Chapter 205 Professor Green


Chapter 205 Professor Green

The White Wolf's plan was carried out smoothly. Everything was as Lynch expected. Not only was it fruitful, but it also connected with the Archaeological Association. The cooperation in the future will surely be successful. Smooth and intimate. Just like the information about advent-level rare objects, the confidentiality level should be very high under normal circumstances, but with a stroke of his pen, Chairman Ole approved Lynch's investigation request on the spot.

It seems that the seemingly ordinary business war routines in previous life dramas are actually the experience accumulated over decades in the era of information explosion, and they are still quite effective for people in the Victorian era.

The people of the Archaeological Association seemed to have taken advantage of them. As soon as the two left the chairman's office, excited cheers came from the door, which was so intense that Lynch was a little worried about whether there was something wrong with the two little old men's hearts.

Miss Valente finally couldn't bear it any longer. As soon as she left the office, she pulled Lynch to a corner and asked, "Elder Nicklay only knows that the ancient city is in Best." We don’t know the specific location at the bottom of the mountain, so we can’t even provide the specific location.”

Lynch said firmly: “Don’t worry, we don’t actually need to know the specific location of Zul’Glassar. Grant and the Blue Patriarch have provided it, and it will definitely appear during the tunnel project, otherwise the sewer ghouls would not use the tunnel project to force the ancient city to appear."

"So we actually can't get anything out? Just by going around a few of them, we got tens of thousands of pounds in compensation for the mountain residents, as well as a bunch of promises from the Archaeological Association? Many of them are It's a very ancient thing, very powerful. How can they accept it? "Mr. Lynch, you must be careful."

This is beyond her knowledge, Miss Valente looked worried. looked at Lynch.

Lynch smiled with some emotion. He knew that this was the limitation of the era. No one in this era had come up with such a method: "But in fact, they all accepted it, and they still wanted to fight with us. Say thank you.”

Miss Valente breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, the two little old men had thanked them so much just now. They were more cordial than seeing Saint Nightingale, as if they had seen immortality and the Supreme coming to the world. But she still felt uneasy for Lynch and asked: "Why is this happening? Sorry, if you ask too much, I retract my previous question."

Lin Qi did not hide anything and explained patiently. : "There is no need to take it back. It's not a sophisticated skill, it's just a simple information gap. They each have what they want, and there are also things that others don't have. As long as we guess what they have and what they need, we can then type out the information from other parties. The name goes around between them, allowing their needs to be met without exceeding their psychological price, and a result that everyone will be happy to accept."

"As long as several parties are satisfied, then we can mix our own interests into it and get enough benefits without paying any price. Just control their total contribution so that it does not exceed the range of our hearts. Not only will they not object, but they will happily chase us and say thank you. Oh, some people may not be willing to express their gratitude. After all, some people have paid too much, but who can let him be so greedy and have the food all to himself. Well, it is the greatest luck to be able to avoid bankruptcy and still make a little more money.”

Miss Valente covered her mouth, looking thoughtful, staring at Lynch unblinkingly with her big eyes, not knowing what she was thinking. Lin Qi didn't care and continued:

"Actually, those before were just appetizers, just a small goal at most. We haven't gone to the Governor's Mansion yet, the main meal is there."

Miss Valente asked in surprise: "Is there one in the Governor's Palace too?"

"Of course, Grant has to pay a large amount of money, the sewer ghouls have to pay for the location of Zul'Glassar, and the Archaeological Association has to undertake the specific work of the excavation and academic support. There are a lot of troubles behind it, but what about the Governor's Mansion?"

“They can get the reputation of sympathizing with the victims of the Massacre Square, and they can get the ruins of a huge ancient city on the edge of the city out of thin air. Their future development and operation can bring a very considerable income, and it can also bring benefits to the Wien family. To get a huge reputation, but their efforts are just business matters and no obstacles are set up for other parties? Is this reasonable? How can there be a good thing that only takes profits without paying anything?"

Ms. Valente's expression was subtle. Pointing at himself and Lin Qi.

"We have also done coordination work and paid our moral standards, right? Ahem, in short, in order to ensure fairness to the other parties we represent, we have to ask the Governor's Mansion to pay more."
< br>Seeing Miss Valente take a step back and looking at him with a frightened look like a mysterious alien, Lynch glared at her and explained:

"Actually, the main interest is still in the Governor's Mansion, but specifically... What, you still need to think about it yourself.”

Miss Valente was stunned: "Me? The Valente family also has a share? Why?"

"You don't know? Oh, my red moon." Lynch exclaimed in a contrived translation accent .

