“Delayed?!”
Ji Feng was slightly stunned, then he laughed and said, “Little Uncle, I was just about to tell you about this ……”
He was only slightly stunned, but quickly reacted to what matter Xiang Jiefang was talking about. His agreement with Xiang Jiefang was apparently the deadline for him to manufacture the laser gun, originally they had agreed on a year, but now almost half a year had pa*sed, presumably because Xiang Jiefang knew that he had encountered difficulties when he saw that he hadn’t made any movements by now.
After all, Ji Feng had asked Xiang Yongzhan and the military to help him find the alpha ore, which Xiang Jiefang knew, and he also knew that the ore was used to make the energy source for the laser gun, so Xiang Jiefang probably thought that he would not be able to complete the agreement within a year.
And now that he had done such a great job, he offered to delay the agreement.
But how could Ji Feng delay the time? Even without the alpha ore, he would definitely develop a nuclear energy reactor that could be suitable as an energy source in the remaining six months.
Although Ji Feng’s starting point was not to expect anything in return for saving Xiang Yongzhan, this was after all a great favor to Xiang Jiefang, and Ji Feng naturally would not use it up at this time.
Perhaps one day in the future, he would need the help of Xiang Jiefang!
“Say what?!”
Ji Zhenping asked, “It’s something you agreed with Chief Xiang, right?”
Ji Feng nodded and said, “That’s right. However, it’s not about extending the appointment, but about the energy source …… Little Uncle, I’ve found the Alpha Ore!”
“What?!”
Ji Zhenping was delighted at the sound of his words and hurriedly asked, “When in found it? Where is the location?”
Ji Feng said, “It was just today that I found it, however, there was some trouble!”
“Today?!”
Ji Zhenping was stunned at his words, hadn’t they just returned today? How did they have time to find the ore?
Ji Feng then explained the matter in detail and said, “Now, as long as we find a way to figure out where this ore comes from, we will have a chance to get a large quantity of it, and as long as we have the ore, I can manufacture the laser gun anytime!”
“In that case, things are really a bit troublesome!”
Ji Zhenping smiled and did not have to frown slightly, no wonder Ji Feng would say that things were troublesome, this actually involved the Treasure Island. If it was in the mainland, no matter which family’s people found the Alpha Ore, there were ways to get it over, the big deal was to exchange benefits and not let them lose out.
Alpha ore is a completely strategic material that the country absolutely has to get its hands on.
But the problem is that it involves the Bao family of Bao Island, which is a bit difficult to do.
Even if the state is strong, it cannot reach out to Bao Island!
Of course, the bilateral situation and the various forces were complicated, and the situation was very sensitive now, so if the Bao family was in the middle of it, things would really be difficult.
Ji Zhenping pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, “No matter what, the Alpha ore must be obtained, and on the Bao family’s side, think of another way, if it is not possible, let the people on the island put pressure on the Bao family!”
“The people of the island?!” Ji Feng was a bit puzzled.
“In Bao Island, there are also people who are inclined towards us, the rapid development of China over the years is all there for all to see, some people can see the direction of our development and our future potential!” Ji Zhenping explained.
Ji Feng then understood that although there were some forces on the Treasure Island that were pro-Beijing Peng and Rice, and these forces were big, but no matter how much they propagandised, some people’s eyes were discerning.
Even though there are still problems and shortcomings in China, and there are many dark sides, the rapid development of China over the years and the huge potential of China cannot be denied. In fact, there are many people on the island who have made their fortunes through economic and trade relations with the mainland, and there are not a few of them!
It can be said that a part of the economy of Treasure Island is now inseparable from the Mainland.
“But I’m afraid it’s not enough for these people to put pressure on the Bao family alone?” Ji Feng asked.
“Our people, meaning the top bra*s of Treasure Island!” Ji Zhenping said, “In addition, if it’s not enough, then activate some of our arrangements!”
“Arrangements?!” Ji Feng was stunned.
Ji Zhenping nodded and said, “That’s right, since the Alpha Ore has been discovered, it’s imperative to get it! I have this matter in mind, turn around and have Xiang Yongzhan make a report that he believes in, we will have our own considerations!”
Ji Feng was a bit suspicious, what did Little Uncle mean by the arrangement?
But when he asked again, Ji Zhenping didn’t explain too much, so he had to stop and said, “Little Uncle, I actually plan to go to Treasure Island by myself.”
Ji Zhenping asked, “You’re going?”
Ji Feng nodded and said, “Well, I’m going. I know the most about Alpha Ore and I have to go and see it for myself to be sure.”
Ji Zhenping asked, “Can’t you wait for the ore to be delivered to you while you’re in Jiangzhou?”
Ji Feng faintly shook his head and said, “There are some ores that are not suitable for energy sources, and there are other considerations involved that cannot be seen from the back of the house, you have to be there in person to take a look.”
