50: Chapter 50 Lying? Not a chance!

Three days later.

Yang Fan finally obtained one hundred thousand tons of water and transported it all to the apocalyptic space for the trade with Lin Dong.

He also appeared within the space.

Then, he witnessed a Dimensional Ring, something only seen in cultivation novels.

It directly took in all the water.

"Dimensional Rings actually exist?"

"What's there to be curious about? You're still using the space provided by the system?"

Lin Dong tossed over a ring.

"The built-in space is stable, but it's too small. I'll give you one; these things aren't worth much anyway!"

Yang Fan took it and looked; there were bloodstains on it, clearly not his own—it was obviously snatched from someone else.

No wonder he said it wasn't worth much.

"How do I use this?"

"Your mental power is too weak; you can't sense the space."

As Lin Dong spoke, a Red Crystal floated to Yang Fan's side. It was slightly larger than the previous green crystal, about the size of a baby's fist.

"Eat this and you'll be able to reach Tier 3."

Yang Fan looked at the crystal in his hand, feeling lost. He had spent a lot of money on that water—over a hundred million. Why did he feel like he was more of a sucker than Emperor Taizong of Tang?

"Eat it and you'll understand once you feel it."

Lin Dong was in no hurry to leave.

Yang Fan put the crystal directly into his mouth, having had the experience once before.

The crystal was bitten into and entered his stomach, digesting automatically.

Yang Fan could feel varying degrees of pain appearing all over his body; even his bones began to ache.

"What's happening? I won't die, will I?"

"It's fine, it's normal evolution. To bear greater power, your organs and bones must evolve; otherwise, you'd shock yourself to death with a single punch."

Lin Dong opened a bottle of water and drank "leisurely."

However, his leisure consisted of finishing a bottle every few seconds...

20 minutes later.

Yang Fan felt the pain in his body recede.

His whole body felt as if he had just come out of the water.

Yang Fan stretched, and his body emitted crisp cracking sounds.

Yang Fan was secretly shocked; that tiny little thing just now contained such immense energy.

He indeed felt as if his entire body had undergone bone tempering.

His body felt several levels lighter.

[Transaction complete, evaluation F, obtained 1 transaction point.]

Yang Fan was speechless. This really was hard to change; all that water and only one point?

"Should we have a match?"

Yang Fan felt an unprecedented comfort in his body, his mind was clear, and he could sense the dimensional space on his hand.

The end was nowhere in sight; it was at least a dozen kilometers wide, looking as if reality had been compressed into it.

Lin Dong shook his head.

"Outside this space, I could crush you to death a thousand times in a second."

"Let's continue the trade. You've felt this evolution energy now; can we trade formally this time?"

Yang Fan nodded. This was indeed good stuff, enhancing strength in every aspect.

"How much water do you want?"

Yang Fan knew the other party was currently lacking water and nothing else.

"10 million tons."

The water resources in Lin Dong's world were either occupied by powerful creatures or so polluted that humans could no longer drink them.

"That's too much. Let's say 1 million tons. I can't trade too much; although we have a lot of purified water, it's not that exaggerated."

Yang Fan was already preparing to build his own factory.

Otherwise, the cost of buying it would be too high. Although the production capacity there was sufficient, transportation and storage were issues for him.

Lin Dong had drunk so much water that he was starting to feel a bit drowsy and needed to rest. After all, his body hadn't been saturated with water resources for a long time.

"Fine."

"What resources do you want?"

"10 items that can awaken abilities, the same thing I just ate, plus 50 times the amount of all the equipment from last time, 10,000 Type 107 107mm Rocket Launchers, 1,000 88mm Anti-aircraft Guns, 10 times the previous amount of ammunition, and spare gun barrels."

Yang Fan realized this time that the guy opposite him didn't care about arms at all, so he asked for more.

As for why he didn't ask for heavy artillery, it was because the troops over there weren't mechanized; heavy artillery would only slow them down.

Besides, everyone knows about the 107mm Rocket Launcher!

"I can only give you three awakening energy sources; these are products from the early days of the Apocalypse a century ago, and I don't have many left."

"As for evolution energy, I can give you 5."

"Give me the ring on your hand."

Yang Fan handed it over directly. It had met his expectations, but what shocked him was: could this person have lived through the early days of the Apocalypse?

No change in appearance for 100 years?

Lin Dong put the equipment into the space and then handed it back to Yang Fan.

"The equipment is for you. As for the awakening energy, I'll give you one first, and the rest when you bring the water."

After Lin Dong finished speaking, he tossed the ring and the energy source to Yang Fan and vanished.

Yang Fan took it and looked.

5,099 barretts, 5,090 Gatling Guns, 5,080 mortars, 50,800 assault rifles, 50,800 Submachine Guns, 10,000 107mm howitzers, and 1,000 88mm Anti-aircraft Guns.

Plus 100 basic units of ammunition.

This was definitely enough to change the Liangjian World.

As for the energy that could awaken abilities, he would think more about who to give it to.

Yang Fan saw a call coming in on his phone and immediately exited the space.

"Hello, I've arrived in Shanghai."

Ye Qingcheng's voice came through.

"Oh, you need me to pick you up?"

Ye Qingcheng was silent for a few seconds; for the sake of the mission, she endured it.

"Where is your company? I'll go take a look."

"There is no company yet. You're the only person recruited for the company right now."

Although Yang Fan knew a bit about finance, he hadn't had time lately to deal with hiring or finding office space.

Shouldn't these all be the CEO's job?

"This is the 10 billion you're planning to invest? You haven't prepared anything?"

"I just need to prepare the money. The rest is up to you, isn't it? I've never opened a company before."

"Have you ever seen a boss who pays out of pocket and does all the work?"

Yang Fan directly posed a soul-searching question.

Ye Qingcheng was speechless; what he said wasn't wrong.

But aren't you afraid your subordinates will directly embezzle more than half of your money?

"Then should I go register the company now?"

"Of course. You have connections in Shanghai; registering a company should take no time at all!"

Yang Fan had been waiting for her to come; after all, 'it's easier to get things done when you know people' was never just an empty phrase.

"Using my other connections like this... you'll have to pay extra!"

Ye Qingcheng hadn't expected this guy to be so cunning. If she became the CEO, no one would indeed come looking for trouble.

"Don't worry, I'll give you dividends from the company's profits—five percent."

Yang Fan chuckled. With the things he was investing in, it would be good enough not to lose money; as for making a profit, the possibility wasn't high.

They were all consumables, and many were for trading. He just wanted to get them at an ultra-low price; he didn't have a plan for making money yet.

"That's fine then. You have to draw up a contract; don't go back on your word when the time comes."

"Definitely. Am I that kind of person? I never do anything to cheat people!"
