We're partners now, so you just have to pay attention to these things. Jiang Cheng stood up and said in a gloomy tone, "I don't want any accidents to happen in this cooperation."
In fact, this sentence was a little redundant. For Zheng Donghui, this man who had become the real ruler of China's underground world and stirred up a storm in Country N didn't actually rely on the Zheng family's strength. The reason why he said this was to remind the Zheng family not to have any other ideas. Otherwise, one wrong step and they would be consigned to eternal hell!
Zheng Donghui looked at this man leave with a complicated expression. In the end, he sighed helplessly. The chaos in Country N was still there. There were even some arrogant mercenary groups who said that the Purification Potion was already in their pocket, and they were just waiting for the fated person to buy it at a high price.
As soon as this sentence was said, it immediately caused a lot of ridicule and snort. There were even many people who sneered and said that they really didn't know what they were doing. With their trash strength, they still wanted to get their hands on the Purification Potion. Then, the people from the Blackwater Mercenary Company said that if anyone fought with them for the Purification Potion, they would definitely be punished by the government of Country A.
However, the ridicule didn't decrease at all. The people from the foreign mercenary group of Country F were the first to jump out and ridicule, saying that there was such a thing as hegemony in the mercenary world.
For a time, it was a chaotic mess. A large group of mercenary organizations fought like hooligans while advancing toward the capital of N Nation.
Sensing that the capital was no longer very peaceful, the Zheng Family decided to move their entire family to D City. Since Jiang Cheng was a member of Dark Phoenix, the other mercenary groups would probably have to give him some face.
In this way, it was very easy for Jiang Cheng to negotiate with the Zheng family.
He specially brought Zheng Donghui as a hostage, or rather, the person who facilitated the cooperation. He also brought along two of his subordinates, Ye Shaowen and Defeating Armies, as well as the two ministers of the Country N branch to attend the dinner party held by the Zheng family.
After carefully looking at the clothes of these people in front of him, Jiang Cheng nodded in satisfaction.
Ye Shaowen was still in an extremely coquettish white suit, while Defeating Armies was still in a black special combat uniform. His expression was gloomy, and he was the former's bodyguard. Because of this, he was ridiculed for a long time. However, since he didn't care about such things, he naturally didn't show any expression.
Li Zaicheng wore a decent tuxedo, and his every movement showed the elegance of a young master from an aristocratic family and the domineering aura of a mafia boss. On the other hand, Pu Minyin was in an eye-catching sky blue evening dress that outlined her graceful figure, which made the men feel a little excited.
To the Zheng family, Dark Phoenix was a high-level cooperation partner that they would never have imagined. However, what Jiang Cheng didn't know was that he had become the spokesperson of Dark Phoenix in Asia. The strength that he implied was that his Lung Hing Society could control the economic lifeline of Country N to the greatest extent. If the Zheng family was in power but disobeyed, there would definitely be serious consequences. Unexpectedly, Zheng Donghui had already misunderstood Jiang Cheng's intentions. This was quite a strange story.
Therefore, the Zheng family specially arranged for the manager to wait for Jiang Cheng's arrival at the door, and strictly ordered them to receive him properly. They absolutely couldn't let any snobbish behavior ruin this cooperation. Naturally, these people were extremely terrified. One of them even took out a pair of binoculars and looked up.
The car that Jiang Cheng and the others took soon arrived at the destination. Immediately, the hotel's doorman arrived. In fact, this hotel was also the Zheng family's property, so it was actually the Zheng family's servant who went to park the car. The other person respectfully said to Jiang Cheng and the others, "Mr. Jiang, please come with me."
Jiang Cheng nodded without batting an eyelid and walked forward. Looking at his graceful and steady steps, Li Zaicheng's face revealed an envious expression. When would he be able to be like Boss, so graceful?
Pu Minyin seemed to know what he was thinking. For a moment, she speechlessly rolled her eyes at him and went straight to follow. Li Zaicheng's face was filled with bitterness. Ye Shaowen, who was beside him, laughed out loud and patted him on the shoulder in a comforting manner. Then, he said, "Come on, young man. Your road is still long. Walk steadily step by step. It won't be difficult for you to reach the sky.
Of course, Ye Shaowen didn't know that when Li Zaicheng became the godfather of the new generation of the Asian underworld ten years ago, this sentence was forever passed down as the gang's creed. Of course, this was also in the future. Now Li Zaicheng just silently remembered it in his heart and vowed to work hard towards the life he wanted.
