Chapter 223: A person with ulterior motives!(1/2)

The next day, Zhu Yu simply changed his appearance, carried a suitcase, and took a taxi to the hotel.

When he entered the door, he saw a fat white aunt at the front desk. Zhu Yu stepped forward and said:

"Please give me a room."

This hotel has a total of three floors. Because it is not in a busy location, it is only renovated rather than demolished and rebuilt.

After paying the money and getting the room card, Zhu Yu Tianqi opened his eyes, deliberately slowed down and observed in the corridor.

Nothing was found on the first floor, Zhu Yu's room was on the second floor.

When he got to the second floor, he didn't find anything either, so he had to go into the room first and put the box down.

The room is quite clean and the facilities inside can be seen to be newly updated.

After a brief rest, Zhu Yu walked up to the third floor as if he was wandering around.

Then he discovered through his clairvoyance that in the vent on the top of a room on the third floor, there was a very familiar travel bag with dozens of gold bars inside - the travel bag was already covered with a thick layer of gold.

Ash!

Thank you that no thieves came in, thank you that the boss was lazy and did not check it, and thank you that the ventilation system is powerful and keeps running!

Zhu Yu returned to his room, carried the suitcase to the front desk, and said to the white aunt:

"Can you please help me change my room to a room on the third floor? I think the second floor is not high enough."

The white aunt was a little surprised and kindly advised:

"Even if it's the third floor, you won't die if you jump off. Young people must think clearly that there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome..."

Zhu Yu was a little embarrassed. Did this aunt think she was going to jump off the building if she chose a high-rise building?

He explained:

"I just think the view will be better from the third floor. Madam, please don't worry, my family is here and my work is going smoothly. I'm not overthinking it."

The white aunt was a little skeptical, but she still changed him to a room on the third floor.

Zhu Yu gave the white aunt a ten-dollar tip and then went to the room.

After staying in the room for a while, Zhu Yu felt that everything was fine. When he was about to enter the vent from the bathroom, there was a knock on the door.

Zhu Yu thought to himself that it was a good thing he didn't get in, otherwise it would be very troublesome.

Opening the door, it was the white aunt at the front desk. She was holding a bottle of wine in her hand and said to Zhu Yu:

"Young man, if you have something you can't figure out, it will make you feel better if you drink a little."

It seemed that she still didn't believe Zhu Yu's statement.

Zhu Yu took the wine, handed the aunt another hundred dollars, and explained again:

"Thank you, ma'am. I'm really not overthinking it. I have a beautiful girlfriend and a bright future. I won't jump off a building. As you said, I won't fall to my death if I jump from this building."

The white aunt left with satisfaction. Zhu Yu put up the "Do Not Disturb" sign and entered the room with wine.

I didn’t expect this white aunt to be quite enthusiastic!

Feeling that it was almost done, Zhu Yu changed his clothes, went into the bathroom, removed the grille and window from the vent, and got in carefully.

It was relatively dark inside, so Zhu Yu crawled slowly for fear of disturbing the people in other rooms.

However, I still saw two things that were disturbing to my eyes - after all, not all those who live in hotels are as serious as Zhu Yu.

Fortunately, the other party was more immersed in his movements in the bathroom, and Zhu Yu's voice was low, so he didn't notice.

After taking his travel bag and putting it into his room, he returned to his room. Zhu Yu immediately let out a big sneeze!

There was a lot of dust in the vent earlier. Fortunately, he had a strong tolerance, otherwise he would have alerted others.

After changing back into his original clothes and throwing the dusty "work clothes" into the space, Zhu Yu counted a total of forty gold bars.

Ten kilograms, more than 600,000 US dollars.

It’s not much, but compared to the effort, the return rate is quite high.

Zhu Yu decisively checked out and left. Before leaving, Zhu Yu sincerely thanked the white aunt.

After taking a taxi back to the villa, Zhu Yu was in a good mood and planned to see how well Liang Zijie and He Chunming had repaired the bamboo slips.

When I walked to the door, I heard Liang Zijie telling He Chunming:

"Chunming, don't just read the contents of the bamboo slips, go check out the next step of preparing the medicinal solution and the materials that need to be prepared?"

