Sir Chen, your wife is missing!
Page 223
He finally completed his mission and handed over the most important thing to the young boss on behalf of the old boss.
Feng Qingyu had a relatively clear idea of how precious Originium was. If all these Originium were deposited into her Arknights account, there would be no pool that she could not draw from.
Limited? No problem at all. No matter who it is, they will just draw all the potential. There is nothing to say.
"Of course it feels good... I'm still in shock. I've lived in poverty for more than 50 years, and the days of having to eat instant noodles to save money are finally over."
I used to eat instant noodles to save money, and when I first arrived in Terra, I often ate instant noodles to save money for renting a house and buying furniture. It is hard to imagine how pleasant it will be to not have to eat instant noodles in the future.
Feng Qingyu stood there in a daze for a long time until Surtel patted her on the shoulder.
"Hey, stop daydreaming. Also, we have to go back to downtown Toronto today. Dr. Kal'tsit should be back soon, so we need to report today's actions to her."
There is no signal coverage on the island and the surrounding areas. Although everyone is fine, for Kal'tsit who cannot contact the operators, it means she has lost contact, which easily leads to unnecessary worry.
The issue of the summoned creatures had been resolved, and she no longer had to worry about being caught by Victorian military police when walking down the street. Here, Feng Qingyu once again silently thanked Shi Huaiya for quietly solving her problem.
The next twenty minutes were spent wandering around in the cave. According to Mr. Vic, these Originiums were the highest quality Originium veins, and their value and quality could not be compared to ordinary rough ores or slightly inferior Originium ores.
The crystal clear source stones are all over the cave, and you can find them at your feet, on the cave ceiling and on the rock walls. There is no trace of mining here, and every ore is intact. Unfortunately, there is no professional mining equipment at hand, so you can't touch it casually, otherwise there is a risk of aggravating the mineral disease.
Feng Qingyu held the searchlight in one hand and turned on the camera function of his mobile phone with the other hand, recording what he saw in the Originium mine, preparing to show it to Kal'tsit later.
She won't feel at ease if she doesn't make the best resettlement arrangements for such a large mining island.
The group returned along the same route and arrived at the entrance of the mine. They just happened to see the sun setting. It was almost evening and it would be completely dark in another hour.
"That's all for today. I'm going to go find my boss to interpret the contents of the will and tell her what I saw today. We have several excellent experts in mineralogy research in Rhodes Island who can probably give me some very pertinent advice."
Feng Qingyu's mind felt light and that sense of unreality always followed her.
Suddenly being told that she owned an entire island filled with Originium was something that would only happen in her fantasies or in the Ark short stories she wrote for her own amusement.
It was already seven o'clock in the evening when they returned to the coast of Toronto County. Before parting, Mr. Vic repeatedly asked Feng Qingyu to keep a low profile.
"Your father has been eyeing this wealth. Your mother had noticed it before she died, and she specially selected a few ordinary islands under the name of the Feng family to confuse his sight. Although there are source stone mines on those islands, the quality is incomparable to today's island. Once he comes to compete for the mining rights, your situation will be more difficult. Young man, the rest depends on your own efforts. I am over fifty years old and it is time for me to retire."
The haggard male's eyes finally had some color, as if he had accomplished something remarkable. His back, which had been a little bent, finally straightened up a little on this clear night.
Perhaps it was because the burden on his shoulders was finally lifted, and his body and mind were bathed in freedom.
"Thank you... In addition to thanking you, I plan to pay you some money so that you and your father can move to a bigger house, and hire a few servants so that you can live a comfortable life."
Mr. Vick smiled and declined her offer, preparing to go to the bar for a drink with his companions.
"No need. Our family is able to survive thanks to the kindness of the Feng family. I am just repaying my father's kindness. We are servants of the Feng family and will be loyal to the Feng family until death, but not the current Feng family. Miss, I have confidence in you."
"Thank you."
