Chapter 36: New Discovery of the System's Function
Editor: Atlas Studios
At 11:30 PM, in Lin Yi's bedroom.
"Sigh… Alright, that's all for today. I'll bring the rest to work and slowly pick them out for you tomorrow. However, brat, I might say that you can treat this as a hobby, but don't rely on it to earn money."
In that case, Father Lin was already guiding Lin Yi, but he did not know if his son would listen.
Looking at Lin Yi, he stared at the dozen or so fragments that had been picked out in front of him. There was no need to mention the joy in his heart.
At his special request, Father Lin had just chosen only the pieces of the Yuanqing Flower Vase among the porcelain fragments on the table.
After a few hours of hard work, he finally picked out these 13 fragments under Lin Yi's urging.
Of course, no matter how good Father Lin was at appraising things, he couldn't guarantee that these 13 fragments were all from the Yuanqing Flower Vase.
When he was choosing, Old Lin had even said that it was very likely that not a single piece was right here. In other words, the things he chose might not be the Yuanqing Flower Vase.
Of course, Lin Yi did not care about this. No matter what, Old Lin's standard was definitely higher than his.
Hearing that Old Lin wanted to bring the remaining porcelain pieces to the unit, Lin Yi did not stop him. This was for the best. After all, he only needed to choose the good ones.
"Hehe, it's been hard on my father! Oh, right, this is for you."
As he spoke, Lin Yi suddenly thought of something. He casually pulled open the drawer of the table and took out an item to hand to Father Lin.
Mr. Lin reached out to take it in confusion and was immediately stunned. Then, he looked at his son in shock.
"Heh heh, this car key is a gift for you. This time, you don't have to ride the electric scooter after work all day. You can also pick up my mother. How is it? Are you surprised?"
It was really too shocking. For a moment, Old Lin directly asked, "This… this is the key to your Land Rover? You bought it for me?"
This stunned Lin Yi, but he quickly reacted.
"Haha, I didn't expect you to know so quickly. Sun Zhi told you, right? Since he told you that I bought a car, did he tell you how I got this money?"
Father Lin sighed helplessly. He originally wanted to pretend not to know, but now, he was so shocked that he blurted it out.
Looking at his father's expression, it was obvious that the other party had already said it. This made Lin Yi smile.
"Sigh, I was originally worried about how to make you believe that I relied on Yuanqing Flower Vase to earn money. Now that I have Sun Zhi's proof, it saves me the trouble of talking. Hehe, Old Lin, do you believe in your son's ability to appraise antiques this time?"
"You don't plan to hide it from us?"
Seeing his son's relieved expression, Old Lin could not help but ask.
"Why would I hide it from you?? I was afraid that you would think that there was a problem with my money. I originally thought that if there was no other way, I would bring you to the antique city to prove it to Boss Zhuang after the college entrance examination. Now, it seems that I still have to thank Sun Zhi."
Father Lin glared at his son angrily. From the looks of it, he and Empress Dowager Ye had been wrong. It turned out that this brat was not hiding it from him, but was worried about how to make the two of them believe in the origins of his money…
Thinking of this, Father Lin heaved a long sigh of relief. No matter what, it was good that this kid did not plan to hide it.
However, in the end, Father Lin still placed the car key on the desk in front of Lin Yi.
"It's a good thing that you've made money, but you spent four million dollars to buy a car. This is an unwise move. Wouldn't it be good to keep this money and start a business in university?
Sigh, but since you've already bought it, I won't say anything else. However, I'll leave this car for you to drive. It's quite good for me to ride an electric bike. Moreover, with my identity and salary of more than $5,000 a month, if I drive a car worth more than four million, don't you think it's weird? They'll suspect me, right?"
…
Since he had already made it clear, Father Lin chatted with his son.
Not to mention what the father and son talked about, half an hour later, when Father Lin left, he had a relaxed and gratified smile on his face.
Of course, the car key was still left on Lin Yi's desk.
In the room, as he watched his father leave, the corners of Lin Yi's mouth kept rising. He could naturally understand his father's worry for him.
Retracting his thoughts, he looked at the time on his phone. It was already 12:11 AM. He already had a chance to decompose and reconstruct.
"Heh heh, I'll give you a Yuanqing Flower Vase tomorrow and let you know that your son's ability is unquestionable. When the time comes, I'll give you a car worth four million too. Let's see if you still want it!"
With this thought, Lin Yi directly looked at the small pile of porcelain chosen on the table.
He focused his attention and started to call the system.
"My dearest little system, come out quickly. Help me break down these porcelain fragments and make a complete piece of Yuanqing Flower Vase!"
As he called out, the 13 porcelain fragments in front of him did not disappear. Instead, the system's voice sounded in his mind.
[Received Master's request to create another Yuanqing Flower Vase. Sorry, the system is unable to decompose and reconstruct it.]
Lin Yi, who was originally happily thinking about his father's surprised expression tomorrow, was immediately stunned when he heard the system's voice.
"What? Did I hear wrongly? System, you said that it can't be broken down and reconstructed?? Damn, why?"
The system actually said that it could not be decomposed and reconstructed, immediately scaring Lin Yi. What was going on? Could it be that this system was a defective product? Could it have broken after only three uses??
Damn, you can't trick me like this! I still hope that I can earn the wealth of the world and marry a fair, rich, and beautiful woman while walking towards the peak of my life!
[After the system's test, the Master has provided the decomposition items: 1/17th fragment of the Blue Flower Bowl of the Year 1922, 1/46th fragment of the Blue Flower Plum Bottle of the Year 1937, 1/17th fragment of the Green Flower Bowl in the Qing Dynasty's 61st Year… The test shows that there is no element of the Yuanqing Flower Vase in the 13 fragments, so the system can't reconstruct it.]
"Phew! Damn, so that's what happened! I was so frightened. I thought something had happened to you."
It was not that the system was broken, but that his father's choice was too perfect. He had successfully missed every single Yuanqing Flower Vase fragment!
Of course, this was very normal. After all, the fragments of the Yuanqing Flower Vase were not that common.
Moreover, what made Lin Yi happy was that he seemed to have discovered a new function of the system!
