Chapter 483: Chapter 462 Deep Involvement

Gao Yi made a phone call to Li Jie.

It had been a long time since they last contacted, and it was only for a matter that he reached out, and because of just that, Gao Yi felt somewhat ashamed.

"Busy?"

Gao Yi didn’t know why he blurted out asking if the other party was busy, but anyway, that’s what he did.

"It’s three o’clock in the middle of the night, what do you think?"

"I guess you’re staying up late playing games."

Li Jie was silent for a moment, then he finally said, "You guessed right."

"There’s something I need to talk to you about. Hmm, could you register a company in the United States for me? Just a shell company, but it needs to be used for transactions. It’s not a weapons company, just a regular trade company."

"Er, my current studio is already keeping me pretty busy."

"Think bigger for a change. Set up a trade company that will handle large transactions. I can’t trust anyone else with my money."

Li Jie fell silent once more, then he said in a low voice, "You want to set up a front so it’s easier to distribute money to others in future, right?"

"Correct."

"Then you definitely have to register it yourself. Even if it’s just for transactions, you have to do it personally. Otherwise, if something really happens in the future, who will the people that took the money protect? You or me?"

Gao Yi was rendered speechless once again.

What Xinfeng told Gao Yi was slightly different; Xinfeng suggested that Gao Yi should register a company in the Cayman Islands, but Li Jie’s intention was for Gao Yi to register directly in the United States.

Among their group, Li Jie was the best at doing business, as he had actually been involved in such matters before, so Gao Yi thought maybe he should just listen to Li Jie.

"You register a company, and I’ll do the same. Then you acquire my company, and that will make things easier. However, I can’t be the chairman, it will lead to problems over time. So, I’ll register a weapons company since Donkey has some interesting ideas about firearms, and I’m planning to turn his designs into products. This way, your company will also have a semblance of tangible industry, and I’ll be your manager. How does that sound?"

That seems workable.

Gao Yi pondered for a moment and said, "This company, do you think it’s better to go through Pentagon connections or CIA connections?"

"Definitely the Pentagon. The CIA doesn’t have as much influence on American soil, and a company that receives orders from the Pentagon, no matter how small, will be regarded highly. I have already thought of the name of the company, it will be called Hammer Weapon Co., Ltd, and I’ve designed the logo as well, just a warhammer, which we’ll put on the guns we produce in the future."

"Uh, okay, how should this company be registered then?"

"Go through the formal procedures, don’t skip any of the required steps. What you need to do is to ensure that this company qualifies to supply the Pentagon. For the rest, just run it like a regular company, making sure no one can find any faults with it. Send me your information, and I’ll find an agency to help you with the registration. With a little money, it can be done quickly."

"Then I can only register using the name Gao Busi."

"Is there a problem with the name Gao Busi?"

Gao Yi thought for a while and felt that there really was no issue.

"Alright, let’s get started on it then."

Gao Yi hung up the phone and sent his driver’s license number to Li Jie, then he said to Feng Biao, "How come it ends up being my company again after all this? The company here has to be in your name then."

Feng Biao nodded and said, "This side is quick, special cases get special handling. As long as I give the nod, the business license can be obtained by tomorrow at the latest."

Now there were no outsiders, Xinfeng and the others had gone to rest. With only Feng Biao and Lucy in the room, they could say anything freely. As for the chance of bugs and such, there was absolutely no need to worry about that.

"That’s quite fast. Abdulla is coming today; should we greet him in person, and what about Mu Tianwen and Teacher Mu? Should we also meet for a meal? I was thinking of bringing them all together, as a way to bring Prince Ha Leide and Shaman closer together."

Prince Ha Leide was Gao Yi’s earliest Number One Master, but in the end, he couldn’t compare with Prince Shaman. However, Gao Yi did not forget his first main supporter just because he had won Prince Shaman’s favor.

Prince Ha Leide was now seeking refuge, just like those Gao Yi took out in the UK, France, and Germany, but thanks to Gao Yi, Prince Ha Leide’s name was not on Shaman’s list.

Prince Shaman had said that after three years, Prince Ha Leide could return, but Gao Yi couldn’t be complacent with just that assurance. He felt that if there was a chance, he should still let Prince Ha Leide make contact with Prince Shaman’s trusted aides.

It was quite ironic when you think about it. Initially, Abdulla was responsible for hunting down Prince Ha Leide, yet after twists and turns, now the two dejected men happened to meet at Northeastern University.

After contemplating for a long time, Feng Biao said, "Yes, but first ask Prince Ha Leide’s opinion. It’s best to arrange their meeting only if both parties accept. What do you think?"

"We’ll ask Abdulla once he arrives."

Gao Yi picked up the phone and dialed Mu Tianwen.

"Big brother, what’s up?"

Mu Tianwen’s first reaction upon answering the call was that Gao Yi needed something. Gao Yi somewhat embarrassingly said, "Nothing much, I’m back. I’d like to invite you and your father for dinner tonight, along with Teacher Mu. Are you free this evening?"

