After a while, the auction ended.
Zhang Yuehua stood up and was about to leave. As he walked out, he saw Lu Cheng.
She was stunned for a moment, then walked over and said, "Xiao Lu, are you here too? I'm sorry, I paid a low price for the bracelet I bought earlier, and I took advantage of you."
Lu Cheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "One price for one time. There is no need to mention the past."
Zhang Yuehua smiled, glanced at Jiang Qiuyun, and praised: "Xiao Lu, this is your girlfriend. She has a very good image and temperament. Her eyes are lively and she can talk. Is she studying acting or dancing? If you want to film, I can If you help me, it will be considered as compensation for your jade bracelet."
Lu Cheng looked at Jiang Qiuyun and said with a smile: "Haha, do you want to act?"
Jiang Qiuyun smiled and shook her head.
Zhang Yuehua said: "What a pity. Xiao Lu, you have my WeChat account. If you change your mind, you can contact me."
"Thank you. Sister Zhang, please take care of yourself."
Zhang Yuehua walked out of the auction house and asked the man next to him: "Do you still remember him?"
The man said calmly: "I have an impression."
"This young man's name is 'Lu Cheng', a newly emerging marathon champion in China. He has been in a bit of trouble recently. He was attacked and accused of taking stimulants. The new drug is called 'strong muscle protein', and I am very interested in this drug. Interested, it could potentially cure my psoas injury.”
"Oh? Is the new drug on the market?"
"We have just signed a contract to carry out research, and it is still early for it to be launched."
"Then let me help you think of a way. Let's try some first. I'm afraid there will be side effects."
"If you can really restore your psoas muscles, there will be no side effects."
The two talked and gradually walked away.
Lu Cheng stayed and settled with the auction company. He deserved the auction price minus the commission and tax. After the settlement is completed, it will take a few days before the payment is made, because the buyer's money has not yet been fully received.
After doing this, Lu Cheng accompanied Jiang Qiuyun back to school. He carried a huge suitcase in one hand and held Jiang Qiuyun's tender little hand in his other hand, and walked out of the school leisurely.
Jiang Qiuyun turned to look at him and said, "Why do I feel like you've grown taller again?"
Lu Cheng nodded: "It has grown a little bit longer, almost 1.8 meters tall."
"Strange, how can you still grow taller?"
"I was delayed in development."
In fact, because he entered the bone refining realm, not only did his bone density increase, but his vertebrae also thickened, and he grew taller unknowingly. He has not yet reached the bone refining stage, so he will continue to grow taller in the next six months.
He feels that a height of 1.85 meters is enough, and it may be inconvenient to be taller.
The two took the high-speed train back to Daicheng.
It was already 6 o'clock in the evening when Lu Cheng sent Jiang Qiuyun home.
Huang Yingyi said: "Lu Cheng, don't leave in a hurry. Let me tell you about the preliminary research results of psoralen. My students compared and analyzed the medicinal solution you gave and the modern psoralen herb, and got several results. There are several specific active ingredients, including a protein with 86 gamma amino acids, which can greatly increase the activity of chondrocytes. Several other ingredients are still under further analysis."
Lu Cheng smiled and said, "That's a good thing."
Huang Yingyi added: "I named this protein 'gamma bone protein'. What I want to say is that the human body has 20 basic amino acids, all of which are alpha amino acids, and other types of amino acids, including beta amino acids, delta amino acids, Tha amino acids, gamma amino acids, and D amino acids are all relatively small. And a protein composed of 86 gamma amino acids is quite rare."
"Well, it's good to have a discovery. I hope it can benefit mankind."
"This is a big discovery, and it may not last long. I originally said that I would leave it to you to do your master's thesis, but I'm afraid it's not realistic at the moment."
"It doesn't matter, I can still find other experimental materials."
"Do you have any other goodies?"
"We'll wait a minute. You first complete the research on Psoralen."
"Lu Cheng, come here often when you have time!"
"Okay, aunt, bye."
After closing the door, Huang Yingyi asked her daughter: "Why are you back so late? I thought you would arrive in the morning."
Jiang Qiuyun replied: "Mom, I accompanied Lu Cheng to an auction."
"What did you buy?"
"He didn't buy anything. He sold two bracelets and two ring faces. What do you think the final income was?"
"I can't guess, please tell me honestly."
"After deducting commissions and taxes, you can still get 22 million!"
Huang Yingyi was surprised: "Huh? Why so many?" She thought that withholding the authorization money, Lu Cheng would not be able to spend a lot of time and alcohol. Who knew that this kid had other ways to make money!
Jiang Qiuyun said: "On the way back, I heard him say that the last time he went to Guangzhou to compete, he won another stone and cut out more than a dozen bracelets."
"Humph, I didn't expect that he was a bad gambler! Don't you know that I hate gambling the most! One year, your dad went to Ruili, Yunnan with his friends and spent 30,000 yuan to buy two gambling stones. When they were cut out, they were all garbage. He hid this from me for several times Years ago, after a drinking session, his friend leaked the secret, and I found out!"
Jiang Qiuyun stuck out her tongue: "Mom, Lu Cheng said he has a secret and can tell the quality of stones."
"That's nonsense. There are billions of people in the world, and everyone else is doing nothing for them? Is he the only one who has the secret?"
"Okay, let's leave him alone. Mom, let me tell you something."
"What's the matter? You're still young, you can't get married now."
"Mom, what are you talking about! What kind of marriage am I getting? Let me tell you, I wrote a book..."
In fact, after 2027, due to the insufficient birth rate, the country has adjusted the marriage law. As long as you are over 18 years old, if you want to get married, you will be encouraged by the country.
Huang Yingyi heard that her daughter had written a romance novel and posted it on the Internet. She didn't take it seriously at first, but then she was shocked when she heard that she was earning millions a month.
"Can I make money by writing novels? I'm a university professor and my monthly income is less than 40,000 yuan! What's wrong with the world?"
"Mom, that's just old-fashioned thinking. My book has been published and I will have a book signing in Modu in two days. I want Lu Cheng to accompany me. In addition, the website is contacting film and television productions. Maybe next year, we can Saw the series.”
"Romance novels? Do you want to write a contemporary Qiong Yao? Are you complaining for nothing? Ahh... I know he loves you so painfully, and I also know you love him so painfully..."
"Giggle, it's so funny! Mom, do you like Qiong Yao's novels?"
"It's the TV series your grandma likes to watch! What about the blue sky, several red sunsets, and another dream..."
Huang Yingyi is 45 years old this year, and Jiang Qiuyun's grandma is 67 years old. She was born in 1960. As early as the 1970s and 1980s, Qiong Yao's novels and TV shows were all over the place, so she is considered a fan of Qiong Yao. By the time Huang Yingyi was in her teens, she had only seen a few works such as "Huan Zhuge Ge", and from then on Qiong Yao's influence was no longer there.
In any case, Huang Yingyi was very happy when she heard that her daughter could write novels, because in her opinion, the nursing profession is too hard. Not only does she have to work night shifts, but she also has to face various dangers, such as the COVID-19 epidemic in the past two years. -19, the people closest to danger are the paramedics.
As soon as she was happy, she picked up the phone and called the Lu family: "Yuqiu, it's almost the Chinese New Year. Let's get together as a family? Tomorrow at 7 o'clock? Lu Caigen? Okay, it's settled!"
