I Carry a Game World With Me
Chapter 251 - 232: A Much Sought-After Infrastructure ContractChapter 251: Chapter 232: A Much Sought-After Infrastructure Contract
「Dragon Country.」
In Tianzhou City, a social media post from Chen Hao had brought Yang Ming, Yang Lin, Ah Pao, and many of their brothers together.
They were all on their phones, liking and commenting.
"That Chen Hao is showing off again." Ah Pao grumbled, phone in hand as he scrolled through his feed. "He’s just guarding a few violent criminals and hackers. He’s acting like he caught them himself. No, I have to video call him."
Yang Ming and Yang Lin exchanged wry smiles, hearing the envy in Ah Pao’s voice.
After all, it was confirmed that Chen Bo had really become a bureau chief in the Xuanfeng Alliance, and Chen Hao was the warden.
The news online was still buzzing about Dominic and his crew of violent criminals being captured in the Xuanfeng Alliance.
And who would’ve thought that those very people were being guarded by one of their own? If they wanted to see those infamous criminals and hackers, all they had to do was video call Chen Hao.
As the video call connected, the other brothers eagerly gathered around.
These men were now filled with pride, honored to be working for President Lu.
They were all certain that the Xuanfeng Alliance had to be connected to President Lu.
Following such a badass figure was an opportunity others could only dream of.
...
Back in Youcheng, many people also saw Chen Hao’s social media post.
After all, Chen Hao was from Youcheng and had added quite a few friends there.
With his post, combined with all the news online about Dominic and his crew, it was hard for it not to cause a sensation.
Anyone who saw the post couldn’t help but show it off.
For instance, one of Chen Hao’s old middle school classmates was with friends when they saw the news about Dominic and Xuanfeng Bank. He immediately pulled up his social media feed and boasted, "This criminal is now locked up in my classmate’s prison, being guarded by him."
Even though he and Chen Hao hadn’t spoken in over a decade, people will do anything for a moment of showing off that can elicit gasps and attention from those around them.
This made Chen Hao’s name ring throughout Youcheng.
But those in the know easily connected this to another name: Lu Feng.
After all, Chen Hao used to be a street punk who followed Chen Bo, and Chen Bo worked for that very same Lu Feng.
Moreover, this group had been making waves in Tianzhou City and had already recruited several hundred people from Youcheng.
’Now Chen Hao is actually the warden for the Xuanfeng Alliance... This group seems even more formidable than anyone imagined.’
...
Internationally, the sudden network system problems at Rui Shi Bank had already caused a huge stir.
「Mexico.」
In an armed village, an angry curse rang out. "What the hell? The money won’t transfer into Rui Shi Bank?"
It was no wonder he was furious. People in his line of work lived with their lives on the line. He, the seller, was relatively safe, but his buyers could be arrested and executed the moment they returned home.
Therefore, he had a rule for anyone doing business with him: payment first.
He, too, naturally kept all his money in Rui Shi Bank. For people like them, Rui Shi Bank was the safest.
But who would have thought that suddenly, money couldn’t be deposited into Rui Shi Bank?
’What kind of bullshit is this?’
The man across from him smiled and suggested, "How about this? We can open an account with Xuanfeng Bank, and I’ll just transfer the money there. Everyone’s saying Xuanfeng Bank is even more secure than Rui Shi Bank now."
"Let’s do it!"
...
「Dragon Country.」
Inside a luxurious villa.
A businessman fawningly said to a middle-aged man, "Mr. Hu, this project was a success entirely thanks to the official inside information you provided. Shall I transfer your cut to your Rui Shi Bank account?"
"Mm," Mr. Hu nodded.
But the next moment, the businessman frowned. "Huh, the transfer to Rui Shi Bank isn’t going through."
Mr. Hu frowned, immediately pulled out a laptop to try for himself, and discovered the same problem. Moreover, he found he couldn’t even operate the bank’s interface.
’What’s going on?’
He quickly went online to check the news and saw people saying that Rui Shi Bank had suffered a hacker attack, causing issues with its network system.
"Isn’t Rui Shi Bank’s network system supposed to be the most secure?" Mr. Hu was getting annoyed. All the money he’d skimmed over the years was in Rui Shi Bank. How could this be happening now?
He could only say with a frown, "Don’t transfer that money to Rui Shi Bank for now. I’ll go register an account with Xuanfeng Bank. Transfer it there later."
Scenes like this were playing out all over the world.
The impact of Rui Shi Bank being hacked was immense.
Richards had no choice but to invite computer experts and hackers from all over the world to help.
Unfortunately, the moment these hackers and experts tried to intervene, their computers would go to a blue screen. They weren’t even in the same league.
After this happened to several consecutive waves of people, word spread through the hacker and computer science communities. Almost everyone guessed that the God of Hackers from the Xuanfeng Alliance was responsible.
Moreover, this God of Hackers was terrifyingly powerful. For a time, no hacker or computer expert dared to get involved.
If they ended up on this God of Hackers’ radar, their careers would be over. What if every time they tried to work, he appeared and blue-screened their computer? They’d have no tears left to cry.
This left Rui Shi Bank completely helpless, as they were unable to solve the problem themselves.
Richards and the rest of Rui Shi Bank were on the verge of tears. Their only option was to call the police, specifically seeking help from Interpol.
However, this move completely shattered Rui Shi Bank’s credibility, causing more and more clients to flock to Xuanfeng Bank.
’After all,’ they thought, ’we have so much questionable money stored in your bank, and you’re calling Interpol to investigate? What if they get their hands on our information? We’d be screwed.’
Once these people abandoned Rui Shi Bank, it set off a chain reaction, and even those with legitimate businesses were affected.
