"And another thing,"

he reminded her emphatically, "the English version will be distributed overseas, so we can price it a bit higher. Let’s sell it for a thousand dollars!"

"A thousand dollars?"

Chen Shuwen looked at the thickness of those few dozen pages and converted the figure to a thousand dollars in her mind, suddenly feeling the material in her hand becoming incredibly heavy.

She stood there, dumbfounded, until Zhao Yi and Zhang Qican left, and only then did she shriek, "Ahhh~~~" freēwēbnovel.com

"The university newspaper’s going to strike it rich this time!"

"What happened? What’s going on?" Several teachers from the nearby offices rushed in, since there were guards in the corridor preventing them from getting closer. They had watched from a distance and now came to inquire about the situation, only to find Chen Shuwen acting a bit odd.

Chen Shuwen took several deep breaths to calm down, and explained the situation.

Everyone turned to look at the stack of materials.

Indeed, "Yanhua University’s Newspaper" had struck gold this time!

...

Two days later.

"Yanhua University’s Newspaper" released its latest issue.

Li Renzhe has always been a supporter of the university paper. After breakfast, he happened to be there as the new batch of newspapers was being delivered, so he casually bought one and strolled to the laboratory.

He had just received his Master’s degree, and thanks to his good academic performance during his postgraduate studies, he was given the opportunity to stay and work in the microbiology lab.

Li Renzhe, wanting a comfortable life, decided to take the job.

With Fan Lei at the Biomedical Research Institute and himself in the microbiology lab, they could look out for each other, not to mention having Zhao Yi there to take care of them at the university.

Li Renzhe was very satisfied with his research work.

Even as an Assistant Researcher and only earning a basic salary, it was enough, especially since his wife, Huang Wenqian, earned a good wage. His work was relatively relaxed, and he even got to take care of the children on the side, which was quite nice.

It wasn’t until noon that Li Renzhe remembered the newspaper, and as he started to read it, he was suddenly stunned—

"Photon Anti-gravity Theory"?

The author was Zhao Yi?

He ignored the second and third authors listed. He knew Zhao Yi far too well. For research led by Zhao Yi, others were usually just along for the ride at most serving as ’assistants.’

So...

"That mysterious anti-gravity device, it was researched by Zhao Yi!"

"So that’s how it is!"

"It all makes sense now!"

Li Renzhe opened the newspaper to read in detail, but ended up feeling lonely as the content was filled with complex mathematics, completely beyond his comprehension.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Wei Shiqing walked in and asked, "Renzhe, did you buy the university paper today?"

"I did, what about it? Are you talking about the anti-grav..."

Before Li Renzhe could finish, Wei Shiqing dashed over in a few steps, urgently shouting, "Give it to me! Give it to me!"

"What’s going on?" Li Renzhe was completely confused. freewebnøvel.coɱ

"Here’s the deal!"

Wei Shiqing earnestly said, "I’ll give you a hundred for it, how about it?"

Li Renzhe’s eyes were full of bewilderment as he instinctively gathered the newspaper from the table, "Not selling!"

"Ah? Two hundred..."

"Not selling!" Li Renzhe said, "Professor Wei, I respect you greatly, but I definitely won’t sell unless you explain clearly."

"This is..."

Wei Shiqing hesitated for a long time, then finally said bluntly, "If you won’t sell, then you won’t, I’ll keep looking!"

"What the heck!"

Li Renzhe was utterly baffled but still quickly put the newspaper in his bag and then left to grab lunch.

When he reached the entrance of the building, he coincidentally ran into Fan Lei, who was jogging over.

Panting, Fan Lei asked, "Old Li, you bought the university paper, right? You have no idea, the paper’s being scalped like crazy. The first edition’s already going for eight hundred, and the price is said to be going up!"

"Really?"

"The word is out that it has collection value, and many mathematicians are looking to buy it to check it out; it’s really hot now!"

"Seriously?"

"Of course, would I lie to you?" Fan Lei nodded emphatically. "I came to tell you, if you have this edition of the university paper, you must keep it, take good care of it, don’t throw it away!"

"Okay!"

Li Renzhe finally understood why Wei Shiqing had come asking for the paper.

The old man was trying to swindle him!

As he was thinking, Fan Lei suddenly snatched his backpack and ran off wildly, saying, "Haha, Old Li, I’ll keep it safe for you and give it back when our big nephew gets married!"

"...Damn it!"

"Stop running~~"
