Chapter 971
2. Perfection
Yang Xia's actions were, of course, based on careful consideration from multiple perspectives. The Yan Kingdom and the Phil Kingdom currently enjoy the closest relationship, and the Phil Kingdom possesses formidable technological strength. It was precisely this aspect of the Phil Kingdom that attracted Yang Xia initially, which is why he extended an olive branch to them first upon arriving in this other world, successfully establishing contact with Kanapan. As it turns out, Yang Xia's foresight was exceptionally sharp; the cooperation with the Phil Kingdom has been very pleasant, and progress has already been made in many areas. Reflecting on it, it's remarkable that so many amazing changes have occurred in just a few months since he arrived in this other world. Yang Xia is confident that he will be able to fully achieve his grand goals in the days to come.
After receiving Yang Xia's invitation, Kanapan had no idea what the other party wanted to discuss. However, through his interactions with Yang Xia, Kanapan discovered that Yang Xia was a genius of unparalleled talent. His mind was exceptionally sharp, always able to think of things that others couldn't. No wonder Kanapan stood by Yang Xia's side without hesitation, unafraid of falling out with Tanawu. He believed that only by following someone like Yang Xia was the right choice; perhaps this was the power of the gods that had brought them to know Yang Xia.
The next day, Kanapan arrived in Yan Kingdom in high spirits. Every encounter with Yang Xia brought unexpected surprises, which gave Kanapan increasing confidence, and he planned to follow in Yang Xia's footsteps. "Yang Xia, is there something important you want to discuss with me? Or do you want to buy me a drink?" Kanapan and Yang Xia had become very close, and they couldn't help but tease each other upon meeting.
"Of course, I have something important to discuss with you. Let's drink and chat, it's the best of both worlds." Yang Xia's attitude towards him was particularly warm. The two of them happily drank and talked about important matters together.
"King of Kanapan, I previously gave you an advanced chip. Now I want to create a major brand, but I hope our two countries can work together on this." After sitting down, Yang Xia didn't keep them in suspense but directly told Kanapan about the situation.
"I see. I knew you were a very insightful person, and it seems my guess was completely correct." Kanapan nodded seriously, his admiration for Yang Xia growing stronger.
"So you mean you're willing to co-brand with me and create this big brand?" Yang Xia was particularly happy to hear Canapan say this, knowing that the other party still trusted him a lot.
"This matter concerns the development of a nation, and I need to think it over carefully." Kanapan knew that Yang Xia's ideas were very powerful, but as the ruler of Phil, he had to consider the interests of the entire country. Such a major decision could not be made impulsively.
"King Kanapan, you should certainly consider this carefully. Moreover, our Yan Kingdom will offer the greatest assistance and concessions." Yang Xia, wise and insightful, agreed with Kanapan's statement. He wouldn't use his power to force others to do things like Tanawu did. Especially in national development, the principle of harmonious development should be upheld for long-term sustainability; no one likes to be controlled by others.
Kanapan fell into deep thought, wanting to consider all aspects of the situation thoroughly, and expressing his willingness to sincerely cooperate with Yang Xia. After a moment's consideration, Kanapan voiced all his doubts. After all, for genuine cooperation, all issues needed to be clarified. "Yang Xia, how do you plan to handle tariffs and commodity taxes?" Kanapan discussed these matters in detail with Yang Xia.
"King of Kanapan, we'll offer Phil the lowest prices in all these areas. We'll split the profits 50/50 between our two countries. What do you think?" Yang Xia was even more straightforward, giving such a reply that deeply moved Kanapan.
"Yang Xia, you really are a straightforward person. Deal!" Kanapan could see that Yang Xia was genuinely committed to cooperating with Phil and leading the country towards development in these areas. He had long known that Yang Xia was no ordinary person, and that following him was the right thing to do. Now that Yang Xia was being so generous and offering such generous terms, it would be unreasonable for him not to agree. Kanapan immediately gave his approval, and the two of them settled the matter directly.
