This has driven major overseas cybersecurity companies into a frenzy. Whoever can develop a targeted detection and removal tool will not only gain a large number of users, but also a huge reputation.

As for the stock price, it has a huge boosting effect.

Seeing that the conditions were right, Li Mu contacted Micro Security Company through the dark web.

Two days later, the deal was officially completed. Li Mu received virtual currency worth five million US dollars, and Micro Company received a tool for detecting and removing mini-programs.

Selling it for five million US dollars seems like a bad deal, but Li Mu isn't making money from that now. The money comes from the people, and there are more convenient ways to make money.

Moreover, he wouldn't underestimate those internationally renowned security companies. Even if he didn't take action, within ten days, a security company would definitely develop a targeted detection and removal tool.

After acquiring five million US dollars in cryptocurrency, Li Mu immediately made a move and bought more shares of Micro Company.

A day later, Micro held a large press conference in front of hundreds of reporters to officially announce that they had developed the world's first targeted anti-virus and removal tool, which was officially launched that day for users around the world to download and use.

After the press conference, the news spread quickly, and some computer users tried downloading Micro Security software. Sure enough, the infected computers were detected and the virus was removed.

As a result, the news spread even faster, and more and more users began to download Micro's security software.

In the stock market, Micro suddenly became very popular, with a lot of funds flowing in. Since there are no price limits overseas, the stock price soared.

In just two days, the market value surged from over 500 million US dollars to over 3 billion US dollars before the momentum gradually stalled. Seeing that the time was right, Li Mu began to close his positions. It might rise further, but that was no longer his concern. For him, timing was crucial; knowing when to stop was just right.

After repaying the leverage and interest, he finally received 1.45 million US dollars.

All of this money was then used to buy cryptocurrency, then converted back to cash, and then used to buy cryptocurrency again... After several rounds of this, although the total amount shrank somewhat, the source of the money was completely resolved.

Through various channels, this money entered the country and became 8.85 million yuan, finally completing the ammunition stockpiling for a high-temperature apocalypse.

……

Despite all this work, it only took a little over a week. It's almost November, but the weather is still scorching hot, like the height of summer.

This is true not only domestically but also internationally. Many climate experts have conducted extensive research on this issue, and most explanations simply state that it was caused by rare, extreme climate change.

As for the doomsday prophecy, it does have a market, but it's just the media hyping it up and netizens having fun. People can join in the hype, but how many will actually take it seriously?

Li Mu could only watch coldly. Without any evidence, even if he issued a warning now, how many people would believe it?

Fortunately, although the weather is hot, it is still within the normal range, and people can still live and work normally. Social order remains prosperous and stable. We can take this opportunity to do a good job in logistical preparations.

First, buy a car.

However, considering the future situation, I think I should forget about ordinary family cars and get a top-of-the-line SUV with strong adaptability first.

Without much hesitation, he spent nearly four million yuan, paying extra to get a Mercedes-Benz G63. Actually, he wanted to get a Knight XV, a car that's even more imposing and powerful than the Mercedes-Benz G-Class.

Measuring over six meters long, and exceeding two and a half meters in height and width, this so-called ultra-luxury armored off-road vehicle boasts a maximum output of 400 horsepower and 6757 kgm of torque. The entire vehicle is impregnable, with bumpers crafted from high-speed steel—a material typically found in drill bits. The glass is fully armored, with the windshield and side windows reaching a thickness of 6.4 centimeters, and the sunroof featuring bulletproof glass up to 3.2 centimeters thick, capable of withstanding most bullet attacks.

The wheels are 20-inch forged aluminum alloy and Hutchinson bulletproof run-flat tires, so it can still drive normally even if it is punctured. In addition, the undercarriage is explosion-proof and equipped with a magnetic detector. There is an external surveillance camera system, a night vision system, and an air circulation system inside the vehicle. The whole vehicle can withstand the attack of a 15 kg TNT bomb. In short, it is bulletproof, poisonproof, and explosion-proof.

