Don’t panic if you get scammed, give him a Desert Eagle instead.

"I am now worried every day about how to get the construction site started. Large tracts of land are left unused and many people are criticizing me. The key is that the funds I have now are limited, and I cannot help them build those luxurious residential buildings."

Only at this moment did young Franklin deeply realize how many trivial matters would restrict his hands and feet once he entered the actual operation stage.

"Hey! You are really my good son!"

Franklin hung up the phone helplessly, not knowing what to do. Helplessly, he could only come to Jiangchuan's company the next day.

"Mr. Xu, I came here today because I have something to discuss with you. You also know that my son is developing a project in Guyue Country and has encountered some obstacles. And you proposed to expand the factory at this time. To be honest, this is a bit against us."

"what?"

Jiang Chuan pretended to be shocked.

"Can you tell me again? Your son is developing a project in the capital of Guyue Country, and I am in a border area. The two have nothing to do with each other."

Jiang Chuan had expected Franklin to come to ask for an explanation, so he simply took this opportunity to establish his own image.

Sure enough, there was one more person in the office. Mr. Xu, who had just come out of the bathroom, pretended to be surprised when he saw Franklin.

"why you?"

Franklin was suddenly embarrassed. He didn't expect that his old rival would appear in Jiangchuan's company.

"What are you..."

"I'm the company consultant of this young man. I happened to be free today, so I came over to take a look. It's about the company's factory in Guyue Country. I was planning to discuss with him how to increase the wages of the employees there."

Increase wages?

Franklin was shocked. Could it be that they had already started considering the second step?
If they really succeed, then his son will be even more passive in Guyue Country. At least for now, the two of them can't shake this big tree.

"It's not that bad actually. I heard that prices in their country are also rising. If that's the case, we should raise their salaries. After all, they create a lot of value for the company. Taking this opportunity to raise their salaries can also ensure their enthusiasm."

These few casual words from Mr. Xu made Franklin feel at a loss. At this moment, Mr. Xu deliberately sat down and made a cup of tea and placed it in front of him.

"You seemed to mean that you hope we can stop the pace of factory expansion, right?"

"Uh...yes!"

Franklin felt a little helpless. He thought that the enemy was here to call for an explanation, but he didn't expect that the enemy would use Tai Chi to his advantage.

"In fact, I have thought about this matter for a long time. It was me who suggested to Mr. Xu that he must expand the scale of the factory in Guyue Country."

This was embarrassing. If this was Mr. Xu's idea, then Franklin would have nothing to say.

"This is how I look at the problem. Regardless of whether the factory is expanded or not, I think the employment level should continue to improve, right? Moreover, the quality of the workers in Guyue Country is quite high, and they rely heavily on us. If we can help the local area solve some employment problems again, I think it is feasible. This is also a real reward for their former leaders."

"That's right!"

Jiang Chuan also nodded.

"Before Ruan Wenxiang came to power, I promised their former leader that I would find a way to help them solve more employment problems."

Franklin was at a loss at this moment. Was there really nothing he could do?
This is obviously not possible, after all, the youngest son is still waiting for his good news.

"In fact, our original intention was to help them alleviate some of their employment problems. Besides, I had no intention of investing overseas, and their country happened to be our first choice. During this period, we racked our brains to help the company survive. Now, why not take this opportunity to shift part of the investment overseas?"

"I don't object. It's just that you have set your sights on overseas, which does not conflict with our company's strategic planning. Does that mean you are allowed to go ahead and do it, but we are not allowed to take any action at all?" Jiang Chuan's words made Franklin even more excited, and he seemed a little at a loss.

Franklin could only leave the company in frustration, but he was troubled about how to explain this to his son.

"This old fox is so cunning." Jiang Chuan shook his head slightly and thought to himself.

"If you hadn't been here today, I really wouldn't know how to deal with Franklin." Jiang Chuan said to the assistant beside him.

Franklin returned to the hotel and told all the delegation members present exactly what had happened. After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, at a loss as to what to do.

"Actually, I think what he said makes sense. We are each developing in different regions, so how can we influence each other?" A member broke the silence first.

"That's right. You seem a little petty. He has made it very clear. If you don't let him do it, it will be your fault. How can we make friends on the international stage in the future?" another member echoed.

"This is a really sinister move. He already has a good mass base in Guyue Country, and this time he took the opportunity to trick us. And the country of Atlantis where your son is from has a bad reputation internationally, and the local people are not stupid either." Another member analyzed.

The delegation members discussed the issue, and Franklin understood everyone's thoughts, but for his son, he had to find a way out.

"If it really doesn't work, you guys stay here first. I'm going to go to my son's place secretly. The carnival will start in a few days, and I should be able to make it back." Franklin came up with an idea.

"Boss, you'd better not go." One of the members expressed concern. "The leader is still waiting for good news from you. If you suddenly run away to another country, what will happen if he finds out? Will it be considered deserting the battlefield?"

Franklin was also helpless. He had never expected such a change. After thinking it over again and again, he could only call his son again. After hearing this, his son was even more helpless. "What should we do now? They are relying on Jiangchuan's company to expand and won't let us build." The son asked anxiously.

"If it really doesn't work, just agree to their request and give them some money," Franklin suggested.

"Father, that's not possible. If we give them a lot of money, those residents who have moved out before will definitely ask us to continue paying. But we don't have much money to begin with. If we give them more, what will we use to build the building?" the son retorted.

