Road to becoming the wealthiest: Starting From Treasure Hunting in the Cabinets
Chapter 750 - 460: Seems like the luck slot has never been empty? Got another gain?

Chapter 750: Chapter 460: Seems like the luck slot has never been empty? Got another gain?

After dinner, Sean Knight waited until midnight at the villa. When Elijah Hastings didn’t call, he and Lana Brown went to rest together.

Knowing they had matters to attend to the next day, they didn’t tire themselves out too much, only having their way two or three times.

When they finished, Lana Brown let out a sigh, saying:

"Don’t blame me for always clinging onto you... If I can spend three months a year with you, I’d be satisfied. But the reality is, let alone three months, I doubt we can even manage one month with how things are now..."

Sean Knight didn’t respond. Who could he blame for being such a bum?

He was beginning to understand Jesse Hill’s feelings.

Always on the road, unable to stop. Even if he did feel like pausing once in a while, every time there was a new clue or some time had passed, he would immediately set off again, full of energy.

And so, Sean Knight couldn’t promise Lana anything. Promising something he couldn’t deliver was worse than not promising anything at all.

Lana too, was speaking out of frustration. Sean knew that when he wasn’t around, Lana focused entirely on the construction and tourism business on the big island.

Keeping busy left her with less time to worry.

She wasn’t one to make trouble, and that’s why Sean dared to introduce Lana as his girlfriend to his family when they visited.

This was also a reward for Lana’s efforts.

This time, when she came over, Lana directly transferred one million dollars to Sean.

According to Lana, it should have been more. But due to the heavy investment in tourism, this was what she could spare from the profits.

Sean looked at the account book Lana gave him, knew that she had already allocated the budget for construction, and accepted the money.

This was a matter of attitude.

Sean also realized that, at least for now, Lana wasn’t building this island for money, but for business.

And it was clear to everyone that once the mask incident was over, domestic tourism would see explosive growth. The revenge tourism would definitely last for a considerable amount of time.

With the reputation of the big island already established, Lana confidently told Sean that they could expect to receive one million tourists in the second half of the year!

Sean was taken aback!

According to Lana’s previous statistics, each tourist spent an average of eight thousand dollars on the island.

If there were one million tourists, that would be several billion dollars!

Even if the profit was only 10%, it would be quite shocking!

And this was still on the basis of imperfect tourism facilities!

Sean really hadn’t expected that a stray move would turn out to be his biggest source of income, outside of treasure hunting.

Lana was truly talented!

That’s why Sean insisted on buying a speedboat specifically dedicated to marine patrol.

This was a money-generating machine!

Once it starts to flourish, there will undoubtedly be those who are envious. That’s when they’ll have to show their teeth.

As long as the procedures are in place, and they have military force, the development of the big island won’t stop.

When Sean woke up early the next morning, he found that Lana was no longer in bed.

Sean couldn’t understand it; she had claimed to be so tired last night, yet now she seemed to have recovered faster than he did.

After freshening up, Sean found Lana preparing breakfast.

"Why didn’t you let the cook do it?" Sean asked, "You could have slept a bit more."

"I gave the cook a holiday since you’re here." Lana said while making porridge, "I just want to experience our time alone."

"Alright, alright, whatever you say." Sean leaned against the kitchen entrance, watching Lana work.

"Huh? You can make egg with garlic?" Sean was surprised looking at Lana’s actions.

"I learned it from mom when you went to Africa," Lana said with some pride, "Egg tea, egg with garlic — our service area just received some new garlic, so I remembered when mom mentioned it."

Sean naturally knew that the "mom" Lana referred to was his own mother.

While he was away in Africa, his family had been taken care of by Lana, and they must have gotten along well.

Before long, breakfast was served.

A plate of braised beef, a plate of scrambled eggs with green peppers, one egg with garlic, and an egg tea.

The porridge was pumpkin and sweet potato; it had been simmering for a while, and the pumpkin and sweet potato were almost dissolved.

"Here, drink the egg tea first to reduce the heat."

Sean looked at Lana with amusement, and she blushed under his gaze, serving him the bowl of egg tea.

After drinking the egg tea, Sean took a bite of the scrambled eggs with green pepper and said, "Hmm, it tastes good."

"Mom said you were used to having hot dishes for breakfast every morning. Back in the day, they cooked potato shreds, scrambled eggs with green peppers, cowpeas with chili peppers and egg... I’ll make all of these for you over the next few days!"

Sean nodded silently, took a warm bun, broke it open, put some egg with garlic in it, closed the bun, bit into it savagely, and the feeling... came flooding back.

"So?" Lana looked at Sean with anticipation, "How’s the taste?"

"Very good!" Sean said before taking another bite, "This is just it!"

Lana laughed happily.

Sean was deeply moved.

Of all the girls he had dated, only Lana actively learnt about his preferences, and whenever he was around, she would put aside her work and personally prepare meals to please him.
