40 million.
Lu Yu gently knocked on the table.
Old Man Wang was very honest. Although he did not specifically evaluate the value of this Water Gall Amber, Lu Yu could hear the meaning in his words just now.
The value of this Water Gall Amber might far exceed his previous imagination.
40 million seemed like a shocking number, but according to Elder Wang's understanding, if it was auctioned at a cross-border auction, it would at least double…or even triple.
Lu Yu sighed.
Why did he have to do this kind of multiple-choice question related to money for the past two days?
He was in a difficult position!
Seeing Lu Yu sigh, Elder Wang's eyes instantly dimmed.
Of course, he also knew that this price was really too low for this Water Gall Amber.
But what could he do?
The budget allocated by the dynasty could only be used for this.
Even if he applied on the spot, it would take at least half a year for the approval to be approved.
At that time, even the daylily would be cold.
Looking at the piece of water amber on the screen, Elder Wang felt his heart ache.
If…if he could study it personally…
How good would that be!
Elder Wang lowered his head. Just as he was thinking about how to respond to the rejection so that it would not be so awkward, Lu Yu's clear voice was heard.
"Sure."
"Sigh, I know that our budget is too low. It's reasonable for you to not agree…Wait a minute?？”
Elder Wang did not hear what Lu Yu said clearly and began to recite the lines by himself. He only realized that something was wrong halfway through.
This comrade Lu Yu…just said, okay?？
He said yes?
Does this mean that we can sell this piece of Water Bile Amber to the Imperial Institute of Geology for 40 million?？
His eyes, which had already dimmed, instantly lit up again. Old Master Wang trembled a little as he grabbed the display screen in front of him tightly and asked with anticipation,
"Comrade Little Lu, what did you just say? Can you say that again? I didn't hear you clearly just now…"
Looking at Elder Wang's excited expression and thinking about the indescribable disappointment he felt when he thought he would reject him, Lu Yu already understood that Elder Wang was really an old scientist who had dedicated his entire life to science.
He wanted this stone to be impersonal. He just wanted to study the composition contained in it to explore the ancient history that was still blank to modern people.
Lu Yu could not refuse such an old scientist's sincere plea.
Moreover, he really did not want foreign organizations to have the possibility of obtaining this stone.
According to Elder Wang, everything about that era was blank.
If he could analyze the substance in this piece of amber, he might be able to fill in this gap.
Although Yanxia Empire was a rather large empire, it was still lacking compared to other developed countries, especially in terms of scientific research.
He was already being suppressed by other countries. Lu Yu did not want his rare discovery to fuel the arrogance of other countries.
Therefore, after much consideration, he decided to sell this piece of water amber to the Imperial Institute of Geology.
"Elder Wang, you don't have to be so excited. I did promise you just now that I would sell this piece of water amber to the Imperial Institute of Geology.”
Seeing that Elder Wang's face was flushed with excitement, Lu Yu hurriedly tried to dissuade him, afraid that the old man would be too excited and something would happen to his body.
Then he would really be a sinner.
"Moreover, I have a condition. I can sell this piece of Water Gall Amber to the Institute of Geology, but I have a small condition.”
Lu Yu said.
"Tell me, tell me, as long as it's not too much, I can make the decision to agree to it!”
"It's not a particularly excessive request. I just hope that in the future, if I need the help of the Institute of Geology, you can help me unconditionally.”
"We can, but we're a geological research institute. What we usually do is geological exploration, mineral analysis, and so on. Are you sure you can use it?”
Elder Wang asked with some doubt.
"That's right. I'm sure that's the kind of help I need. If I need it, can you help me unconditionally?”
Lu Yu asked.
"No problem."
Elder Wang thought for a moment and nodded."I can apply to the higher-ups to give you an honorary title of the Institute of Geology of the Imperium. That way, if you have any needs, you can talk to me directly and I will arrange and help you.”
"No problem."
Lu Yu nodded and smiled.
The condition that Elder Wang had agreed to had actually exceeded Lu Yu's psychological expectations. He originally thought that as long as the Imperial Institute of Geology signed a small contract with him to help, it would be fine.
Now that Elder Wang said that he would help him apply for an honorary title, he could directly talk to Elder Wang if he had any requests in the future. It should be more convenient than the way he had thought of before.
However, what was Elder Wang's position in the Imperial Institute of Geography?
Why did it feel like he could make decisions for everything?
Lu Yu took a look at the video chat screen. While Elder Wang was arranging work with his assistant, he secretly opened the search engine of the browser.
He entered the keywords "Wang Chen from the Institute of Geology of the Empire" into the search box.
Then…he clicked on the search button!
The search results popped up very quickly. However, when he looked at the photo of the unsmiling Elder Wang on the search encyclopedia and then looked at the title on the encyclopedia under his photo, Lu Yu was stunned.
It was written:
It was Wang Chen, the director of the Imperial Institute of Geology and an honorary academician of the Imperial Academy of Sciences!
