My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife

Chapter 1320 - 1318: A Show of Force

After arranging the matters at the base properly, since there was Yang Cao in charge, Yang Chen was no longer needed to stay here, and moreover, he needed to visit the artificial sea.Leaving the base, Yang Chen planned to take Ye Xin back to the Ye family first.

Upon returning to the Ye family, seeing Yang Chen and Ye Xin return, everyone in the Ye family was very pleased.

In fact, these families, though seemingly enjoying high social standing and wealth, bear far more than what they gain.

Take Ye Xin for example, every time she goes out on a mission, it’s a torment for the Ye family. Because with each mission, all sorts of outcomes are possible. Of course, they also prepare themselves for the worst-case scenarios.

Both Master Ye and Hu Yaxin were home, but Ye Liangcai was with the guard and hadn’t returned. As for Ye Liangdong, he was stationed with the guard in a foreign land for years and seldom came back.

Hu Yaxin pulled Ye Xin aside to ask questions, while Master Ye remained silent nearby.

After a while, Ye Xin knew that Master Ye had something to say to them, so she let Hu Yaxin leave first.

Once Hu Yaxin left, the room returned to silence.

None of the three spoke, creating an oppressive atmosphere.

After a long pause, Master Ye finally spoke slowly.

"This time... it seems your mission was not completed perfectly."

All along, Yang Chen and Ye Xin had no record of failure in their missions, completing them all flawlessly.

Yet this time, they let Shimura Shinko escape, resulting in a parasitic entity being leaked, and the impact was extremely serious.

Yang Chen slightly frowned, looking at Master Ye, without responding.

Because Yang Chen knew that Master Ye was very aware of what happened and what they did in Xibo.

"The old chief over there seems displeased. The parasite... is too dangerous, and it’s been leaked to Beihai Country. Although it’s a time of peace, Beihai Country has always been hostile to us, and it would be very troublesome if this thing fell into their hands."

Yang Chen nodded slightly, "I understand."

Master Ye gave Yang Chen a long look, saying, "I think you should understand, for those in power, this kind of situation is very unfavorable."

Yang Chen nodded slightly, indicating his understanding.

Ye Xin, however, said dissatisfiedly, "We’ve already done our best; the other side had a carrier escort, and they’ve already exited the public sea. If we attacked further, it could have caused a dispute!"

"I know." Master Ye sighed, stopping short of saying more.

The scene returned to silence again.

Because everyone understood the circumstances well, saying more would be pointless, all were deep in thought.

At this moment, Yang Chen suddenly said, "Master, I think you should call Uncle Ye back for once."

"Hmm?" Master Ye looked at Yang Chen in confusion.

"I have stayed with the Ye family for quite some time, and the old chief must have already known. I will first go to the artificial sea, and after I return, I will discuss with you and Uncle Ye in detail." Yang Chen stood up.

Master Ye was silent for a moment, and after some thought, he nodded slowly, "I will send someone to take you there, and when you get back, talk to Liangcai."

"Alright!" Yang Chen stood up, looking at Ye Xin.

"Then go quickly and return." Ye Xin was somewhat worried.

Yang Chen smiled, "It’s okay."

Ye family prepared a car and driver, and Yang Chen got into the car, rushing towards the artificial sea.

The Ye family’s vehicle was cleared to enter the artificial sea, and after identifying himself, it was allowed through following a simple inspection.

When he arrived at the old chief’s study, the old chief was still reviewing documents.

The old chief’s secretary brought Yang Chen into the room, and without raising his head, the old chief just said, "Wait a moment, I need to handle a few documents."

Yang Chen didn’t say much, sitting on the sofa, and casually picked up a newspaper to read.

After about half an hour, a high-ranking leader hurried over.

Seeing Yang Chen, the high-ranking leader wiped the sweat off his face, "Xiaoyang, I made you wait."

Yang Chen glanced at him, saying calmly, "It’s alright, it’s only been half an hour."

The high-ranking leader felt a bit awkward, glancing at the old chief still processing documents, explaining to Yang Chen, "Recently, there’s been a lot to do, so the old chief is quite busy."

"Understood." Yang Chen responded blandly, without even lifting his eyes off the newspaper.

The high-ranking leader glanced at the old chief again, seeing no response, he could only sit beside Yang Chen, waiting with him.

About ten minutes later, Yang Chen put down the newspaper, looking towards the high-ranking leader: "Are all those warships dealt with?"

"Indeed." The high-ranking leader, appearing very eager upon hearing Yang Chen speak, said: "They have already been towed to the factory, and some experts have already developed certain technologies. In fact, these things, they just lacked samples, technologically, much of it is pretty straightforward, we can deduce it through reverse engineering. Once these technologies are applied to our own warships, it will be a different situation."

Yang Chen looked at the high-ranking leader and said, "We have quite a bit of our own technology, it doesn’t seem inferior to theirs."

"That’s true, in terms of combat capability and durability, there are no issues. But in terms of craftsmanship, we still have a large gap, along with some sophisticated technologies we don’t possess, and when it comes to electronic devices, we still have certain shortcomings."

Yang Chen nodded slightly, lost in thought.

Though Flame Country has developed rapidly, there still exists a considerable gap in technology compared to developed countries.

The reason is simple, Flame Country started developing rather late, and fundamentally, there’s an innate gap with these developed countries. But looking from behind, the speed of progress in Flame Country has already astonished the world, leaving everyone in awe. However, in terms of high technology, due to the existence of a simple ban, the upward potential space for Flame Country has been blocked; it can only rely on its own hands, groping upwards bit by bit.

All in all, reaching such a stage, Flame Country’s development is already very astonishing.

"This time, still, we have to thank you, if not for your decisive choice, it would have been tough to let Beihai Country suffer such a silent loss, giving us so many warships for free." The high-ranking leader laughed.

The high-ranking leader still hopes to see more situations like this, after all, as much as possible is desired for Flame Country to become more powerful.

In history, there have been many such events.

It might feel poignant when said, that we can only pick up others’ broken things to research on our own, and rely on our reverse engineering to get the technology we want.

But nevertheless, Flame Country’s self-reliance and self-strengthening have allowed it to develop to the stage it is today with its own hands!

At this moment, the old chief seemed to have finished dealing with his official duties, putting down the pen, and putting away the documents, looking towards both of them.

He seemed to only now notice the high-ranking leader was here, standing up, "Oh, you’re here too, high-ranking leader!"

The high-ranking leader awkwardly smiled, saying to the old chief, "I heard Yang Chen came, so I hurried over."

"Oh! Then you got the news quite promptly." The old chief seemed to imply something.

At this point, both of them had been waiting for the old chief for an hour.

Yang Chen was well aware that this was the old chief giving him a bit of a hard time.
