Lu Liang drove fast, passing through one main road after another, and had entered the mountains.
"Brother Liang, where are we now? I feel like we're about to leave Myan City."
"I don't know. How about we check the map?"
Lu Liang said, stopping the car, then opening his phone to find the navigation.
"We're about to enter the Hpakkan mining area."
Yu'er's voice sounded in his mind again: "Master, I'm feeling clearer. We should be there soon."
"Mm. Then let's keep going," Guo Xuyang said to Lu Liang.
"Straight to the Hpakkan mining area, let's see if there are any more big finds."
"Alright. If I find another high-quality rough stone, I'll be financially free too."
Lu Liang said, starting the car again.
"Brother Liang, with your current capital, you can completely live a life of leisure.
I remember Bruce saying in Bashi that you don't need to take any more risks now."
"Living a life of leisure and achieving financial freedom are two different things, aren't they? Living a life of leisure means not worrying about food or clothing.
Achieving financial freedom means living as you please, buying whatever you want, going wherever you want to play.
My strength isn't enough for financial freedom yet. Yours is closer."
Guo Xuyang didn't respond. If it was as Lu Liang said, he had already achieved financial freedom.
But he didn't know that his superpower was still waiting to be upgraded.
This superpower was a money pit, and tens of billions wouldn't be enough.
Perhaps finding the Angel's Eye this time would allow him to fully upgrade his superpower.
After all, he had won so many rough stones at the public auction and received an additional 2.6 billion Euros.
Coupled with the jade rough stones he had collected from Wu Min's manor, it should be enough.
Lu Liang saw that Guo Xuyang hadn't spoken for a while and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about where I'll go if I achieve financial freedom."
"Where?"
"I want to see outer space, see the vastness of the stars."
"Wow, your ideas are much better than mine. I was just thinking of traveling around the world."
"Weren't you traveling all over the world before? Haven't you had enough?"
"Before, there were fixed routes around the world; I couldn't just go wherever I wanted.
Either I was escorting ships or delivering goods to jewelry stores in various places. It wasn't that free."
"You're much better than me. If I hadn't gone to South Africa and Bashi with you last time, I wouldn't even have stepped out of the country."
"Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles.
Young people today read a lot but few truly go out. They know too little about social experience and some wilderness survival skills.
Unlike you, brother, who has built such a large fortune at such a young age."
"It's a special situation for me, isn't it? If I didn't have this cheat tool, I'd still be selling houses in the county town."
"I heard from Boss Jiang that you still have several real estate companies in the provincial capital?"
"Those were all given to me by President Cheng. I don't have the energy to manage them; they still belong to President Cheng.
I basically never asked about them. I just kept two King Villas for myself in the company.
That is, the large warehouses we prepared for purchasing rough stones this time."
"Then you have foresight. If we were to look for such large warehouses now, we might not find them for a while."
"You're right. Last time I wanted to set up a jade company in Kyoto, I didn't consider the rough stone warehouse at all.
If Li Ziyu hadn't intervened, the jade company would have been established. Just the rough stone warehouse would have given me a headache."
"What's that saying, 'A fortunate person has no worries, an unfortunate person's heart is broken.'
Li Ziyu thought he had cut off your financial path, but he didn't expect to have completed you instead.
What do you think, would he be extremely frustrated if he knew about this?"
While they were talking about Li Ziyu, Li Ziyu was indeed very frustrated.
He thought Guo Xuyang had really chickened out and completely given up on establishing a jade company in Kyoto.
But through Su Ran, he learned that Guo Xuyang had already registered the Shiquan Shimei Myan City Jade Specialty Franchise Co., Ltd. in the provincial capital.
This made him feel like spitting blood.
He would have preferred Guo Xuyang to set up the company in Kyoto.
That way, he could have interfered whenever he wanted.
Now, it was a company established in the provincial capital, completely out of his reach.
Let alone interfering, even visiting it wasn't easy.
Moreover, it was his own territory.
If he really tried to reach out, he wouldn't gain any benefit.
Guo Xuyang, of course, didn't know Li Ziyu's thoughts. He and Lu Liang chatted as they drove straight to the Hpakkan mining area.
The Hpakkan mining area is a historical famous pit, with the earliest exploitation time.
Hpakkan rough stones have thin skin, mainly gray-white and yellowish-white.
The crystals are fine, the texture is good, the transparency is high, the color is full, and the size is large, ranging from a few kilograms to hundreds of kilograms.
Old Hpakkan is famous for producing black-skinned rough stones that are as black as coal, known as black wusha.
The current mining depth has reached over twenty meters, and the jade rough stones produced are quite different from before.
The characteristic is that the outer skin is relatively thin and tight, often gray-brown, gray-black, and other colors, some with a black wax shell.
The closer Guo Xuyang got to the Hpakkan mining area, the more agitated the Demon Eye in his mind became.
When they arrived at the Hpakkan mining area where jade rough stones were being excavated, Yu'er's voice rang out.
"Master, the Angel's Eye is very close to you, you need to find it yourself."
Guo Xuyang asked Lu Liang to stop the car and walked himself to the vicinity of the Hpakkan mining area.
He released his senses, concentrated his gaze, and scanned into the distance.
Less than a thousand meters away, a huge rough stone, like a piece of coal, caught his attention.
This rough stone was shiny black all over, like a person's black eyeball.
No wonder the Demon Eye was agitated?
The radiance emanating from this rough stone was unbearable to look at directly, giving a sense of oppression, like a sword of justice.
"Receive," Guo Xuyang silently recited.
Huh? The rough stone didn't move? What was going on?
This was the first time the system had malfunctioned.
"Yu'er, why can't I receive the rough stone?"
"Master, your method is wrong. You need to take out the Demon Eye and place it into your eye, and the Angel's Eye will naturally be received by you."
Nani? The Demon Eye was so big, how could it be placed into his eye? Guo Xuyang was stunned.
He looked back at Lu Liang, then at Jie Linna, and then walked towards the Hpakkan pit.
Only when he could no longer see the two of them did he take out the Demon Eye.
When he held the Demon Eye in his hand, he could actually feel it trembling.
No wonder Yu'er said that using the Demon Eye required the Angel's Eye to assist; it turned out that evil could not overcome good.
He brought the Demon Eye close to his right eye and stared intently at the Demon Eye.
He found that the Demon Eye was like a bottomless abyss; he wanted to leap into it, but the sliver of clarity in his mind controlled him.
Seeing the Demon Eye become smaller and smaller, it directly drilled into his eye.
His eye stung, and he hurriedly closed his eyes. Tears streamed down uncontrollably.
When he opened his eyes again, he found that there were countless souls struggling within the Hpakkan pit.
They seemed to be about to crawl out at any moment, which startled him.
This time, he didn't need to concentrate his gaze to see the Angel's Eye in the distance.
"Receive," he silently recited.
The Angel's Eye instantly appeared in his mind.
