CHAPTER 84: CHAPTER 84: RETURN FULLY LOADED

The days in Leicestershire are always busy.

This made Jiang Cheng, who was used to a leisurely life, feel somewhat unaccustomed.

Moreover, compared to Jade Island, the air here was far worse. Jiang Cheng still preferred waking up to see blue skies and white clouds and enjoy the gentle sea breeze softly brushing against him.

So, early today, after meeting the last influential VIP guest, Jiang Cheng hastily packed his bags for the journey back to Jade Island.

Although he hadn’t been away from Jade Island for too long, Jiang Cheng was already missing the atmosphere there.

Compared to his empty-handed departure, this time Jiang Cheng was returning fully loaded.

Last night, Monica had reported to him that, according to incomplete statistics, the total value of the purchase agreements signed between Jade Island and major global enterprises and national regions had exceeded 500 billion USD, following the Leicestershire Ship Expo!

And this was only the first batch of transactions. As cooperation deepens, there will be a continuous stream of subsequent trades entering negotiation, which shows just how popular Jade Island’s tech products are globally!

Of course, taking on so many orders at once is a huge test of Jade Island’s production capacity.

Currently, Jade Island only has one flying car production factory and one high-speed transport ship manufacturing dock. With such production capacity, it’s clearly inadequate to meet the current order demands.

Therefore, once Jiang Cheng returns to Jade Island, the more important task is to expand the production workshops.

Even though orders keep coming in, without enough production capacity, it would all be for nothing.

Thus, the expansion is imperative.

For this reason, Jiang Cheng needs to return to Jade Island to make proper arrangements.

Additionally, the future development of Jiang Shipping is also a matter worth Jiang Cheng’s deep consideration.

The emergence of high-speed navigation technology will undoubtedly give the shipping industry a significant boost.

This is also an opportunity for Jiang Shipping to rise, one that he must grasp firmly.

According to the unequal treaties signed by Jiang Cheng and the world’s four major shipping giants, these giants must yield enough market shares to Jiang Shipping.

For example, in the Asia region, they no longer need to be involved in the shipping business.

The Asian shipping industry has always been suppressed by the four major shipping giants, unable to hold its head high.

With the introduction of high-speed transport ships, the global shipping industry is bound to undergo a complete reshuffle, which is both a challenge and an opportunity for all shipping enterprises.

And the key to whether one can meet the challenge lies in how fast they can upgrade their entire fleet. Only then can they seize a slight advantage.

The advantages of Jiang Shipping are quite evident.

The high-speed transport ships manufactured on Jade Island will surely meet internal demands first before being sold externally.

Thus, the rise of Jiang Shipping is already unstoppable.

...

Jade Island, Laputa International Airport.

A sleek Gulfstream G550 luxury private jet glided smoothly across the azure sky, landing on the runway.

Descending the stairs, Jiang Cheng took a deep breath of the refreshing air, exclaiming joyfully.

"How wonderful!"

Setting foot on Jade Island’s ground, Jiang Cheng felt a refreshing sea breeze wash over him, dispelling all traces of fatigue from the past few days in an instant.

"Absolutely right, Island Master! During those days in the UK, I felt so uncomfortable. Jade Island is truly more suitable for human living!"

At this moment, Monica, drenched in fragrant sweat, struggled to carry numerous large bags as she slowly walked down the stairs, breathlessly speaking to Jiang Cheng.

This trip to the UK wasn’t in vain for Monica. Before returning, she managed to persuade Jiang Cheng to accompany her on a thorough shopping spree through Britain’s famous commercial streets.

The result... was what it is now.

Recalling Monica’s determination to clear out the shopping streets, Jiang Cheng shivered a bit. This young lady, usually as docile as a kitten, transforms into a lioness when in shopping mode."

"Ahem, Monica, it seems we should consider introducing a batch of internationally renowned luxury stores to open branches on Jade Island. Otherwise, I’m afraid those British shopping streets will soon be cleared out by you."

Looking at Monica’s small hands carrying a large bag full of various branded clothing, Jiang Cheng rubbed his forehead, somewhat speechless.

It wasn’t that Jiang Cheng wasn’t being a gentleman. In fact, he had offered to help Monica carry her things before they got off the plane, but Monica had firmly refused.

According to her, these were her most valuable possessions, and she felt more at ease carrying them herself.

Ah, women!

Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but reflect inwardly.

"Really? That’s wonderful, Island Master! I’m sure Tina would be grateful to you as well." Upon hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, Monica squinted her beautiful eyes and chuckled softly.

Mid-conversation between the two, a faint rumble resonated from the distant sky as a crimson Transformer flying car slowly approached, landing next to Jiang Cheng.

The door opened, revealing Tina, in a fiery spaghetti strap dress, proudly accentuating her voluptuous curves as she swaggered toward the two of them.

"Dear Island Master, I’ve missed you so much during your absence." Tina’s large eyes were fixated on Jiang Cheng, filled with passionate intensity.

"Uh..."

Staring at Tina’s even more voluptuous figure, Jiang Cheng’s eyes widened.

This little temptress had become even more enchanting in just a few days...

With a roar, Tina, personally piloting the flying car, had already ferried Jiang Cheng and Monica back to the villa at Baisha Bay.

...

No sooner had Jiang Cheng returned to Jade Island than he found himself with no time to rest. Early the next morning, he rose early and directly entered work mode.

Under his arrangement, a series of strategic meetings were held with Mr. Li and other senior management from Jade Island to discuss the orders brought back from the ship exhibition.

The main focus of the meeting was on how to arrange the production plan, subsequent research and development, and improving service levels on Jade Island.

Jade Island had already made a name for itself.

However, its other supporting facilities were somewhat lacking or incomplete, not quite matching its current reputation.

Therefore, to better meet the needs of customers and tourists, Jade Island must develop appropriate supporting facilities.

First is the consumer sector; currently, nearly 50,000 tourists visit Jade Island daily, and their demand for various consumption aspects is quite intense.

To meet their needs, Jade Island will implement a series of initiatives to attract investments, primarily targeting renowned global brands.

For this purpose, several commercial shopping streets need to be developed in Laputa City and Dream Paradise Resort Special Zone to satisfy the consumption needs of tourists here.

Having delegated the tasks for attracting these investments, Jiang Cheng rushed back to his villa because he had more important matters to attend to.
