91: Yue Siyi

Xiao Xing planned to build a city fortress there. The main reasons were its abundant water resources and steep terrain, making it an easy-to-defend and hard-to-attack location that would have no trouble blocking most monsters.

He told Chen Tianming his general goal, but as for what the city was being built for, he didn't say.

That area was just a stretch of mountain wasteland; only the area below the waterfall had been invested in as a tourist attraction. If Xiao Xing really invested 10 trillion, the attraction could be dismantled immediately.

But after Xiao Xing finished speaking, Chen Tianming held his forehead, his mind unable to wrap around it.

He truly couldn't understand why Xiao Xing would spend such a massive amount of capital to build a city fortress there.

Was there going to be a world war?

Or was a zombie apocalypse about to happen?

That was the only possibility; otherwise, even a fool wouldn't build such a thing.

“Brother Xiao, it's your brother who is dull. Can you seriously tell me what exactly is going to happen?”

Although Chen Tianming knew a bit about Spiritual Qi, was there really a need to build a doomsday fortress?

Spiritual Qi has been recovering for so many days, and he hadn't seen anything unusual.

“I'm just taking precautions. Who knows what will happen in the future? Besides, keeping that much money is useless, isn't it?

If nothing happens in the end, it will still be a world-famous piece of architecture.

There are five trillion in this card, and more funds will be added depending on the situation. I will design the detailed blueprints, and I'll trouble you to take full responsibility for it then.”

Xiao Xing handed a Dragon People's Bank card to Chen Tianming.

For this kind of thing, he would naturally only provide the money and the blueprints; he didn't have the time to handle the construction aspects.

A project exceeding 10 trillion could be said to be extremely rare. As long as he put it out there, the world's top construction companies would scramble to do it.

However, Xiao Xing also had requirements: it must be done according to his design, and there could be no cutting corners.

“Brother Xiao, are you serious?”

After recovering, Chen Tianming picked up the bank card and spoke in a low voice.

This matter was truly a bit shocking.

But if there really was that much money in the card, then after completing such a project, let alone South City, even the economy of the entire province would be raised to a new level.

It wasn't just a matter of 10 trillion, but the massive consumption of labor and Materials would drive a series of economic improvements across the entire province.

“Brother Ming, send me the 3D map of that mountain range. Once the blueprints are ready, I'll send them to you. I'll be going now.”

Xiao Xing stood up without saying anything more. He had already answered the other party indirectly; as long as Chen Tianming confirmed the funds were in the card, then it was real.

“Brother Xiao, let me see you out.”

Seeing Xiao Xing stand up, Chen Tianming seemed to snap back to his senses and hurriedly rose to walk Xiao Xing downstairs.

Just as the two stepped out of the elevator, Yue Siyi, who was still a bit dazed, suddenly cried out in surprise:

“How are you with the Mayor?!”

She had clearly intended to stop Xiao Xing earlier, but then she didn't know what happened.

But she had already seen through him; Xiao Xing was just here to fool her. Looking at his clothes, he didn't look like a rich person, let alone someone with a trillion-dollar project.

So, seeing Xiao Xing with the Mayor now, she couldn't help but exclaim.

“Xiao Yi, shut up! You've been getting more and more presumptuous lately. Brother Xiao is here to discuss a project with me. Speak more politely. If you do this again, you don't have to come back tomorrow.”

Seeing Yue Siyi shouting at Xiao Xing, Chen Tianming directly barked at her.

Usually, he would let her antics slide, but Xiao Xing was an incredible Super Rich Player. If she made him unhappy, it wouldn't be a problem that could be solved with just a few words.

“Mayor, I was wrong!”

After being scolded, Yue Siyi bit her lower lip tightly, showing a wronged expression.

This guy Xiao Xing had caused her to get scolded, so she felt he was very annoying. But now that the Mayor was angry, she didn't dare say anything else.

“Brother Ming, she might have been shocked by the numbers earlier and didn't hear the balance in the card clearly. You should let her take it and check it again. That way, we can all be at ease, can't we?”

Xiao Xing smiled at Chen Tianming. He knew the other party had been dying to know if there was really money inside, but since he was here, Chen Tianming couldn't check it on the spot.

Since Yue Siyi didn't believe it either, they might as well check it right there so all three parties could be at peace.

“Brother Xiao, I believe you...” “Brother Ming, only then can I leave with peace of mind.”

Xiao Xing interrupted his hesitant words. How could he not know what the other party was thinking?

Even though they had talked for a long time, without money, everything was nonsense.

“Alright then, Xiao Yi, come over and take the card to check.”

Seeing Xiao Xing say so, Chen Tianming stopped hesitating because he wanted to know more than anyone whether there was actually money in the card.

“Yes, Mayor.”

Yue Siyi walked over to take the card. As she passed by Xiao Xing, she wrinkled her nose and her lips moved slightly.

“Hmph, keep pretending. Let's see what you do when there's no money.”

Although she didn't make a sound, Xiao Xing had seen it.

To this, Xiao Xing smiled slightly, not caring about her nose-in-the-air attitude.

He knew this girl didn't have bad intentions; she was just a bit mischievous.

Ding! The balance of the Dragon People's Bank card ending in 8860 is five, trillion, yuan.

When the System announced this amount, everyone present, including the receptionists at the front desk, Chen Tianming, and Yue Siyi, were stunned on the spot.

This wasn't the city's fiscal balance, but the balance on a single person's card. This was beyond shocking.

“Brother Ming, I'm heading back.”

Xiao Xing ignored their shock and didn't care if Chen Tianming could hear him; he just walked out the door and left.

“Xiao Yi, drive Mr. Xiao Xing back, and then apologize to him properly. If he doesn't say he forgives you, don't come back.”

After Chen Tianming snapped back to reality, he hurriedly urged Yue Siyi.

Since there was money in the card, then Xiao Xing was a true big shot. No matter what, he couldn't be allowed to have even a hint of dissatisfaction.

“Mr. Xiao, let me drive you back.”

Just as Xiao Xing reached the outside, Yue Siyi ran out hurriedly, her expression looking very anxious.

If Xiao Xing was angry and didn't forgive her, she wouldn't be able to go back. So no matter what, she had to get his forgiveness.

“I'm not blind yet; I know the way myself.”

Xiao Xing glanced at the red-faced Yue Siyi and ignored her.

He wasn't angry, and he certainly didn't care about Yue Siyi's words. It didn't matter if a girl was a bit mischievous.

“I'm here to help you drive back. Where is your car?”

Yue Siyi's head kept turning, planning to see which car here was the best; that would undoubtedly be Xiao Xing's ride.

Quickly, her eyes lit up as she saw an Anti-gravity Supercar parked on the roadside, and Xiao Xing was also walking toward the exit.

Seeing this, Yue Siyi didn't even think twice and prepared to go forward to open the passenger door for Xiao Xing.

She felt there was nothing to think about; this one was the best here, so whose could it be if not Xiao Xing's?

Immediately, she broke into a small run, quickly reached the supercar's door, and reached out to pull it open.