Overjoyed, Kanapan immediately took Yang Xia to the research institute in Phil Kingdom. Upon arrival, Yang Xia was even more delighted. The Phil Kingdom's research institute was a gathering place for elites, and it would bring him significant opportunities for advancement. It seemed Yang Xia's foresight was truly remarkable; their plans were poised for rapid progress.
“You are all elite individuals, and I believe you can certainly accomplish things according to my requirements.”
Yang Xia had high expectations for them and stated his requirements directly.
"Did you all understand? When can we expect the results?" Kanapan was getting impatient.
"Your Majesty, we have heard everything clearly. We guarantee that there will be results in half a month."
The researchers from Phil were indeed very helpful, providing a direct answer that greatly satisfied Yang Xia and Kanapan.
"Yang Xia, now we can continue drinking without worry. We're sure to see some very encouraging results in half a month."
Kanapan had some good wine and food brought out and chatted warmly with Yang Xia for a while, already treating Yang Xia as his good friend.
Although they were monarchs of two different countries, it did not affect the friendship between them.
As the saying goes, "A thousand cups of wine are not enough when drinking with a bosom friend," and Yang Xia and Kanapan both felt this way, so they happily drank together.
After returning to Yan, Yang Xia always had a gratified smile on his face, knowing that his efforts would eventually be rewarded.
In half a month, Yan Kingdom and Phil Kingdom will usher in a leapfrog development.
General Meng Yu also brought good news to Yang Xia: he had successfully photographed the layout of the mines in the sea.
General Meng Yu had indeed put in a tremendous amount of effort and endured countless hardships to obtain these precious photographs, before returning to Yan Kingdom after a three-day and three-night trek through mountains and rivers.
Although he was extremely exhausted, General Meng Yu was incredibly excited. Without taking a break, he immediately went to see Yang Xia and presented the photos to him.
"Excellent! These photos are very clear, capturing the layout of the mines exceptionally well. General Meng Yu, thank you for your hard work."
Yang Xia was overjoyed to see the photos. With these clear pictures, the next steps could proceed as planned.
"Your Majesty, although we have captured images of the mine layout, how can we extract diamonds from the deep sea?"
"This process is still very dangerous. If we use manual labor, we might accidentally trigger those mines."
Meng Yu had no idea what Yang Xia's purpose was in having him photograph the layout of the mines, nor did he know anything about the upcoming actions.
"Of course we can't mine diamonds manually; we need to use some advanced instruments. I've already made arrangements for all of that."
Seeing Meng Yu's puzzled look, Yang Xia gave him a brief explanation. Of course, Yang Xia had already made arrangements for these matters.
"Your Majesty, what kind of instrument is it? Is it really that amazing?" Meng Yu became interested after hearing about this and was eager to know what Yang Xia would do next.
"I haven't fully thought about it yet, but I should be able to give you a more accurate answer by tomorrow."
While communicating with General Meng Yu, Yang Xia carefully examined the photos showing the distribution of these naval mines.
These photos clearly show that the mines are scattered in a circle around the diamonds. If you have sufficiently sophisticated instruments, you can successfully extract the diamonds.
Of course, Yang Xia doesn't have such sophisticated equipment on hand right now; he needs to exchange it in the system, so he can't explain it to Meng Yu in detail.
"General Meng Yu, you've worked hard. Go and rest now. I'll tell you tomorrow what kind of sophisticated instruments we'll use to mine diamonds." Yang Xia smiled slightly at Meng Yu and told him to go and rest. He also needed to browse the system store to find particularly sophisticated instruments to ensure that the upcoming quarrying activities would go smoothly.
"Your Majesty, I take my leave."
General Meng Yu naturally trusted Yang Xia implicitly, knowing that he had such abilities and would definitely be able to find this instrument.
After Meng Yu left, Yang Xia couldn't wait to enter the system store. He wanted to carefully select and find an instrument that he was satisfied with.
Based on his previous assessment, the instrument he was looking for had to be able to extract diamonds vertically from above to avoid any accidents.
