Chapter 59: Car and House
at dusk.
Yang Ming drove the ultra-luxurious limited edition hover car given by the second prince, listening to the second prince's favorite music, and drove swaggeringly on the busy city main road.
This hover car is really nice.
The monster-like shape, extremely exaggerated performance, and especially the license plate representing the royal status, made the hover cars on the road stay away from it, for fear that the monster would suddenly go crazy.
Yang Ming can now be sure.
Although more risks and new uncontrollable factors are added.
But he took a big step forward towards his great goal of becoming a 'captain of the ball'!
The second prince is a really good person.
The factory can give it away if it wants, and the limited edition hover car can be lost if it wants.
As for whether the Second Prince has become autistic due to the blow, that has nothing to do with Yang Ming directly. After all, Yang Ming has been very restrained this afternoon.
"Boss," Lu showed her slim figure at the center console, "The Second Prince has not yet given up his vigilance against you, so you can't let your guard down."
"He can't trust me, or he can never trust anyone."
Yang Ming squinted and smiled:
"We were not wrong. The Second Prince was indeed forbearing and not taking action, rather than lying down and doing nothing.
“He kept telling us that he wanted to get some real estate in the New Federation through us. But in fact, when he said these words, there was always a smile in his eyes… He was testing us, and we were also testing him.
"He wants to take advantage of the power behind me, and I want to take advantage of his power."
Lu hummed a few times: "There is nothing behind us."
"Lv," Yang Ming said with a smile, "You are behind me."
"Me?" Lu wondered, "What can I do? I'm just a cute and well-behaved assistant whose salary is always deducted by my boss."
"Lü, do you know? Whether it's the Second Prince or Guton Maha, why do they always treat me as an agent of the New Federation?"
Yang Ming smiled and said:
"Because of my control over intelligence. This ability makes them think of agents from superpowers first. Only these agents can master such secrets.
"And you have achieved this, which is almost the same as the results achieved by the secret service."
Lu curled his lips in disdain: "It's obviously because their confidential network is too rubbish. Only the military core network is of some standard... By the way, boss, please come back soon. We have prepared a little surprise for you."
"Are you sure it's a surprise and not a shock?"
"Of course," Lu said softly, "I guarantee it with Uncle Hatton's character."
Yang Ming's expression suddenly became a little strange: "He was a complete villain before he became a good man."
…
It was a surprise indeed.
When Yang Ming drove the off-road hovercraft he won from the second prince back to the busy and solemn factory, he immediately spotted the new villa standing in the corner and the crowd of onlookers around it.
My goodness, instead of working hard on the production line to create profits for him, these employees gather here to point fingers!
Even though it's after get off work now...oh, that's okay.
Yang Ming honked the horn twice, parked the "monster" hover car casually on the side of the road, opened the door and jumped out, looking at the brand new villa in front.
It was installed in half a day, which is really efficient.
A group of employees immediately discovered the new target, surrounded Yang Ming, and took a few photos of the hovercraft.
"Boss, where did you get this? So cool!"
"As I remember it was... this car seemed to be a limited edition. We at Luofeng only have three of these super monsters. It's said that they can go straight into space!"
"Boss, did you buy it? In full or with a loan?"
"This license plate... I checked it out. This is not the one collected by His Royal Highness the Second Prince..."
Yang Ming clicked his tongue and said, "Second Prince, lend it to me for a few days. Don't upload it to the Internet if you don't have to. Be careful that the Luofeng Security Department will come looking for you."
There was complete silence all around.
Yang Ming put his hands in his trouser pockets, calmly left the circle of employees, and walked towards the two-story villa in front.
Was this villa really just assembled here? It looks pretty solid.
How was the foundation laid? How were the walls fixed? What magnitude of earthquake can it withstand? Forget about the ion cannon. What energy level of laser can it block?
"Haha! Yang Ming! Come and see!"
Kolev appeared at the door, and the old man greeted him excitedly:
"We are planning to have a party, and several of my friends will be coming! Buying a house actually comes with free furniture, and the decoration materials used here are all of the highest environmental grade! This is so affordable!"