【I am. 】

‘…Don’t cause trouble. Lynch almost choked to death. He coughed a few times before he recovered, and said to Miss Valente, "The most important thing about this kind of cooperation is that everyone can get enough benefits and it is equal to everyone. Of course, maybe It is more equal to several parties. Therefore, it is impossible to miss the interests of the Valente family. Don't forget that a large part of the mountains that the tunnel passes through is the territory of the Valente family. This is the direct interest of the Valente family. . If you operate it properly, you may be able to exchange your territory for part of the benefits of the entire railway. The steam engine has brought Rand into the era of railways. This is also a good idea, but it depends on your own ideas. "< br>
Miss Valente frowned slightly, Lynch's suggestion that transcended the times made her fall into deep thought. She realized that what Lynch said was unprecedented, but when she thought about it, it was humane and common sense. The Valente family might really be able to get a large share of the benefits from it. But caution must be exercised so as not to get the family into trouble.

"There is no rush about the Governor's Mansion. You can think about it slowly. Let's go meet that crazy Yangliu in his dream first."

While plotting, the two of them had already taken the approval letter from Chairman Ole and walked into a hall on the second underground floor of the museum.

As soon as you enter the door, a cold and decaying atmosphere hits your face, as if you are in an ancient tomb.

There are many display cabinets around, with all kinds of dirty debris inside. Ancient statues and totems are piled in the corners. The beating light of the gas lamp shines on these ancient objects, and the shadows sway and twist from time to time, making the strange ancient objects It looks like it's alive. Professor Green, a white-haired little old man with rosacea, was standing in the middle of the hall with a group of people, with a large skeleton in front of him.

The skeleton seems to be that of some large animal, with a body like a horse, a head like a bird, hooves on the hind limbs, sharp claws on the forelimbs, and a pair of bat wings on the back.

Although it was just a skeleton specimen, Lynch felt a burst of instinctive disgust and nausea when he saw it, as if it was some weird and evil mysterious alien.

Professor Green was staring at the skeleton intently. After a few seconds, he suddenly took the notebook handed over by others, placed his right hand on the open page, and slowly brushed the paper with his palm.

Following his movements, a lifelike skeleton portrait emerged from under his hand, which was clearer and more realistic than a black and white photo.

【Power, painting, ability, copying. 】

After holding up his work and comparing it with the skeleton for a moment, Professor Green nodded with satisfaction and stared at Lynch and Miss Valente impatiently.

"Aren't you okay? Why did you come here again? Don't disturb our research. The things buried in the soil are much cuter than you. I don't want to waste time looking at you. When did you become like this? It’s so explicit, I might even be interested.”

It’s so explicit.

Lynch sighed at the skeleton and handed over the approval letter from Chairman Ole.

"Cooperating with your investigation? Are you kidding me?" Professor Green's rosacea became redder and redder, and he became furious on the spot. "My time is so precious. This complete skeleton of Bayaki is waiting for me. This is a rare opportunity for me to win the Rand Archaeological Medal. Why should I waste my precious time on you? "

"Well... maybe, because I am an investor?" Lin Qi imitated the same tone and movements of Professor Green not long ago, scratched his head and asked, "Maybe because I brought a large amount of funds, you can also get a share of your research?"

The old professor fell into silence. Just when Lynch was worried that he couldn't make a joke and would be angry, he suddenly threw away the notebook in his hand and took Lynch's hand. The smile on his face made his nose glow red. , and excitedly pulled him towards the side of the office.

“I told you earlier, come in and sit down, you guys, why don’t you bring out my best coffee to entertain you two. Please sit inside, the investors here are as great as the twelve main gods. "Whatever you two want to investigate, just tell me, I will fully cooperate."

His, Lynch finally realized that everyone in the Archaeological Association is really sick, seeing that Miss Valente is already. He covered his mouth and couldn't stand up. He knew that this girl was unreliable, so he had to answer with a dry smile: "The door between fiction and reality, the chairman said you know better."

The smile suddenly froze, and the sharp eyes hit Lin Qi's face. Lin Qi didn't say anything, but just smiled leisurely and looked at him calmly.

Looking at Lynch, and then at the approval document in his hand, Professor Green hesitated for a moment, then frowned and said: "That is a very disgusting strange object, advent level, the image is..."

When Lin Qi heard this, he quickly took out his detective notebook and pen to record information in the notebook. However, the pen tip automatically cracked as soon as it touched the paper, as if he had used too much force.

What's going on?

Looking up again, he found that Professor Green and Miss Valente were both looking at him with extremely strange and extremely admiring eyes.

“I have been studying archeology for forty years, and this is the first time I have seen someone who dares to directly try to record information about advent-level strange objects.” Professor Green rubbed his nose and said in horror, “Are you planning to Are you going to directly create a mysterious file of Advent level? It’s impossible to complete a mysterious file of that level without preparing hundreds of lives to sacrifice, or are you planning to drain your soul to try it?”

? ? ?

Lin Qi then realized how many dangerous and stupid things he had done unintentionally. Sure enough, the mysterious world is full of counterintuitive and weird things. He must use his brain more before doing things in the future.

Smiling awkwardly, Lynch put away his notebook and said, "It was a mistake, a momentary instinct. What do you think the image of that thing is?"

"A mirror, contaminated with the power of replication, can turn falsehood into truth, or to put it more vividly, turn the image reflected in the mirror into reality."
