Chapter 1679 - 610: Cultivation 3

The speedboat can only stop at the shore; one must jump into the water and wade through it to reach the beach.

Now, with a standard pier, the speedboat can dock directly.

He Tiantian and Yuan Mei got off the boat, and surprisingly, there was a second-hand pickup truck parked at the pier.

"Boss!"

Duan Yong had been staying on the island for over a month and had gotten quite tanned.

He saw the speedboat approaching and jumped directly from the pickup truck, grinned showing his white teeth, and excitedly greeted He Tiantian.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

He Tiantian couldn’t help but comment on how his white teeth stood out against his tanned face and the sunburns on his exposed arms.

"Not at all! Not at all!"

Duan Yong hurriedly waved his hand, "The island’s infrastructure is handled by a professional company; I’m just here to watch over things for you!"

In matters like material scheduling, personnel management, or the laying of underwater cables, Duan Yong does not need to get involved.

He is merely a mascot representing He Tiantian; a dog could do the job just as well.

He didn’t do much actual work.

But the gains were substantial; besides the high monthly salary He Tiantian sends him, he made many acquaintances.

The head of the infrastructure company, coast guards of nearby sea regions, and even leaders of a certain naval base...

In less than two months on the island, Duan Yong’s network of contacts had grown immensely.

Importantly, many of these people were from circles he could never reach before.

Moreover, due to helping He Tiantian, his former mercenary experience was "cleaned up."

He even gained official "recognition!"

This is something money couldn’t buy.

Every day on the island, Duan Yong thought: Luckily, I have a discerning eye and chose the right boss.

In the future, I’ll definitely live a glorious and comfortable life.

Thus, Duan Yong’s gratitude towards He Tiantian reached its peak.

While he might not follow to the death, he is certainly He Tiantian’s most loyal henchman!

Duan Yong opened the car door diligently, allowing He Tiantian and Yuan Mei to settle in, then drove the pickup from the pier straight to the First Island.

A road now connects the three islands, providing free passage.

He Tiantian didn’t rush to tour the island but first headed to the main island.

On the main island, there was a spacious plot where a two-entry courtyard dwelling had been built.

The courtyard backed onto a small hill, facing a vast flat area.

He Tiantian walked across this land, contemplating, "Hmm, this can be cultivated into farmland, with flowers, vegetables, and grains. First Island could achieve self-sufficiency!"

The houses were built with an antique charm.

On the other side of the courtyard stood a three-story building.

Compared to the antique courtyard, this building had a more modern feel.

He Tiantian knew this was her "experimental building."

Additionally, small cabins, grape trellises, and other small items were constructed according to her plans.

She opened the courtyard gate and walked into the dwelling; it had been cleaned, and furniture and appliances were all in place.

He Tiantian could move in directly without much hassle.

The fridge and storage rooms were stocked with fresh fruits and vegetables, meat, eggs, rice, and noodles.

"Duan Yong, you really are thoughtful!"

Furniture and appliances may not be significant as they are standard,

but even the ingredients are ready, and pots and pans are in place; that shows Duan Yong’s "intentions."

Hearing He Tiantian’s praise, Duan Yong modestly brushed it off, even though a wide smile spread across his face.

That day, He Tiantian stayed on the First Island.

She chose the main house of the central courtyard, while Yuan Mei stayed in the east wing.

Duan Yong and several helpers from nearby fishing villages stayed in the guest rooms of the first courtyard.

At night, instead of sleeping, He Tiantian sat cross-legged.

The moment she stepped onto the island, she felt traces of spiritual energy.

It was still thin, but much purer than in the inland big cities.

He Tiantian didn’t want to waste it; she sat with five hearts facing upward, starting to perform the Junior Master Uncle’s Wuji Technique...