Little Franklin is also at his wits' end at the moment. Since his old father is unreliable, he might as well take this opportunity to go to Jiang Chuan's local company in person.

Zhen Dong got the news very quickly. "It seems that this little Franklin really won't cry until he sees the coffin. It doesn't matter, let him come. I want to see what he can do." Zhen Dong thought secretly.

So, Franklin Jr. led a group of people to Jiangchuan's factory in a menacing manner. However, when he stepped into the factory, he was shocked by the scene before him.

"How can this be a factory? It's like a city!" he exclaimed.

Zhendong is located at the core of the entire company and is also the most eye-catching landmark building in the park. Each factory is managed independently, so there is no need to worry about any problems. What is even more surprising is that there are various housing, commercial areas and even a beautiful park distributed between the factories.

"My God, they are building a university here! Is this a factory or a city? I really don't understand." Little Franklin looked confused.

At this moment, his anger had mostly dissipated. When he saw the team in the factory, he was even more shocked. These people never went to work in the factory, but were constantly training in the local area, and all kinds of weapons and equipment were placed in the camp.

"Doesn't Ruan Wenxiang care?" He was full of doubts.

In desperation, he could only go to the factory headquarters. When he angrily walked into Zhen Dong's office, he unexpectedly found Ruan Wenxiang there, which made him feel very embarrassed.

"I knew you would be together. I came to your country with funds to invest, but you weren't so excited. The place you chose for me still has shanty towns, and now you want us to help find a way to move the stubborn residents away." Little Franklin complained.

"You can't say that." Zhen Dong responded with a smile, "Mr. Franklin, if the locals do everything, what else can you do? In fact, they also allocated this piece of land to us. Later, after our continuous coordination and efforts, we persuaded the locals to leave their homes. And we also kept our promise and gave them many preferential policies."

Franklin Jr. was speechless when he heard this, because he knew very well that he could not do this. After all, he had limited funds.

"In fact, the biggest difference between us and you is that our fortune is in Guyue Country. Although my boss and I are both from Dashang, Guyue Country is indeed our birthplace. We have been working hard and starting businesses here to achieve what we have today. So, we should not forget the people who dug the well when we drink the water. Of course, we should care about the folks here." Zhen Dong's words left little Franklin even more speechless.

Little Franklin, who had originally planned to fly into a rage in the office, was left speechless by Zhen Dong and could only leave in disappointment.

Back on the road, he felt helpless. Now that funds were tight, the best way was to choose a new area. However, when he expressed his gratitude to Zhen Dong, he unexpectedly learned that Zhen Dong did not have a good relationship with their boss. This made him even more confused.

"Although I don't have a good relationship with your boss, I can't let personal grudges affect the lives of ordinary people across the country. Besides, although I have come to power, the people who oppose me are still in the majority, and many of them have a good relationship with you, so I have to pay attention to them." Zhen Dong explained.

Franklin Jr. became increasingly depressed and didn't know what to do. After returning to the hotel, he hurried to the relevant department the next day, hoping to choose a new area. However, he received a negative response.

The officials told him that many local people's houses have been demolished, and only a few nail households remain. If they simply move to a new location, they will not be able to explain to the local people, nor will they be able to afford the construction of residential buildings in a large area.

This put Franklin Jr. in a dilemma. "This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. What should I do? Should I just keep on being stuck here every day and never find a solution?" He was extremely anxious.

He certainly couldn't enter the shantytown, and he had tried to persuade the residents to move out, but to no avail. This made him feel very distressed, and he even dreamed every night about how to get these people to move out.

"Oh!" He sighed helplessly, knowing that if this continued, the consequences would be disastrous.

"If it doesn't work, let's wait and see." An attendant felt sympathy when he saw the look on Franklin Jr.'s face. After all, when he first came to this area, he had been taken care of by Franklin Sr.

However, now, not only did he fail to take good care of little Franklin, but he also let him get frustrated. Zhen Dong told Jiang Chuan the news, but Jiang Chuan did not care too much.

"Let him continue to do it. Little Franklin won't make any big moves in the near future. The most important thing now is our carnival, and we have to hurry up to prepare for it." Jiang Chuan ordered.

The third shareholder then walked into Jiang Chuan's office. "Don't worry, all arrangements for the day after tomorrow have been made. We have made sure everything is safe and we have even invited local troops to help us maintain law and order. This carnival brings more than just orders."

Jiang Chuan nodded. "The situation this time is definitely not as simple as it seems. Especially the delegation from Atlantis, they will definitely try every means to cause trouble for us."

Jiangchuan was secretly worried that Franklin would lose his mind because of his son's affairs and take advantage of this carnival to cause trouble.

"You can rest assured. We have put a lot of effort into security. All cameras are equipped with top-notch equipment." The other party said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan nodded his head in approval: "Great!"

The upcoming carnival is not only a grand event for them, but also a great stage to show their strength. Merchants from all over the world gather here, which is truly an unprecedented event.

A few days later, the carnival opened as scheduled. After an impassioned speech, Jiang Chuan felt an unprecedented honor for the first time.

All activities of this carnival are closely centered around the theme of investment.

Rather than a carnival, it is more of an exchange event for many entrepreneurs from all over the world, where they continue to promote their respective business cooperation.

Jiang Chuan naturally became the focus of everyone's attention, and people who wanted to see him had to line up in a long queue.

In the evening, Jiangchuan specially arranged a cocktail party for all the bosses.

The bosses all know that tonight's reception may bring unprecedented opportunities. (End of this chapter)