“But you are going to Treasure Island, you are not familiar with the place, plus you have a grudge against the Bao family, how can you guarantee the safety aspect?” Ji Zhenping asked.
“My safety, the Bao family can’t threaten it yet!” Ji Feng smiled.
“Let’s talk about this later.”
Ji Zhenping didn’t agree immediately, Ji Feng might not understand the situation within Treasure Island, but he knew very well that if Ji Feng had a grudge against the Bao family, the Bao family would definitely retaliate, and, with Ji Feng’s character, there was no guarantee that something wouldn’t happen when he arrived on Treasure Island!
All these situations had to be carefully considered.
“Going out for a few days, you’re also tired, I’ll have someone send you back to rest first, remember to call your dad to report a safe trip!” Ji Zhenping said.
Right now he still had a lot of things to deal with, the return of the special operations brigade, the impact it would have, and the situation Ji Feng had provided regarding the Alpha Ore, all of these needed to be dealt with as soon as possible, so he would be busy for the next few days and would not have time to greet Ji Feng.
Ji Feng nodded, having been away for a few days, he also missed Lei Lei and Yu Xuan and the girls, so he didn’t stay much longer, first he got his mobile phone and some equipment from Little Uncle, then he instructed Little Uncle about the destruction procedure of that defective laser cannon, then he went back in one of the military vehicles sent by Ji Zhenping.
On the way back, however, Ji Feng was the first one to dial his father, Ji Zhenhua’s phone number.
“Dad, it’s me.”
As soon as the call was answered, Ji Feng said, “I’m back.”
Ji Zhenhua’s voice was as gentle and unhurried as ever: “It’s good that you’re back! I’m relieved that you’re back.”
Ji Feng then smiled, although his father didn’t quite express some of his emotions, he was able to feel them. When he came back, his father was relieved, then before that, his father had naturally been carrying his heart!
“Little Feng, you have done very well!”
Ji Zhenhua was very pleased, although outsiders didn’t know the role Ji Feng played in this, but he was clear about it, when the first time Xiang Yongzhan reported to the top, Ji Zhenhua knew, “Your grandfather’s place, I’ve also spoken about it, he sent you a message.”
Ji Feng immediately asked, “What words?”
Ji Zhenhua said, “Your grandfather asked me to convey to you that with you, the Ji family, there is a successor!”
That was a very high comment!
Ji Feng couldn’t help but say, “Grandpa is really overpraised, in fact, this also has an element of luck, I didn’t expect things to develop in this way ……”
“The fact that you were able to do it proves your ability!” Ji Zhenhua laughed twice, obviously very cheerful, nothing would make a father happier than seeing his son grow up, “Work hard, don’t slack off and don’t be complacent.”
“Mmm!”
Ji Feng nodded heavily.
Ji Zhenhua then smiled and complimented him twice, and hung up the phone without further ado.
After ending the call, Ji Feng put away his phone while slightly closing his eyes. He didn’t feel complacent because of his grandfather’s praise, because he knew that his grandfather’s promise of being on top of the world within ten years had only just begun.
At the very least, the Tengfei Group must first become an international mega giant before he can do more and better!
When she returned home, Tong Lei was meeting with the head of a design company at a cafe near the villa area to discuss some designs for the school and some other matters.
She had been busy with this for some time recently, and, as she had put a lot of energy into it, Ji Feng was happy to see her so busy, which was what she liked doing the most.
If you like someone, it doesn’t mean you have to let her give up her dreams for herself. Ji Feng hopes that every woman around her will do what she likes to do, and that’s the best outcome.
After Tong Lei finished meeting the head of the design company, the two of them returned home and warmed up while discussing school matters. Tong Lei talked through her vision, and Ji Feng gave some suggestions. Tong Lei thought about it and quickly went to revise her proposal.
Ji Feng couldn’t help but smile bitterly and shake his head as he watched. Rei Rei was already not talking much, and when he got busy, he was even more left out.
He had no choice but to accompany Tong Lei after dinner, she went back to work, Ji Feng raised his hand and looked at the time, then went to the company.
When he came to the company, he found that Xiao Yuxuan was also busy with the documents, so Ji Feng said, “You go ahead and get busy, I’ll go sit at Han Zhong’s place and have a cigarette instantly.”
“You’d better not go, he’s busy now too!” Xiao Yuxuan said, “Besides, it’s not appropriate for you to go to his place for a smoke.”
“Why?!”
Ji Feng asked with a smile, “Is smoking banned at his place too?”
The office of Tengfei Group is a no-smoking place, and Ji Feng naturally did not want others to smoke second-hand, so every time he came, he either went to Han Zhong’s office to smoke with that guy, or he went to the security department to find Yi Xingchen and a few of them, so how come he still can’t smoke now?
“He ah …… Wang Jun came, I just came back, the two are still there to make out with each other, you go not to disturb people!” Xiao Yuxuan gave him a white look.
