Chapter 1006: High Rewards

When the Internet was abuzz over the uncle-aunt war, in a classroom in a certain county middle school, several teachers sat next to Chen Qiuyi and took turns doing her work.

"Qiu Yi, with your grades, it's really a pity to apply for archeology..."

"Yes, any other major is better than archeology, literature, minor languages, journalism..."

"It's not that everything is better than archeology, but even if we are interested in history, don't study archeology. We should study history, world history, and historical research along the Belt and Road Initiative. They are all very popular now!"

Although history and archeology look similar, the gap between them is still very far. In many schools, archeology and history are not even in the same college, and minors/double majors are not possible.

The teachers were really kind to Chen Qiuyi, but Chen Qiuyi remained unmoved.

Is it the same as sitting with your back to the sky and sitting in the office doing research?

"Thank you teacher, I will think about it carefully."

"Teacher, I understand, I really want to be an archaeologist..."

Having said this, Chen Qiuyi still resolutely filled in her choice of archeology at Dongwon University.

With Chen Qiuyi's grades, filling in the first choice application is basically equivalent to being admitted.

Seeing Chen Qiuyi's serious look, the teachers all sighed.

Then I became happy again.

Forget it, just apply for it. No matter what, you are admitted to Dongwon University!

A golden phoenix has also flown out of our chicken coop!

Come on, let’s start singing with the gongs and drums!

Wait, it’s better to wait for the admission notice to come out first...

What are you waiting for? What do top liberal arts students consider when they are admitted?

Beat the gongs and drums and sing!

Chen Qiuyi, the liberal arts champion, also attracted a lot of attention in the society. Soon, the news spread that Chen Qiuyi had applied for archeology.

Then... it quickly became a hot topic in social news!

Archeology has always been a truly unpopular subject, even at Dongwon University.

In the entire School of Archeology, there are only over 200 people with bachelor's degrees, master's degrees, and Ph.D.s combined. On average, there are more than 20 students per year. In total, there are almost more teachers than students.

Why are there so few people applying for the exam? Of course it’s because the major is good. If the major was good, wouldn’t it be overcrowded?

Amid the debate among netizens, Chen Qiuyi answered the phone of her parents.

"Qiu Yi, why are you so disobedient? Your parents have told you so much, why don't you listen?"

"That's right. You passed the archeology exam and will suffer hardship for the rest of your life. Don't blame us for not talking about you."

"Hurry up and tell the teacher and see if you can change it?"

"Hey...his dad, please call the child's teacher quickly and ask him to change the child's wish..."

"Qiu Yi, just wait, your father has gone to ask for leave from the leader, we will go back by car..."

Chen Qiuyi listened to the panicked voice on the other side and said calmly: "Mom and Dad, you don't need to come back. I have already applied for the exam and I can't change it."

"Ah, how can that be done? Qiu Yi, go and ask the teacher to help you find a way. This is a lifelong matter."

"Let's go back to find the principal..."

Chen Qiuyi said: "Even if I can change it, I won't change it. I just like archeology. This is my ambition..."

Later, her parents said something else, roared, cried, and complained, which made Chen Qiuyi feel helpless.

Chen Qiuyi hung up the phone and sat in the classroom, silent for a long time.

I got the top score in liberal arts and was envied by everyone, but why do I still have so many worries?

On this day, people on the Internet, while watching the battle between uncles and aunts, discussed whether archeology is good or not, and whether the top liberal arts student applying for archeology is a matter of secret investment.

The feeling of eating watermelon, drinking ice tea, and sipping ice cream is not to mention how happy you are in this hot summer day.

But all this has nothing to do with Chen Qiuyi, she still has to help her grandma go to the fields.

The next afternoon, when Chen Qiuyi returned home from the fields, the phone rang again.

"Mom and Dad, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I have already decided..." Chen Qiuyi felt helpless when she saw the call from her parents.

"Yes, yes, Qiu Yi, you are right to do this. My parents didn't understand before..."

"What parents don't understand, it's you who don't understand. I have already said that my daughter has her own opinion, and she is right to listen to her. You must ask me to call her and ask her to change her choice, no matter what!"

"Qiu Yi, you must study hard..."

Chen Qiuyi looked confused.

What exactly happened?

Why is there such a big difference in the performance of parents?

After hanging up the phone, Chen Qiuyi saw her best friend rushing in from outside: "Qiuyi, something big happened, did you see it?

"What did you see?" Chen Qiuyi, whose skin was red from the sun, tangled her hair.

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai, Xiaobai...Xiaobai bought "Qi Wang Yi Shu" and donated it to Mr. Zou!"

"Ah?! Really?" Chen Qiuyi was really happy.

For several days, whenever Chen Qiuyi closed her eyes, she would look like Mr. Zou with tears streaming down her face.

Great, this old man must be very happy! Xiaobai is so awesome! Xiaobai is so kind to the teacher. I am so touched that I want to cry...

"Also, the Archaeological Association awarded the uncle who discovered the Haitai more than 20 million yuan!"

More than 20 million?

so much?!

Chen Qiuyi didn't want to cry all of a sudden.

At this moment, Chen Qiuyi finally knew why her parents' attitude suddenly changed.

They don't know much about academics, and they don't have much ambition, but they understand that this money can allow their daughters to eat well and live well, and will not be as tired as a dog like them every day. They know that archeology is actually

There is a "money path".

This is actually enough for them.

Both of these pieces of news were announced by Mr. Zou at the press conference.

After announcing the second half of "The Book of Changes of King Qi", Mr. Zou talked about the discovery of the Haitai.

"We have made a preliminary assessment of the value of the Haitai. Its actual value may be as high as hundreds of billions. Of course, considering that most of the extremely valuable antiques and cultural relics are national treasures, we cannot actually sell them.

As well as the costs of archeology, maintenance, and relevant laws and regulations... After comprehensive calculation, we will reward Tan Liugen, the actual discoverer of the Haitai, two thousand three hundred and seventy-five..."

Mr. Zou even gasped for air, and the media reporters below even stretched their necks.

"Ten thousand yuan..."

"Wow!" With a sound, the scene exploded!

What Zou Lao wanted was this effect. He ignored the noise below and continued: "In our country's waters, there are about 3,000 valuable sunken ships from various eras. We hope that the general public can provide us with effective clues. Once verified,

, we will give rewards based on the value of the sunken ship. In the next few decades, archeology, especially underwater archeology, will usher in vigorous development opportunities. I am here to appeal to all students to apply for our exams.

In the field of archeology, our Archaeological Association will also launch a "Qi Wang Yi Shu" scholarship program to provide generous scholarships to archaeological students with family difficulties or outstanding academic performance. Let us defeat the ocean treasure thieves together, protect our treasures, and defend

Our culture!"

The whole audience burst into applause.

On the South China Sea Island, in an old fishing boat, Tan Liugen was shaken awake by a young man.

"Uncle, uncle, you are rich! You are rich! Do you know how much money the Archaeological Association has rewarded you?"
