Seized by the System

“What are you sulking about? When this is done, and the prices of items decline, won’t your family benefit from this as well? This is a huge matter that will benefit the country, the people, and yourself, it won’t be possible for a person who’s not a saint. The moment you accomplish this, you’ll be given all the credit. Regarding Elder Ancestor Bai’s matter, I’m sure you’ve heard vaguely that without meritorious services, ten of them were already exterminated by the Venerable One. Now, it’s only a suppression, it’s already very fortunate.” At last, Ren Ruofeng exhorted.

“Uh, yes, yes. Advisor, you truly have great foresight, while I’m very short-sighted, I can’t compare, I can’t compare.” Xie Dong was aggrieved.

“Quickly get on with it, I’d like to see your progress report three days later.” With a bossy posture that said “I only look at the ends results, not the means”, Ren Ruofeng ordered him.

Xie Dong carried the proposal book then left angrily.

As a matter of course, this proposal was highly feasible.

That being said, it would definitely be a tricky one, and it would be exceptionally exhausting.

How far apart were the sea routes of China and America? Previously, he had followed Twelve Arms to travel on the ocean so he had a rough idea of it. Even if it was not two thousand miles apart, it was at least eighteen thousand miles apart…

With such a long sea route, and the precarious situation underneath the surface, he wondered how many big demons were hiding down there.

In the ocean, the size of strange creatures was far bigger than those on land.

Before the Era of Vitality, when the biggest sea animal and the biggest animal on land were compared, the latter could only admit defeat.

How could an elephant compare with a blue whale?

As for now, when the Era of Vitality begun, there were countless big primitive demons hiding in the ocean, which were way more horrifying than the ones on land.

Under these circumstances, one could imagine how tough it would be to maintain the traffic safety on the ocean…

‘Oh, it might not necessarily be that case…’

“Hehe, I have an idea.” Xie Dong took the proposal and ran speedily back to his office.

He browsed through the book hastily, which was so detailed that it gave him goosebumps. It seemed like Advisor Ren did put in a lot of effort in as it seemed no stone was unturned.

From the specific harbors to be guarded to the arrangements of patrol points, the guard measures, and the defense mechanisms. Everything was stated very clearly.

The only thing was that when compared with that Venerable Dragon God, all of this did not seem like much.

Very quickly, he dialed through a number.

“Hello, is this Butler Zheng? It’s me, Xie Dong.

“Yes, I’d like to meet with the Harmony Powers to discuss the issue of the ocean’s security defense.

“Alright, alright, don’t worry about the funds. Sea transportation is currently paralyzed, many ship owners are terribly battered, I”m sure they’ll be happy to render their services.

“Yes, yes, we’ll directly allocate funds for the transportation’s special maintenance fee.”

After the phone call, Xie Dong leaned against the couch. He was feeling proud.

‘As expected, after I took up this leading position, my vision has become different.

‘Back then, I only thought about how I should do things. Now, I’ll think about who I should look for to carry out tasks for me…

‘Unfortunately, my budget is quite high. Whatever, I’m not the one paying for this anyway. Besides, I believe many people will be happy to fork out their money.’

…

In the System Space.

“We have work to do!” When Fang Ning was cultivating, Sir System roared, which nearly caused him to go into deviatory psychosis… That was impossible.

“What are you doing? Instead of cultivating, you’re here to disturb my sleep.” Fang Ning shouted.

That was right, the reason it was unlikely for him to go into deviatory psychosis was that he fell asleep when he was cultivating… It would be odd if he were to deviate.

“What are you cultivating, you were clearly snoring just now.” Sir was straightforward.

“Forget it, what job were you talking about, tell me about it?” Fang Ning felt rather guilty, he quickly skipped the topic.

“Old Ren and the others are thinking of opening a safe passage across the ocean, they’re hoping that we’ll participate in it.”
