Chapter 818: The Passionate Madam Toxic Charcoal

Zhao Licheng’s report was mainly about Jiadian Industrial Park.

In the past half a month, the cooperation between more than 10 raw materials suppliers had been settled, so all the materials were in full swing. Now, the only limiting factor for Su Yang’s development was how he could store and transfer these materials legally.

Hence, after Su Yang and Zhao Licheng had a discussion not long ago, the construction of the industrial park was put on the agenda.

Jiadian Industrial Park was the most important resource that Zhao Licheng had obtained from the leaders of Shanghai.

It was located in the middle of Shanghai’s Baoshan District. It was a piece of land that spanned over 600 acres. Coupled with 200 acres of residential land, it was enough to make all the companies in the country envious.

Previously, Su Yang had already planned to make use of this piece of land to develop it. However, waves and waves of matters happened one after another, so he did not have time to make a move.

Now, with two thirds of “Legend Of Wu Zetian” broadcasted, and its viewership ratings stabilised, the payment through the Staircase Program had reached its peak. Hence, there would be no more issues there.

Furthermore, the matter with the Wangs was basically settled. The higher-ups had already issued an order to deal with this case seriously, so even if Old Man Wang could save Wang Jiang, he couldn’t protect Wang Jiang’s position.

On top of that, the Central Asian base had encountered a sudden attack and could not continue to be developed.

Hence, Su Yang had nothing to do and could only turn his gaze to the industrial park.

After all, just like Zhao Licheng had analyzed, Central Asia was just too small. Even if the Clown Sea Serpent could unite the entire Central Asia, they would still be lacking in resources compared to their own country. In that case, they might as well focus on developing the domestic market.

Therefore, in Su Yang’s plan, this industrial park became the most important thing.

He planned to develop this industrial park area into the most important base for Jiadian Group in the country. The plan for the entire industrial park area would be based on the few existing branches of Jiadian Group and the industries that they were going to enter in the future. The most important and core area would be Jiadian’s glass phone production factory.

In order to facilitate the production of Jiadian Mobile’s glass phone and to facilitate future inspections and probes, Su Yang had decided to [Descent] the entire glass phone factory to the real world.

The first step to using [Descent] in the real world was to build a foundation for the entire industrial park area, and in the process of construction, they would take advantage of the situation to build the factory.

This way, even if others investigated, they would only think that this factory was built alongside when the base was first built.

After Su Yang settled the Wangs, he got Little Deeny and Zhao Licheng to come up with a plan for the garden area and immediately began executing the plans.

After more than 10 days of construction, the industrial park had taken shape. There were three-meter tall walls surrounding the entire Jiadian Industrial Park. The roads were paved, and the area was gradually divided. Everything was on track.

The entire Jiadian Industrial Park project was estimated to cost about 500 million yuan. Su Yang did not pay for it himself. Instead, he used the Baoshan District to fight for the interest-free loan.

Other than the 500 million yuan interest-free loan, the Baoshan District had promised to give Su Yang a low-interest loan of 2 billion yuan.

That was why Su Yang realized that it was so easy for a large company to develop after the company had expanded. As long as one was recognized by the country or became an outstanding company, many people would send money to them…

After the wall was built and the area was divided, Su Yang could finally start to [Half Descent] the glass phone factory.

After deciding to use [Half Descent] on the second night, Su Yang contacted Janet, who could change the weather and asked about his progress.

At the time, Janet was still in the Pacific Ocean.

In fact, the Pacific Ocean was too big, so even for a shark monster like Janet, it was too difficult for him to travel across the entire Pacific Ocean. Not to mention, he had to gather his race along the way.

So, developing the shark clan was obviously a long-term job.

After receiving Su Yang’s question, Janet did not hesitate and said that he would find a suitable place to stop by in one day. Then, he would return to the virtual space through his glass phone.

After hearing Janet’s reply, Su Yang was relieved. ‘There shouldn’t be any problems with descending the glass phone factory tomorrow.’

After he calmed down, Su Yang rubbed his temples and felt a little tired. Then, he rested for a while and picked up the book beside him. He was prepared to continue working on the special effects server for “Wandering Planet”…

After reading for two to three minutes, Su Yang heard a crisp “Poof” sound and he knew that Little Deeny had come to his side.

As expected, a pair of warm hands reached out to Su Yang’s temple and gently massaged it.

