Chapter 869: Barrier
“Hey, Manager Bai, you’re here.”
As soon as the two of them reached the warehouse, the person Bai Zhou had spent money to hire to look after the warehouse welcomed them.
Usually, a warehouse manager was an older man in his fifties. However, the person Bai Zhou hired looked to be in his early thirties. He was burly and tall and was a retired soldier.
After all, colored steel gla.s.s was expensive and had to be overseen. If anything went wrong, it would undoubtedly cause a ma.s.sive loss to the company.
“Brother Liu Fei, I’m here to look at the gla.s.s. Please help me open the door,” Bai Zhou immediately said to Liu Fei.
Liu Fei looked at him and nodded. “Alright, follow me.”
They went straight to warehouse number one. There were three hard copper locks on the thick iron door. Taking advantage of the time when Liu Fei opened the door, Bai Zhou whispered to Jian Ai, “I asked Chi Yang to set up a barrier outside the warehouse. It can be considered a double protection.”
Barrier?
Jian Ai was shocked but then delighted. “Chi Yang knows how to set up a barrier?”
“Of course.” Bai Zhou smiled and nodded with a proud look. “He has auxiliary mental cultivation techniques, and his level is very high. Casting a barrier is a piece of cake for him.”
Jian Ai found it novel because she only saw barriers in ancient dramas. She had always thought they were made up, but she did not expect them to exist.
“What’s the use of this barrier?” Jian Ai asked with interest.
Bai Zhou thought for a moment and explained, “There are many types of barriers. This time, Chi Yang set up a protective barrier that could withstand fire, explosions, and other external forces. I’m afraid someone will have designs on the colored steel gla.s.s. After all, our project plan has never been kept secret from the public. Moreover, the Jian Group attacked our company a while ago, so we must be careful.”
Jian Ai nodded in understanding. “That’s quite powerful. I thought the barrier would be a protective layer that isolated the outside world from the inside.”
Bai Zhou smiled when he heard that. “Of course, there are such barriers, but there’s more than one type of barrier. This kind of barrier often appears in martial arts novels, right?”
Jian Ai smiled and nodded.
After the door opened, Liu Fei waited outside alone. Jian Ai followed Bai Zhou into the warehouse.
There were very bright lights in the warehouse. Under the light, the colored steel gla.s.s would emit colorful lights. However, the gla.s.s in the warehouse was covered by a black curtain.
They were piled high and everywhere.
Seeing a piece of gla.s.s in the corner, Jian Ai walked forward. The gla.s.s was about two meters long and wide. Even though dust had covered it, it was still colorful and beautiful.
“It’s so beautiful.” Jian Ai couldn’t help but exclaim. No wonder she reacted in this manner. She had never seen colored steel gla.s.s so close in her previous life.
She raised her hand and knocked on the gla.s.s surface, making a slightly heavy sound.
This was because colored steel gla.s.s was made from a natural ore that had been processed. Although it was called gla.s.s, its essence was still stone. It could also be said to be transparent stone.
It was incomparably hard and heavy.
“Just the cost of this piece, coupled with all the expenses such as sea transportation and tariffs from Qiusi to China, is almost a million yuan,” Bai Zhou said.
Jian Ai nodded in understanding. This type of gla.s.s was the most expensive gla.s.s in the world. A small country like Qiusi could rank in the top ten global wealth rankings because of its colored steel gla.s.s.