Feng Qingyu held the thick information bag in his hand, and suddenly felt that he was lucky. All the good luck from his previous life was accumulated and came to Terra with her. Isn't it good?
Now she is finally not a poor person anymore.
Fifty-one Return to Rhode Island
Feng Qingyu hasn't recovered from the incident on the mine and the island yet, and new things are coming one after another, but this time they are good things.
Kal'tsit and Lin Guang met them at a restaurant on the main street. When they arrived, the table was already full of food.
"You only have one hour. Eat quickly. We have to go back to Rhodes Island tonight. We have already wasted too much time in Victoria. Lungmen needs support. Every Rhodes Island operator cannot stand aside."
These words seemed to be secretly criticizing Feng Qingyu, because the series of events that happened in Victoria centered around her, and she had indeed caused trouble for many people.
I haven't worked in the half month since I came here. I've been either slacking off or running around for my mother's inheritance. I almost forgot that I'm still a Rhodes Island Operator.
"I'm sorry... Um, Dr. Kal'tsit, I will make up for the work progress that I missed during my leave, don't worry. If I submit some materials to Rhodes Island, can it reduce the workload?"
Feng Qingyu began to bargain with Kal'tsit.
After all, Rhodes Island's high salary is linked to high intensity and difficulty. It would be better to do less work. She is not short of money now.
"what material?"
"You take a look at this first."
She showed Kal'tsit the feature film about the Originium Mine shot today.
"All the Originium here belongs to me now. I haven't figured out what to do with it yet. Should I sell it?"
Cashing in Originium is indeed a good way. Kal'tsit's expression did not change after watching the video.
"Your idea is good, but it's also the dumbest. The price of weapons and ammunition processed from Originium is many times higher than the original raw materials. You can calculate it yourself. If this mining island is handed over to you to manage, it is very likely that you will lose it all in a few years. In my opinion, you are not as good at business as your mother and grandfather. Instead, you are more like your father."
Kal'tsit's words are as sharp as ever, or in the words of players, she has a foul mouth.
"You can insult me, but don't confuse me with that man. How am I like him? Although I'm not very smart, at least I'm an honest and good person."
Feng Qingyu thought Kal'tsit's statement was biased. Kal'tsit did not argue and placed a Victoria Morning Post in an empty space next to the dining table.
"You can read the headlines and I believe it's good news for you."
The front-page headline of the news tells the story of a well-known Victorian entrepreneur who is suspected of being involved in multiple cases and murdering his partner. The police have begun an investigation and the entrepreneur has been restricted in his activities and can only stay at home.
The entrepreneur's name coincides with the person Feng Qingyu hates, and even their appearances are the same.
"Ha... Feng Tiancheng is in trouble. If he does a lot of bad things, he will be exposed one day. It's a great relief. Such a person should have repented in prison a long time ago. It's too late for me to find out now."
Although he is under investigation by the Victoria police and no conviction has been found yet, Feng Qingyu can have some peace and quiet during this period of time, without having to worry about being visited by bodyguards every day.
"Good news indeed."
Feng Qingyu was so happy that his heart blossomed.
"Hei Yu, there are still forty minutes left. Why don't you start eating? Xi and Surtel have already eaten half of their meal, so there may not be any for you later. If you don't mind going on a mission on an empty stomach, then please feel free to do so. Put aside other things for now, you have more important things to do."
Only after Kal'tsit reminded him did Feng Qingyu remember to eat first.
Victoria needed several hours to fly to Rhode Island, and she would probably go on a mission right after getting off the aircraft. The pleasant 996 life embraced her again, and her favorite daily routine returned.
"Sorry, I'll eat it now."
She lowered her head and ate the noodles on the glass plate in front of her, trying to fill her stomach in the shortest time possible.
The good meal time was always so short. Feng Qingyu didn't even taste the food before Kal'tsit urged the operators to leave without showing any mercy. When they boarded the aircraft, Feng Qingyu was still chewing.
