You’re Quite Arrogant!

827: Chapter 827: Mr.

Xu!

You’re Quite Arrogant!

“Trouble comes for those who ask for it, and those who are good don’t ask for trouble!”

The famed Mr.

Xu from Liuli City, does he really need to stoop so low?

Wu Jie rolled out of bed and quickly made his way to the bedside.

He pulled back the curtains.

There, under the shade of a tree directly opposite the apartment building entrance,

Xu Feng was on the phone, gesturing with his hands.

Beside him stood Yang Weiye and Wang Kun, with four sturdy, imposing bodyguards behind them.

Since the epidemic control measures had been lifted and everyone knew about the Divine Detoxification Pill that could cure all diseases,

it wasn’t just them; many people inside and outside the community weren’t wearing masks either.

Wearing a mask was too inconvenient, not to mention running—people would huff and puff even just walking quickly.

People had been cooped up for too long and were now letting loose.

This was why both the distant commercial street and the nearby farm-to-table restaurants were bustling.

Looking at Xu Feng’s overly sinister smile, Wu Jie suddenly thought Xu Feng had a bit of a eunuch vibe.

His voice, his face…

No, that’s wrong!

Since this guy had been drugged and castrated long ago, he must already be a eunuch!

No wonder the cackling laughter that came through the phone when he picked up was so odd.

“Hey Mr.

Wu, why aren’t you talking?

I can see you!

On the balcony of the eighteenth floor, wearing just a pair of red underwear!”

“Ts ts, you really live it up, huh!

Wearing red underwear, is this your lucky year or something?”

Wu Jie snorted with a chuckle.

“Since you’ve already come, then find a private room in the restaurant and wait; I’ll be there shortly!”

“Got it!”

Xu Feng chuckled, waved his hand again, and left with Wang Kun and his party.

Wu Jie drew the curtains and quickly checked the Security Bureau’s confidential software.

Zheng had sent a private message at five in the morning.

“Mission accomplished, have arrived safely!

A storm is brewing, and a building is about to fall!”

Those simple sixteen words were enough to explain a lot.

Shen Liang, considered by the Kong Family of Liuli City to be a thorn in their side, was more dangerous than a heavy-duty time bomb.

And now it was about to explode, and it was uncertain how many would fall with Kong Hailin.

But…

Seeing Xu Feng’s smug look just now, it was clear he didn’t know about it!

That was to be expected.

Due to Kong Hailin’s abuse of power for personal gain on the secret mission early in the morning, Xu Kuishan knew all the details like the back of his hand.

Zheng must have learned his lesson and definitely used a more covert method to secretly move Shen Liang to Liuli City.

Besides, Elder Tan, who wanted to strike at the powerful, would surely keep tight control.

Not to mention Xu Kuishan and his son, even Kong Hailin probably didn’t know that Shen Liang had been brought to Liuli City.

Putting away his phone, Wu Jie took a quick shower, changed his clothes, and went downstairs to the banquet.

Someone inviting you to a meal and not going would be a waste!

Especially in the case of Wang Kun…

When he had doggedly pursued Tang Xiao and invited her to dinner, Tang Xiao brought Wu Jie along.

To show off his superiority, Wang Kun spent over a hundred thousand yuan on a meal, nearly causing a scene there and then.

Would he pretend to be generous at this meal?

Walking to the restaurant.

With the epidemic control order lifted, business here had suddenly boomed.

Before, with no dine-in customers, they had relied solely on takeout orders.

Upon entering, a waitress came up to greet him, informing him that guests were waiting for him in private room number one upstairs.

Wu Jie thanked her but didn’t rush upstairs; instead, he wandered around the lobby.

Those who often dined here knew that the restaurant was owned by Wu Jie and his buddy Zhang Hao.

And many had tasted the dishes cooked and grilled by Wu Jie himself.

Looking around, there were many familiar faces!

Wu Jie exchanged greetings with them before heading to the kitchen.

Zhang Hao had changed.

All his focus was on making money; he even shaved his head to show his dedication.

When he first arrived in Tianyuan, he was quite lean and dark, but his spirits were good.

After preparing the dishes ordered by Xu Feng and others, Wu Jie helped carry them upstairs to the private room.

Inside the room.

