Upon hearing their words, Lu Yuan's expression suddenly turned extremely pleased.

He quickly opened the door and led the two into his study.

"Tell me quickly, what's the solution?"

Han Wen pushed the notebook in his hand over.

Lu Yuan quickly opened his laptop.

Then they found some pictures taken from the military's database.

After carefully reading through the contents, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Joining with technical support from a partner? That shouldn't be too difficult, right?"

Han Wen and Xi Wen both shrugged.

"I don't know about that. You'll probably have to ask some bigwigs in the military, like General Ouyang or General Xu."

Lu Yuan nodded helplessly. It was another two people. He was now a little afraid to see Xu Zhenhao.

He was genuinely worried that his terrible acting in their house last time might have aroused their suspicion.

Although no news has been received from Xu Zhenhao in the past two days.

But he always felt that the other party might have already discovered something.

After pondering for a while, Lu Yuan decided to ask Xu Zhenhao first.

Even if the other party does find out, you can just pretend to be stupid and not admit it.

So Lu Yuan immediately gestured for the two of them to be quiet, then picked up the phone and dialed Xu Zhenhao's number.

The call was answered a few seconds later, and Xu Zhenhao's hearty laughter came from the other end.

"When I saw it was your number, I rushed over to answer it without even starting my meeting. Haha, you're not planning to challenge me to a drinking contest again, are you?"

Upon hearing the other party's hearty laughter, Lu Yuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I probably can't have a drink with you today, because I have something very important to tell you."

Hearing the change in Lu Yuan's tone, Xu Zhenhao on the other end stopped mentioning drinking and his voice became slightly more serious.

"Wait a minute, it's not convenient for us to talk right now. Can I call you back later?"

Lu Yuan readily agreed, and after a while, Xu Zhenhao called.

Lu Yuan pressed the answer button, and Xu Zhenhao's voice was full of seriousness.

Is there anything I can help you with?

"I've heard something. About the Third Fleet."

When Lu Yuan said these words, he was actually gambling.

However, Lu Yuan was only so confident because he was now a member of the military.

Therefore, when they learned about the Third Fleet, it couldn't be considered a particularly secret.

After all, there are so many people in the Third Fleet, he can probably understand what anyone says.

When Xu Zhenhao heard Lu Yuan ask about the Third Fleet, his expression changed drastically.

Where did you hear about this?

"Hehe, I am a businessman, so naturally I have many channels, such as some retired veterans or their families, etc."

Xu Zhenhao couldn't help but sigh.

"As someone who has received your help, I have a suggestion regarding this matter."

"Please speak."

"You'd better not get involved in this matter, because the details are very complicated."

The Third Fleet has never been a particularly good place, so once you're trapped, it's not easy to get out.

Hearing his words, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile.

"But there are huge profits to be made there, and I think there might be an opportunity to develop it."

Xu Zhenhao sighed deeply after hearing this.

"Alright, since you've already made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you any further."

However, it's probably not possible for you to join the Third Fleet or travel with it to the Mysterious Seas.

Lu Yuan was slightly puzzled.

Are there any restrictions or conditions?

"To be honest, if you want to join the Third Fleet, you first have to meet many conditions. Secondly, this operation is top secret, and even Commander Ouyang has no right to interfere. It belongs only to the Third Fleet."

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Is it only those from the Third Fleet who are allowed to participate in this operation?"

Xu Zhenhao hummed in agreement and then spoke in a low voice.

"I advise you to give up on the Third Fleet; they're a bunch of lunatics."

There's no benefit in being with them. There are plenty of other ways to make money; why rely on this channel?

Lu Yuan sighed and then casually made up an excuse to brush it off.

After hanging up the phone, the room fell silent again.

"It seems that the Third Fleet is really difficult to get in; we'll have to find another way."

Xiwen nodded slightly. "Yes, perhaps we should secretly send a warship to follow, but I think that method is definitely unreliable."

Lu Yuan was deep in thought, rubbing his chin, when there was a knock on the door.

Xiao Shan carried a tray with coffee and tea on it and brought it inside.

"Looks like you've run into trouble again."

Lu Yuan let out a long sigh and recounted what had just happened.

Xiao Shan sat down in front of Lu Yuan and gently placed her hand on the back of his hand.

"Don't worry too much, there will definitely be a solution. Maybe we're thinking in the wrong direction. Let's think about it from other angles. Anyway, there's still more than a month until September, there's always a way."

Lu Yuan knew that Xiao Shan was just trying to comfort him, but he could only nod.

Because he didn't have any better solutions.

After sitting idly for a while, Lu Yuan got up and saw Han Wen and Xi Wen off, then sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought again.

Xiao Shan felt that she couldn't let Lu Yuan continue to be so depressed; she had to find a way to distract him.

Otherwise, if you spend all your time thinking about this, you probably won't come up with any good ideas at all.

Perhaps going out for a walk would help him clear his head.

"By the way, Zhao Kangming lost that island last time, and we haven't chosen one yet. Shouldn't we deal with that this time?"

Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then remembered that there was a bet that had not been fulfilled.

Zhao Kangming didn't bring it up at all, and Lu Yuan had almost forgotten about it.

"Hey, I almost forgot. By the way, can we still contact Zhao Kangming? Is he planning to flee?"

Xiao Shan smiled gently and took out a piece of paper from her pocket.

"It seems your secretary wrote these two things down in your memo, but you didn't seem to notice. I even copied them down and put them by your bedside, but you didn't look at them either."

Lu Yuan slapped his forehead and said somewhat apologetically.

"I'm sorry, I've been really too busy. Well, I'll go take a look then, it'll be a good way to relax."

He knew, of course, that Xiaoshan was deliberately trying to distract him.

Actually, Lu Yuan didn't have any better ideas at the moment, so this was the only thing he could do.
