"However..." Qin Xiweng hesitated after Ye Hao said 'good'.

"However what?" Ye Hao asked with a smile. If something could make Qin Xiweng hesitate, it must definitely be something money couldn't currently buy.

"Submarine No. 2 needs adhesive material, and there's not much left. It might not be enough. Chairman, what do you think about this?" Qin Xiweng frowned on the other end of the phone. A lack of adhesive material would greatly weaken Submarine No. 2's effectiveness underwater.

Not to mention, its speed wouldn't reach the ideal rate, and prolonged use might cause disintegration or some accident while diving due to incompatible materials.

Ye Hao also frowned slightly. He thought of the abundant G material, combined with those yet to be developed in the northeast, which was enough to last a long time. But adhesive material wasn't always available, causing him a headache!

Encountering a mass of adhesive material was a coincidence. Trying to get more might be impossible without a special opportunity.

Of course! If we could find a mining field for this material, refining would be possible then, but such mining fields are hard to find!

"No rush for now, I'll figure it out later. First, get Submarine No. 2 ready; I plan to take Ran Tai and the others away for a while." Ye Hao decided to put aside the adhesive material issue, intending to check out the tomb mentioned by Zheng Guang once Lv Dong gave him the news.

Perhaps there would be some rare items! After all, it was the tomb of the Emperor of the Great Ming.

"Alright then, Chairman, I'll get to work. I'll try to adjust my mindset and embrace more challenges. Thank you, thank you for trusting me so much even after what my father did, and allowing me to control the family business without reservation. Thank you." Qin Xiweng was not someone who thanked others often, yet he said several thanks in one sentence.

This shows how grateful he was to Ye Hao. After all, given his identity as the son of the Qin Army and what his father did, he could have been detained by the local police.

But Ye Hao not only prevented him from being detained but also had people clarify things on his behalf, giving no one a reason to detain him.

"I trust you because I believe in my own judgment. Work hard!" Ye Hao said with a smile.

"I won't betray the trust of the Chairman and fellow brothers. Qin Xiweng has devoted his life to the family business. Someday, I will develop it into the greatest power, and confront that heartless man, asking if he's not afraid of being struck by lightning for doing so many extreme things..." Qin Xiweng said coldly.

"Hmm!" Ye Hao didn't want to get too involved in Qin Xiweng's family matters, but if he ever had the chance to capture Qin Army, Ye Hao wouldn't let him go, even though Qin Xiweng was his subordinate. Qin Army's actions weren't enough to atone even if he died ten thousand times for brutally killing ordinary people in explosions.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Hao went downstairs to wash his face and brush his teeth.

Lin Ruyu was in the kitchen preparing food for Ye Hao, while Su Qing lazed on the couch watching TV like a little piglet.

Ye Hao entered the kitchen with a smile and hugged Lin Ruyu.

"Feeling better?" Lin Ruyu asked gently.

"With such great care from you all, if I didn't recover quickly, you'd be worried." Ye Hao replied with a smile.

"It's good that you're okay; take more rest."

"I'm fine. By the way, where are Lulong and Grandma?" Ye Hao asked, noticing no one else was home.

"Lulong went out with Mr. Su and them, seems like they went to the seaside!" Lin Ruyu wasn't too sure. As long as Elder Su was there, she believed nothing would happen.

"Haha, that girl. By the way, I want you to practice National Martial Arts..."

"No, it's too tiring." Lin Ruyu shook her head directly. She wanted to quietly be a woman, join her father's company after college, and take over when he retires.

And by doing so, aid Ye Hao in his endeavors, helping his power grow as well.

"Alright! Even if you don't practice, you'll live a long life." Ye Hao smiled, thinking with the Cold and Hot Ice Marrow balancing Yin and Yang, even the Death God couldn't take Lin Ruyu and Su Qing away.

"Yes!" Lin Ruyu nodded.

After brushing his teeth, Ye Hao's phone rang.

Seeing it was Lv Dong, Ye Hao hurriedly answered.

"How's it going?" Ye Hao asked directly.

"Boss, we found it. It's hidden so well; if we hadn't brought special equipment, we'd definitely be returning empty-handed." Lv Dong laughed on the other end.

"Oh? You're sure it's the place Elder Zheng mentioned?" Ye Hao felt a little excited, the wealth of nations… anyone would be tempted, right?

"Without a doubt, this is exactly what Elder Zheng said: North View of Xiao and Xiang, South View Yuedong, flanked by Yuesi on the left, Ganjing River on the right, in the Land of Hidden Dragons and Tigers in the Nanling. I also consulted Feng Shui experts, and they said it's indeed a good place. Our detection equipment revealed many voids inside the mountain. However, Nanling is so vast that our equipment can't completely detect its internal conditions." Lv Dong said excitedly over the phone.

"Seems like we got it right. The Zheng family's knowledge has been passed down through generations, but they don't have an exact location, only that it's in that part of Nanling. If we open an entry passage, we might find a way in." Ye Hao said excitedly too.

"We found the location, but there are many people loitering around lately. They don't seem normal, not sure if they're looking for something too." Lv Dong expressed some doubt amidst his enthusiasm, knowing this was the tomb of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, as Ye Hao had told him, a tomb bound to have treasures.

If more people entered, they'd have to share the loot, something they didn't want to happen.

"Who are these people?" Ye Hao asked.

"There are National Martial Arts Stage One and Stage Two individuals among them. They are quite mixed and don't seem to know each other, but they all seem to be searching for something." Lv Dong replied.

"Don't mind them for now, and stop searching yourself. Find a place to settle, observe the surrounding terrain, and count any outsiders." Ye Hao didn't know who they were, but guarding against them was better than doing nothing.

"Yes, so then, Boss, you..."

"I'll head over right after handling my current matters. Stay safe, and if you encounter someone stronger, don't act recklessly." Ye Hao instructed.

"Understood, I'll wait for you all then."

After hanging up, Ye Hao's eyes twinkled brightly. Without having breakfast, he immediately went up to the second floor to start sketching diagrams.

These were the designs for Hanglong No. 1, and while the current power of the family may not yield significant results, having some components manufactured now is better than rushing later.