"When did you arrive? Of course, I’m free, and my dad definitely has time; he’s been talking about you. I’ll call him. What would you like to eat? I’ll book a restaurant."

To an ordinary family, handling household affairs at the age of fourteen or fifteen would be inconceivable, but for Mu Tianwen, spending within US$ 100,000 was just a matter of mood.

So, it was no big deal for Mu Tianwen to book a restaurant.

Gao Yi spoke softly, "I will call your father to invite him. I’ll take care of the restaurant arrangements. The thing is, Abdulla will also be coming today, and I would like your father to meet him."

After pondering for a moment, Mu Tianwen said gravely, "It’s not bad to turn an enemy into a friend, but forgetting past grievances with just a smile is something my father can’t do. He would definitely get angry seeing Abdulla. If he has to dine with one of Shaman’s dogs, my father would never accept it. I’ll go by myself."

Frankly speaking, Mu Tianwen was much stronger than his father in many aspects.

Harold was good at spending money, but Mu Tianwen knew much more.

Gao Yi thought for a moment, then sighed, "Alright, but I still have to inform your father. It would be improper if they didn’t meet. I’ll get back to you later."

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yi turned to Feng Biao and said, "Harold probably won’t want to see Abdulla. Actually, meeting face-to-face would probably be awkward for both of them, but there’s no helping it. We can’t ignore the courtesy of a greeting."

Feng Biao, high in emotional intelligence, said with a smile, "That’s right, can’t neglect anyone, can’t show any disrespect. Well, that’s how these things go."

Gao Yi found Harold’s phone number, still the one from Northeastern University, and dialed.

Harold answered, and Gao Yi said cheerfully, "Big brother, it’s me, I’m in town."

Harold sounded thrilled too, exclaiming loudly, "You’ve come back to the country? That’s great! Where are you? I’ll come to you, or you can come to my place."

Gao Yi felt that it was somewhat inappropriate to call Harold now, but he had no choice and said, "Big brother, here’s the thing: I just arrived this morning and then I had some things to deal with. So, Abdulla is also coming, the one from the Intelligence Bureau, and I was thinking... I feel like maybe you could meet Abdulla, just... um, just have a chat. After all, he’s one of Shaman’s confidants, and having a good relationship now would make things easier for you when you return to Saudi."

Gao Yi knew Harold well enough to expect a refusal, but while refusal was one thing, he still had to inform him.

Unexpectedly, after a moment of hesitation, Harold spoke softly, "I despise this person, but... I will meet him."

"Alright."

Although surprised, Gao Yi promptly agreed.

Harold, with a sense of emotions said, "I have to think about Muhan’s future, he has to return eventually, and as a father, I must pave the way for him."

"That’s right, meeting Abdulla is basically like meeting Shaman. It’s a matter of attitude. Big brother, I think as long as you show the attitude that’s expected, like full support for Shaman, then your family might be able to return earlier."

"I don’t want to rush back now, but the stage for Muhan is not here. When he’s older and more mature, he could entirely return to Saudi to hold an important position. As for me, brother, actually I don’t really want to go back now, haha..."

After laughing twice, Harold spoke heartily, "If I can’t contend with Shaman, then let him have it. Once he returns a part of my wealth, I can just travel around the world, which is not bad either."

Harold and his son were quite interesting; it was unexpected that Harold had now reached a new level of growth, almost catching up with his son.

"Alright, big brother, I’ll let you know once the dinner time is set. We’ll see each other tonight."

After ending the call, Gao Yi shrugged his shoulders to Feng Biao, saying, "Harold actually agreed to meet Abdulla."

"That’s normal. Where will dinner be?"

Gao Yi thought for a moment, "If not, we can just eat here; the chefs here are really good."

"Don’t forget the dietary preferences of Mu Tianwen and his family."

"I’ll ask."

Gao Yi called Huang Haisheng, then spoke softly, "This is what’s happening: Tonight, I plan to host a dinner for Harold and his son, and also Abdulla. I want to arrange a meeting, a dinner together, and Teacher Mu is likely to come too. I’m not sure where to book for the meal, is our guesthouse restaurant suitable?"

Without any hesitation, Huang Haisheng said, "No problem, it’s definitely okay, it’s good to arrange it here. I’ll let the kitchen know; they can prepare for any time."

After hanging up, Huang Haisheng told the staff in his office, "Mr. Gao wants to host. He’s inviting Prince Harold and Prince Shaman’s envoy, Abdulla, for dinner."

One staff member immediately voiced in surprise, "Really? Can Mr. Gao actually get deeply involved in Saudi affairs? This is... this is quite significant. I didn’t expect that. Mr. Gao has considerable influence. This matter has a profound impact. I think, should we ask the higher-ups to meet him? It would be best to participate in tonight’s dinner as well, right?"
