Chapter 2 The Complete Version of Tao Te Ching, Planning for the Future

"Hello.

Lu Yuan picked up the phone and answered.

"Mr. Lu?"

A heavy voice came from the other end of the receiver: "I just got off the plane, and the formalities are all done."

"Well, the pass from Christie's has been arranged, the hotel has been booked, and there is enough money on the card. Remember, no matter what, you must get the things. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me."

Lu Yuan's voice was calm, and he explained a lot of things in one breath.

Christie's.

One of the most famous auction houses in the world.

The auction items bring together rare artworks from all over the world.

And this auction happened to have something that Lu Yuan needed.

So he found a professional and asked the other party to go abroad to get the things.

"Yes, Mr. Lu. ”

The other party responded, asked a few more questions, and then hung up the phone.

Lu Yuan took a sip of red wine, opened the album on his phone, and flipped through a few photos.

The photo showed a yellowed ancient Chinese book, but it was not ordinary Chinese characters, but oracle bones from ancient times. After being identified by foreign ancient text experts, it was suspected to be related to the "Tao Te Ching" written by Lao Tzu, and it was at least two thousand years old.

It was unearthed in China a hundred years ago, and later flowed overseas due to war. After several twists and turns, it was acquired by Christie's.

Not long ago, the news was released that it would soon become one of the items in this auction.

Originally.

The appearance of this kind of thing will definitely cause heated discussions in China.

However, Chinese experts think that the book may have been forged by the ancients, because no matter the number of words or chapters, it is quite different from the "Tao Te Ching" handed down. Except for the age, the research value is not very great.

But only Lu Yuan knew that the one at Christie's was the complete version of the Tao Te Ching.

Everyone thought that the book had only eighty-one chapters.

But in fact, it had one hundred and eight chapters.

What was handed down in China was only a fragment, and the most important part had long been missing.

After the global anomaly in the previous life, Lu Yuan, who had long been reduced to a minor character, had heard that there was a great man who had comprehended the complete version of the Tao Te Ching, tempered his body and soul to the extreme, had the power to shake the stars, and his soul could communicate with the gods, and walked in the star field. It was a truly supreme scripture, and its value was no less than that of the ancient Bodhi tree in India!

Since I have decided to make up for the shortcomings in this life and strive for the highest.

The complete version of the Tao Te Ching is definitely an indispensable part.

"The ancient Bodhi tree cost nearly 100 million, and Christie's spent at least tens of millions. If it were an ordinary person, it would really be unbearable. "After turning off the phone, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

Same as before rebirth.

He is now also a rich second generation.

His parents died in a car accident a year ago, leaving behind a fortune of 10 billion.

The difference is that in the previous life, after inheriting the family business, he only knew how to squander it without considering the future.

Although this property is enough to support his extravagant life, but later the world changed, strength was respected, the weak were the prey of the strong, and all the money became waste paper and had no use.

In the previous life, Lu Yuan went from an unrestrained rich second generation to a small role.

Even if there were some encounters, there was no way to change anything.

After experiencing the era of the strong preying on the weak.

Dignity was trampled on at will.

He clearly knew how important strength was. Without strength, he would be bullied.

So after rebirth, Lu Yuan immediately He began to plan for the future, selling off all kinds of family property, cashing out crazily, and lowering the price. The mysterious Shanghai tycoon who sold a large number of stocks and real estate in the news before was himself.

This move was undoubtedly extremely stupid in the eyes of outsiders, after all, the assets left by his parents were all good assets.

Selling them meant losing at least several million a day.

But Lu Yuan didn't care.

More than a month later, the world changed, and how much property was useless.

In the new era, it's not money that matters, but yourself.

For example, the villa he lives in now is also one of the inheritances. He bought it just to have a quiet life.

After his rebirth, he made some changes, with the purpose of having a base to prepare silently in the next period of time.

"Now that the ancient Bodhi tree is in hand, there should be no surprises with the complete version of the Tao Te Ching. The next thing is other magical objects after the changes. "Lu Yuan calmed down, his mind turned rapidly, and one plan after another emerged.

That's right, these two things alone are not enough.

He had to collect as many supreme divine objects as he knew before the change.

In this way, he would be able to deal with all possible crises after the advent of the new era.

Then he would be one step ahead, step by step, ahead of everyone!

Buzz buzz buzz.

At this time, the phone suddenly vibrated, interrupting Lu Yuan's thoughts.

He picked it up and saw that it was a class group chat from his college days.

Li Sisi: It's almost the first anniversary of graduation, and our classmates haven't gathered for a long time.

Wang Zibo: Yes, x-on:Li Hansheng, does the class monitor have any plans?

Li Hansheng: Of course, I have already booked a room at Yunzhong Hotel, a one-stop service for eating, drinking and having fun, everyone must remember to come.

Li Sisi: Wow, isn't that the best five-star hotel in Shanghai? It costs tens of thousands a day, the class monitor is too expensive.

Chen Song: x-on:Li Hansheng, that class monitor, do we have to pay a membership fee?

Li Hansheng: No, Zhou Yunqiong will also come this time. Yunzhong Hotel is her family's property. We have already made arrangements. Just have fun.

Wang Zibo: What? Goddess Zhou Yunqiong is coming? Then I will definitely not be absent.

Chen Song: Me too. I haven't seen classmate Zhou for a long time.

Zhang Wei: Will definitely come!

Zhao Pengfei: +1.

Qian Gang: +1.

All the male classmates: +1.

Li ​​Sisi: Look, everyone is showing up when they heard that Yunqiong is coming. This is the face of you boys.

Li Hansheng: Li Sisi, what are you talking about? We are not the happiest ones, but someone else.

Wang Zibo: Here x-on:Lu Yuan.

All the classmates: Here x-on:Lu Yuan

Li Sisi: Yes, classmate Lu has liked Yunqiong for four years. I'm afraid he must be very excited now, right?

Li Hansheng: x-on:Lu Yuan, don't be invisible. Come out and show up whether you are going or not!

Looking at a long string of messages on the phone.

Lu Yuan shook his head and threw his phone aside.

If he had been interested in this kind of thing in his previous life, he would have responded enthusiastically, but now he didn't care at all. After all, time was tight, and the so-called class reunion was completely meaningless to him.

As for the girl he liked, after experiencing the global mutation and various bloody battles.

Lu Yuan no longer cared about this kind of feelings.

There was no need to reply.

But soon, just as he was about to get up and leave, his eyes suddenly moved.

He immediately picked up the phone again, opened the chat software, and slowly typed a word: "Go."

The reason for changing his mind was simple. He thought of something he needed, which was related to this classmate opportunity, so he had to go.

After doing this.

Lu Yuan stopped thinking.

He turned around and walked directly into the fitness area in the villa and started exercising.

There was still more than a month before the global mutation, and he had a lot to do before that.

For example, some divine objects could not be bought by sitting at home, and he had to go there in person. Some places were still very dangerous, so Lu Yuan had to have a strong physique.
