Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System-Chapter 609 - 565: Reciprocity

"Put the job you’re holding on hold for now. I’ll arrange a special procurement department to assist you later.

From now on, you’ll be responsible for coordinating with Lin Xiaozhi. Who else could manage this kid’s antics? I wouldn’t trust anyone else."

After Mu Yunrou asked this question, the old man looked at his beloved granddaughter and answered.

Then he simultaneously glanced at Lin Yi, smiling but saying nothing.

However, the meaning was clear enough, as if telling Lin Yi that he’d already done more than enough.

Understanding the reasoning, Lin Yi naturally appreciated the old man’s sincere intentions.

At the same time, he gave the old man a grateful smile, but suddenly a thought popped into his mind:

"Hehe, since you’re so sincere, I’d feel bad not offering something in return."

Saying this, Lin Yi paused slightly, revealing a mysterious smile.

He glanced left and right, seemingly checking if anyone was around, which amused the old man. He pointed at Lin Yi in jest and said with a smile:

"What are you looking at? You brat, this is my office. Do you think someone could actually eavesdrop here?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi gave an embarrassed smile. He certainly knew that the safest place was indeed where he was at the moment.

So, he smiled and scratched his head, leaning in slightly toward the old man:

"Well, I actually have a research result in hand, but the source is a bit shady. I wonder if you’re interested?"

The old man was instantly taken aback.

He hadn’t expected Lin Yi to say something like that, and his mind pondered what Lin Yi might be referring to by using the word ’shady source.’

We must know, although the Zao nuclear group has many research outcomes nowadays, every item has been reviewed by himself.

Not only that, but the vast Zao nuclear group is under the old man’s control.

At the very least, every move by the group is monitored by designated personnel.

This can be considered both protection and surveillance.

After all, a massive Huaxia can’t allow any bad signs to appear.

If Lin Yi hadn’t shaped the Zao nuclear group into its current form, people would have already contacted Lin Yi.

Of course, it’s not to say no one has contacted him—Ouyang Lei is an example.

Why are Ouyang Lei and Lin Yi so close? Why are the Ouyang Family and Lin Yi so intimate?

It’s not just as simple as it seems on the surface, as they are also overseeing Lin Yi.

Of course, as long as Lin Yi doesn’t self-destruct or cross certain lines, he can definitely walk proudly in Huaxia.

However, under such heavy observation, the old man didn’t anticipate what Lin Yi intended to say to him.

He couldn’t fathom what thing Lin Yi considered important enough to approach him.

Since Lin Yi could present himself so, it indicated that this matter was far from simple.

And its significance likely matched the gift the old man had just given Lin Yi.

After all, it’s about reciprocity. If not at a certain level, Lin Yi’s disclosure would only be laughable.

"Alright, you rascal, stop keeping me in suspense. Just say it.

Do you think there’s anything I wouldn’t dare to have?

As long as you dare to bring it out, even if it’s planes, cannons, or aircraft carriers, I dare to own it."

The old man spoke with remarkable confidence, which Lin Yi didn’t doubt at all, and it was indeed the case.

If the old man didn’t dare to take it, then truly no one would.

Joking aside, the old man could withstand any storm.

But when the old man uttered the last line, Lin Yi was clearly taken aback, stopping completely, looking at the old man with some disbelief.

And seeing Lin Yi’s demeanor, the old man also paused, asking cautiously and probing:

"What’s that expression? Did I guess right? It’s really planes and cannons?

What’s the deal? You rascal even researched military achievements?

This stuff requires advance reporting and layers of approval, without proper qualifications, it’s not permitted."

Facing the old man’s inquiry, Lin Yi could only force a smile and shake his head, knowing he might have overthought, and the other party didn’t know what he intended to bring out:

"Oh, you startled me. I thought you’d been monitoring me all along.

That thing isn’t planes or cannons. It’s much larger than them, but you mentioned it just now."

Upon hearing this, the old man slightly furrowed his brow, pondering Lin Yi’s words, unsure what Lin Yi meant.

What did he just say? Planes, cannons, and what else?

Then suddenly, Mu Yunrou let out a surprising shout from the side.

She covered her mouth in shock, staring at Lin Yi with wide eyes.

Seeing this, the old man directed his gaze at his granddaughter, asking with some confusion:

"Do you know what he’s trying to bring out?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Mu Yunrou nodded at first, then shook her head:

"I know, uh, I don’t know, I don’t know."

Immediately, the old man felt irritated, furrowed his brow a bit, glanced at his granddaughter, then at Lin Yi, and pointed at the pair:

"What are you two trying to keep me guessing?

Just say it, what’s the thing?

If you don’t speak up soon, I’ll take back what I just said."

At this moment, Mu Yunrou softly began to speak:

"Grandpa, you mentioned planes and cannons, and aircraft carriers just now..."

Saying this, she stopped, directing a puzzled gaze at Lin Yi, clearly asking if her guess was correct, whether it’s that thing.

And seeing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but give her a thumbs up.

Expressing his full admiration, he hadn’t expected the girl to be so intelligent, inferring what he was about to say from his words.

Lin Yi’s raised thumb and his smiling expression also confirmed for the old man that his granddaughter’s guess was likely what this brat Lin Yi wanted to say.
