223: Chapter 224 Preparing to Harvest Foreigners

This was truly what he wanted!

Joining the system?

That would be so unfree.

What he wanted was exactly this kind of free benefit.

Having the state's protection and support, enjoying special privileges and conveniences, without having to be constrained by all those rules and regulations—he could continue living his carefree and happy life.

"Hehe, this is good!" Jiang Jing couldn't help but laugh, looking very satisfied.

"The leaders are truly thoughtful; they've protected my safety while also providing me with convenience. Perfect!"

Watching his unmasked "mercenary" appearance, the various bigwigs didn't feel repulsed at all; on the contrary, they all started to laugh.

They thought this young man was authentic, not hypocritical, spoke his mind, and was easy to deal with.

In reality, Jiang Jing just couldn't be bothered to pretend; he didn't need to use pretense to gain anything.

On the contrary, it was they who gained benefits from Jiang Jing, so Jiang Jing was completely fearless and acted as he pleased.

This was the confidence brought by his own strength.

Deputy Wang also laughed: "Alright, let's settle it this way. The screening and dispatch of personnel should be in place very soon."

The two old men from security and the military exchanged glances again, the "lecherous" smiles at the corners of their mouths almost failing to be hidden.

Candidates?

We guarantee that Comrade Jiang Jing will be "satisfied"!

Deputy Wang was in a good mood; he picked up his teacup and took a sip, then asked casually as if chatting about daily life: "Jiang Jing, this matter is basically settled. What are your personal plans next?"

"Are you going to continue staying in Magic City to play around, or are you heading back to Rong City?"

"Does Xingchen Technology have any new plans?"

He originally meant it as a casual expression of concern, but unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Jiang Jing's eyes immediately brightened a few degrees. He let out a chuckle, wearing an expression that said, "You've hit the nail on the head."

"Deputy Wang, you really asked the right question. As for plans, of course I have some!"

"And... I've recently had some new sparks of inspiration, and I'm just preparing to start working on something new!"

"Oh?" Deputy Wang put down his teacup, becoming interested.

The others in the conference room also cast curious gazes.

He had just brought out a heaven-defying invention capable of changing the country's material landscape, and now he already had new ideas?

This efficiency was too terrifying, right?

"What good ideas do you have now? Tell us about it and see if we old fogies can offer some advice?" Deputy Wang encouraged with a smile.

Although he didn't think Jiang Jing could immediately bring out another thing comparable to the Super Material, he was still full of anticipation for his "new inspiration."

After all, a genius's brain cannot be measured by ordinary logic.

Jiang Jing, however, kept them in suspense and smiled mysteriously: "As for what it specifically is... it's a secret for now! However..."

He changed the subject, his tone becoming slightly more serious, and a confident light flickered in his eyes: "I can reveal a little bit; if this thing is really created... it can benefit many people!"

"Especially for those with physical deficiencies, it might be a new hope."

"Benefit many people?"

"Physical deficiencies?"

"A new hope?"

Combining these keywords together made the hearts of the bigwigs present stir, and their eyes couldn't help but brighten again.

Although Jiang Jing spoke vaguely, no one dared to underestimate the "new thing" he mentioned.

Could it be... related to medical health or auxiliary equipment?

Everyone guessed in their hearts.

Elder Qin was so excited that he almost wanted to stand up again to ask for details, but was quietly held back by Elder Qian next to him.

Deputy Wang suppressed the curiosity and faint anticipation in his heart, maintaining a gentle smile:

"Alright, since you want to keep it a secret, we won't ask any more. Whatever support you need, just ask; the country is your most solid backing!"

"Hehe, with those words from you, I can rest easy. When I need support, I definitely won't be polite." Jiang Jing laughed.

Next, Jiang Jing naturally turned the topic back: "As for later, I'll still return to the hotel."

"The comrades from the security team can just come directly to the hotel to find me, and then I'll head straight back to Rong City."

Jiang Jing seemed to think of something again, a mischievous smile curling at the corner of his mouth as he said: "After a while, when the production of my beauty serum completely ramps up, I plan to focus on developing overseas markets."

"Especially... the USA!"

He paused deliberately, and seeing the eyes of the several military bigwigs instantly brighten, he continued: "Don't they always like to mess around by increasing taxes? This time, watch how I deal with them properly!"

"My beauty serum has unique effects. They want it? Sure, but they have to play by my rules!"

"As for the price... it must be several times, even ten times, higher than the domestic price! It also has to be limited-edition, and they must taste what it's like to want something they can't get, and have to look at our expressions!"

"Well said!"

"Haha! That is so damn much to my liking!"

"That's exactly how it should be done!"

These words of Jiang Jing, especially that last sentence, completely hit the mark for the several military and hardline bigwigs present!

Several of them couldn't help but clap in approval, and their gazes toward Jiang Jing were filled with even more admiration, feeling that this kid not only had ability but also had a personality that really suited them!

Because of his special status, Deputy Wang naturally couldn't appear too radical.

But the uncontrollable smile on his face and his attitude of not expressing any opposition at all already explained everything.

They were happy to see such market tactics.

After chatting for a while longer, seeing that the main matters had been settled, Jiang Jing took the initiative to stand up and take his leave.

It was still those two soldiers who escorted Jiang Jing away.

After the conference room door slowly closed, the atmosphere inside did not immediately cool down.

Elder Qin couldn't help but nudge Elder Qian beside him with his elbow, lowering his voice, his face full of excitement and anticipation: "Old Qian, do you think... the new thing that kid Jiang Jing mentioned just now might be another terrifying invention?"

Elder Qian adjusted his glasses; although there was a ripple of excitement in his heart, as a rigorous scientist, he remained relatively rational.

He smiled and shook his head: "Old Qin, you are being a bit greedy. It's only been a few days? And you're expecting him to come up with another invention of the same magnitude?"

"Do you really think he's a wishing well from a myth, where you get whatever you want? Scientific research requires time and accumulation. Even if he is a genius, it's impossible to have breakthroughs this frequently."

He paused, then added: "I estimate that what he mentioned might be some improvements based on existing technology, perhaps benefiting a specific group of people, which is already quite remarkable."

Hearing this, Elder Qin also felt it made sense and laughed sheepishly: "That's true, I was too impatient. It's just that this kid... always gives people the feeling that he can constantly create miracles."

Even though he said that, the little spark of anticipation in his heart just wouldn't go out.

His eyes rolled, and suddenly a thought occurred to him. He leaned closer to Elder Qian and said in a sneaky whisper: "Hey, Old Qian, since we're idle anyway, how about we make a bet?"

"Let's bet on whether the next thing that kid Jiang Jing brings out will be a small surprise or a big shock?"

"As for the stake... how about that rare annotated edition of 'Tiangong Kaiwu' in your study?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Qian immediately bristled with anger: "You rascal, Director Qin Weiguo, so you've been eyeing that set of books of mine all along!"

But his competitive spirit was also aroused. He thought for a moment and snorted: "Bet it is! I don't believe it!"

"But if you lose... that Tianhuang stone seal you treasure will have to be mine!"

"Deal!" Elder Qin extended his hand without hesitation.

"Slap!" Two old but strong hands clapped together in the air.
