Upon hearing Trish's explanation, Zhang Lisheng nodded in surprise. "Oh, I see." Then, he continued to eat his tomato brisket pasta.
When the three girls saw him acting like this, they shrugged and smiled at each other before continuing to talk about the topic just now.
After spending two to three hours comfortably in the Goose Pond Restaurant, it was time to leave without them realizing it.
The young man drove the three girls to JFK International Airport. In the VIP lounge, he kissed Tina, who was reluctant to say goodbye, and watched the flight to Boston soar into the sky and disappear into the clear sky.
"I'm free now …" Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the VIP lounge, bathing in the filtered hot summer sun, Zhang Lisheng muttered to himself and dialed his chief legal officer's phone number. "Edward, I heard that the route to Shrimp World No. 2 has officially opened today."
"Yes, boss. If you're willing, I can arrange a seat for you on the 3.30 o 'clock flight. Not only that, Charlie, Maddy, and I can also accompany you there."
"What are you guys going there for? The supernatural realm is very dangerous."
"Boss, we've confirmed this voyage earlier than you. Everyone has curiosity. When I was young, my dream was to become a traveler who traveled all over the world.
Now that I can finally realize my dream, how can I possibly let go of this opportunity? "
"What about Charlie and Maddy? It's impossible for the three of you to have the same daydream … Ah, forget it.
It's indeed your freedom to do whatever you want. It feels good to have someone to accompany you on the ship. Tell me, where does the ship depart? "
"New York Harbor, it's right next to our factory."
"Oh, what a coincidence!" Zhang Lisheng, who had already walked to the airport parking lot, opened the door and entered the car. "I'll go to the factory now. See you later."
The young man hung up the phone and started the Explorer to drive out of the parking lot. He turned left and right on the streets of New York and turned into the road leading out of the city, all the way to Mutteslow.
At this time, this lakeside wasteland had become as noisy as a flea market. Hundreds and thousands of cars of all kinds were parked in the wilderness beside the road. Many of the cars had slogans such as' The supernatural realm is our hope … 'on the roof of the cars.
'If we plunder other people's land, then one day, everything will be taken away by others …'
"Christ Jesus, I know all this is Thy miracle, please lead Thy devout believers away from this ugly world …" The weirdo with the sign.
Most of them did not care about their appearance. They bought cold beer, hot dogs, and hamburgers from the hawkers to eat and drink, while enjoying themselves under the sunlight that was no longer as strong in the afternoon. They shouted some vague slogans.
When they were tired, some of them climbed down from the roofs of the cars and set up barbecue stalls next to the cars. They began to work together to stop the cars that had just left the slaughterhouse, buy the cleaned raw meat, and began to barbecue it excitedly.
After living in the US for two years, Zhang Lisheng was already very used to this kind of inexplicable demonstration crowd. After slowing down, he drove the Explorer onto the branch road that led directly to the slaughterhouse. When he passed by the factory gate, he stopped and told the security captain on duty, "Inform all the farmers who are slaughtering livestock in the factory to be careful of those guys who are demonstrating.
I just saw them stop a car to buy meat and barbecue on the road. They looked drunk. Don't get into an accident.
Also, don't let these people get too close to the factory. They need to vent after drinking so don't let our slaughterhouse become their target. "
"Don't worry, sir. All of our security guards are also armed during the day these few days." The security captain patted the gun belt on his shoulder and said confidently, "If those lunatics don't listen to the warning and break into our factory without permission, I'll shoot them in the head."
Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment. He looked at the cold square-faced and extremely sturdy security captain outside the car window and nodded approvingly. "Very good, I like your tough attitude." Then, he stepped on the accelerator and slowly drove the car into the factory.
When he came to his standalone two-story office building and parked the car, Zhang Lisheng walked into the reception room and found that Maddie was already waiting behind the desk. While opening the metal door leading to the second floor, he asked, "Maddie, I heard from Mr. Edward that you also plan to go to the Shrimp World No. 2 to have a look today?"
"Yes, boss."
"It's very dangerous there." After Zhang Lisheng opened the metal door, he walked up the stairs to the second floor and sat on the sofa in the middle of the huge office. "And to be honest, I've been there before. It's very desolate and there's nothing to see there."
"You've been there before?
Oh, forget it. You're so mysterious, so perhaps you've even been to Mars before. There's nothing strange about this. "Maddie opened the refrigerator and took out a can of iced Coke. She opened it and placed it in front of the young man." The Shrimp World No. 2 is the focus of the LS Group's next development. As the secretary of the chairman of the board, of course, I should go there to have a look as soon as possible. "
"The Shrimp World No. 2 is the focus of the LS Group's next development. Why would you have such a strange idea?"
