to communicate with Luo Feng, her superiors instructed her to approach Governor Lin of Xianyang directly. “Governor Lin! The swords are our national treasures, our cultural relics!”

She maintained a calm composure as she pleaded, “We hope you can reach out to Mr. Luo. We are ready to buy them at market price!” Inside, frustration brewed. If Luo Feng was unresponsive, why persist? Why was she delegated to convince him? Was he unimpressed by her charm?

Back in Japan, numerous netizens expressed their willingness to marry her, some even vowing to cut their ribs to make soup for her. Why was Luo Feng immune to her charm? Was it due to regional differences, a contrasting aesthetic preference? As Asians, such a wide aesthetic chasm seemed unlikely.

“I’m sorry, Miss Kawashima,” Governor Lin began, “but as you may know, this is a first-class relic of our nation. It cannot leave our borders!” Kawashima Miyuki nodded, “I understand. However, I propose that someone purchase it, donate it to your national museum, and then donate it back to us free of charge. For the sake of mutual friendship, Governor Lin, I hope you can assist me.”

Governor Lin was taken aback. She was proposing such a naiVe solution to a complex issue. “If it can’t be given, it can’t be given. Why so much needless discussion?” he wondered.

Nevertheless, as a token of appreciation, Kawashima proposed a selection of relics that originated from Dragon Nation to be presented in return. Sacrifices were inevitable to reclaim their national treasures. The one pulling her strings believed that these national treasures would indeed be repatriated through such an arrangement, a mutual benefit to both parties.

“I can’t dismiss the idea entirely, but I cannot give you an answer immediately.” He pondered. If the offered treasures were truly valuable, an exchange might be feasible, but it hinged on their offerings.

“That’s fine,” she replied. “I will stay in Xianyang for a few more days, awaiting your response, Governor Lin!” He coughed lightly, “Miss Kawashima, you seem to have misunderstood. You’re not awaiting my response, but Mr. Luo’s!”

Taken aback, she asked, “Oh? Governor Lin, you cannot decide on such a matter?”

He confirmed, “That’s correct, I can’t. If Mr. Luo does not consent to the exchange, we won’t force him. After all, the relics belong to him!”

Upon hearing this, Kawashima Miyuki gasped. Was Luo Feng more than just a treasure hunter? Why did he hold such a significant status in the Dragon Nation? A governor’s jurisdiction covers only a thirtieth of the nation’s matters, yet Governor Lin was displaying such politeness and respect.

Luo Feng had not yet heard from Governor Lin when suddenly, Long Jianfei, the director of the Palace Museum, had reached out to him.

“Hehe, they want to trade artifacts and even offer to pay for it? How generous!” Luo Feng mused. He set out his terms, “I’m willing to sell or trade the swords, but the artifacts I need must come from their Tokyo Museum, and I must be the one to select them. If they disagree, let the lady return!”

Luo Feng thought about it.

Would they select trash artifacts for him?

Luo Feng was no fool, how could he not consider this?

“Hahaha, understood, I will inform Governor Lin and that woman!’

Long Jianfei smiled bitterly.

Luo Feng’s ambitions were grand.

To let him choose?

To think of the number of Dragon Nation’s national treasures lost in the land of cherry blossoms.

It was possible that this time, a few quality relics could be returned to the country.

“Yes, arrange for her to come to the mountains in the next few days, I am quite busy and cannot get away. If we can negotiate successfully, then it’s fine, if not, then forget it!” Luo Feng spoke decisively.

“Alright!”

Long Jianfei nodded.

Inside the ancient tomb, a young man informed Luo Feng that Master Gu had found something valuable – a dragon robe. Luo Feng descended into the tomb and appreciated the well-preserved dragon robe with a chuckle, “This eunuch really aspired to be an emperor. And the craftsmanship is not bad!”

Gu Santong, a historian, compared the newly-found robe to those of the Ming Dynasty. Luo Feng, however, highlighted the superior value of his imperial robe, “These may be well-preserved, but the one from the cave surpasses all of these in terms of value..”
