Walking under the streetlights, Qin Mantong's figure appeared very lonely.
The cool breeze blew towards her, and she tightened her coat, took out her phone, and called Bai Huanyu.
"Succeeded."
The brief three words made Bai Huanyu sit up imdiately on the other end of the phone.
"You said you failed a few hours ago, how co you've succeeded now?" Bai Huanyu asked insistently.
Qin Mantong sighed deeply, "I told you, the process doesn't matter, as long as the outco is the sa."
After a brief silence, Bai Huanyu didn't ask further and said, "Well done, I'll transfer five million to your account first. In the future, paynt will depend on the value of the intelligence you provide.
Regarding money, you can rest assured; I won't let you suffer any loss."
Not long after the call ended, the five million was credited to her account.
Qin Mantong looked at the long string of zeros and slightly furrowed her brows.
Isn't this what she wanted?
But after getting what she wanted, why can't she feel happy?
Letting Bai Huanyu believe that Xiao Feng had been successfully "subdued" by her, of course, was Xiao Feng himself.
Setting aside personal grudges, money like this should not go unearned.
To make sure Bai Huanyu believed it, Xiao Feng even had Qin Mantong take a photo of himself asleep on his side, with bare shoulders and back, and a short video to accompany it.
Of course, it wasn't an indescribable video; the content was also just sleeping.
The difference is, videos are more convincing than photos.
For a long ti, Qin Mantong laughed at herself, "Turns out... we're not even on the sa level anymore."
She repeatedly thought about the long talk with Xiao Feng before they parted ways and concluded that Xiao Feng never took Bai Huanyu seriously from the start.
While Bai Huanyu seed like an insurmountable mountain to her.
And thinking back to the famous people attending the grand opening of Fenghua Xueyue...
Qin Mantong had to admit that the gap between the present Xiao Feng and herself was excessively large.
However, she didn't regret only realizing this now.
Looking at the additional five million in her account, Qin Mantong couldn't help but ask herself, "Is it worth it?"
...
At dawn, Xiao Feng gathered everyone for a eting.
Among the twenty-odd people, the most striking was Old Ha, with a bruised nose and swollen face, limping as he walked.
He looked at Xiao Feng, trying hard to adjust his expression to "I am very pitiful" in hopes the Boss would say a few words for him.
At the very least, getting so dical expenses would be good.
However, Xiao Feng didn't even look at him and directly announced that the morning training was canceled; everyone had to go out and find chickens.
Upon hearing this decision, everyone's expressions were rather interesting.
Aspergillus oryzae chuckled, thinking maybe the Boss saw the group under too much pressure recently, and was kindly letting them go out and release so stress?
Thinking this way, Aspergillus oryzae felt so touched, he almost wanted to cry a little.
The rest, however, had quite different thoughts.
The martial monks all looked at Hui Shiba and started to mock rcilessly.
"Little eighteen, you need to teach us, your brothers, this well."
"Right, right, you might not be good in other aspects, but in this, you have more experience than any of us."
Hui Shiba blushed, knowing no matter how he tried to explain, he couldn't clear things up.
This phenonon often occurs among close friends; even though everyone knows sothing is false, the way it's talked about makes it seem real.
Being unable to defend oneself against a hundred argunts, there's nothing more frustrating.
Xiao Feng clapped his hands, "Stop joking, I need you to find roosters, wild ones preferably, but dostic ones will do too.
The requirent is that they should be large, with shiny feathers, strong and sturdy, not too old.
Chickens from farms are not considered; don't think you can just buy one from the market to pass it off."
After speaking, Xiao Feng signaled everyone to set off imdiately, then sat in the wicker chair in the yard.
On the table beside him was not the usual teapot and cups, but a chanical design map occupying the entire table.
In Xiao Feng's view, the most important things right now are twofold.
First, the issue of breeding the offspring of Xiaoxiang beads.
Second, setting up the chanisms in the yard.
Neither of these tasks is easy to accomplish.
The forr requires luck, the latter requires a lot of preparation and related knowledge.
After receiving their orders, everyone left, and Xiao Feng delved into studying the blueprints, taking paper, pen, ruler, and compass to sketch various shapes on the paper. Beside the shapes, he listed formulas for calculations.
After all, even though there are design blueprints, different areas require changes in structure.
Especially with this kind of interlocking chain setup, missing one link ans all previous efforts are wasted, and you have to start all over again from scratch.
So, not even the slightest mistake can be made!
The entire morning, Xiao Feng was busy with this, discarding drawing after drawing, amounting to at least around three hundred sheets.
Zhao Guo'an, who had co once in the morning, arrived as expected by lunchti and was surprised to see Xiao Feng still engrossed in his drawing and writing.
"Old Xiao, how are you suddenly so diligent and eager to learn?" Zhao Guo'an exclaid.
"Move aside, I don't have ti to entertain you right now," Xiao Feng replied without looking up.
Zhao Guo'an circled to the back, gazing at the listed formulas and neatly drawn diagrams, feeling incredulous.
This guy is actually multitalented?
"Slap!"
The fountain pen in his hand was smacked onto the pile of paper by Xiao Feng, who rubbed his temples, feeling a throbbing headache.
"Finished?" Zhao Guo'an asked.
Xiao Feng shook his head, "Only a third done."
"Is it that complex?" Zhao Guo'an suggested, "Why not just hire a professional to do it?"
Xiao Feng looked up at him, saying nothing, but the expression in his eyes clearly conveyed: Are you stupid?
Finding a professional to customize a suitable placent plan for the courtyard is sothing Xiao Feng had thought about.
But if he really did that, the security would no longer be guaranteed.
The person who designs the plans will definitely know where the safe spots are, and if it leaks, all efforts would be in vain.
So, Xiao Feng would rather strain his brain than let others design it.
"Are you cooking for lunch?" Zhao Guo'an changed the topic.
Xiao Feng stood up to stretch, "Just stir-fry a few dishes. Those who can make it back for lunch can eat, and those who can't, well too bad."
"Got it." Zhao Guo'an nodded and went off to manage his own tasks.
Around noon, Old Ha was the first to return, holding a big rooster in his arms.
"Boss, this one I found ets your requirents completely. Look at these claws, this feather color, and this at," Old Ha held the rooster overhead, showing off his morning results.
But the next mont, sothing sticky and similar to earth-color got on his head.
"Huh?"
Old Ha frowned, reached up to touch, then sniffed it near his nose, and imdiately flew into a rage, "Damn it! It dares to poop on my head; I'm going to kill it and cook it now!"
