novelA Holiday That Ended Early
| ← Ch.1222 | Ch.1224 → |
Andrée Island, located south of Coro Island, was a relatively large island outside of the Pannu Nine Islands and was also a famous tourist attraction. It was rumored that the island was named after the sailor who first discovered the island on the Magellan fleet, and there was also a saying that the island was named after a London aristocrat who never visited Asia. Because the island shared the same name as the island near Antarctica, some members proposed to rename the island. However, since Xin was pushing for "unified language and cultural compatibility", this proposal did not come to fruition.
Jiang Chen, lying on the recliner, was leisurely enjoying his time off as the sea wind gently breezed by. He was drinking chilled smoothies while watching crowds play on the beach not far away.
Two days ago, after he had returned from the apocalypse, he brought Ayesha, Xia Shiyu, and Natasha to the holiday mansion near the beach.
Although he owned a lot of private beaches, nothing really compared to the liveliness of a public beach.
For example, beautiful women in swimsuits, gorgeous girls playing beach volleyball, and the "waves" that swayed around due to all the movement.
As for safety, the Ghost Agents were on the lookout for him, and drones were on standby 24-7 near him. So he did not need to be concerned...
Just as Jiang Chen's eyes were half-closed and he was about to fall asleep, a document was gently placed on his face and covered his sight of the beach.
The document slipped to his chest and Jiang Chen lazily picked it up. When he saw the black and white photo printed on the paper, his eyes narrowed and he took a brief look.
"This is?"
"Trump, a well-known real estate developer in the UA. He is also a candidate for the 2020 election. This is a paper copy of his relevant information. Here is his campaign speech..."
On the recliner next to Jiang Chen, Ayesha in a swimsuit tapped on the Future around her wrist. After the holographic screen opened, she gently pushed it toward Jiang Chen.
"A Republican?" Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow as he examined the man in the video before he clicked the play button, and touched his chin with intrigue, "interesting."
The holographic screen showed a campaign speech a few months ago on the lawn of a park in Nevada.
The protagonist of the speech was the "questionable nominee" in the center of the storm - Mr. Trump.
It was supposed to be a very formal speech, but Jiang Chen felt like he was watching a talk show.
"..."
"I'm rich, I'm very rich, I'm very very rich!"
"So, I don't care how much money those Wall Street people will give me!"
"I assure you that if you vote for me, at least the vote will not inexplicably appear in the pocket of Wall Street. Only I can represent your interests, only I can represent the UA dream, yes, only me!"
"We shouldn't send people like Kerry who has no idea how to negotiate and sign an infuriating and comical agreement with them, then watch as they use our money to make weapons and act aggressively at the negotiating table."
"You know who I am talking about. That's right! It's him! Only someone who is more of a man can negotiate with him, not that old woman without a proper menstrual period!"
"Tell me, will you vote for the old lady?"
"..."
"The UA dream has been shattered! And I will reshape the UA dream, make it bigger, better, stronger, and make it great again. Thank you."
At the beginning of the campaign, he offended the Wall Street, the female rights activists, and also directly targeted Kerry, and stated he will face that man.
"Are you sure this is a campaign declaration, not a declaration at an MMA fight?"
After Jiang Chen watched the video, he was not angry, but instead amused.
"Our analysis concluded that his chance of winning the March primaries is high and there are no strong candidates in the Republican Party, " Ayesha said."If he wins in the March primaries, then John Kennedy's biggest competitor will be him."
"Indeed, after watching this speech, even as a foreigner, I want to vote for him." After he had pushed the holographic screen aside, Jiang Chen said while trying to contain his laughter.
Of course, even if he was laughing, this candidate already caught the attention of Ghost Agents and must be treated with caution. While Future Group and the B City Consortium were both backing Mr. John Kennedy, the UA was not Xin after all. The identity of Future Group remained sensitive and thus some things must be done under disguise, or rather, under constraints...
Unlike the elections in Xin, the UA election was still at odds.
Jiang Chen turned off the holographic screen, cleared his throat, he pressed his fist against his lower lip for a moment, then, he ordered.
"Collect his information and focus on his diplomacy and trade policy. I need to know what his attitude towards Xin and Future Group is if this interesting candidate was ultimately elected."
"Mhmm, I'll get on it."
Ayesha nodded seriously and was about to get up, but Jiang Chen pulled on her arm.
She turned her head and was just about to ask what was going on when Jiang Chen interrupted.
"Forget about it today, go tomorrow."
Looking at the smirk on his face, Ayesha's cheeks turned red and she nodded lightly.
"Okay."
...
The thoughts that have accumulated for a long time were all melted into passionate sweat.
Natasha and Ayesha were not repulsive toward doing shameful things together, only Xia Shiyu was still somewhat reserved. But with peer pressure from the two girls and too much champagne, she fell beside Jiang Chen with a blush, closed her eyes, and gave all her best to him...
The next morning, leaning against the soft bed, Jiang Chen shook his drowsy head and turned his head.
When he saw the satisfied expressions of the three women, there was a proud smile. He looked straight up at the ceiling, reminiscing of last night's madness.
After he had returned from Shangjing, his three attributes also improved slightly. While he was still a long way from Sun Jiao, he was a superhuman by this world's standard. Even Natasha was defeated in his hands...
It was the power of technology.
When Jiang Chen let his thoughts diverge, Kelvin phoned in.
Jiang Chen quietly got up after moving the smooth arms wrapped around his neck away. After he covered the girls' three seductive and fascinating bodies, he put on his watch and went into the living room.
When he clicked the accept call button, he yawned and sat on a chair.
"Hello?"
As soon as the call was connected, Kelvin immediately spoke.
"There is a situation on Mars." Perhaps Kelvin was worried that the weight of his words did not sound urgent enough, he added, "It's Project 071."
As soon as Jiang Chen heard the number 071, he immediately turned serious.
"Are there findings at Mine 071?"
"We have drilled into the target layer and found something unusual in it..."
Jiang Chen's pupils shook as he stood up and walked to the window.
"I'll rush to Celestial City as soon as possible. You are responsible for convening the relevant personnel of the project team to prepare the relevant materials. We'll meet in ten hours."
"Understood!" Kelvin replied.
After he had hung up, Jiang Chen looked at the pleasant seascape outside the window and suddenly sighed.
Originally he had planned to stay on this island for a week.
But now his holiday must end early...
