Chapter 842 - 449: Succubus Girlfriend (Part 2)
"The energy copper content in high-energy super crystal batteries is relatively high. Calculating at an 8% ratio, this requires 80,000 tons of energy copper."
"Currently, due to the lack of energy copper to manufacture super crystal batteries, fulfilling orders has become a big problem."
Ling Shuiling already understood, "This time opening the World Gate is for mining energy copper?"
Yang Fan nodded, "Actually, a few months ago, the exploration team discovered a large energy copper ore vein, but it’s buried over 3.5 kilometers deep."
"Due to the Sea of Death Black Sand being extremely dangerous, large movements while mining easily attract powerful monsters or even the Primordial Evil Race, which is why the vein couldn’t be developed."
"After several months of research, the official preparations are now fully ready, so the mining of energy copper has officially started."
Ling Shuiling uttered "Oh" and asked a question, "How many tons of energy copper does this ore vein contain?"
Yang Fan reported a number, "Based on preliminary exploration, the estimated reserves are between 45 to 46 million tons."
He elaborated, "For various models of super crystal batteries, the average energy copper content is 6%. It’s estimated that it can manufacture 7.5 billion tons of super crystal batteries!"
Ling Shuiling’s eyes instantly widened, and she couldn’t help but say, "The stock price of the Pioneer Alliance is going to surge again!"
In Level 1 Exotic Materials, energy copper belongs to the rare and difficult-to-acquire category.
Previously, all energy copper obtained by Great Xia came from the Celestial Mountain falling from the sky.
Yet the Celestial Mountain doesn’t contain much energy copper, and the total amount refined by Great Xia is less than 8 million tons.
Although Canglan Civilization and Iron Fist Civilization have started trading civilizations, the Iron Fist Race has been digging in the Black Sand Sea for so many years, yet the extracted energy copper is still not much, so it’s hard to acquire through purchase.
This ore vein will greatly ease the supply strain, and once fully mined, related industries within Great Xia will see a surge, not only meeting domestic demand but also allowing for significant exports.
In short—money money money!
For Great Xia, this means a substantial national power boost.
Yang Fan smiled, "While you were showering earlier, the spokesperson for the Pioneer Alliance announced the reserves of the energy copper ore vein, causing the stock price to instantly rise by 30 units."
Ling Shuiling pulled out her phone for a look at the latest stock price, saying, "It’s already at 817 units now!"
The female secretary sighed, "I remember a month ago it was 650 units, and in just a month it’s risen by nearly 170 units. This stock is like a golden egg-laying hen."
She turned to look at Yang Fan, admiringly said, "You really have good vision!"
She knew very well that on the day of Pioneer Alliance’s listing, her boyfriend took advantage of the stock price drop to buy 500,000 shares, later incrementally increasing holdings by another 500,000 shares, totaling 1 million shares.
Several times during his purchases, she thought the price was too high and might fall back, yet her boyfriend was adamantly investing significant funds to buy shares.
The facts proved her boyfriend’s judgment correct; the value of these 1 million shares now exceeds 800 million Xia Yuan!
Though his net worth is already in the tens of billions, 800 million is still a significant amount.
Yang Fan smiled without saying a word, just watching the TV screen.
Ling Shuiling also looked over.
In the image.
The ripples around the World Gate had already doubled in size, the "woo-woo" sound of the wind emanating from it.
Teams of people entering the ripples wearing Tianfu Craft Series Exoskeleton steadily disappeared.
Ling Shuiling glanced a few times, commenting, "The scale of personnel entering the World Gate this time seems quite large."
Yang Fan nodded, "The host on Great Xia National Television mentioned that the total personnel exceeded 2,500."
"Superpower Users from different countries within the Pioneer Alliance number over 1,000. This marks the largest multinational crossover operation on Canglan Star so far."
Ling Shuiling covered her mouth, laughing, "This is clearly targeting the Carmenia Federation. Their Holy Flame Legion was completely wiped out yesterday, and today the Pioneer Alliance organized a record-breaking large-scale crossover, making the Carmenians face a slap."
Yang Fan responded, "The host mentioned that there was supposed to be an event at Azure Palace, but it was suddenly canceled, and there has been no news from Azure Palace today."
After a few seconds.
Ling Shuiling found it a bit tedious and began to act restlessly.
Yang Fan felt his foot being nudged and glared at the female secretary, "Haven’t you had enough?"
Ling Shuiling quickly withdrew her foot, giving a charming smile, "Enough, enough! I still feel a bit weak."
