42: Chapter 42 Water is more expensive than oil

But... why is it different from what they read in the books?

"Instructor Wang..."

Suddenly, someone seemed to notice something and cautiously tugged on Instructor Wang's clothes.

"What is it?" Instructor Wang waved his hand impatiently.

The student who had just spoken showed an expression of shock.

He pointed a finger in one direction.

"According to what you said, does that mean the happier the Prince is towards someone, the more he actually dislikes that person?"

"That's certainly true... but... things aren't absolute."

Instructor Wang had just been reprimanded by the Prince, so how could he deny himself? Therefore, he could only deny others.

However, he couldn't completely shut them down, making these people mistakenly believe he was teaching nonsense.

Thus, he left himself an out.

At this moment, as that person pointed towards the Prince of Dubai, the rest of the people looked in the direction his finger indicated.

Good heavens...

The Prince of Dubai was currently chatting animatedly with Lin Heng.

And it was one-sided!

The Prince of Dubai was holding Lin Heng's hand, his face showing a pleading expression, the look in his eyes even more astonishing than a marriage proposal.

Goodness...

"Instructor Wang, what did that Prince of Dubai say? Why is he so agitated?"

Someone quickly asked out of curiosity.

Instructor Wang stared at the Prince of Dubai and Lin Heng with a look of shock.

Holy crap...

They dare to discuss this out in the open??

Do they really think the security of our Dragon Country is just for show!

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Su Xueer had also arrived at her spot.

As soon as she arrived, the audience in the live stream noticed this scene.

They immediately started making memes.

"Damn, what is this situation?"

"Does anyone know what happened? Is this Prince proposing to Lin Heng? That looks too intense, right?"

"I want to read a romance novel, write about the national husband Lin Heng, who possesses talent and martial skill, and his love-hate entanglement with a foreign prince!"

"I didn't expect they actually had this kind of relationship; amazing!"

"..."

However, there were still some clear-headed viewers who quickly corrected the thread.

"There's no translator here, so let's say what they are actually talking about. Those upstairs are mostly talking nonsense, don't be misled!"

"Exactly, don't just follow the trend!"

The audience in the live stream was extremely curious about the conversation between the two, wanting to know what Lin Heng and the Prince were discussing.

Some specialized analysts had already started analyzing and had reached a conclusion.

"It seems the Prince of Dubai wants to buy something from Lin Heng to defend against the army of the Pretty Country, who is trying to extend their greedy claws toward them. They say that with Lin Heng's ability, he must be able to get his hands on it."

"What!?"

The live stream was shocked!

"Holy crap! Could it be munitions? They dare to discuss this? Aren't they afraid of being arrested!?"

"Damn, could it really be true?"

"I didn't expect it, Lin Heng is actually a hidden munitions dealer!"

"Isn't that obvious? His file states that on the very first day, he assisted an African chief in a war."

"I always thought that stuff was just part of his persona, something to stir up excitement. I didn't expect it to actually be true! Is this guy really that awesome? Publicly selling munitions, does his school even know?"

"..."

The bullet comments in the live stream flew by rapidly.

They always thought most of Lin Heng's persona was fake, but unexpectedly, a real piece of evidence emerged.

This confirmed it completely!

What else is there to say!

"Six six six (Awesome), I wonder what expression those people will have when they hear their conversation."

"Lin Heng is getting more and more formidable now. I feel like the Berlin Security System being breached last time was also his doing. With that coding speed, he could probably crash the entire world network without breaking a sweat."

"Why don't you just have Lin Heng go up to the sky and knock down the Pretty Country's satellites? Then lock onto their military bases and fire a shot?"

Everyone had the expression of watching a good show.

At worst, the live stream would be shut down; they were just watching the drama unfold, it wouldn't affect them.

But this Lin Heng looked too real.

Just one word: satisfying!

At this moment, Prince Sadiqa of Dubai wore a look of bitter pleading.

"Lin Heng, can't you just help us? You know the Pretty Country covets our oil. Those greedy wolves on Wall Street actually want to short oil, buying it at super low prices, and they even sent out troops for this purpose! During this period, water has become more expensive than oil where we are!"

Hearing this, Lin Heng rolled his eyes.

"Isn't water already more expensive than oil where you are?"

"This... Mr. Lin, please don't focus on such trivial details."

"In short, if we don't have your help, perhaps even if the oil price drops, it won't do you any good either."

Sadiqa pleaded bitterly, almost kneeling down right there.

Hearing this, Lin Heng clapped his hands, "Isn't that a good thing? Quite a few people in our Dragon Country feel that oil prices are too high. Forget 98 or 97 octane; even 95 is about to hit ten yuan. Before, 93 octane was only five or six yuan, but now it sells for seven yuan everywhere except in the remote mountains!"

"People also need to calculate the cost."

Lin Heng said casually.

Hearing this, Sadiqa was startled.

He carefully considered it and felt something was off.

"But... where we are, it only costs one or two yuan..."

In the live stream.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Ellipses filled the screen.

"Damn, what happened? Why are there only ellipses? I was gone for less than a minute; did something big happen?"

"I don't know either. What exactly happened? I want to see what I missed."

"I feel like I missed out on a hundred million."

"Does anyone who understands know? Hurry up and explain, I'm dying of anxiety!"

"People have three urgent needs (I don't know, don't know, still don't know)."

"..."

Everyone was utterly confused and couldn't grasp what was going on.

They were all puzzled.

At this moment, someone quickly spoke up to explain:

"It's nothing. That Prince of Dubai just said that oil in their country only costs one or two yuan, which is indeed cheaper than water."

"Holy crap!?"

Isn't that too unbelievable!?

The audience in the live stream quickly couldn't sit still.

"Damn it, I don't know how happy I would be if oil was one or two yuan a liter!"

"Wuwu, poverty really limits my imagination. I need to read more, otherwise, I wouldn't even know what the Prince was saying."

"Oh my god, even if water is a rare resource where they are, maybe this situation is real—oil is actually less valuable than water. This is true!"

"Good heavens! One or two yuan there is for a liter of gasoline, a whole liter! Do you know how expensive a bottle of Nongfu Spring is? Two yuan! Only half a liter!"

"I never thought a two-yuan bottle of water was expensive before, but now it seems I've found the answer."

"Oh my god, I don't even know how many times I've been reaped by the sickle (taken advantage of)..."
