Seeing that I was speaking seriously, Angela put down her cutlery, stood up, and replied, "Yes, Teacher Zheng."

Many people around looked over, and quite a few men's eyes lit up.

“Sit down, sit down!” Selena pulled Angela to sit down. “We don’t follow those rules. Also, from now on, just call Zheng Yang President Zheng.”

"oh!"

I was speechless. Did this girl really have to take it so seriously?

At this moment, Lu Qianning also arrived, and Selena introduced her to Angela.

Angela simply nodded, and then said to me:

"Zheng Yang! The first batch of employees' family members have arrived, and 80% of them will open shops and do business here."

But most of the countries that came to buy deep-sea samples have already left. What do you plan to do?

This won't do.

"What if I brought all kinds of minerals and creatures from the seabed and opened a museum?"

We've already made the money; now I want ordinary people to see the value here.

"Huh? You're going down again?"

I had no choice; to attract people, I had to offer something that would interest them.

"Not only do I need deep-sea creatures, but I also need deep-sea minerals, as well as detailed information on all the samples."

How's the development in the north going?

"The hot spring center is almost finished, and there's also a seaside amusement park. Now only the high-end villas are still under construction."

"That's good. There's something to do and something to watch. I don't believe no one will come."

"We can also build a forest park in the western district. I saw many animals there. We can also bring in a batch from Daxia and find someone to feed them."

That's a good idea: "Then you can handle this as you see fit."

Selena: "Also, I want to build another high-tech shopping mall, such as 4G mobile phones, computers, small drones and the like. It's such a waste that your technology isn't being developed for civilian use."

I want to create a high-end electronics mall, where you can buy these great products only.

Nangong Xi: "Hmm! I think this is good. With the addition of robots to Factory Two, many jobs no longer require the staff of Factory Two, and they can do these jobs perfectly."

"Okay! In short, there's one goal: I need people to come here so that employees' families can make money doing business here."

After lunch, I took the submersible to the dock.

However, before I could even get into the water, several people blocked my way.

"Is this Island Master Zheng?"

An old man with a big beard and a black top hat, who looked quite like Sieg.

"Who are you?"

“My name is Sevin! I am a chosen one of the gods.”

Sevin looked at the deep-sea submersible in the water and said, "Is this the equipment that Island Master Zheng uses for diving?"

It seems they are still keeping the name of the Black Heaven Kingdom a secret.

"Just say what you want to say. I don't have time to waste on you right now."

"Why are you in such a hurry, Lord Zheng? Actually, I'm here to deliver money to you."

"Explain it more clearly."

“We want to redeem our people, fifty million patacas per person.”

I knew they would come sooner or later.

Every day that Higg and his people stay with me, the prestige of the Black Heaven Kingdom or the Chosen Ones diminishes.

"You did so many despicable things to me, fifty million per person?"

"So, what does Lord Zheng mean?"

"A flat price of two billion. That includes compensation for those individuals and for me."

"OK!"

That's too little.

"However, Mr. Zheng has to agree to another deal."

"What transaction?"

"Take us into the water once, and I'll give you 500 million."

Want to go down and find the treasure?

"Are you guys really not afraid of death?! Did you see the trench sucking in water?"

It's in the video I posted.

"If Mr. Zheng can come up safely, I believe you can bring us up as well."

They trust me that much? I don't even trust myself when I'm with them.

Even if they offered me more money, I still couldn't help but strangle them.

"I'm not bringing it!"

“Lord Zheng! If you don’t agree to this, then we won’t pay to ransom you.”

I laughed: "Sevin! Do you think I'm in a hurry for you to take your people away? Let me tell you the truth, I haven't had enough fun yet!"

I plan to have them appear on Da Xia's live streaming platform, wear skirts, and dance to earn their living expenses.

"you!"

I raised my hand to interrupt him: "I'm in a hurry to get things done. If our island government doesn't have two billion in its accounts today, it will be twenty-five tomorrow, and thirty the day after. You can take your time to think it over."

I jumped onto the submersible and stood outside, letting it carry me.

They were behind them, gritting their teeth.

When we arrived at the designated waters, I took off my clothes and threw them into the cabin of the submersible, then jumped into the water wearing my diving suit.

The bags I brought this time are large, mainly to hold more ore.

The larger marine creatures below are shown in photos, but I only catch the small ones; I grab whatever is interesting or unusual.

Moreover, I only catch two or three of each kind.

At the same time, I also need to pay attention to the movement on the seabed. If it encounters water absorption, I will use the method of igniting seawater molecules to leave.

On this trip, I didn't encounter any trenches sucking water in, but I always felt like there was a pair of eyes watching me.

Using force fields to search, they couldn't sense anyone at all.

Before leaving, I glanced at the wrecked ship one last time.

If we bring something from here, wouldn't those people from the Black Heaven Kingdom be eager to buy it?

I walked up to the wrecked ship and smiled as I stared at the mermaid statue on the bow.

This thing is great, it's big enough, as tall as me.

Moreover, since they know the treasure is in the shipwreck, they must recognize this mermaid, so they're not worried about not buying it.

With that in mind, I removed the statue and then ascended up in the submersible.
