After everyone left, Lu Chen chuckled and said, "So what's with the Master appearing? Of course, it's all just some trickery. I actually had people place a large amount of soybeans under the statue. Every day, I have people water the area around the statue at nightfall. When the soybeans sprout, they naturally push the statue out of the soil."
"Yellow... yellow beans? How can a mere yellow bean have such power?"
Li Zhuo was shocked. He knew there must be something fishy going on, but he never expected that the inconspicuous soybeans in the past could actually push the stone statue out of the soil.
Lu Chen also sighed, "Yes, Your Majesty, don't underestimate the power of grass. Haven't you seen the green grass growing on the cobblestone road?"
Lu Chen's words plunged Li Zhuo into deep thought. After a long while, he sighed, "I understand. Seemingly weak things, when gathered together, can often burst forth with astonishing energy.

"Speaking of this, Master, have you ever considered changing the name of Zhaixing Tower? Calling it Zhaixing Tower is really too unlucky."
"Your Majesty, this makes sense. Why not call it the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"
