Chapter 785
Although the underwater cruising speed of Droplet was very fast, it would still take about one week for the round trip . Ghost Agents in Europe moved Evelyn from Hungary to neighboring Serbia and were on their way to Albania .

The Ghost Agents would temporarily place him in Albania, waiting for Droplet to arrive before transferring him onto it . Once he boarded Droplet, it meant he would be free .
When he arrived in Xin, he would act as a bargaining chip between Jiang Chen and Russia .
The next day, Ayesha made breakfast for Jiang Chen then went to Coconut Island’s dock . As a private holiday harbor for Jiang Chen, it had been used as the storage place for Droplet .
After waking up and not seeing Ayesha, Jiang Chen knew she already left .
This also meant that in the next week, he had to be inside this empty mansion, all alone . The thought of it made him feel lonely .
After breakfast, Jiang Chen sat on the sofa and rested for a moment . He got up and turned off the TV and went to the kitchen with a plate . After putting the chopsticks and plates into the dishwasher, he took a shower in the bathroom, put on formal attire, and went straight to the garage .
Since there was nothing to do, he went to the office .
Driving the converted Lamborghini, Jiang Chen deliberately took a detour on the way to Future Building, heading on the expressway beside the beach .
On the glittering golden beach, familiar faces could be seen everywhere . Under the transformation of Future Group, Coro Island became Eastern Hawaii and the preferred tourist resort for Asian countries .

Of course, he deliberately took a detour not to look at women in bikinis, but rather, to look at the underwater expressway of the Victoria Construction Company .
In the middle of last month, after signing the contract, Victoria sent a construction team over . At the moment, several engineering vessels were parked at the southeastern end of Coro Island . They sunk the graphene pipes into the water and operated the machinery by underwater operators to complete the laying of the pipeline .
Watching the bustling sea region, he was filled with a pleasant joy .
By this time next year at the latest, the road connecting the nine islands would be open to traffic .
By then, the people of Xin would no longer have to travel by ship, and they would be able to travel across the island in just one vehicle . The previously depressed private car market could also recover with the completion of the subsea expressway . By then, it would be almost time to promote maglev vehicles .
At the office, he parked into the garage . When Jiang Chen walked through the doors of Future Building, the passing employees all looked at him like he was a rare guest .
They weren’t to be blamed for their reactions . After all, as the group’s president, Jiang Chen’s attendance had always been very spontaneous . Sometimes he was there every day one month, and sometimes, he would disappear for months .
The managers were already accustomed to this, but for employees, the whereabouts of the president could be described as mysterious .
With the expansion of the company, there were new faces at the building every day . Although it was only for a short period of one month, Jiang Chen felt like it was a brand new place when he stepped inside .

Coincidentally, when Jiang Chen entered the hall, there was just an elevator on the first floor . Seeing the arrival of the president, an employee quickly hit the door open button and waited until Jiang Chen entered .
Jiang Chen smiled and didn’t say anything . He pressed the button for the top floor of the building and closed the elevator door .
The elevator began to move upwards, and through the transparent walls, he was able to see the sandy beach of Coro Island .
Perhaps because of the gap in position, Jiang Chen felt that the atmosphere in the elevator was a bit weird because there were no sounds at all . Several employees standing near him didn’t even dare to breathe loudly . There were also several intern-looking employees who were peeking at him from time to time .
“Is there something dirty on my face?” Jiang Chen smiled and quipped at the female intern who had red permed hair .
She didn’t expect Jiang Chen to talk to her . The girl with the curls suddenly blushed and told the truth while stuttering .
“No, no, I’m just thinking the president is so young . ”
The employee next to her immediately felt secondhand embarrassment for the new intern . She had just been there for a few days, yet she said the wrong thing in front of the boss . How could she still continue to work there? Saying that the president looked young, in an alternative perspective – wasn’t that questioning the president’s abilities? She should’ve used the word “mature”!
However, contrary to their experience in the workplace, Jiang Chen didn’t show the slightest discontent at all . On the contrary, he laughed .

“You don’t have to think that; I’m very young to start with, so I have to count on you guys for the group’s work!”
She wasn’t blamed but was encouraged instead . The new employee’s face was flushed with excitement, taking the opportunity to agree .
“Yes!”
Jiang Chen smiled, indicating that she didn’t have to be so nervous .
Soon, the elevator door opened, and the employees walked out one after another . When the woman with the “curled hair” left the elevator, she blushed and bowed at Jiang Chen then quickly left .
Although it was only a small episode, news of the president being easy to get along with quickly spread throughout the company .
Jiang Chen was also pleased with the result .
If possible, he didn’t want to be a distant leader to the point where all who saw him felt they had to bow their heads . In contrast, he was more willing to be a leader loved by all employees, so that every person who saw him would say hello instead .
Before entering his office, Jiang Chen went to Xia Shiyu’s office .
When Xia Shiyu went into the office with a smile, she gave him a few extra glances .
“What’s the good news?”
“Nothing, I’m just in a good mood today . Do you have anything to report to me? So you don’t have to make a trip in a bit . ” Jiang Chen took a chair from the side and sat across from Xia Shiyu .
After seeing this scene, the female assistant who was holding some documents came in . After she laid down the documents, she consciously left the room . However, Xia Shiyu didn’t overthink it . She picked up the documents and glanced over them before pushing the pile aside .
“You came just in time . Future Heavy Industries once again signed a blockbuster deal . ” Then Xia Shiyu placed a document in front of Jiang Chen .
“Blockbuster deal?”
Jiang Chen picked up the document with great interest and looked at the title . Two keywords immediately caught his attention .
“Drone” and “Express” .