When you're driving on the road and a Hummer passes by, you might be awestruck by its massive size. But when you're driving a Hummer and encounter the Knight XV, this monster-level ultra-luxury armored off-road vehicle makes the Hummer look like a big toy.

However, they are not available on the market at all. If you want to buy them, you have to order them by spending money, and the price is not low. At least ten million is required, and if you want the top-of-the-line version, the price can reach twenty million.

However, the production process is a bit lengthy, and ordering now is a bit late. Li Mu can only try to contact the Knight XV production factory in Toronto to see who has ordered it but doesn't want it anymore. As long as the configuration is good enough, he wouldn't mind buying it.

The car issue was a minor matter and was quickly put aside.

Next is accommodation, which has even higher requirements, since it will be the base of our future life, so we can't be careless.

Li Mu preferred a large villa with multiple basements, which would be easier to renovate and store more supplies.

Chapter 462 Villa Renovation and Harvesting Leeks

The next day, it was time to meet with the agent, Xiao Liu.

"Mr. Li, you are here."

Seeing Li Mu's Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Xiao Liu's eyes lit up.

Li Mu parked the car, got out, and looked at the villa area in front of him, saying, "The villa you mentioned is right here!"

Xiao Liu said with a fawning expression, "Yes, Mr. Li. Your requirements are really too high. I had to sift through all the properties in our company before I found this one that was suitable."

"I'll take you to see it. This villa is the best one around here; I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Li Mu nodded: "Thank you for your trouble."

Xiao Liu smiled and said, "No trouble at all...no trouble at all."

Once inside the villa area, we boarded the exclusive eco-friendly four-wheeled electric vehicle, which provided information about the villas as it drove along.

"Mr. Li, look at this environment and style. This villa area is the most luxurious in Yun City."

Li Mu looked at it and said, "It is indeed not bad, but it can't be considered the most top-tier villa area. This is the suburbs, not the city center, and that alone makes it lose points."

Xiao Liu chuckled and said, "Mr. Li, you're right. However, although this is the suburbs, it's not an ordinary suburb. There are no villages or urban villages nearby, the scenery is beautiful, and the environment is excellent."

“For those working people, living in the city center is more convenient, but for you, Mr. Li, the environment is the most important thing. Look at the beautiful and quiet surroundings, with all the supporting business districts and commercial facilities.”

"And this villa district, the quality and style are absolutely unique in Yun City. Even though it's not in the city center, which takes a slight downside, it's still definitely one of the top villa districts in Yun City."

Li Mu smiled faintly. The agent was indeed right about this. In terms of quality and style, this villa area was indeed one of the top villa areas in Yun City.

Although it's a bit far from the city center and less populated, the surrounding amenities are extremely comprehensive, with parks, hospitals, sports stadiums, wetlands, forests, commercial plazas, and much more.

Li Mu didn't want to choose a crowded place in the first place, because the more people there are, the more likely it is to cause trouble. The sparsely populated suburbs are more suitable than the city center.

Got to the place quickly.

Xiao Liu introduced, "Mr. Li, look... this is the villa. It's the king of the villas in the entire villa area, and the only large villa that meets your requirements with two basement levels."

With that, accompanied by the villa security guard, he opened the villa gate and led Li Mu inside.

"Mr. Li, as you can see, this villa covers an area of ​​2,200 square meters, with two underground floors and three floors above ground, and a building area of ​​1,800 square meters. It not only has a huge outdoor swimming pool and a super large garage that can accommodate seven cars at the same time, but also a garden covering 580 square meters in the back."

"Moreover, we hired an internationally renowned design firm to design and luxuriously decorate the place. You can see that the taste and quality are top-notch."

"Once the soft furnishings are in place, you can move in immediately."

Li Mu took a look and thought it was indeed good. The key point was that this was the only villa with two basements that he had visited in many villa areas; the basements of the other villas were basically only one-story.

Accompanied by the agent, I gave a thorough tour of the place, especially the basement, which I was quite satisfied with.

