Time flew, and before they knew it, the Manhattan Princess had been drifting in the Pacific Ocean for more than two months.
In addition to deliberately bypassing Oahu, the yacht passed by Maui, Kahurawe, Lanai, Molokai, Kauai, and Niihau at least twice.
Whenever they passed by an inhabited island, Zhang Lisheng would fill up the yacht with oil and bring Tina, Trish, and Sheila ashore to stay in the hotel for a few days.
Stay away from the threat of Altman and Julinas.
After the FBI took over the case of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel from the police, in order to cover up the cause of the case, after a hasty investigation, they threw the case into the file bag. They did not even make a phone call requesting assistance to record a statement. The lives of the four suddenly became extremely comfortable and happy.
After a long time, the three girls gradually forgot about their nervousness and enjoyed their last high school holiday. They enjoyed the blue sky, the blue sea, the bonfire party, the light dance steps of the hula dance, and all kinds of delicious food.
However, unlike the girls who were relaxed and comfortable, Zhang Lisheng had never forgotten the threat of the supernatural realm's spies. He would pay special attention to the current news on the Internet every day.
First, he witnessed the incident at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel with his own eyes, which was described by the US government as a terrible terrorist attack by terrorists. Every time a blurry photo of the wizard gu fighting with Altman and Julinas appeared on the Internet, there would inevitably be ten more magical pictures with varying degrees of modification.
Every time there was a correct description and speculation about the otherworld invaders, there would be a hundred ridiculous stories about the resurrection of prehistoric behemoths in the Pacific Ocean, and the appearance of apocalyptic signs in the Bible. The truth would be mixed in with the lies, and there was no need to erase it. It would naturally become invisible.
After that, he learned from the news that the US Army stationed in Oahu began to pursue the terrorists with all its might. There were many confrontations in the process, causing a total of more than 100 innocent civilians and tourists to be killed or injured, turning this beautiful island from a paradise on earth into a horrible hell.
Finally, one evening, Zhang Lisheng, who had cultivated the secret method for the entire day, was woken up by Tina for dinner. When he habitually browsed the latest news on his tablet that was connected to the satellite internet, he was shocked to find an important notice issued by the US Pacific Fleet Marine Corps Command on the homepage headline.
The terrorists who claimed that after nearly 80 days of arduous pursuit, the terrorists who had caused many terrorist attacks in Honolulu City had been killed on the spot in a planned roundup at 11 am.
After reading this news twice in a row, an inexplicable feeling rose in the young man's heart. With a sigh, he opened the door and walked out of the cabin.
"Lisheng, what's wrong?" Tina, who was waiting outside the door, asked when she saw that his mood was a little off.
"It's nothing, Tina. Sage Altman is dead. We can leave Hawaii safely now."
"Really? That's great!" Tina cheered happily. However, she suddenly realized that she would have to leave New York and the young man in front of her after ending these days that were gradually becoming boring and carefree. At once, her mood fell. "Lisheng, I'll go to Boston University after returning to New York. Will you miss me?"
"Isn't New York too far from Boston?"
"It'll take four hours by car and more than an hour by plane. It won't be that convenient for us to see each other anymore."
When the young man heard the girl's words, a disappointed expression crept upon his face. However, he did not say what the girl wanted to hear. Instead, after a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "Tina, drive the boat to Oahu. I'll make dinner tonight."
Tina was stunned for a moment. Her mood became even more downcast as she forced a smile. "I've already made dinner … Ah, forget it.
The food that I make is definitely not as delicious as what you make. You can just make it again. " Walking into the steering room, he drove the Manhattan Princess to ride the wind and waves according to the navigation device's guidance, heading to the Hanalei Pier in Honolulu City.
Four days later, the yacht arrived at its destination smoothly. After resting for another day in Hawaii, Zhang Lisheng and the three girls flew back to New York's JFK International Airport. At this time, his first summer vacation after coming to the US had also ended unknowingly.
After returning to New York, the days passed by calmly. There were no more accidents happening in the news, and the existence of the foreign world was still being effectively kept a secret by the government.
In the blink of an eye, it was the late autumn season where the cold wind rustled and caused the withered leaves on the roadside to dance in the air.
Tina had already gone to Boston for more than three months unknowingly. Even though they could contact each other through phone and Facebook at any time, and the girl had also returned to New York a few times, the two of them were already separated after all. Zhang Lisheng had gradually gotten used to his single life again.
"What are you thinking about? Don't tell me it's that girlfriend of yours who went to Boston to attend college again?
Hey buddy, you're only a sophomore in high school. The girls in college are not suitable for you. You should find someone who's about the same age … "In the afternoon, George walked out of the open campus of Lowbige Junior High along with the flow of people who had just left school. He placed the book on his head and patted the shoulder of Zhang Lisheng who was speechless as he stared at the fallen leaves beside him. As usual, he began to nag.