The aircraft sent out this time was from Rhodes Island, and there was a large Rhodes Island logo on the exterior paint. The operators who came to meet him were all familiar to Feng Qingyu, such as Huang and Javier.
Javier was particularly excited when he saw Feng Qingyu, and wanted to ask her to borrow some money to send back to Sargon to help his friends in the tribe build their hometown.
It would be more appropriate to say that it is used for post-war cleanup rather than for building the hometown.
"My friend Zumama collapsed the roof of her house while playing with the robot, and also damaged several other people's houses. She spent all her money on the robot and has no money to pay compensation for the time being. Those petty guys are making trouble for her every day. Temimi doesn't have much money either, so she secretly wrote to me to ask me to help her."
Hearing that Feng Qingyu's real identity was the eldest daughter of a certain family, Javier planned to shamelessly borrow some money first and pay it back later.
The other operators have an inexplicable fear of Gavial, perhaps because her expression is too wild, and her speech and behavior are very gangster-like, so they will most likely run into a wall if they ask her to lend them money.
"How much money do you want to borrow?" Feng Qingyu asked.
Gavial stretched out his right hand and raised five fingers.
"Five thousand?"
"Five thousand is not enough."
"fifty thousand?"
"It's still not enough."
"Hey, you don't want 50 million, right? All the money in my account is not even 50 million, only about 10 million.
"Five hundred thousand. I will pay you back. I promise. I will pay you back even if I don't eat or drink."
If it was only 500,000, Feng Qingyu would not care. Jia Weier was a simple man and would definitely do what he said. If she wanted to lend some money for the sexy anaconda, she thought it was possible.
"I'll lend it to you when we get back, but I want a full-body photo of your friend Zumama. Remember, the less cloth on your body, the better. In our Great Yan, there is a tradition that the less cloth, the stronger the combat power. Too much cloth will only affect the speed of drawing the sword."
"No problem, you can have ten if you want."
The two reached some kind of ulterior py deal.
After chatting with other operators for a while, Feng Qingyu felt a little sleepy and took a nap in his seat. Rhodes Island's aircraft was still inferior to Shi Huaiya's, and the width and comfort of the seats could explain the problem.
Maybe I should donate some money to help Rhode Island improve its facilities, she thought.
The voices of the operators gradually faded away. Everyone agreed that they should take every minute to rest before the mission. Except for Kal'tsit who was reading some complicated information, everyone else was resting with their eyes closed.
In a daze, Feng Qingyu said to her, "Dr. Kal'tsit, don't be too tired." Unable to bear the fight between his eyelids, he decided to go to sleep first. Kal'tsit seemed to say "Okay" and continued to work.
Then, Feng Qingyu began to dream. She dreamed that Shuangxing was lying in her arms, covered in blood, and her heart had stopped beating.
A very scary dream.
52. Hiding Merit and Fame
"hiss--"
Feng Qingyu was awakened by a terrible dream, sweat dripping down his face, with a large area of his back soaked with sweat.
The other operators were still fast asleep, except for Kal'tsit, who was still busy with some highly professional things that ordinary people could not understand, and was rapidly recording in her notebook with a pen.
As soon as she turned around, Kal'tsit disappeared. There was not even the sound of footsteps. It was silent. Only the untidy things on the simple desk proved that she was busy.
If you wake up and find that you are the only one on the aircraft and all your companions have disappeared, that would be truly terrifying.
"Dreams are always the opposite, dreams are always the opposite..."
Since Misha can survive, isn't it normal for Froststar to survive?
"It's okay, it's okay. I still have time and I still have a way."
She sat there and comforted herself, and she seemed to feel a little better. As the saying goes, if you think too much, you will dream about it at night.
It could also be that the food you’ve eaten recently is too irritating. Anything is possible.
After all this trouble, she had no desire to sleep now. She just wanted to do something to distract herself and calm down.
