Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System-Chapter 686 - 642: Flawed
Even at this time, the other side still hasn't completely relaxed.
They fear Lin Yi might play some trick on them, concerned that apart from this return capsule, there might be another one, and this is just a strategic deception.
I must say, these guys are indeed cunning and cautious enough.
However, they finally felt at ease when the capsule left the lunar orbit and entered the Earth orbit, with no further actions or changes from the moon behind it.
This somewhat relieved them, confirming that there were no other surprises.
Consequently, Xiao Hei immediately issued an order to all carriers to proceed at full speed, directing them to reach the final detected landing location as soon as possible.
Seeing the spacecraft already entering the atmosphere, its final landing point was now unchangeable.
Only then did the Beautiful Country feel completely relieved, simultaneously holding a press conference to announce live-fire exercises in a certain area of the Pacific Ocean.
During this time, no vessels are allowed in; any forces intervening will be considered hostile and no responsibility will be taken for accidental injuries.
Once this news was released, the whole world was in an uproar; no one expected such a move at this time.
Including the old man, who promptly called Lin Yi to ask what on earth was going on.
He asked Lin Yi if the final landing point of the return capsule was indeed in a certain area of the Pacific?
Upon hearing Lin Yi's affirmative response, the old man immediately slapped his thigh and said with irritation:
"These bastards really think they can just push us around like soft persimmons. Alright, leave this matter to me, Lin Xiaozhi, you don't have to worry about the rest."
After saying this, Lin Yi felt quite warm inside.
He also noticed the old man's very decisive attitude; this time, he didn't intend to back down at all but was going to stand his ground completely.
Just as the old man was about to hang up, Lin Yi chuckled, which puzzled the old man:
"I don't know what to say about you, the fact that you can laugh at a time like this.
I must say your attitude is quite good.
Haha, very good, considering your age, having such a mind and calm demeanor is truly commendable.
Haha, I was right about you; keep it up, but next time if something like this happens, make sure you notify me first, and it's not that we can't find a place for landing on our side.
You pick a place, and we'll clear the area for you."
It can be heard that the old man's words are full of guidance, and he shows no resentment towards Lin Yi.
Even though Lin Yi could be said to have caused him quite some trouble this time, the old man still spoke like he was educating a junior.
The main point is, the old man's attitude in speaking did not carry an air of superiority at all, but rather was like a discussion with Lin Yi, which Lin Yi was quite pleased with.
"Old man, please don't get angry, and there's no need to stoop to their level.
Haha, it's not like we have anything we can't discuss, so I'll tell you about this plan. All you have to do is calm down and just watch the show; that return capsule was specially prepared for them."
As soon as these words came out, the old man was puzzled, furrowing his brow slightly:
"Specially prepared for them? What kind of trick are you up to, young man?"
To this, Lin Yi didn't hide anything and directly explained the truth to the old man:
"Oh, let me tell you straight, old man, I put a lot of effort into that spacecraft.
I specifically had the robots on it modify it such that after the friction with the atmosphere, some incident would occur, ensuring it wouldn't safely land on the ground."
Upon hearing this, the old man immediately said:
"Won't safely land on the ground, you mean the spacecraft will disintegrate in mid-air?"
Lin Yi had to give a thumbs-up to the old man's guess.
The old man is really quick to grasp, and I hadn't expected just from saying one thing that it won't safely land, he understood my plan.
"You mean, after disintegration they won't even get a wreck, leaving them fruitless and turning them into a global laughingstock?"
However, the latter half of the old man's words made Lin Yi shake his head helplessly, thinking to himself that the old man is indeed clever, but it's not exactly what he'd planned.
But thinking it through made it clearer; who would imagine being able to use such means?
Knowing that deploying such tactics comes at a substantial cost, with the value of just one return capsule being inestimable through money.
"Haha, old man, you guessed half right; indeed, by then the spacecraft will disintegrate in mid-air, and I didn't load it with the minerals we need.
Inside, I purposely let the robots collect some iron ore rich in the same iron elements as on Earth's surface from the moon."
When he heard this, the old man's eyes lit up.
On the other end of the phone came the old man's hearty laughter:
"Haha. You're quite a rascal, but I like it; haha, this time we need to let them suffer a bit!
By then, with the spacecraft disintegrating overhead, what awaits them won't be what they desire but instead a rain of iron ore stones, definitely pounding them into cries of anguish, haha. Well done."
Just as the old man said, Lin Yi's aim was precisely this.
When those carriers reach the designated point, what they get will certainly not be a complete return capsule but a sky full of raining stones.
Bear in mind, even after high-temperature friction, iron ore is still iron ore.
That kind of thing falling from high altitudes hitting their ships is virtually like shells.
If luck is good, then the yield this time will surely have unexpectedly good results.
Just before Lin Yi could relish in his plan, the old man spoke again, and what he said directly negated Lin Yi's seemingly perfect plan.
Listening to the old man's voice softly coming over: 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"This plan is indeed nice, but there are still some flaws."
