After setting off by car, Le Wu first arrived at the North City Tunnel. Seeing that the workers had already started eating, Le Wu took out three large bags of meat buns from her spatial storage to give everyone an extra meal.
Everyone was very happy and kept saying, "Thank you."
Feng Xuanlang walked over with a bowl and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
Le Wu nodded, glanced at the tunnel, and found that it was filled with a lot of things, including solar panels, generators, cameras, guardrails, and many bedding blankets.
Feng Xuanlang said, "The materials are too expensive, so we all decided to sleep here tonight. Let me update you on the progress. The tunnel's moisture-proof coating has been completely applied."
"The area next to the tunnel is where solar panels are to be laid. We started late yesterday and only leveled a small section of the hillside. So today we will send a group of people to help the workers who are installing the solar panels to finish the job as soon as possible."
"Another group of people is responsible for installing the fence and cameras, while the rest are waiting for the modular houses to arrive so they can start building."
Le Wu was still quite shocked. The tunnel was completely painted in just one day. The speed of these thirty or forty workers was truly impressive.
Furthermore, Yue Wu was very satisfied with Feng Xuanlang's arrangements; everything was progressing quickly, which made Yue Wu feel extremely at ease.
"Do we need to buy some electrical wire, cement, or something today?"
Thinking about all the things she had to do today, Yue Wu felt she should give Feng Xuanlang some money to stop him from constantly trying to get her to go with him to pay for things.
Feng Xuanlang: "Yes, the solar panels and cameras are installed. We can test whether they can work properly. Once the modular houses arrive, we can start construction immediately."
“Then I’ll transfer you 200,000 yuan. Use it first. If it’s not enough, just let me know. Also, please connect the villa complex to water and electricity.”
Yue Wu immediately took out her phone and eagerly sent it to Feng Xuanlang.
Hearing the phone notification sound, Feng Xuanlang actually guessed another reason why Yue Wu gave him money, but he just smiled and ultimately did not expose her little scheme.
The music and dance were of no help to the rest, so they simply left.
Along the way, Yuewu chatted with Xiaoyi from time to time, asking it if it had sensed any meteorite fragments.
Xiao Yi carefully sensed that the meteorite was constantly moving.
Every time the music and dance were about to catch up, the meteorite fragments would leave.
Le Wu had been chasing for almost an hour. Xiao Yi said apologetically, "Mom, Xiao Yi is too weak. I can't lock on directly yet. I can only sense the range. I'm sorry, Mom."
Oh my god, that pitiful little voice made Le Wu's whole body melt. How could she possibly be angry with him?
She immediately spoke up: "How can you blame yourself? We came here to find them. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know the way, let alone find them. So, Xiao Yi, let's cheer each other on!"
"Okay, keep it up."
At that moment, a tricycle passed by the music and dance hall and drove away in the opposite direction.
Xiao Yi suddenly cried out, "Mommy, I sensed a very strong energy, just like the car that just passed by!"
Yuewu immediately turned the steering wheel and began to accelerate to catch up with the tricycle in front.
The tricycles turned onto narrow roads, which were not easy for Yuewu's driving skills. She managed to follow them until they stopped in front of a tiled house.
The elderly man driving the tricycle took a can off the vehicle, turned around, and went into the house.
Le Wu arrived at the tricycle, got off, and checked the tricycle for meteorite fragments.
Xiao Yi said definitively that there was no meteorite, so the meteorite that was just sensed is most likely in the jar that was taken in or on the old man.
Without hesitation, Yuewu stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Then the old man's voice rang out, "Who is it?"
Then the curtain was lifted and the old man came out.
At first glance, Yuewu thought the old man looked fierce.
Because there is a very obvious scar from his cheekbone to his ear, and his ear is missing due to the severity of the injury.
The old man watched the music and dance without speaking, then asked, "Who are you? What brings you here?"
Yuewu quickly explained her purpose, saying that she was very interested in the old man's jar and wanted to pay for it.
The old man looked suspicious. This jar could be bought anywhere, so why would someone specifically come to him to buy it? The person must have ulterior motives.
The old man didn't mince words and said directly, "What exactly do you want? Don't try to fool me."
Suddenly, a sharp aura emanated from the old man. Yuewu knew she couldn't fool him, so she revealed her true purpose: "I'm looking for a stone; it's very important to me."
How did you know the stone was with me?
“I can feel it, I’m not lying to you, I found it just by feeling.”
The old man turned and went inside, bringing out a stone for Yuewu to identify. "Is this it?"
The meteorite, about the size of an egg, was dark but had a clearly cratered surface. The small points of light emanating from it, along with Xiao Yi's voice prompt, all told Le Wu that this was the meteorite she was looking for.
Yuewu nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, that's it!"
"I can't give it to you. This stone isn't mine. I'll have to return it to Aunt Xu later."
"this......"
"You can come with me to see Aunt Xu, and ask her then." The old man turned and went back into the house.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, Yuewu saw the old man come out of the house, carrying a bag of rice in his hand.
They walked in silence, following him to Aunt Xu's house.
Aunt Xu was sitting in a recliner, fanning herself, when she heard footsteps and asked, "Is that Jianguo? Is your mother's cough any better?"
"You've recovered greatly after taking the medicine you prescribed, Aunt Xu. I've brought the stone for you, and I've cleaned off the medicine residue on it. Also, my mother asked me to bring you some rice, which is right next to me."
