I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

Just like Jiang Chen expected, the Ye family and the Liu family came to see him about the difficulty of establishing a nuclear fusion power station. After hearing the need to use helium 3 on the moon as a nuclear material, they stopped the conversation, and instead asked if Future Group had any research on controllable fusion.

If helium 3 and deuterium fusion were second-generation nuclear fusion power generation technologies, then deuterium tritium was first-generation technology. Although the nuclear waste produced was difficult to manage, the advantage was that all the raw materials could be obtained from the ocean without relying on importing from Celestial Trade.

The two countries were related by blood, but they were not without reservations.

Hua would not allow the necessary energy in the country to rely on foreign imports, especially if it were monopolized by one party unless there was no better choice.

Jiang Chen also wouldn’t sell the information on the first generation nuclear fusion technology as that was his cash cow. So, he euphemistically told Liu Xiangguo that Future Group had no research on the controllable fusion between deuterium and tritium.

Regardless if Liu Xiangguo’s believes it or not, there was nothing he could do even if he doesn’t believe it.

Just as Future Group made a splash in the community arena because of “long-distance wireless transmission” and “controllable nuclear fusion”. When countries re-examined the bilateral relationship with Xin, another big news captured the headlines.

At 9:00 pm Paris time on April 7, 2019, EU Foreign Minister suddenly announced that EU will no longer be a collective but will be a united and become a powerful single entity.

Or, a country.

On the sandy beaches north of Coro Island, a private island surrounded by beaches and palm trees was situated there. An elegant and chic wooden mansion was located in the middle of the island. Under the rising sun in the horizon, everything looked like it was gilded by a layer of gold.

Occasionally, Jiang Chen chose to come here for a holiday or to relax.

On the morning of April 1st, after the long-distance power transmission start-up ceremony and the afternoon speech, he flew here by helicopter with Ayesha and Xia Shiyu. Now, it was the third day of their holiday.

If nothing else, the entire Coro Island should now be filled with high-level officials, countless foreign journalists, and experts and scholars in the scientific community from all over the world… These people all wanted to see him, but Jiang Chen obviously wouldn’t be making their wish come true. The best way to deal with the problem was to give yourself a vacation, wait for the international community to lose interest, and then make further plans.

But what Jiang Chen didn’t think was that it all came so fast.

In the living room of the mansion, watching the EU Foreign Minister speaking on TV, Jiang Chen was pondering.

Originally, Natasha also planned to come here for a vacation, but because of this event, she had to fly back to Moscow overnight.

Jiang Chen closed his eyes and carefully recalled. When she left, her expression seemed stern? And she seems to have said, “Since the Cold War, the entire Eastern Europe has not been so close to the edge of war…

Why?

It was only a decision within the EU. Was this necessarily related to war?

Jiang Chen closed his eyes and pondered for a long time. With only limited intelligence, he could not analyze the situation.

Ghost Agents had been working with KGB for a long time in Frankberg, but there was no good news, which also made him feel a bit anxious. The situation seemed to be moving in an unexpected direction, but he couldn’t get a reference from the future because the two worlds were not on the same line.

Just then, Ayesha in a swimsuit, brought milk and freshly baked bakeries to Jiang Chen. Sitting timidly next to Jiang Chen, Ayesha kissed him on the cheek and spoke softly.

“Eat something first.”

With his brows no longer furrowed, Jiang Chen smiled and kissed her on the cheek. “Mhmm.”

“Public display of affection in the morning?” Xia Shiyu, wearing pajamas, walked out of the bedroom and brushed her hair back. She looked at the Ayesha sticking next to Jiang Chen in only a swimsuit and pouted in jealousy.

Of course, she was not really jealous.

After half-year of “co-existing”, she seemed to be accustomed to the three-person life. This aspect was due to Ayesha’s view and character, and the two live harmoniously.

On the other hand, it was purely because of Jiang Chen’s desire which made it harder and harder to meet his demand…

“Do you want one too?”

Jiang Chen, with a smug smile, moved his face closer.

“Screw you!”

Xia Shiyu got closer to Jiang Chen’s face and “viciously” bite his ear. After listening to the “painful cry” that he faked, she turned around to the washroom with satisfaction.

After breakfast together, the three went to the beach, set up a parasol, moved over a cold drink cart and beach chairs, and spread a beach mat on the sand.

The morning sun was not hot, with the salty sea breeze, there was even a cool hint of air.

Lying on the beach mat, Xia Shiyu accepted Jiang Chen caressing hand against her body as she applied sunscreen for him. Then she lied facedown on the beach mat and lazily basked in the sun while leisurely watching Ayesha and Jiang Chen run to the sea.

“I have been too lazy recently,” Xia Shiyu whispered, her fingers slid gently down on her wrist and a light blue light prism spread out. The boot screen of Future phone appeared.

Although she was on vacation, she was the CEO of Future Group, and she habitually checked her work emails every morning and evening

When she opened Jean Office, Xia Shiyu got closer to her straw and took a sip as she looked at the work email and picked up the emails that needed to be replied to.

“The lunar colony has discovered rare earth deposits, and the reserves of rare earth elements such as lanthanum and cerium are about three million tons or more…” Seeing this, Xia Shiyu was astonished

Because the subsidiaries of Future Group were involved in the mining industry, she still knre about the market of rare earths. As a rare earth exporting country, Hua’s rare earth reserves accounts for 36% of the world’s proven reserves, which was 36 million tons.

What is the concept of three million tons?

India’s rare earth reserves were 3.1 million tons, ranking fifth in the world. The mineral deposits found in the lunar colony were almost compared the rare earth reserves throughout India.

“No wonder they said the moon is a giant lump of gold. This is not even gold. This is worth more than gold.” Xia Shiyu moved her lips and thought for a while, and gave instructions in the email, annotating this message as B Class Confidential and entered it into Future Group’s date base.

Now because of nuclear fusion power generation, there were already too many eyes focusing on Future Group and Celestial. At this time, the lunar colony’s discovery of a rare earth deposit would only draw some people to take action.

Slow down the pace of announcements and release it once mining starts.

Just as Xia Shiyu tossed the message aside and looked down the list, an email suddenly caught her attention.
