My beautiful CEO wife

The Paradise Island plan is undoubtedly a major initiative in the future commercial layout of the Moer Consortium!

If properly operated, this plan will bring them at least tens of billions of euros in revenue!

Therefore, all the stakeholders within the consortium place great importance on the Paradise Island plan.

If the plan collapses due to Carlos’s negligence, it wouldn’t just mean getting kicked out, he could even lose his life for it!

Thinking of this, Carlos began to sweat profusely in anxiety.

Seeing his horrified expression, the mockery in Xiao Zheng’s eyes deepened, full of disdain and contempt for him. This situation didn’t have to be troublesome at all; it was all Carlos’s arrogance and conceit to blame.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Carlos forced a smile and asked, "Uh, Mr. Xiao, could you please show some mercy? If the Paradise Island plan ends here, I might not live!"

Hearing this, Xiao Zheng glanced at him, then sneered, "Whether you live or not, what’s that got to do with me?"

Hearing these words, Carlos, in panic, knelt down before him: "Mr. Xiao, I’ve offended you in many ways before. This whole situation is my fault! But I still hope you can show some mercy; I’ll fulfill any request you make!"

After saying that, he began to kowtow to Xiao Zheng.

Thud thud thud, he did so quite earnestly!

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng shook his head and then asked, "If I let you go, would you really agree to anything?"

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Carlos immediately felt a surge of hope in his heart: "If you could let me off, I promise, no matter what request you make, I will agree to it!"

"Alright, I want 40% of the shares of Paradise Island," Xiao Zheng said, "And they should be dry shares, I won’t pay a single penny."

What!

Upon hearing Xiao Zheng’s demand, Carlos turned pale with fright!

This couldn’t be described as an open demand; it was practically equivalent to taking Carlos’s life! Taking 40% of the dry shares of Paradise Island, if agreed upon by Carlos, the Moer Consortium would suffer tremendous losses!

Carlos couldn’t help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, then tentatively asked, "Mr. Xiao, you’re joking with me, right? 40% of dry shares, are you serious?"

"Of course, I’m serious. What, don’t you want to agree?" Xiao Zheng gave him a sideways glance, then said, "If you don’t agree, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, I’ll keep my word, as long as I’m alive, your Paradise Island won’t start!"

"40% of the dry shares, that’s my bottom line!"

When he said this last sentence, his tone revealed a deep sense of dominance.

Carlos, eyes filled with despair, finally realized how foolish his actions were a few days earlier. If he hadn’t deliberately avoided meeting Xiao Zheng and the others, the situation wouldn’t have escalated to this point.

However, it was too late to say anything now; there’s no remedy for regret in this world.

Carlos ultimately had to pay the price for his arrogance, his own retribution.

Who knows how much time had passed, when Carlos’s slightly hoarse voice finally resounded in the office: "This matter is too significant for me to decide alone. Could you allow me to call the chairman?"

"As you wish." Xiao Zheng replied casually.

After saying thank you, Carlos turned and entered a small adjoining room.

This act was somewhat self-deceptive.

For even if these walls were thick, as long as Xiao Zheng wanted, he could hear Carlos’s phone conversation with the other person.

Ten minutes later, Carlos emerged from the room.

As for Xiao Zheng, his heart was full of confidence.

Once Carlos put away his phone, he exclaimed as if he had just escaped death, "The chairman has agreed to your demand. Our Moer Consortium hopes to become Qianqiu Group’s partner, and the 40% dry shares of Paradise Island can be seen as a welcoming gift for our first collaboration."

"Sign the contract, spare me the useless words," Xiao Zheng said.

Once Carlos had received the chairman’s approval, he no longer worried and quickly had his subordinates draft the contract. After Xiao Zheng confirmed there were no issues, he signed his name.

Thus, Qianqiu Group acquired 40% of Paradise Island’s shares.

In the coming decades, or even a century, Paradise Island would bring enormous and substantial profits to Qianqiu Group!

After signing the contract, Xiao Zheng left with his copy.

In fact, based on his own beliefs, he disdained continued cooperation with the Moer Consortium. However, for the development of Qianqiu Group, he decided to give the Moer Consortium an opportunity.

After all, Qianqiu Group is Leng Ruobing’s life work; Xiao Zheng wasn’t doing this for himself. For his woman, he had to secure this contract.

Overall, his trip to Europe was incredibly fruitful.

Not only did he obtain information about the Ancient World and Ancient Clan, but he also freely acquired 40% of Paradise Island’s shares. Xiao Zheng suddenly felt that he might wake up laughing from dreams.

After finishing the matters in Jonah City, Xiao Zheng returned to the Netherworld King Temple.

Just as previously agreed upon, he returned to the Temple in time for dinner.

Hades had not begun crafting the third and fourth Soul Holy Stones, waiting instead for Xiao Zheng’s return. It was only after accompanying Xiao Zheng for dinner that she went into the dungeon alone.

Although Xiao Zheng didn’t go to visit, he stayed awake all night.

Around 10 a.m. the next day, Hades handed him two Soul Holy Stones. Adding the previous two, Xiao Zheng now had four Soul Holy Stones.

Moreover, because Alphonso and the other were far stronger than Eugene and the other, their Soul Holy Stones were also much more powerful.

According to Hades, if Xiao Zheng used all four Soul Holy Stones, the Sky Net might gain eight Supreme Realm experts! If he focused on training, he could cultivate at least two Transcendent Realm experts!

Upon learning this news, Xiao Zheng felt deeply excited inside.

After all, Long Qie and others had been slow to break through realms, practically becoming a burden on his mind. Especially as he encountered more powerful enemies, he became more eager for Long Qie and others to grow rapidly.

Xiao Zheng didn’t hope for Long Qie and the others to provide him with significant assistance, but he wanted them to have self-preserving abilities.

With these four Soul Holy Stones, it also resolved a major concern for Xiao Zheng!
