Shen Haihua organized his thoughts and explained, âMr. Ye, if Iâm not wrong, that friend of yours should be the president of the Magnificent group, Xia Ruoxuc, right? Her identity as a Xia family descendant is no secret, after all.â
Ye Chen was still surprised that Shen Haihua knew about Xia Ruoxueâs identity.
It seemed that the Xia family was a large part of the reason why the Magnificent group had grown so quickly over the past few years.
The mere mention of the Xia family was enough to make River Cityâs corporations cower in fear.
âMr. Ye. The Xia familyâs status is very terrifying. I donât know the exact details, but Iâve definitely heard of the Tian Yuan group. Itâs a colossal corporation that one cannot afford to offend!â
âAs for the Xia Financial group, Iâve also heard about it. This corporation is even more mysterious than the Tian Yuan group, and it is also the force standing behind the Tian Yuan group. Out of the 90 industries that the country is prioritizing, they are involved in 89. The assets at their disposal are terrifying, but thatâs not the most important thing. They also have the support of ancient martial artists.â
Ye Chenâs first thought drifted to the martial arts clans.
âŚ..
From the information he had recently gathered, some of the families had formed connections with martial arts experts.
Ye Chen did not understand business at all. Even if he did, he would not have the time to personally build a business empire.
As such, his eyes could not help but focus on Shen Haihua in front of him.
This man had been his first patient in River City, and he was considered his ally. He had saved Shen Haihuaâs life, so it was unlikely that the man would betray him.
Moreover, the other party was a well-known founder of his own corporation who knew the rules of the business world well. He was undoubtedly the best candidate for this.
Ye Chen spent a few seconds thinking before suddenly asking sternly, âShen Haihua, what is your dream?â
Shen Haihua was stunned. He even wanted to laugh. Why did Ye Chenâs tone of voice sound a little like that of a teacher?
However, when he saw Ye Chenâs serious expression, his smile instantly evaporated.
He was already close to fifty years old. What dreams could he still have?
Even if there was one, he would not be able to achieve it.
He had once wanted to turn North Name Corporation into the worldâs number one corporation, but reality had poured cold water on his hopes and dreams. He could only carve out his own small territory in River City.
Finally, Shen Haihua shook his head and said in a self-deprecating manner, âIâm already in my forties. What dreams can I have? Dreams are for you young people.â
Ye Chenâs fingers tapped the table lightly before suddenly stopping. His eyes were seemingly flickering with light.
âCan you lead the Heavenly Justice group onto the world stage?â
âThe world stage?â Shen Haihua hesitated.
âShen Haihua, let me ask you a question. If the Heavenly Justice group is to gain sufficient power to resist the Xia family within six months, what needs to be done?â Ye Chen asked seriously.
When he heard Ye Chenâs question, Shen Haihuaâs eyes were filled with fear. Ye Chen was truly audacious. He actually wanted to resist this behemoth. How was that possible?
Moreover, it even had to be done within half a year. What a joke!
He had wanted to laugh, but seeing how serious Ye Chen was, he could only say, âFirst off, we need the governmentâs support. Secondly, the protection of the martial arts world. Finally, we need a steady supply of extremely profitable and diversified products.â
Ye Chen fell into a state of deep thought.
He naturally had a way to deal with the first and second conditions.
As for the third one, that posed much less of a challenge. He was a walking library of countless pill formulas and medical prescriptions. Was medicine not considered to be an extremely profitable business?
âI can fulfill all three conditions. However, even if I do, can you guarantee that the Heavenly Justice group will become an unshakeable behemoth within half a year?â Ye Chen stood up and said in a clear voice.
Shen Haihua subconsciously felt that Ye Chen was bluffing. It would be terrifying if he could meet even one of these three conditions. How could Ye Chen fulfill all three?
However, he then recalled Qiao Zhenghuâs and Zheng Jingmingâs deaths. It was almost as if a tiny voice in his head was telling him that Ye Chen could really pull it off.
Before he could respond, Ye Chen took out a medicinal pill and placed it on the table. âIf youâre willing, this pill can be a meeting gift. It can extend your lifespan by 50 years!â
Shen Haihuaâs breathing quickened when he heard those last few words.
This was a lifespan extension of 50 years they were talking about here!
It was an offer that countless people could only dream of!
Would Ye Chen lie to him? Of course not, he could even save someone who was on the brink of death! 50 years of extended lifespan was nothing to the man!
Shen Haihuaâs eyes were bloodshot. He grabbed the pill from the table without caring for his image and swallowed it. He then said excitedly, âMr. Ye, Iâm willing! As long as you can fulfill those three conditions, I can definitely make the Heavenly Justice group an unshakeable existence!â
Ye Chen nodded, pushed the door open, and walked out. âIâll see you at the Heavenly Justice groupâs building in three days. As for those three conditions, someone will contact you about them.â
Ye Chen left.
Shen Haihua stared unwaveringly at Ye Chenâs back. He knew that his original fate of dying of old age in River City had been completely changed.
He had boarded this young manâs huge ship.
The final destination of the ship would not be this small place, nor was it Huaxia, but rather the entire world!
Ye Chen was in a good mood after leaving the villa in Longyue Bay district. He trusted Shen Haihua.
If the man succeeded, the Xia family would no longer be a hindrance.
If the Xia family found out about his relationship with Ye Lingtian, they would probably be even more unsettled.
Ye Chen had been planning to return to the Grand City apartment complex when he received a phone call informing him that Sun Yiâs younger brother would be undergoing surgery today.
Hence, he went over to the hospital and met miracle doctor Qiu there. With miracle doctor Qiuâs assistance, it was easy for him to gain access to the operating room. After some acupuncture treatment, Sun Yiâs brotherâs condition became much better.
Just as he was about to leave the hospital, he bumped into Sun Yi, who had been rushing over.
What surprised him was that Xia Ruoxue had also come along.
Was this fate, or simply a coincidence?
âYe Chen, what are you doing here? Are you here to see my brother?â Sun Yi asked in surprise.
Ye Chen explained, âMiracle doctor Qiu is my acquaintance, after all. He told me to come. Your younger brother is having an operation. As his brother-in-law, I naturally have to drop by to provide some encouragement and support.â
Sun Yiâs pretty face reddened as she hurriedly said to Xia Ruoxue, âPresident Xia, please donât misunderstand. Previously, Ye Chen pretended to be my boyfriend just to annoy my relativesâŚâ
Xia Ruoxue stared at Ye Chen with interest and said coldly, âOf course, I wonât misunderstand. Ye Chen is really good at pretending to be a boyfriend. After all, this guyâs been pretty lucky with the ladies recently..â
