I Have A Dual World Seal

Lu Zheng couldn’t help but laugh, "Really? No kidding, you already have the Celestial Whale, right? If you’re really building islands, why would it be up to me?"

"No matter how strong the Celestial Whale is, building islands also requires time, and it also needs an existing reef as a foundation," Xiao Yuya said. "The key point is, all the islands we build are in the middle of the Nansha Islands."

Xiao Yuya briefly educated Lu Zheng on the situation in the South Sea.

Among the four major island groups in the South Sea, Hua Country controls three of them, including the one to the west, which even experienced a naval battle back in the day.

But the situation in the southernmost and largest Nansha Islands is very complicated.

The eastern part is occupied by the Lighthouse Country’s former colony, now a fence-sitter.

The western part is occupied by Hua Country’s former little brother, now laying low as a budding industrial nation, crossing the river by feeling our stones.

The southern part is occupied by a country with little presence but a tendency to exploit opportunities.

When Hua Country’s national power was weak, it took great effort to secure a part of the central island reefs in the South Sea. Later, with no strong conflicts on multiple sides, the status quo could only be maintained.

However, as Hua Country grows stronger now, land reclamation and island-building are in full swing, and several unsinkable aircraft carriers have already been built in the Nansha Islands, increasing its presence.

"But in terms of location, we’re actually surrounded by three parties."

Xiao Yuya said solemnly, "And they all have had land reclamation and island-building attempts before, which just failed.

But as technology becomes increasingly mature and these countries follow in our footsteps, with better economic development, island-building is becoming simpler and more cost-effective.

Once they start building, the parts that are currently small reefs can easily become islands, and once they have created established facts, we will also become very passive.

It’s not unsolvable, but it will be very passive.

After all, we’re not the Lighthouse Country; we can’t just resort to force indiscriminately. If the other side shamelessly resorts to rogue tactics, we’d also be very uncomfortable.

You see, just a stranded ship from Banana Country has stirred up so many issues, consuming so much of our energy."

"So, what do you want to do?" Lu Zheng asked curiously.

Xiao Yuya hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to start.

Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said blandly, "I can stir up waves and drown everyone on those island reefs; those reefs will be vacated, and you can occupy them anytime without facing any resistance."

Xiao Yuya swallowed, "And then we’d be left with our reefs, right?"

Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow playfully, "How about that, does it fit?"

Xiao Yuya thought about it and shook her head a bit dryly, "Probably not very appropriate..."

Si Lingxi shook her head, her face indifferent but clearly disdaining.

Xiao Yuya wanted to explain, but Si Lingxi picked up her phone, clearly not wanting to listen at all.

Lu Zheng couldn’t help but laugh heartily, waved his hand, and interrupted Xiao Yuya.

"No worries, she doesn’t understand, I understand. Some things are indeed hard to handle, and it’s even more impossible to confront directly, as it’s easy to result in a 404 error."

"I roughly get what you mean." Lu Zheng smiled, "In the furthest west, south, and east, you want to create something from nothing, fill in the sea and build islands, forming an encirclement, blooming from the center, am I right?"

How to put it, the line in the South Sea almost reaches the opponent’s border. If Lu Zheng could really build islands right along the line, it would be like directly navigating an aircraft carrier right to their face.

Honestly, this situation poses a bigger threat than driving them away from those few island reefs in the central sea.

And those island reefs are more directly like fish on the chopping block, ready to be chopped off at any time.

"Yes, exactly!" Xiao Yuya nodded repeatedly and couldn’t help but ask expectantly, "Is it possible?"

Last year, Lu Zheng completed the Red Chess River project in two months, shocking the people in the Ancient Culture Research and Analysis Archival Room to their core, making them realize Lu Zheng’s true capabilities.

Moving mountains and reclaiming the sea, he considers such feats as trivial.

No matter where such a person is placed, he is a true Immortal.

Then they couldn’t help but study how Lu Zheng’s abilities could be applied elsewhere.

Whether they could ask him for another favor is one question, but just imagining and daydreaming wouldn’t hurt, would it?

Someone proposed drilling tunnels all over the country, so you wouldn’t need to manufacture shield machines every time, and then they almost got criticized to death.

Seriously thinking Lu Zheng should be used as labor, huh? Believe it or not, he might bury you first?

Besides, domestic shield machine development companies haven’t enjoyed good days for long either; what have they done to provoke your targeting?

╮(╯▽╰)╭

Then the conversation shifted to land reclamation and island-building, specifically in the South Sea.

So, when Lu Zheng mentioned building islands in the South Sea, Xiao Yuya became excited and directly shared everyone’s imagination.

"Of course, it’s a piece of cake." Lu Zheng gently sipped his coffee, "But..."

Lu Zheng blinked and shrugged, "I’m really busy lately, not much free time."

Xiao Yuya, "..."

An excuse, a totally blatant excuse!

Well, this was entirely within the expectations of the Ancient Culture Research and Analysis Archival Room.

Moreover, it’s just an imagination, the people in the Ancient Culture Archival Room wouldn’t actually pin a national strategy on one person.

These imaginations are more of a delightful surprise than anything else.

"Cough cough, it’s fine." Xiao Yuya couldn’t help but cough dryly twice; she was a bit too excited herself, "I was too excited; we were just imagining things."

Lu Zheng nodded and then naturally changed the subject, "By the way, since we met, I also have something I need your help with."

Xiao Yuya’s eyes lit up, "Go on."

Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, "I need a genuine doctoral background from a medical university, and a medical practice license."

"Liu Qingyan!" Xiao Yuya blurted out.

"Hmm?"

Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow, and Xiao Yuya immediately shrunk her neck, realizing she exposed something, but could only explain weakly, "We saw it by accident..."

Lu Zheng nonchalantly nodded and just asked, "Can you do it?"

"Absolutely!" Xiao Yuya nodded earnestly, "Of course we can. Would you like us to appoint her as a traditional Chinese medicine expert in a core department, with an ancient heritage label, publicly available online?"

"Can you?" Lu Zheng asked.

"Of course we can!" Xiao Yuya nodded again.

Kidding, who is Liu Qingyan? She’s an Immortal from another world!

Not mentioning anything else, just looking at the states of Lu Zheng and Lin Wan’s parents, as well as Zhao Xiaodao, you know the Immortal’s best...

is nurturing (feng) life (xiong)!

Not to mention the edited "Barefoot Doctor’s Manual" by her, even after some parts were removed, it was shown to several experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctors, who concluded that it was written by an extremely seasoned physician, and the needle acupuncture technique is unmatched!

Medicinal wine, health preservation, rejuvenation...

The Ancient Culture Research and Analysis Archival Room people have always carefully avoided this topic and strictly kept it secret externally.

After all, nowadays, the only fair thing between the privileged and ordinary people is life and death.

And living long, even just longevity, is the most tempting ability to arouse the upper class’s desires.

Faced with Lu Zheng, who comes from ordinary civilians, they would absolutely not want him to grow resentful or become unnecessarily wary of them for this reason.
