Ten million was not a small sum. Wang Guanqun doubted if his junior could afford it. However, judging from Qi Shaowen's nonchalant expression, Wang Guanqun guessed that his junior was not lying.
He bit his tongue and could not hide his surprise. He covered his phone and asked in a low voice, "This is not a small sum. Are you sure?"
Tang Zheng said calmly, "I'm sure. Just report it to your boss."
Wang Guanqun glanced at Qi Shaowen. Seeing that he was unmoved, Wang Guanqun did not stop him. He took a deep breath and suppressed his surging emotions. He removed his hand from the phone and reported it to his boss.
"Who is this generous friend?" A dignified voice came from the phone.
"One of my juniors, Tang Zheng."
"Tang Zheng? Which Tang Zheng? "The other party's voice suddenly rose a few notches, and his breathing became hurried.
Wang Guanqun was confused. How many Tang Zheng's were there?
"This …"
Wang Guanqun stammered, not knowing how to answer.
"You said that he's your juniors. That means he's also from the Department of Archaeology of Yenching University. How many Tang Zheng's are there in the Department of Archaeology of Yenching University?" The man asked impatiently.
Wang Guanqun thought to himself, 'Did the sun rise from the west?' Why was everything so strange? Was the name Tang Zheng very famous? Why had he never heard of him before?
He spent most of his time on the sea and knew little about domestic affairs. Naturally, he had never heard of this name.
But his boss was different. After all, he was also a person with a lot of wealth. Of course, he knew a lot about the various powers in the country, especially the name of Tang Zheng, a rising star. It was almost enough to grind calluses out of his ears.
Wang Guanqun looked at Qi Shaowen for help. How many Tang Zheng's were there in the Department of Archaeology of Yenching University? Only Professor Qi could answer this question.
A meaningful smile appeared on Qi Shaowen's face. He said calmly, "It's not just the Archaeology Department. There's only one Tang Zheng in the entire Yenching University."
His voice was quite loud, and the boss heard it clearly. His breathing was like a bellows, and it sounded hurriedly.
Wang Guanqun was shocked by this scene and hurriedly asked, "Boss, what happened to you?"
"We can't accept this money."
"Ah, why?" Wang Guanqun felt incredulous. He didn't want the money that was given to him. The boss wasn't so generous.
"Not only can we not accept this sum of money, we must also satisfy all of Young Master Tang's requests." The boss said resolutely, and he used the word "must". There was no room for negotiation.
"I authorize you to talk to Young Master Tang in detail. We will satisfy any request he has." The boss added again, afraid that Wang Guanqun wouldn't understand his true intentions. "Also, please send my regards to Young Master Tang. Tell him that it's very rude of me to not visit him in person while I'm abroad. I'll definitely visit him as soon as possible."
Wang Guanqun was shocked to see the boss mobilize so many people. This was because he knew the boss very well. He was a successful person in many fields. He was usually arrogant and many successful people couldn't enter his eyes.
Why did he have such a big reaction to a university student this time? He even felt a little cautious.
Wang Guanqun felt that all of this was like a dream. It was hard to imagine.
He couldn't help but look at Tang Zheng carefully. He wanted to see through this little junior brother of his. However, after looking at him for a long time, other than his calm appearance, there was nothing special about him. He didn't even have the legendary aura of a king.
The urging voice on the phone woke him up as if he had just woken up from a dream. He quickly said to Tang Zheng, "Junior brother, our boss said that we don't need your money, but we will satisfy any request you have. He also asked me to send his regards to you. Besides, he will find time to visit you."
"Oh?" Tang Zheng raised his thick eyebrows. This was beyond his expectation. "Do I know your boss? What's his name? "
"Du Qifeng."
Tang Zheng shook his head. He really hadn't heard of this name.
Wang Guanqun's expression became more and more strange. He hadn't even heard of Tang Zheng's name. Why did the boss have such a big reaction? He couldn't figure out the reason even after racking his brains.
The boss had hung up the phone, so he didn't have a chance to ask.
Tang Zheng thought for a while and understood something. His name was well-known and even had a deterrent effect. Even a boss he had never met was so respectful to him. No matter what the other party's purpose was, Tang Zheng would remember this.
"Brother Wang, since your boss has agreed, what time and where will you leave tomorrow?" Tang Zheng asked.
"We'll leave at nine o 'clock in the morning. We'll drive straight from the hotel to the harbor in the east. Our research boat is anchored at the harbor. We'll take the boat out to sea." Wang Guanqun said honestly.
Tang Zheng nodded. "Then I'll see you there. As for this skeleton, Professor Qi, can I take it with me?"
Qi Shaowen laughed and made a gesture of pushing his hands forward. He said generously, "I can't figure out its origin anyway. Since you have a clue, you can take it with you. However, if you really find out the secret in the future, don't keep it to yourself. You must remember to tell me. "
Although Qi Shaowen knew that Tang Zheng already knew a lot about the origin of this unknown creature, he didn't insist on getting to the bottom of it. Instead, he waited for all the answers to surface before waiting for Tang Zheng's explanation.
