Henry and the others found an ordinary food stall and ordered some spicy and fried food.
Chris asked for two more bottles of iced beer and took a few sips with Henry.
The dishes were slowly served on the table.
Milan, who had been puzzled for the whole afternoon, asked. "Dad, why did those people look for you today? What else did they say?"
"This matter..." Chris smiled and said, "In fact, it's nothing. Mr. Yang and I have done some projects. And it has aroused others' coveting."
"What kind of project?" Milan asked in confusion. This business must be risky since the killers came for them.
Chris looked around and whispered, "A project that can turn water into fuel."
"What!"
After the project was mentioned by Chris, Milan and Sylvia almost cried out in surprise at the same time.
"Transforming water into energy? Uncle Xiao, can your project really succeed?" Sylvia couldn't believe it. If it was done, it would benefit the whole human race.
Chris drank a glass of beer and said, "We got some accomplishment, and the specific steps haven't been completed yet. It's hard to research the rest of the things."
Milan frowned. The more surprising the project was, the more dangerous the current situation of Chris was.
"Dad, if it's too dangerous, don't do it. Compared with life, life is more important."
Chris shook his head indifferently. "It's okay. Didn't you see that? I have someone to protect me."
Henry was silent. After a while, he said, "Godfather, who brought up this project to you? When did it happen?"
"Josh Yang, the chairman of Yongfeng, three months ago."
Henry stretched out his hand and knocked on the table in an irregular way.
Three months ago? The exact time he went to The King Region.
This technology appeared three months ago. Was it a coincidence?
Henry could not help but think of something else. The existence of Fire Crystals could affect the layout of the world, and it was enough to show the importance of energy.
Regarding turning water into energy, Radiant Island had also used Fire Crystals to do some research. It was a great achievement.
What Chris said was stuck in Henry's mind. He couldn't wait to figure out where the research project of Yongfeng came from, whether it was his own development, or if there was someone else behind it.
Henry thought for a moment and said to Chris, "Godfather, let's do it this way. I'll stay here to protect you during this period of time. I happen to have a friend who does this kind of research. I'll ask her to help you."
"Don't bother." Chris waved his hand.
"Dad! Just let Henry protect you. With his protection, I can rest assured," said Milan.
Chris looked at his daughter with a smile on his face. "Milan, I didn't expect you to be so confident in Henry."
"That's for sure. You don't know that he went to the talent centre for the appraisal today. In terms of security alone, the talent centre has given him a 160 million estimated annual salary. I trust him completely." Milan rolled her eyes.
"A hundred and sixty million?" Chris was shocked by this number. He also knew the talent centre and the conclusion was very authoritative. Many people in the Xiao Group were found in the centre, but he had never heard of a high price of a hundred and sixty million annual salary.
Chris looked at Henry and nodded. "Henry, you've been suffering for so many years."
Chris did everything alone in the beginning. He knew very well how much a person had to suffer on the road of growth. If Henry could get such a high evaluation price, that meant that he had experienced many sleepless nights.
