Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm

Ling Shuiling revealed the latest proposal: "For the newly established ’Sirius Agricultural Company,’ its valuation is set at 200 trillion Xia Yuan.

"Chairman Yang personally holds 60% of the shares, while the Silver Group jointly invests 10 trillion funds and transfers shares of ’Xingtian Industry’ valued at 70 trillion, occupying 40% of the shares."

The so-called "Xingtian Industry" is the company manufacturing exoskeletons, which was originally part of the Great Xia Weapons Industry Group before it was spun off and became a new company.

Due to the exoskeleton’s worldwide popularity and significant exports to the Iron Fist Civilization, its market value has skyrocketed to a staggering 420 trillion Xia Yuan.

Xingtian Industry is the highest-valued company in human history, further revealing to the Canglan People the potential of civilized trade.

The Silver Group consulted their superiors, who decided to offer 70 trillion worth of Xingtian Industry shares, demonstrating their higher regard for the Body Tempering Liquid over the exoskeleton.

Let me add a few more words.

According to internal estimates of Great Xia, this year, Great Xia’s GDP will account for 60% of the global total, a truly astounding figure.

In contrast, before the Age of Calamity, Great Xia’s GDP made up about 15% of the global total.

Of course, GDP is merely an incremental measure and does not represent stock.

Ling Shuiling extended a fair finger and adjusted her glasses: "This is the final proposal. Are you interested?"

The representatives of the Silver Group collectively shook their heads.

This round of intense negotiations left these people somewhat exhausted.

The only exception was the female secretary, who still appeared energetic.

Previously, she had unexpectedly awakened the superpower trait of a "Succubus" and, with Yang Fan’s help, acquired the superpower trait of a "Thousand-faced Person," making her an extremely rare dual-trait individual.

The power of these two traits had already made her physical constitution different from ordinary people, and such a scene was trivial.

Especially the succubus trait, which greatly enhanced her physical capabilities; without an excellent superpower, how could she become a succubus with strong combat power?

Ling Shuiling concluded with one last sentence: "If that’s the case, let’s end today’s meeting here. Tomorrow, we’ll discuss the structure of the Sirius Company again."

She didn’t bother to bid farewell to the representatives and left the meeting room in high heels, leaving them with an exceptionally graceful silhouette.

A few seconds later.

The middle-aged man said quietly, "This woman has become more beautiful and more difficult to deal with than before."

A representative sighed, "We joined forces, yet we still couldn’t defeat her alone."

Another representative, however, was more focused on her appearance: "Miss Ling is stunningly beautiful; before I met her, I couldn’t believe a woman could be this beautiful."

The middle-aged man kindly reminded them, "You better refrain from discussing Miss Ling herself; her status is different now, and she could have you all kicked out with just one word."

All the representatives fell silent.

In another room.

Ling Shuiling took out her phone and sent a message to her boyfriend: "You are now a two hundred trillion super-duper billionaire; there’s no one wealthier than you on Canglan Star."

She added three "super" words because "billionaire" alone couldn’t capture the magnitude of the wealth.

The female secretary then sent a second message: "From a fortune of hundreds of billions to trillions and then to hundreds of trillions, no one in history has amassed wealth faster than you. How do you feel now?"

Several seconds passed.

A reply came: "I don’t have any feelings about money; it’s just a string of numbers."

Ling Shuiling’s lips curved slightly.

She reached out her left hand to gently touch her slightly rounded belly, whispering, "Your father is a very, very extraordinary man!"

Southern Hemisphere.

Yan Continent.

Since the onset of the Age of Calamity, Yan Continent has struggled to maintain relevance on the international stage.

This doesn’t imply Yan Continent hasn’t suffered from disasters.

Quite the contrary; the calamities Yan Continent has faced have been more severe than those in the East Continent, and due to its severely underdeveloped economy, more people have perished there.

Before the disaster, Yan Continent’s population was 2.1 billion, and as of last month, rough estimates suggest the population may have fallen below 1 billion.

More than half gone!

However, Yan Continent is so underdeveloped that the media isn’t very interested in covering it, leading to its extremely low profile in the media.

To give an example.

Almost three years ago, when the Poisonous Mosquito Calamity broke out, Yan Continent’s largest island, Madaga Island, covering more than 700,000 square kilometers, became the world’s largest breeding ground for Poisonous Mosquitoes.

The biggest without a doubt.

The eastern coast of Madaga Island is littered with swarms of Poisonous Mosquitoes, with over 100 mutant Poisonous Mosquitoes.

This place witnessed one of the most horrifying Poisonous Mosquito swarms on Canglan Star, and almost every human settlement on the east coast was submerged.

When the Poisonous Mosquito calamity subsided, the eastern coast became a deserted area.

Originally, Madaga Island had a population of over 32 million, yet 6 million died during the Poisonous Mosquito calamity, nearly one-fifth of its population.

Almost half of the island’s population crossed the ocean to migrate to the Yan Continent to escape the Poisonous Mosquito calamity.

Over the next two years or so, Madaga Island suffered from various calamities, leaving its population at less than 500,000, a truly dire situation.

About half a year ago.

A fleet from Great Xia arrived at Madaga Island, quietly taking control of Yan Continent’s largest island.

After half a year’s construction, Great Xia People have established six brand-new cities on the island, along with the renovation of five abandoned cities, controlling a total of eleven cities.

More than three million Great Xia People have gradually relocated to Madaga Island.

At this moment.

In the port of Tianya on Madaga Island.

Ha Xiaofu, holding his son, walked up the gangway to the dock with his wife.

He was the first beneficiary of the "Great Xia Bride Plan," marrying a beautiful foreign wife named Erin.

Great Xia implemented a law to increase the population in its overseas-controlled areas by offering high subsidies for immigrants.

For instance, each citizen who moves to Madaga Island can receive a one-time subsidy of up to 30,000 Xia Yuan, and another 3,000 a month for the next three years.

Not only that, the state provides free housing, direct job assignments, and a comprehensive range of welfare, including healthcare, transportation, and food.

The couple discussed for a while, with an eagerness to contribute to Great Xia’s expansion (seeing money at the sight of scales), promptly sold their house to the authorities, and relocated the entire family to Madaga Island.

The announcement on the dock sounded: "Dear passengers, as the weather warms, there are signs of Poisonous Mosquito resurgence. Please make sure to wear mosquito-proof clothing."

Ha Xiaofu habitually checked his daughter’s mosquito-proof clothing, then turned to his wife: "The immigration office is right at the dock; let’s check-in first."

Erin nodded: "Okay!"

The couple blended into the immigrant crowd, following the flow of people, having taken only a few steps before hearing screams.

"Poisonous Mosquitoes!"

"There’s Poisonous Mosquitoes over there!"

Ha Xiaofu looked in the direction of the noise and, with his sharp eyesight, immediately spotted several small white dots quickly approaching.

These were actually Ice Mosquitoes.

A new species that emerged following the cold wave calamity as Poisonous Mosquitoes mutated.

By now, the first generation of Poisonous Mosquitoes on Canglan Star had almost gone extinct, replaced by Ice Mosquitoes more adapted to cold climates.
