Translator: BeetleBarker Editor: Tennesh
Great-Grandfather Fang Fang felt that among all his descendants, the one most like him was Fang Zhao . As for the others, who were they like? Great-Grandfather Fang Fang glanced at his old wife .
"In any case, they aren't like me," Great-Grandfather Fang Fang muttered to himself .
Online, even more people participated in the discussion about good luck charms . Some people felt that Fang Zhao's good luck charm had brought him good fortune, and these people wanted a similar model, but at the same time, they were also worried . What if they became unlucky afterward?
"I think it's better to wait first . Let's wait and see how Fang Zhao does later before buying . It's not like we need it immediately . "
"Then let's wait first? In any case, the second round of examinations is approaching . We can decide again after the results are out . "
"My demands aren't high . Furthermore, I have an examination coming up . I'll buy it first . "
At Qi'an City's Cemetery of Martyrs, there were suddenly a lot of people buying protective amulets, and the protective amulets they wanted to but were the ones Fang Zhao had used . However, it just so happen that this version was out of stock . Previously, as there had been few people buying this, those in charge of the Cemetery had not kept much stock .
The rarer something was, the more valuable it tended to be . As stock was low and not many people managed to buy it, this protective amulet's price was jacked up in a short time . As quantity was low while demand and prices were high, there were inevitably people blinded by greed that took an alternative path: counterfeiting .
In the eyes of those who made counterfeits, the paper quality was just slightly inferior and the painting looked exactly the same . How could they count as counterfeits?
But buyers did not approve of it .
In the Old Era, there was a word: "consecrate"!
An amulet that hadn't gone through a consecration ritual or been created in the Cemetery was a fake! No matter how good quality of the materials used, it was still a fake!
Thus, relevant departments started combating counterfeits . The Cemetery also had their own countermeasures, so genuine and fake goods could still be differentiated .
As for Fang Zhao, who had given rise to this series of counterfeiting and anti-counterfeiting, he had no time to be bothered about all this . After receiving the notification for the second stage of examinations, he was called over by Xue Jing to undergo a week of training . Afterward, he would head to Huangzhou to participate in the second round of exams .
More than 100,000 people had applied to take the examinations, and after going through three rounds of preliminary exams, the number of people with the qualifications to sit for the second stage was only 1000 . Of the 90-plus from Yanzhou that had passed the preliminaries, Fang Zhao was the youngest .
This time, Fang Zhao did not let the company arrange any other assistants and, as before, brought along Zuo Yu and Yan Biao . These two took turns being a driver and an assistant .
"Boss, are we really not bringing Curly Hair along? Won't he feel lonely if he is left alone at home?" Zuo Yu asked .
"He won't," Fang Zhao answered firmly . With the gaming console around, Curly Hair would not find it boring .
Furthermore, if there was any danger, it would be more convenient for Curly Hair to handle it himself . If someone was dispatched to stay home and watch him, Curly Hair's actions might be restricted .
After arriving in Huangzhou, Fang Zhao's presence declined drastically . His influence here was a far cry from his influence in Yanzhou . However, since he had frequently been appearing online recently, Fang Zhao still wore a cap .
During this season, Huangzhou's weather was slightly hotter . Inside Huangzhou Institute of Art, many students walking on campus were sporting hats too . Furthermore, Fang Zhao kept a low profile so he appeared less conspicuous .
"Hey, Boss, make the most of your time to study . Leave any errands to us," said Yan Biao .
This time, Yan Biao and Zuo Yu both had assignments . Silver Wing, Great-Grandfather Fang, Xue Jing, and others had all privately sought the two out to have them run more errands . This way, Fang Zhao would have time to adjust to the time difference and prepare for his examinations .
So after arriving at Huangzhou Institute of Art, Zuo Yu ran off to inquire about the necessary procedures for exam candidates and to learn how the school arranged its exam candidates room and board . Yan Biao followed by Fang Zhao's side and towed the luggage and bags .
Fang Zhao had wanted to carry his own bags, but Yan Biao hadn't let him .
Let boss carry a bag? How could a salted fish fetching such a high salary have the cheek to allow that? This was such a rare opportunity to display his usefulness, so naturally, he couldn't let it slip by .
The sun was extremely glaring . Fang Zhao pointed at a building with walls that seemed to be entirely made of transparent glass not too far away . "Let's sit over there and wait . "
The building that Fang Zhao had pointed out was a library mainly for guests . The first floor was primarily a rest area and was slightly more lively . The people seated on this floor were mostly people who had stopped on the way for a rest .
After finding a spot to sit down, Yan Biao put down all the bags and luggage . When he saw that Fang Zhao wanted to go buy a drink, he hurriedly exclaimed, "Let me, let me!"
Yan Biao ran to buy a drink while Fang Zhao sat on the chair and gazed out of the transparent glass at students that were walking by outside .
HuangArt students all had a sort of haughtiness . Even though they maintained their fundamental etiquette and did not spare any honorifics, one could sense haughtiness from their expressions and speech .
That was understandable . As top-notch institute seeped in artistic influences with many specially privileged people, this was very normal . Fortunately, they wouldn't look down on people without any reason . This was also part of their upbringing .
Taking a further look at the interior, there were many green plant ornaments and wood-colored furniture all around . Even if that furniture wasn't really manufactured out of wood and those lush green plants were merely man-made air purifiers, when put together, they gave off a very peaceful vibe . Upstairs was a small library collection open to the public . Paperback books could be borrowed here as well, but at a fee .
While Fang Zhao was taking the measure of his surroundings, Yan Biao returned from purchasing drinks . There were too many people today and he had even needed to queue up .
After drinking some water, Fang Zhao said, "I'll be heading up to take a look . "
"All right, I will just sit here . If you want to buy anything, you can send me a message straight away . " Yan Biao indicated that he would not wander off and would be on standby at all times .
When Fang Zhao went up, Yan Biao sorted out some of the luggage and wiped the sweat off his forehead . While drinking some water, he thought about his performance in the morning . Seems all right, mhm . I can feel at ease and rest for a bit .