Yang Ming frowned and went into the house.
The first floor has the living room, dining room, kitchen and bathroom, and the second floor has three bedrooms and a cozy study. The overall layout is relatively simple.
The only highlight is probably the spiral staircase in the center, which gives the overall decoration a texture of a spaceship cabin.
——This may be the original intention of Kolev to choose this house.
Yang Ming stamped his feet, and the ground gave a very good response, very much like a solid concrete floor, without any of the thin and brittle feeling of a "board house".
Kolev knew Yang Ming.
The old man smiled softly and said:
"The foundation was laid by the construction party. Before the ground quickly solidified, more than 100 six-meter-long composite nails were hammered into the ground. These long nails are connected to the main structure of the entire house. You can fully believe in its solidity."
Yang Ming walked to the wall and started knocking on it, then gestured with his hands next to the door frame.
The load-bearing walls are no more than ten centimeters thick.
"No matter how great the material is, isn't this thickness too shoddy?" Yang Ming complained dissatisfiedly.
Kolev leaned against the wall and smiled bitterly. "Hey, my dear nephew, you are a young man, why are you more conservative than an old man like me? You have to believe in the power of science and technology. The manufacturer's advertisement is that if you can make a crack in their load-bearing wall without the help of any tools, they will compensate you three times the original price..."
Snapped!
Yang Ming casually pinched off a piece of wall covered with metal particles and placed it in the palm of Kolev's hand.
"Triple compensation . Do you want me to record a video? The quality of this house is pretty good."
Kolev took a sharp breath.
…
Although Yang Ming denied it, when he returned to the bedroom that truly belonged to him, walked around the bathroom and desk twice, and rolled over on the soft big bed, he felt much happier.
It’s nice to have a temporary home.
No wonder Kolev fell in love with the manor in the Kas Federation.
As a result, Yang Ming even developed a slight fondness for Yilanduoxing.
Yang Ming took off all his clothes and lay down on the bed. He slept comfortably for two hours before being woken up by his stomach.
He opened the closet and looked at the neatly arranged clothes inside. He thought of the housekeeping robot he found cleaning the living room before going upstairs.
"Lü, did you clean it up?"
"Of course," Lu's voice sounded beside him. The projection equipment specially placed in the corner of the room burst into light, and Lu's life-size image appeared next to Yang Ming.
Apart from her body being a little pale, there is no obvious difference between her and the real person.
Lu pushed his glasses with his middle finger: "As the boss's assistant, it is also my job to take care of the boss's diet and daily life. Boss, while you are sleeping , there are a few video messages that need you to deal with. I have prepared nutritious porridge for you."
Several envelopes popped up in front of Yang Ming.
Yang Ming was shocked when he clicked it.
The second prince stood on the court, sweating and panting, holding a professional stick hockey club in his hand and standing on a hoverboard, as if pointing at Yang Ming's nose.
"Come back tomorrow if you have the guts! Yang Ming! I must avenge my previous humiliation! Win back my beloved monster!"
Yang Ming curled his lips and opened the second video.
The second prince collapsed to the ground, and sighed:
"How did you do it? You're a novice, but your batting average is so high. But your physical strength is your weakness, Yang Ming, I will definitely defeat you!"
This damn competitive spirit.
The third video.
"Hahaha! I've figured out a way to deal with you! We'll fight again tomorrow!"
The fourth video.
"Oh my god, I sprained my waist. It looks like I won't be able to play tomorrow. I'll message you when I recover. You'd better be available all the time, future Grand Duke of the Empire."
…
Is that not enough?
Yang Ming rubbed his forehead. From the four short video messages, he felt the Second Prince's subtle mentality from striving to giving up.
"The Second Prince's waist is really twisted?"
"It's true," Lu sneered, "Boss, you are really too unkind. You are now a ship-destroying individual, and the second prince is just an avid fitness enthusiast."
Yang Ming flicked the video away, thought for a moment, and said slowly, "Please help me draft a text message that appears to be caring but is actually sarcastic."