This showed how much he trusted Tang Zheng.
Wang Guanqun took a deep look at his mentor and Tang Zheng. This pair of teacher and student seemed to be different from before. At least among all the students that Wang Guanqun knew, none of them were like Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng smiled faintly and nodded. "Professor Qi, don't worry. I'll tell you everything when I find out all the secrets."
"Okay, then I'll wait for that day." Qi Shaowen didn't mind at all.
Tang Zheng gently opened the glass cover. Wang Guanqun hurriedly asked, "Are you going to take it away just like that?"
Since he was going to explore the sea with Wang Guanqun, some secrets couldn't be hidden from him. Therefore, Tang Zheng didn't try to hide it. He smiled mysteriously at him and said, "I have a little trick that can take this skeleton away."
"A little trick?" Wang Guanqun was confused. In the next second, his whole body stiffened as if someone had cast a spell on him. He was dumbfounded.
"What did I just see?"
A voice sounded in his mind.
"I saw that skeleton disappear right under my nose. It disappeared in the blink of an eye. Where did it go?"
Wang Guanqun looked around, trying to find the skeleton. However, he found that nothing had changed. Besides, there was no place to hide the skeleton.
Wang Guanqun stammered. After a long while, he squeezed out a sentence. "What … what is going on? Where is the skeleton? "
Tang Zheng smiled mysteriously. "It's just a little trick. Sorry for the inconvenience."
"Professor Qi, I'm here to talk to you about reinstating my status as a student. Please tell Yan Liang that I agree to go back to school." Before leaving, Tang Zheng finally revealed his purpose of visit.
He had been distracted by the skeleton just now and had almost forgotten about it.
Qi Shaowen smiled in relief. "That's a wise choice. I believe that you can achieve better results. I'll tell Yan Liang."
"As for whether I'll be attending classes or not, tell him that I'll definitely be absent. When the time comes, don't bother me with this kind of thing. Otherwise, I'll just leave." Tang Zheng added. These conditions had to be agreed upon in advance. Otherwise, it would be troublesome when the time came.
"No problem. In fact, as long as you agree to go back to school, none of the problems will be a problem. The school has really put in a lot of effort to get you back." Professor Qi said.
Tang Zheng nodded with a smile. He saluted Wang Guanqun and said, "Professor Qi, Brother Wang, I'll take my leave now. See you tomorrow."
After Tang Zheng left, Wang Guanqun whipped his head around to look at Professor Qi. He asked, "Professor, who is this Junior Brother? How did he do all this? Also, our boss called him Young Master Tang. Which big family does he belong to? I've never heard of any family with the surname Tang in the country. "
Qi Shaowen was pleased to see his student's shocked expression. If he did not know Tang Zheng well enough, he would have reacted the same way as Wang Guanqun.
"You used to think that you were extraordinary. Now you understand that there is always someone better than you?" Qi Shaowen asked with a smile.
Wang Guanqun nodded with a bitter expression. "I've always kept your teachings in mind, Professor. It's just that today's events are so unusual. Please enlighten me, Professor."
"If you have doubts, you have to find the answers on your own. What others tell you is ultimately superficial. Only by finding the answers on your own will you be able to leave a deeper impression." Professor Qi was unaware of Tang Zheng's plans, so he did not reveal any details about him.
Wang Guanqun could do nothing about Professor Qi's charade. He could only smile bitterly. "Professor, why do I feel like everything has become so mysterious when I come back this time?"
Qi Shaowen clapped his hands and laughed heartily. "One is marked by the company one keeps. After spending so much time with Tang Zheng, I do feel like I've become a lot more mysterious."
"Is he really that magical?" Wang Guanqun was skeptical.
"You'll know when the time comes."
Wang Guanqun shook his head and smiled bitterly. It seemed that he really needed to figure out this Junior Brother of his. He did not know why he had spent so much effort on this archaeological expedition. Perhaps the answer to all these questions would only be revealed when the time came.
Tang Zheng returned home and informed everyone of his decision. Instantly, there was an uproar.
This was because he had only been home for a short period of time. His butt had not even warmed up before he had to leave again. When would this life of running around come to an end?
Although the atmosphere in this big villa was usually a little strange, with open strife and veiled strife, these were all centered around Tang Zheng. If he were to leave, who would these strife and veiled strife be for?
Several people volunteered to go with him. However, Tang Zheng considered the special nature of the undersea warship, especially since it involved creatures from the Outland. He could not afford to be careless. Therefore, it was better not to bring anyone along. If there were any dangers, he would have to come up with corresponding countermeasures.
Although everyone had different opinions, none of them could shake Tang Zheng's determination.