Su Yang closed his eyes comfortably and leaned his head against Little Deeny’s indescribable part. Then, he said softly, “Thank you, Little Deeny.”

Little Deeny’s pleasant voice rang in Su Yang’s ears. “Master, you’ve been under too much pressure these few days. You must rest well.”

Su Yang closed her eyes and shook her head. “It’s not time to rest yet.”

As the housekeeper of the family, Little Deeny knew Su Yang’s every move very well. She knew that the reason why Su Yang worked so hard was because of the Clown Sea Serpent’s injury.

In fact, his sudden injury had given Su Yang a lot of pressure. Ever since that day, Little Deeny had never seen Su Yang smile. Instead, he would always have a gloomy expression all day as if someone owed him tens of billions of yuan.

Even Little Hus, who was always up to mischief, did not dare to provoke Su Yang. It was afraid that it would get itself into trouble.

Little Deeny hugged Su Yang gently from behind. Then, she crossed her arms in front of Su Yang’s chest and rested her head on his.

Sensing Little Deeny’s heartbeat and her soft body, Su Yang knew that Little Deeny wanted to reassure him by hugging him. Hence, he patted Little Deeny’s hand gently and said, “I’m really fine. Don’t worry.”

Su Yang closed his eyes and changed the topic. “Right, you guys have been experiencing human life recently. How is it going?”

Previously, Su Yang had asked the little monsters to disguise themselves as humans because they did not have a good impression of humans and did not share the same thought process as him. That was why he had asked them to disguise themselves as humans and experience life in batches.

Upon hearing Su Yang’s question, Little Deeny replied softly, “You’ve been in a bad mood recently, so no one dared to provoke you. That’s why they have been going out so enthusiastically. The little monsters have been mesmerized by the beautiful world outside, and they’re so happy that they’ve forgotten about their home here.

“Little Hus asked me for money and went to a painting class. He wanted to learn how to paint and try to paint a nice portrait for Janet.

Su Yang recalled the weird painting that Little Hus had drawn earlier and could not help but smile.

Little Deeny said, “Fei Fei went to work as a short-term warehouse manager and is now looking after the warehouse everyday.

“It’s just—

“That warehouse is a vegetable warehouse. After I heard about it, I always felt like the boss was inviting a thief into his house.”

Su Yang was speechless.

Fei Fei was that huge, disobedient bunny that always bullied Su Yang.

‘Letting a rabbit as tall as a bear to look after vegetables… No matter how you think about it, it feels like letting a squirrel look after a bucketful of nuts…’

Little Deeny then said, “Satantan went to volunteer at the Red Crescent Association. He’s pulled people to donate blood on the streets every day.”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘That’s his profession though.’

“Qing Zhu is a little more special. She’s staying in the botanical garden everyday and helps take care of the plants secretly.

“It’s rare to see someone like her doing good deeds in secret.”

At the end of her speech, Little Deeny could not help but smile. He clearly found Qing Zhu very cute.

Su Yang laughed as well.

‘Indeed, Qing Zhu is the most knowledgeable about life.’

Su Yang talked about all the little monsters that had gone out to experience life. He turned around and looked at Little Deeny, who was right in front of him. “What about you?”

Perhaps because they were so close to each other, their breaths seemed to be connected, causing Little Deeny’s face to turn red.

She tilted her head slightly and said, “Me? I… Opened an internet cafe. Occasionally, I would be at the front desk and collect money. Usually, I would be on the second floor of the internet cafe.”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘Woah, did she turn from a “virtual internet” to a “physical internet”?

‘A phone spirit that could connect to the internet itself had actually started to use a computer to go online…

‘Why does hers feel even stranger than the previous little monsters?’

Perhaps Little Deeny could tell what Su Yang was thinking, so she changed the topic. “By the way, Master, do you know the results of our research?”

“The results are out?” Su Yang was clueless.

“What is it?”

Little Deeny said, “It seems that two types of plants have already completed a series of experiments and we’ve figured out their functions, abilities, and habits. Madam Toxic Charcoal, Martha, sent someone to inform us yesterday that she hopes you could take a look personally when you have time.”

Because he was chatting with Little Deeny, Su Yang could not read anymore. Hence, when he heard what Little Deeny said, he nodded and said, “What are we waiting for? Let’s go take a look now.”

Su Yang then called Spirit Building, Sanque, Gru, and Little Deeny to the research facility in the virtual space.

