Asking Immortals: From the Republic of China to Marvel

Thinking of this, Ye Qing couldn't help but turn his eyes to Lao Wan, who was sitting at the table against the wall, drinking beer and playing with a small delicate object in his hand.

"Max!"

"Huh? What's wrong, Ye Qing?"

Lao Wan was in a daze when he was suddenly woken up by Ye Qing's call. He was secretly confused and asked at the same time.

"It's not okay for you to be in a daze in the store like this every day. There is an academic seminar at the University of Pennsylvania in the afternoon. You should attend on behalf of the Lord.

Going out more often can help soothe your mood. By the way, Director Richard, after the academic seminar, there should be a cocktail party, right? ! "

"some!"

Hearing Ye Qing's inquiry, Richard answered with great discernment. After all, there were only three people in the store, and if neither of them went, it would have to fall on Lao Wan.

"How about Max? Free dinner and wine too!"

"Then...okay~"

Lao Wan was still in a state of confusion when he heard this, but when he heard that there was free dinner and wine, it was not a wasted trip, so he agreed. Anyway, there was nothing to do in the store that required him to be busy, so he just took it as a It's time to relax.

"In that case, Mr. Marx can follow me to school first. The academic seminar will start in an hour!"

"Let's go~"

"Okay, my car is outside, please, Mr. Marx!"

"Ah."

Seeing the two of them going out, Ye Qing turned around and went back upstairs to focus on the carving process, while Luo Gen took out a cigarette.

I lit it and took a nice sip, with a pleasant smile on my face. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that my life is now carefree, and those wars and killings are long gone.

"Uncle Logan, how much does this beautiful bracelet cost?"

"Huh? Oh~ you said this, this was selected by Master Zimu himself, and it took another seven, seven and forty-nine days..."

Luo Gen, who was smoking comfortably, was interrupted by a well-behaved freshman girl. Then Luo Gen used the business skills taught by Ye Wentian and started to fool him one by one... bah ~ introduction.

In the end, the original price was increased by two levels, but he said that beautiful ladies would enjoy a 15% discount. In fact, he earned a few cents more.

The well-behaved freshman girl was seduced by Luo Gen's Chun Chun, and was deceived. She thought she had really taken advantage of her, happily paid the money, and went out happily with the bracelet.

……

After arriving at the University of Pennsylvania, Lao Wan followed Richard and walked around the school for more than ten minutes before arriving at the one-hectare conference hall of the medical school.

At this time, it was only about half an hour before the academic seminar started. Under the leadership of Richard, Lao Wan found the seat where Xuanyuan Zimu's identity card was placed.

After Richard left to do other things, the bored old Wan began to look around. Sitting on the left and right were some influential people in Pennsylvania, judging by their appearance.

Because of the names written on the ID tags on their desk, Lao Wan had a rough impression. Having lived in Alfred for more than two months, he naturally had a rough understanding of the city and even the state of Pennsylvania.

As for why people from school do not sit with people from school, but schools and social classes are interspersed, it is naturally for the purpose of socializing.

Ye Wentian is quite famous in Philadelphia. Fortunately, the people sitting around Lao Wan were all from other cities in Pennsylvania, and they didn't know much about Xuanyuan Zimu's identity.

He only knew that he was the honorary president of the University of Pennsylvania, and he started to be polite to Lao Wan. Lao Wan, who had experienced ups and downs in his life, could naturally cope with it easily.

Soon during the chat, the academic seminar began. After the audience fell silent, the current president of the University of Pennsylvania came to the front and delivered a speech.

Mainly, they talked about how the two universities will always share the same interests, how important this academic symposium is, and what kind of changes it will bring to the future academic world.

Amid the applause of the crowd, the seminar entered its main body. First, biology professors from the two universities took the stage to publish their respective research results.

Then there are the postgraduate students of professors from their respective schools, who will have more in-depth and detailed discussions based on the research results of those professors.

The focus of this meeting was the subsequent school cooperation project, which was closely related to scientific research results, the school's weight in the US empire, and its own interests.

With the announcement of each cooperation project, the academic seminar finally came to an end amid warm cheers from the audience.

Lao Wan also woke up from the state of being about to fall asleep. The next step should be the free dinner and wine that he was most looking forward to. Participating in this kind of meeting was completely torturous.

After all, he had been confused all afternoon and it would be a shame for him not to eat or drink. At the same time, Lao Wan swore that he would not attend such an inexplicable meeting next time no matter how Ye Qing deceived him.

"I declare that this academic seminar has ended successfully. Guests, please don't leave in a hurry. The school has prepared sumptuous food and wine for everyone..."

During the announcement of the current president of the University of Pennsylvania, Lao Wan followed the crowd to a specially decorated and extremely luxurious on-campus restaurant.

The dark red color scheme, psychedelic lights, the rows of sumptuous food on the dining carts, various leather sofas and crystal ornaments all add to the lively atmosphere.

A small number of guests left after the meeting, but most of the others came here, including the upper echelons of Pennsylvania, as well as professors and graduate students from the two schools.

Lao Wan couldn't care less about socializing with these ordinary people who didn't have extraordinary powers. He picked up a dinner plate and started to eat food.

In order to receive these upper-class people, the University of Pennsylvania specially invited the most famous hotel chef in Philadelphia, and even the steaks were freshly fried.

After the dinner plate was filled with a variety of lobsters, abalone and other seafood, as well as black truffles and barbecue, Lao Wan, carrying a bottle of ice-cold Veuve Clicquot champagne, casually found a mahogany table in the corner and sat down.

Ignoring all the gentle chatter like whispers present, under the support of soft music, the flower blossoms began.

"Charles, I'm not Professor Justin's graduate student. Is it really okay to sneak in and eat and drink like this?"

"Aren't you in a bad mood recently? So I brought you here to relax."

Standing next to a dining cart dozens of meters away from Lao Wan, this was a conversation between a sweet-looking girl and another handsome boy who was no more than 20 years old.

Upon hearing Charles's reply, Raven's expression flashed with confusion and displeasure, and then she asked:

"Didn't you promise not to check my memories?"

"No, not really. I know you very well. We are old friends. I can know what you are thinking without checking your memory."