Perhaps having been thoroughly nourished earlier, her smile exuded irresistible charm.
Yang Fan glanced at her, faintly sensed something but didn’t dare to be certain.
The female secretary cleverly switched the topic, "By the way, two months ago the Great Xia Intelligent Transportation Group went public to raise funds; you seemed to have bought quite a bit of stock."
She recalled, "I remember the price was 12 Xia Yuan back then, without any purchasing restrictions, and you spent 60 million to buy 5 million shares."
Yang Fan stared at her unblinkingly, "If you smile like you did earlier again, I’ll give you the answer."
Ling Shuiling was a bit puzzled, "Why?"
Yang Fan said nothing, just continued to gaze at her.
The female secretary compromised, "Alright then."
She prepared herself and once again displayed a seductive smile.
Yang Fan shook his head, not quite satisfied, "Not alluring enough!"
Ling Shuiling found Uncle Yang difficult to please, but since he made such a request, she could only oblige.
The female secretary recalled the earlier oohs and ahs, her face blushing slightly as her eyes turned a bit dreamy, her lips curving upward.
She adjusted her bath towel, the half-covered posture amplifying the allure multiple times.
This was almost bewitching.
Any normal man witnessing this would be hard-pressed not to be moved.
Yang Fan was no exception, feeling a warmth in his heart.
But he didn’t do anything, instead quietly grasping the Soul Stealing Wisp, feeling a slight coolness from it immediately.
This confirmed his earlier suspicion.
Ling Shuiling adjusted her bath towel and asked, "Uncle Yang, satisfied?"
Yang Fan remained silent, but the expression in his eyes as he gazed at his girlfriend was unusual.
The female secretary was puzzled, "What’s the matter?"
Yang Fan spoke with certainty, "You’re probably about to awaken your superpower traits!"
Ling Shuiling exclaimed with surprise and delight, "Really?"
Yang Fan replied, "I’m absolutely not mistaken."
Not only is the female secretary on the verge of awakening superpower traits, but she is likely to awaken her superpower in due time.
Incidentally, she had been cultivating the fourth path of the Six Paths of Canglan, Path of Non Action, and had shown some minor progress, but was still far from awakening superpower traits.
Yang Fan never expected such an extraordinary thing to happen to his girlfriend.
Ling Shuiling touched her lower abdomen, her mind racing, "Could this be related to your successful seeding?"
Yang Fan nodded, "It’s somewhat related."
Ling Shuiling was astonished, "This works too?!"
Yang Fan added, "What we do usually might have more impact."
The female secretary genuinely felt her eyes open wide, "Wow, so sleeping with you can awaken superpowers."
Yang Fan acknowledged, "Consider it a sleep-born superpower."
He thought it over carefully, believing it to be a degree of ’one person attaining the way, elevating all around them.’
His soul power was extremely strong, and if the physical intimacy was harmonious, it could lead to a slight soul connection.
Given that their encounters were always very harmonious, the female secretary’s soul frequently received strong soul power stimulation, and over time, gradually mutated.
Ling Shuiling persisted, "What kind of superpower will I awaken?"
Yang Fan smiled, "You should be able to guess."
He had asked the female secretary to smile seductively earlier as a clear hint.
Ling Shuiling tentatively asked, "Could it be a fox spirit? Someone told my fortune when I was young, saying I’d grow up to be a fox spirit."
Yang Fan was speechless, "You’re overthinking."
The female secretary pondered for a moment, then asked, "A succubus!"
Yang Fan finally nodded, "Correct!"
Ling Shuiling shrieked and lunged at him, starting to nibble gleefully.
After some playful antics.
Yang Fan pushed his girlfriend away slightly and wiped the saliva from his face.
Ling Shuiling curiously asked, "What effects does the succubus superpower have?"
Yang Fan answered, "Your Spiritual Power can stimulate others’ desires, gradually enhance your beauty, and with sufficient superpower development can mentally control others."
Ling Shuiling heard "enhance beauty" and couldn’t stop grinning widely.
She had already noticed a great improvement in her skin quality, and previously thought it was due to a harmonious balance of yin and yang, but it was clearly a result of the superpower potential’s effects.
The female secretary reveled for a while, her eyes shining as she gazed at her boyfriend, "I feel like you’re like the Tang Monk meat from Journey to the West!"
She lightly performed an ancient maiden’s etiquette, sweetly saying, "Brother Tang Monk, the beautiful scenery shouldn’t be wasted, why don’t we make good things happen between us?"
