In the evening, Tan Xiu, Mo Awu, and the others came to the military base on Mist Source Island. He learned that Divine Doctor Gui Jianchou was supervising the production of the antidote for the Darkening Virus, so he didn't disturb him. As Yang Chuxiong hurried over, the two entered a conference room.
"Mr. Tang, the No. 1 leader has agreed to your plan. The state is now collecting a lot of jades and will send them to Mist Source Island in the near future." Yang Chuxiong was very excited. Once the array was set up, the entire Mist Source Island would be like an impregnable fortress, and there would be no need to worry about outsiders sneaking in.
"How long will it take?" asked Tan Xiu.
"The leader said that the state has a batch of jades that can be sent immediately, but the quantity is only about five tons," said Yang Chuxiong. "If it's not enough, more jades will be sent later. But the leader doesn't know how much jades you need, so he asked me to ask you."
Five tons?
Tan Xiu's mouth twitched a few times, and his heart was filled with excitement. It must be noted that even if the entire Mist Source Island was covered with an array, it would probably require less than a ton of jades. But the state actually sent five tons in the first batch. Wouldn't he be able to keep the rest for himself?
It's a big profit!
Tan Xiu was excited inwardly, but he didn't show it on the surface. Instead, he deliberately furrowed his brows and slowly shook his head. "Five tons of jades are not enough. You must know that Mist Source Island is very large, and the amount of jades needed is also very large. It's at least 15 tons! "
Yang Chuxiong thought for a while and nodded. "15 tons of jades is not a lot. The jade mines in our country can produce a lot of jades every year, but most of them are in the hands of private bosses, so the state needs to spend some time to buy them. Let's wait! All the jades should be sent here in 10 days to half a month. "
"Alright."
Tan Xiu nodded with satisfaction.
Tan Xiu had dinner with Yang Chuxiong. When Divine Doctor Gui Jianchou learned that Tan Xiu had returned to the military base, he also rushed over and had a drink with Tan Xiu. When Miracle Doctor Gui Jianchou was about to leave the military base, Tan Xiu gave him two boxes of Gods Nectar, making him praise Tan Xiu for being sensible.
Yang Chuxiong also got some benefits. He also got two boxes of Gods Nectar. Of course, he didn't get it for free, either. Yang Chuxiong made up a lie and helped Tang Han get a military pass. Even if the Feng Shui formation was set up, Tang Han would have the right to come and go as she pleased.
Late at night.
Tan Xiu was sitting cross-legged in cultivation when someone knocked on his door. Mo Awu's voice came from outside, "Boss, someone from the mainland has come. It's the Lady Boss, Mu Wanying."
Lady Boss?
Tan Xiu smiled bitterly in his heart. He opened the door and asked, "Where is she?"
"Jin Shi has taken him to the barracks and is now on the way here," said Mo Awu. He should be here in a few minutes. "
Tan Xiu nodded and went back to his room to put on his coat. Just as he came to the entrance of the two-story building, he saw Mu Wanying and four middle-aged men and women following behind Jin Shi as they came down from two military jeeps.
"Tan Xiu."
Mu Wanying was very excited to see Tan Xiu. She had been so busy recently because Tan Xiu had introduced a lot of businesses to her. During this period, she only called Tan Xiu a few times.
Tan Xiu let out a faint smile and said, "You've been working hard all the way here. Have a good rest tonight. I'll take you to the Qingyuan Group tomorrow."
Mu Wanying gently nodded and came to Tan Xiu. She restrained the urge to hug him, but still held Tan Xiu's arm and affectionately said, "I miss you. I miss you very much."
Tan Xiu smiled and gently hugged her shoulder. After turning around and returning to the small building, he ordered Mo Awu to contact the management staff to arrange accommodation for the four people brought by Mu Wanying. Then, he took Mu Wanying to the second floor.
"Is this your first time here?"
After entering the room, Tan Xiu took off his coat and asked with a smile.
"It's my first time." Mu Wanying nodded. "I've heard my Dad mention it a few times before. I really didn't expect that the scenery on Mist Source Island would be so beautiful. If it weren't for the fact that I still have a lot of things to do outside, I would have thought of settling down here. "
"The environment here is really good. At least, the air here is many times better than Shanghai." Tan Xiu smiled. "If you like it here, you can buy a house here later. You can come here for a vacation and relax when you want to come here." "Alright.
You can accompany me. "
Mu Wanying said with a smile.
Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing and said, "I'll accompany you if I have time in the future."
Afterward, the two of them chatted about some recent events. Finally, Mu Wanying said with a bit of worry, "My Dad has learned about the Qingyuan Group's situation, and he's very angry. Especially when he learned that you solved the Qingyuan Group's problem. "
"What do you think about it then?" Tan Xiu smiled.
