Where is Xia Yu?
Xia Yule had some free time, so he went to the Hive Base alone to inspect the progress of various scientific research projects.
Previously, he was commanding remotely from home, but now that he is here, he can control the details. The processing center on the third floor of the base has already processed the main components of the Cybertron interstellar floating dock, which are transported to the underwater dock by robots for assembly, waiting for Xia Yu to complete the final assembly.
"Swish~~"
After storing these huge components into the storage space, Xia Yu also passed through the wormhole and arrived on the Cybertron side.
The construction of the second Demon City is progressing well. The robot construction team is piling up reinforced concrete like building blocks, allowing this Earth-style city to be recreated on Cybertron bit by bit.
I am the master of my own planet, and I don’t need to worry about wasting the people’s money. In a society without humans, much knowledge of economics is useless.
Standing on the top of the second Oriental Pearl Tower, Xia Yu, overlooking the entire city, jumped down.
"Woo~~"
With a strange sound, a TIE fighter equipped with two hexagonal solar panels and powered by dual ion engines appeared out of thin air, carrying Xia Yu and roaring away, heading straight for the sky.
This was what Xia Yu won in a lottery some time ago. It is his smallest interstellar transportation tool. It can travel freely between the surface of the planet and space, and is more convenient to use than the Iron Blood Hunting Ship.
However, unlike in the movies, this thing only hums when there is an atmosphere. When flying in space, it is no different from other spaceships.
After reaching Cybertron's synchronous orbit, Xia Yu waved his hand out of the porthole, and all the components in the space were released. The robots waiting on the side controlled the robotic arms on the spacecraft to assemble the components. His interstellar floating dock was finally completed after an hour.
This is what it should look like. Ships in the sea should be docked at the pier, and spacecraft in space should be moored at the dock.
If possible, Xia Yu will build an interstellar dock in the future to build star destroyers in space, the kind that can destroy a small ball with one shot.
The Age of Exploration spread civilization, but it is undeniable that its essence was barbaric expansion. If humans want to embark on interstellar voyages in the future, powerful military force is indispensable. Nuclear bombs and the like seem a bit outdated.
Xia Yu gave orders, asking the robots to drive the spaceship to dock on both sides of the dock in turn, while he drove the TIE fighter to land on Cybertron and returned to the Earth side.
It was just in time for dinner, and the four people, who had a good relationship with the in-laws and daughters-in-law, almost forgot about Xia Yu, and only now realized that he had appeared again.
"You appear and disappear all the time. You might not be able to disappear on the island for us tomorrow, New Year's Eve."
Ms. Lin instructed her son at the dinner table.
This has happened before. Xia Yu has been missing for several days in a row. Now that both of his wives are on the island, he can no longer do whatever he wants.
"I know, Mom. I'm not going anywhere tomorrow."
Xia Yu agreed without much thought. New Year's Eve is a day for family reunion, so he would spend time with his wife, parents and others.
After dinner, they returned to the room. It was a bit awkward. Lin Shuqin and Lao Xia also knew what their son had done. Everything was premeditated. It was really embarrassing.
"Then I'm going to sleep first, Senior. Good night, Sister Suya."
Jiang Baiying yawned and went back to her room. Because the time on Kana Island was four hours ahead of the time in China, she didn't get enough sleep last night.
Yin Suya was also very sleepy, but Xia Yu was not. He followed her into the room shamelessly.
There was no conversation that night, and Jiang Baiying completely recovered. Yin Suya, with dark circles under her eyes, looked at Xia Yu hatefully, blaming this guy.
In addition to having a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, there is also a custom left in my hometown to worship ancestors. It is not necessary to go to the ancestral grave to burn incense and offer tributes. You can cook a table of delicious food at home, serve wine, rice, kneel down to worship and then burn some paper money and gold ingots at the door of the house, and the whole ceremony is complete.
In the past, there were only Xia Yu, his parents and three others present, but today there were two more daughters-in-law who had not yet joined the family, so the ceremony was a bit grand.
After they officially get married and give birth to the third generation of the Xia family, the ceremony of ancestor worship will be even more lively, and the spirits of the ancestors in heaven will be more pleased.
After the ceremony, Xia Yu volunteered to take his senior and Xiao Jiang to the garden in front of the main fort to burn paper money.
In addition to the large-denomination banknotes of Tiandi Bank, there are also well-printed US dollar ghost money. Considering that he had burned a Lamborghini for his grandparents before, Xia Yu specially prepared the full range of Bugatti models this time to enrich their garage on that side.
"Grandpa and grandma, your grandson is very useful. He has a big business both at home and abroad. He happens to own a car factory, so I thought of giving you a few rare and good cars. Don't keep them in the garage and be reluctant to drive them. Take my grandma out for a walk more often."
Xia Yu prayed while burning the Bugatti, and the flames of the Bugatti soared high.
He does not believe in gods or Buddhas, but ancestor worship is something that is in the bones of the Chinese people. It cannot be erased or disappear, but will only be passed down from generation to generation.
As for the carbon dioxide emitted by burning paper money, Xia Yu, who launched the atmospheric processor, will make up for it by billions and trillions of times, and solve the entire China's share at the same time.
What is this? This is the responsibility of a super rich man. Xia Yu feels that he is becoming more and more like a real super rich man.
The last flame went out and the three of them returned to the main castle restaurant. Their ancestors had enjoyed a sumptuous lunch after traveling across the ocean, and now it was the turn of their family of five.
After lunch, it was just dawn in China and several people contacted relatives and friends again, wishing each other a happy new year in advance.
Speaking of staying up all night on Kana Island, the Spring Festival Gala in China starts at 12 o'clock?
It’s better not to stay up late. The most important thing for a family is to be together. Xia Yu gave annual leave to all the Chinese maids on the island, and the foreign maids took turns to take Christmas and New Year’s Day off. It’s better for them to spend the Spring Festival with the master’s family!
Night quickly fell on the island. After dinner, the five people gathered on the viewing platform on the roof of the main castle to enjoy the night view of the island.
The old year ends with the sound of firecrackers, and fireworks shows are a must-see during the New Year celebrations on the island. This year will be no exception, and compared to previous years' fireworks shows, this year's scale will be much larger.
The Invincible-class ship, the Polaris, and two escort boats are all ready, as well as the jungle on the island, where Xia Yu has prepared a surprise.
Time passed quickly as we chatted, and soon it was 11:58. In just over a minute, it was the new year again.
The five people started the countdown tacitly. Although Yin Suya and Jiang Baiying had never seen it, they had heard Xia Yu talk about it, so they were naturally looking forward to it.
"Buzz~~"
The hour hand, minute hand, and second hand all returned to zero, and Xia Yu's family's fireworks show officially began.
Amid the roar, five seven-barreled salute cannons intertwined their fire lines, quadruple-mounted fireworks illuminated the night sky, and then two collectible Katyushas in the jungle played the organ.
It is said that the east wind blows thousands of flowers into bloom at night and blows down stars like rain.
