Chapter 813 545: Dream
Yang Han was taken aback, and glanced at Yang Xiudao with some surprise.
"President Yang, your 'B Station' hosted this event. Didn't you secure a spot from God Xia?"
As everyone knows, the primary organizer of this magic feast is the 'Little Broken Station,' which was strongly promoted by Yang Xiu.
Therefore, many people thought that Yang Xiu surely had secured a spot from Xia Liang, after all, such things were common.
Yang Xiu shook his head with a smile.
"No, God Xia said his space-time travel magic would randomly select five lucky audience members on site. I'm not qualified to make God Xia change his mind and specifically reserve me a spot, and now that the slots can be bought and sold, I also want to give it a try."
It could be said that when Yang Xiu offered ten thousand, Old Cao was already tempted.
One must know his company was only worth a few thousand Yuan, and now with a thousand in cash right in front of him, it would be false to say he wasn't tempted. After all, with these ten thousand, his company could completely expand, and he could leave a significant legacy for later generations.
Moreover, he wasn't worried that Yang Xiu wouldn't be able to come up with the money. For today's Yang Xiu, ten thousand is a mere trifle. The 'Little Broken Station' had leveraged this magic feast to have its market value soar above a hundred thousand on NASDAQ, becoming a true behemoth.
Ten thousand might be difficult for others, but for him, it was easy to spare.
"Haha, just ten thousand? I offer twenty thousand."
Yang Han smiled nonchalantly and turned to Old Cao.
"Although I don't have twenty thousand in cash, I can mortgage my properties to you, which is definitely enough."
On the stage, Xia Liang wasn't in a hurry; instead, he watched with a smile as these people scrambled for the slot.
After all, his choice was a fair draw, and whether the winner sold their spot in the end was none of his concern.
Moreover, if the person winning the spot was willing to sell and make a good amount of money, it might be the luck of their lifetime.
At this moment, in the audience, the girl who won the first time was indeed feeling some regret. After all, she was just an ordinary worker who hadn't sold her spot before, choosing to use it herself to fulfill her dreams.
Although she was greatly satisfied, thinking back, she felt somewhat regretful.
After all, with that money, she wouldn't have had to continue working. She could have started a company and achieved financial freedom with tens of thousands! Even spending leisurely or supporting relatives and friends wouldn't have exhausted the money in her lifetime.
But previously, she was somewhat sentimental and hadn't imagined the slot would be bid up to such a price.
Actually, if it weren't for her first experience showing everyone that space-time travel was real and allowed them to leave Qingyun and move elsewhere, no one would have offered such a high price for the spot.
But now it was different. Everyone had seen the wonder of space-time travel magic, and naturally were willing to spend a lot of money to experience it.
Especially for the rich, money was just a series of numbers to them.
But if they could use those numbers to achieve their dreams and go to a place they've wanted to visit for their entire lives, then it was all worth it. And in the audience, all hundred thousand plus viewers were attracted by this scramble, and they truly witnessed the extravagance of wealthy people!
Old Cao took a deep breath as he listened to Yang Han's twenty thousand offer, and his breathing became rapid.
But eventually, his gaze landed on Xia Liang on stage, or more precisely, on the scroll on that table.
"Is my dream worth twenty thousand?"
Old Cao began to struggle internally.
This thought lingered in Old Cao's mind for just a minute before he made a decision.
He bowed slightly to Yang Xiu and Yang Han, and the others, a faint smile on his face.
"I'm sorry, gentlemen. I'm getting old and have enjoyed everything I needed to in this life. I've fought for my children and for my career, but I've never done anything for myself. Today, I want to leave this opportunity for myself. I want to fulfill my wish. I hope you all can understand my sentiment."
With that, he directly walked towards the stage.
In the audience, numerous spectators fell silent upon hearing Old Cao's words, and many were touched, applauding him.
After all, he spoke the truth of many people's situations. Many work tirelessly their entire lives and live for others, never living a day for themselves.
Soon, Old Cao reached the stage and slightly bowed to Xia Liang, a smile on his face.
"Thank you, God Xia, for giving this old man a chance to fulfill his dream."
Xia Liang waved his hand.
"No need to thank me, it's your own luck, and you fought for it yourself."
Old Cao understood that Xia Liang meant him not giving up his dream for money. He nodded slightly and said nothing more, approaching the scroll and picking up the pen on the table, and was about to write when he suddenly remembered something.
"God Xia, may I ask, can this time travel ignore the boundaries of time?"
Xia Liang nodded.
"Yes."
Hearing this, Old Cao said no more but looked at the scroll. Now there were only four red dots twinkling against the backdrop of mountains and rivers. The words the girl had written before had disappeared along with the red dot after the travel ended.
Old Cao took a deep breath and began writing on the scroll.
I want to travel to the moment Emperor Qin Shi Huang ascended the throne, to witness Emperor Qin Shi Huang from accession to tomb!
Once he finished writing this sentence, Old Cao put down the pen and looked at Xia Liang.
"God Xia, does this constitute breaking the rules?"
Xia Liang shook his head.
"No, but I am curious, why did you choose this point in time?"
Old Cao hesitated for a moment and said,
"Actually, my surname is Ying, and I am a descendant of Old Qin people."
Xia Liang was taken aback, then smiled and nodded.
"I see, you may go now."
Old Cao nodded gratefully, then turned and walked off the stage.
Meanwhile, the words written on the scroll by Old Cao were immediately projected onto the big screen, for all the tens of thousands in the stadium to see.
Immediately, everyone gasped.
It was to travel to the moment of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's accession and witness his burial!
Emperor Qin Shi Huang was the first emperor of the Dragon Country, who unified the six states, achieved great unity, and created countless myths and legends. His tomb's construction was legendary.
No one expected that an old man close to his end harbored such a dream in his heart.
