In Jin Feng's previous life, there was a star who was worth hundreds of millions. She was beautiful and had an incredible figure. She was Jin Feng's goddess when he was a child.
But later on, he met an unkind person and lived a depressed life for a long time, leading to depression and eventually committing suicide.
Jin Feng saw the news and sighed for a long time. He also understood that in life, it is difficult to have both ends.
The poor have the troubles of the poor, the rich have the troubles of the rich, and the superiors also have the troubles of the superiors.
In his previous life, he was worried about tuition and living expenses when he was in school, and worried about his job after working. After coming to this world, he has stood at the top of worldly power and can get almost everything he wants, but he still has troubles.
Jin Feng had read a saying in his previous life, saying that this was caused by human greed. No matter how rich or successful you are, you will never be satisfied. This mountain looks higher than that.
It is also said that this is a genetic defect of human beings and the driving force behind human progress.
It is precisely because you are never satisfied that you work hard to learn and change.
If human beings are just satisfied with having enough food and clothing, then society will stay at this stage forever.
In fact, it's not that Jin Feng doesn't understand this truth, but as a normal person, he will feel guilty.
It's just that Jin Feng has now learned to hide his emotions. If Xiao'e hadn't suddenly asked that pointed question, he wouldn't have lost his composure.
If he were outside, even if someone asked, Jin Feng would control his emotions, but when he returned home, there were no outsiders, and he didn't want to pretend anymore.
Jin Feng sat on the stone until midnight, thinking a lot, and his mood basically calmed down.
During the whole process, Guan Xiaorou stayed with him. Seeing that Jin Feng didn't want to talk, she didn't have anything to say. She just sat next to Jin Feng and stayed with him silently.
In the distant East China Sea, a bodyguard stood on an observation deck, looking down boredly.
It was already midnight, the ships transporting kelp had stopped, and the fishing fleets had also returned. The sea was quiet except for occasional noises from the factories on the shore behind them.
"Uncle Lao Tian, the ugly time has come, you should go back and rest quickly."
A teenage escort climbed up the ladder.
"Okay," the old escort yawned, took off his raincoat and handed it to the new escort.
"I don't need it, it's too hot." The escort who just came up took the raincoat and put it aside.
"Put it on, the mosquitoes here can eat people!" said the old escort: "Didn't you listen to the newspaper? Being bitten by a mosquito is not only itchy, but you may also get an infectious disease. This is how malaria is transmitted."
After saying that, he took the coir raincoat and put it on the little escort.
"Okay," the young escort sighed and tied the belt of his coir raincoat: "Uncle Tian, please go back and rest quickly. You have to get up for morning exercises tomorrow morning."
"Okay," the old escort nodded and was about to go down when he suddenly saw a red light appearing in the northeast.
The old escort quickly turned around and walked quickly to the railing.
"Uncle Lao Tian, is that a sounding arrow?" The young escort also followed.
Not only do sound arrows make sounds, the fireworks carried by the arrows also explode, making them very conspicuous at night.
"Can't see clearly!" The old escort shook his head and picked up the telescope.
"How is it?" the little escort asked.
"It should be the sounding arrow from our escort agency, but it's too dark and the distance is too far to see clearly!" The old escort tried hard to adjust the focus of the telescope.
"Since there are noisy arrows, it means we are brothers, but the fishing boats have returned to the team, the ships of the kelp transport team have also returned, and the ships of the navy brothers are also at the dock. No one is outside?" The little escort asked doubtfully:
"Who fired the arrow?"
"I don't know either," the old escort shook his head solemnly. He was considering whether to notify his superiors and send someone over to take a look. He saw the fireworks burned out and disappeared.

Then, a little below where the fireworks appeared, a flickering fire appeared. It looked like someone had lit the brazier.
Then the fire suddenly disappeared and reappeared a second later.
"It's the language of lanterns, Uncle Tian, it's the language of lanterns!"
The little escort pointed at the fire and shouted: "It must be one of our own!"
There were no telephones these days, so the means of instant communication were beacon towers and semaphores.
Semaphore is easy to use during the day, but nothing can be seen at night.
In order to solve the problem of emergency communication at night, Jin Feng developed this method of using firelight to convey messages.
The opponent first fired a resounding arrow, and now it fired a lantern signal. It was basically confirmed that it was one of our own.
But the old escort still didn't dare to be careless. He took out a piece of thick cloth from the box next to him, stood in front of the brazier for a second, then squatted down, then stood up again holding the thick cloth, and then squatted down again.
If you look at it from the opposite angle, the fire on the observation deck goes out for a while, then lights up, and then goes out again.
This is a signal for the other party to identify themselves.
Then, the old escort picked up the telescope and stared into the distance.
After a while, a new firelight lit up next to the previous firelight.
This means the other party understands.
Then the newly lit fire began to flicker with varying lengths.
Both the old escort and the young escort stared at the distance, fearing to miss any flicker.
Half a minute later, the young escort slammed the railing: "Uncle Tian, it's the Jinchuan! It's the Jinchuan back!"
"Yes, the Jinchuan is back!" The old escort was also very excited: "Ni Gouzi, you continue on duty, I will inform the battalion commander!"
After saying that, without waiting for the little escort to reply, he slid down the rope next to the ladder, and then ran towards the camp.
The Jinchuan was the building ship that went to chase the pirates before. According to Jin Feng's speculation, they would be able to come back in a month at most, but it turned out that they didn't come back for several months.
Everyone thought they were in danger, but they appeared again.
Not long after the old escort ran back to the camp, he ran out again.
Behind him was Daqiang, who didn't even have time to put on his clothes and only wore a pair of shorts.
Daqiang rushed to the observation deck, asked the old escort to read the code again, and then patted the railing as excitedly as the young escort.
"Quickly, go notify General Zheng and tell him that the Jinchuan is back!"
Daqiang shouted to the old escort before he could go back and get dressed.
The old escort went straight to the navy camp again.
Although the navy has now come under Jin Feng's command, and the cooperation with the escort is very close, the escort and the navy are not the same unit. It took a lot of effort for the old escort to enter the navy camp and meet Zheng Chiyuan.
But when I came out, it was much faster.
Zheng Chiyuan, like Da Qiang, rushed out of the navy camp with his old escort and went straight to the observation deck.
At this time, Daqiang had already dressed and came over. He found that Zheng Chiyuan was only wearing a nightgown and his hair was loose. He couldn't help but teased: "General Zheng, why did you go out without even putting on your clothes?"
