During the holidays, most undergraduates have left the campus, except for those in their third year preparing for postgraduate entrance exams and graduate students. There are even fewer people coming to the library, and the Literature Museum and Historical Materials Museum on the upper two floors are not open to the public.
The dean led Oo Xiaochuan to the top floor, opened the door, closed the door, and locked the door. With a "click", only two people were left in the empty top-floor literary museum.
The air conditioner was not on and it was a bit hot.
"Xiao Yi, I've always wanted to talk to you. I checked your files from four years of college... Sorry, I didn't get your consent!"
The dean spoke openly and sincerely.
Otokogawa smiled wryly, stroked the book with his hand, and said, "It's surprising, isn't it?"
"A little surprised! However, I've been surprised too many times in the past six months, so I'm probably immune to it!" The dean took a book from the bookshelf, Baratu's The Republic, patted the yellowed cover, then looked at Xiao Yi, stared at his expression, and smiled, "It seems that you are not curious about what I am surprised about..."
"Curiosity killed the cat, Dean."
The dean looked at the young man in front of him and was really unconvinced!
It seems that if you don’t offer some substantial benefits, you won’t be able to impress them…
"If you study for a master's degree with me, I will personally sponsor you to buy a house in Jiangcheng's school district, and then pay you a monthly salary. With your ability, I think you will graduate successfully in less than half a year. The country has special policies now, so don't worry. I will take care of everything for you. With your ability, it will be no problem for you to study for a doctorate in a 985 university by the end of the year. Academicians are willing to accept you, and then you can enter a national research institute..."
Otoshi Ogawa blinked his eyes. This was trying to bribe me with money and my future. Although I wasn't going to take it, I was still very happy.
This is how knowledge changes destiny!
This is the feeling of being recognized!
Xiao Yi hesitated for a while. What I am going to say next is definitely not to show off my wealth. I am just stating a fact. I am not short of money. "I have two houses in Shanghai, Pudong New Area, with a total value of... Well, judging by the rising trend of housing prices these days, perhaps by the end of the year, my fixed assets will exceed 10 million. Now I just rent them out, earning 100,000 yuan a year, which is enough for me. As for mathematics! It's just my hobby. I don't plan to do mathematics for the rest of my life! If you are interested, you can study it, and you will be more inspired..."
Um
The dean was a little slow to react. From the information he found, Ogawa's parents died when he was in high school, so he should be short of money now!
Otherwise, why would I ride a small electric scooter to and from school under the scorching sun every day
Moreover, when I was in college, I lived a very frugal life. How could I have the money to buy a house in Shanghai
I want to buy a house in Shanghai, but I can’t afford it!
Ever since the country announced the news about genetic engineering and virus leakage, and deaths have occurred one after another in various places, although housing prices in second- and third-tier small cities have plummeted, housing prices in first-tier big cities have risen against the trend. Therefore, Xiao Yi's assets have almost doubled in a short period of time.
Of course, Xiao Yi, who is now immersed in the ocean of mathematics, did not pay any attention to this little thing at all. He only found out about it yesterday when the policewoman called him.
She was planning to buy a house, so she rented a house until the end of this year, and then nothing happened...
"Haha... I didn't expect that you are actually a hidden rich man..."
“Keep a low profile!”
“Ahem…” The dean coughed twice. Free housing for postgraduate and doctoral studies is just a small surprise. The real trump card has not been played yet!
The dean said confidently: "Now the country is vigorously developing genetic engineering. This may sound unrelated to mathematics, but you should know that mathematics is the foundation of all natural sciences. Without breakthroughs in mathematics, how can other disciplines produce qualitative changes? Therefore, the country has invested no less resources in mathematics than in genetic engineering. And I also know some secrets that ordinary people don't know..."
“I won’t waste any more time. This genetic engineering is beyond your imagination. The country is producing Superman, Spider-Man, and X-Men, and the effect is surprisingly perfect…” The dean found a chair to sit down and flipped through the "Republic" in his hand. This blockbuster information was more shocking than the news!
Young people like to watch blockbusters. Comparing characters in American TV series is always more attractive than door gods, swordsmen, and Chinese martial arts...
"Dean, that's called sequence evolution..."
The dean suddenly raised his head: "How do you know? Are you... a natural awakener? Are you a scholar?"
"Scholar?" This information was of interest to Otsuka. He sat in front of the dean and said, "Could the dean explain this to the students?"
The dean's expression became extremely tangled, and then he sighed and said, "Xiao Yi, I think highly of you and admire you very much. I can even invest everything I have in you. Do you know why? Because the more I know, the more afraid I am. My son has no future and I can't count on him. In this era of great change, I'm afraid that one day he will... Alas! Just treat what I said today as nonsense!"
"Dean, I'm keeping my mouth shut! Besides, the country has begun to gradually announce the arrival of the revival of spiritual energy. Look at this..." Xiao Yi took out his mobile phone and placed the "Self-rescue Manual in Danger" uploaded by Lao Er in front of him.
"Has it come to this? It's much faster than I thought... The spiritual energy is reviving, which is quite appropriate. Great changes and disasters have come. It's a pity that I'm old, otherwise I would definitely apply for a magic potion and try my best even if I have a high possibility of turning into a monster..."
The dean took out a cigarette case, handed a cigarette to Xiao Yi, and then smoked it himself, with a look of worry on his face. After a long time, he calmed down and said, "It seems that you have obtained a lot of information, but you can still calm down and study. I am not as good as you... I don't ask whether you have awakened. When I leave this library, I will forget everything today. I will also tell you the truth. I can apply for a sequence potion, but it is only limited to 'scholars'. The sequence of scholars, as the name suggests, is to give people extraordinary memory and comprehension. It is the evolutionary direction of scholars. If you are interested, I can use the potion on you..."
"Why not use it on your son, or yourself?"
"I'm old!" The dean flicked the ash off his cigarette, smiled bitterly, and the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes wrinkled. "Even if I meet the conditions for taking the Reader's Potion, I can't withstand the power of evolution. There is about a 90% chance that I will become a monster. 15 to 25 years old is the best age, and the risk of losing control is the lowest. The older you are, the greater the chance of losing control. As for my son, one of the necessary conditions for taking the Reader's Potion is that you must be a Reader. Otherwise, it is poison, the kind that will kill you immediately after taking it."
The two chatted for a long time in the Literature Museum. As a "Yangtze River Scholar", the dean knew a lot of information...
