    Indeed, Bawang required three such gargantuan whales to satiate its hunger, amounting to 100 tons of nourishment. The sheer magnitude of its consumption was genuinely awe-inspiring.


    Teasingly, Liu Yong responded, "You possess an insatiable appetite. Fortunately, you procure your own food, or else I would struggle to amodate your voracity."


    Bawang yfully retorted, "Master, with your immense wealth, fret not over the prospect of me impoverishing you."


    Bawang inquired, "Master, you relish the taste of beef and mutton. How does it tantalize your pte? When can you arrange for some cattle and sheep for me to savor?"


    -Haha!


    Amidstughter, Liu Yong reprimanded, "Enough of your musings, my friend. Content yourself with a diet of fish." Their camaraderie through conversation brought joy to Liu Yong''s heart. After some time, Kang Zhenggang''s voice prated his consciousness, interrupting their delightful exchange.


    "Boss, we have arrived at the Huahai International Garden," Kang Zhenggang announced.
