Chapter 951 Opening of the Museum
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Su Jing was the one behind the scene who had recorded and uploaded the video on the internet. His purpose in filming the scene was to gather evidence of the Japanese team’s arrogance.
However, in the process of capturing this, he also recorded the incident of the octopus killing members of the Japanese team. Initially, Su Jing had no intention of making the video public as he did not want to reveal the existence of the Monster Beast octopus.
But, due to the Japanese team spreading false information and defaming the Chinese team, Su Jing felt compelled to take action and release the video.
Su Jing had the gold, silver, and jewelry he recovered from the ocean floor appraised in smaller quantities. After tallying everything up, he discovered that their total value was approximately 2 Billion Yuan.
This is a significant sum of money and if any national team, such as China, Japan, or the United States, were to have recovered it, it would have been a major news event.
For the time being, Su Jing intends to keep the treasures a secret and wait for the attention to die down before deciding what to do with them. He is considering selling them off in smaller quantities or conducting another underwater salvage operation.
He does not want to draw attention to himself as the person who retrieved the treasures from the sunken ships, as this might lead to speculation about his connection to the Monster Beast octopus and the methods he used to retrieve items from the ocean floor.
The following day, on Sunday, Su Jing’s “Wonderful Museum” opened its doors to the public. However, Su Jing himself did not attend the opening, opting instead to stay at the Garage Station to organize the items stored there.
He delegated the task of managing the museum to Shen Hong, who would also serve as its curator. Su Jing trusted Shen Hong to take care of the museum and handle any issues that may arise.
Su Jing has risen to the ranks of a highly acclaimed first-tier celebrity, renowned not only for his talent but also for his infamous moniker, the “Gift Presenting Mad Demon.”
Furthermore, his ownership of the one-of-a-kind statue of the Atlantis ruins has elevated his fame to a global scale, with admirers and enthusiasts from all over the world.
So the museum he has established has garnered immense attention, drawing crowds from far and wide, all eager to witness his extraordinary collection firsthand.
Many eager people arrived at the door half an hour before its scheduled opening time, with more and more joining the ever-growing queue.
Their excitement and anticipation were palpable, as they eagerly awaited what was to come. The buzz surrounding the event was so great that even online forums and discussion boards were abuzz with chatter about it.
“There are so many people here so early.” Zhou Xixian, who was at the rear of the queue, grumbled about the large number of people present so early in the morning.
“It’s no surprise, considering this is Mr. Su’s museum we’re talking about.” Ye Bo replied.
“I don’t think he can produce any treasures other than the statue of Atlantis. Su Jing didn’t even find the sunken ship that may be related to the ruins of Atlantis. With such a lackadaisical attitude, can he still get as many treasures as before? His Auction House has been auctioning off many treasures all this time, Isn’t he almost out of treasures to show off?” Zhou Xixian said, looking in a bad mood.
Zhou Xixian’s bad mood may have been exacerbated by recent events. Despite finally discovering a sunken ship, the search party was unable to retrieve any treasures from it. Moreover, during the search, the individual was attacked and ridiculed by the Japanese, which added insult to injury.
Although there was no tangible loss, the experience of working hard but being attacked for no reason left a bitter taste in his mouth, moreover so when they didn’t get anything. The more Zhou Xixian reflected on the incident, the more he felt unlucky and downtrodden.
“Hehe, please don’t blame Mr. Su; there may be an issue with him and even if he had acted at that moment, it wouldn’t have made a difference, and the outcome would have been the same,” Ye Bo said.
Zhou Xixian nodded silently, refraining from expressing his thoughts on the matter. He knew better than to complain about Su Jing, as there might be valid reasons why he chose not to go.
Despite this, the excitement and anticipation that he once had for the museum’s opening, curated by Su Jing, had significantly dwindled.
“Hey, Old Xie, good to see you here too,” greeted Old Wu with a laugh.
“How could I miss the opening of Mr. Su’s museum? With his expertise, the treasures he has curated must be nothing short of extraordinary. Although, with Mr. Su opening his own museum, the treasures inside may no longer be available for purchase. I fear that you, Old Wu, may be left disappointed,” Old Xie chuckled as he spoke.
“Even if we can’t buy anything, it’s still worth coming to see. And who knows, maybe Mr. Su will change his mind about selling them in the future,” Old Wu also replied with a smile on his face. The prospect of Su Jing selling her treasures in the future had him even more excited.
A short distance away, a group of foreigners, including Alan and Anna, were also in attendance.
“I can’t believe I get to see the Atlantis Goddess Statue again,” Alan said, clearly filled with excitement.
“If only I had known beforehand that we couldn’t buy anything, I would have stayed by its side that day and savored every moment,” Anna lamented.
“Well, you’ve both had the opportunity to see it up close, while we’ve only seen photos. Let’s just enjoy the experience and appreciate the art,” A middle-aged man standing nearby added with a warm smile on his face.
“I’ve heard that Mr. Su, also known as the Gift Presenting Mad Demon, has an extensive collection of treasures. In addition to the Atlantis statue, we may get to see many other Chinese treasures. Let’s savor the experience,” One of the young women spoke with enthusiasm.
“Well, I’m only interested in the Atlantis statue. I heard that it’s the only item from Su Jing’s personal collection. Although he may be proud, I doubt he could support an entire museum by himself. I wouldn’t be surprised if other items on display are just there to fill up the space,” A young man remarked with a hint of cynicism in his voice.
Many other foreigners had also flocked to the museum, primarily for the Atlantis Goddess Statue. Ever since its exposure, the statue had been the talk of the town, and even after some time had passed, its popularity showed no signs of waning.
