From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 246

Chapter 246: Chapter 159: Time for the Landing Net

Su Chen and Old Man Chen didn’t discuss anything important during their phone call. After all, they both knew talking about that particular matter over the phone wasn’t wise.

Su Chen didn’t directly agree to Old Man Chen’s request to meet in person, either.

He just said that he had things to take care of for the next few days and they could schedule a time after he was done.

Recalling the flustered and exasperated sound of Old Man Chen’s voice on the other end before he hung up, the corners of Su Chen’s mouth lifted even higher.

Catching a big fish requires patience. You don’t yank the line with all your might from the get-go; you have to slowly wear the fish down before you can reel it in.

Old Man Chen was the big fish that had just taken the bait. Only by wearing him out until he was gasping for air could Su Chen truly make him useful. After all, controllable nuclear fusion technology was too earth-shattering to reveal all at once, even if the system claimed it was for civilian use.

That afternoon, Su Chen and Chen Fei didn’t stay in the hotel. Instead, they went out to experience the rich historical heritage of the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties, even having the hotel arrange a car to get them around.

Their first stop was, of course, the Terracotta Army. Su Chen chose it as their first destination because he wanted to see for himself just how magnificent the army, hailed as one of the Eight Wonders of the World, truly was.

As for places like the Giant and Small Wild Goose Pagodas, the Bell Tower, the Drum Tower, and the ancient city district, he planned to visit them later when he had the time.

The Terracotta Army Museum was only about fifty kilometers from the hotel. With a bit of speed, they could make it in under an hour.

"Sir, we’re at Lishan now. Would you like to go take a look?"

Hearing Chen Fei, Su Chen looked up from his phone in the back seat. Through the car window, he could just make out the billboard for the Lishan Scenic Area.

"Lishan? What’s so great about it? The only famous thing there is the Huaqing Pool where Yang Guifei bathed. I read online that it’s just a stone pit with nothing inside. Now, if they put the original jade stones back, it might be worth a look."

Chen Fei took the hint that Su Chen wasn’t interested and said no more.

It wasn’t far to the Terracotta Army after passing Lishan. By the time they arrived, it was just after two in the afternoon.

But even at this hour, there was an endless stream of visitors. Everywhere you looked, there was a sea of people.

What surprised Su Chen even more was the considerable number of foreigners among the tourists.
