After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 375 The 4th Power
Xu Boan glanced at the rearview mirror disapprovingly, and sure enough, he saw two black cars approaching rapidly from behind.
Xu Boan squeezed Ouyang Najie's hand and gave her a faint smile, the meaning was very clear: Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything!
Ouyang Najie smiled and squeezed towards Xu Boan.
Xu Bo'an's expression remained unchanged as he said to Sha Libing in the driver's seat, "Old Sha, our safety is in your hands."
Shali Bing twisted his mouth in annoyance, but said nothing. Then he stepped on the accelerator and the car speed soared again.
Boss Li on the other end of the phone heard the noise here, frowned and asked, "Boss Xu, what's wrong?"
Xu Boan said softly: "It's nothing serious, just some minor troubles."
Boss Li pondered for a moment and said, "My company is actually a shell company and doesn't have much power. But if you need help, my company's legal department has some connections in the local area and may be able to help you."
Xu Boan smiled. The Green Leaf Family is known as one of the three major families in Cuicheng. Such power is not something that a small legal staff in a company can compare to.
Therefore, Xu Bo'an said tactfully: "Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary. I can handle it. Let's get back to the topic."
Shalibing, who was driving the car, looked at Xu Boan in astonishment through the rearview mirror, and his mentality was a little broken.
Mr. Xu, how can I say you are good? We are being chased by one of the three major families in Cuicheng. You say it is a small trouble? And you are still talking about your crappy business on the phone without any hurry? Aren't you afraid that you will earn money but not spend it!
Under Shalibing's surprised eyes, Xu Bo'an continued chatting with Boss Li on the phone as if nothing had happened.
Xu Boan said with a smile: "Where were we talking about just now?"
Boss Li said, "Mr. Xu, I was just asking where your goods are. I'll fly over directly and we can trade overseas."
Xu Boan said, "Oh, yes, yes, I remember now. To be honest, we both thought the same thing. I thought so too. As for my goods, they are all in the Aeseria Federation.
Boss Li, if it's convenient for you, please come here as soon as possible. After I finish my work here, we will discuss this deal and try to finalize it right away."
Boss Li was in a very good mood after hearing this. He laughed and said, "Haha, OK, I'll order a ticket right away and take tomorrow's flight. Mr. Xu, which city do you think would be more convenient for us to do business in? I'll arrange for someone to book a hotel first."
Although Boss Li asked in an obscure way, Xu Boan also understood it.
He was asking where his batch of wood was stored. However, this question was also a matter of personal privacy, so Boss Li couldn't ask too directly.
As expected of a professional businessman, he is much smarter than people like me who are leaders on their homepage and part-time businessmen.
Although Dongjiang Erjian is also a company, Xu Boan is at least the de facto head of the company.
However, due to the nature of the enterprise, many things are done according to rules and regulations, and managers do not have much room to express their personal ideas.
Therefore, Xu Bo'an's experience in the business world is actually far less than that of individual businessmen like Boss Li.
Xu Bo'an thought that since he was already in Cuicheng, he was probably too lazy to go somewhere else for fun, so he might as well ask Boss Li to come to Cuicheng for the transaction.
Anyway, it is easy to get the wood no matter where you put it. You can rent a warehouse for the transition. Once the money is received, you can let Boss Li take the wood away. This can be considered a pleasant cooperation.
Therefore, Xu Boan replied: "Boss Li, you know Cuicheng, the third largest city in the Esselia Federation, how about we do the transaction here!
I don't know where Mr. Li's company is, and whether it is far from Cuicheng. If it is inconvenient for you, I can go there. You don't have to worry about the transportation of goods. "
Xu Bo'an sold Boss Li a favor and handed the initiative to Boss Li, which was also a way to make up for the missed appointment. After all, he carried the bonsai world with him, so it was very convenient to take out the wood from anywhere for trading.
Boss Li was stunned again when he heard this, and smiled bitterly: "Boss Xu, if we hadn't contacted each other before, I would have thought you were setting a trap for me. This is just too coincidental.
