Chapter 1453: I Inherited My Own Inheritance?


Lu Zhou thought changing the skin of the robot would be extremely troublesome, but it was easily resolved.


Sitting in front of him was a professional accountant hired by the Pan-Asian Cooperation Finance Ministry and a lawyer hired by the Freezing Human Rights Protection Foundation.


His niece that was a few generations younger than him, Mrs. Lu Xiaoqiao, was going to come, but because she was attending an important meeting in the southern part of the Pan-Asian Cooperation, she had to send a holographic video to congratulate him instead.


As for Lu Xiaoqiao’s grandfather, that was, the man who ruined the Lu family business, he did not show up. He only asked the lawyer to send a handwritten letter, in which he apologized out of shame.


Lu Zhou actually understood the complex emotions in the hearts of his descendants at this moment.


The awe and admiration in their hearts towards him was certainly true. Perhaps they often bragged about their ancestors, who Lu Zhou was, and what he did.


However, if Lu Zhou really appeared back from the grave…


They might not want to see him.


People were not pure and flawless, and history itself was a contradictory entanglement.


Only immature children would talk about logic every day and feel deeply impressed by his own logic that “cannot explain neither the present nor the past, nor even pa.s.s his math test”.


It was as if talking about IQ made someone’s IQ higher.


Sitting across from Lu Zhou, the accountant glanced at him cautiously. He handed the electronic doc.u.ment printed on the holographic interface to Lu Zhou.


“According to the newly revised inheritance law in 2100, as the first-order successor, the owners.h.i.+p of Star Sky Technology now belongs to you. Although the a.s.sets have shrunk a lot compared to a century ago, there is also a charity education fund for primary and secondary schools in it. If you wish, we can recover this part of the a.s.sets…”


“No need.” Lu Zhou said with a faint smile, “My descendants did not squander this wealth for pleasure. They did something meaningful to the people of this country, which has exceeded my expectations. Besides, they have done what I have always wanted to do but had no time to take care of, so let them continue this career.”


Lu Zhou didn’t care much about the matter of Star Sky Technology.


After all, he set up the company to facilitate his own intellectual property rights. 100 years had pa.s.sed; he was satisfied with owning the name alone.


At least it saved him trouble from coming up with a new name.


“Okay…”


Confused, the accountant looked at Lu Zhou and continued, “In addition, with regards to your property in Zhongshan International, due to its 70-year property rights expiration and disrepair, it has been planned as a historical-cultural relic by the Jin Ling City government. It has been developed into a cultural tourism scenic spot for science and education. According to the law, these a.s.sets cannot be returned to you, but Jin Ling City will compensate you according to the current market price.


“According to our calculations, the amount of this compensation is 430 million credits, which is enough for you to build three modern two-story villas of the same type in the nearby suburbs… Are you satisfied with this?”


Lu Zhou: “I’m indifferent.”


“The last one is Jin Ling University. They have kept your professors.h.i.+p for a hundred years. They hope to continue to hire you as a professor and help you integrate into the future society… Of course, if you prefer to have the Freezing Human Rights Protection Foundation to find you a place to work, that is fine. But we recommend Jin Ling University. After all, it is now the top university in the Pan-Asian Cooperation, so you can get in touch with cutting-edge knowledge faster.”


The lawyer from the foundation sitting next to him also nodded.


“This is our recommendation too.”


Lu Zhou smiled and said, “Then I’ll do what you said.”


“Then I’m done here.” This troublesome job went smoother than expected. The accountant was relieved and looked at the lawyer sitting next to him. “Then… on to the next business.”


The lawyer handed out his business card to Lu Zhou.


“I am a lawyer dispatched by the Freezing Human Rights Protection Foundation. This is my business card, and I am here to provide you with legal a.s.sistance. If you encounter any difficult-to-solve problems in your life, you can consult me for free.”


Chen Tianlu?


Lu Zhou took the business card and glanced at it. He nodded and remembered the name.


“Thank you.”


“You are welcome, this is my job.”


The lawyer then took out a silver-white suitcase from the sofa and gently placed it on the coffee table.


“In addition to these things, your parents rented a safe at the Bank of China when they were alive and left you some things… We have already contacted the China State Bank to provide you with the safe deposit box. I brought the things here.


“The pa.s.sword is your birthday.”


Lu Zhou was silent. His eyes glued to the suitcase. Attorney Chen exchanged glances with the accountant next to him. He then got up from the sofa.


“Then I wish you the best, that’s it for us.”



After explaining everything, the two didn’t bother to stay here any longer; they soon got up and left.


Before leaving, the accountant from the Pan-Asian Cooperation left an invitation letter on behalf of Chairman Li Guangya, who hoped that Lu Zhou could attend the welcome party that they organized for him at the Heart of Asia the day after tomorrow, to celebrate his return from Mars.


Regarding these insignificant matters, Lu Zhou didn’t care at all.


