Inside the bamboo grove, there were several three-story European-style buildings. Just as Tan Xiu parked his car in the parking lot, Li Juren's female assistant came to greet him. She asked Tan Xiu about his identity and quickly led him to one of the small buildings.
"Little Brother Tang, we meet again."
Li Juren got up and greeted him with a smile.
Tan Xiu let out a faint smile and shook hands with Li Juren. Then, he said with a smile, "I've troubled you to come here, Old Li. Actually, the reason I came to Hong Kong this time is to discuss a business deal with you. "
Li Juren gestured for Tan Xiu to take a seat and curiously asked, "What business deal?"
"As far as I know, your company seems to have a shipping company," said Tan Xiu. "I want to rent some cargo ships from you. I'm not sure how long I'll rent them, but I'll pay you monthly."
"What do you want to rent ships for, Little Brother Tang?" asked Li Juren, confused.
"I bought an island in the Pacific Ocean and have some projects there," said Tan Xiu. "The project is very big, so I need cargo ships to transport the goods. As a matter of fact, I've booked several transport planes from abroad and also rented some cargo ships from Saipan, but the number is far from enough. "
"How many cargo ships do you need?" asked Li Juren.
"20!" said Tan Xiu.
Li Juren was secretly startled and exclaimed in admiration, "Little Brother Tang is really generous! How about this, I'll give you 20 cargo ships and you can decide how long it will take. As for the rent, I already owe the Delicious Restaurant a favor. It's really inexcusable if I have to charge money for renting ships. "
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "Business is business. Money can't be less. Name your price, else I'd rather rent someone else's cargo ships. "
Li Juren forced a smile and said, "Forget it. Since you insist on paying, then I'll accept it. As for the price … just name it. "
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment and then slowly said, "Then it's decided. I'll call my friend who contracted the project. He'll come to Hong Kong to handle the handover procedures. "
Li Juren nodded and curiously asked, "Little Brother Tang, buying a private island and building it must have cost a lot, right? I don't know if I should ask, but why did you buy an island? Don't tell me you want to live in seclusion? "
Tan Xiu smiled and said, "Being isolated from the world doesn't count. After all, the means of transportation nowadays are so developed. It's just a personal hobby. I just want to build a paradise! We don't even know what it will be like in the future! "
Li Juren said with a smile, "Spending a lot of money just for your personal preference, you're also willful enough! Come … have a taste of the good tea here. It tastes really good. "
"Alright!"
Tan Xiu talked with Li Juren in the Purple Bamboo Tea Grove for more than half an hour before he hurriedly left. Then, he dialed Hao Lei's number and asked her to check the price of renting a cargo ship. After receiving a reply, he transferred a sum of money to Li Juren's company account as a deposit for the boat rental.
At night.
Tan Xiu saw Yi Lianyan coming back with big and small bags in Shallow Water Bay Street No. 13. Looking at her panting appearance, he said with a smile, "It's quite a fruitful harvest!"
Yi Lianyan threw the things on the sofa and then wiped the sweat on her face. She then forced a smile and said, "I regretted going out for a stroll. This damned weather, it's so hot! " Do you see that white box? It's a gift for you. It's my thanks for freeloading food and drinks with you for most of the summer vacation. "
A gift?
Tan Xiu rarely received gifts from others, so he was very curious about what kind of gift Yi Lianyan would give him. However, when he opened the white box, his expression turned dumbfounded as he asked, "Are you sure this is a gift for me?"
Inside the white box.
It was a fist-sized purple auspicious doll that looked very cute.
"Of course it's a gift for you," said Yi Lianyan. "I've been in the boutique for a long time to pick such a good thing. Big Brother Tang, you have a very heavy murderous aura, and you usually don't talk much. If a stranger sees you, they will give way. So? I think tying an auspicious doll on your keychain will be very interesting. It will also make others feel that you're easy to approach. "
"You said that I have a very heavy murderous aura?" Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment and asked in astonishment.
Yi Lianyan recalled the first time she saw Tan Xiu. He was covered with blood and had a grim expression. She nodded and said, "I know that killing pirates is a good thing, but I've, after all, killed people. I'm afraid that you'll have a shadow in your heart! I told you that if you're not satisfied with this gift, I'll return it. "
"I'm satisfied, thank you," said Tan Xiu with a smile.
Yi Lianyan nodded in satisfaction.
The next day.
Tan Xiu watched Yi Lianyan enter the boarding gate. Seeing her reluctant expression, he waved his mobile. Half an hour later, he also took a plane. However, his destination was not Blue City, but Jingmen Island. It was only 10 AM when he arrived at the Everlasting Feast Hall in Jingmen Island.
"Grand Master, are you going to see Master now?"
Asked Gu Xiaoxue after seeing Tan Xiu.
"That's right," said Tan Xiu. "I'm going to see her now. Also, bring me the wild ginseng I bought in Hong Kong. I need to give her some medicine. "
"The wild ginseng is with Elder Ji. After she came back, she's either in the Elixir Room or accompanying Master in the exquisite pagoda," said Gu Xiaoxue. "She should be cultivating in the exquisite pagoda at this time."