When he said this, Zhu Yu was not ready to go in.

It seems that Professor Liang is a more upright person and remembers his own words relatively clearly.

Zhu Yu was quite satisfied.

In the next few days, Zhu Yu occasionally visited the restoration site and read during the day, mainly information about the Mongolian cavalry and the Han army, comparing them repeatedly in order to obtain more accurate information.

I spent the evening with Joanna, enjoying myself very much.

Five days later, Liang Zijie told Zhu Yu that the repair was completed.

Zhu Yu was a little surprised, Liang Zijie explained:

"Not every bamboo slip needs a long time to repair. In fact, these bamboo slips were simply processed after they were unearthed. Although the processing method was rough, it was the correct way. So we processed it smoothly in the later stage.

"

This shows that the tomb robber is a master, or in other words, an expert, or an insider!

But what Liang Zijie is more worried about is that if more bamboo slips in the tomb are destroyed, the loss will be huge!

Zhu Yu went to see the finished product after repair.

Seeing that a row of bamboo slips had changed from the original curls like hemp ropes and messy threads to what they are now. Although they were a little incomplete, they were at least flat and worthy of the title of "Jane". Zhu Yu couldn't help but nod.

When he subconsciously opened his eyes, his expression immediately changed!

Liang Zijie originally had a look of satisfaction on his face.

After all, he saw with his own eyes the restoration of bamboo slips that were originally almost decayed. Although most of the process was completed by his disciple He Chunming, He Chunming's skills were taught by him, so he was naturally very pleased.

However, Zhu Yu's expression changed instantly, and Liang Zijie was a little confused. He couldn't help but ask:

"Mr. Zhu, are you not satisfied with the repair results?"

Seeing Liang Zijie's dissatisfied look, Zhu Yu wondered whether the old professor was pretending to be a fool or if he really didn't know.

He looked at He Chunming again.

He Chunming was packing up tools and materials. He turned sideways and lowered his head. Zhu Yu could not see his face.

Zhu Yu opened his eyes again, scanned the box in He Chunming's hand, and then understood most of it!

This is what happened!

"It's not a matter of satisfaction or dissatisfaction."

Zhu Yu walked over, collected eleven of the thirty-four bamboo slips in the bag, and handed them to the servant waiting at the door:

"Go and give it to Cathy."

The servant responded and left.

Looking at Zhu Yu's actions, Liang Zijie was a little confused.

"Professor Liang, I think you'd better ask your assistant what he has done. Because you were introduced by Professor Wen, you are also an expert in this field in China. I believe that your character has not improved these days.

I supervise you, but what you do makes me very dissatisfied!"

"What's going on?" Liang Zijie noticed that Zhu Yu was angry, and heard Zhu Yu talking about his assistant. He turned to He Chunming and asked:

"Chunming, what did you do?"

He Chunming raised his head and asked with a confused look:

"Teacher, what haven't I done? I've been assisting you in the repair work these days and haven't done anything else?"

Zhu Yu could tell that this He Chunming slightly emphasized the word "assistance".

If you are someone who doesn’t know the reason, you will easily be misled into thinking that Liang Zijie is the mastermind behind this incident!

But with Zhu Yu's eyes open, he could easily tell that He Chunming probably did this behind Liang Zijie's back!

He took a bamboo slip left by him and handed it to Liang Zijie and said:

"Professor Liang, you can look at the material of this bamboo slip."

Although Liang Zijie was almost seventy, he was an expert in this field after all, and he became more mature with age. When Zhu Yu said this, he immediately guessed what was going on, took out his glasses, put them on, and looked at the bamboo slips carefully.

He Chunming had a look of panic on his face, and the movements of his hands were a little shaky. He opened the box and took out a box of materials. As soon as he made a move, Zhu Yu pinched his wrist:

"You'd better not move, otherwise you won't be able to afford the compensation!"

"Don't touch me! What are you doing? Teacher..." He Chunming suddenly shouted excitedly!

Liang Zijie was interrupted from his observation. He looked up and saw Zhu Yu taking the box from He Chunming's hand, with a somewhat unhappy look on his face:

"Mr. Zhu, what are you..."
