Chapter 1042: A Great Harvest

He Yuzhu laughed, showing disdain, "The words from the mouths of officials in your country are just like farts; I don't have time to talk to you!"

"Go into my space and become a dried corpse!" Before the words even faded, he drove his intent and directly pulled him into the space.

After finishing all this, He Yuzhu took a high-yield Timed Bomb out of the space, placed it in the corner of the room, and set the time.

He glanced at this magnificent presidential suite again, paced around, and muttered to himself: "These grandsons are really rich; they probably spent all their military budget on the renovation of this hotel."

The next second, he did not leave the hotel, but directly activated the system from that spot and teleported into the vault of the largest Central Bank in the little Japan.

After entering, he discovered that this underground vault was divided into three levels, with about one hundred tons of gold on each level.

He had to spend sixteen tons of gold to the system just to bring these three hundred tons of gold out.

For the next few days, He Yuzhu was so busy he couldn't even touch the ground.

He visited the vaults of several major banks in the little Japan without stopping, and he found that there wasn't much gold in the little Japan, but there were plenty of US dollars.

Everything that could be moved, whether it was gold, Japanese yen, or US dollars, was all cleaned out.

After moving everything, he took the opportunity to go to several military bases of M Country in the little Japan and blew up everything that could be blown up; flames soared into the sky, the sounds of explosions came one after another, and the entire little Japan fell into chaos.

One week later, He Yuzhu finally returned to Si Jiu Cheng.

At this time in Si Jiu Cheng, the epidemic had already passed its most dangerous peak, gradually falling back from the peak of over one hundred thousand infections to seventy or eighty thousand.

Although the pedestrians on the street were still wearing masks, the tense atmosphere had clearly relaxed quite a bit.

As soon as He Yuzhu returned, without even catching his breath, he rushed to the hospital to see the Doctor—she had completely recovered, her complexion was rosy, and she was full of energy.

Upon seeing He Yuzhu, the Doctor's eyes grew hot; she stepped forward and gave him a big hug, her arms clutching him tightly.

He Yuzhu was stunned by her embrace, then grinned and patted her back, teasing: "Girl, are you a bit grateful that your godfather saved you?"

Upon hearing this, the Doctor immediately let go, snorted, and rolled her eyes: "Who acknowledged you as a godfather?"

He Yuzhu laughed heartily, deliberately teasing her: "Even my own daughter-in-law says your mother has a relationship with me and says you are my biological daughter. If you don't acknowledge me as your godfather, it won't be good for your reputation later."

The Doctor was choked by his words and couldn't help but laugh: "Acknowledge you as godfather? Then I have to get my mother's permission first."

He Yuzhu didn't say a word, took out his phone, and dialed Lv Hong's number.

The call was answered quickly on the other end, and Lv Hong's voice, filled with a bit of surprise and joy, came through.

"Director Lv, I hope you have been well." He Yuzhu said with a smile: "Why haven't you contacted me for over ten years? Is it because you became a mayor and look down on a commoner like me! Your daughter came over and didn't even give me a call; my number hasn't changed at all, you know."

There was silence on the other end for a moment, then Lv Hong sighed, "Sigh, you are a big tycoon now, and I didn't want to... look like I was greedy for money. Mainly, my daughter is quite capable herself and can succeed without your help."

He Yuzhu retorted unceremoniously: "You are becoming more and more impolite when you speak."

Lv Hong laughed on the other end of the phone, her laughter still carrying that crispness from back then: "Old He, you know me, I'm not very good at saying flattering words. The way you treated me back then, when you left, I didn't even manage to say a word of thanks."

He Yuzhu said with a smile: "Come to Si Jiu Cheng. I'll give you a small courtyard. It's near Qianmen. Who told me to keep saying I'd treat you to roast duck; decades have passed, and I still haven't fulfilled it."

Lv Hong agreed with a smile: "Fine, fine, fine, I don't need your courtyard, just rent it to me."

He Yuzhu struck while the iron was hot: "By the way, I've accepted your daughter as my goddaughter. My daughter-in-law even said your daughter is my illegitimate child."

Upon hearing this, Lv Hong snorted, her tone carrying a bit of a mother's helplessness: "I agree."

He Yuzhu hung up on Lv Hong, and a scene suddenly flashed through his mind, "Liu Aihong? I remember now! Once Fang Deng brought a few classmates to our house to play, and I even cooked for you all. You must have been among them; you had two pigtails at the time, you were considered mature among the few, and you loved drinking tea. You girl, you knew about the relationship between me and your mother back then but just wouldn't say it, right?"

