Chapter 188: Waiting for a Scroll (Part 2)
Collect money to do things.
Grand did not just throw the scroll, which he regarded as worthless, into the trash.
He didn’t dare to do that either.
This is illegal.
He just walked into the warehouse of the audit office.
There are several huge cabinets in the spacious warehouse.
The cabinet is filled with some wishful thinking that attempts to "get to the sky in one step" may seem to be something, but in fact they are of little value.
Just like the scroll in his hand.
After so many years, I don’t know how much these wishful thinking have accumulated.
Maybe thousands, maybe tens of thousands.
Grand didn't care about the specific number, he just put the scroll in his hand into one of the cabinets.
If nothing unexpected happens, its life is doomed at this moment:
Lying quietly in this huge, dark locker full of "companions", waiting for five After the one-hundred-year storage period has expired, they will be taken out and centrally destroyed.
One day, two days.
January, two months.
One year, two years.
The scroll is lying in a huge cabinet, and the "wishful thinking" people around them who have the same fate don't know how many years they have to wait here before they can see the light of day again.
Fortunately, the cabinet is specially made to be dust-proof, insect-proof, anti-corrosion and anti-decay.
Don’t worry about it rotting away before the five-hundred-year shelf life comes.
As time goes by, the existence of this scroll has been gradually forgotten.
In fact, on the next day, Grand had completely forgotten its existence.
I just have a mother and I still remember it.
Until time has moved forward several steps.
In the spring of Nolan Calendar 9389, twenty-three years have passed since this scroll was put into the locker, the mother died of illness.
Its ending seems to have come to an end at this moment.
Because the only person in the world who still remembers it is no longer there.
This scroll was completely forgotten.
Its historical mission has ended.
But is it really so?
The interesting thing about history often lies in its uncertainty and contingency.
Nolan calendar year 9656.
The dusty cabinet was opened again.
But this time, no new guys were brought in.
But a young hand reached in, casually pulled it out, and picked up the scroll again.
Ron O'Kenley.
The new director of the Lingsi Building Audit Office.
Through a little effort of his own and ninety-nine efforts of his father, Ron O'Kenley became the youngest director of Lingsi Building.
This young director can stay peacefully in Lingsi Building for a few or more years, as long as he does not get into trouble. Of course, it is difficult to get into trouble in a place like this.
In short, after gilding the Lingsi Building, his father will move him to the most important core place of the entire family: the "Sea Furnace" workshop.
He is destined to have a bright future.
However, young Ron O'Kenley can obviously rely on his father to win, but he still wants to prove his ability.
He wants to discover one or two incredible inventions and creations during his tenure.
Instead of lying here for more than ten years.
This is young people, young people full of passion.
The world may not be friendly to such young people, but it certainly needs such young people.
It's just a pity that Ron O'Kenley didn't have good luck.
It has been two years since he took office, and he still has not produced any valuable inventions.
Ron O'Kenley felt that he could not just sit back and wait for those valuable inventions to come to him.
He decided to give full play to his subjective initiative and actively explore and search.
Then, Ron O'Kenley thought about this dusty warehouse and the countless "wishful thoughts" that were dusty inside and were considered to be valuable but of little value.
Maybe there is a hidden gem? In novel biographies, there are many stories about the protagonist discovering treasures among a pile of junk.
He had read a biography of a knight-errant, which was about the protagonist of a run-down Dragon Blood family. He found a ring in the family's ancient house, and finally relied on this ring to rise to the top. story.
One of the great characteristics of young people is that they do what they say.
So, Ron O'Kenley happily broke into the warehouse, casually opened a cabinet, and casually took out a scroll.
In fact, it is one of the responsibilities of the audit office personnel to conduct secondary appraisal and evaluation of the items in the warehouse through cross-examination.
Obviously, there are not really people who are so dedicated to their duties, and few people would do such a thankless thing.
Young people like Ron are often regarded as troublesome by the old people who are used to lying down and whose passion has been wiped out by boring work.
It is undeniable that most of the time, things are annoying.
But it is also undeniable that the wheel of history is often driven by events.
"Run rules? Logic and calculation? It's interesting." Ron opened the scroll and just glanced at it casually, but found that the content was unexpectedly novel.
This is another characteristic of young people:
Tolerance.
It is often easier to accept new things that are deviant and deviate from tradition.
Ron laughed and began to read what was written on the scroll seriously.
Half an hour later.
Ron read this scroll with bright eyes.
He is not a rune master, nor does he understand runes.
But he is a staff member of the Lingsi Building Audit Office, which at least shows that he has a certain degree of discernment. Even if he does not have knowledge in this field, he also has a certain degree of judgment.
"This thing doesn't seem simple?" Ron made a preliminary judgment.
But it is only preliminary.
After all, professional things should be judged by professionals.
Ron thought for a while, picked up the scroll, closed the cabinet, left the warehouse, and came to his office.
Brush brush brush.
He picked up the pen and quickly wrote a report skillfully, stamped it with his official seal, then re-packaged the report with the scroll, and ordered his subordinates to take it to the family's rune workshop for professional appraisal.
Even if Ron has a certain status and background, it is actually nothing in the behemoth O'Kenley family.
So this package ultimately had to go through two approvals and three circulation steps before it arrived at the rune workshop four months later.
The staff of the rune workshop received the package, signed the receipt form, and then carefully examined it before placing it in Room 1.
The things in Room 1 will soon meet the masters of the Rune Workshop.
Ron's report still has a certain weight.
Three days later.
Rickon O'Kenley, one of the masters of the O'Kenley family's rune workshop, walked into Room 1 and opened the package.
"Young people are prone to making a fuss. This kind of thing that is full of gimmicks but is actually just a gimmick is very common."
He first casually glanced at the report written by Ron and subconsciously He muttered something, then opened the scroll nonchalantly.
Twenty minutes later.
Master Rickon O'Kenley's expression changed drastically and he hurriedly left Room 1.
"Quickly, help me inform the clan elders that we have made an incredible discovery!!" A quick but surprising voice sounded in the communication room.
The workshop staff in work clothes looked in surprise at Master Rickon who was almost rushing in, clutching a scroll, and felt slightly shocked.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen masters perform like this.
Moreover, the clan elders must be notified directly, which means that this is a discovery of the highest level.
The staff did not dare to ask any more questions. He silently turned the alchemy machine on the table and conveyed the notice. At the same time, his eyes quickly glanced at the scroll in Master Rickon's hand.
He caught a glimpse of the signature at the end of the scroll:
José O'Kenley.
A very strange and inconspicuous name.
Another hour later.
The highest meeting of the Oakenley family begins.
The central content of the meeting is a scroll.
This scroll finally broke through the bureaucracy and came to the elders of the Oakenley family and to the highest meeting of the Oakenley family.
From 9366 to 9656.
It waited 290 years.