There were only a few minutes left until noon.

Xu Feng and the other two were watching a live auction and chatting idly.

With the lifting of the ban on the production and sale of the Detox Pill, the midnight auction had drawn global attention.

And the noon auction was still as hot.

Everyone was curious to see how, after the first round of bidding, the many pharmaceutical companies would alter their strategies.

Would they form more alliances to fight as groups, or continue to go it alone?

Xu Feng and the others were also discussing, pondering over how much to bid and how many to bid on to have a better chance of winning.

The door opened, and the three’s discussion came to a sudden halt.

Seeing Wu Jie, looking like a waiter serving them dishes…

The three of them were momentarily taken aback.

For goodness’ sake!

The billionaire who earns billions a day was personally serving dishes…

was this some kind of divine treatment?

Yang Weiye immediately stood up with a smile plastered on his face, eager to pass the dishes.

“Whoa, Mr.

Wu, you’re too kind!

Why bother serving dishes yourself?”

The always well-dressed and stately Wang Kun, though motionless, was also filled with surprise.

A lot can change in three days!

Though it had been more than three days since they had seen Wu Jie, the two men’s statuses had changed dramatically in less than half a year.

Even though Wang Kun had become a famous real estate tycoon in Tianyuan, compared to Wu Jie, he was even more impressive.

An entrepreneurial genius whose app software was a hit, he made a name for himself worldwide by winning the bid for the Zhuzhou SAM project, developed the Detox Pill to resolve the virus epidemic, and made a fortune…

Most importantly, he married the fair-skinned, rich, and beautiful Tang Xiao, a dream girl whom Wang Kun had once longed for both day and night.

In his eyes, Wu Jie was already at the pinnacle of life!

But…

Why are you still moonlighting as a server, passing dishes around?

That’s really embarrassing!

But…

Now, the tender and delicate Xu Feng, who has a gentle disposition, didn’t seem to mind at all and even greeted everyone cheerfully:

“Mr.

Wu is truly down-to-earth and capable!

No wonder he won Tang Xiao’s heart and obtained the approval of Tianyuan’s Tang Family, achieving such enviable success!”

Wu Jie responded with a faint smile.

He pulled over a chair, sat down, and started to eat with chopsticks.

“I overslept and missed breakfast, so I won’t stand on ceremony, and neither should you.

Hurry up and eat!

I cooked these dishes myself.

If they’re not to your taste, don’t hold it against me!”

As he said this, the three of them were slightly startled.

Wu Jie really wasn’t holding back, sitting down and digging in.

But that was also a good sign—it at least proved that the dishes weren’t poisoned!

Xu Feng couldn’t help but reveal a honeyed smile, while Wang Kun had a look of indifference, probably no longer affected by Wu Jie’s scruffy appearance and demeanor.

Yang Weiye gave an awkward smile.

“Look at what you’re saying, if Mr.

Wu cooked the dishes, they must be a delicacy!”

Speaking, Yang Weiye sat down and looked eagerly at Xu Feng.

“Mr.

Xu, please go ahead and eat!”

Xu Feng nodded slightly, glanced at the TV screen, and then picked up his chopsticks to eat.

It was only then that Wang Kun and Yang Weiye started to eat as well.

At that moment,

the TV broadcast updated.

“Now, we see that the pharmaceutical companies that have obtained Detox Pills through cultural relic exchange have all updated their data!”

“The country with the most this time, Country F, has returned over four thousand seven hundred cultural relics…”

The host was narrating, but Xu Feng was not concerned with that.

His gaze shifted from the TV screen to Wu Jie.

With a light smile on his lips, Xu Feng kept watching Wu Jie devour the food voraciously.

“You had a tough night last night, Mr.

Wu, eat more!”

Saying this, Xu Feng moved several plates of meat dishes closer to Wu Jie.

Wu Jie glanced at Xu Feng and said with a smile,

“How can I compare to your dad’s hard work?

I just do a little business, and yet he came to talk to me about business in the middle of the night.

Your Liuli City’s Xu Family holds me in too high regard!”

Xu Feng chuckled, “You’re too modest, Mr.

Wu!

Leaving aside your group’s traditional internet communication business, the graphene composite batteries, electric vehicles, swapping stations, Detox Pills…

aren’t all of these big businesses?”

