“I am willing, and I am willing to give up 50% of the profits. If the descendants do not fulfill the agreement, you can give the technology to others... I can sign contracts for all of this.”

"My lord, I am also willing."

……

"Thank you all very much." Shen Qingyan bowed and then drafted the terms. After everyone was assigned the technology and signed the contract, they all left happily.

Then Constable Cheng came in to report, "Sir, Physician Zhao has arrived and is packing his luggage in the backyard. Please go and have him take your pulse again carefully. Perhaps Physician Zhao can save you."

As he spoke, Constable Cheng pulled Shen Qingyan hurriedly toward the backyard. "Doctor Zhao is the best doctor in the Great Huang Dynasty. Others may not be able to help, but he certainly can."

Shen Qingyan was well aware of her own situation and did not have any expectations, but she did not want to offend Constable Cheng, so she cooperated and hurriedly went to the backyard.

Zhao Liangyi had just put his things down when he came out, and the two groups bumped into each other. So they sat down in the backyard, and Shen Qingyan stretched out his left hand.

After carefully taking Shen Qingyan's pulse, Zhao Liangyi observed her pupils, complexion, tongue coating, and lip color. He sighed and said, "It's true that you've been worrying too much, and your body was already severely depleted before, which is why you fell ill so suddenly. If you do nothing from now on and just focus on recuperating, I can guarantee you'll live for another year."

Chief Constable Cheng was alarmed. What? Even Physician Zhao can only guarantee that the adult will live for a year?

A year...that's far too short.

"What if we continue to work so hard?" Shen Qingyan asked again, even with a smile on his face, seemingly unconcerned about death.

His optimism impressed even Zhao Liangyi, who remarked, "Then you only have three months left, and your leg ailment will only get worse. You might end up as a cripple."

The top scholar who was all the rage a few years ago, is still young now, yet he is about to die like this... It truly is a case of heaven being jealous of talent.

Doctor Zhao shook his head with great regret, "Although I know I can't persuade you, I still hope you will prioritize yourself and do something for yourself."

"Yes, sir, Physician Zhao is right. You have already done enough for everyone. Your final moments are..."

"I am doing this for everyone, and also for my own grand ambition. If I cannot achieve it, I fear I will never be able to sleep peacefully for the rest of my life. Three months it is. If I can win the first battle of this new policy, even if I die, I will have no fear or regret."

Shen Qingyan interrupted Constable Cheng, then said to Doctor Zhao, "I'll have to trouble you for the next three months. Please rest well, I have other things to attend to."

"Alright, sir, take care. I will make sure that you can walk around like a normal person for the next three months without feeling any pain. However, you will become increasingly thin until you are completely exhausted."

Respecting Shen Qingyan's wishes, Dr. Zhao had seen it all in his life, from birth to old age, sickness and death, and had witnessed countless storms. Fearing that Constable Cheng might become flustered out of concern, he quickly stopped him, saying, "Constable Cheng, you stay and get the prescription to get the medicine."

Constable Cheng had no choice but to stay, but he looked dejected.

After thanking him, Shen Qingyan turned and left. He still had 45 trading opportunities left, which should be enough to transform Xilan County into the way he wanted it to be.

But time was of the essence, and he had to work even faster.

modern.

Two official news items suddenly appeared, startling all the night owls in the middle of the night.

[The Kyoto Museum will exhibit precious artifacts donated by a mysterious collector, Ms. G, in three days. These artifacts all come from the collection before the destruction of the Summer Palace in 1860, including "Forty Views" and "Admonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladies." (Images: jpg)]

Everyone suspected they were seeing things or that the authorities had made a mistake and released the wrong information.

[Haha, as far as I know, these things do exist, but they're currently in a foreign museum. Does the Kyoto Museum exhibit replicas?]

[Yes, we haven't found a complete set of the twelve sculptures yet. Do we have a complete set now?]

[Who on duty is this anyway? Did they write this in their sleep? Which staff member at the Kyoto Museum could have made such a mess of things? Hahaha, this world really is a huge makeshift operation.]

Just wait, within ten minutes, the Kyoto Museum will have to apologize for the mistake, and then an intern will resign.

……

An hour later, the Kyoto Museum released twenty new photos of the artifacts and a link to buy tickets on its official Weibo account: "[The first day of the exhibition is limited to 8 hours, with only 3000 places available]."

Meanwhile, other official accounts also expressed their support, saying they would buy tickets for the team building event.

Netizens were stunned; with so many official accounts involved, it couldn't possibly be fake.

Does anyone know what's going on? How did these vanished artifacts suddenly reappear? What did the government do behind the scenes that we don't know about? It's all so sudden.

[I can only say awesome! I've already got a ticket. Even if it's fake, I'm going to see what's going on.]

[Wait a minute, I just saw the original at a museum this morning. It's definitely still at someone else's house. I'll go check at that museum right away. Stay tuned for my update.]

[Damn, five minutes! Tickets for the entire week are sold out! Who moved so fast?]

……

Half an hour later, the netizen, Xiaoqincai, arrived at a British museum. Upon entering the museum, she found the officially published "Admonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladies" scroll and discovered that the painting was still hanging there in good condition. Her excitement subsided.

She took the photo and posted it on her Instagram.

Suddenly, a tourist next to her shouted, "OMG! Look, what happened!"

She turned around to look and saw that the "Admonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladies" scroll was dissolving into ashes at a speed visible to everyone; half of the scroll had already been destroyed.

More and more tourists around noticed it, and they all took out their phones to record this strange and wonderful process, letting out screams of surprise.

"My God, who performed a ritual? This is so cool."

"hat's going on? It's so outrageous!"

“50628;47560;48744;47532;50752;!”

……

Soon, the British museum closed its doors and alarms blared, but right before their eyes, several more artifacts were reduced to ashes.

But the fly ash also disappeared into the anti-theft display case, as if nothing had ever been placed inside.

The director and staff of a certain British museum: !!!

This is witchcraft from the land of China, it's definitely their witchcraft!

……

Netizen "Xiaoqincai" typed so furiously on her phone that her hands were almost blurry, and immediately posted the video on Instagram and Weibo: "[The 'Admonitions Scroll' is gone overseas now; it's a miracle. Who can understand the shock of seeing it in person?]"

Besides her, many other netizens in the same venue were also posting: "[The Shang Dynasty bronze double-ram zun and the Jingdezhen kiln blue-and-white porcelain elephant-ear vase with cloud and dragon design also disappeared right in front of me!]"
