Alfred and Lin Si, who remained in Europe, launched a massive takeover operation following Lin Jicheng's instructions. Meanwhile, with the start of classes fast approaching, Lin Jicheng had to abandon her plan to continue being a successful businesswoman in Europe and return to Beijing to attend school.
"Sigh, even the richest people have the pain of going back to school!"
Lin Jicheng looked at his densely packed class schedule from his freshman year, rubbed his face, and tried to clear his head:
"Choosing courses is great in the moment, but attending them is a nightmare!"
"Originally, I was just an ordinary computer science student. In order to become a super-rich person and manage my assets properly, I specifically chose to major in business as my double major..."
"Now we're in big trouble! There are so many classes to attend! We can't possibly finish them all!"
While waiting for the plane to take off, Lin Jicheng, lying on the soft and spacious sofa in the private jet's living room, let out a mournful wail!
However, she quickly calmed down:
"However, this time I'm not going back alone... I'm also an important protector of cultural relics!"
As Lin Jicheng pondered this, he dialed a phone number he had previously saved in Yunnan Province:
"Is this Officer Xu Jiaguo? I have something to report..."
"I think perhaps we can come up with a plan..."
The private plane carrying Lin Jicheng took off and landed, traversing the entire Eurasian continent, and finally stopped in Beijing.
Breathing in the dry, fresh air of Beijing once again, Lin Jicheng couldn't help but take a deep breath:
"It's still best to go back to my own country! Europe is nice, but I can't stay there every day!"
Back in Beijing, Lin Jicheng didn't even have time to rest for a few days in his comfortable, super-sized courtyard house before immediately throwing himself into university life.
Classes, breaks, homework...
My busy university life has truly begun!
"Jicheng, come quick! I've saved you a seat in the first row of the classroom!"
"Xinmeng, wait for me! Let's go to the classroom for the next class together..."
"Your daughter! What should we eat at the cafeteria for lunch? How about the spicy hot pot at the second window?"
"Ugh, this quiz is so hard! Qingning, do you have any tips to share?"
The joyful and lively university life unfolds like a scroll painting. Although she avoids some adjustment problems at the beginning of the semester, fortunately, Lin Jicheng has three friends with different personalities but are quite friendly. They can work together to face and solve problems!
This ordinary yet heartwarming daily life is also a precious experience for Lin Jicheng. It is an indispensable piece full of everyday life in her vast life puzzle!
For example, today, when the four of them arranged to have lunch at the school cafeteria, An Xinmeng was chatting and scrolling through her phone when she saw a news item that really interested her:
"A miraculous discovery! Fishermen in the East my country Sea unexpectedly salvaged a large number of precious ancient artifacts!"
An Xinmeng excitedly held up her phone so everyone could see the news:
"This is so cool! It's like a treasure that has been hidden at the bottom of the sea for many years, and then suddenly it is discovered and becomes a national treasure..."
Xu Qingning adjusted her glasses, leaned closer to examine the news photos, and said earnestly:
"These artifacts... they shouldn't have been buried at the bottom of the sea for a long time, right? Look at the outside of these artifacts, they are carefully wrapped in layers of waterproof packaging, and not a drop of water has gotten in... The preservation of these artifacts is even better than I expected!"
The news photos showcased numerous bronzes, porcelains, and pottery pieces; Qiao Lingyuan also saw this news report.
"Wait, according to what's said later in this news article—"
Qiao Lingyuan frowned:
"Based on preliminary research and the judgment of domestic experts, the age and craftsmanship of this batch of cultural relics can be confirmed to be from the late 19th century...that is, Chinese cultural relics that were looted and robbed and lost overseas during the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance...and these cultural relics are also completely consistent with the written records of that time..."
"What?!"
An Xinmeng looked shocked:
"So, these things were stolen from our country by robbers!"
"That's exactly what the news said!"
Xu Qingning nodded vigorously, her face flushed:
"Thank goodness! Luckily, these artifacts somehow found their way home. Who knows, the descendants of those robbers would be furious right now!"
Her roommates nodded in agreement, expressing a mixture of surprise and a sense of satisfaction at "what goes around comes around." Only Lin Jicheng quietly ate her dessert.
Hmm, it seems that this policeman Xu Jiaguo is quite responsible!
The plan that he and I devised... has finally been successfully implemented!
After hearing his report, Officer Xu contacted his superiors without hesitation, and together they staged this elaborate drama...
As for those cultural relics, in order to ensure their integrity, they were not even soaked in the sea for a single second before being "retrieved"...
Fortunately, these exquisite cultural relics did not fall into the hands of other countries.
Qiao Lingyuan's concluding remarks:
"The artifacts inside are absolutely exquisite, especially this large Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain vase with dragon design. Fortunately, it's remarkably well-preserved..."
"This set of blue and white porcelain vases should actually be a typical style of the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties. After all, it uses a lot of 'Sumali Blue', a dark blue like sapphire, and the overall shape of the porcelain is more grand and full. The patterns on it are also more full and bold, which is not consistent with the more fresh and delicate style of the Qing Dynasty."
Lin Jicheng corrected Qiao Lingyuan's statement:
"However, everyone is right. Under no circumstances should our country's cultural relics fall into the hands of others!"
Lin Jicheng spoke eloquently, yet accurately pinpointed the age and characteristics of the artifacts, as if explaining knowledge points from a textbook.
All three roommates were stunned, even the usually composed Qiao Lingyuan showed an incredulous expression:
“Ji Cheng, how… how do you know so much? You’re not an archaeologist…”
Lin Jicheng was taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening—
How could I have blurted out the knowledge I learned at the auction?!
Lin Jicheng quickly came up with an excuse:
"Haha, it's just that I've seen similar artifacts before, so I've become familiar with them!"
"Wow, Ji Cheng, you're amazing!"
Xu Qingning and An Xinmeng expressed their sincere admiration, while Qiao Lingyuan looked at Lin Jicheng thoughtfully, seemingly lost in thought.
Just then, Lin Jicheng's phone beeped. He opened it and saw a message sent by Alfred—
"Young Miss, the plan to annex the McKinley family has been successfully completed!"
