All-Heavens Spellcaster
Chapter 578
“Boss, are you over-protective?” Jesse asked without looking back while sitting in the cab eating hot dogs from the roadside stall.
“Excessive desire for protection? Why do you have such an idea?” Zhang Cheng faint smile asked rhetorically.
“Isn’t it? You know, Elizabeth just changed to a public school with a slightly worse environment. You just ran to take a look. I guess my parents didn’t care about me that much when I was in school.” Jesse explained with envy and hatred.
Through the rearview mirror, Zhang Cheng saw the expression on the face of this somewhat nervous girl, chuckled and waved his hand: “No, of course not. Do you think I am protecting Elizabeth? Actually I just Protecting the last piece of pure land in your heart.
Do you know? From a psychological point of view, the more a person lacks, the more he desires.
Just like a gang boss, what he most desires is usually not to kill his competitors and dominate where he is.
What they really want is an ordinary that does not need to worry about whether they will be killed all day long. Life, or a simple love mixed with any money, power and threats.
The reason is very simple, not to say how rare and precious ordinary life and beautiful simple love are, but to the hands The gang members who have long been stained with blood are the last hope and pure land in their hearts.
Think about how many vicious drug lord and gang boss in the world, there is a cautiously caring behind them Family, or beloved lover, relative?
Remember, Jessie, there are almost three types of motivation that support people’s survival. First is ambition and desire, and second is what I just mentioned. The hope and spiritual sustenance of the third, the third is the strong hatred.
I don’t want to become a monster that only depends on the motivation of first and third to survive. That kind of life is too sad.”
Jesse Livermore swallowed the food in her mouth, looking thoughtful nodded: “I seem to understand a little bit. Elizabeth has something you desire but never get, so protecting her is protecting herself The pure land and hope in my heart?”
“Yes! Do you want to see me fall completely into darkness and become an unscrupulous lunatic?” A gloom flashed in Zhang Cheng’s eyes. Bloodthirsty and crazy rays of light.
“no! Not at all!” Jesse was no doubt aware of this and shivered subconsciously.
You must know that the crazy cleansing in the last two weeks has made her feel that many people are full of bloody smells. If this happens all day, I am afraid that it will not take long for a nervous breakdown.
As sociologists have said, although the world is dark, politics is dirty, and human nature is ugly, human beings always need a little light and hope to sustain themselves, even if this Light and hope are false and forged.
“Okay, let’s go. Since Elizabeth is able to protect herself, we don’t need to stay and waste time. Going to the outskirts of New York, my nominal mother is still on the construction site. Waiting for me.” After that, Zhang Cheng picked up the phone and shook the address in the text message.
“OK! I promise you will be there in at most an hour.” Without a word, Jesse stepped on the accelerator and drove straight toward the highway.
After all, the traffic in New York is notoriously congested, especially during the rush hour. It is common for two or three hours to be blocked. Only the highway situation can be slightly better.
Fortunately, not long after Christmas, many people are still taking annual vacations, so there are not too many vehicles to make people feel uncomfortable.
About four seventeen-eighteen minutes or so, these two sturdy off-road vehicles finally stopped next to a busy construction site.
I saw a place the size of two standard stadiums. A large number of Crane and excavators were digging the foundation quickly. Even the hard frozen soil in winter could not withstand the power of machinery.
Only one thing is very suspicious, that is, when digging the foundation, a steel pillar engraved with strange symbols will be smashed in every distance.
What I know is that a large and fully enclosed plant cultivation center is going to be built here, but those who don’t know think that there will be a strange art building.
Listening to the loud noise from the machinery, Zhang Cheng pushed the sect master to move away.
Before he could take a few steps, Zhang Zhi, who had been waiting for a long time, walked over with a Latino man in his fifties with a helmet on his head, and asked with a smile: “How is Christmas?”
“Not bad! Except for the bad weather in New York, everything else is fine.” Zhang Cheng deliberately pretended to be indifferent and spread his hands.
Since knowing how terrifying the desire to control the seemingly smart mother in front of him is hidden, he subconsciously forced himself to be more vigilant.
“Really? I thought you were not satisfied with the Christmas present I gave you.” Zhang Zhi teased meaningfully.
Zhang Cheng hurriedly responded with a smile: “Why! In my eyes, that 20% of the primordial shares is the best Christmas gift.”
” Good.” When the strong mother heard these words, a look of satisfaction appeared on her face. “Come, let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Martin who is in charge of construction. He has a lot of questions about construction and wants to discuss with you face to face. After all, you have put forward a lot of strange requests.”
“Hello! Mr. Zhang.” Brother Xi, who was in his fifties, took the initiative to extend his right hand.
“Hello, Mr. Martin.”
Out of courtesy, Zhang Cheng also stretched out his right hand and shook his hand, followed by Blunt’s question: “About construction, Is there anything you don’t understand?”
“Yes, sir.” The old man called Martin hurriedly spread out the drawing in his hand and pointed at a few key points:” I don’t understand. Why do you smash those iron pillars with mysterious symbols into the foundation? This will greatly increase the difficulty of construction and increase the cost of construction. If possible, I hope to remove them so that at least 3,000,000 to 5,000,000 are left. U.S. dollar budget.”
“No, no. They are the most critical part of this building and cannot be removed by any means. In addition, there are steel plates, pipes, and pipes that I require to be embedded in the walls. There is a slight modification, otherwise the whole building will lose its proper function.” Zhang Cheng gave a negative answer without thinking.
These things are the top priority to support the structure of Pang’s magic. Not to mention canceling a certain part, even if there are defects in the construction, it will cause the entire huge Arcane Garden to fail to start.
Of course, small flaws can be fixed by one by one, but if there is a problem with the main structure, God will not be able to save it.
“Can’t move at all?” Martin’s eyes widened in disbelief.
As a Latino construction engineer who immigrated to the United States from Brother Xi in Mexico, it was the first time he saw an employer who was unwilling to reduce construction costs.
“Can’t move at all! Not only can’t move, but also the quality is guaranteed. For this reason, it’s worth spending more money…”