Picking up chopsticks and pointing to the TV screen, Xu Feng said with a smile,

“Look!

The auction is about to start again, and there’s quite a number of Detox Pills being released—150,000 pills!”

“In ten minutes, you’ll be raking in two to three hundred billion yuan again.

With such a unique business, how could it be considered a small trade?”

As he said this, Wu Jie could clearly feel that Wang Kun and Yang Weiye were extremely envious!

Their eyes were wide, and they were practically drooling.

The whole world knew about Wu Jie’s windfall of over thirty billion yuan in the midnight auction twelve hours ago.

And now, at noon…

Such a rate of making money was brutally efficient.

Before coming out, Wu Jie had also seen that the system’s energy points were surging like crazy recently.

Thanks to the virus epidemic and the Detox Pills, there were just way too many people envying and resenting him lately.

At this rate, Wu Jie estimated that it would take no more than two or three days to complete the seventh system reward task.

“People only see the thief enjoying his spoils, but they don’t see the thief getting beaten!”

“Sales figures shooting over a hundred billion are indeed frightening, but the costs are substantial too!”

“What, you want to get into the Detox Pill business, too?”

The ‘too’ from Wu Jie was particularly grating.

Xu Feng couldn’t help but laugh at himself.

“Mr.

Wu, oh Mr.

Wu, stop making fun of me!”

Putting down his chopsticks, Xu Feng said with self-mockery,

“I admit, the Detox Pills were crazily overpriced a while ago, with black market prices almost breaking through three million!”

“The profit margin was just too astonishing, so our family, through Rosdelle’s Auxiliary Business Association, managed to get some!”

“But who would have thought, before we could sell much, you just…

argh, let’s not talk about it anymore!”

“I swear, we didn’t make any money, but ended up losing several billion.

It really is frustrasting enough to make me want to spit blood!”

After a brief pause, Xu Feng gestured towards Yang Weiye and Wang Kun.

“After much thought, I feel that only by collaborating with Mr.

Wu can we see a broader prospects and earn a profit!”

Wu Jie smiled without comment, continuing to busily eat.

After looking at Wang Kun, Yang Weiye happily said,

“Our thoughts are simple, can Mr.

Wu provide us with graphene composite batteries?

After all, Tianyuan Green Energy Auto currently only has three models on sale, a sports car, a sedan, and an SUV!”

“And vehicles like buses and trucks are not yet in production; we’d like to help you expand the battery’s range of application!

If more vehicles can be powered by these batteries, then your swapping stations would do even better business, right?”

No sooner had these words fallen when Wang Kun added,

“In fact, since the graphene composite battery performs so excellently, it could also be used in many other fields, like mobile phones, tablets, laptops—there’s no need to limit it solely to electric vehicles…”

Wu Jie listened silently.

A playboy who spent his days in luxury, a chubby entertainment club owner, a real estate snob…

Unexpectedly coming to talk business with me?

Like a bunch of hooligans suddenly wanting to study diligently…

something’s off here!

Soon, the results of the auction were announced.

Just as everyone expected, it was a huge consortium.

More than forty national pharmaceutical companies came together and, at the price of two hundred forty thousand, secured all one hundred fifty thousand Detox Pills.

“Three hundred sixty billion yuan!

Congratulations, Mr.

Wu, on making another hundred billion!”

Xu Feng offered his congratulations with clasped hands and a beaming smile.

Wu Jie put down his chopsticks and retorted with a cold laugh,

“Can we skip beating around the bush?

Just say what you want to say!”

Xu Feng straightened his face, and Yang Weiye along with Wang Kun suddenly fell silent.

“I really did come with an agenda in addition to legitimate business!”

Xu Feng leaned in and asked with a smile, “I want to ask Mr.

Wu, in your eyes, how much is Shen Liang worth?”

“Shen Liang is not in my custody!” Wu Jie bluntly stated.

“It doesn’t matter whose custody he’s in, but he’s in Tianyuan!” Xu Feng said with a smile: “Kill him or hand him over to us—you choose one!”

Wu Jie raised his eyebrows,

“One or the other?

Mr.

Xu!

You’re quite bold!”

“If I don’t choose, would you kill me to silence me?”
