Chapter 1013 - 370: The Disappearance of Frontline Unspoken Rules—Shall We Build Our Own City!?_4

"What?!"

"Who??"

"Someone’s going to fund our city building?! Is there really such a good deal in this world?!"

This time, even the usually composed Lu Jiuyuan couldn’t help but gasp.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Fang Qingyu’s face.

Fang Qingyu stopped keeping them in suspense.

He took out his phone, tapped the screen, and dialed a number.

After a brief wait, the call connected.

An obviously surprised and excited middle-aged male voice suddenly came from the speaker.

It echoed clearly in the quiet suite.

"Captain Fang?! Is it really you?! That’s fantastic! The scattered news from the City of Injustice said you might have returned, but I didn’t expect you to contact me so soon. Have you really returned from the City of Injustice? Are you healthy? Miss Jiang and all the brothers are well?"

This enthusiastic and caring voice belonged to Shen Zhou.

He was the highest person in charge of Deep Blue Heavy Industry Group at the Arctic Front.

Listening to the barrage of greetings, Fang Qingyu smiled gently, "It’s me, we’re all good. The ship has set sail and is expected to arrive at the port in three to four days."

"Great, great, great." Shen Zhou’s voice was full of joy, "I’ll be sure to give Captain Fang a welcome feast when you arrive. By the way, Captain Fang, is there something you need Deep Blue Heavy Industries to assist with that prompted this call? Feel free to ask! As long as I can do it, there will be no hesitation!"

Shen Zhou was very accommodating.

Fang Qingyu’s gaze swept over the faces filled with tension and anticipation.

Speaking into the phone, he calmly said:

"Director Shen, thank you for the welcome feast, but I’m reaching out this time to talk about a bigger business deal."

"If I want to build a new, large-scale, permanent comprehensive fortress city at the Arctic Front, are you interested in collaborating?"

"..."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, lasting about ten seconds.

It was so quiet that the faint electrical buzzing could be heard.

Along with the sound of everyone’s heartbeat in the suite.

Just as Wei Banmeng and the others thought the other party was stunned by this crazy proposal...

"Absolutely!!"

Shen Zhou’s voice exploded.

The tone changed completely due to excitement and ecstasy.

"Captain Fang! Very interested, extremely interested! Are you serious? Collaborating to build a city at the Arctic Front? This is an incredibly good opportunity! Deep Blue Heavy Industries couldn’t be more eager! A million times yes!!!"

This nearly ecstatic response.

Made everyone in the suite, except for Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei, look rather perplexed.

Even knowing Deep Blue Heavy Industries had a favorable attitude towards Fang Qingyu.

But hearing about building a city with Fang Qingyu shouldn’t be so thrilling.

However, Fang Qingyu seemed to have anticipated this, with a slight smile on his lips: "Director Shen, are you this forthright? Not going to consider the cost, risk, and return?"

"What’s there to consider, Captain Fang."

Shen Zhou’s voice still trembled with excitement, as if afraid Fang Qingyu would change his mind, "You don’t know, business at the Arctic Front is so tough now, except for Jiang Family’s Glazed Light City maintaining the basics, other cities... sigh."

He sighed heavily, his tone full of helplessness and anxiety: "Now several major mineral veins are infiltrated by small groups of Life Ghost, mining is completely halted, the losses are huge! Deep Blue Hub’s logistics costs have skyrocketed by forty percent due to downgraded route safety level. The entire front’s economic ecosystem is deteriorating. The situation is unstable, people are uneasy, how can we do business?"

"So, if you’re willing to collaborate with us to build a city, that would be wonderful."

Fang Qingyu nodded while listening.

He had foresight that Shen Zhou would agree.

After all, anyone who watched the video of the fallen stars would know how formidable his current combat power is.

Investing in building a city is not particularly challenging for Deep Blue Heavy Industries.

Only he didn’t expect the process to be so smooth.

Shen Zhou didn’t even need to consider.

So Fang Qingyu and Shen Zhou quickly finalized the agreement.

However, before hanging up, Shen Zhou asked one more question:

"Oh, Captain Fang! What do you think we should name our city? I’ll instruct the design team to incorporate the name into the concept design right away; once the name is decided, the momentum will follow."

Name?

Fang Qingyu was slightly taken aback.

His mind had been entirely focused on solving the settlement issue.

He hadn’t really thought carefully about this before.

So his gaze instinctively swept the room’s occupants.

Chu Kuanglan had a look that said it’s up to you.

Wei Banmeng’s eyes reflected total agreement.

Su Wanqing and Lin Yu expressed gentle anticipation.

Lu Jiuyuan seemed contemplative.

Jiang Wei stood quietly by his side.

Her crimson eyes were clear, reflecting his silhouette.

Outside the window, the massive bow of the Ark of Hope was slicing through layers of ice.

Further away, the lead-gray heavy clouds hung like a giant curtain over the Ice Sea.

At the end where the clouds met the Ice Sea.

A ray of golden-red light, like a sword piercing the dark, penetrated the cloud’s barrier.

Tore the sky and sea into a dazzling chasm.

Dawn was about to arrive.

The night was about to end!

Seeing this, Fang Qingyu glanced at Lin Yu, recalling the name given to a WeChat group earlier.

"Dawn."

"Let’s call it Dawn."
