Global Treasure Hunting: From Penniless to Billionaire

Page 236

I really don't understand how your potential stock fell into my hands. "

I said I couldn't hold back at the time, do you believe it?

Zhao An laughed aloud: "Oh, now that the children are all in their stomachs, they still talk about what to do with those who have nothing.

Let's go, let's go, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it for lunch. "

"Eat, eat, and eat."

Li Zhiyuan's grandpa's house is not very far away, and it takes more than 20 minutes to drive out of the city.

It was a small mountain village with beautiful mountains and clear waters, a house with three entrances, it looked small but was very delicately decorated,

Zhao An drove the car to the front of the courtyard, and Li Zhengguo's car was already parked in front.

"Yuanyuan is here!"

Shen Yiqiu who heard the movement went out and shouted,

Zhao An got out of the car and shouted: "Mom, I said to buy something, it's not good to visit empty-handed for the first time, but Yuanyuan strongly disagrees."

Shen Yiqiu smiled and said: "It's really unnecessary, her grandpa doesn't like to greet and see off, so just empty-handed, just right!"

"Please come in quickly, oh, you damn girl, your skin is itchy, isn't it!"

When Li Zhiyuan got out of the car, she swooped and hugged Shen Yiqiu tightly as if she hadn't seen her for a long time, causing a burst of complaints.

After entering the door, he saw Li Zhengguo was playing chess with a pale but energetic old man in the courtyard. A small stove was simmering beside him, probably making tea.

"Grandpa, I'm here to see you!"

Li Zhiyuan called out like a cheerful little swallow.

Grandpa showed a smile on his face: "Come here... sit next to me."

Zhao An also greeted calmly: "Grandpa is good!"

"Hello, Zhao An, I've heard of you!" The old man smiled and said, "He is rich and benevolent, he is willing to do good, he is a good boy,

Can you play chess? "

Zhao An waved his hand to say no, and the old man said, "Then just take a look..."

As he spoke, he held up a chess piece: "Pao eight flat five, general! You lost!"

Li Zhengguo said with emotion: "The old man's chess skills are becoming more and more exquisite.

The mountains and rivers here are also very nourishing. I will retire in a few years, and I will build a thatched hut next to this place. It would be great to play chess with the old man every day! "

The old man laughed and said: "Come on, it's because of my old man that I have tied Shen Deming and his wife in this ravine for several years.

If you are involved again, my old man will be guilty of a serious crime. "

"Dad, what are you talking about, is it wrong for you to be filial to your children?"

A refined man in his forties, wearing an apron, came out to speak.

"Uncle!" Li Zhiyuan got up and greeted, "Zhao An, let me introduce you,

This is my uncle, who is not a well-known author of online novels... and works part-time as an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage. "

Shen Deming purposely raised his face and said: "You can just say that the author of Pujie Internet is not famous, and he is not famous. Hello, Zhao An!"

"Hi uncle, I'm also a fan of novels. I don't know if I have a chance to read my uncle's masterpiece!"

Shen Deming laughed: "What a great work, I have a living, and take care of the old man at home by the way...or do some handicrafts to enrich my experience."

"Please sit down first, the meal will be ready soon!"

Through Li Zhiyuan, Zhao An learned that this Shen Deming used to be the editor-in-chief of a newspaper in Jiangcheng, and now also owns shares in a magazine, and earns a considerable amount of income every year.

And I also publish copywriting and novels on Zhihu and some novel websites, and the manuscript fee is not cheap.

In addition to taking care of the elderly grandfather, she simply moved here with her aunt, and lived an idyllic life in this small mountain village.

I usually plant flowers and raise birds when I have nothing to do, read and write when I have nothing to do...life is peaceful and comfortable.

Zhao An said with a smile: "It seems that your uncle is really a kind and filial person... worth learning."

Chapter 439 Top Secret Research Project

"Dinner is ready~!"

A middle-aged woman dressed plainly but with a good temperament set the table in the courtyard, and then various steaming dishes were served on the table one by one.