Suddenly, a sophisticated instrument called a seismograph came into Yang Xia's view.
After carefully examining its functions, Yang Xia became increasingly excited; this was the instrument he had been looking for.
"Great, I've finally found the treasure I need."
Yang Xia was incredibly excited, and didn't even care about the exchange price. He pressed the exchange button directly, as long as he had enough points, these other aspects were not a problem.
Only by resolving this security threat can Yang Xia confidently develop the strength of the Yan Kingdom in the other world. Yang Xia is unwavering in this belief.
After obtaining such a treasure, Yang Xia exited the system shop.
After successfully exchanging the seismograph, Yang Xia continued to study its various functions to ensure that they were completely consistent with his ideas.
This seismograph can detect the ripples and vibrations on the seabed, and these ripples and vibrations can detonate mines in advance. At that time, Yang Xia can operate the instrument to quarry stones.
This series of seamless coordination is what makes it possible to complete such a challenging quarrying task.
Any problem that occurs in any link of the process will result in heavy losses and unimaginable consequences. However, Yang Xia knew that the precision instruments he had exchanged from the system would not have any problems.
He was full of confidence in the next diamond mining operation and was just waiting to go to that sea area again the next day.
However, this time Yang Xia planned to go alone, since these advanced instruments did not belong to another world, and he did not want others to see this situation.
With these advanced instruments, there is no need for manual data collection, and we don't want to see any unexpected situations occur. If one person operates these instruments, there will be no problems.
Early the next morning, Yang Xia prepared a lifeboat, intending to go alone.
"Your Majesty, are you really going alone? It's too dangerous. Why don't I take a group of men and go with you?"
Before setting off, General Meng Yu was still very worried and kept discussing with Yang Xia, wanting him to take some people with him.
Meng Yu couldn't understand why Yang Xia would risk his life alone for something so important.
"It's alright. With these sophisticated instruments, it's actually safer for me to go alone. If someone else were to trigger a mine, something terrible would happen."
"I will signal you after I have carefully finished collecting those diamonds, and then we will transport them back to Yan together. This matter must be kept secret."
Yang Xia had already decided to do this, and of course he couldn't easily change his mind. Meng Yu had no choice but to nod and agree to Yang Xia's decision.
Yang Xia went to the seabed alone in the life pod. He began to operate the seismograph in his hand, and the seismograph began to vibrate, pointing to Yang Xia's due south, which was where the diamond was located.
Yang Xia carefully took protective measures to ensure that he would not be in any dangerous situation; this was something that had to be absolutely guaranteed.
Ripples continued to spread across the sea surface, and the mines were all detonated by the vibrations of the ripples.
Yang Xia was still a little worried, so he took the instruments and conducted further measurements to ensure that there were no mines present before the diamond mining activity could begin.
After a thorough inspection to ensure there were no mines in the vicinity, Yang Xia used advanced equipment, such as excavators, to begin mining diamonds.
These advanced devices are unlike anything seen in other countries; they are Yang Xia's unique treasures, and of course he doesn't want to display them to anyone.
"I didn't expect these gadgets to be so powerful; they're really fun to operate!" Yang Xia was overjoyed as he watched the machines load the diamonds one by one into the cabin.
Yang Xia has been under immense pressure these past few days because of the diamond, fearing that some unexpected situation might arise.
Fortunately, I was able to exchange for these amazing treasures from the system, which allowed me to complete these tasks smoothly; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Of course, no one else knew about Yang Xia's mysterious identity, and they all regarded him as a god. There was no task that Yang Xia could not complete.
Meng Yu waited anxiously on the shore for Yang Xia's signal. He didn't know if things were going smoothly, and his heart was pounding.
Although Yang Xia was like a god in their hearts, capable of handling everything, this was an impossible problem for Meng Yu to solve.
He had no idea how Yang Xia had obtained so much advanced equipment; it seemed as if it had fallen from the sky. (End of Chapter)