Entering the banquet hall, Jiang Cheng looked at the luxurious decorations and orderly seating arrangements and frowned slightly. The Zheng family's chief butler had been in this position for more than 20 years. How could he not see that this distinguished guest seemed to have some complaints about this arrangement? He whispered, "Is there anything Mr. Jiang is dissatisfied with?
I don't like too many people. In this case, there shouldn't be so many people. Call your family's old man out and let's have a simple talk. If it succeeds, everyone will be happy. If it doesn't, then so be it. It's just a little more effort. Why bother? "
Jiang Cheng's tone was indifferent. However, a lot of cold sweat immediately appeared on the chief butler's face. How could he not hear the strong murderous intent in this ruthless man's tone? He hurriedly said, "Don't arrange anything. Go and ask the family head to come over."
So this banquet immediately became a very private small gathering. However, the comparison of power was obviously not very balanced. On Jiang Cheng's side, there were three people: Jiang Cheng himself, Li Zaicheng, and Pu Minyin. On the Zheng family's side, there were only the Zheng family head and Zheng Donghui.
For a time, the Zheng family expressed their dissatisfaction, but Old Master Zheng said that if Jiang Cheng wanted to do something bad to him, it would be useless even if the whole Zheng family came out to stop him. It was better to show sincerity and maybe fight for more benefits.
Looking at Old Master Zheng's hale and hearty aura and the enlightenment in his eyes that seemed to have seen through the world, Jiang Cheng faintly exclaimed in admiration, "You're indeed an ambitious and formidable person of your generation. You're extraordinary. After that, he raised his glass and said in a clear voice, "This glass of wine is my apology."
Old Man Zheng's status in Country N was very similar to that of their family's old master. They were both from a military family, so their reputation and status were relatively high. He had obviously misjudged the situation before and had given himself too much initiative in this matter. That was why there was such a mistake that should not have happened.
Old Master Zheng looked at the sincere expression on Jiang Cheng's face and immediately had a good impression of him. After nodding slightly, he raised his glass and drank it in one gulp. Then, he said in an admiring tone, "You flatter me, Mr. Jiang, you have become an ambitious man at such a young age. Now that you and I have the same goal, it's not a bad thing for me to have the opportunity to cooperate and feel the vitality of young people and observe Mr. Jiang's means at the same time. Besides, Mr. Jiang is the guest and I'm the host, so these etiquettes are still indispensable."
These words could really be regarded as airtight and flawless. Even Jiang Cheng nodded secretly as he listened. He had already deliberately lowered his stance, and this old man was also a smart person. He did not take advantage of him and showed any flaws that he should not have. Instead, he flattered him back without changing his expression. He even used the identity of 'host and guest' to distinguish between them. He really had his own way of doing things.
While the two of them were playing with words here, Defeating Armies and Li Zaicheng on the side were staring at each other blankly, not knowing what to do.
After a few words of greeting, Old Master Zheng pulled Zheng Donghui over and said, "This is my little granddaughter. I guess she will have to deal with Mr. Jiang often in the future. I hope Mr. Jiang can remind her if she is stupid, but you can't entrust her with important tasks. It will be bad if she ruins Mr. Jiang's plan and gets herself killed."
Jiang Cheng laughed and glanced at Zheng Donghui's body with his sharp eyes, which made Zheng Donghui uncomfortable. Just as she was about to lose her temper, she heard Jiang Cheng say, "Senior, you are deliberately making fun of me, aren't you? Donghui is a great talent, and her scheming is rare in the world. It will be a waste of her talent if she is not entrusted with important tasks. "
The words of the two of them were undoubtedly another round of competition. Old Master Zheng intended to arrange Zheng Donghui into the core camp of Jiang Cheng, but he did not want Jiang Cheng to kill her. Jiang Cheng made a slight concession and said that he could agree to this request, but it was also an indirect warning to Zheng Donghui not to act recklessly. Otherwise, the so-called genius would also die in the face of killing.
Seeing Li Zaicheng and Pu Minyin, Old Master Zheng's expression suddenly froze, and then he said with a wry smile, "I didn't expect you two to also be Mr. Jiang's subordinates. I was too slow."
Pu Minyin showed a lovely and sweet smile and said, "Grandpa Zheng, your words make me blush. I only want to marry my boss because he is a handsome man. I didn't want to participate in these things at first, because it's really not my style. But I didn't expect that it would be difficult to refuse your kindness, so I have to do this."
As she spoke, she actually revealed an extremely bashful expression, causing Jiang Cheng to be dumbfounded. Countless curses were running through his heart. For a moment, he even thought with grief and indignation, "Damn it, I didn't pay attention for a while and actually fell into this little girl's trap again. What a big miscalculation."