This is Li Zhiyuan's aunt...

Under the leadership of Li Zhiyuan, Zhao An set up the stools, and Li Zhengguo pushed the old man to the top, and everyone sat around and chatted about the wine.

After the meal, Li Zhiyuan took Zhao An to visit the handicraft workshop of his uncle Shen Deming,

It was a row of small houses at the back of the house. It looked almost inconspicuous from the outside, but there was a lot of space inside.

There is a row of bamboo shelves under the shady eaves, and a bamboo dustpan is placed on the shelf, and black strips are placed in the dustpan.

It is ink, to be precise, it is an ink stick made by ancient methods.

Zhao An was surprised and said: "Good guy, your uncle still has this skill, it's amazing, amazing!"

Shen Deming, who followed him, said with a faint smile: "The ancients said, 'A gentleman should be a gentleman, aim at Dao, base on virtue, base on benevolence, be proficient in skills, and practice in art.'"

"I was just on a whim, it's not a big deal..."

Li Zhiyuan: "He is modest, waiting for our praise, you don't know, uncle spent two full years in making this ink,

It took a whole year to refine tung oil, collect soot, and finally make toner.

Then add various proportioning materials according to the ancient method, beat the fixed mold to form, put it here to dry in the shade, and must turn it every day, and it will be finally completed after a cycle of four seasons. "

"That's really amazing, amazing!" Zhao An was full of praise: "I see that there are not only ink here, but also pens, paper, inkstone, etc. Are these all made by uncle himself?"

Shen Deming said indifferently: "I have nothing to do in my spare time, do something I like, but I am a little more refined, which makes you laugh."

"No, no, no," Zhao An waved his hands again and again, "Why are you laughing at me? It's too late for me to admire you.

I think my uncle's life like this is the best. True happiness is nothing but the warmth of dim lights and the abundance of food, rice, oil and salt.

Coupled with a little bit of leisure and leisure to cultivate, that is the quiet and good time that is worthless. "

Shen Deming clapped his palms and said with a smile: "It's too good, do you like it? If you like it, go back and bring a few back. Uncle has a lot of them here."

Zhao An chuckled and said, "There's no need to take it back. I only know how to be arty. How can it compare to my uncle's practice of preserving and inheriting culture."

In addition to pens, inks, papers and inkstones, Shen Deming also handmade daily necessities such as silkworm sand pillows, toilet water, hair dye, copper daisy, etc.

All are made by ancient methods, and most of them are made by him through researching ancient books.

Then, through my own practice, I am happy to make it tirelessly.

Later in the afternoon, Fang Diwei called Zhao An and said that he had something important to discuss, so Zhao An had to go back to Jiangcheng alone and find Fang Diwei in the military division.

"Out of trust in you, the higher-ups decided to restart the 883 plan after knowing your plan.

After you bring in the magnetite you mentioned, a research institute will be established in the old place of the original 883 base,

You will enjoy 20.00% five of the rights and interests of all the research results resulting from this,

If all benefits are generated in the future, this will also be used as the standard. "

When Fang Diwei saw Zhao An, he told the plan and conditions straight to the point.

There is nothing to be picky about this condition. The country will be the same without anyone, and it will still develop steadily.

Moreover, the standard of one-fourth of the rights and benefits is based on the premise that Zhao An only provided magnetite, so he does not have to bear the research strength, funds, and even risks, which can be regarded as an advantage.

He immediately agreed: "Second Brother Fang said so, what do I disagree with, when can we start?"

Fang Diwei raised his eyebrows and said: "The Academia Sinica is urgently summoning high-energy physics and energy-related researchers.

But naturally, the sooner the better on your side, after all, the North African side is not close to here. "

I'm afraid you don't know the magic of my teleportation...

Zhao An laughed and said, "Then I'll go back and get ready?"

But Fang Diwei held him back and said, "Why are you so anxious, my old man is here and wants to meet you, um, let's take a look at those animal heads by the way."

