After a long while, the man quietly made a phone call: "Hello, Young Master Tang Zhiyang, that Ye Feng has returned! He appears dispirited and devoid of will to live for some reason!"
"He's returned? And looks dispirited and devoid of will to live? Hahaha, he must have been crushed by the strange dangers of Rocky Island! Good! Very good! Hahaha! Keep observing his movements and report to me promptly. I'll transfer the benefits to your account later!" Tang Zhiyang said happily on the other end of the phone.
"Thank you, Young Master Tang!"
After hanging up, Tang Zhiyang immediately rushed to a nearby office and said to another middle-aged man, "Dad, Ye Feng has already visited the waters of Rocky Island! It's said that he returned looking dispirited and devoid of will to live! He must have been struck by the strange dangers of Rocky Island!"
Upon hearing this, the Tang family head immediately laughed, "Hahaha! I knew it, the situation in the waters of Rocky Island is simply not something someone like him can handle!"
However, neither of them knew that Ye Feng's condition was not due to the strangeness of Rocky Island's waters at all.
The reason he looked dispirited and devoid of will to live was that he had been seasick and vomiting all morning, which had led to his current state.
"That's right! Dad is still the most insightful!" Tang Zhiyang said, flattering him.
The Tang family head also looked quite pleased and said, "Learn from this! By the way, since that fellow already knows the dangers of Rocky Island, he'll probably try to sell it off in the next few days! I'll contact him then to buy Rocky Island!"
"Also, tomorrow morning, you go to Dongchuan City and register a Tang's Mining Company. Once we acquire the waters of Rocky Island, we can proceed with that plan..."
Tang Zhiyang immediately nodded, "Understood, Dad! This mission will definitely be completed!"
In the blink of an eye, Ye Feng returned home. Upon arriving, he immediately called Xiao Feifei.
"Hello, Feifei! I've already visited the waters of Rocky Island, and I'm planning to..."
Just as Ye Feng was about to say that he planned to ask Xiao Feifei for help finding some construction companies to build residences, breeding equipment, and so on on Rocky Island, Xiao Feifei interrupted him before he could finish.
She said in a tone that suggested she knew everything, "You're planning to sell the waters of Rocky Island, right! How much are you planning to sell it for? Also, the Tang family suddenly doesn't want the waters of Crescent Island they bought and are selling it at a low price. Do you want this young lady to help you snap it up immediately!"
Hearing this, Ye Feng was stunned and didn't react for a long time, asking confusedly, "Uh, Feifei, what are you talking about? Why would I auction off the waters of Rocky Island?"
"En? You went to see it, didn't you? You're not auctioning it?" Xiao Feifei asked doubtfully.
Ye Feng nodded, "I did go to see it, but the waters of Rocky Island are so good, the area is vast, the geographical environment is excellent! And the resources are very rich! Why would I auction it?"
Now it was Xiao Feifei's turn to be confused. After a while, she reacted and said, "Wait, you're saying you personally landed on Rocky Island and saw it?"
Ye Feng nodded, "Yes! And I even slept there for a night with the accompanying fleet! The conditions there are all very good, except for the distance, it's better than Crescent Island in all aspects!"
Xiao Feifei was shocked to hear this and exclaimed, "This, how is this possible? Didn't they say the waters of Rocky Island have whirlpools, hidden currents, rocky reefs, and strong winds and huge waves? How did you get there?"
After Xiao Feifei learned that Ye Feng had acquired the waters of Rocky Island, she had wanted to persuade him to sell it. However, Ye Feng had not seen those dangers with his own eyes, so he would definitely not be willing to sell.
But she guessed that Ye Feng would definitely sell it after seeing it, so she had already found other waters for Ye Feng.
Once Ye Feng decided to sell the waters of Rocky Island, she would help him acquire other waters, which was why she had said what she did earlier.
However, what she didn't expect was that Ye Feng actually said he had successfully landed on Rocky Island, which caught her off guard.
"There aren't that many dangers. In fact, the waters of Rocky Island just have many rocky reefs. The other things like whirlpools and giant waves are just illusions like a mirage!" Ye Feng explained.
But Xiao Feifei clearly didn't believe him and suspected, "This, how is this possible! You're not lying to me, are you!"
"Why would I lie to you! If you don't believe me, I'll send you photos!" Saying this, Ye Feng sent Xiao Feifei all sorts of videos and pictures he had taken on Rocky Island.
In addition, Ye Feng specifically obtained the landing footage on Rocky Island from Captain Zhou's ship and sent it to Xiao Feifei.
Although Xiao Feifei had never seen the real Rocky Island, she had seen some information and pictures, and the pictures and videos Ye Feng sent her were real.
"This, how is this possible? Could it be that you were just lucky and didn't encounter those dangers!" Xiao Feifei still said doubtfully.
"There really aren't that many dangers! It's just people spreading rumors and demonizing the waters of Rocky Island!" Ye Feng said speechlessly.
Although there were indeed dangers before, they were all in the past. Now, those dangers no longer existed.
"Alright! By the way, what were you going to say earlier?" Xiao Feifei finally asked.
Ye Feng quickly replied, "I'm planning to find some construction companies to build residences on the island! Can you help me see if there are any!"
"Oh, oh, okay, that's not a problem! By the way, building these will cost quite a lot of money! Do you have enough money? Do you want me to support you a bit!" Xiao Feifei asked with concern.
Ye Feng smiled upon hearing this, "Thanks, I think I have enough money!"
"Enough? Are you sure? Setting up a company, recruiting people, building residences on the island, building fish farming facilities, buying fish fry... all of this will probably cost tens of millions, if not forty or fifty million!" Xiao Feifei reminded him.
Ye Feng was startled, "Holy cow, it costs that much?"
"Nonsense, just transporting materials to Rocky Island will probably cost a lot, let alone everything else! Honestly, do you have enough? If not, I'll support you a bit!" Xiao Feifei said speechlessly.
However, Ye Feng still shook his head, "Not for now. According to your estimate, it's just enough!"
Ye Feng's original eighty million was spent on acquiring Rocky Island for fifty million, leaving him with thirty million.
The bronze artifacts he obtained from subduing the giant octopus in the sea sold for over fifteen million, bringing his total to over forty-five million, which was just enough.
"Alright! If you have any problems, contact me anytime!" Xiao Feifei said.
Ye Feng nodded and hung up the phone.
Ye Feng was too tired today and rested at home, going to bed early in the evening.
The next day, Ye Feng drove his Raptor pickup truck towards the city to register his company.
As he was halfway there, Yang Zixin called him.
"Doctor Ye, did you forget? You're supposed to examine my grandfather's health today!" Yang Zixin said with a pout on the other end of the phone, clearly a little displeased.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng immediately slapped his forehead and said, "Damn! I completely forgot about this..."