Shortly after.
The two of them arrived at the exquisite pagoda. After seeing Ji Chimei, Tan Xiu took the wild ginseng and came to the bedside of Gu Yan 'er on the seventh floor.
"How long has it been since the last time Yan 'er woke up?"
"Five months and nine days."
"How long will it take for her to wake up according to her awakening pattern?" Tan Xiu asked again.
"It should take about a month or so," said Gu Xiaoxue. However, because Master has consumed the pill, she might be able to wake up earlier. "
Tan Xiu pondered for a moment and then said, "I'll return to Star City today. Shanghai University will start its semester in early September, so I'll report there. When I leave, I'll look for Ouyang Lulu to borrow her private jet. Once Yan'Er wakes up, you must contact me immediately. I will rush over as soon as possible. "
"Alright!"
Gu Xiaoxue nodded.
Tan Xiu asked Ji Chimei for a knife. He cut a piece of wild ginseng and put it in her mouth. Then, he stretched out his hand and pressed on Gu Yan'er's chest center acupuncture point. He gently rubbed it for half a minute before letting go.
"From now on, every seven days, cut a piece of ginseng and put it in Yan 'er's mouth. Then, massage her Tanzhong acupoint for half a minute to help her absorb the medicinal effects of the ginseng tablets. "
Gu Yan'er nodded and said, "I'll do it myself in the future."
Tan Xiu waved his hand and said, "Get out! I'll stay here to accompany Yan'er. "
Along with the departure of Gu Xiaoxue and Ji Chimei, Tan Xiu gently hugged Gu Yan'er and let her lean on his bosom. Then, he whispered, "Yan'er, Master can't accompany you all the time. There are a lot of things I need to do. Let's not talk about fulfilling my mother's wish to study at the University. I have to go all out to make money to buy a lot of cultivation resources for my cultivation. But don't worry, I'll go all out to cultivate. When my cultivation is high enough, I'll find a way to cure you. "
"Also, I found an island on Earth that's very similar to the Nine Dragons Spitting Pearl Secret Domain we used to live on. After I've finished remodeling that place, I'll personally bring the exquisite pagoda there. At that time, I'll find a way to settle you there. "
"Also, Master found the Supreme Emperor Purple Qi. Once I transfer you there, I'll find a way to transfer the Supreme Emperor Purple Qi into your body. With the Supreme Emperor Purple Qi improving your physique, I think it'll be much better for you. "
"Wake up quickly! Master really wants to see your smile! "
"..."
Tang Xiu chattered for a long time and only left the Linglong Treasure Pagoda when night fell. While he was having a meal in the restaurant, Ouyang Lulu came over.
"Tan Xiu, I heard you want to borrow my private jet?"
After Ouyang Lulu sat across Tan Xiu, she didn't have the slightest politeness as she grabbed the utensils on the opposite side and asked.
"That's right!" Tan Xiu said. "I need to borrow your private jet."
Ouyang Lulu rolled her eyes at Tan Xiu and snappily said, "No!"
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment before he immediately said with a smile, "We're friends!"
Ouyang Lulu snorted, "Don't threaten me with your friendship. You haven't fulfilled your promise until now. You've been nagging me for a long time. "
"My promise to you?" Tan Xiu was confused. "What promise?"
Ouyang Lulu heavily slammed her chopsticks on the table. Her arms propped the table as she stood up and angrily said, "You promised me that you'll go home with me to see my parents! But the result? It's been almost two months, hasn't it? You haven't even gone home with me until now! "
"..."
Tan Xiu was speechless.
He had encountered all kinds of things one after another, so he had forgotten his promise to Ouyang Lulu. After hesitating, he probed, "How about I go there tonight?"
Ouyang Lulu raised her chin and snorted, "Not tonight. My parents are not in Jingmen Island, so it's useless for you to go there. Forget it. Since you're willing to go with me to see my parents, I won't bicker with you. My private jet is parked at the airport. You can use it whenever you want. I'll send you the number of the pilot and the attendant later. You can contact them when you need it. "
"Thanks!"
Tan Xiu said with a faint smile.
Ouyang Lulu gave Tan Xiu a big supercilious look again. She picked up her chopsticks and said, "I'm really unlucky to know you. I'm always ordered around by you. But you're really good, going abroad to play without me! I don't care! Let's make it clear that you must take me with you when you go out to have fun later. "
"No problem!"
Tan Xiu replied with a smile.
After dinner, Tan Xiu got up and said, "I gotta go! I'll return to Star City tonight and pack up. I'll go to Shanghai University the day after tomorrow. "
"I've decided." Ouyang Lulu quickly said.
"What's your decision?" Tan Xiu asked with a confused expression.
"I won't tell you first. I'll tell you after I'm done!" Ouyang Lulu snorted.
