Unfortunately, Yellow Beard was unyielding this time. Ji Jue spent a great deal of effort just to extract half of the Great Group's original blood from his mouth.

It seemed like it could be cut down one more time.

But Yellow Beard's grip on the Flame-shaped Sword cracked loudly, his face growing uglier.

He feared that if the price were cut any further, the blade would first strike his own head.

Meanwhile, on Old Tang's side, it seemed the Transformation Skill could only rely on luck and couldn't be executed smoothly, so he had to give up.

No way, it still feels like a huge loss!

But since the talks were done and agreed upon.

It was time to start dividing the materials…

It was only after realizing this that they noticed the Chosen Ones from the Desert Market who were there to watch the show had collectively moved a circle away at some point.

"Hmm, what's going on?"

Ji Jue held the Pan Ying, looking around confusedly.

"No, no, it's nothing." Blondie wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Brother Ji, please continue, continue!"

In the silence, everyone subconsciously moved a bit further out.

They couldn't even bother to watch the excitement anymore. Their gazes to this place were incredibly complicated—shock, astonishment, and even a certain kind of dread and awe.

Terrifying!

The craftsmen are so damn terrifying.

Brother, how on earth are you turning one fish into so many meals?!

It wasn't enough that you wanted to grind the bones of your dead opponent to dust, you also had to squeeze out the last bit of profit and value from them while they were alive. You were using every bit efficiently without wasting even the tiniest amount with a whole buffet!

Luckily Pacquiao's son died early, otherwise who knows... Oh, Pacquiao's son also died by your hand, so never mind.

Everyone sees clearly now, right?

From now on, stay far away from Xinquan!

If by any chance you get caught up with Ji Jue, then you're seriously screwed...

In the hair-raising sound, Ji Jue and Yellow Beard had already started taking advantage.

Even after dealing with Pacquiao, it wasn't over. While the other materials were still fresh and hot, he increasingly exerted effort in scrubbing his spoils of war.

The surviving Water Ghosts, named and capable, would get photographed to see if there was any remaining value; if not, they were sent into the workshop as quality jade. Unknown little scoundrels then gleefully received brand new jobs, sent by the kind-hearted Director Ji into a newly established underground rehab workshop for transformation.

Though they were all a bunch of jumping clowns, bits and pieces with limited capabilities, without much blessing, you couldn't count on their lifetime for any prospects, but at least they had life!

Moreover, having life, having a soul, all constitute spiritual quality!

So many excellent Spiritual Energy Batteries; shouldn't they be utilized heavily?

After touring Ji Jue's transformation workshop and reforming production line, even Yellow Beard gave a thumbs up—praising the newer generation surpassing the old; if it's not something, then it has to be you!

Keep in mind that most Chosen Ones are rebellious by nature, and these Water Ghosts, not even collected by the Great Evil, have long since rotted away, being nothing but crap.

But who said Director Ji liked to reform people the most?

After implanting explosion chips into their brains, then punishment electrodes into the spine, digging out the heart, a thrilling Mechanical Descent immediately animated a heart on site, adding a bit of life force extracted from the Great Evil Scale. Henceforth, they turned over a new leaf, becoming newly made people again!

Especially with the specially designed heart also containing solid alchemy, allowing the extraction of spiritual quality at any time. Through precise calculation, it kept the transformed individuals in a state where they couldn't live yet neither die, without delaying work and study.

The heart's power source uses wireless charging, applicable only within Xinquan; naturally, once outside, it won't sustain, not to mention the chip in the head that immediately self-destructs if disconnected from WiFi.

Upon recognizing reality, the new employees, overwhelmed by the 'warm assistance' of the old employees, burst into tears, throwing themselves passionately into the great cause of transformation and wilderness reform.

"I am guilty! I endanger mankind!"

"I am sorry to my parents!"

"I let down all beings!"

...

Amidst the deep lamenting and crying, Coastal Industry started its operations once more.

The short, one-hour war had just ended, and Xinquan's preparation and reconstruction work began anew—it turns out that most of the collapsed houses were subsequent shacks or temporary shelters, making losses not so significant. With the tens of billions of subsidies from the Seven Cities, Ji Jue was already eager and ready.

Rebuild Xinquan!

The tiny bit of losses was long recovered multiple times over from the Water Ghosts that delivered themselves!

Too bad, this great deal happens only once; henceforth, those little scoundrels, having learned their lesson, may not dare directly deliver on the doorstep again.

But it doesn't matter; if the mountain doesn't come, can't I go to the mountain?

As they say, love stretches over mountains and seas, and both can be leveled.

The world is so big, and there are so many needing transformation. How could Ji Jue heed the employees' call and just turn and leave?

The development of Coastal Industry will surely progress by leaps and bounds!

It can be anticipated that in the coming period, even during the rainy season, all of Xinquan would be bustling, not only with the rebuilding of structures but more expansive growth.

Expansion is now a necessity; originally ample capacity has now become inadequate.

Besides the new wind power and water supply, Ji Jue plans to further expand the business into shipbuilding and maintenance; after all, following Long River's redirection back to the estuary, he can rely on shipping for development.

Not to mention, there are so many ships left by the Water Ghosts.