Calling Interpol was a disastrous move, but Richards was truly out of options.
Unfortunately, after the Interpol agents arrived, they too failed to find any leads or evidence.
Without leads or evidence, they couldn’t determine who was responsible, let alone take action.
This drove Richards and Rui Shi Bank to complete despair. They were filled with regret; if they hadn’t targeted Xuanfeng Bank, their rival probably wouldn’t have retaliated like this.
...
At Xuanfeng Bank, as more and more funds poured in, a joyful expression was permanently fixed on Baguda’s face.
’The Governor is truly incredible,’ he thought. ’He actually managed to build up Xuanfeng Bank. Its international reputation is now better than Rui Shi Bank’s.’
’Rui Shi Bank is probably crying its eyes out right now. The hacker the Governor found is truly amazing.’
Just then, his secretary walked in and reported, "Mr. Baguda, those countries have responded. They are willing to establish flight routes with us, but they require that we have an airport that meets regulations. Otherwise, the number of flights will be restricted."
"Understood. This will depend on His Excellency the Governor," Baguda nodded.
He had applied for international flight routes with other countries before. After all, visitors had to first fly into international airports in countries like Ba Country or Myanmar, then drive the rest of the way to their territory.
Therefore, he had always wanted to apply for direct flights from other nations, but his previous applications had all been rejected.
He never expected that the countries he applied to now would all agree, with the only condition being that they needed a regulation-compliant international airport.
He knew this was all thanks to Xuanfeng Bank.
If it weren’t for the growing number of people depositing their funds into Xuanfeng Bank, those countries would not have agreed so easily.
Baguda immediately gathered a stack of documents from his desk, left his office, and headed for His Excellency the Governor’s estate.
The Governor had mentioned he had connections in Dragon Country and could bring in construction teams from there to help the Xuanfeng Alliance.
The stack of files in his hand contained infrastructure information and contracts for the Xuanfeng Alliance, including road construction and the expansion of Wind Capital (the new name for Liping City). Of course, an airport and stations also needed to be built.
This was also what His Excellency the Governor had requested: to take these contracts to Dragon Country and seek partners.
Upon arriving at the Governor’s estate, Baguda saw Commander Red Lizard. "Commander Red Lizard, where is His Excellency the Governor?"
Commander Red Lizard smiled and said, "Mr. Baguda, His Excellency the Governor is resting in his room. We may have to wait a bit."
"Yes, of course." Baguda nodded and began to wait with Commander Red Lizard.
...
「The Game World.」
Lu Feng followed Lin Jiao, Wang Cheng, and the others to a mountaintop, from where they looked down at a basin in the distance.
Lin Jiao said, "Boss, this basin is the newly discovered patch of arable land. We’ll be able to plant seeds here in a few days. That Li Kai from the Li Family came to inspect it, but he told us to underreport the area to his family by twenty percent."
"Greedy, aren’t they?" Lu Feng said with a small smile.
’We’ll just have to see if he can actually take the crops away once they’re mature,’ he thought. ’As long as it’s in the East Suburb, it doesn’t belong to him.’
Lu Feng then asked, "Lin Jiao, have you obtained the information on neutralizing acidic substances in the soil?"
Lin Jiao nodded. "I have. It’s not exactly a secret. Plus, every material has substitutes, they just have different levels of effectiveness."
"Give me the data later," Lu Feng instructed.
The reason the City East Alliance couldn’t continue to amend the soil here was because they simply ran out of materials.
But he was different. He could buy materials in the real world and bring them into the game. This way, he could neutralize even more soil in the East Suburb.
As long as there was enough arable land, he could harvest enough food. Then, no matter how many more people joined, he would no longer need to transport food from the real world.
After observing the basin, Lu Feng returned to the East Suburb Fortress with Lin Jiao and the others.
After getting the list of materials needed to neutralize the acidic soil, Lu Feng logged out of the game.
Back in reality, he searched online for each of the materials. Many of them existed in the real world, and even for those that didn’t, there was always at least one substitute that did.
He consolidated the information and created a list.
Afterward, he left his room and went to the main hall of the estate, where he saw Commander Red Lizard and Baguda.
Commander Red Lizard was always at his estate, often standing guard when he had free time, so seeing him here wasn’t strange.
Baguda was clearly here on business. As it happened, Lu Feng had something for him too. He handed Baguda the list he’d made and ordered, "Do everything in your power to procure the materials on this list. Store them in the same warehouse where we picked up the Gold."
Then, he turned to Commander Red Lizard. "Red Lizard, when Baguda puts the items in the warehouse, I want you to take your men and guard the location. Don’t let anyone get near it."
Commander Red Lizard and Baguda both nodded in unison.
Baguda then handed the documents he had brought to Lu Feng. "His Excellency the Governor, here are the infrastructure contracts you asked for!"
"Mm!" Lu Feng took the contracts and glanced through them.
The Xuanfeng Alliance, which encompassed places like Dalat Town, was actually very underdeveloped. Even its capital city didn’t have a proper station.
A place like this would have great difficulty developing on its own, especially in terms of infrastructure. That was why he needed to return to Dragon Country to find construction resources.
Naturally, he had to take this infrastructure contract back with him.
The contract was worth over 30 billion USD.
In domestic currency, that was 200 billion.
Of course, the 30-plus billion USD wouldn’t be paid all at once. Even after the construction was complete, the payments would be made in installments over time.
After all, this was the standard practice in his home country.
And with Xuanfeng Bank and Qingfeng Network Company as guarantors, the moment this infrastructure contract was presented, the construction companies back home would be fighting over it like crazy.
Lu Feng then summoned Black Snake and told him to prepare for a trip back to Dragon Country.