The Doctor listened from the side and nodded, "Everyone says you have a good memory, but when we met for the second time, you didn't remember me either."

He Yuzhu chuckled, "Hey, I see so many people every day, how could I remember everyone? It's already good enough that I could remember it."

He Yuzhu put away the smile on his face, his tone becoming serious: "The vaccine, how many years until it comes out?"

The Doctor thought for a moment and answered truthfully: "At the fastest, two years. But if this epidemic passes quickly, is there still a need for us to make a vaccine?"

He Yuzhu nodded heavily, his gaze firm: "It is absolutely necessary. Those people from M Country, they won't let go of any opportunity to make us perish as a nation and a race. In their eyes, whoever surpasses them must be suppressed by them. They will keep working on the negative aspects of the Gene Vaccine..."

After listening, the Doctor nodded vigorously, "I will work hard!"

He Yuzhu patted her shoulder: "Feel free to recruit people, expand the scale, and don't be afraid of spending money. Don't skimp on the equipment that needs to be bought or the people who need to be hired."

The Doctor suddenly smiled, with a bit of cunning: "I've heard some news again—over in the little Japan, many banks have had incidents."

He Yuzhu raised an eyebrow, "How do you know?"

The Doctor shrugged, "Hey, who doesn't have a few friends?"

After seeing the Doctor, He Yuzhu rushed to Secretary Liu's residence without stopping.

Secretary Liu was leaning on a cane, and as soon as he saw him, he thumped it hard on the ground, making a "thump, thump, thump" sound, "Zhuzi, your courage is getting bigger and bigger."

Just as He Yuzhu was about to explain, Secretary Liu waved his hand, "But I won't criticize you this time. You did the right thing; it can be considered as venting our anger."

He Yuzhu sat down on the sofa opposite Secretary Liu and said: "I won't hide it from you, I also did one more thing—I wrote a letter to that person in the White House. I told him that if they dare to provoke me again, I will make their world shake."

Upon hearing this, a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Secretary Liu's mouth, "I guessed it. They sent quite a few people over to demand negotiations with us, but we didn't agree to any of it; we didn't admit to anything..."

He Yuzhu was silent for a moment, his tone carrying a bit of apology: "I feel a bit sorry toward you. Writing that letter to the person in the White House, I didn't ask for your consent beforehand."

Secretary Liu smiled and waved his hand, the wrinkles on his face smoothing out: "Hey, this is all your personal behavior, it has nothing to do with the organization. Precisely because of this, M Country can't do anything about you. They are gradually learning of your abilities now, and if they want to cause trouble, you just accompany them... Our missile research has also made breakthrough progress... We aren't too afraid of them now."

He Yuzhu's eyes lit up: "I brought back quite a few good things this time, and I'm planning to send them to the Military Factory."

Secretary Liu nodded, leaning forward while leaning on his cane: "Good. I won't hide it from you, the Aircraft Carrier Project you proposed is something we have also been secretly working on, it's just that we haven't announced it to the public."

He Yuzhu grinned, his smile filled with a bit of excitement and a bit of longing: "I truly look forward to the day our country can hold its head high."

Secretary Liu raised his hand and patted his shoulder, his gaze full of certainty: "This day will come very soon..."

He Yuzhu nodded heavily, a light flashing in his eyes: "I have looked forward to this day for a long time. Those people in M Country are actually just bullies who fear the strong. If you ignore them, they will keep testing your bottom line. But once you beat them down, they immediately act like grandsons..."

Secretary Liu nodded meaningfully: "However, through cultural export, they have packaged themselves too well. This has made the intellectuals of many countries truly believe in their set of ideas, thinking they are omnipotent, and thinking that as long as they can poach talent from all over the world, they can maintain technological leadership forever..."

He Yuzhu looked at Secretary Liu with a smile: "Leader, your vision is truly forward-looking."

Secretary Liu was amused and stood up, walking two steps toward the dining table: "Alright, stop the flattery. Stay for dinner."

Just as He Yuzhu was about to agree, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated, the ringtone sounding urgent. He took it out and saw it was his mother, Shen Guizhi, calling. As soon as he answered, his mother's uncontrollable sobbing came from the other end.

He Yuzhu's heart sank abruptly: "Mother, what happened to you?"
