Chapter: 3077

He paused for a moment before continuing, "According to what I've heard, some high-ranking officials require tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years' worth of dragon's saliva to use in their medicine."

"But this stuff is simply too rare and the only way to find it is by going to the bottom of the deep sea," he said.

"This is because humans didn't have the ability to kill whales back then. After the whales died, they sank to the bottom of the sea and formed whale falls, which were then eaten away by marine life. The dragon's saliva was buried in the sediment at the bottom of the sea."

"It's extremely difficult to find a piece of dragon's saliva that has been buried for tens of thousands of years or more. The difficulty is comparable to finding a needle in the deep sea. As a result, almost no one can do it. The dragon's saliva fossils discovered in the past are said to be due to geological movements that melted them into rock layers millions of years ago and only reappeared recently."

Ye Chen's heart was filled with joy if this piece of dragon's saliva really could reach the level of fossilization. Then, at least, it would have a history of tens of thousands of years or more!

"This piece of dragon's saliva has been well received by Ye Chen, and he looked at Ma Chengxing with a sense that this old codger was slightly more agreeable than before."

"So, he began to speak: 'From tonight onwards, you and Ma Ke will stay in White Golden Palace. I'll arrange for someone to prepare a room for you, provide lavish meals three times a day, as well as other daily necessities. However, the only condition is that you cannot contact the outside world or leave White Golden Palace on your own.'"

"As he said this, Ye Chen added one more sentence: 'This is also my best solution for you, believe me, White Golden Palace is much more comfortable than a dog breeding farm.'"

Ma Chengxing dared not refuse and could only respectfully bow his head and say: "All shall be done according to Lord Ye's instructions..."

Ye Chen nodded, and then made a phone call to Chen Ze Kai. About 15 minutes later, Chen Ze Kai arrived by helicopter.

Chen Ze Kai left two of his subordinates to handle the taxi that Ye Chen had called, and then took Ye Chen and Ma Chengxing away from Phoenix Mountain.

After delivering Ye Chen back to Tou Shen Yin Pin, Chen Ze Kai brought Ma Chengxing back to White Golden Palace. He found a room in the closed administrative area, arranged for both of them to stay there, and confiscated their phones. The phone in the room was also disconnected, cutting off all contact with the outside world.

After returning home, Ye Chen stored the dragon's saliva in the underground storage room of Tou Shen Yin Pin, waiting for other medicinal materials to be prepared before starting to refine Beiyuan Dan.

The next day at dawn, another rumor spread throughout Jinling.

It was said that last night, a sudden lightning strike hit Phoenix Mountain Cemetery. Someone confidently claimed that the lightning struck a car and both the driver and the car were blown to dust.

Some people also said that last night's lightning was a punishment from heaven for a demon who had committed murder beforehand.

There were even some people saying that last night, the Yellow Lady was passing judgment at Phoenix Mountain Cemetery.

Regardless, various rumors and speculations kept emerging nonstop.

However, Ye Chen didn't pay much attention to these.

He was thinking about his own meeting with Gao Zhiqiu at Emperor's Mansion Group, so he early sent Xiao Churan to Emperor's Mansion Hotel's construction site and drove himself to Emperor's Mansion Group.

Wang Dongxue had already been waiting for him.

Gao Zhiqiu arrived first at Emperor's Mansion Group, after which she was immediately invited into Wang Dongxue's office.

Wang Dongxue didn't recognize Gao Zhiqiu, but knew that she was Ye Chen's trusted assistant and also the daughter of Professor Gao from Jinling Financial University.

In the end, both people will be working for Ye Chen, although they may not have any hierarchical relationship between each other. As they will be responsible for different tasks in the future, Wang Dongxue still hopes to establish a good relationship with her and strive to work together as Ye Chen's right-hand man.

Gao Zhiqiu, despite graduating from a top-notch university, lacked actual working experience, which was why she felt a deep respect when seeing Wang Dongxue, a woman who had built an enterprise worth billions through her own efforts. Moreover, she didn't expect Wang Dongxue to be so young. JrNovels.com
