Chapter 144 Please take a long vacation

"What?" Liu Tao froze on the spot when he heard the answer.Although he knew that the old man was supposed to be quite energetic, it was unbelievable that he would have been a senior city official in Binjiang City.

In fact, this is indeed no wonder Liu Tao.When the old man was a high-ranking city official, he probably hadn't even been in kindergarten yet.After so many years, he naturally didn't know.If it were Liu Guangming and his wife, they wouldn't be so surprised.

"These are all past events. Liu Tao, you are now Lao Lin's apprentice, and you will meet many people in the future, and they are all very high-level people. At that time, I'm afraid you will think that I am an old man's official. Insignificant." Seeing Liu Tao's appearance, the old man couldn't help laughing.

In fact, what the old man said is true.If it was placed a long time ago, when the domestic environment was very poor, cultural relics appraisal and the like would not have much future.Since the reform and opening up, everyone's economic conditions have been greatly improved than before, and more and more people like to collect. Masters like Mr. Lin have become very popular in a blink of an eye.If a collection can get their affirmation, then this collection will be worth a hundred times immediately.

Among these collectors, there are many people in high positions.It is also of great benefit to them to be able to walk a lot with masters like Mr. Lin.In particular, Mr. Lin is also the chief expert of the Beijing Museum, and he is definitely the top expert in the country.The collections that Mr. Lin owns alone are enough to make many people jealous.

"Grandpa Cui, please don't say that. Mr. Lin and I just met once. It's hard to say what will happen in the future. Maybe Mr. Lin will regret it after being in touch with me for a while." Liu Tao smiled, Said.

"How could it be? I believe Mr. Lin has his reasons for choosing you. You must know that Mr. Lin has never accepted an apprentice in his life. You are the first and most likely the last. With this status alone, you can I don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and I’m honored as a guest.” The old man said after taking a sip of his wine.

Facing the old man's praise, Liu Tao became a little embarrassed.

"By the way, are you free this Sunday?" The old man asked as if he had remembered something.

"should have."

"My two sons will come to my house for dinner this Sunday. You should come too, just to introduce them to you. If you encounter trouble in Binjiang in the future, you can ask them to help you solve it." The old man said his own idea.

"Okay!" Liu Tao readily agreed.Although he didn't know what the old man's sons did, he knew intuitively that it was not easy.During this period of time, he encountered a lot of things and knew the importance of connections.He didn't expect that he could bully others if he knew someone, at least he could have a guarantee when he was bullied by others.

"Eat more of this." Seeing that he agreed, the old man put a piece of tenderloin into his bowl.

After dinner, Liu Tao said goodbye to the old gentleman and his wife, and took a taxi back to school.

All the afternoon classes are self-study classes.Liu Tao felt really bored, and he was considering whether to apply for a long vacation, so that he would not have to come to school all day to attend classes.

Just do it!

After two self-study classes in the afternoon, Liu Tao came directly to the principal's office.

When Principal Liu saw that it was Liu Tao, he stood up and asked him to sit down.

"Liu Tao, you came just in time. I was just about to look for you. When I went home for dinner at noon today, my old man said that you were accepted as an apprentice by Mr. Lin of the Beijing Museum. Is this true?" Principal Liu looked quite nervous.

"Well, it's true." Liu Tao didn't hide anything.He knew that Principal Liu's father was an old friend of the old man, so it was normal to know about it.

"It seems that you are going to be prosperous now." Principal Liu couldn't restrain the joy in his heart.

"Principal, please keep this matter a secret. Don't let other students in the class know. I don't want to..." Liu Tao paused when he said this.

"Don't worry. I won't tell anyone about this. What can you do to see me?" Principal Liu nodded and asked.

"I came to you to ask for a long vacation." Liu Tao explained his purpose.

"A long vacation? Are you ready to accept recommendation?" Principal Liu was a little puzzled.Originally, he knew that Liu Tao was eligible to be sent to the School of Life Sciences of Dongda University, but didn't Liu Tao give up?Did he change his mind again?
Liu Tao shook his head and said, "I don't want to be recommended, but I want to take the college entrance examination. I have confidence in myself. But staying in school now feels like a waste of time. I want to apply for home study."

"So that's the case." Principal Liu nodded thoughtfully, and said, "How long do you plan to ask for leave?"

"The college entrance examination. But I will come back to take the mock exam held by the island city. I bet Director Qi that if I fail to enter the top [-] in the city, I will obediently accept the recommendation from Dongda University." Liu Tao said.

Principal Liu already knew about the bet between Liu Tao and Qi Zhenqiang.Since Liu Tao already had such a plan, he was naturally embarrassed to force it.Judging from the current situation, even if Liu Tao doesn't take the college entrance examination, it doesn't matter.After all, Liu Tao is already Lin Lao's apprentice, so he can take a different path from most people.

"Okay. I approved it. I will tell your class teacher about it." Principal Liu finally agreed.

"Thank you principal." Liu Tao expressed his gratitude.

"You are still so polite to me. When you have achievements in the future, go back to your alma mater more often, so that I, the principal, will also be honored." Principal Liu joked.

"I will." Liu Tao readily agreed.

"Is there anything else? If there is nothing else, I will have a meeting later, so I won't chat with you. If you have time, you can visit my house another day. My old man is also very curious about you. "Principal Liu stood up as he spoke.

"Okay. You go ahead." Liu Tao also stood up.

The two said goodbye to each other.Then, Liu Tao returned to the classroom.

Thinking of not having to come to class again from now on, Liu Tao felt particularly refreshed.Originally, he didn't like to study very much, and now that he has Heaven's Eye, studying here is a waste of time.Instead of this, he might as well do something he wants to do.Even studying with Mr. Lin is better than staying in school.

Before I knew it, it was time to leave school.

Liu Tao picked up his schoolbag and prepared to leave.

"Boss, are you free tonight? My dad wants to treat you to dinner." Zhang Liang walked to his side and asked.

"Bring me to dinner?" Liu Tao froze for a moment.

"Yes! You have become a celebrity now, so he naturally wants to get closer to you." Zhang Liang didn't have the slightest taboo, and directly poured out his father's thoughts.

"Okay! Someone invites you to dinner, why don't you go! Where to eat?" Liu Tao asked with a smile.

"Wait a while. I'll call my dad first. He was worried that you wouldn't agree." Zhang Liang took out his mobile phone from his pocket while talking.

Seeing his joyful look, Liu Tao couldn't help shaking his head.

Soon, Zhang Liang ended the call with his father.

"My dad was very happy when he heard that you agreed to eat. He said that the place to eat will be in the "Food Court." Zhang Liang's expression also became a little exaggerated.

"Okay! Then let's go there now." After Liu Tao finished speaking, he walked outside.

Zhang Liang followed closely behind.
