Chapter 2625 - 2627: Welcome to Invest!
"Additionally, Ding Mulan said there’s an old bridge in Tianhai that needs repair? Leave the remaining funds for her to use.
Donate in the name of Chenhe Group!"
Xiao Chen doesn’t like doing good deeds anonymously.
Doing good things should be recognized.
That’s only fair.
"Yes!"
Zhang Qi nodded and said.
Xiao Chen has done a lot of good deeds, yet none have been credited to himself, all given to Xiao Corporation, Chenhe Group, Xinmeng Group, etc.
"By the way, isn’t the War God Factory wanting to buy a batch of new equipment and is short on money?
Have them report the amount.
Anyway, someone will come to give us money.
The eight great sects have to be wealthier than a small sect like Iron Fist Sect."
Xiao Chen smiled and said.
Zhang Qi nodded in excitement.
"They want to come against me.
Then they should make some contributions to the things I do."
Xiao Chen’s smile deepened.
The news quickly reached Hai City.
The Sect Master of Sky Eagle Sect, one of the eight great sects, looked a bit grim.
By calculation, Iron Fist Sect was also their affiliate sect.
They had to tribute a considerable amount to them every year.
Now, it just vanished into thin air?
"Is the news accurate?"
The Sky Eagle Sect Master asked.
"Sect Master, the news cannot be wrong.
Just half an hour ago, Chen Tiequan’s family suddenly sold off assets and managed to gather over ten million gemstone currency.
All was transferred into a private account.
And this account is in Tianhai!"
The Vice Sect Leader Cheng Lin spoke.
"Hmph! I don’t believe it; can this small Chenhe Group perform tricks?
That waste Chen Tiequan.
Didn’t even send back any message.
Inform everyone, get ready to depart.
The other seven great sects have already departed.
We cannot lag behind.
The reward Elder Huang gave is too tempting.
I can’t help but be tempted!"
The Sky Eagle Sect Master Cui Tianying said coldly.
"Yes!"
Cheng Lin nodded.
If they were afraid, they might not even get a sip of broth in the end.
Action is necessary.
Meanwhile, Huang Geng’s expression was not looking good.
Chen Tiequan had gone missing.
Not a single useful piece of information came back.
This idiot was calling him earlier, saying there were no formidable figures in Tianhai.
"Elder Huang, our subsidiary companies have all failed.
Chenhe Group is too strong; we are just not their match.
Moreover, we greatly underestimated their financial reserves.
Resulting in our very embarrassing situation now."
Beside him, a person sighed and said, "Currently, our losses have reached as high as one billion gemstone currency.
This commercial war cannot continue."
Huang Geng’s heart was bleeding.
The Young Master had sent him to manage the situation.
But it didn’t go well on both ends.
On Chen Tiequan’s side, all went missing.
On Tianshen Group’s side, it was constant defeat, with several subsidiaries either bankrupt or under investigation.
Really miserable.
The direct losses were up to one billion gemstone currency.
That’s gemstone currency.
Not joss paper!
At this time, Lei Xingyun’s call came in.
"What have you been doing? What did I send you there for? How come there’s such substantial loss?"
Lei Xingyun’s tone was very unpleasant.
He was already annoyed.
He wanted Huang Geng to bring some good news.
But the news was only this.
His mood was simply adding insult to injury, even more furious.
"Young Master, it’s my fault!"
Huang Geng sighed and said, "I miscalculated the strength of Chenhe Group; they’re far scarier than imagined.
Whether it be courage or wisdom.
Or financial capability, they are not inferior to our Tianshen Group!"
"Waste!"
Lei Xingyun cursed and said, "Go ahead and do what you must.
Whatever you need, I’ll fully support.
Even if it costs the whole Tianshen Group, I must ensure Xiao Chen is dead!"
"Yes!"
Huang Geng trembled as he hung up the phone.
But his heart was filled with bitterness.
To deal with a Chenhe Group, if it requires sacrificing the whole Tianshen Group, then it loses its meaning.
"Elder Huang, continue?"
The person beside him asked.
Huang Geng shook his head and said, "Stop the commercial war.
Now is not a good opportunity.
Let’s wait some more and see if there’s a better timing.
Aren’t they coming to Central Plains City?
Once they arrive, it’ll not be too late to handle them."
...
Tianshen Group temporarily halted the commercial war.
Eventually, this battle ended temporarily with a complete victory for Chenhe Group and Bailong Group.
Meanwhile, Cui Tianying had already led Cheng Lin and others to Tianhai.
Besides them, there were also seven other great sects.
Everyone seemed quite in tune.
Knowing one sect entering Tianhai would be dangerous.
Thus, the eight great sects prepared to join forces.
Once they’ve taken down Chenhe Group, they would discuss how to divide the benefits.
The current necessity is unity.
"Sect Master, those folks from White Robe Sect actually brought over a hundred martial artists, all elites."
Cheng Lin looked through the car’s rearview mirror and said.
"Hmph, Liu Baiyi is trying to steal the thunder, after all, the reward from Elder Huang is too enticing.
Don’t we also have over a hundred elites?"
Cui Tianying snorted coldly.
But he didn’t care.
As long as they successfully complete the mission, it’s fine to share the reward among everyone.
Chen Tiequan’s disappearance made Cui Tianying a bit worried.
But now caught between the devil and the deep blue sea, there was no opportunity to choose.
The sky had already turned dark.
Dense woods flanked the provincial road.
The car sprinted rapidly.
The people in the car were even somewhat drowsy.
These people never took Chenhe Group seriously.
All felt that coming to Tianhai this time, they’d definitely complete the mission smoothly.
Suddenly, all cars started to brake sharply.
The drowsy people awakened.
Each cursing under their breath.
In front of the convoy.
There was a huge truck.
The truck had its hazard and outline lights on.
Very clear at night.
Many people got out to assess the situation.
On this unlit provincial road, suddenly ten cars’ headlights turned on.
Making the road brilliantly bright.
At this point, people saw a person seated on top of the truck.
Some were also inside the truck.
Next to the truck, a group was standing, watching coldly.
On top of the truck was Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen had already smoked three cigarettes.
Even he felt he smoked a bit too much: "You’re really late; can’t you be a bit quicker?"
Xiao Chen lazily extinguished the cigarette butt.
Looking at the convoy opposite, he said.
Cui Tianying and others were stunned.
Someone was actually guarding them here?
Although it seemed like just over a hundred people.
Such confidence?
"Everyone, off the vehicles!"
Cui Tianying shouted.
Over a hundred experts from Sky Eagle Sect got off.
"White Robe Sect, get off!"
White Robe Sect people also started getting off.
The following five sects also got off, all gathering together.
Almost a thousand martial artists in total.
All these martial artists were in the Meridian Opening Phase.
This is because they were the elite of the eight great sects.
And the Sect Masters of the eight great sects were all Marrow-Cleansing Phase experts.
Cui Tianying, Liu Baiyi, and others looked disdainfully at Xiao Chen and his group.
