"You can draw the appearance of those sea fishes in the fish tide?" The tanned and skinny native woman's words made Zhang Lisheng overjoyed. "Believer, you've won a feather for yourself." After promising a generous reward, he ordered Tugra to bring the woman away to continue drawing.
Not long after, the Tudenan headman presented the gray fish drawn on the bark paper with ground gray stone powder to the tribal Raider's hand.
The drawing could not be said to be lifelike, but it was very vivid. Zhang Lisheng felt that there should not be too much distortion in its appearance. After taking a look at it, he returned the drawing to Tugra. "Carve a slate according to this drawing and paste it on the mast of each fishing boat after sunset tomorrow."
"Yes, Raider!" The Tudenan headman carefully held the bark paper in both of his hands and left in a hurry again.
Zhang Lisheng was left alone in the treehouse again. Without warning, he recalled the deal he would make with the Lord a month later. Turning around, he took down the Tudenan's tribal book of history from the altar and held it in his hand before flipping to the last page.
Staring at his own image in the book, the idea of the tribal totem pole, the tribal book of history, and himself forming a trinity flashed across the young man's mind.
In an instant, his mind went into a trance. A wonderful kaleidoscope-like light appeared in front of his eyes. At the same time, the tribal book of history in his hand and the totem pole outside the treehouse resonated with each other and burst out a milky white flame.
After the flames appeared, they burned fiercely around his body and harmlessly condensed into bean-sized shiny round stones. After a long time, they naturally and slowly extinguished.
"Sure enough, I've become immune after being burned for the first time!" After everything was over, Zhang Lisheng patted his chest in pleasant surprise and breathed a long sigh of relief. Muttering to himself, he jumped down from the animal leather chair and picked up the faith stones that were full of edges on the ground briskly. "There's a total of 71 stones. 26 of them are for the Lord and the remaining 45 are for me.
With more than 600,000 believers, it'll be easier for such faith stones to be produced in the future. But what's the use of having more of them? I don't know how to use them anyway … "
As Zhang Lisheng was speaking, the feeling of having a mountain of treasures in front of him but not being able to enter it made his originally good mood become agitated. He placed the faith stone and the tribal book of history in his hand on the altar and walked out of the bark house. After transforming using the wyrmdragon's power, he condensed a thick fog and soared into the sky.
After circling around the island at an altitude of thousands of meters, the young man felt a little more broad-minded. Sitting on the cloud, he looked at the vast sea in the distance and pondered for a while. He felt that the situation in Tudenan had completely stabilized, so there was no need for him to worry about it before he finished digesting the fruit of victory.
The deal with the Lord would only be carried out a few weeks later, so he crossed the 'world' barrier and flew to New York.
It was indeed much more convenient now that he had the ability to ride on the cloud. Two to three hours later, Zhang Lisheng had already commanded the cloud to land on the roof of his office building on the outskirts of New York. He spent six seconds to change the power of his incarnation to the lizard's power and before the thick fog dispersed, he nihilated his body and entered the office.
After taking a hot bath as usual, he put on a set of clean clothes from the inside out. Feeling refreshed, the young man took out a can of iced Coke from the refrigerator and opened it. Walking to the large office chair, he sat down and took out a spare phone from the drawer of the desk to call Charlie, who was managing the LS Group on his behalf.
"Hi, Boss! Good afternoon! You haven't called me for a long time. Have you come up with any great inventions recently?" The call was quickly connected and a very happy voice resonated from the phone.
"Good afternoon, Charlie. I haven't come up with any great inventions, but I've made great progress in other aspects. How much spare money does the company have now?"
"The company's operating state can't be any better, but according to your previous instructions, most of the liquid funds have been invested. If you want to withdraw cash, we can have about 500 million dollars within three days. However, if the deadline is extended to two weeks …"
"No, no, Charlie! 500 million dollars is enough! Right now, you'll set up a subsidiary company in the form of exclusive capital contribution by the LS Group. The name of the subsidiary company will be … Erm, the Shrimp B1 Island Comprehensive Development Company! The basic capital of the registration will be 500 million dollars! Wait for my news, understand?"
"Yes, Boss!" Charlie was stunned for a while before his tone became much more excited. "The time is ripe! Are you going to show off your abilities now?"
"Some things are not easy to talk about on the phone. We'll talk about it when we have a chance to meet. I'm hanging up now." After Zhang Lisheng finished speaking, he hung up the phone and dialed Tina's number.
"Hey, no matter who you are, I have a headache right now. If there's nothing important, it's best for you to hang up the phone immediately." After the girl picked up the phone, her voice sounded tired and impatient, as though she had just been woken up from her sleep.
"It's me, Tina." Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment before replying with a smile.
