Lu Xueqing had been feeling uneasy these past few days, constantly sensing that someone was following her.
Seeing Qi Wei's skills today, she suddenly had a brilliant idea: she wanted to make this older woman her personal assistant and bodyguard!
With the secretary's arrangement, Qi Wei was quickly taken to her office.
After reading the other person's resume, Lu Xueqing's eyes lit up. "You also know about stocks and how to invest?"
She originally wanted to hire a work assistant, and it would be even better if Qi Wei had some professional knowledge.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, I know a little bit!"
Qi Wei immediately launched into a long speech, sharing her insights on investment and the stock market.
Lu Xueqing was utterly stunned; she had truly struck gold this time.
At the same time, she was also a little puzzled, "Sister Qi, you're so talented, why did you apply for the security manager position? What were you thinking?"
Qi Wei smiled slightly, "Because I've practiced martial arts since I was a child, martial arts is my specialty, and stock investment isn't really my strong suit!"
In her heart, she was thinking, "If I don't do this, how can I attract your attention?"
This is a task your husband gave me!
"I see!" Lu Xueqing didn't think much of it. In any case, she was very satisfied with this assistant and said to her with a smile, "Sister Qi, you go and complete the onboarding procedures first. After you're done, we'll go to a cocktail party together tonight!"
"Okay!" Qi Wei nodded.
And so, Lu Xueqing brought the bodyguards that Lin Yu had painstakingly arranged under her command.
Meanwhile, Lin Yu was meditating at home when he suddenly received a call from Liu Siyun.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, do you have a moment now?"
"Miss Liu, is there anything I can help you with?" Lin Yu asked.
Liu Siyun hurriedly explained, "It's like this. For years, the official government of our Great Xia has been trying to persuade Japan to return a national treasure stolen during the war—the Buddha head from the Tianlongshan Grottoes. This time, the Japanese Emperor finally agreed to return the Buddha head. My grandfather's old friend, the curator of our Guanzhong Museum, strongly petitioned the Yandu Museum to keep the Buddha head in our Guanzhong Museum. This morning, the Buddha head was transported to the Guanzhong Museum, and Grandpa Zhang has already signed for the treasure on behalf of our Great Xia. He also invited my grandfather and several other old friends to come and see it. I went to the museum with my grandfather this morning. After seeing the Buddha head, my grandfather felt that something was amiss. It's going to be publicly exhibited in a few hours, and just in case, he wants to ask you to come and take a look!"
Buddha head from Tianlongshan Grottoes?
Lin Yu's eyes lit up. This Buddha head from Tianlong Mountain Grottoes is the ancestor of all Buddha heads, even more valuable than the Buddha heads from Mogao Grottoes. It is undoubtedly a national treasure!
He immediately nodded in agreement, "Okay, Miss Liu, I'll be right there!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yu took a taxi to the museum.
When we arrived at the museum, the doors were closed; it turned out it wasn't open to the public yet.
However, many media reporters and antique collectors are already waiting outside to witness the true appearance of the Buddha head.
After all, this was the first time in decades that Japan had returned treasures to Great Xia, proving Great Xia's rise and attracting widespread attention from all sectors of society!
The return of this precious treasure by the Japanese Emperor is of extraordinary significance, both from a historical and political/cultural perspective.
When Lin Yu arrived at the door, he called Liu Siyun. Liu Siyun came out from the side door, explained the situation to the staff, and then successfully led Lin Yu inside.
"Mr. Lin, I'm so sorry to have called you over in such a hurry! The exhibition is about to start, and Grandpa was just worried that something might go wrong!" Liu Siyun said apologetically.
Lin Yu waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's nothing. I'm also very interested in the Buddha head in the Tianlong Mountain Grottoes. I'd like to see it too!"
Liu Siyun nodded, and the two walked into the museum together.
Meanwhile, on the third floor of the museum, a specially made glass case sits in the center.
Through the glass, one could see a stone Buddha statue on a platform inside. It was over thirty centimeters tall, with a benevolent face, slightly lowered eyelids, clear and three-dimensional features, and a full, rounded body, appearing extremely solemn. The entire hall seemed to be enveloped by an invisible magnetic field, unconsciously inspiring a sense of awe!
Right next to the glass case, several elderly people and middle-aged men were looking at it and whispering among themselves.
Liu Zhongyi stared at the Buddha head for a long time, until his old eyes were sore, but he continued to observe it carefully.
A thin, elderly man in a Zhongshan suit standing nearby said impatiently, "Old Liu, I and several experts from Yandu have examined this Buddha head, and we all agree that there's nothing wrong with it. Besides, the Emperor of Japan personally promised to return it; how could it be fake? You've done enough, haven't you?"
Liu Zhongyi shook his head. "Old Zhang, I still feel there's something wrong with this thing. This is a national treasure, it's a matter of great importance, we must be careful! Don't rush, I've already invited a master over, let's ask him to take a look first!"
Hearing this, the people next to him were somewhat displeased.
These people included experts from the Yandu Museum and heads of cultural relics departments; they were all top performers in their fields. None of them noticed anything wrong with the item, so they assumed it was perfectly fine. In their view, Liu Zhongyi's actions were completely unnecessary.
However, everyone gave the thin old man face and didn't say much.
"Grandpa, Mr. Lin is here!"
Just then, Liu Siyun and Lin Yu finally arrived on the third floor and walked towards the crowd.
Zhang Jiefang was stunned. He had thought that Liu Zhongyi had invited an old expert, but he didn't expect it to be a young man. Wasn't that ridiculous?