Lu wondered, "Shouldn't we flatter him as much as possible? We need something from him."
"Think about it, Lu, what has the prince heard the most since he was a child? I'm afraid it's compliments."
Yang Ming smiled and said:
"The content of the message is written like this... Oh, respected Second Prince, you should pay attention to the age of your bones. Next time, I will try my best to lose to you. Add a smiley face symbol."
"Okay boss, sent."
A few minutes later, Yang Ming, who was wearing a loose robe and drinking porridge in the restaurant on the first floor, received an angry video message from the second prince. The prince threatened that after he recovered from his injuries, he would have a real man showdown with Yang Ming.
Yang Ming did not reply to the other party.
Let's keep him company for a while and see how he reacts.
Kolev went to the factory to get busy again. This old man really couldn't sit still and was very professional.
As for the triple compensation, it is not known whether Kolev really did it. Based on Yang Ming's understanding of Kolev, this old guy will not let go of such a windfall, and the manufacturer will definitely refuse to admit it.
Yang Ming put his watch aside and started reading the news about Yilando Star.
Soon he found himself making the headlines.
To be precise, it was because the second prince's "monster" was driven on the street by a strange man, which aroused heated discussion among the citizens.
Yang Ming just glanced at it and didn't look at it any further.
He was deliberately showing off in public.
At this stage, as long as you get close to the royal family, you must choose a prince to support. Whether you join the camp of the eldest prince or the camp of the third prince, you will be caught in the vortex of fighting for the throne.
It is said that the old emperor has only a few years left to live.
Yang Ming got close to the Second Prince, who seemed to pose no threat, and became their close friend, which would not attract the attention of other royal family members too early.
Of course, Yang Ming lied to the second prince.
He didn't intend to use Falling Wind as a springboard to leap into the Sherman Empire.
He just wanted to use the second prince as a springboard to become the emperor of the Luofeng Empire and directly gain power and status from the emperor.
'These intrigues are really troublesome.'
After slurping the last mouthful of meat porridge, Yang Ming hummed a tune as he walked to the fully automatic sink and gently placed the dishes and chopsticks into it, fearing that a little force would break the tableware at home.
I can finally take a break tonight.
The factory was settled, and the commercial line was successfully launched; the second prince took the initiative to come to the door, and the royal line also began to move forward.
After being busy for a few days, Yang Ming really wanted to lie down comfortably on the sofa, find a movie with many beautiful women, and relax.
Just do it.
Yang Ming found some snacks, ordered some drinks, turned on the brand new stereo projector in the living room, spent two federal coins worth of Luofeng coins, and ordered a movie that looked pretty good.
Stereoscopic projection, immersive experience.
Yang Ming soon enjoyed it, and the desserts and drinks brought by the housekeeping robot made him hum comfortably.
Lu's figure appeared in the restaurant nearby. He became about 30 centimeters tall, sitting at the table, swinging his legs, monitoring the entire Luofeng Empire's network.
The night outside the window is as hazy as water. The spacious factory area is lit by only two rows of street lamps. Occasionally, you can see the employees living in the factory taking a walk under the lights, but I don’t know if there will be any romantic scenes.
"This is a lousy movie. The beauty of the heroine is totally wasted."
Yang Ming grumbled in dissatisfaction, but still watched with great interest.
Lu was giggling and was just about to join the boss in complaining a few words and digging up the boring and decadent love history of this heroine, when her facial expression suddenly changed a little.
"boss!"
"Hmm?" Yang Ming stretched lazily, "If there is nothing special tonight, we won't do anything."
"I think I've spotted a suspicious person," Lu muttered quietly, as the projection screen in front of him quickly displayed a vast amount of information.
"Suspicious? Why is it suspicious?"
"This should be a high-level agent who just infiltrated the Luofeng Empire a few days ago," Lu suddenly said, "I'm trying to crack the encrypted letter they just received. I've cracked it. Uh, boss, we're in trouble."
"What trouble?" Yang Ming immediately became alert.
"The other party," Lu said with a soft sigh, "is from the New Federation."
