Chapter 1333: Experts in Place!
Li Erhong is just a brash village woman.
She only heard a few things from Lan Fei about her time at the Ling Corporation, and then, hearing that Ling Feng hadn’t been seen, she came to stand up for her cousin!
Now hearing Ling Feng’s explanation, Li Erhong put her hands on her hips, "What kind of reason is that? I don’t believe you don’t like her anymore. Since everything is already arranged, why not rekindle the romance?"
Ling Feng: "...."
Everyone present understood the situation and felt that this woman was trying to force a relationship, completely unreasonable!
However, no one said anything; after all, this was Ling Feng’s personal business, and it wasn’t appropriate for others to interfere!
Ling Feng could only smile wryly and say, "Sister Li, don’t worry about it. There’s nothing possible between me and Lan Fei. I’m helping her purely because we were classmates. When it comes to matters of the heart, it’s best to let nature take its course!"
Seeing him embarrassed, Li Futian quickly said to Li Erhong, "What are you messing around for? Mr. Ling plans to invest in our village, and you’re causing trouble. Hurry up and go home!"
"I..."
Li Erhong was unconvinced and wanted to say more, but Li Futian’s eyes widened like an ox’s: "Go now, or I’ll cancel your family’s dividend this year!"
Li Erhong was scared into silence by that and didn’t dare to say anything more.
"Alright, alright, let’s stop watching Ling Feng’s show and take a walk along the lakeside!"
At this point, Ding Qingfeng smoothed over the situation and began walking ahead with his hands behind his back!
The crowd followed as if nothing had happened just now.
But Ling Feng was a bit unhappy, trailing at the back and quietly asking, "Jiaolan, is Lan Fei having any problems?"
"No, she’s doing quite well in the company. I even plan to promote her, and I’ve never seen her unhappy!" Mo Jiaolan said.
"Then what’s up with this fire Li Erhong is on about, as if Lan Fei told her something?" Ling Feng said, bewildered.
"Should I ask around for you?" Mo Jiaolan suggested.
Ling Feng quickly shook his head, "No, the more you ask, the more complicated it becomes. Let’s just pretend it never happened!"
Mo Jiaolan nodded and then pursed her lips, "Do you really have no feelings left for Lan Fei?"
"Really, don’t overthink it!" Ling Feng said with a helpless smile, patting her on the head.
Accompanied by a group of people, Ding Qingfeng conducted a survey, gathering information about the lake’s hydrology, staying for a full two hours before leaving.
After returning to the county seat, Ling Feng politely declined an invitation to dinner and hurried back to Nine Heavens.
With things settled, all that remained was to prepare the raw materials.
On the empty ground of the Third Layer, several large cutting machines stood, while Ling Yao and Long Xiaoyu transported countless logs from the Seventh Layer, and workers from the Chasing Dragon Clan incessantly processed them, producing large quantities of boards.
Ling Feng wasn’t idle either, using his Space Bracelet to start transporting!
A truckload of boards was transported to Xiao Chi Village, where, under the operation of a professional construction team, a sheet of milky-white floating objects gradually appeared on the lake’s surface.
As boards continued to be supplied, the floating area’s size kept expanding.
Initially, the villagers of Xiao Chi Village only watched out of curiosity, but later, emboldened, they began walking along the floating bridge.
Realizing it was safe, more and more people ventured onto it.
Since the boards were connected very firmly, walking on them was no different from walking on land. Eventually, the children of Xiao Chi Village started running around and playing on it.
The construction team, not stopping either, began working on some buildings as the area expanded!
Seeing the farmstead being steadily constructed, Ling Feng brought in Li Fei’er to inquire about the progress of the domestication.
It turned out that she had already set up a hundred pairs of snow rabbits and ospreys, fully domesticated with no wildness left, ready to be put into farming.
These were just the initial stock, and as they slowly reproduced, their numbers would soon reach the thousands.
Hearing this, Ling Feng smiled, "The efficiency of getting things done is getting faster!"
From the decision to start farming to everything being on track now, it had only taken two days!
During these two days, every night Ling Feng was with Ling Yao, and the two fully enjoyed the feeling of being newlyweds.
Having surpassed the most intimate level, their relationship grew even stronger!
One day, while Ling Feng was watching the lake surface project on the shore of Xiao Chi Village, his phone suddenly rang.
Seeing it was Gu Li’s number, he quickly answered, "Do you have any good news?"
"Boss, I found the expert you wanted!" Gu Li said with a chuckle.
Ling Feng knew it was this matter and quickly asked, "Great, where are they?"
"They’re almost in the county. Do you want to come and meet them?" Gu Li asked.
"Them?"
Ling Feng paused, then asked, "How many people did you find?"
"Well, there are quite a few. I found everyone in Ling Corporation who speaks foreign languages. We gathered four or five translators to make it work!" Gu Li laughed.
"..."
Ling Feng was at a loss for words, scratching his head as he asked, "Does designing a reconnaissance vehicle need so many people?"
"These are all experts, and I thought they’d be useful, so I took the initiative to bring them all in!" Gu Li said.
"Okay, you’ve done a good job. I’m heading to the county right now!"
Ling Feng hung up the phone and then drove his Mongoose vehicle away from Xiao Chi Village, heading to the county.
Once he reached the Ling Corporation building and arrived at the guest room on the third floor, he found that there were already more than ten people inside!
Besides Gu Li and the translators, there were eleven foreigners!
Some were quite old, appearing to be in their seventies or eighties, with full heads of white hair!
Others were fairly young, with messy hair, giving the impression of mad scientists.
Seeing these people, Ling Feng smiled and said, "This is great; now Ling Corporation seems like an international company!"
Hearing this, Mo Jiaolan couldn’t help but laugh as well, "Gu Li is quite something, finding so many experts in such a short time and convincing them to come and help. He’s impressive!"
"I bet he must have offered them generous compensation!"
Ling Feng nodded and then said, "But it doesn’t matter. When the mining vehicle is developed, no matter how much it costs, it will be worth it!"
Then, after being introduced by the translators, the foreign experts knew that Ling Feng was the initiator of this project and looked at him with respect.
Without beating around the bush, Ling Feng directly stated his design requirements.
The mining vehicle’s concept was already formed in his mind, but designing and assembling it required the help of these experts.
After listening, the oldest Russian expert said a few words.
The translator told Ling Feng: the requirement is very simple, it’s not like we’re really going to space, such a task is too easy for them!
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng chuckled bitterly, "Let’s practice with this first. When I have plans to explore space, it’ll still be timely to have them design rockets!"
