C223 Don't Put the Eggs in a Basket
Taking advantage of the fact that no one on the boat noticed him, Li Yun secretly extended his right hand and placed it on the bottom of the oil tanker. With a thought, he kept the entire oil tanker back into the Storage Ring's finger.
Since they had already reached the depths of the South Pacific Ocean, Li Yun had the mindset of a thief who didn't leave empty-handed as he dived into the sea to search for seafood that was unique to the South Pacific Ocean.
The body size of the Australian Emperor Crab was the largest of the crabs, known as "Giant Crab". The body weight of each crab was more than 8 Jin, while the body weight of the other crabs ranged from 10 Jin to 15 Jin.
Right now, Li Yun had discovered a group of Australian Emperor Crabs 100 meters under the sea. Due to the lack of human cover, the living environment of the sea creatures was very good and the growth was also very huge.
This group of Emperor crabs were all as big as a pot lid. As they waved their large claws, their domineering aura leaked out, and most of the small fish didn't even dare to come close. Li Yunfei quickly stored the five hundred Emperor crabs into his storage ring.
Then, he went back to Darwin Pier, and climbed onto his own boat while completely drenched. Seeing Xiang and her maidservants on the boat, Li Yun asked, "Did that James man send it to the police station?"
"Yes, he has already left." Xiang immediately replied.
Li Yun retrieved a set of clothes from his storage ring, walked into the cabin, and changed his clothes. Afterwards, he left Xiang and the rest on the boat, walking towards the Donner Auction Exchange alone.
In the recent months, the Donna Auction House had been bustling with business. The auction hall was filled with guests all day long, and there were many precious gems and jade stones. Every day, they would sell one or two of their finest items, creating miracles in the price of jewelry.
When Li Yun arrived at the entrance of the auction house, all he saw were expensive cars. It was the time for lunch break. The cafeteria and coffee shop on the first floor were filled with people. Everyone held a gem book in their hands and passionately discussed the gems in the book, especially the two gems that were going to be auctioned off in the afternoon.
The moment Li Yun walked into the lobby of the second floor, the receptionist on duty immediately recognized him. She immediately ran to the elevator door and opened it.
Li Yun smiled as he nodded towards her, "What's your name?"
"Tang Xin." The girl's face reddened as she looked down at her toes.
Li Yun smiled and said, "Thank you." He walked straight into the elevator.
Joanna was on her computer in her office, searching the list of oil refineries that were on the verge of bankruptcy. Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door and casually said, "Come in."
She heard the sound of the door opening and closing, but she couldn't hear the man speak for a long time. Joanna curiously raised her head. Suddenly, Li Yun's handsome face entered her eyes.
Joanna excitedly jumped up and threw herself into Li Yun's embrace. A month's worth of longing had all turned into endless love and warmth.
After a long while, Joanna left Li Yun's embrace, her face slightly red. She complained, "You said you would come and pick me up in a few days, but why did it become a month's time?"
Li Yun apologetically explained in a soft voice, "I always felt that the three islands in the center of the lake weren't strong enough, so I hoped for a few more subordinates to break through to the Xuan Immortal Realm. That's why I've been concocting immortal pills every day for the past month."
"So that's how it is, I thought you were just focusing on your own cultivation and had already forgotten about me. You must know that cultivation has no time, and women tend to age easily. I'm worried that one day when you wake up from your closed-door cultivation, I've already become an old woman." As Joanna spoke, tears fell from her eyes.
Li Yun hastily picked up a tissue from the table and gently wiped away the tears on Joanna's face. He said solemnly, "In my eyes, breaking through in cultivation is never as important as you. How can I leave such a beautiful wife like you on Earth to cultivate alone?"
Li Yun's sweet words made Joanna break down in tears. "Let me tell you two good things. The first thing is Uncle Frank's research on the miniaturization of Laser Gun. He has already produced four models."
When Li Yun heard this, he was overjoyed, "This is good news indeed. Right now, I am looking forward to the second piece of good news."
Joanna proudly sat back on her desk chair, mouse in her right hand as she operated it on her computer. "I've been thinking about one thing these past two days: 2000 jeeps consume a lot of fuel every day. How can I guarantee your continuous supply of gasoline? It's a matter of urgency."
Li Yun walked behind Joanna, bent down, and kissed her on the cheek. "This is called having a connection with one's heart. You really do think of me."
"So, during this period of time, I've been online searching and comparing the oil refineries that are about to go bankrupt. Now, I've chosen two companies, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. The next thing to do is for you to make the decision." Joanna purposely bought herself some suspense.
"Oh, then let me take a look." Li Yun's gaze immediately fell on Joanna's computer.
"You're not allowed to look. I want you to hug me, and then let me introduce it to you personally." Joanna exclaimed and immediately stood up. She pushed Li Yun onto the sofa and sat on his lap. She even twisted her body.
In all honesty, Li Yun was very familiar with Qiao Na, but if one were to act coquettishly, she would still be very attractive. Therefore, Li Yun took the opportunity to hug Joanna's waist. "Alright, alright, I'll listen to you."
Joanna closed her eyes and enjoyed the warmth of Li Yun's big hands for a while. Then she said, "One of these two oil refineries is from Australia. Due to the shrinking number of customers, they are on the verge of collapse. We can buy them."
Li Yun looked at Joanna with encouraging eyes and nodded at him, "Please continue."
"The advantage is that this company refines the gasoline. We can install it in close proximity. The disadvantage is that we need to spend a lot of time to transport the crude oil over from the Middle East. As a result, the transportation cost is relatively high."
Li Yun nodded, "Then what about the other company?"
"The other company is located in Kuwait, in the Middle East. The advantage of that is that we can acquire crude oil near there, and we need to personally go get the refined gasoline, but if it's just the two of us, then we can treat it as vacation and travel, and then use the Storage Ring's finger to transport the gasoline, the transportation cost will be greatly reduced." Joanna said seriously.
Li Yun thought for a while and slowly said, "Let's choose this refinery in the Middle East. The Old Ancestor will teach us not to put the eggs in the same basket."