"It's because you're an ambitious and restless man who has great power. That kind of barbaric supernatural realm is the most suitable stage for you to show your talent, isn't it?" Maddie stared at the young man and said solemnly.
"I do like to live in the forest more than the city, but I don't want to show my strength in a 'powder keg.'" Zhang Lisheng picked up the iced Coke and took a sip, just in time to see his general manager and chief legal officer walking into the office.
After the four of them gathered, they took the ordinary commuter car in the factory and drove to the new New York port next to it.
As the transit station for the new US cowboys to go to the land of hope in the new era, the inexplicable demonstrators and the crowd waiting to go to the supernatural realm gathered outside the huge new New York port. Naturally, there were more of them than near the slaughterhouse.
After giving his mother a call and telling her that he had to work overtime to deal with a few documents before going to the university, Zhang Li looked at the field that looked like countless big mushrooms had suddenly sprouted from the minibus window and suddenly said, "So many tents! Charlie, I remember that there are wolves in the wasteland on the outskirts of New York City, right?"
"Boss, even if there are wolves, they'll only be killed and eaten by these people," The short and fat old man was stunned for a moment before replying with a smile.
"You're right. That's really a pity …" The young man muttered.
"Oh Lisheng, your thoughts are really scary," Maddie, who was by the side, said in shock with her eyes wide open.
"You've misunderstood me, Maddie. I just think that instead of being tortured and eaten by the supernatural realm's aborigines, it's better for these people to be bitten to death by wolves." When the minibus turned into the parking lot of the new New York port, Zhang Lisheng said with a blank expression. Then, he stood up silently and walked down from the parked car.
The sea breeze was blowing gently outside the car. Standing on the flat port, looking at the giant ships, container stacks, cranes, large loading and unloading locomotives, and the blue coastline and sparkling sea in the distance, it would undoubtedly make one feel very comfortable if the bustling crowds around them were removed.
This time, the US government opened the Shrimp World No. 2 to all citizens of the United States and allowed them to sign up. Online applications were not accepted. Those who intended to go could only sign up at the registration offices of the Department of Internal Affairs in New York and the capitals of the 51 US states outside of New York.
If you already had some free time and planned to go to the supernatural realm within a month, you could only come to New York to sign up.
If you felt that it did not matter when you would go to the Shrimp World No. 2, you could sign up for the trip to the supernatural realm in any state capital. The time of your trip would be arranged according to the time of registration. You would be notified and confirmed by the Department of Internal Affairs by phone one month before your departure.
Of course, if you were impatient and rich and wanted to cut the queue, the government would also openly allow it. As long as you deposited 100,000 USD in your account and signed a contract promising that this money would be used for the development of the Shrimp World No. 2, it was entirely possible for you to obtain the permission to go to the supernatural realm for sightseeing in the shortest time possible.
This was the principle of fairness in the US. If you made a greater contribution, you could naturally enjoy a little 'privilege.' Everyone could understand and accept this.
Zhang Lisheng was the beneficiary of this' privilege. 'Even though he said that the supernatural realm's huge island was a' powder keg, 'he had already taken out 5 million USD of the supernatural realm's development fund in the name of the new LS Group and obtained the special right of passage through Edward's operation.
At this time, the young man covered his eyes with his hand and looked around. He could not help but mutter to himself, "There are so many people here …"
"That's right, Lisheng! There are so many people here!" Maddie, who followed Zhang Lisheng to get off the car, naturally held his arm and whispered, "Are you trying to scare us with those words you said just now?"
"Those words?"
"Those words about the cannibal aborigines in the Shrimp World No. 2."
"Maddie, didn't you watch the promotional video of the Shrimp World No. 2 on TV? Didn't the government always talk about how dangerous that place is?" The young man replied casually.
"But the TV only says that they're a primitive civilization, but they have a lot of strange abilities that we can't understand. They even raise monsters. They look small and funny, but they're actually very dangerous. The sand on the island they live on can cut through a person's skin. I don't remember anything else.
But how do you know that the aborigines in the Shrimp World No. 2 are cannibals? Don't tell me that you've seen them eating humans before? "Maddie asked nervously.
"No, I haven't." Zhang Lisheng shook his head and pointed to a road guarded by the police in the distance that was sealed with a shiny metal fence, leaving only a gap that could only accommodate three people passing through side by side. He asked Edward, who had just gotten off the car, "Edward, are we going there to board the ship?"
The chief legal officer of LS took out his phone and took a look at the route map. "Yes, boss. There are too many people here. It's better for us to go there first and wait inside."
"That's a good idea." The young man nodded in agreement and continued to say, "I'm sorry, please make way, thank you …" all the way to the metal fence.
