Chapter 250 Airbus 320
In a remarkable display of efficiency, the Overlord had completed the task in five days, surpassing Liu Yong\'s initial expectations of it taking at least a week, if not more.
Bawang transported approximately 200 tons of fish oil daily to the ever-changing seaside location as per Liu Yong\'s instructions. The coastal town where Huang Guang and his companions resided was situated at a distance of over ten kilometres, with the transportation route spanning twenty to thirty kilometres. Once the fish oil was delivered to the seaside, Huang Guang, accompanied by the Diya Company and Melpark Company teams, collected the necessary documentation as proof of receipt.
On the other side, Overlord retreated to its temporary dwelling, indulging in its desires and enjoying a satisfying feast. There was no immediate concern about sustenance, for within a nearby cave lay two or three massive, enigmatic white fish. These wondrous creatures provided enough food for the Overlord to feast upon for over a week.
In the past few days, the Overlord had hunted down and slain more than two dozen of these peculiar white fish, discarding most of them as their purpose was solely to extract the precious fat within their bellies. Thus, the entire bodies of the white fish were lost, sinking gradually into the depths of the terrific trench, unaware of the fate that befell them.
Bawang emerged from the cave, dragging a white fish in its wake. Devouring it voraciously, it satisfied its hunger and proceeded to rest and slumber at the cavern\'s entrance.
Meanwhile, within the office\'s confines, Liu Yong engaged in a telephone conversation with Huang Guang. "Brother Yong," Huang Guang\'s voice emanated from the other end of the line, "the transaction has been successfully completed. A total of 1,000 tons of fish oil, with each company receiving 500 tons."
Liu Yong expressed his gratitude, commending everyone for their hard work. He allowed them to spend a couple of days exploring the Middle East, particularly Dubai, with all expenses being reimbursed by the company.
Huang Guang\'s delight was palpable as he responded, "Brother Yong, that\'s fantastic! I\'ve heard so much about the city of Dubai but haven\'t had the chance to experience it firsthand."
Sensing the excitement in Huang Guang\'s voice, Liu Yong replied, "Then take the team and revel in the wonders of Dubai for a few days. Two or three days may not suffice; aim for four or five days."
"Thank you, Brother Yong. On behalf of everyone, I express our heartfelt gratitude," Huang Guang expressed his appreciation, his voice brimming with excitement.
Within a particular hotel in the Middle East, completing their mission granted them the praise of their leader, Brother Yong, and the opportunity to revel in the splendours of Dubai for four to five days before returning. Huang Guang eagerly summoned his team members, totalling eleven individuals, consisting of three women and seven men, apart from himself.
The team members swiftly gathered, and upon seeing Huang Guang\'s delight, they couldn\'t help but anticipate his following words. Huang Guang wasted no time and addressed them directly, "Our mission has been accomplished flawlessly. Now, what are your plans?"
Upon hearing Huang Guang\'s inquiry, a few astute individuals immediately sensed something more at play. One of them asked, "Manager Huang, could it be that we have planned future activities and won\'t be returning to China immediately?"
With a smile, Huang Guang replied, "Well, if you\'re all so eager to return, I can book your tickets right away."
However, the response was a collective wave of heads shaking in disagreement. "No, no," someone interjected eagerly, "We don\'t wish to return so soon. It would be ideal to spend an additional two or three days enjoying our time."
This prompted another to chime in, "Manager Huang, this opportunity to travel abroad is rare. We rarely get the chance to venture out, so even if we can only spend a single day in Dubai during our layover, it would suffice."
"Yes, indeed! I also yearn to explore Dubai and witness its wonders," many voiced their desires, their eyes gleaming with hope. Some secretly feared their return to China without an opportunity to pause and absorb the experiences they had encountered.
Little did they expect that Huang Guang\'s following words would astonish them all. With an infectious happiness in his voice, Huang Guang dispelled their doubts, saying, "Since everyone wishes to revel in the splendors of Dubai, I see no reason why we can\'t. Let us stay in Dubai for a glorious five days!"
A collective gasp escaped their lips, a stunned silence descending upon the room. Was it possible? Could they truly immerse themselves in the delights of Dubai for a full five days?
Yi Huarong, one of the supervisors, was the first to regain composure and asked in disbelief, "Manager Huang, did I hear you correctly? Are we genuinely permitted to spend five whole days in Dubai?"
Huang Guang replied, his tone unwavering, "Yes, my friends. Relax and enjoy the wonders of Dubai to your heart\'s content. You have a maximum of five days to savor the experience."
The room erupted into a cacophony of astonishment. Everyone collectively experienced a surge of joy and disbelief. They were granted a dreamlike opportunity to immerse themselves in the splendours of Dubai for five glorious days.
"This is unbelievable!"
"A dream come true! We have five whole days to enjoy!"
Beaming with satisfaction, Huang Guang surveyed the room filled with ecstatic faces, delivering the news that would evoke an even more profound reaction. "Oh, and there\'s more," he declared, capturing their attention. "Our generous boss has proclaimed that all expenses, including food, accommodation, transportation, travel tickets, and a shopping allowance of $10,000 per person, will be fully reimbursed."
Another wave of shock washed over them. It took a while for the magnitude of their good fortune to sink in. Subsequently, the room burst into life as jubilation reverberated within its walls. Cheers erupted, and amidst the joy, the phrase "Long live the boss" resounded passionately.
Brimming with excitement, Qiu Yang burst into the room and exclaimed, "Boss, a staggering $10 billion has just been credited to our account!"
$10 billion! The sum was nothing short of astonishing. In a mere five days, Bawang had accomplished such a feat. The Global Shipping Group possessed even more significant resources with this financial windfall.
Liu Yong breathed a sigh of relief, responding, "Excellent. Once the funds are received, we shall proceed with ordering another fleet of large ships. Speaking of which, tomorrow I suggest we pay a visit to the Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group. Would you accompany me?"
Qiu Yang, taken aback, queried, "Boss, are we heading to Changxing Island instead of Qidong Shipyard?"
Liu Yong nodded and explained, "Indeed, Changxing Island. We still have several ships under construction at the shipyard, and I believe they can handle an additional order without much difficulty."
"Understood, boss," Qiu Yang affirmed, "I shall make all the necessary arrangements for an early morning visit to Changxing Island."
Liu Yong then issued an unexpected instruction, stating, "To streamline the process, let us charter a flight. Our group should have its own plane."
Qiu Yang was momentarily stunned, as the idea of Global Shipping Group owning an aircraft had never crossed his mind. However, he quickly grasped the situation, realizing that with the $2 billion from YD and the recent $10 billion influx, the company had ample funds to support such an endeavour. The prospect of having their plane was exhilarating, prompting a sense of newfound wealth.
"Alright," Qiu Yang exclaimed, his excitement palpable. "I will promptly contact the aircraft manufacturing company."
The following day, at dawn, Liu Yong arrived at Huahai International Airport with Kang Zhenggang and He Qiang by his side. Qiu Yang and a group of over ten had gathered, awaiting the boss\'s arrival. They flocked over as soon as they spotted him, exchanging greetings and well wishes.
Liu Yong gestured for them to enter the airport, stating, "Let us proceed and board the plane."
Following Liu Yong\'s instructions, the group took a chartered flight to the Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group. An Airbus 320 had been prepared and awaited their arrival on the tarmac patiently.
