Chapter 20: Chapter 20 Setting the Time

"Do as she says," said Yan Mo.

"Yes," Chen Bing nodded.

His driving skills were second only to the boss in the team; shaking someone off was a breeze for him.

Not long after, Xia Yu was shook off and couldn’t see the vehicle Xia Yue was in.

Xia Yu was furious and had to take Xia Xi home first.

At this time, Xia Yue arrived at the previous conference room with Yan Mo and Chen Bing.

This time, in addition to Chief Wei, there were several other people present.

When Chief Wei saw them coming, he invited them to sit down.

Then, he slid a contract to Xia Yue, telling her that this was a transfer of ownership document for the mountains and the sea, and if there were no issues with the agreement stated within, she could sign it directly.

Xia Yue flipped through the contract, where the parties A and B were detailed as well as a key clause stating a price of one hundred yuan. The contract covered a deserted village by the sea in Linzhou City and its surrounding mountainous land of 34,882 acres, along with a seaward extension of a hundred thousand square meters, all of which would belong to her.

Without any hesitation, Xia Yue flipped to the end of the contract and signed her name.

Even if she had thought it through, what difference would it make? After all, as long as the country wants to exchange items they desire within her system, there would be no hurry to mistreat her.

"Okay, how do I make the payment?" After signing, Xia Yue moved the contract in front of Chief Wei.

"Thank you for your trust, just swipe this." To ensure that the transaction was compliant, they had prepared a payment terminal.

Xia Yue nodded and, following their instructions, paid the hundred yuan.

[Congratulations on completing your first task.]

[Congratulations on obtaining a packet of high-quality strawberry seeds, a hundred high-quality peach trees, and an energy activation stone.]

"I have completed my first task." After hearing the system’s voice inside her head, Xia Yue told Chief Wei and the others. She also informed them of the rewards she had received.

"What is this energy activation stone?" They were able to understand the first two rewards, but not the last one.

"Let me ask the system." Xia Yue also didn’t understand, so she had to ask the system.

[The energy activation stone can activate the abilities within you, similar to the Spiritual Roots of Wood, Fire, Water, Earth, and Gold in the cultivation novels you have written, and to some extent, it can also activate your bloodline traits.] The system explained with a simple analogy.

Then, Xia Yue relayed what the system had told her to Chief Wei and the others.

[This can only be used in your territory. It will not work anywhere else.] The system added another comment.

Xia Yue again relayed this to Chief Wei.

Although the fact that this could only be used within her territory was not very convenient, Chief Wei, who had originally thought of cultivating special talents with this, allowed people to go there nonetheless.

"What is the second task?" Yan Mo asked.

[The second task will only appear once you have reached your territory. You should go there as soon as possible.] The system advised.

Xia Yue updated them on the situation.

Afterward, they discussed the timing of their departure and the things they need to prepare.

Chief Wei gave them an initial five million yuan fund, with further funds to be provided according to their needs.

After confirming their departure dates and deciding what personnel and items to bring, they all conveyed their readiness.

Xia Yue only paid attention to the departure date and meeting place. The rest she did not listen to attentively. As they continued discussing with fervor, she lowered her head to check her phone.

Xia Yu had sent her several messages in a row, asking who she had left with, where she had gone, when she would be back, and so forth.

Looking at the messages, Xia Yue felt somewhat dizzy. Considering that she will leave Kyoto soon, she didn’t mind the reactions of others, but she definitely had to tell him.

There were also her grandparents, as well as her second aunt and third aunt.