"The old man is here," Zhao An said in shock, "Then I'll have someone bring it over right away?"

Fang Diwei stared and said: "What are you giving me? Why don't you just go over and have a look? Or is there something shady inside you?"

Zhao An sneered and said, "How is it possible,

But if you really want to talk about it, it's really shameful, it will attract people's envy! "

Fang Diwei: "Cut, you will die if you don't pretend!"

Together they rushed to the collection hall next to the Zhao's Building, Zhao An and Fang Diwei waited at the door for a while before the old man's car arrived late.

Mr. Fang's spirit is very good. He is more than 90 years old, and he is still walking like a tiger.

"The old gentleman is here, I am really disappointed to welcome you, please come in quickly!" Zhao An greeted warmly.

Old Man Fang laughed: "The old man came here uninvited and came to the door brazenly, don't blame me, little friend!"

Zhao An said: "Where is the old man talking, come in quickly!"

After visiting around, and finally stopping in front of the four animal heads, Mr. Fang said with emotion: "We were too weak back then.

so that they were bullied, plundered, enslaved, treated as cattle and horses,

That's why I have the resistance of people with lofty ideals in my generation, and I can see the rise of China in this life...Old man, I have already died without regret. "

Zhao An said: "Don't say that, old man, you are still healthy, and it will be easy to live another 30 or [-] years!"

Catch up tomorrow, my buddy will give you a few healing spells, keep your spirit full, and I will hide my achievements and fame, haha.

Mr. Fang laughed and said: "Life and death depend on fate and wealth. The old man has long looked down on it. But you, my friend, are really nice. I heard that you are going to get married. The old man has the cheek to come to be your witness. How about it?" "

Zhao An rejoiced and said, "That's really the best thing. It's my lifetime honor to have your presence and blessing."

Leaving aside the status and position of the old man's former deputy national level, just the record and meritorious service of his life... is worthy of admiration.

As for the elder-level witnesses, Zhao An dare not think about it.

That level is something that affects the whole body, and Mr. Fang is just right.

"Haha, then it's settled!" Mr. Fang strode out while saying, "Jiangcheng is my hometown. I will stay here for a while when I come back this time.

If my friend is free, I will prepare some thin wine in the old house, and let's have a good talk over the wine. "

Zhao An said happily: "I will bother you when I have time, old man, go slowly!"

Chapter 440

In the morning of the next day, Zhao An asked Xu Wenqian about arranging a box truck.

Xu Wenqian: "It has already been done, but it was close to the weekend and there was no time to get a license, but there should be no problem with the license."

Zhao An nodded and said: "There is no problem with the board, where is it, I'll go and see!"

It's not a problem at all to get the cards. When Zhao An gets back the Magnetite, I'm afraid the army and police will escort it all the way to the 883 secret base in the northwest. If he doesn't research results, he won't even think about coming back.

"I'll let someone drive over."

Xu Wenqian went to make a phone call, and within ten minutes, a box truck with a load of 10 tons was parked at the bottom of Zhao's Building.

Zhao An took a general look, took over the key, and left it there without asking.

After a while, Zhao An took Wang Bing to the Metro store in Hongshan shopping mall and bought a set of camping equipment.

Tents, sleeping bags, field tools, etc., are filled with a large rucksack.

I bought so many before, but almost all of them were lost in the Brazilian jungle, and now I need to buy more.

By the way, I bought some food in the mall. After all, I need to spend the cooling time of the teleportation in the desert of Mauritania. Zhao An will not treat himself badly when it comes to eating and drinking.

On the way back, although Wang Bing was a little curious about Zhao An's actions, he never asked any questions.

On the contrary, Zhao An asked: "How is it? This time your father-in-law celebrates his birthday. How is the effect?"

Wang Bing laughed and said: "Speaking of which, I haven't thanked Mr. Zhao for his generosity, but the effect is surprisingly good.

When the father-in-law is satisfied, everything will stop, and no one can find fault. "
