Chapter 1220 - Contention for Partic.i.p.ation
Yao Yue Ran stroked her long hair as her snow-white neck flashed. With a smile on her beautiful face, she asked, "What, you don't welcome me?"
"Of course you're welcome. Look, didn't I come here just to pick you up?" Ji Feng smiled.
Yao Yueran immediately smiled coquettishly, "I didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
Ji Feng laughed, "What's so difficult about that?"
Yao Yue Ran laughed, "For example … When your wife found out that you had actually come to pick me up, did she not fly into a rage? "
She laughed to herself.
Ji Feng laughed, "Let's go. Let me bring you on a tour of Island # 1."
Yao Yue Ran laughed, "You can now be considered as the Island Master, right? This reminds me of those hermit masters in the wuxia novels, you can be considered to be carefree and happy now! "
Ji Feng smiled bitterly: "Is there anyone who can live freely under someone's cannon?" "Didn't you see that the Vietnamese and non-Americans are about to attack? Once the war breaks out, I will be at the forefront of the battlefield. Who knows, if others were to send a few missiles over, the entire island might be sunk!"
Yao Yue Ran was elated, "Then you are also the island master, at least for now."
Ji Feng laughed, "If you are not tired now, why don't we take a walk around the island and go eat some food later?"
Yao Yueran replied, "I've eaten on the plane I came here, so I might as well take a look first. I'm also very curious about how you, the Island Lord, are doing. I heard that this is only a semi-military island. It's only been a year. I don't know how much it has changed."
"Please!"
Ji Feng smiled as he pointed to a jeep beside them. "Get on the jeep, I'll show you around."
Yao Yue Ran smiled sweetly, "Thank you for your trouble!"
On Island # 1, there was no need to worry about being a.s.sa.s.sinated. Therefore, when Ji Feng came to pick up the plane, he did not let Bai Zhu accompany him. He personally drove Yao Yueran around Island # 1. In his heart, he was pondering if there was something wrong with Yao Yueran's sudden visit to Island # 1.
Yao Yueran originally thought that since Island # 1 was occupied by the Vietnamese before, in order to prevent the Chinese navy from landing, there must be military installations everywhere, and the size of the island shouldn't be that big. However, when she got on the car, Ji Feng brought her to look around along the island's highway, her expression slightly changed.
Unbelievable!
Yao Yue Ran only had this thought in her mind.
The situation on Island # 1 was completely beyond Yao Yueran's imagination. This island was actually covered in shade, and there was even a large patch of primal forest.
Other than that, there were all kinds of modern facilities in those open fields. If Yao Yueran didn't know that this was island number one, she would have thought that she was in a modern city on the mainland!
Naturally, there were many ways to go compared to the Chinese cities. At the very least, there was a huge disparity in size. There was no subway here, nor any train. Yao Yueran had only seen a few buses pa.s.s by along the way.
But if this island had been a semi-militarized island a year ago, no one would have believed it.
"Over there is..." Yao Yueran suddenly cried out in alarm, "Surround the sea and build a land?"
From afar, Yao Yueran could see several gigantic ocean platforms towering over the sea. They were simply as large as a few aircraft carriers fixed to the surface of the sea. There were even rumbling sounds coming from above, indicating that this enormous ocean platform was working.
At the edge of the coast, there was a large amount of construction machinery in operation.
A word immediately surfaced in Yao Yueran's mind — land was constructed around the sea.
Ji Feng nodded his head and said, "That's right, it is surrounding the sea and building the land. "Although Island # 1 is the largest island in the group of islands, it is still a little too small, so it will definitely take place during the sea siege."
Yao Yueran exclaimed, "The open s.p.a.ce over there was created by hand?"
Ji Feng nodded and replied, "Pretty much."
Before she came here, she had roughly understood the situation on Island # 1, including the size, location, and environment of the surrounding sea and sea. But now, it seems that just the land created by the sea around the island was almost as big as Island # 1, right?
By the time Yao Yueran arrived at the next location and saw the large area of factories, those highly mechanized and refined factories, as well as the bustling construction scene, she was already numbed with shock.
After a circle, Yao Yueran's heart was filled with shock even if she was just looking at them from the sidelines.
"This is simply..."
Yao Yueran lamented, "This is simply a high-tech new city!"
Ji Feng laughed, "The place is too small, so we can only do this. Don't you think j.a.pan is the same?"
Yao Yueran shook her head in astonishment.
Even though she had already been overestimating Ji Feng's abilities, it seemed like she had still underestimated him. If this trend continued, Island # 1 would probably develop even more than Taiwan!
Yue Ran, you're hungry, right? The food in the canteen in this factory is not bad, shall we go and have some? " Looking at the time, it was already near noon. Ji Feng couldn't help but smile as he invited Zhang Xuan in.
