Who would still be a social slave when they are so rich?

Chapter 423: Is this manor really given to me?

The phone had just rang three or five times when Xiao Chen's hearty laughter came from the receiver: "Haha, what a coincidence! I was just thinking about calling you, but you called me first!"

This sudden tacit understanding made Su Chen slightly startled: "Call me? Brother Chen, is there something urgent?"

"My matter is not urgent, but you called me on your own initiative, so it must be something important, right?" There was a hint of curiosity in Xiao Chen's tone.

Su Chen stopped being polite after hearing this and went straight to the point: "It's nothing serious. I have prepared a private banquet venue near the Siheyuan and specially invited the chefs of the eight major cuisines."

"I happened to be trying out dishes at Siheyuan today, and I thought if you are free, why don't you come over and taste them?"

"Eight major cuisines? And a master chef?" Xiao Chen's voice on the other end of the phone suddenly rose a few notches, "Of course I'm free, I'll come right over and just take care of things while I'm at it!"

Before Su Chen could reply, he heard a busy tone "beep-beep".

Su Chen looked down at the hung up phone and could only shake his head and smile helplessly.

"By the way... why did Brother Chen look for me? About the overseas training camp?" After Su Chen thought about it for a while, he didn't think about it anymore. Anyway, when Xiao Chen came, he would naturally know what was going on.

After a quick shower and changing into comfortable home clothes, he took the elevator up from the basement and saw Chen Fei leading Xiao Chen in from the moon gate in the middle courtyard, holding a file bag in his hand.

"Brother Chen, with your speed... you wouldn't have already left the house when I called!" Looking at Xiao Chen who walked in, Su Chen couldn't help but laughed and joked.

It was only about ten minutes since the two of them ended their phone call. You should know that it takes about the same amount of time to get here from the Xiao family courtyard.

Xiao Chen laughed, raised the file bag in his hand and said, "I was planning to come to you, but who knew you would call me first."

Su Chen didn't pay attention to what Xiao Chen said. Instead, he fixed his eyes on the document bag in his hand and asked with a puzzled look: "Brother Chen, what is this?"

"Good stuff!" Xiao Chen threw the file bag on the table and sat down on the sofa. He pointed at the file bag and said, "Take a look at the stuff yourself. There's a lot!"

Su Chen did not take the file bag immediately. Instead, he arranged for Chen Fei to get two cold drinks and some iced fruits. Then he opened the file bag and took out the thick stack of documents inside.

There were at least several documents in that stack. Su Chen picked up the first two documents and took a look at them, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

These two documents were the asset transfer agreement for a small African country that had been previously agreed upon with Mr. Xiao, and the agreement on the exchange of assets for 20% of the port's shares.

Su Chen flipped through the first agreement regarding those African industries, and the content surprised him a little.

I originally thought it was only about 30 to 40 billion US dollars, but I didn't expect it also included industries from other small countries in the surrounding area, which added up to about 50 to 60 billion.

Su Chen was not too surprised by this... After all, the value of his dozens of ports was more than 30 billion US dollars. Even if he took 20% of the shares, it would be worth at least 6 billion US dollars.

If you think about it, Su Chen is at a slight disadvantage.

After all, ports can make money quickly, but those industries, projects, and mining areas all take time to develop, which is far behind ports.

"What's going on? They even gave me the difference?" Su Chen looked at Xiao Chen and asked, holding the transfer agreement.

Xiao Chen swallowed the iced watermelon juice in his mouth and explained, "You agreed to the Africa matter without saying a word, and you were willing to give out shares in the dock. No matter from which aspect, you can't suffer a loss!"

"I originally wanted to give you more industries as compensation, but other industries in Africa are currently very stable, and it also involves some important layouts, so I can only start from other aspects!"

As he spoke, Xiao Chen took out a thin document from the back of the documents, took a look at it, and after confirming it, he handed it to Su Chen and said, "Here, this is your compensation."

Su Chen put the two documents in his hands aside, and took the document with a curious look. It was thin, only about three or two pages.

After reading the contents, a look of surprise immediately appeared on Su Chen's face.

A manor!
It is a large manor located on a mountain in the western suburbs of the imperial capital, with an area of ​​20 acres. It was built in the style of Su-style gardens and imperial capital courtyards. It is similar to the courtyard where Su Chen lives now, but its area has been expanded many times!
In addition, there are special horse farms, golf courses and a small breeding park, which are very suitable for summer vacation.

