Yuanyuan found it amusing, "Why are you looking for the ancient tomb? He’s long gone, already dead. What useful information do you think you can find?"
Then she saw a middle-aged man; they were all one family. Their thoughts were the sa.
In fact, Yuanyuan knew they couldn’t be held for too long.
The middle-aged man was more straightforward than the old man. Indeed, all families are like this; when parents are too capable, the children end up being less so than the previous generation.
Yuanyuan didn’t ask these two people any questions, just listened to Shao Hongming’s questions.
While waiting for the third person, "Yuanyuan, do you see any differences between them?"
"I don’t think they’ll be held for long either. Honestly, I don’t really believe they’re after treasure."
"Hmm, I have the sa feeling."
"There are two more people. Let’s talk after we see them."
This ti, they brought up a young woman who looked particularly pleasant.
This young woman answered whatever Shao Hongming asked. It didn’t differ from her previous testimony.
Yuanyuan took quite a liking to her, "Comrade, I was thinking that since you’re familiar with this place, could you join us in excavating the tomb? Of course, you must ensure you have no ulterior motives."
"Comrade, I can’t make that decision; it has to be decided by my grandfather."
Yuanyuan knew the young woman was telling the truth. It seed she really didn’t know.
The last person was the younger brother of the previous young woman, just a year younger.
This person looked especially attractive, at least to Yuanyuan’s eyes.
Moreover, his mind seed quite pure.
The main four people had been seen, and neither Yuanyuan nor Shao Hongming had left.
"Shao Hongming, I have an idea, to let their family participate. Of course, there would be requirents for them."
"Why?"
"Because I think they’ve been studying the tomb for quite a while. They know a lot, and I don’t like how archaeologists work slowly and thodically. Why not take a shortcut if we can?"
"This needs to be applied for. And we also need to consult several archaeologists."
"Do you think it’s feasible?"
"I’ll follow your lead."
"In that case, I’ll apply to the higher-ups, and you persuade the archaeologists."
"Do you really think the Zeng Family will agree?"
"Hehe, why wouldn’t they? I believe they’re from the Zongsheng Family, the Zeng Family."
"How do you know that?"
"I guessed it. Why don’t we ask the old gentleman first?"
"We should ask first. If they don’t want to, all our effort will be in vain."
"True."
Zeng Yaozu was brought over again. This ti, it was still Shao Hongming speaking.
"Alright, I agree. Can we be involved in the entire process?"
"I can’t give you an answer now; I’ll have to apply to the higher-ups."
"Honestly, I’ve studied this tomb for a long ti, and I believe it’s the burial place of my ancestors of the Zeng Family."
Shao Hongming nodded, "Wait for our news. Do we even need to explain the restrictions?"
Zeng Yaozu shook his head, "I understand. We’re not petty. I assure you that we won’t have any designs on anything inside the tomb.
However, please help us apply. If there are indeed docunts inside that belong to the Zeng Family, I hope we can make a copy."
Shao Hongming nodded, "I’ll apply, but I can’t guarantee the outco."
Yuanyuan found it amusing; this old man was really sothing. His request wasn’t excessive at all.
After Zeng Yaozu was taken away, the two of them left as well, going their separate ways.
Several archaeologists had already arrived. Shao Hongming went to find them.
Yuanyuan called Zeng Zhenqing. Since she was applying, of course, she would call him.
Zeng Zhenqing thought about what Yuanyuan said and replied, "Call in half an hour; I need to contact the relevant departnts."
"Alright, but I’ll only be here until May."
"Fine, by then, you might not even be needed. Once you leave, find a place to relax."
After Yuanyuan hung up, she sat aside, reading the newspaper while waiting.
Honestly, the hardest part now was with the common people—a fear that no matter how you explain, they might not believe.
Yuanyuan actually believed in feng shui. She also understood the people’s worries, but this wasn’t sothing she could say. After all, she had a position to uphold, and it wouldn’t be right for these words to co from her mouth.
anwhile, Shao Hongming directly found the city leaders, requesting to find two geologists and teorologists.
Then, he went to et the two leading archaeologists who had arrived.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Tang, we’ve decided to let the detained grave robbers from the Zeng Family join us.
Listen to . They believe this is the tomb of their ancestors and have been researching it for a long ti.
Honestly, this will save us a lot of ti.
Their only request is for the docunts inside. The rest has nothing to do with them.
I trust your expertise. But if there’s a shortcut, it saves a lot of ti and is way better than exploring on our own."
Shao Hongming always had a stern face when he spoke, and it was no different when talking to these two.
Being scholars, they rarely dealt with people like Shao Hongming. Even though they were reluctant, they nodded.
"We must be in charge, and if they have any thoughts, they must express them in advance."
"Alright, I understand. Everyone, we’ll leave together in a while. Please rest first, soone will co to pick you up."
Shao Hongming didn’t go to see the scientists he wanted but went to find Yuanyuan instead.
At that mont, Yuanyuan was on the phone with Zeng Zhenqing.
The higher-ups had already agreed. But it was necessary to ensure that the Zeng Family harbored no ill intentions towards the artifacts.
"Leader, I’ll keep an eye on it."
"Hmm, with Shao Hongming there, consider it as a trip for fun."
Yuanyuan chuckled, "Hmm."
After hanging up, she saw Shao Hongming standing by.
"Did they agree?"
"Yes, they agreed."
"Then great, let’s set off."
"Not yet. We need to discuss how to get the common people to agree. The people we need have already been found. Let’s go over and talk."
"The leader told everything’s in your hands. So I should relax."
"Yes, everything’s on ."
Yuanyuan saw four people there, all quite aged.
They introduced themselves to each other.
"Ladies and gentlen, you should have studied the situation there. I want to know if there’s really anything different or if the feng shui, as the commoners say, really has so truth to it?"
Actually, Shao Hongming also believed in feng shui, having studied the Taoist Heart thod since childhood.