"I understand what you're thinking about." Mu Wanying smiled. "My Dad has indeed gone too far these years. Now that I've invested in the Qingyuan Group and own 25% of its shares, my Dad's income will be stuck with me in the future. Don't worry about it! If my Dad needs money in the future, he won't dare to show any objection to you. "
Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing and said, "If your Dad knows what you're thinking about, I'm afraid he'll be so angry that his nose will be crooked. It's said that a grown girl can't be kept at home, so he must think so. "
Mu Wanying was a bit shy, but she still said, "A married daughter is like water that has been poured out. Although I'll be filial to him, I can't let him do whatever he wants. My Mom has suffered a lot of grievances all these years, and I can't let you suffer the same. "
"It seems that I'm really happy to have a girlfriend like you," Tan Xiu said with a smile.
Mu Wanying used to be very reserved, and coupled with her indifferent personality, she looked more gentle and virtuous, like a fairy who didn't eat the common food of the world. But at this moment, an inexplicable impulse emerged inside her heart and she said, "Marry me early if you feel happy."
"Ugh …"
Tan Xiu was stumped by her words for a long time and couldn't speak. He let out a hollow laugh a few times and then said, "We're still too young, not even the legal age for marriage. Besides, we're still students. Let's wait until we graduate from college … "
"We'll get married after we graduate."
Mu Wanying said softly.
Tan Xiu sighed inwardly, but there was a bit of a smile on his face as he said, "No problem."
That night.
Mu Wanying stayed in Tan Xiu's room to rest, while Tan Xiu cultivated the whole night. The next day, he was still in high spirits as he rushed to the Qingyuan Group with Mu Wanying. After solving the stock issue, he sent Mu Wanying away and then returned to the military base.
He waited for two days.
Five tons of good quality jades were delivered. When Tan Xiu looked at these jades, his eyes shone. When he participated in the Stone Gambling Meet in Star City, he spent a lot of money to buy a little bit of jades. But now, he could get more than a hundred times more jades by just moving his lips and working a bit harder. This kind of comfortable feeling made his mood very good.
"What do you think of these jades, Mr. Tang?"
Yang Chuxiong, who accompanied Tan Xiu, looked at the jades in the container truck and asked.
"The quality is very good," Tan Xiu nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's no problem to arrange a Feng Shui array. However, I still need to urge Division Commander Yang to arrange the array as soon as possible so that I can go back earlier. "
"Don't worry!" Yang Chuxiong said. No one dared to neglect the order since it was issued by the No. 1 leader. I just got the news that all the jades needed can be transported to Mist Source Island in five days at most. So, when do you think we can arrange the array? "
"I need to personally survey the surrounding terrain of Mist Source Island in the next few days," said Tan Xiu. "Then I'll start immediately. I'll take these jades with me and bury them in a specific location. If all the jades can be delivered within five days, I can arrange the array in half a month at most. "
"No problem!"
Said Yang Chuxiong excitedly.
Time fleeted by and a week passed in the blink of an eye. Tan Xiu had obtained 15 tons of good quality jades. After on-site investigation, he finally determined that the amount of jades needed for the array was less than a ton. Therefore, the remaining 14 tons of jades were naturally pocketed by him and taken for himself.
Arranging the array around the entire Mist Source Island was definitely not a small project. But with the help of Mo Awu and the others, Tan Xiu's arrangement speed was very fast. He buried all the jades in the 36 important foundations around Mist Source Island.
"Boss, a leader from the Mist Source Island government just called and said that he wants to see you. The reporters from the Mist Source Island TV station also want to interview you. How should I reply to them? "Mo Awu came to Tan Xiu and asked in a low voice.
Tan Xiu looked at the white mist in the distance and said without hesitation, "Reject them all. Just say that I'm busy with important things and have no time to accept the interview, let alone see them. Tell them to find Yang Chuxiong if they have something they want to know. "
Mo Awu complied and left with the communicator.
Time passed quickly again. On the 13th day after all the jades were delivered, Tan Xiu finally arranged the entire array. The array he arranged was also known as the Interlocking Array. On one hand, it could be used for defense and on the other hand, it could also be used for offense.
On the southern coastline of Mist Source Island.
Thousands of military soldiers had sealed off the entire area within a radius of more than 10 kilometers. No one could leave Mist Source Island for the time being, nor could they come in from the outside.
Yang Chuxiong stood beside Tan Xiu and looked at the two 18-meter-high pillars, his mind shrouded in mist. He wanted to ask Tan Xiu several times about why he arranged these two pillars here, but after seeing the solemn expression on Tan Xiu's face, he understood that it was not convenient for Tan Xiu to be disturbed.
"It's almost time."
Tang Xiu immediately looked at Yang Chuxiong and said as the sun set in the west and was blocked by the white mist in the distance.
"What's almost time?" asked Yang Chuxiong, confused.
"It's almost time to witness a miracle," said Tan Xiu with a faint smile. "Division Commander Yang, tell your military soldiers to withdraw five kilometers."
