I, Yan Jiefang, will live to 2025 in this courtyard house.

In those days, there were very few outsiders who regularly traveled to Pingtan; they were either government employees or merchants engaged in small-scale trade with Taiwan.

There are also even fewer garrison troops, infrastructure workers, and technical personnel.

Most of these people are received by local organizations, so there are relatively few people staying at the Chengguan Hotel.

Today, there are only about ten people staying at the entire hostel, which provides a lot of convenience for Yan Jiefang's actions.

After 10 p.m., he turned into a wisp of green smoke and left.

When he passed by a fishing village, he saw boats such as the "danzai boat," the "haishanshu" (a traditional boat type in Pingtan), and small wooden sampans moored there.

Thinking that he was a person of some status, it seemed both undignified and extremely embarrassing to be floating on the sea in an inflatable tire.

So he landed directly and used a normal critical hit on a 10-meter-long peddler boat.

[Critical hit successful! You have obtained 55 danzai boats!]

These ships are also part of our daily lives, so there's no problem with using normal critical hits.

But 55 ships is just too many!

This left him somewhat dumbfounded.

However, he had no time to lament, and continued to fly straight southeast as a wisp of smoke.

I was lucky tonight; there weren't any major problems.

Except for a one-hour break at sea to replenish his spiritual energy, Yan Jiefang easily flew to the Hsinchu area on the other side.

He also noticed that the strait was not calm at this time, and occasionally one or two small boats could be seen touching on the sea.

A quick scan with one's divine sense reveals that this is a private transaction between businessmen from both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

Actually, if he didn't prepare a small boat, he could have rested on one of these boats.

You could even take the boat on the other side and return to the island with them.

Of course, the timing is beyond our control.

Having your own boat is much more convenient.

Yan Jiefang did not land randomly, but went directly to the airspace above Hsinchu City/County.

Then they specifically chose a wealthy family's house and went inside.

When it comes to information, wealthy families naturally have more detailed and accurate information, while ordinary people at the bottom of society rarely have access to useful news.

Even if he heard some things, they were just snippets of information and of little use to Yan Jiefang.

He barged into the bedroom, dragged out a middle-aged man in his forties who was sleeping inside, and took him to the study for questioning.

As for the cool and beautiful woman next to him, a single glance was enough to hypnotize her and put her to sleep.

In the study, the middle-aged man was very nervous.

After all, anyone would be nervous in this situation.

This is especially true for people like them who have large families and businesses.

He was enjoying his wonderful days and didn't want any accidents to happen.

After all, there have been rumors in recent years that businessmen in central Taiwan and Taipei have been kidnapped and extorted.

Ordinary people treat it as mere gossip, but they know that it's mostly true.

That is, the case of the kidnapping of the young master of Evergreen Group in 1989 had not yet occurred, otherwise he would definitely be even more nervous.

Looking at the person sitting behind the desk, he immediately begged for mercy:

"Son, whatever you want, bring it! If I have it, I'll give it all to you, just please don't hurt me!"

Yan Jiefang ignored him, his eyes flashing with barely perceptible golden light, and quickly found out the exact location of the TSMC factory.

After hypnotizing him, put him back on the bed.

He then "visited" several other similar families before turning and leaving.

Besides the information, he also unexpectedly acquired some yellow and white items and some unremarkable jewelry.

The quantity of yellow and white items was not large, only a few dozen kilograms of gold bars.

These items were cleaned with a cleaning spell before being stored in the spatial dimension.

These people generally had access to maritime trade routes.

The currencies of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are not interchangeable; the RMB is useless in the mainland, and the NTD cannot be exchanged in the mainland either.

Gold is the universally recognized equivalent across the ocean. Whether it's fishermen and merchants from the mainland or people from Taiwan, everyone recognizes it because it's easy to resell and easy to hide.

Yan Jiefang happened to be there this time, so he just took some with him.

He wasn't a vicious person; he didn't take much, only about half from each family.

The remaining half can allow them to make money from money and continue to accumulate wealth.

He was very quick to get things done, taking less than half an hour in total.

TSMC's factory is located on the north side of the Hsinchu Science Park, and it rents Hall 67 of the Industrial Technology Research Institute as its No. 1 wafer fab.

From Hsinchu City, head east along Section 2 of Guangfu Road for about seven or eight kilometers to reach the park gate.

Inside the cleanroom of Plant 1, besides the ASML PAS2500 lithography machine, rows of long quartz tube diffusion furnaces are the most eye-catching.

In addition, there are ion implanters, dry plasma etching machines, and aluminum film sputtering equipment to form a complete process.

Tokyo Electron's spin coater and developer unit operates in close proximity to the lithography machine.

This is the time of the night shift (00:00–08:00, the main shift in the early morning).

There are still quite a few workers (nearly 50 people) at work.

To avoid being too shocking, he simply took out a large amount of the fire-damaged wood, gasoline, and diesel fuel and dumped them at the entrance of the Fab1 workshop, then set them on fire.

A powerful flame immediately ignited and burned intensely.

With such an obvious fire, it's no wonder that the workers and security guards couldn't miss it.

The urgent, piercing alarm immediately rang in everyone's ears, and the entire factory began to descend into chaos.

When people are panicked, their mental defenses naturally weaken.

Yan Jiefang used this to reduce the mental strain on himself when using his skills.

After reasonably altering everyone's memories, Yan Jiefang left with 17 sets of lithography equipment, supporting cleanroom equipment, and some complete raw materials.

He has achieved his goal, and what happens next is none of his business.

He randomly found a hotel room and spent more than an hour recovering his spiritual energy and mental depletion. Then he returned to his room at the Chengguan Inn, just as he had come.

The next morning, he checked out and returned to the capital via the same route.

In order to avoid attracting too much attention and causing unnecessary trouble, and also to reduce the time and energy he spent dealing with the initial and final traces, he decided to take the express train for his trip.

Actually, lying in a sleeper car is quite comfortable.
