Chapter 43 (1/2)

After having sent the two men, Huang Xuan clapped on his own head and said, ”Rolin, I think we have forgotten something very important.”

”Oh?”

”We have forgotten to prepare a warehouse in P112. Can we put the goods in the plane pa.s.sage after we go back? The weather of Brazil isn't like that of the North Pole. The meat will all go bad easily then.”

”It will be OK for you to go back as long as the hours are fewer than 84.”

”I'm not sure whether it will be enough.” Huang Xuan closed the door to the warehouse resignedly. Instantly, all the meat went into the pa.s.sage. ”After we go back, should all this be put in a freezer? How shall we find someone to carve it up?”

”I can take care of the carving. As to the freezer, it's your job.” Rolin didn't show much care. ”If need be, you can get in touch with P112 now.”

”Right now? Contact another plane?”

”It's just a matter of energy consumption,” Rolin said naturally. But Huang Xuan felt surprised and less tired. ”Then whom should I contact first?”

Rolin soon made a form of the people Huang Xuan knew and displayed it in front of him on a semi-transparent and advanced-looking screen, the background of which was transparent, but the characters were clear enough to read. Besides, since it was energy projection, which was formed by lights, it could be read only from the right angle and distance. Otherwise, it would be just a proof of the Tyndall Effect.1At the same time, on the earth, when the angle and distance were determined, the location was determined. In other words, n.o.body could see the screen unless his or her eyeb.a.l.l.s overlapped Huang Xuan's.

Rolin had many excellent ”private collections”, which he would only use on the condition that the energy was full, and it was used to get more energy. Huang Xuan thought Rolin was a total merchant, to whom interest was everything.

In the afternoon in Brazil, when the sun shone brightly, the most common evergreen plants, flowers, and trees in America could be seen, but with one more specificity of Sao Paulo: the endless traffic jams.

In Sao Paulo, the streets were like huge parking lots where the cars kept changing s.p.a.ces and s.h.i.+fting gears. G.o.d knew after how many times Zhang Rong had repeated that process, he stepped on the brake hard and pulled out the key.

It seemed that he would be late for the meeting. He took his phone out as he decided to put the meeting off. No wonder Brazil was the most unpunctual country in the world. With some experience on the lanes, one would understand that in that country, punctuality was abnormal and being late was usual.

His phone started to vibrate while he was going to call his secretary.

The caller's ID wasn't displayed. Zhang Rong pressed the answer b.u.t.ton and wore the earplugs. ”h.e.l.lo. Who is it?”

”Is that Uncle Zhang? This is Huang Xuan.”

”Oh!” Zhang Rong was surprised. ”Huang gongzi2. How can I help you?”

”It's er…” Huang Xuan sounded hesitant. ”I have bought some aquatic products which will arrive soon, but the freezer has gone wrong. Could you please recommend one to me?”

Zhang Rong kept responding ”Oh” on the phone, but he was thinking fast: ”It will be more appropriate to find Shengfeng Company to deal with it, but now that Huang Xuan has come to me, it proves that he prefers a.s.sociating with me or Xihuang Industrial Company.”

”Huang gongzi, how big a freezer do you need? How soon are the goods arriving?”

”12,000 tons.” That was Rolin's calculation according to the prices, including the whales, shrimps, and fish. Then Huang Xuan raised his voice and said, ”The goods are arriving tomorrow morning. It's all set. Just tell me the location of the freezer then.”

Zhang Rong held the steering wheel and said in embarra.s.sment, ”It's a little pressing.” After a short pause, he continued, ”Please wait for my good news, Huang gongzi. How can I reach you?”

”Please call me Huang Xuan.” Huang Xuan chuckled. ”I will contact you tomorrow.”

”OK.”

Zhang Rong exhaled deeply after having hung up the phone. Xihuang Industrial Company was the biggest shareholder of Docas Company. As a port company, they certainly had a lot of resources, but it was much too demanding to find a freezer with an accommodation of 10,000 tons.