"I'm not thinking about anything, George! I'm not thinking about anything! Can you stop bothering me? I still have to go to the factory to sign the contract tonight so I just want to empty my mind now."
"Sign the contract again? What the hell? Why are you signing contracts all day now?
Buddy, remember, having 100,000 is a kind of happiness.
Having 1 million is a kind of luck.
Having 10 million makes one feel that they have nothing to ask for in their life.
However, having 100 million dollars makes you feel that your life is filled with burdens … "George said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry George, you won't have such burdens in your life.
I'll leave first, see you tomorrow! " Zhang Lisheng said as he got into his car. He ignored his best friend who was giving him two middle fingers and left.
Listening to the latest real-time news broadcast, the young man drove on the streets of New York. When he was about to turn into the intersection of the ring highway, he heard the car phone ringing all of a sudden.
Looking at the central control screen that lit up, Zhang Lisheng picked up the phone. "Lawyer Edward, I'm already on my way. I'll be at the factory in about half an hour."
"There's no need to rush, Mr. Lisheng. It's still very early now.
I've already prepared the contracts. After signing these six contracts, the third phase of your factory's project that has just been completed will also reach a state of saturation.
I wonder if you've ever thought of continuing to expand the factory?
By mastering the core technology to deal with ecological waste, you can completely monopolize the entire US or even the world's slaughterhouse market and build a business empire of 100 billion dollars. "
"I think I already have enough money so I don't plan to do that for the time being.
Lawyer Edward, why are you suddenly asking me this question? "
Edward smiled on the phone and did not answer Zhang Lisheng's question. Instead, he said on his own, "Mr. Zhang, I remember that I've heard you say before when we were chatting that your dream is to become a biologist and build the world's largest and most advanced biological science laboratory."
"That's right! I only need 100 to 200 million dollars to achieve this goal."
"Then have you thought about the salary needed to hire those world's top scientists? No matter how much of a genius you are, you can't possibly do everything by yourself. Also, what about the waste that may be caused by large-scale experimental projects?
Not only that, there's no upper limit to the size of the laboratory. The bigger the laboratory, the more research projects it can carry out at the same time. From this perspective, no matter how much money you earn, there's no such thing as' enough '. "
Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment. "What you said makes sense, Lawyer Edward. Looks like you've made sufficient preparations to convince me."
"I can't help it. In order to become the chief legal officer of a rising giant conglomerate, I have no choice but to do some homework," Edward said in a teasing tone.
"Then, after you've done your homework and convince me, help me negotiate with the construction company. Let's take over the entire New York metropolitan area market first."
Edward hesitated for a moment. "You mean …"
"I've decided to continue to expand the business and you're the chief legal officer of the LS Group," Zhang Lisheng said in a childish but straightforward manner. "Even though I don't know what a chief legal officer is, I'll sign a contract with you and let you participate in the profit distribution according to the usual practice of ordinary companies. However, you won't have any shares. Are you satisfied with this condition?"
"I'm very satisfied, Mr. Lisheng. Even though you're young, you're the most generous industrialist I've ever seen. Don't worry, I won't let you down."
"I believe you'll be a very competent chief legal officer. See you later."
"Goodbye, Mr. Zhang." In a speeding black Mercedes-Benz, Edward waited quietly for Zhang Lisheng to hang up the phone first. Smiling, he said to Charlie, who used to be Zhang Lisheng's business representative and had negotiated with dozens of National Farmers Union in New York, "It's done, Charlie. I'm now the chief legal officer of the LS Group."
"Oh, that's great!" Charlie, who was driving, clenched the steering wheel with both hands. "It's not that easy to be a commercial spy. Not only that, Hodec B Waste Management Company must've used god knows how many methods and got nothing in the end. That's why they spent such a high price to buy you through me …"
"No matter how high the price is, it's still a delusion. Even if Mr. Lisheng doesn't hire me as the group's chief legal officer, I'll never betray the interests of my clients …"
"Oh, come on, Edward! You're a lawyer so stop pretending to be so righteous.
However, now that you've obtained a gold mine that can be mined continuously, you won't do such a one-time deal anymore. "
"I'm a lawyer and you're also a businessman. Come on, Charlie! Stop pretending to be happy! The anger in your heart has already lit up your hair!" Upon hearing his friend's sarcasm, Edward mimicked Charlie's tone just now. "Don't worry, I'll suggest to Mr. Lisheng to let you be the chief commercial representative of the LS Group at the right time.
By then, you'll still be able to dig gold from this gold mine.
For this purpose, the first thing you have to do now is to leave a better impression on your future boss and work with me to ensure that his interests, which is also our interests, are not infringed upon. "