"Oh baby, it's been two months and you're only calling me now?" When Tina heard that it was her boyfriend's voice, her tone became gentle. "I'm sorry, it was Beatrice's birthday last night. She's the Harvard Sisters Association's Liaison Minister. Trish, Sheila, and I partied for the whole night and only fell asleep in the morning."
"Go back to sleep then. I'm calling to tell you that I'll go to Boston to see you tomorrow."
"That's great! I thought you've forgotten about it already!" The girl cheered in a hoarse voice. "Dear, when will you arrive tomorrow?"
"I'm not sure. I'll contact you again when I arrive in Boston." Zhang Lisheng's eyes gleamed with a cold gleam as he watched the office's metal door being pushed open slowly as he replied in a low voice.
"Then I'll wait for you, baby! I really can't wait to see you! See you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow!" Zhang Lisheng hung up the phone with a slightly dry voice and took a deep breath. He lifted his head and looked at the beautiful girl who was wearing a simple and capable open-collared white shirt and straight black pencil pants walking to his desk. The coldness in his eyes had long disappeared without a trace. With a dry cough, he said, "Hi, Maddy, long time no see."
"Did you call Miss Tina just now?" The girl did not seem to hear Zhang Lisheng's greeting. After a moment of silence, she asked.
"This is my private matter …"
"Did you call Miss Tina just now?"
"Maddy …"
"Did you call Miss Tina just now?"
Upon hearing the girl repeating the same question for the third time, the young man sighed and replied, "Yes."
"She's going back to New York to see you tomorrow?"
"No, I'm going to Boston to see her."
"She's so happy," Maddy said with a smile after a moment of silence.
"You can also be happy as long as you find someone who loves you …" Zhang Lisheng opened his mouth and said in a low voice. Halfway through his words, he suddenly choked when he saw the girl's indescribably sad eyes. "What the hell? I'm a wizard, a devil! It's not like you've never seen how ruthless a murderer I am.
Not only that, but you also know that Tina and I are very much in love. I-WE … "
"It's the first time in these few months that I feel better seeing how excited you are. I feel that it's the right thing for me to go to your office every day whenever I have time before leaving." Upon seeing the young man losing control, Maddy's dim eyes suddenly lit up as a sincere smile crept upon the corner of her mouth.
"I-I'm excited because I hate how you look like you're seeing a ghost right now. You grew up in New York, so why can't you be as open-minded as an ordinary city girl?" Upon hearing the girl's words, Zhang Lisheng gradually calmed down and said with a wry smile.
"You're already worth tens of billions, so why can't you be like a normal young rich man and have a few girlfriends to choose slowly?" Maddy walked around the desk and sat on it gently. Standing on tiptoe, she placed her nude high heels between Zhang Lisheng's legs and leaned down to ask.
Zhang Lisheng became silent for a while and silently took out a car key from the desk drawer. Out of everyone's expectation, he leaped into the air with both his hands and feet at the same time and rolled over the girl's head. After he landed on the ground, he quickly walked towards the office's metal door without looking back.
"Can I understand that you're running away, God's Sorcerer from China who always thinks that he's great?" Maddy turned her head to watch the young man leave in a dumbfounded manner. When he was about to open the door, she suddenly reverted to the sharp tone she used when she first met Zhang Lisheng a few years ago and asked.
The young man froze and walked out of the office silently. When he went downstairs with a blank expression, the phone in his pocket suddenly made a chirping sound.
After a moment of hesitation, he took out his phone and looked at the screen. When he saw the profile of a pretty girl with short black hair flashing on it, Zhang Lisheng's heart jolted and he immediately picked it up. "Senior Sister, why are you free to call me?"
"Ah, it's nothing much. It's just that the invitation letter for Sichuan University's visiting scholar that you asked me to do has already been sent to Stanford. I'm just informing you." After a moment of silence, a clear female voice resonated from the other end of the phone.
At first, he thought that after his cruel means and the answers that went straight to his heart were exposed in front of Guo Caiying, his plan of returning to China with a tiger's skin might be changed. However, he did not expect that it would suddenly be done just like that.
Zhang Lisheng walked out of the office building and entered a Mercedes-Benz SUV parked in the parking lot in front of the building in ecstasy. However, he said, "Senior Sister, I didn't ask you to do the invitation letter, did I?"
"Aiya, it's just like that. Is it important who asked who to do it? In short, you're now a research-type visiting scholar invited by Sichuan University and registered with the Ministry of Education. You have to go whether you want to or not. You can't deny it."
"Deny it? Of course, it's impossible.
Since I've already promised, I'll definitely go, "Zhang Lisheng said with a smile." After about a month, I'll have a lot of free time. By then, it won't be a problem for me to go back to China.
Alright, Senior Sister, I'm just about to drive. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up the phone first. "
"Hang up, hang up! No matter how rich you are, you're still a nouveau riche! How rude of you to hang up a lady's phone in such a hurry!" Guo Caiying said angrily and took the initiative to hang up the phone first.
