Chapter 14 Professor Hughes (Part 2)
"Teacher, there is one more thing I want to ask for your help." After talking about the teaching assistant, Art took out the gold coupon.
Professor Hughes is the kind of straightforward personality who doesn't like to waste time and energy on useless politeness.
Besides, this matter is not difficult for him.
"What's the matter?" Professor Hughes glanced at the gold coupon he handed over, but didn't pick it up.
"I went to eat in the outer city today, and I met three sailors who wanted to rob me..." Art told the ins and outs.
The point is that I didn't do anything, I just took things.
Sell April Joel without hesitation.
"I see." Professor Hughes took the gold coupon and threw it on the table.
In recent years, government officials have asked him to help a lot, both on official and private matters. Even if no friendship has been formed, there is still some face.
Besides, Yate has already returned the money, and the other party is just a small maritime business group. With government officials, it is very easy to get it done.
"Not bad!" Suddenly thought of something, looked at Yate, and praised again.
After 4 years, he has somewhat understood his family background, and his life has always been in a tight state, but it is already good to be able to maintain his sanity after picking up 100 gold shields.
What's even more rare is that he didn't ask himself for help from the beginning, but he wanted to use the identity of the teacher to negotiate with the other party first, and then came to himself when he failed.
I thought that this student was just a little smart, but I didn't expect to be so good.
"Thank you, teacher." Art felt relieved.
Finally solved a problem.
"What are your plans?" Professor Hughes grabbed a piece of fabric that he didn't know what to do, and handed it to him.
"Find a job first, and then think about other things." Art was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was asking him to wipe the chair and sit on it.
In any case, ensuring life is the top priority.
If he can't even guarantee his basic life, how can he cultivate?
Moreover, a stable job can also disguise his identity as a professional.
He has no deep hatred, nor does he have the ambition to become a king or challenge the world order. What he needs most now is an environment where he can practice with peace of mind.
Obviously he has an inheritance but doesn't concentrate on cultivation, instead jumping around like a grasshopper, how capable is he?
The reason why he didn't go home was because he had to contact the outside world after all, and what he needed was a hidden environment rather than a completely closed environment.
"Hmm—" Professor Hughes sat down in the main seat in deep thought.
Shi Yi, which is one size larger than the Grand Master's Chair, is filled to the brim by him.
A thought suddenly flashed in Yate's mind: "How did he become a professor in the first place?"
"Do you want to help me with my work?" After a while, Professor Hughes suddenly asked.
"Okay!" Arter paused for a moment, and immediately responded.
Professor Hughes was a little surprised.
No matter what the reason for Yate’s consideration, this kind of reaction of agreeing immediately without asking or saying anything gave him a sense of accomplishment of being trusted, but he still explained: “The employment scope of ancient prose research is very large. Narrow, and your current knowledge is miscellaneous but not perfect, it is even more difficult to find a suitable job, why not follow me and continue to learn while working."
"Thank you, teacher." Art stood up to thank him.
I roughly understood what he meant. It can be understood as his graduate student, and the kind with super good salary.
Some doubts, why is Professor Hughes so kind to himself?
In the memory of his predecessor, he was just a student favored by Professor Hughes, and he shouldn't have reached this level.
However, with such a good job, he would definitely not refuse.
Not to mention anything else, just being with Professor Hughes is enough to make people jealous!
If you were to rank the archaeological experts in Pudera City, Professor Hughes would be the undisputed number one! And some ancient objects and characters, in addition to the secular value, may also involve extraordinary knowledge.
That is to say, no matter the government, church or civil society, it is possible to ask Professor Hughes!
His status and influence can be imagined.
If he was just an ordinary professor, how could Mavis Hansen avoid Art because he replaced him as a teaching assistant?
This is why he just mentioned it casually at the beginning, but Mavis Hansen would not dare to treat Art like this if he was serious—at least he would find a suitable excuse, and maybe he would arrange another job for Art seal.
In the past, Art was just one of Professor Hughes' students, and this relationship was broken after graduation.
Now, taking this job is much closer than being a teaching assistant!
The point is not work, but the latter sentence "continue to study", which is almost the treatment of a direct disciple!
In the previous life in China, didn’t many industries pass on in this way. The disciples learn from the teacher, live and eat at the teacher’s house, work for the teacher until they leave the teacher.
"After I go back, I will look at the information about the Sinai civilization. Come and find me tomorrow... the morning after tomorrow." Professor Hughes said.
"Okay!" Yate responded and said goodbye: "Teacher, I'm going back."
"Go." Professor Hughes got up and sent him to the door.
After he left, he turned and went back to the room, just in time to see the gold coupon on the table.
After patting his head, he immediately picked up the gold coupon and prepared to go out.
If you don’t do it right away, you may forget it if you are not careful.
There are almost no good people in those sea merchant groups, it is better to solve them as soon as possible.
…
After Yate left the school, he suddenly stopped.
Sinai script happens to be the most proficient of his ancient prose research skills!
By coincidence or on purpose?
Also, I didn’t notice it before, but now he has become a professional, with a mental value of 30 points, and his perception is extremely keen. Recalling the overall layout of Professor Hughes’ house, not to mention the weirdness, the dining table feels like a Altar!
However, no malice is perceived.
This is enough.
Whether Professor Hughes has a secret or not, he has no desire to explore.
On the way home, I purchased a batch of daily necessities, such as rice, noodles, and various seasonings.
The food outside is really not to your liking, and the price of better restaurants is too expensive, so it’s better to cook it yourself.
In addition, he needs to focus on his practice and prepare all these, so as not to be distracted by trivial matters in life.
After everything is arranged properly, close the curtains and take out the inheritance of the Son of the Night.
Meditation is a gradual process. In the absence of epiphany, you only need to practice once a day, and there is no effect if there is too much.
Moreover, what he needs now is actual combat power.
Unable to work part-time, he cannot practice the fundamental method of Nightborne, but can only learn the skills in inheritance.
It can be understood as a kind of internal and external exercises, he can only practice external exercises.
In this way, the difficulty of the already difficult technique is doubled again.
However, because of this, his progress will be much faster.
