This was the happiest ti of Zhang nglong's friends' lives, but for Kaibong's Cabinet and the Dark Ninjas, it was the darkest ti of their lives.
To say they slaved and toiled for them would be an overstatent. Even bootlickers weren't as sycophantic as they were. If one had to use an adjective to describe them, it would be "wolf-lickers"!
Every day, Zhang nglong and the others demanded the freshest ingredients, with the average cost of a al for each person amounting to about twenty to thirty thousand dollars; even if breakfast was sowhat inferior, a day's spend was at least fifty thousand dollars!
For nearly two hundred people, that was ten million dollars, and in just ten days, one hundred million dollars!
And that was just for three als a day.
Not to ntion anything else, just the aircraft carrier that accompanied them for ten days of fishing, with various consumptions and direct and indirect costs, amounted to several billion dollars!
As for use, wear, travel, and so on, when all the miscellaneous expenses were added up, the figure was astronomical!
An incomplete tally revealed that during Zhang nglong's stay in Kaibong, the funds consud reached tens of billions of dollars!
Zhang nglong was going back to his country tomorrow!
Upon hearing this news, the Cabinet and the Dark Ninjas were almost jumping for joy; they even wanted to throw a party to celebrate this beautiful and morable day!
This devil was finally leaving!
It wasn't that Zhang nglong no longer wanted to ss with them. He was simply tired of playing and couldn't think of any new tricks; he had run out of ideas!
In ten days, Noki Kimura hadn't closed his eyes for a single day; his hair had even turned half white, and he was an Enhanced Human with cellular activity dozens of tis higher than that of an ordinary person! Yet in just ten days, they had managed to torture him into this state!
At the airport, a convoy slowly pulled up to the boarding gate. Today's Capital City airport was restricted to all flights, and almost 80% of the airspace was reserved for Zhang nglong's private plane.
To send off Zhang nglong, Noki Kimura represented the Dark Ninjas, and soone from the Cabinet attended, despite ten days of tornt. They were both brimming with excitent, knowing that once Zhang nglong left, they would be liberated.
"I truly appreciate the ticulous care you've all shown during this ti!" Zhang nglong was sincere with this remark; they had managed to fulfill all his requests to the letter, not missing a single one. He had to admit, they were indeed dedicated to their jobs, and he wished he could award each of them a model worker certificate.
"As long as Mr. Zhang is satisfied, that's great!" said the Cabinet representative, humbly, "There may have been so conflicts between us and your country in the past. We hope Mr. Zhang can see our sincerity this ti. If we could turn our weapons into gifts of silk, that would be best!"
Zhang nglong's expression chilled, "I'm sorry, but your repentance seems sincere. However, I don't think I, Zhang nglong, have the right to forgive you on behalf of those warriors who sacrificed themselves."
The Cabinet representative's face clearly showed embarrassnt. He knew it was wishful thinking, but he hadn't expected Zhang nglong to be so uncompromising.
"Of course, considering your efforts, I won't hold you accountable for this matter. But that person, I will pursue to the end. If I find out that you are harboring him, I will co again, and next ti, it won't be as simple as bringing just two hundred people!" Zhang nglong warned.
"Certainly! Certainly!" said the Cabinet representative, no longer pretending to misunderstand, "If we have any news about that person, we will inform Mr. Zhang imdiately. You know, he's very powerful, even our Nin Emperor can't suppress him. Getting rid of him would be a good thing for us."
"I hope you truly believe that," Zhang nglong scoffed.
"Wait, Zhang nglong, we forgot one thing!" said a friend suddenly by Zhang nglong's side.
"What's that?" asked Zhang nglong.
"This is our first ti in Kaibong; we should take so souvenirs back, right?" Xu Li suggested.
"Yeah, a friend of mine asked
to bring back so posters and limited edition CDs. You know what I an!"
"I suspect that 'friend' you're talking about is yourself!"
"But it's a good point indeed!" agreed Zhang nglong, nodding. They had been too busy indulging in fun and luxury in the past days; whatever they craved was imdiately served, whatever they needed was promptly prepared. And now, as they were about to leave, they realized that they hadn't actually bought anything.

"This airport must have a souvenir shop, right? Let's go check it out."
"Alright!"
"Zhang nglong, could you wait for us a bit?"
"Why all the trouble?" Zhang nglong's lips curled into a slight arc, "Our friends from Kaibong who had such a good ti this ti are so enthusiastic, they must have prepared so farewell gifts for us, right, Mr. Noki? Mr. Juejing?"
"It's your dad! Preparing your mom!" Noki Kimura and Juejing Yu looked at each other, knowing that Zhang nglong was obviously trying to squeeze one last bit out of them before leaving!
"Our Huaxia is a nation of courtesy, during such partings, we usually exchange so souvenirs!" said Zhang nglong, "Friends, let's see if we have anything on us to give to our friends from Kaibong as a nto."
"Hmm," Xu Li nodded, "This is the hat that's been with
for 3 months, I will painfully part with it and give it to Mr. Noki."
Noki Kimura forced a smile, unsure what to do. This was just a plain hat that cost 15 Yuan; on so treasure site, it might even co with free shipping for 9.99 Yuan.
They had spent so much manpower and resources to host them, and this was what they were offering in return? This friendship seed rather cheap, didn't it?
"What's wrong? Mr. Noki looks down on my friend's friendship?"
"No, no, no!" Noki Kimura hurriedly took it, "Such a valuable gift, how can I dare to accept it?"
"It's fine, later you can give sothing valuable in return," said Zhang nglong, "Old Xu, what do you want? Don't be shy, just ask, our friends are most hospitable."
"Exactly, exactly, Mr. Xu, just say anything, whether it's a local specialty or a souvenir, we will prepare it for you.
"emmm... I don't really want anything."
Noki Kimura breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then just give
that car!"
"Car?" Noki Kimura turned around, and what Xu Li was pointing at was a Lamborghini, worth over 6.5 million!
"Mr. Noki doesn't seem very willing?"
"Hahaha, it's just a car, I'll arrange for soone to get it through customs for you in a couple of days!" Noki Kimura turned and wiped away a tear, knowing Zhang nglong was ruthless, but not realizing his friend was even more so.
Wasn't it agreed that gifts should be reciprocal? Why did they only have a trashy hat worth 9.99 Yuan with free shipping, while they had to give a sports car worth millions in return?
"This is my gift!" Sun Yulei handed over his half-drunk bottle of mineral water, "Though the gift is light, the sentint is deep, I don't want anything either, just give
that Rolls-Royce!"
"This is the Qingfeng brand tissue I brought from Huaxia, symbolizing the deepest friendship between our two countries. I plan to propose to my girlfriend next month, how about you give
a diamond ring? The diamond doesn't need to be too big, three to five carats will do, but the color and cut must be good!"
"This is half a pack of sanitary pads I've used, which are very precious to us girls! Yesterday, I passed by a store and saw a bunch of pink diamond earrings in a display case, it was only about 200 million US dollars, can I have them?"
"I didn't prepare any gift either, here's a booger for you, I just want a set of limited edition signed CDs from Momotani teacher!"
"I... I'll perform a split for you, I don't want anything from you either. I saw Mr. Noki's daughter yesterday, she's pretty, and I don't mind an international romance..."
Noki Kimura: "Are you even human?"