It's such a coincidence and it's like a script. I can hardly believe it. To be honest, my company is in Cuicheng, and it's perfect for me to do business in Cuicheng!"
Xu Bo'an was also amused when he heard this, and laughed out loud: "Haha, that just proves that you and I are destined to be together."
Boss Li also said happily: "I think so too. I am already looking forward to meeting you, Mr. Xu."
"Me too!" Xu Bo'an said politely.
After chatting for a while, the two hung up the phone.
Shalibing, who was driving, had already raised his head and glanced at the rearview mirror. He took the opportunity to look at the car chasing him from behind and glanced at Xu Boan from time to time, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Seeing that Xu Bo'an finally hung up the phone, he couldn't help but ask, "Boss Xu, where are we going? We finally got rid of those tails, we have to find a place to hide quickly."
Sali soldier felt a little crazy. We are still on the run, and you are talking and acting like we are on vacation. You even talked about business. You really don't know how serious the situation is!
The people from the Green Leaf Family of Cuicheng are not easy to mess with.
Xu Bo'an looked at the surroundings as if nothing had happened, and said slowly, "I'm not familiar with this place. You're a local, do you have any good places to recommend?"
Sali soldier smiled bitterly and said, "If we were going on vacation, I would recommend many places. But we are on the run, so I don't have anything to recommend."
Xu Boan frowned and asked, "Can your company help?"
"You don't know the capabilities of the Green Leaf Family. If we are caught by them, then..." Salibing didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but it was obvious that it would not be a good ending, which also showed that their company was not willing to take care of this matter at all.
Xu Bo'an frowned and said, "So, your company didn't plan to take care of this matter from the beginning."
Sha Libing laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Hey, the company boss had already heard some news and knew that this was an offensive job, so he sent me here. If you're lucky, nothing will happen, and you can just complain a few words, and the company can also take this opportunity to cut off contact with the domestic side.
Our company was originally an overseas branch opened here by a relative company in China, but the business later became independent and we relied on other people’s support. We have long wanted to go it alone!
Even if I can't handle this matter well, I will be the only one to be punished. The company can just say that I acted on my own and it has nothing to do with the company. Otherwise, it is a company after all, and it is impossible for them to arrange such a bad car, and it has a fake license plate!
As for the worst case scenario, if you are unlucky, you might die. In that case, we can say that we have done our best, and our relatives in China can’t say anything more.”
Xu Bo'an was surprised and said, "No, how much money did they give you to make you work so hard!" Sha Libing said helplessly, "It's different here than in China. Here, except for those big families that control all walks of life and all places, ordinary people really have no dignity to talk about, especially outsiders. It's very difficult to survive. My family lives in the company apartment. If I don't listen to them, not only me, but also my family will be in trouble."
Xu Bo'an was immediately stunned. What era was this? This place clearly looked like a modern city, yet such a dark thing could happen.
Xu Bo'an once again sighed from the bottom of his heart that he was so lucky to be born in his motherland and to have lived a safe, healthy and stable life until now.
Through this series of comparisons, Xu Boan realized that Zhai Xue was simply too optimistic.
She was counting on these so-called relatives of her clients to help Ouyang Najie, but they were just perfunctory in their response. If she didn't come this time, Ouyang Najie would most likely be doomed.
It seems that there is no point in contacting Zhai Xue for help. Now I can only rely on myself.
After thinking for a while, Xu Boan said, "Otherwise, let's go directly to the capital airport of the Aeseliya Federation and leave here overnight."
I have to say that the motherland is the most reliable and makes people feel most at ease.
But if this is really the case, the business that I just discussed with Boss Li will probably have to change again.
Ouyang Najie whispered: "My passport and some documents are in the apartment building!"
Shali Bing also smiled bitterly and said, "We definitely can't leave Cuicheng now. The Green Leaf Family is very powerful. At this moment, they have definitely controlled all the transportation hubs. If we want to get out, it would be like walking into a trap. I don't want to be caught!"
In Shalibing's opinion, whether it is Xu Bo'an or Ouyang Najie, they are just passers-by, and everything will be fine if they run away. But he can't do that. He still has to work and live here, and it is not so easy to leave here.