Each basement level has an area of ​​360 square meters and a ceiling height of 3 meters. With two basement levels combined, the space is definitely large enough.

Finally, Li Mu nodded: "How much is it?"

Xiao Liu said, "Mr. Li, this villa is the best in this villa area. You've seen the conditions; it's been meticulously crafted in every aspect. It's definitely a top-tier luxury residence in Yun City."

"This villa area was only recently completed and not many have been sold yet, otherwise this villa would have been bought long ago."

"Such a nice villa should naturally be more expensive, with a total price of 1.1 million."

Li Mu smiled and said, "The housing prices in Yun City are currently around 12,000 yuan per square meter."

Xiao Liu said with a wry smile, "Mr. Li, that's the city's average price, which includes ordinary residential properties. Ours is a top-tier luxury residence in Yun City, and it's been luxuriously renovated, so the price is definitely higher than the average."

Li Mu said, "A higher price is acceptable, but the necessary discounts shouldn't be reduced... If the conditions are right, we'll sign the contract immediately, and I'll pay in full."

Xiao Liu was overjoyed: "Mr. Li, don't worry, I will definitely get you the best possible discount."

……

A few hours later, after signing the purchase contract and transferring the money at the bank, the villa was his. The total cost was 1.05 million yuan, plus five years of free property management fees and a top-of-the-line BMW M5. The real estate company really went all out to sell the property.

As soon as the house was settled, Li Mu began to worry about renovations, at the very least ensuring it had heat protection features.

He drove to the Four Seasons Hotel. Since buying the car, he couldn't go back to his rented apartment; it was too conspicuous. Besides, Li Mu wasn't one to suffer; he spent his money and enjoyed life to the fullest.

A few days ago, he moved out of his rented apartment and booked a presidential suite at the Four Seasons Hotel for half a month. After all, he bought a villa and needed to renovate it before he could move in.

Back at the hotel, Li Mu began looking for a suitable renovation company, and found one that was quite suitable.

This is a large decoration company in the city. Unlike ordinary decoration companies, it often takes on special orders with extremely high requirements and has a lot of experience in decoration for heatstroke prevention and cold prevention.

The next day, Li Mu arranged a meeting with the person in charge, Manager Wang, and took him to see the site in person.

Manager Wang said, "Mr. Li, this villa is so big, you need to do all the renovations to protect it from the heat, sun, and humidity..."

Li Mu asked, "Is there any difficulty?"

Manager Wang smiled confidently: "Of course, no problem. Our company has been established for more than 20 years and has received many related orders, including government and private ones. Our clients have very high requirements, and we can complete them with extremely high quality. We have a good reputation in Yun City."

Li Mu said, "I chose you because of your reputation."

Manager Wang said, "I guarantee you won't be disappointed."

Li Mu pointed to the roof and continued, "Also, there's a new type of solar tile on the market that can be installed on the roof like a roof tile. I've contacted a batch of these tiles with strong sun protection capabilities, and we plan to install them on the roof. Their technicians will also come over to provide guidance. Is that alright with you?"

Manager Wang said, "No problem, Mr. Li, please rest assured, we have experience in this area."

Li Mu said, "That will be troublesome."

Manager Wang said, "It's no trouble at all. Several customers have already consulted us about installing photovoltaic solar panels recently."

Li Mu looked up at him and said, "Oh! There are other people doing this too."

Manager Wang said, "Yes! The weather this year is a bit strange. Look, it's almost November, and it's still so hot. Experts say this is a rare extreme climate change, and some customers are worried about future power instability... so they consult us about setting up photovoltaic solar power generation."

Li Mu nodded: "The weather has been too extreme lately. Better safe than sorry. We have to be prepared and take precautions."

Manager Wang said with a smile, "Yes! That makes sense. It's just that my house doesn't allow it, otherwise I would have installed some photovoltaic solar panels to avoid future voltage instability."

After chatting for a while, Li Mu asked, "How long would it take to completely renovate the villa to prevent heatstroke, sunburn, and other heat-related issues...?"
