Chapter 1797: Investment or loan

They had only confirmed their romantic relationship last night, and Yang Jin was taking out gifts one after another this morning, which meant these things were prepared beforehand.

If she hadn't agreed to take a step further with him, what would happen to these materials? Exchange them with her?

No, that's not right. There were no "ifs." It was she who had changed her tone first and expressed a close attitude, and then he spoke up saying he wanted to take a step further. Therefore, there was no "if" at all. Xia Qing stopped wasting precious brain cells on this question and raised her eyes to look at Yang Jin, who was sitting in a wheelchair, "Brother Jin, is this also a gift?"

Looking at the size of this box, what should be inside should be a bracelet-shaped weapon.

Yang Jin shook his head, "I saw that you haven't continued to clear the homestead during this period. Have you changed your plan and want to build a fortress?"

Now, Xia Qing understood what was in the box and nodded.

Yang Jin asked, "The construction cost of the fortress should be over ten million, right?"

Xia Qing was silent for two seconds and replied, "Over sixty-three million."

This price range was far beyond Yang Jin's guess, "It seems there is something special inside this fortress, and both the safety and living comfort levels are off the charts. Sister Qing has already received the material list, right? You haven't bought the materials yet because you don't have enough points? How many points is Sister Qing still short of?"

Xia Qing answered truthfully, "I only have over ten million. I have already entrusted Xin Yu to help me purchase the exterior wall panels, which are the same building materials as Xin Yu's small building; they will arrive after the Qi-rain. After selling the strawberry seedlings, fig seedlings, and a portion of the spinach seeds, I will start purchasing the main structural materials for the fortress in batches."

After wrapping the exterior wall panels like those of the White Building in Territory No. 8, no matter from which angle outside, people would think that the big boss's house was just a new-material White Building with a construction cost of several hundred thousand to over one million.

Therefore, when the big boss submitted an application to the relevant departments of the Lan-1 base, hoping to use the opportunity of the Giant Whale helicopter's test flight to move, the Lan-1 high-level officials thought he wanted to improve the comfort of his family during the journey and approved it directly.

By the time they learned the truth, the Wu family's fortress had already flown away from the safe zone and couldn't be intercepted.

What Xia Qing wanted to build was this kind of fortress that was covered with a vest, with off-the-charts camouflage, sense of security, and comfort.

She was a top-tier sniper with multiple jobs and also the girlfriend of the iron-rooster Yang Jin. Spending several hundred thousand points to build a house wasn't too outrageous and wouldn't arouse suspicion.

Yang Jin asked, "Can Sister Qing send me the material list to take a look? The channels I have don't overlap much with Xin Yu's. What she can't buy, I might be able to."

Xia Qing first confirmed Yang Jin's intention, "Is Brother Jin planning to lend me points? How many can you lend me?"

Xia Qing had previously mentioned to Fourth Brother, the Broken-Waist Wolf, and Does Daigua, asking them to invest in her fortress.

Both stingy wolves disagreed. Fourth Brother didn't mention what it was saving points for, and the Broken-Waist Wolf clearly stated it wanted to buy a Giant Whale helicopter, so its point gap was even larger than Xia Qing's.

Does Daigua took out 190,000 points to invest and obtained permanent residency in a tree nest inside the fortress.

The iron-rooster Yang Jin was the captain of the Qinglong Battle Team; his personal assets must be quite substantial. If he was willing to invest a portion and then lend her ten million, that would be great.

Given their current relationship and level of trust, the difficulty of getting an interest-free or low-interest loan from him should not be... high, right?

Yang Jin, sitting in the wheelchair, entered the state immediately, "Sister Qing, what is the difference between investing and lending points?"

"One share is 9 million points, and you can invest up to two shares. Each share can get permanent residency in one bedroom inside the fortress and can use the living room, kitchen, and bathroom inside the fortress. If you add another 500,000 per share, you can enjoy the right to choose a bedroom with priority and can also get 5 cubic meters of storage space in the basement or attic."