Su Chen took the two or three pages of documents and read them over and over again. He smacked his lips, looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "Brother Chen, isn't it a bit inappropriate to give this manor to me?"

Although Su Chen said that it was inappropriate, he had no intention of putting down the document in his hand. Instead, he held it even tighter.

It’s not that Su Chen has never seen the world, but he is indeed envious of this manor on the mountain in the western suburbs.

Regardless of whether the manor is well decorated or not, its location alone is enough to explain everything!

Xiao Chen naturally noticed the change in Su Chen's expression, but he was not surprised. Even when he learned about this, it took him several minutes to fully digest it.

If it were someone else, they would not be as calm as Su Chen. They would probably have cheered wildly.

"Just accept it with confidence. This is the decision made by the old man and the others after discussion. In addition... the old man asked me to tell you that it is better not to keep Fat Tiger at home. You can send him to your new manor, which has a special breeding facility."

Hearing this, Su Chen nodded thoughtfully. It was indeed inconvenient to keep Fat Tiger at home. In addition, being confined in one place for a long time would inevitably cause some problems.

"Okay, then I'll take over this manor. As for Fat Tiger, I'll make arrangements for him as soon as possible!"

As he spoke, Su Chen quickly put away the agreement regarding the manor, as if he was afraid that someone else would take it away.

Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then he laughed softly, "I say, you guy, no one is competing with you for it, is there any need to be like this?"

Su Chen didn't say anything, but just looked at Xiao Chen silently.

That look? Xiao Chen felt strangely hurt. He wanted to stand up and shout that he didn't have that kind of thought, but he didn't... because he was also greedy!
Who said that the manor was something that even a top young master in the imperial capital like him could not even dream of?

"Ahem~" Xiao Chen coughed tactically, then pointed at the file bag and said, "There's only one document left. Take a look. If there's no problem, sign everything you need to sign!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen turned his gaze to the last document in the file bag. Compared with the previous one in the manor, this one was much thicker, and there was no text on the cover.

"What's the content of this document? It's so mysterious!" Su Chen muttered softly and picked up the document.

At first Su Chen seemed a little nonchalant, but the more he looked at it, the more serious his expression became, and at the end he even frowned.

Seeing Su Chen's serious expression, Xiao Chen wanted to explain the situation, but the next second, Su Chen's words almost sprained his waist. "No way, old man is still thinking about the money in my pocket?"

This document is related to overseas training camps and the relationship is very close!

The content is also very simple, and the central idea is just one - sales!
That’s right, sales!
All kinds of equipment for future overseas training camps, from combat uniforms to various advanced weapons, can be purchased through domestic military industry channels. We are very enthusiastic and offer a 30% discount. If the quantity is large, we can still negotiate!
The most important thing is that those weapons are not limited in quantity, but only in generations!

To put it bluntly, it means taking out the things that were eliminated in the past and selling them. As for the ones currently in service... just take a look at them and don't think too much about them.

How many elite talents can be trained in a year for the overseas training camps that have not yet been established? How many weapons can be used?

It is even euphemistically called for training in overseas training camps.

Isn't this clearly asking Su Chen to do a part-time job in arms sales and help solve the inventory problem?

If you think about it carefully, there is some truth to it.

Su Chen has this channel!

With the advantages of IPS Security Company in various parts of the world, are they still worried about not being able to sell the equipment? Even they themselves need it!

Then there are those "obsolete" equipment, which, although not as good as the latest models in service, are still in great demand internationally, especially in Africa or the Middle East.

It can be said that as long as the price is right, there will be no shortage of buyers.

As long as you tell the warlords that you have all kinds of arms in large quantities, countless people will flock to you without them having to open up the market.

In Africa and the Middle East, only those who have grasped the "truth" can speak with their backs straight; otherwise, they will just become the leeks harvested by the chaebol groups.

Su Chen narrowed his eyes and tapped lightly on the cover of the document with his fingers. At this moment, he was thinking in his mind whether he should take advantage of this opportunity to expand his industry into the military field.