Xu Boan said: "In this case, we can't even go to the embassy."
Ouyang Najie said: "Our motherland's embassy in the Esselia Federation is in their capital, Eisal City. If we can't leave Cuicheng, it really won't work."
Xu Bo'an sighed. It seemed that he had no choice but to trouble Shi Heng, the brother who was introduced by Zhang Wenzhong.
Originally Xu Bo'an wanted to avoid bothering two people with the same matter. With the person introduced by Zhai Xue, he tried his best not to bother others so as to avoid having to do favors again.
The most difficult thing to repay these days is favors. Even though Zhang Wenzhong is grateful for Xu Boan's help, it is more appropriate to use good steel on the blade! Xu Boan originally wanted to use Zhang Wenzhong's connections in Weizhou Province to help his old classmate Ma Lu provide some help in developing the Weizhou market.
If you use favors in advance, the next time you ask for help, it will be a different situation.
At the moment, it seems that this favor has to be used in advance. After all, I came here to deal with the trouble for Ouyang Najie, and I can't let her get hurt.
Fortunately, I prepared for a rainy day and prepared another option for myself in advance. Otherwise, it would be another trouble if I had to think about it at the last minute.
As long as he can settle Ouyang Najie now, Xu Boan will have plenty of energy to deal with the affairs of the Luye family!
Xu Boan took out his cell phone and called Shi Heng.
The call was answered quickly.
Shi Heng's bold voice came from the phone: "Hello, Doctor Xu, hello, I'm Shi Heng!"
Xu Bo'an said bluntly: "This is an urgent matter, so I won't beat around the bush with you. This is what I am talking about. I have run into some trouble and have offended someone from the Green Leaf Family. Now I need a safe place to stay. Do you think you can provide me with some help?"
Hearing that Xu Bo'an had offended someone from the Green Leaf Family, Shi Heng was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Doctor Xu, don't panic. What is your current condition and where are you? I will arrange for someone to pick you up."
Xu Boan looked out the window and asked Sha Libing, "Old Sha, where is this place?"
Without even turning his head, Shali Bing shouted, "We are at the boundary of West District 2, and we are about to reach West District 3."
Xu Bo'an then said to the phone: "We are on our way in the car and will be in West District 3 soon."
Shi Heng said: "Okay, you have a local with you, right? That's great. Just come to Huashu Building on Chinatown to find me. Normally, you can arrive in about half an hour. I'll wait for you here."
Xu Bo'an said: "Okay, thank you for your kindness, let's meet and talk."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Bo'an told Sha Libing, "Old Sha, you know Chinatown, right? Let's go to Huashu Building! We can hide there!"
Shalibing said in surprise: "Huashu Building? Do you have any connection with the Huashu Group? No wonder you are so arrogant and dare to challenge the people from the Green Leaf Group!" It seemed that for a moment, Shalibing's tone was a little more relaxed.
"What? Is this Huashu Group very famous?" Xu Boan asked curiously.
While driving, Sha Libing said, "You may not know that Huashu Group is known as the fourth largest force after the three major families in Cuicheng. It is very famous."
Xu Boan raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? So powerful, then the Green Leaf Family is not that scary."
Shali Bing shook his head again and said, "That's not how it's calculated, because the three major families in Cuicheng are old families that have lasted for decades or even hundreds of years. Their foundation is unimaginable. Over the years, the three major families in Cuicheng have never changed. There are only three of them.
But this so-called fourth largest power is different. According to incomplete statistics, there are more than ten families or forces that are known as the fourth largest power in Cuicheng. Huashu Group is just a few of the forces that are slightly ahead. It is hard to say whether there is a fourth largest power. "
When Xu Boan heard Shalibing's explanation, he immediately understood that this was the eighth wonder of the world.
The Seven Wonders of the World are recognized by everyone, but there are hundreds or even thousands of places claiming to be the Eighth Wonder of the World, and no one is convinced by the other.
It seems that I was too optimistic.
