"Please lead the way."

When the Shi siblings saw the couple come out, they had been following them quietly from behind. Seeing the butler invite them up the stairs, Shi Junhui was so angry that his eyes were almost popping out of his head.

"Sis, am I seeing things? The old man actually called them in! "

"You don't have to care about this. Just keep going. There are a lot of people watching here, so don't let them get away."

Shi Mengyao was more able to maintain her composure. Although her heart was burning with anger, her face was still expressionless as she calmly walked out.

However, when the two of them were very close to the gate, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind and patted on Shi Mengyao's shoulder.

"Please wait a moment."

… ….

Jiang Chen and Jiang Chen followed the butler upstairs. Only then did they realize that the villa got more and more grand the higher it went. The first floor already looked very grand and magnificent, but compared to the second floor, it was nothing.

The corridor upstairs was filled with famous people's calligraphy and paintings, all of them priceless. However, the owner was standing right outside, as if he was not afraid of being stolen or broken at all.

The width of the corridor was wider than many of the rooms in the house. Along the way, there were all sorts of display cabinets.

The two of them walked to the study on the furthest side of the second floor. The butler indicated for them to go and left.

The door to the room was open. When the old man saw the two of them, he greeted them amiably, waving at them, "Come in!"

Jiang Chen saw that the old man was easy to get along with, so he teased, "People say that you are not allowed to reveal your wealth. You really have a lot of treasures along the way. Aren't you afraid of being targeted?"

"Hahaha, of course something good is for others to see. What's the point of hiding it all the time?"

"If you say so, why did you pretend to be the owner of a small restaurant yesterday?"

"Don't slander me, I'm not pretending to be the boss. That little restaurant was indeed opened by me, and I usually really do live there."

"Oh?" Jiang Chen obviously didn't believe it. How could someone with so much money be willing to stay in such a small place?

"When you get to my age, you will know that once you grow up, you will lose all your vigor. I don't want to do any big business or earn any big money right now, I just hope that I can stay in this snowy countryside and roast the fireplace every day."

The old man's words were not unreasonable. After experiencing so many vicissitudes of life, who wouldn't want to find a comfortable place to settle down and live a peaceful life?

"You're right, I was impolite. My lover and I discussed it yesterday. When I grow old, we can buy a small house here. Who knows, we might become neighbors again in the future."

"Hahaha, you sure know how to make me happy. When you grow old, I will definitely be gone!"

"I've chatted with you so much, but I still don't know your name."

"Just call me Master Qi."

Since he didn't want to say his real name, Jiang Chen didn't ask further. After all, there was something else bothering him right now.

"Master Qi, this banquet is over. Did you call me here to let me see your exhibits?"

Of course Master Qi would not be so bored, as the saying goes, one does not visit the Three Treasures Palace for no reason. Although he said that he wanted to enjoy his old age, in reality, he had not forgotten about his work.

"Young man, you're really impatient. I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I've heard about the jade carving base you built over at Meng Du La's side. This time, I called you here to talk about cooperation."

"Oh? I never thought that everyone would know about this. How do you want to cooperate with me? "

"There are a total of five mines from the Meng Du La Center to the east, and this is also the area that you can use. I heard that Chu Tian Ge has already gotten four, and only one has yet to be taken down. You shouldn't be willing to accept this, right?"

As Master Qi spoke, he observed the expression on Jiang Chen's face. Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and he knew that Master Qi was tempted.2

However, Jiang Chen wasn't a fool. No one was willing to give out half of what they have at hand for no reason, and he was no exception.

"But, I feel that with our own abilities, we should be able to take down all five mines, there's no need for us to work together, right?"

"You may not have to work with me in the mines of Madagascar, but what about Burma? What about Sri Lanka? Madagascar is not the only place in the world that produces gems. Are you willing to do this? "

Jiang Chen was obviously not willing to do things like this. Doing things requires one to be at the top, and this was also his principle. However, with his current ability, wanting to truly conquer all the mining areas was just a dream.

"Master Qi, I'm really interested in these places, but I also know that they are too far away for me. I only need to conquer Madagascar, and I'll have to take the rest of the places one step at a time."

Just sponsoring Tian Ge to take over these mines was already a bit too much money for Jiang Chen. No matter how much money the God Slayer Alliance could make, it would still be taxed. Moreover, they had to support other scientific research projects, so Jiang Chen had to make good use of his time to return.

Master Qi had seen this and had come to seek cooperation.

Although you may not have heard of my name, but there are many mines in the world that have shares in me. If you cooperate with me, I can also provide a portion of the funds to you, and you can also handle the management and management of the mine. I just want to get a dividend every year, so I won't interfere too much.

"I'm old and like to collect weird things, so I'm very anxious without any income. So you don't have to worry about my ambition, I just want to use my current assets to create a higher value. You should be able to understand what I mean, right?"

If Jiang Chen believed his lies, then that was the problem with his brain. This old man had the ability to buy the entire Madagascar with his own abilities, but he didn't do so, instead, he went for the next best thing: seeking cooperation. To put it nicely, he wanted to acquire assets, to put it in a bad way, he simply wanted to find a puppet to replace him and open up territories outside to attract firepower!

However, Jiang Chen wasn't sure if he was right or not, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he hoped that the other party would give him more time to consider.

After leaving the villa, the two walked back to the hotel hand in hand. They were both deep in thought and did not say a word.

The two of them wholeheartedly wanted to increase their Soong Group, but they never thought that they would encounter so many choices after doing so.

In the end, it was Soong Ying who could no longer hold herself back. "Hubby, do you think we should agree?"

Jiang Chen sighed, "Although our Soong Group has developed quite well, it is still considered first-rate in the country, but it is not the strongest. Also, look at Lord Qi's collection, just selling a few is enough to buy our company, right? If he's so capable, why does he have to work with us? "