After making a detailed explanation, Xia Qing solemnly reminded Yang Jin of the risks of investing in the fortress, "What I want to build is a highly intelligent fortress. After you enter the fortress, your life will be in my hands. This matter is not urgent; Brother Jin should consider it carefully before making a decision. If you lend points, we will follow the rules of the safe zone. I guarantee to pay it off in batches within two years."

"The owner having the highest authority is a basic function of the fortress. If it cannot guarantee the safety of the owner, this fortress is not worth over sixty million." Yang Jin took 8 black-gold point cards out of his pocket, put them into the box on the table, and then pushed the box toward Xia Qing.

"These are 18 point cards, each containing one million points. Many thanks to Sister Qing for giving me the opportunity to invest and choose a room. Sister Qing, let me take a look at the material list; let me see if I can lower the construction cost of the fortress."

Xia Qing stared at the box on the table for a full ten seconds before picking it up, putting it into her pocket, and then sending the material list to Yang Jin, "Many thanks to Brother Jin for being willing to trust me. You should prepare; we should set off in half an hour."

After walking out of the conference room carrying the gifts and 18 million points in her pocket, Xia Qing first sent a message to her idol and then opened the territory intercom before driving back to the deserted village.

Tang Heng's voice came from the intercom; he was analyzing the intrusion incident and the macaque killing incident from the day before yesterday, "I think the most urgent matter now is not to talk about compensation with the forces behind the invaders, but to prepare for the evolutionary macaque attack during the Qi-rain period. We are adjacent to the Hui-6 base. If the Hui-6 base brings disaster to the east, we will soon be confronting the macaque pack."

Wen Wen Nengjie came online, "Heng-ge is absolutely right! The evolutionary macaques in Hui-6 have long been eyeing the evolutionary forest around us. Last spring, the macaque pack took advantage of the beast tide launched by the Western Wolf Pack and almost snatched their territory."

Zhu Li, who came out of the Soil Research Department with Tang Heng, also pressed the intercom button, "I think being neighbors with wolves is safer than being neighbors with macaques. Because the macaques' diet highly overlaps with humans, they can eat everything we grow in the greenhouses. And macaques can climb trees; our iron-mesh walls simply can't stop the monkey pack."

Zhao Ze also came online, "If you ask me, being neighbors with wolves is safer than being neighbors with humans. You haven't seen the looks on the faces of the people who received the mission to come and clean up Territory 201 these past few days; it's like seeing a big piece of meat."

Shi Mu came online, "Zhao Ze, you must bring a gun when you go out on missions in the future; you must pay attention to safety. When everyone is active in the evolutionary forest, try not to have conflicts with the wolf pack as much as possible. If you anger the Divine Wolf, we won't be under its protection here."

Zhao Ze came online again, "Many thanks, Auntie. I bring a gun every time, and besides, even if I didn't bring a gun, two or three ordinary people wouldn't be my match."

Zhao Ze had spent the last two years paying points to participate in the Qinglong Battle Team's special training; he hadn't been practicing for nothing.

Tang Huai also came online to remind, "Auntie is right. Recently is the breeding season for the wolf pack; everyone must not go near the core territory of the wolf pack when going out to hunt."

Zhang San, who received Xia Qing's text message, came online lazily, "Xia Qing."

The big boss came online to call the alliance leader, and everyone immediately shut up, pricking up their ears to listen.

Xia Qing, who was assigning the day's work tasks to the two little ones, waited for a few seconds before pressing the intercom button, "Here, Third Brother, please speak."

"Do you have any arrangements this morning?"

Hearing this, everyone knew the big boss was going to send Xia Qing on a mission.

Di Ming and Wu Wu Lianmin in Territory No. 11 began to roll up their sleeves, Tang Huai in the insect-rearing greenhouse of Territory No. 12 put his finger on the intercom button, and Zhang Zhang Hongda in Territory No. 15 ran toward the dormitory to change into a Level 4 field protective suit.
