The scenery changed and the repressive atmosphere instantly vanished.
Interdimensional travel took him to Coconut Island.
As part of his routine, he confirmed that there were no calls before he headed to the beach.
The two construction robots were still working meticulously on the construction site. After he checked their progress on the tablet, Jiang Chen let them be and boarded his boat. He took out the backup oil canister and filled up the boat before he soared to Coro Island.
It was deep into the night; only a few scattered lights were visible in the city center.
Jiang Chen didn't immediately return to his mansion when he got off the boat. Instead, he drove to a gas station at the southern end of the island.
When Jiang Chen parked beside a self-serving pump, he honked a few times.
Immediately after, the employee working the night shift walked out.
The man in uniform rubbed his eyes while walking out sluggishly. He had been taking a nap.
Most of the citizens in Xin were bilingual. Kebal glanced at Jiang Chen in the car, yawned, put his hand on the roof, and spoke in annoyance.
”How much do you want to add?”
”As much as possible.”
Kebal took a moment to process what he just heard and tugged on his mustache.
”How much?”
Jiang Chen didn't want to waste words on him as he took out a stack of cash and slapped it onto his car hood. ”2000 USD. Please prepare a few barrels for me.”
Just in case, he usually kept some cash in the storage dimension.
2000 USD?!
Kebal was instantly awake. He didn't move, but he looked suspiciously at Jiang Chen.
”2000 USD? Why do you need so much gasoline?”
He had to ask because Xin wasn't completely at peace, which made everyone uneasy. If he sold this much gasoline and someone used it for terrorism, he would be the one to blame.
Even if selling this much gasoline would get him more commission at the month's end, he was afraid to sell this much right now!
Jiang Chen let out a sigh, took out the Presidential Palace document and waved it in front of him.
”It's not good for you to ask too many questions, buddy.”
Kebal took a look at the document and all his suspicions disappeared. To be able to freely enter the Xin Presidential Palace, this guy was definitely not a terrorist and likely working for the president.
”The barrels are in the warehouse, wait a moment.” Kebal handed the document back to Jiang Chen before he jogged to the warehouse.
”Wait, do you have a truck here?” Jiang Chen stuck his head out the window and stopped him.
Kebal shook his head. ”No, but my pickup truck that I use is there.”
”Okay, what's your name?”
Kebal paused.
”Kebal. Why?”
”Mr. Kebal, do you want to make 1000 USD?” Jiang Chen put his hand in his pocket and pulled out another stack of cash with a smile.
