216: Chapter 216: High Difficulty!

Being Arrogant?

No sudden windfall, no wealth!

Having made up his mind, Wu Jie began to observe his surroundings.

The standalone garden-style villa with its main building standing in the center of the garden.

The walls of the courtyard were towering and even topped with electrified barbed wire.

Surveillance cameras were installed everywhere to ensure that there were no blind spots in the monitoring.

There were fixed posts, as well as men in black with dogs patrolling, making the security tight.

Climb over the wall?

You’d probably be caught before you even made it into the villa.

Dig a tunnel in?

When Wu Jie entered the garage, he noticed that the house was made with a large amount of reinforced concrete.

So even if you were to tunnel into the garage, you’d still be discovered.

What about airdropping…?

Are the eyes of these hundred or so men in black, along with the hunting dogs, not working?

“Damn it!

It’s as impregnable as a fortress!”

While secretly lamenting, Wu Jie caught sight of his car and suddenly paused.

“Holy shit!

I actually forgot my phone and car keys, handed them over during the security check!”

Huang Siwei immediately laughed and said, “No worries, your car can’t possibly be stolen here, I’ll drive you there.

It’s not far from the restaurant anyway, and after drinking tonight, we can easily arrange for someone to drive you back!”

Wu Jie cheerfully replied, “Great!

Then tonight, we must drink till we drop!”

“Definitely!”

Huang Siwei respectfully invited Wu Jie into the car and personally drove off.

Exiting from the underground garage, Wu Jie took the opportunity to estimate the distance.

The business van was over five meters long, and from the villa to the courtyard gate was roughly four car lengths, about twenty meters.

“Such a long distance, a bit tricky!”

Wu Jie frowned slightly.

He had read the news that one billion in new banknotes, if stacked tightly together,

would form a 1.55 meters long, 0.77 meters wide, and 1 meter high cube, weighing 1.15 tons.

But the money collected by Wang Taixiong and his group was not all new banknotes.

Some had even been stored in damp places, becoming moldy and defective, or nibbled by rats.

So 6.7 billion would be at least eighty-plus cubic meters, around ninety tons.

The villa venue, that could accommodate more than a dozen large round tables, could easily fit that, and it could be transported using a dozen or more trucks.

But what could Wu Jie do?

He couldn’t possibly wait until they had gathered all the money and then storm in, wiping everyone out.

Moreover, with billions of illicit money stored here, who knew how many people would be guarding it.

If anyone dared to break in, they’d probably be shot full of holes within minutes.

…

Vroom~

The business van sped along the road, a delivery truck coming from the opposite direction, then zooming past.

“Why are there so many delivery trucks on this road?” Wu Jie casually inquired.

Huang Siwei replied, “There’s a large logistics park two kilometers away, where many courier companies have warehousing and transfer points.”

Wu Jie laughed, “Isn’t courier delivery done by electric trikes or small vans?

Why use big trailers?”

“No choice!

Online shopping is so popular, there’s so much courier delivery, for inter-city express lines, courier companies all use big trucks for transport.

The more they carry, the more they earn!”

Huang Siwei, holding the steering wheel, chuckled and said,

“Online shopping is so convenient these days!

Maybe one day, you could even buy a beautiful bride online!”

“No way!

Aren’t you afraid it’d leak air or electricity?”

Wu Jie teased, turning to look out of the window.

With a hum, another delivery truck roared past.

“A triple-axle box trailer, visually over 17 meters long, nearly three meters in height, definitely could fit a hundred or more cubic meters!”

“Such a vehicle could easily transport thirty or forty tons, pulling ninety tons is no problem either, it just can’t run fast or go far!”

As Wu Jie was quietly calculating, the business van turned a corner, driving towards the nearby film and television city.

Dusk fell.

The film and television city with its various buildings from different eras and countries, was still bustling with activity.

Wu Jie stood in the highest private room of the restaurant, resting on the railing, looking into the distance.

Many crews were working overtime, filming night scenes.

Huang Siwei came up to him and whispered,

“Mr.

Wang just called and said he really couldn’t make it, but if Mr.

Wu needs, I can go and find you a few actresses of good quality right away, and after a full meal…”

Wu Jie shook his head and said, “Tonight is just for dining, no entertainment, otherwise I’d have no way to explain when I get home!”

“So President Tang, heh, I understand!” Huang Siwei left with a sheepish smile.

Shortly after,

people arrived in the private room.

Huang Siwei immediately introduced them one by one to Wu Jie.

Director, screenwriter, producer, cinematographer, production designer, sound recordist…

All the powerful figures in the film crew were present.

Before the company’s shares were restructured, Wu Jie would indeed be their leader, so they were extremely polite one by one.

Wu Jie didn’t put on airs either and asked many curious questions.

During the casual conversation, the dishes were all served.

Even the makeup artist was running out of things to say, while Bai Fengling and her agent had not yet arrived.

By now, it was already eight thirty.

“We agreed to start at eight, why haven’t they arrived!”

Huang Siwei muttered under his breath, starting to get irritated.

It was one thing to act like a diva usually, but to be late to a dinner with Director Wu tonight, wasn’t that a slap in the face for the company?

The worst thing in a dinner party is when the air suddenly goes quiet.

Huang Siwei felt that everyone was almost out of conversation, so he took out his phone to urge them.

Before he could make the call, the door to the private room opened.

A middle-aged woman with a simple dress but heavy makeup walked in, giggling.

Behind her followed a tall and statuesque woman.

Even with sunglasses and a mask, it was clear that it was the superstar, Bai Fengling.

“Sorry everyone for being late, I was recognized by fans on the way here and was surrounded for quite a while before I could get away…”

The agent said, and then pulled out the chair next to Wu Jie to sit down, making Bai Fengling sit on the other side.

Huang Siwei squeezed back to his seat, scoffed, and chuckled,

“We agreed to eat at eight, and here we are half an hour late!

The crowd that was surrounding Miss Bai must have been several thousand strong, right?”

“But right now, apart from the film crews and extras, where are there so many fans around here?”

That statement was dripping with sarcasm.

It was almost explicitly saying Bai Fengling and her companion were deliberately late.

However…

After sitting down, Bai Fengling, who was still wearing sunglasses and a mask, didn’t utter a word.

It was the agent sitting next to her who chuckled and said,

“There weren’t many fans, but they were indeed very enthusiastic.

They came from far and didn’t eat dinner, so Fengling couldn’t bear to see them like that, which is why she signed autographs and took photos with them, chatting for a bit longer.”

“Let’s eat quickly then!

Don’t let such delicious food get cold!”

“Wait a moment!”

Huang Siwei declared loudly,

“Let me introduce the gentleman beside me, this is Wu Jie, the Director of the Supervision Department!”

“He has supervisory authority over our company, which means he has the power of life and death over all our filming projects!”

Upon hearing this, the agent immediately turned around.

She had no idea that the unimposing Wu Jie had such big clout.

Surprised and smiling, she quickly extended both hands to grasp Wu Jie’s right hand.

Her expression was one of eager excitement, as if she had just met a long-lost relative.

“Director Wu, hello, I am Bai Fengling’s agent, everyone calls me Bi, but you can call me Little Bi.”

“Hello!”

Wu Jie nodded stiffly, struggling to pull his hand back.

“Now that everyone’s here, let’s get on with the meal!”

Wu Jie picked up his chopsticks, and the others followed suit, starting to eat.

But Bai Fengling still didn’t move.

She sat there like a wooden figure, not speaking or lifting her chopsticks.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward…
