"My office door was closed, how could he possibly hear me!"
Shen Yiman smiled mysteriously.
What they didn't know was that Lu Yang, sitting in the office next door, had his senses greatly enhanced by the Black Dragon Token. Even though the two women were speaking very softly, Lu Yang could hear them clearly through the wall and couldn't help but shake his head.
"These two little vixens are truly troublesome. I need to find a time to let you girls properly experience how formidable I, Lu Yang, am!"
Lu Yang thought to himself, but then he sighed. Having lived for twenty-five or twenty-six years, he was still a virgin. In the years he was married to Tang Shimin, Lu Yang had always slept in separate rooms from her, sharing only the name of husband and wife, but not the reality of it.
At three in the afternoon, the Qinglong Bay Municipal Square in Jiangbei City was adorned with festive lanterns and decorations by the municipal authorities. It was beautifully set up because the bidding and investment conference for the Qinglong Bay project was about to commence here.
This Qinglong Bay project bidding and investment conference was primarily focused on two major areas: the governance of the Qinglong Bay waters, environmental optimization, and the establishment of a wharf.
Since the Qinglong Bay project was designated as a provincial key project, several hundred billion had already been invested in it. This piece of cake, no matter where it was placed, was incredibly enticing. Many excellent foreign companies had come to Jiangbei City, hoping to get a slice of it.
Surrounded by countless wealthy individuals, Xiao Wuji arrived arrogantly. This morning, he had contacted the second-in-command of the Kennethski Company. Although Kennethski was currently facing legal trouble and would likely spend some time in prison in Jiangbei City, China, it did not affect Kennethski Company's continued participation in the bidding and investment. As long as they secured the wharf project within the Qinglong Bay project, it would yield profits of at least tens of billions. With such an alluring project, how could Kennethski possibly miss out?
Moreover, Xiao Wuji had already coordinated with Kennethski. Once the project was secured, they would immediately retaliate against Haitong Group and Black Dragon Capital. Kennethski, having been beaten by Lu Yang like that, could not possibly swallow such an insult.
Xiao Wuji was confident of victory this time. He surveyed the surroundings and walked directly towards the provincial governor, Yang Guangdi, who was on the main stage.
As the governor of Jiang Province, Yang Guangdi was the main person in charge of the Qinglong Bay project. The entire Jiang Province had invested a considerable amount of construction capital for this project. Furthermore, this time, for the sake of fairness and justice, large companies from abroad were directly invited to invest in Jiangbei City. However, as Yang Guangdi looked around, he saw only small companies, with market values in the tens of millions, and a few better ones in the hundreds of millions, all in Chinese currency. This made Yang Guangdi's heart tighten, and he felt a bit disappointed.
"Governor Yang, how have you been!"
"I am Xiao Wuji, a third-generation member of the Xiao family from Yanjing. This time, I have also come to Jiangbei City to invest on behalf of the Xiao family!"
Xiao Wuji stepped forward, looking at Yang Guangdi and speaking with a smile.
"The Xiao family of Yanjing?"
Upon hearing this name, Yang Guangdi immediately looked at the young man before him with increased respect. He smiled and said, "So you are from the Xiao family of Yanjing. It is truly our honor to have you come to Jiangbei City to invest!"
"Haha, Governor Yang is too kind. This investment is primarily for foreign enterprises, so our Xiao family has also found a cooperation partner, the Kraiski Company of the Snow Country, to act as the investment intermediary!"
"I'm sure Governor Yang knows of Kraiski Company, right? It is a very powerful company in the Snow Country. As long as they win the bid, the Qinglong Bay project will undoubtedly be completed successfully!"
Xiao Wuji continued to speak with a smile.
"Kraiski Company? A top five port construction company in the world, of course I know them. I didn't expect Mr. Xiao to be able to invite such a formidable enterprise. You are truly accomplished at such a young age!"
"We sincerely welcome Kraiski Company to invest in Jiangbei City!"