The research facility in the virtual space was not a building that came with the virtual space. Instead, Su Yang had brought the two floors above the Jiadian headquarters in real life.

This makes many of its settings different from normal places. In fact… Even the way inside was different.

That was why Su Yang did not walk into the weird-looking, yet modern, two-storey building.

He led the little monsters to a door placed in the middle of the clearing and opened it.

As he opened the door, what appeared inside the door was not the empty space which should be behind the door, but a silver floor with a modern feel to it.

Gru looked at the door curiously, then went around the door and looked again from behind.

In the end, it realized that this door was also opened from the back. Through the door, Su Yang, Little Deeny, Sanque, and Spirit Building could be seen. In other words, it looked like a door frame was placed on the empty ground.

Gru then returned to the front and looked inside the door, only to find that it was still the roof filled with modern technology.

When Su Yang saw how curious it was, he smiled and patted its head as he explained, “This is a portal. I used [Half Descent] to combine it with a door on the roof of the research facility.

“These two spaces are connected, and we can travel through them.

“However, because it’s a one-sided door, opening it from the front will lead you to the research center.

“After it’s opened, it will still look normal from the back.”

Gru nodded its head as if it understood, and then it let out two “Gru” sounds.

When they walked in, there were a few little monsters that Su Yang had revived in the [Burning Reincarnation Circus] guarding the door. When they saw Su Yang, they bowed slightly. “Boss.”

Su Yang nodded and led the monsters into the research center.

Soon after Su Yang arrived at the research facility, Martha arrived.

As the little monster who was resurrected by Su Yang and the most powerful and experienced person in the research facility, Martha became the director of the research facility.

Hence, when she heard that Su Yang had arrived, she stopped her research and hurried over.

According to human age, Martha was now more than 60 years old. Coupled with the esophageal cancer she suffered in her later years, by the time the Clown Sea Serpent found her, she was already as thin as a stick who was lying in bed with less and less breaths remaining.

Now, after she had been revived by the circus, she had regained the body she had when she was in her twenties. Furthermore, it was a monster’s body that far surpassed that of normal humans. This filled her with gratitude and surprise.

After all, rejuvenation and immortality had always been humanity’s eternal dream.

With Su Yang’s help, she was saved when she was about to reach the end of her life. Hence, she was extremely passionate towards Su Yang.

When she arrived before Su Yang, Martha looked at him with a fervent gaze. She took the initiative to walk up to him, knelt down, and kissed the tip of Su Yang’s feet. Then, she prostrated on the ground and said, “My great Lord, your believer, Martha, pays her respects here.”

Su Yang was shocked by Martha’s noble etiquette. However, when he thought about the fanaticism in Central Asia, the excellent brainwashing ability of the Clown Sea Serpent, and the fact that he had given Martha a new life when she was on her deathbed, it seemed… Understandable.

After all, if the person who could save her and bring her back to life when she was about to die was not to be called the “Lord”, who could be then?

However, even though Martha was extremely passionate and respectful towards him, Su Yang still had some respect for Madam Toxic Charcoal, a famous scientist in the world. Hence, he helped Martha up and patted her shoulder.

Martha was taken aback by Su Yang’s intimate actions. She raised her head and looked at Su Yang with fervent eyes. Other than her lofty belief, there was also an urge to sacrifice herself for him.

Su Yang saw through Martha’s thoughts and was speechless.

He now had a certain understanding of the brainwashing ability of certain religions.

‘She’s already a world-renowned great scientist. Imagine if she was just an ordinary believer, she might just go crazy for me…’

Following that, under Martha’s lead, Su Yang walked into the research center from the top floor.

Before the incident with the Clown Sea Serpent, through his powers in Central Asia, Martha had looted all the experimental equipment and materials. In fact, she had even gotten some things that were supposed to be illegal.

Coupled with Su Yang’s [Unknown Sticky Note], the researchers were able to create the equipment when they needed it. Therefore, the research center was quite powerful.

This was also the reason why Martha and the rest were able to progress so quickly in researching the mutated plants in the virtual space.

Arriving at Lab 1, Martha showed Su Yang the first result of their recent research.

Lab 1 was a large nature laboratory with an area of more than 200 square meters and a height of five to six meters. It was completely isolated by glass.

In the laboratory, the main research subject was a silvery-white coconut tree that was eight meters long…