"Get up and find something to drink."
Rhodes Island's aircraft is equipped with a refrigerator, which contains a variety of common beverages on the market. When you are in a dilemma, you only need a cold drink, or light a cigarette.
However, the interior of the aircraft is a confined space and there are regulations that prohibit lighting cigarettes, otherwise it will trigger the smoke alarm system and cause the aircraft to make an emergency landing. If the system determines that the danger level is high, it will forcibly eject the operators from the aircraft and open their parachutes.
She knew the rules of Rhode Island and could only endure it for the time being.
In the aircraft's tea room, Feng Qingyu met Kal'tsit who was also looking for something to drink, but Kal'tsit was drinking a hot drink.
Victoria's black tea leaves were soaked in a mug, and the tea room was filled with the aroma of tea. Then, Kal'tsit added two slices of dried lemon to the cup for flavoring.
Seeing Feng Qingyu drinking Coke, her occupational disease started to flare up again.
"It's better to drink something mild late at night. I think black tea is suitable for you. It has a mild nature and can calm the nerves and refresh the mind."
Feng Qingyu was almost used to the concern from Kai's father. She was like an elder and a friend. Although she often spoke in riddles, she was very patient and gentle.
Who doesn’t love a dad like this?
"I understand the logic. It's just a habit. I opened the refrigerator and took out a cold drink. I'm in good health, so don't worry about me. Besides, I'm a cold drink person. I'm not very interested in hot drinks. I only want to drink them in very cold weather. But you, Dr. Kal'tsit, are still working so late. Don't you want to rest?"
Kal'tsit took a few sips of the hot tea and said, "Almost done. I only need to rest for an hour to recover my energy. Compared to you who are going to fight, I don't need to rest too much to ensure my energy. We still have an hour and a half to go to Longmen. Have a good rest and don't think too much."
Feng Qingyu's shoulder still felt the warmth of Kal'tsit. Kal'tsit had left the tea room and returned to her seat. She quickly cleaned up the things on the simple table and lay down to rest.
Her sleeping position was not very unique. She just lay there with her hands folded on her chest. You could hardly hear her breathing. To put it bluntly, it looked like a dead person lying in a coffin.
Feng Qingyu stood by and admired it for a while. Then, Kal'tsit suddenly opened her eyes and looked at her with a slightly disdainful expression.
"If you want to sleep together, this place is too small. After all, it's not the bed in my room in Rhodes Island. To be honest, you don't sleep very well. Last time, I felt someone hugged me in the middle of the night. Your face was rubbing against my chest, and your hands were wandering around my hips. I almost thought you were taking the opportunity to flirt with me, but then I found out that you were not pretending to sleep. I almost kicked you off."
Feng Qingyu had no recollection of what Kal'tsit said.
She knew that she slept badly. Chen often complained about her, but Xingxiong never mentioned it. Other women who had slept with her slept even worse.
Kal'tsit's sleeping position is very standard, like a programmed robot. Until the program is terminated, it will continue to operate according to the program and may not change its sleeping position all night.
This is not cute at all.
"I'm sorry, I have a bad sleeping posture. Chen Sir almost kicked me down in the middle of the night. She said that I pressed my whole body on her and she couldn't move. She thought she was sleep paralyzed and woke up immediately. She found out that it was my fault... and then she gave me a good scolding."
One can imagine what happened after that. Sir Chen couldn't sleep and she couldn't even think of sleeping soundly alone, so she was caught and made to play war chess games all night. When she got out of bed the next day, her legs were shaking.
"I hope you can improve in the future. Your behavior can easily be seen as frivolous. Not to mention Commander Chen, I have had the same impulse before. Your personal behavior will affect the sleep quality of the people around you, thereby reducing their work efficiency and causing a series of chain reactions."
Seeing that Kal'tsit was about to give a long speech and transform into a late-night riddler, Feng Qingyu immediately put on a mask of pain.