Upon hearing the name of the company, Yang Guangdi's eyebrows immediately lit up, and he said excitedly.
Yang Guangdi was certainly familiar with Kraiski Company, a multi-billion dollar company in the Snow Country, even more powerful than Haitong Group.
The Xiao family was indeed different, bringing such a powerful company into play from the start. If Jiangbei City's Qinglong Bay project could cooperate with such a company, Yang Guangdi would have no worries.
"Thank you for your trust, Governor Yang. It's just that the chairman of Kraiski Company, Mr. Kennethski, encountered a slight issue when he came to Jiangbei City. I wonder if Governor Yang could help us handle it?"
Xiao Wuji looked at Yang Guangdi and asked with a smile.
"What slight issue?"
Yang Guangdi was slightly taken aback and immediately asked.
"Yesterday, at a restaurant in Jiangbei City, Mr. Kennethski was assaulted by a thug. However, due to Chinese legal reasons, the Jiangbei City police department arrested Mr. Kennethski. Could you see if there's any way to be lenient and release Mr. Kennethski?"
"This way, Mr. Kennethski will definitely be grateful to you, and our cooperation will be smoother!"
Xiao Wuji said directly.
"Mr. Kenny was actually arrested? What exactly happened?"
Yang Guangdi asked Xiao Wuji with great curiosity.
"Alas, it's due to the difference in culture between our two countries. Mr. Kennethski patted a woman's backside, and as a result, he was beaten. Then the other party also called the police. The police department, without questioning, directly arrested Mr. Kennethski!"
Xiao Wuji continued to explain.
"Hmm, indeed, there are cultural differences between the two countries. How about this, I'll make a call to the Jiangbei City Police Department and ask them to release Mr. Kennethski. He can then come and participate in the Qinglong Bay bidding and investment conference. I believe that with Mr. Kennethski's participation, our Qinglong Bay bidding and investment conference will be even more successful!"
Yang Guangdi thought for a moment. To ensure the Qinglong Bay project proceeded perfectly, he decided to release Kennethski.
"Alright, thank you very much, Governor Yang!"
Hearing this, a gleam of light flashed in Xiao Wuji's eyes.
Yang Guangdi directly took out his phone and called the director of the Jiangbei City Police Department. Soon, Kennethski was released. In less than half an hour, Kennethski appeared at the Qinglong Bay project bidding and investment conference.
"Oh, my god, the air outside is so good!"
Kennethski took a deep breath, excited. After speaking, a cold glint flashed in his eyes: "Those scoundrels who humiliated me, I, Kennethski, swear that I will make them pay back a hundredfold!"
"Especially that bastard named Lu Yang, I will make him suffer a painful death!"
Kennethski roared coldly.
"Mr. Kennethski, don't worry. That Lu Yang won't be jumping around for much longer. As soon as we secure the entire Qinglong Bay project, he and his Black Dragon Capital will be our next targets. At that time, I will personally hand Lu Yang over to you, and you can do whatever you want to him!"
Xiao Wuji whispered into Kennethski's ear.
"Hahaha, that's wonderful!"
Kennethski immediately said with a laugh.
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet the Governor of Jiang Province!"
After speaking, Xiao Wuji directly led Kennethski to meet Yang Guangdi.
"Mr. Kennethski, I've heard so much about you. It's a pleasure to meet you!"
Seeing Kennethski, Yang Guangdi said excitedly.
"Governor Yang is too kind. It is my honor to be able to invest in Jiangbei City!"
Kennethski was also very eloquent and treated Yang Guangdi with great politeness.
"Haha, then I wish our cooperation success in advance!"
Yang Guangdi immediately raised his glass and clinked it with Kennethski.
At this moment, Lu Yang also arrived at the venue of the bidding and investment conference with Shen Yiman.
"Damn it, that scoundrel is here too!"
Upon seeing Lu Yang, Kennethski couldn't help but exclaim.
"Mr. Kennethski, why are you so angry?"
Yang Guangdi saw Kennethski's expression change and quickly asked.