"Alright!"
Yao Yueran nodded.
Although there were quite a few people on Island Number 1, business was not as developed as it was now. It was not convenient to eat and talk in the restaurants outside, but the cafeteria was better.
The two of them only ate a little as usual. After lunch, Ji Feng invited Yao Yueran over to his house as a guest.
After eating dinner at home, Ji Feng sent Yao Yueran out to arrange a place for her to stay. On the way, Yao Yueran couldn't help but ask, "Ji Feng, why didn't you ask me why I was here?"
Ji Feng laughed, "If you don't wish to say it, it's useless even if I ask. You will naturally say it when you want to say it again. Furthermore, we are friends, even if you only came here to be a guest, I would still be very happy. "
These words made Yao Yueran especially happy. She smiled and said, "Actually, on one hand, I came to visit the island, and on the other, I wanted to rely on you. I just don't know if you'll accept me."
Ji Feng was taken aback. "Submit to me?"
Yao Yueran laughed, "Alright, let's not joke around. My family invited me over. I was on vacation at the coast of the Southern Province and received a call from my family. I wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the construction of Island # 1, so I came over to ask for your opinion."
Ji Feng asked, "Is this your father's intention?"
Seeing Yao Yuelan nod, Ji Feng doubtfully asked, "Isn't your family developing very well in the northeast?" Why do you need to come here and b.u.t.t in? "
Yao Yue Ran said, "Actually … My father wanted to be part of the Flying Group's anti-gravitational system. "
Ji Feng immediately understood. No wonder Yao Yue Ran specially made a trip here. So it turned out that the Yao family was interested in the anti-gravitational system.
In fact, with the introduction of the anti-gravitational system, the cooperation between Tengfei Group and several of the largest domestic car manufacturers caused domestic car sales to skyrocket, while Tengfei Group itself had already entered the auto industry.
According to the information that Ji Feng had gathered, a large number of Soaring Cars had been smuggled out of the country. However, when they arrived abroad, the sign of the Soaring Cars was no longer present, and it had been changed to something else, but everyone knew that it was a Soaring Cars.
This caused panic among auto makers in many countries, as it meant that Tengfei's cars were not far away from entering their countries' markets.
Now, who knew how many people wanted to cooperate with Tengfei Group. Although Tengfei Group kept the main factories in the mainland, the headquarter was on island one. Just the phone and email contact was obviously not enough to express their sincerity, so coming to island one was inevitable.
However, Island One was almost sealed off from the outside world. Other than those who lived and worked on Island One, if anyone wanted to enter Island One, they would have to undergo an ident.i.ty verification process. Ji Feng didn't need to worry about that.
Since Island # 1 had become the frontline of the war, the military had sealed off Island # 1 to prevent people from stealing any information. Besides normal transportation and construction, it would be very difficult for anyone to enter Island # 1.
Of course, the Tengfei Group's invitation was not among them.
Yao Yueran seized this opportunity to directly contact Ji Feng. This was much better than contacting the external department of the Soaring Sky Corporation or sending emails to Xiao Yuxuan and Han Zhong. As long as Ji Feng nodded, then this matter would be settled. Even if Ji Feng didn't nod, she would at least have one more chance to see Xiao Yu Xuan directly compared to the others.
"You can ask your father to contact the Tengfei Corporation on this matter. I don't usually ask..."
Before Ji Feng could finish his words, he saw Yao Yueran staring at him with a vicious gaze, "Young Master, are you just going to lie to me like that?!"
Ji Feng smiled and waved his hand, "No, no. It's mainly because Yu Xuan is in charge of the anti-gravitational system. I will interfere and disrupt her work. However, I can tell her that you should have your father come straight to Island # 1 to negotiate with her. "
Yao Yue Ran was instantly overjoyed. "Really? Young Master, you can't lie to me! "
Ji Feng nodded his head with a smile, "No, no!"
Ji Feng felt very comfortable with Yao Yueran's way of interacting with him. What he feared the most was others being so respectful towards him. That way, at most, he could cooperate and not be friends.
Yao Yueran obviously wasn't like that. Seeing that she was clearly relieved, Ji Feng couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. It seemed that Yao Yueran was treating this matter as a mission, so she probably wasn't willing to be involved in this matter.
Actually, Ji Feng admired Yao Yueran's personality. She was not only free to live the life she had wanted, but also not as hypocritical as those rich young masters. It was rare to see a girl like her.
Yao Yue Ran immediately told her father about the news. However, at this time, Ji Feng didn't care about these things because he received a piece of news.
"Ol 'Three, you told me to find a good medical examiner to go to Taiwan. Do you remember?" Ji Feng received a call from Ji Shaoyan.
"Yes, why?"
Ji Feng asked.
"Something happened to that medical examiner!"
