After ending the call with his friend who had helped him secure tickets to the Museum of Wonders, Su Jing’s phone rang again. This time, it was his sister Su Ya on the line.
“Brother, where did you get so many treasures?” she asked inquisitively.
“I won’t tell you my commercial secrets,” Su Jing replied with a chuckle.
“Stingy! You can’t even tell your own sister? Anyway, forget it. It’s Sunday, and school is on holiday, so I was hoping you could help me get some tickets to the Museum of Wonders.”
“How many tickets do you need?” Su Jing asked.
“Let’s see… I need ten,” Su Ya replied.
“Ten tickets? Why do you need so many?” Su Jing asked, surprised.
“Well, you know me. I’m very popular, and I have a lot of best friends. They ask me for tickets, and I can’t say no. Besides, tickets to the Museum of Wonders are expensive, and most people can’t afford them. Plus, all the tickets for Houtian are already sold out, so even if they want to go, they can’t.”
Su Jing thought for a moment and then said, “That’s not a problem. I can help you out with that. You can tell your friends that they can come with you to the museum at any time, and they won’t need tickets.”
Su Ya was overjoyed. “Brother, you’re too kind! Thank you so much!” she exclaimed.
Su Jing smiled. “No problem, it’s my pleasure to help out my little sister.”
After a while, Wang Zhuo called him once again. “A’Jing, you’re becoming quite the show-off,” he remarked teasingly.
Su Jing chuckled. “What do you mean? How am I showing off?”
“Now the whole country, no, the whole world is talking about the Museum of Wonders and you. That’s pretty impressive, isn’t it?” Wang Zhuo continued.
“It’s not me being ostentatious. It’s just that the exhibits at the museum are so remarkable that they’re generating a lot of buzzes,” Su Jing explained.
“Exhibits like the ruins of Atlantis, the 5,800-year-old complete ancient corpse, and the three-meter-high jadeite cabbage grown in glass? That’s not just a lot of buzz. That’s a huge deal. Be careful, because even if you have powerful connections, being too flashy can bring trouble your way. Your Museum of Wonders is definitely going to attract the attention of many people,” Wang Zhuo warned.
“I understand. I’ll be careful,” Su Jing promised.
Wang Zhuo then asked, “By the way, can you get me two tickets to the Museum of Wonders?”
Su Jing replied, “Just go there, Third Brother. You won’t be charged for the tickets.”
Wang Zhuo laughed. “Thanks, A’Jing. You’re the best.”
Next, Su Jing also received many calls from relatives and friends, most of whom came to ask for tickets. Su Jing was very straightforward and gave almost everything. He is the owner of the museum after all.
Even if the tickets are sold out, it is still very easy to get dozens or hundreds of tickets. Even with sold-out tickets, the museum’s visitor numbers exceeded 10,000 daily, so a few extra guests were no issue.
Of course, many people couldn’t help but ask about the origins of the museum’s treasures and how Su Jing acquired them. Su Jing offered a simple excuse that they had all been found or picked up, which left people with nothing to say.
What they didn’t know was that Su Jing wasn’t lying; he truly had collected the treasures from a garbage dump.
Su Jing acquired Tang Sancai, calligraphy, and paintings from the Tang Dynasty from Journey to the West Universe, but many of them were broken and required repairs from the White Mouse and there were many which were intact.
He also obtained the Bloodstone Goat and Bloodstone Bonsai from the Law of the Devil Universe and created other bloodstones using magical powder from that universe. However, he had already depleted his supply of the powder.
In addition, he procured realistic statues from the Law of the Devil Universe, as well as Palace Painting and Pond Corner from the Desolate Era Universe, and Deep Sea Red Coral from the In Search of Supernatural Universe.
Every single treasure that Su Jing had placed in his Museum had been collected from different Universes.
Besides, the huge emerald cabbage that was obtained from The Immortal Gourd Universe was just repaired a few days ago by the Small White Mouse. Su Jing was also shocked when he saw it.
The 5,800-year-old corpse was naturally a zombie from The Immortal Gourd Universe. Originally, Su Jing was only planning to use the golden jade clothes, but later he had an idea and simply used the zombie.
After managing various relatives and friends, Shen Hong contacted Su Jing about a request from foreign individuals who wanted to rent the Atlantis Statue and Mythical Ancient Corpse. The ancient corpse was a relic from the era of Chinese mythology and was known as the myth ancient corpse.
“Renting?” Su Jing chuckled as he spoke.
“Yes, they wish to borrow them for their national museum exhibition. It’s quite an intriguing proposal. Shall we decline?” Shen Hong asked.
“Hmm, it’s highly unlikely to lend out the mythical ancient corpse, but the Atlantis statues are a bit more flexible. Our museum recently exhibited them, and our reputation hasn’t fully solidified yet, so we cannot lend them out at the moment. However, if someone offers a higher bid in the future, we could consider lending out a statue or two. For now, you can politely decline their offer and ask them not to linger,” Su Jing responded.
“Alright.” Shen Hong nodded and then asked, “Do you think we should enhance the museum’s security? We have so many valuable artefacts, and I’m concerned about potential theft, especially if foreign thieves target the mythical ancient corpses.”
“Hehe, don’t worry about that. I’ve already taken the necessary precautions,” Su Jing reassured.
While appearance-wise the museum relied on technology and security measures like any other, to Su Jing they were just surface-level decorations. In addition, he had several pets stationed to guard the museum, and any robbers who were caught would never return.
Shen Hong was particularly concerned about the mythical ancient corpse, but there was no need to worry. Su Jing had complete control over the zombie and it would remain obedient.
However, if anyone tried to remove it from the museum, it would put up a fight, and considering that it has considerable strength, it won’t make it easy. If someone managed to move it a certain distance, it would make for a great spectacle.
