"If you can find enjoyment in it, I won't object."

Isis indifferently reminded him, "But with your talents and abilities, you shouldn't waste them in a place like this."

"Why can't I?"

Ji Jue turned around, puzzled and asked back.

That matter-of-fact attitude, however, left Isis in silence.

It's as if it should be so.

He eagerly threw himself into it, regardless of gain or loss, without caring about the consequences, enthusiastically investing his precious talents into assembling worthless junk, yet finding joy in it.

"I can't understand."

She sighed regretfully, "I ultimately cannot understand humans, sir."

"What is there to understand? Can humans even understand themselves?"

Ji Jue laughed, "Besides, I don't think they're garbage. For those who have nothing, some things, no matter how broken or worthless, are rare treasures."

"As long as it's broken enough, you don't have to fear it being taken away. As long as it's cheap enough, you can own and have it yourself."

"Twelve yuan all-you-can-eat pork rice, soon-to-expire buy-one-get-one-free milk and drinks, an eight-hundred-yuan scrapped fridge, a used scooter with stickers and scratches, a computer assembled from various second-hand parts..."

He counted these ordinary things on his fingers, as if talking about treasures, "Isis, I like things like these."

In the long silence, Isis didn't speak, quietly gazing at those eyes brimming with laughter.

As if they were gems, sparkling.

After a while, she said, "I understand now."

"Ah?"

Ji Jue was bewildered, "...understand what?"

"Your hopelessness."

The mechanical arm swiftly snatched the design drawing from Ji Jue's hand, still sharp-tongued, "Next, your poor slave will start working once again for your unspeakable grand plan.

And please kindly go elsewhere to annoy others, don't waste my time anymore."

"Thank you, Isis." Ji Jue waved with a smile.

Isis didn't speak, unwilling to pay him any attention.

Only the starlight inside the container gathered, forming the outline of a finger pointing towards the door.

Soon after, the Spiritual Light operated, streaming through circuits and diffusing, once again, taking over everything through the temporary workshop.

On the ground, inside numerous factories, countless pieces of equipment sequentially started, preheated, and test ran.

Beyond human multithreaded processing started again, everything operating flawless and impeccable, fully committed...to matters the Spirit of Workshop deemed insignificant trifles.

The work began.

Once again...

.

.

In just half a month's time, to everyone, it seemed like a brutal massacre and a siege.

After choking the entire upstream and downstream industry chains, blocking the supply of parts and raw materials, Yin Chaoyang, backed by the energy of Echo Technology, continuously exerted influence over all channels, openly and covertly, behind and in front of the scenes, pervasively suppressing the Coastal Automobile Factory, an ensemble that lacked manpower and equipment.

After seizing the critical supply of numerous essential parts, cutting off the maintenance and updating of equipment, and through guilds stopping the recruitment channels of new blood and skilled workers, further connecting most car dealerships through Universe channels and a tangled web of interests, sealing off Coast's sales channels.

With a series of smooth moves, from heart to arteries, all critical points were locked, yet he still felt it wasn't enough, acquiring the Coast's debts through various means at different banks, still not stopping up to now.

With Coast's debts in his hands already exceeding 1.4 billion, he formally initiated litigation.

The case was handled by the Southeast region's top law firm's ace team, bypassing the jurisdiction of Cliff City, directly holding a court session in East City in ten days, rejecting all out-of-court settlements and communications, demanding the auction of Coastal Automobile Factory's assets to repay the debts.

Either pay up or sell the factory, as simple as that.

This was with Xu Chaoxian still delaying his signature on the tens of billions of bad debts in Cliff City's investment bank, otherwise, it might have been taken to the Federation's Supreme Court in Central City.

Turmoil was constant, never a day of peace.

The waves and struggles behind the scenes, Ji Jue couldn't even glimpse, nor did anyone talk to him about these matters to put pressure on him at this time.

Amidst many overt and covert spectating and peeping, Yin Chaoyang presented a vivid and graphic display of bullying and slaughtering.

Ji Jue began with a poor start, Ji Jue made blunders, Ji Jue fell into a hard battle, Ji Jue struggled desperately—

Then, less than a week later, Ji Jue announced the launch of a new car!
