146: The Heritage of a Millennium Family (I)

Following this, Li Weiguo and Li Youqian played many more games, all of which ended in crushing defeats for Li Weiguo.

“Who taught you Go, you brat? Why is it so peculiar?”

Li Youqian wasn't wearing headphones, nor did he have any electronic devices to cheat.

But his Go playing was like facing AlphaGo; every move was calculated.

“Oh, nobody really, just the old men and women in the park.”

“To be honest, Old Man, your Go playing isn't even as good as those old men and women.”

“Old men and women in the park,” my ass! Although masters are found among the common folk, Li Weiguo's Go was personally taught by a Go Saint!

You're telling me old men and women can compare to a Go Saint??

Moreover, human thought processes absolutely couldn't be so precise!

“If you're bad, practice more.”

“If you're useless, don't babble nonsense.”

“Hmph, once we return home, your father will definitely battle you for three hundred more rounds!”

The Li Family ancestral land is a place that even satellites can't detect, so let's see how you'll play dirty tricks then.

“Old Man, I'll give you a piece of advice.”

“If you're bad, practice more. It's okay to be bad, but don't be overly addicted.”

The destructive power of this sentence was imaginable, and Li Weiguo was so enraged that he blew his beard and glared.

His usually unruffled demeanor had been broken through several times since encountering Li Youqian.

“Giggle, giggle, giggle~”

Xie Zixi giggled, amused by the father and son, and then her eyes couldn't help but redden.

Since Li Youqian “died,” she hadn't experienced this feeling of home for a long time.

Fortunately, heaven had eyes and allowed her to find her son.

“Where have you been all these years? Why can't I find any trace of you?”

At the dinner table, Li Youqian drank a few cups with Li Weiguo. When they had drunk enough, Li Weiguo put down his cup and asked in a deep voice.

Li Youqian didn't know how to answer this; he wouldn't let anyone know about the system's existence.

Moreover, the act of “borrowing a corpse to revive a soul” was too absurd.

“Never mind, never mind. If you don't want to say, then so be it.”

“As long as you don't do anything that harms the country, do whatever you want.”

Everyone has secrets in their hearts, and Li Weiguo didn't want to delve deeper.

When the time came, Li Youqian would naturally speak.

As for whatever the forces behind Li Youqian wanted to do, they would have to consider his Li Family.

A thousand-year-old aristocratic family is not as Simple as it appears on the surface; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to pass down for a thousand years.

Li Youqian hadn't thought about how to answer yet, so he could only agree.

“Mm.”

Early the next morning, Li Weiguo prepared to take Li Youqian back to Longxi, as there were many family matters waiting for him to handle.

It was already quite difficult for him to spare the time to personally pick up Li Youqian.

“I'll have someone pack these antiques and calligraphy.”

These were all treasures, and Li Youqian was a bit uneasy leaving them there.

“Just leave these things here; they're not worth much anyway.”

“If you like antiques and curios, there's a Hall of Treasures at home with countless rare treasures inside.”

“If you're truly worried, I'll send a dedicated person to watch over them.”

“Damn it! He's showing off!”

“Not worth much… things??”

Any one of these items could fetch hundreds of millions at auction!

“Your dad is right; these things only have impressive names, but they're indeed not worth much.”

“Son, you are the Young Clan Leader of the Li Family; you need to broaden your perspective.”

Xie Zixi echoed from the side.

Seemingly noticing Li Youqian's disbelief, Li Weiguo said with a smile:

“Aside from the nine cauldrons that have already been handed over, the things you've collected are actually quite ordinary.”

“It's useless to tell you these now; you'll understand when you get home.”

After speaking, without waiting for Li Youqian to say anything, Li Weiguo walked out first.

“Let's go, son. You won't have to live such a poor life anymore.”

Xie Zixi patted Li Youqian's shoulder, comforting him.

In her opinion, the life Li Youqian lived was indeed quite “impoverished.”

Even the food he ate consisted of very “ordinary” ingredients.

“System… is this all there is?”

He had wanted to show off and let them see that he was doing well.

But he made a big mess of it.

“...”

“I haven't been working hard enough…”

“Wait! I'm going to harvest foreign exchange and Wall Street now!”

The plane slowly landed at Longxi Airport. Looking at the large airport, comparable to Modu International Airport, you're telling me this is the Li Family's private airport?

And… why does this private airport have fighter jets and an air defense missile system?!!

Could it be that he woke up and became a wanted criminal?

“These are just small trinkets, used for guarding the house.”

“The big stuff is overseas; you'll slowly understand once you take over family affairs.”

Li Weiguo saw Li Youqian staring blankly at the military equipment, and he couldn't help but feel a little smug inside.

Normally, such equipment wouldn't openly appear outside; it would usually be in storage.

But since it was Li Youqian's first time back, he naturally had to give him a little shock.

And you know what, this feeling of showing off in front of his son was incredibly satisfying!

Li Youqian no longer knew how he got into the car; his entire being was in a daze.

What kind of terrifying family had he come to?

It was one thing for all the bodyguards to be armed, but they even had major weapons like fighter jets and missiles. This was practically a rebellion!

“Since ancient times, military strength has been an indispensable part.”

“A family that only possesses wealth and so-called power cannot develop for long.”

“Without military power in hand, they are like soft persimmons to be squeezed by anyone.”

Li Weiguo saw Li Youqian's worries. For ordinary people, these things were taboo.

After all, in China, a country with strict gun control, the appearance of these items in private hands would definitely cause social panic.

“Some things can be unused, but they must be possessed.”

“Without the power to deter the world in hand, stable development will always be synonymous with luxury.”

It took Li Youqian a good while to finally recover.

It wasn't that he was unpromising, but the impact these military devices had on him was simply too great.

“I will slowly try to accept it.”

Since he was here, he would make the best of it. The stronger the family, the greater the benefits to him.

No wonder Li Weiguo didn't let Lin Yuwei and the others take the same plane as him; so this was the purpose.

“From now on, unless there's an important matter, don't come to this airport. There's another airport in Longxi where only ordinary planes are kept.”

Only the true core members of the Li Family could come to this airport.

To the outside world, this place was a military restricted zone.
