Time-traveling island

After experiencing the illusion once, Lü Tianshou dared not ask any more questions.

Although he was worried that cultivators could move mountains and fill seas, which would have a significant impact on the existing structure of the earth, this was no longer something that a mere department-level official like him could care about.

The only person here who can determine the fate of humanity is probably Lin An, who possesses alien technology.

Every decision he makes will bring unimaginable changes to the Earth!

Will humans be able to cultivate immortality in the future?

Or perhaps only Chinese people should cultivate immortality, while foreigners should practice magic.

That's not right either. Since Lin An opened the bridge of communication with another world, why can't the Western magical world be established in the East? For example, Harry Potter's Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, what was it called again?

Lu Tianshou's thoughts were racing wildly when he suddenly noticed the thin girl in coarse linen clothes. He snapped out of his reverie and quickly asked with a smile, "Is this also from another world?"

Wang Wanxiu sat quietly next to Lin An. When she saw her elder asking a question, she hurriedly stood up nervously.

Lu Tianshou quickly said, "Please sit down, don't be shy."

Wang Wanxiu blushed and sat down again.

Because of her escape from disaster, she felt somewhat inferior in front of the beautiful Su sisters and the noble elven woman. Now, entering this house on the sea and seeing the magnificent interior, she would have thought she had entered a fairyland if it weren't for Young Master Lin's presence.

Only immortals would build their houses on the sea.

"Don't be nervous, just say what you normally would, don't worry about the differences in modern etiquette," Lin An whispered to her.

Wang Wanxiu glanced gratefully at the young master before answering Lü Tianshou's question, saying, "This humble woman comes from Shuofang County of Shun State."

"Shun Kingdom?!"

"Shuofang Commandery? I remember that was a commandery in the north during the Han Dynasty."

"Is it from China? A parallel universe?"

Song Quan and the others, through a combination of guessing and speculation, had basically guessed the answer.

Lin An explained, "I don't know much about Shunguo right now. I only know that Miss Wang's side is fighting a war. Her family and the people from the county have fled to Anxing County. They are short of food and clothing. I plan to find a way to help them."

"Thank you for your help, young master!" Wang Wanxiu said softly.

"I see. Famines were indeed common in ancient times." Lü Tianshou immediately said, "How much grain does Lin An plan to need? If it's not much, just a few tens of thousands of tons, I can arrange for it to be transported."

"but."

He added, "If we need hundreds of thousands of tons, we need to have legitimate channels." He further stated, "I believe many countries around the world, including our own, would be willing to export goods to help people in ancient times who were suffering from war and famine."

Lin An didn't really understand how grain import and export were handled, but he could understand the implication in Lü Tianshou's words.

Lu Tianshou probed his views on the outside world and the domestic situation to see if he was willing to engage with the authorities.

Lin An had already thought it through last night, so he said directly, "Then thank you very much, President Lü. Here's the thing, I'd like to recruit 100,000 disaster victims from Shun Kingdom to come to my island to help with the work. They need material support in all aspects, including food, clothing, and shelter. I would appreciate it if you could see if you could find any connections so we can discuss loans."

"or--"

He said, "If Mr. Lü can get in touch with the leaders in China, I can sell a damaged landing ship, the one you just saw, so we won't have to borrow money from the bank."

The conference room on the offshore drilling platform fell silent instantly.

This is absolutely explosive news!

What they just witnessed may not spread, and even if they did, no one would believe it. But if Lin An were to make a deal with China and sell an alien spaceship, it would definitely cause a global sensation!

Lu Tianshou couldn't even imagine how the US, Europe, and Japan would react if they knew about this; wouldn't it immediately trigger a war?

Bombard alien islands with nuclear weapons? Seize alien spaceships?!

Or were they afraid to offend Lin An, who controlled the alien warship, and instead tried to intercept it midway?

"I'll contact your supervisor right away!"

Lu Tianshou didn't dare to waste a second and quickly picked up his phone to leave the meeting room to make contact.

Su Zhuoyao, Amberley, Wang Wanxiu, and others from a world outside Earth didn't have much to say about selling a landing ship. Many things on Earth were unfamiliar to them, and they learned about Earth through Lin An.

But Lin An's colleagues, including Song Quan, had mixed feelings about it.

My former colleague who worked with me at sea has now become a big shot whose every move can cause global changes, and there will definitely be more news about him in the future.

Alien spaceships, alternate universes, parallel universes—any one of these could keep scientists studying for centuries.

"These cookies are pretty good, you should try some."

Lin An tasted the snacks, cookies, and fruit that Manager Liu had brought out, and then let Wanxiu have some too. This little girl hadn't eaten a full meal until yesterday and was still very thin.

"Um."

Wang Wanxiu did not refuse. She picked up a bag of potato chips, tried to tear it open, and ate the contents.

potato chips?

I don't know what it's made of, but it tastes crisp and delicious, with a slight spiciness, and it's really tasty.

Su Zhuoyao and Su Zhenzhen each took a bag of snacks. The two sisters huddled together to figure out how to eat them. After eating an Oreo, Su Zhenzhen's eyes lit up. She grinned and showed her fox teeth, crunching away as crunches fell from the corners of her mouth, completely unconcerned about her image.

Strangely, her rough eating habits did not diminish her beauty at all; on the contrary, they gave her a natural and pure girlish beauty.

"Beautiful women look good no matter what they do!" Jiang Tianheng whispered to Song Quan, who wholeheartedly agreed.

Amberlie also tried a cookie, but only one before switching to Earth fruits. According to Song Quan's observation, this holy and beautiful elf ate a total of four cherries, two slices of cantaloupe, and a small piece of apple.

Compared to the two beauties who cultivate immortality, her beauty has a more goddess-like quality.

"Can I ask them some questions?" Amberley gently wiped her mouth with a tissue and turned to Lin An.

"Of course, what would you like to ask?"

Lin An then translated her words to Song Quan and the others.

"Please ask me," Manager Liu said immediately and warmly.

Although it wasn't an official meeting, this was definitely the first time Earthlings and elves from another world had met.

Well, not counting Lin An.

"How deep is this island, built at sea?" Amberley asked, then said to Lin An, "I remember Mr. Lin said that it was used for oil extraction."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, I used to work here."

Lin An said that he could actually answer the question, but he would translate for her and Manager Liu so that they could answer it.

"Did you work here before, young master?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Wanxiu glanced at the furnishings inside the room a few more times, looked out the window at the scene, imagined Young Master Lin working at sea, and thought of yesterday when Young Master Lin first summoned her to the sea.
