疯狂的妻子

"Mr. Yuan, hello!" Liu Yong greeted Yuan Heng warmly, and the two exchanged a handshake that conveyed a long-standing friendship. Such camaraderie was typical in business, where harmony in dealings was highly valued.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Yuan Heng courteously invited Liu Yong into the reception room, where they settled down to business. Liu Yong wasted no time and delved straight into the topic.

"Mr. Yuan, I am in need of a customized deep-sea light source capable of withstanding the immense pressure at a depth of 4,000 meters..."

Liu Yong outlined his specific requirements, and Yuan Heng attentively listened to every detail. After contemplating, Yuan Heng responded, "Given the depth of the seawater, adapting to such extreme pressure might necessitate a relatively large, cumbersome, and heavy light source."

Curious about the weight, Liu Yong inquired, "How much would it weigh?"

Yuan Heng replied, "It may weigh more than one ton."

Relieved by the manageable weight, Liu Yong confidently stated, "One or two tons is of no concern as long as it can withstand the pressure at a depth of four thousand meters."

The two engaged in a lengthy discussion, both satisfied with the prospects of customizing the deep-sea light source. As for the price, negotiations were a mere formality.

Yuan Heng offered 15 million yuan, but Liu Yong was not interested in bargaining. Even 20 million yuan would be acceptable if the product met his expectations. With the deep-sea light source matter settled, Liu Yong paid a deposit of 5 million yuan. However, as he prepared to leave, Yuan Heng had an additional request.

"Mr. Liu, please wait a moment. There is something else I would like to ask for your help with."

Surprised by Yuan Heng's plea, Liu Yong reassured him, "If there's anything I can do to assist, please don't hesitate to ask."

With a touch of nervousness, Yuan Heng rubbed his hands together, his eyes filled with hope. "Mr. Liu, here's the thing. I wish to rent a half-floor office space in the Universal Building, but I was informed that all the floors have already been leased."

Yuan Heng's desire to secure an office in the Universal Building stemmed from its status as a landmark Grade A office building in Huahai City. Working in such a prestigious location was a matter of prestige, and every company, regardless of its size, longed to have a presence there.

Naturally, with the building's popularity, all floors were swiftly leased within a few days, despite the high rental costs. Yuan Heng missed the opportunity, but with Liu Yong's visit and the warm reception, he saw a glimmer of hope.

Expressing his regret, Liu Yong replied, "Mr. Yuan, the Universal Building is completely rented out at the moment, and I have no available floor to offer you."

Yuan Heng's hopeful expression faded slightly. Recognizing his disappointment, Liu Yong offered some consolation, saying, "Why don't we wait until next year? If any floors become available,I will give you priority."

After hearing Liu Yong's suggestion, Yuan Heng's face lit up with joy. "Really? That would be fantastic!"

Accepting that there was no possibility this year, they agreed to revisit the idea next year. Securing an office in the Universal Building became a hopeful prospect for Yuan Heng.

As Liu Yong departed from Dingfeng Deep Sea Equipment Co., Ltd., he sat in his car and contemplated the resolution of the deep-sea light source matter. However, he couldn't help but marvel at the immense popularity of the Universal Building, to the point where Yuan Heng sought his assistance to secure an office there.

Nonetheless, the opportunity would have to wait until next year. Liu Yong reassured himself, knowing that time would bring forth new possibilities.

Returning to the Global Shipping Group and assuming his position in the boss's chair, Liu Yong contemplated the progress of the deep-sea cleanup project. With the marine light source requirements taken care of, he shifted his focus to the cleaning efforts of Bawang.

Deep in the North Pacific Ocean, at a depth of over 3,000 meters, Bawang diligently carried out its work. Over the past two days, it diligently used its claws instead of the giant spear to clear away the covered mud and rocks, displaying remarkable efficiency.

Within a short span, it had cleared an area of thousands of square meters and unearthed tens of thousands of tons of soil. The thickness of the covering layer varied from a few meters to over ten meters, revealing the underlying grey-black metal.

Liu Yong couldn't help but feel a surge of delight at the sight before him. "Overlord, your efficiency is truly remarkable."

Inquisitively, Liu Yong asked, "Can you guess what this is?"

Through a third-party perspective, Liu Yong carefully observed the exposed grey-black metal spanning thousands of square meters but couldn't discern its true nature.

"For now, I can't determine its identity, but I am confident that it originates from an alien civilization," Liu Yong speculated, affirming the extraordinary nature of the find.

Although thousands of square meters may seem substantial, it paled compared to the "big mountain" spanning over 100 kilometres in length and several kilometres in width. It was a mere fraction of the colossal structure.

Liu Yong turned to Overlord and said, "Continue clearing a larger area. The more we uncover, the closer we get to unraveling the mystery of this mountain."

With no immediate rush, Liu Yong knew that this relic had rested undisturbed on the ocean floor for 50,000 years and wouldn't escape his grasp. Once Bawang cleared a more extensive area, he planned to descend to the seabed himself and witness the enigma firsthand.

Over the next few days, Bawang became a diligent mountain excavator, relying on its giant claws to remove the soil obstructing the path. When fatigue set in, Bawang retreated to its temporary cave, free of dirt and revealing its shiny grey-black metallic surface.

Feeling hunger gnawing at its core, Bawang embarked on a journey with its giant spear, venturing to a trench sixty to seventy nautical miles away to hunt down the colossal octopuses dwelling there.

Today, after cleaning the soil for a few hours, Bawang took a break. It swam around the vast "big mountain" expanse and carefully surveyed its surroundings. Slowly completing a large circle, it halted near its base in the middle of the mountain.

At that moment, Bawang sensed that something was amiss in that particular spot. There was an intriguing anomaly.

Puzzled, Liu Yong shook his head when observing the exposed grey-black metal. Unable to determine its true nature, he admitted, "I can't see what this is at the moment, but I'm certain it belongs to an alien civilization."

With the goal of unravelling the mystery, Liu Yong suggested that Bawang continue cleaning a larger area. The more they uncovered, the closer they would come to understanding the true nature of the "big mountain."

Bawang diligently worked as a mountain digger, using its giant claws to clear the soil obstructing its path. When tired, Bawang would retreat to its clean temporary cave, showcasing the shiny grey-black metal beneath the dirt's layers.

Taking a break from its excavation, Bawang swam around the "big mountain" to survey the area. As it reached the middle of the mountain, near its base, Bawang noticed something peculiar—a distinctive anomaly that stood out from the rest.

Curiosity piqued, Liu Yong couldn't discern the anomaly from his vantage point. Nevertheless, the discovery fueled his determination to explore further. He decided to wait until Bawang cleared a larger area, allowing him to witness the enigma of the grey-black metal on the seabed himself.