Back in the living room, he opened the suitcase and handed the holographic memory card inside to Xiao Ai, who was sitting quietly next to him. Xiao Ai then copied and transmitted the data to the holographic home theater.


The light blue light particles converged in the air.


A pleasant beach scenery appeared in the living room, together with the warm suns.h.i.+ne and the waves slowly moving on the horizon.


As Lu Zhou looked at the two old people standing on the beach, his eyes began to tear up.


Although he didn’t know how many years ago this holographic video was taken, the wrinkles on the faces of the two elderly people had increased a lot compared to the last time they met. The only thing that comforted him was the smiles on their faces.


“Hey, kiddo.


“If you’re watching this, it will be far in the future.


“After you left, your mother and I lived quite happily… Although we were sad for a while, like your sister said, life is about looking forward.


“As you can see, we are on a holiday on a small island in the south… Tomorrow, we will return to Jiangling to celebrate the New Year. To be honest, it is lonely without you. But I hope you don’t worry about us. The only unfortunate thing is that we can’t share this happiness with you.


“Although we are also thinking about whether to go to the future and see what kind of life the people of the future will live, after thinking about it, we have decided against it. People can only live a hundred years or so. Whether it is in the future or now, what does it matter?


“Your mother always said that I am crazy, maybe a little bit… But I always think that you are fine. You must be alive in some corner of the universe. Maybe you’ll come home one day.


“As for the recording of this holographic video, it is just something to make me feel at ease. Isn’t this popular among young people now? Using holographic videos to record our youth or something, seems like we’re not so old after all.”


Standing on the beach, the old man seemed to recall something in the past, and his expression started to show a trace of nostalgia.


But soon, he smiled heartily, hiding the nostalgia behind the camera.


“If only you have a chance to see this video!


“But even if you can’t see it, your mother and I will a.s.sume you’ve seen it anyway, haha!


“Also, I don’t understand the things that your sister asked me to keep, but we kept them. I don’t know how much these things will be worth in the future. If not, you can sell them as antiques…”


The holographic video ended.


Lu Zhou took a deep breath, trying to bury his nose between his palms.


However, he suddenly felt that his right hand was gently held by a warm hand.


When Lu Zhou felt the incredible warmth on the back of his hand, he looked up at Xiao Ai, who was sitting next to him.


“Master, Xiao Ai deliberately installed a heating system… Although Xiao Ai doesn’t understand your emotions, Xiao Ai still hopes that Master’s mood can be better.”


“I’m fine.” Lu Zhou’s mood recovered a little, and a reluctant smile appeared on his face as he said softly, “I feel somewhat relieved to see them live such a happy life.”


Lu Zhou took out a box from the suitcase. He then opened it with a trembling finger.


However, the moment he saw what was lying in the box, he was stunned.


He originally thought that what they put inside would be some daily items such as diaries; he did not expect that what they put inside was a stack of papers.


The stack of doc.u.ments was familiar.


“East Asia Power, East Asia Communications, East Asia Heavy Industries…”


Lu Zhou read out the familiar names on the t.i.tles of the doc.u.ments. As he looked at the stack of doc.u.ments, he was stunned.


Zhongshan New Materials, Baosheng Group…


Everything makes sense now.


When he was talking to the accountant about Star Sky Technology earlier, he still felt that something was wrong.


The moment he saw the stack of files, he immediately realized the problem.


Yeah…


Star Sky Technology wouldn’t go bankrupt so easily.


Back then, Chen Yushan liquidated almost all of the a.s.sets of Star Sky Technology to buy billions of stocks in East Asia Energy, back before the cross-regional power grid had even been built.


And when China built the world’s first submarine quantum optical cable, Star Sky Technology, as the owner of related patents, also partic.i.p.ated in the formation of East Asia Communications.


Not to mention those high-tech companies in emerging industries such as charging stations, automated logistics, battery materials, etc. Star Sky Technology had invested in all of them…


At least some of the money survived, right?


It turned out that Xiao Tong had considered that the operating conditions of Star Sky Technology might be subjected to changes in the next 100 years, so she took a precautionary measure to separate this part of the a.s.sets from Star Sky Technology in advance.


This way, even if there was a major crisis such as the bankruptcy of Star Sky Technology, this part of the a.s.sets would not be auctioned or liquidated.


Lu Zhou looked at the things his parents left him with. Overwhelmed, he didn’t know what to think.


Ten billion?


A hundred billion?


Or a trillion?


Perhaps the power of these stocks couldn’t even be measured by such things as credit points.


Holding the box in his hand, Lu Zhou suddenly felt a little warm.


He never thought that as a scholar, instead of relying on the wisdom in his head, he would receive a huge pot of gold from waking up in the 22nd century and saving a flight of pa.s.sengers.


He never thought that one day he would become the world’s richest man by inheriting his own inheritance.


This statement was no exaggeration.


Without including the compensation given to him by the Pan-Asian Cooperation, he was already the richest person in the world just by relying on the equity certificates in his hand that were kept and certified by the Bank of China.
