Chapter 1418 - 1416: Muramura and Kokusou
Some men are single based on their abilities.
Dongzi is such a person.
While on an assignment abroad, a female mercenary guard took a liking to Dongzi and wanted to have a relationship with him. But Dongzi remained aloof, keeping her at a distance, which left her disappointed and she eventually left.
Looking back, Yang Chen feels it’s quite a pity. That girl was actually quite good, pretty, and very capable, but Dongzi just didn’t catch on and stayed single by choice. Yang Chen is also helpless about it.
How can someone fall for you if you don’t care or pay attention to them?
Yang Chen shook his head, sighed, and left the room.
Purple Cultivator sighed too, stepped up to pat Dongzi’s shoulder with a sympathetic expression.
Yang Cao did the same, patting Dongzi’s shoulder and said, "Brother, this is a problem. If you want a cure, you can come to me."
"I..." Dongzi looked bewildered.
He didn’t know what he did to cause such a reaction from the three of them.
"Hey! Explain it to me, why am I sick!" Dongzi chased after them, shouting.
...
Yiling Hall.
"Bastard!" Dahe Baiyi kicked the coffee table over, sat on the sofa, and cursed, "Damn those Flame Country people! They didn’t give me any respect and even laughed at me! I’ll make them pay the price!"
A muscular man next to him spoke softly, "Boss! Since Flame Country folks are so uncooperative, let’s use some harder methods. They don’t respond to softness, let’s give them a taste of our fists!"
Dahe Baiyi slowly nodded, "Alright..."
"Moreover, I heard that there’s a very beautiful leader over there in Flame Country. Based on our people’s description, she’s an unparalleled beauty!" the muscular man said with a lecherous smile.
Dahe Baiyi looked up and glared at him, reprimanding, "Gongben Yuancheng! Can’t you think of anything but women? You work out every day, burning so much energy, and yet you can’t burn out your desires?"
Gongben Yuancheng chuckled, "Boss, you just don’t get it. The purpose of working out is to be stronger in that department. Honestly, boss, don’t you want to try out Flame Country’s rare beauty?"
"A rare beauty? Ha!" Dahe Baiyi scoffed disdainfully, "Flame Country hasn’t even existed for more than a few thousand years, and they’re talking about an unparalleled beauty? It’s mostly exaggeration! Besides, Yuancheng, have I ever treated you badly here? Haven’t you enjoyed all kinds of beauties?"
Gongben Yuancheng chuckled again, clearly still interested in the Flame Country beauty he heard about.
Another person with a cold expression clearly had no interest in these topics and slightly bowed to Dahe Baiyi to inquire, "Boss, what’s the plan? Do you need me to call Hao Er back? I heard that Flame Country leader Yang has a pretty skilled bodyguard, very alert at the airport, with high quality! Likely a retired guard!"
Dahe Baiyi listened, thought for a moment, and nodded slowly, "Go bring Hao Er back, tonight, I’ll show those people from Rejing our passion!"
"Yes!" The person immediately retreated.
Gongben Yuancheng didn’t look too happy, hesitated, and said to Dahe Baiyi, "Boss, are you really planning to use that guy Hao Er? He’s notorious for being a lunatic, if he goes berserk, he won’t distinguish between friend and foe!"
"I know!" Dahe Baiyi frowned and said grimly, "Unless absolutely necessary, I won’t let Hao Er take action!"
Gongben Yuancheng glanced at Dahe Baiyi, seemingly wanting to say something, hesitated but didn’t say it.
...
Soon, the door was knocked.
The door opened, and Zhao Guozong entered.
Upon entering, Zhao Guozong saw Dahe Baiyi and Gongben Yuancheng and immediately bowed deeply, "Mr. Dahe! Mr. Gongben!"
"Murata Guozong!" Dahe Baiyi snorted coldly, "Where’s your plan? Where’s your definite answer? You can’t even secure a mere twenty percent profit, are you messing with me!"
Saying this, Dahe Baiyi grabbed a cup from the table and viciously threw it at Zhao Guozong.
The cup hit Zhao Guozong’s head, and he didn’t dare to dodge at all.
"The cup I threw at you earlier was a Zisha teacup personally made by a master, worth a fortune. Do you think your ability matches this Zisha cup?" Dahe Baiyi pointed at the cup on the ground.
Thud!
Zhao Guozong immediately knelt on the ground, "Mr. Dahe, I was wrong!"
"Wrong?" Dahe Baiyi sneered, "Do you think your simple apology can offset the humiliation I suffered today? Ever since Yiling Hall was established, I, Dahe Baiyi, have never endured such humiliation!"
Zhao Guozong deeply buried his head into the carpet.
Gongben Yuancheng came over, stepped on Zhao Guozong’s head, ruthlessly pressing his face into the ground.
"Coward!" Gongben Yuancheng snorted coldly, "Flame Country people are just as pathetic!"
Zhao Guozong’s body slightly trembled but didn’t dare to refute a word.
Seeing it was almost enough, Dahe Baiyi waved his hand to signal Gongben Yuancheng to release Zhao Guozong, "Speak, why have you come?"
"Mr. Dahe! Twenty percent profit is too high!" Upon receiving permission, Zhao Guozong said urgently.
"What did you say!" Dahe Baiyi slammed the table and glared at Zhao Guozong, "Murata Guozong, repeat what you just said! You dare question the decisions we made!"
Zhao Guozong... No, in the eyes of Dahe Baiyi and the others, he should be referred to as: Murata Guozong!
He pressed his head to the ground and shouted, "Mr. Dahe! I really don’t dare to question your decision! But as the division manager, my task is to keep the division running while generating profits for Yiling Hall. After your departure, President Yang has already considered tearing up the renewal agreement. If he doesn’t sign the agreement, the division will be completely closed. This is not just a huge loss for Rejing City, but also a significant loss for our Yiling Hall! Think about it, just three percent profit in the past brought you immense wealth! If he leaves, there’ll be nothing left!"
Dahe Baiyi frowned deeply.
He didn’t expect Yang Chen to be so direct and tear up the renewal contract right away.
If Yang Chen really withdrew his investment, it would be indeed a big loss for Yiling Hall.
"So why are you here now?" Dahe Baiyi looked at Zhao Guozong.
Zhao Guozong didn’t lift his head, just shouted, "I hope to reduce the profit margin, lower it to six percent! Even if it’s just six percent, it’s twice as much as last year!"
"Impossible!" Dahe Baiyi snorted coldly, "Murata Guozong, consider carefully who you are talking to, what position you are occupying! Right now, I am questioning your loyalty to the empire!"
