Chapter 1328 A Strange Well

Kong Fandong smiled bitterly and shook his head. In his opinion, Shi Lei's words reflected the young man's character.

After all, such two-year-old words are really not something that Shi Lei, who has always been mature and prudent, can say.

But this also made Kong Fandong give up his last trace of vigilance. Since it was not a written contract, there was no need to be strict, as long as there was a limit in each other's minds. In Kong Fandong's view, whether this contract can be executed depends entirely on his wish.

And in this way, he also felt a little grateful for Shi Lei's trust.

He would never know that the verbal contract and keeping everything simple were not because Shi Lei had a broad mind, but because Shi Lei was confident. No one in Heika dared to violate the contract.

At least, at this moment, Kong Fandong was sincere and felt that he must fulfill this contract seriously even for Shi Lei's trust in him.

As for Shi Lei, when he announced that the contract came into effect and everything was as Kong Fandong wished, he immediately called up the intimacy card in his mind, then filled in Kong Fandong's name in the search box and conducted an intimacy query.

The query results were completely in accordance with Shi Lei's intention, showing a perfect score of 100%.

Now, Shi Lei could finally feel at ease and transfer the patented technology to Kong Fandong without reservation.

The next day, Kong Fandong's lawyer had drafted an agreement. The agreement stated that Shi Lei would license the patent to the institute for use for a minimum period of twenty years. After expiration, the contract would be renewed free of charge, while Kong Fandong would pay 5% of the institute's fees. Shi Lei's shares were given to Shi Lei, and Shi Lei's shareholding in the institute became 15%.

Shi Lei signed the agreement, said goodbye to Kong Fandong and left Spring City that day.

When they were at the airport, Kong Yue made a call. As soon as Shi Lei answered the call, Kong Yue scolded: "Hey, you guy, you came to Spring City and hid in the research institute for half a month without showing up. I I heard my dad say yesterday that the research was finally over, and I was planning to make a dinner date with you today, but you ran away without even saying hello? "

Shi Lei laughed and said, "You'd better make an appointment with Xiao Bai, I'm afraid he will misunderstand."

"I misunderstood your sister! Can you be normal?" Kong Yue fumed.

Shi Lei chatted with her on the phone for a few words, saying that he still had something to do, and Kong Yue finally let him go.

Back in Wudong, it was almost mid-September, which meant that nearly half of Shi Lei's quota cycle had passed.

He didn't use much of the credit during this credit cycle. He only used the 20 million installment for the villa for the Qian family, and the more than 10 million paid to the Eye of Dark Night, plus some of his expenses in Haiti and Spring City. , added together, it’s only over one million.

He still hasn't spent a penny of the more than 60 million left.

Of course, 30 million of the non-revenue investment amount can be spent at any time. He only needs to transfer this money to Kong Fandong. He still owes Kong Fandong 170 million in research and development funds.

In addition, he can also open a city dungeon. However, there are only 10 million left in this period. It seems that it is not very cost-effective to open a city dungeon. Even if it is used as a down payment, it is a bit too little, which is really not conducive to his entry. Consumption after next level.

Of course, there is also 10 million collection consumption.

This also means that what Shi Lei is really urgent about only has less than 20 million to spend, which does not seem to be too difficult.

I called my parents, but Gao Yan and Shi Zhongping were not in Xicheng at all. Now their company's business has expanded rapidly, and they are already taking over the market in all cities in Qixuan. Even Qi Yue, who was led by Kong Yue, decided to hand over the after-sales service to Shi Lei's parents. This part originally only had cost and no profit, and it was quite troublesome. Giving it to Shi Lei's parents would undoubtedly save them. A lot of things.

Although the cost may be slightly higher than doing it on his own, it can be regarded as Kong Yue reciprocating a favor and repaying Shi Lei's favor little by little.

In Kong Yue's view, whether it was her father's research institute or Qi Yue, their family owed Shi Lei a lot of favors.

On the phone, Gao Yan complained to Shi Lei, saying that he was too busy now. If he bought the house in Xicheng, it would be as if he hadn't bought it. He couldn't live in it for three or five days a month, and it was all at the beginning of the month. The old couple had to go back to Xicheng to host the house. The overall situation can only stay for a few days.

Shi Lei smiled and chatted with her mother for a few words. Gao Yan urged her to have a meeting again, so she could only hang up Shi Lei's phone in a hurry.

Since his parents were not in Xicheng, and it seemed that they would not be able to go back until early October, Shi Lei packed up two changes of clothes and drove straight to Xicheng.

After obtaining the second mechanical application card, Shi Lei had no trouble finding hidden mechanisms.

Almost just over an hour after entering the house, Shi Lei discovered that there was a problematic well in the yard between the first and second houses.

Water wells were of course a must-have for ancient people at home. When ancient people built a house, they first had to survey the ground to see if it was possible to drill a well, especially in such deep courtyards.

However, the location of this well is very strange.

Generally speaking, most water wells are located in the backyard, because the kitchen, laundry room, etc. are all arranged in the corners of the backyard. Of course, the water well needs to be closer to these places.

However, this well was dug between the two entrances.

The first thing you enter into this house is the living room, reception hall, study room, and wing rooms on both sides for the servants to live in.

The second entrance is the owner's rooms. Behind the west wing is a separate small courtyard, which is where the kitchen, laundry room, etc. are located.

It is obviously against common sense to place the well between the two entrances.

It is not convenient for servants to work, nor is it convenient for the owner to enter and exit. It is impossible to say that every time the owner passes by here, he will see a bunch of people drawing water in the yard, right?

Moreover, the yard is full of various flowers and plants, and it is really inconvenient to make such a well here.

More importantly, the backyard of this house is adjacent to a river. Ancient people were not as particular as modern people. They lived by the mountains and rivers. With a river, there is really no need to dig a well.

For this reason, Shi Lei also deliberately learned about this ancient street. Many shops on this street are actually rebuilt from old houses. Shi Lei went around and did not find a second well here.

This made him more certain of his idea.

After purchasing some materials, Shi Lei built a pulley device beside the well, which helped him go up and down.

Everything was ready, and Shi Lei went down the well.

Not long after going down, Shi Lei encountered the water surface. It looked like all the wells, and there was nothing wrong with it.

However, as soon as Shi Lei sank his body under the water, he found the problem, because the water in the well actually felt like it was flowing. Even in this narrow well, he could feel the water around his body flowing slowly, and it lacked the feeling of the well water being cold and piercing.

Wearing goggles, Shi Lei turned on the waterproof emergency light in the water, and he immediately saw that there was obviously a mechanism buried deep behind the well wall.

With his deep understanding of the mechanism now, Shi Lei quickly found the key.