He did not forget what he had done before, asking Professor Wu to arrange the shipyard at Zhengdao Wharf. He also specifically asked Professor Wu to see if he could apply controlled nuclear fusion technology to the ship to build a nuclear-powered "cargo ship"!
Besides... Su Chen didn't know whether his system would give him a surprise in the future. If there was a big technology gift package in the military field, wouldn't he be able to directly manufacture those advanced military products?
Then will launching a satellite, building a spacecraft, going to the moon, and exploring Mars still be a dream?

As Su Chen thought about it, his thoughts drifted further and further away, and he began to fantasize unconsciously, with a grin on his face.

"Hey, what are you thinking about? You're laughing so lewdly? Your saliva is almost flowing out!" Seeing that Su Chen was caught up in his fantasy, Xiao Chen couldn't help but stretch out his hand and wave it in front of his eyes.

Su Chen came back to his senses, coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment, wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of his mouth with his right hand calmly, and said with a smile: "Nothing, I'm just thinking about how to expand the market!"

Xiao Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard that. He also said he was expanding the market. Did he really think that he, Xiao, had no brains?

However, Xiao Chen did not expose Su Chen's intention, but said seriously: "Take a look, if there is no problem, just sign it. I am still waiting to taste the skills of those chefs!"

When Su Chen heard this, he asked Chen Fei to get him a pen and signed his name on the documents one by one without hesitation.

After confirming everything, Xiao Chen put away all the documents and asked, "Who are you going to assign to be in charge of the overseas training camp? Do you want us to assign someone, or do you want to assign someone yourself?"

Hearing this, Su Chen thought for a while before saying, "Don't worry for now, let's wait until things in Africa stabilize!"

Xiao Chen shrugged indifferently, "It's all right. It won't be done in a short time anyway! By the way, I'll send you a pass in a couple of days, so that you won't be unable to even enter the gate of the villa when you go there!"

When talking about the manor, Su Chen's eyes lit up, "Ahem~ Brother Chen, please move faster, I want to see what my manor looks like as soon as possible!"

Seeing Su Chen's smug look, Xiao Chen curled his lips speechlessly, "Got it, I'll send it to you as soon as I get it, that should be fine!"

"Hehe~ Then I'll trouble you, Brother Chen!" The smile on Su Chen's face was so bright!
At this moment, the housekeeper Jiang Hui came in from outside, walked to Su Chen's side, and said respectfully: "Sir, the kitchen is almost ready, and the dishes can be served at any time!"

Before Su Chen could say anything, Xiao Chen stood up and walked outside, muttering, "Let's go, let's go and try the craftsmanship of those masters. I've been eating so much lately that I'm almost thirsty!"

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen's back disappeared from sight.

Su Chen couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. It seemed that the old man kept a very strict control on him when he was at home.

He turned to the housekeeper Jiang Hui and ordered, "Tell the kitchen to prepare the dishes. Also, bring out a bottle of the treasured Maozi. Good dishes must be paired with good wine!"

After saying that, Su Chen stood up and walked towards the direction where Xiao Chen left.

When Su Chen arrived at the restaurant in the east wing of the central courtyard, he found that the table was already filled with various exquisite dishes, and Xiao Chen was waiting anxiously with chopsticks in his hand.

Seeing Su Chen coming, Xiao Chen couldn't help but sigh: "You are really extravagant, boiled cabbage, braised abalone, shark's fin, ham stewed turtle... all of them are the hallmarks of various cuisines. The preparation alone takes two or three days."

Su Chen smiled and pulled out a chair and sat down, saying with a smile: "You also know that I like this, otherwise I would not think of opening a private banquet hall, just to facilitate the pleasure of oral sex in the future."

Seeing the host Su Chen picking up his chopsticks, Xiao Chen, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately picked up a piece of crystal clear shark fin in front of him and put it into his mouth, closing his eyes and savoring it carefully.

After about five or six seconds, Xiao Chen opened his eyes with joy and whispered, "Delicious!"

"Su Chen, your cooking skills are amazing, not worse than the state banquets I ate before. It seems I will have to come to your place more often in the future!"

"By the way, when will your private banquet hall open? I'll come and join in the fun for you then!"

Su Chen swallowed the abalone in his mouth, drank two mouthfuls of the cabbage soup, and then responded: "I don't plan to open the private banquet hall to the public. I originally thought of it as my "canteen". I can order whatever cuisine I want without running around!"

"Later, I thought about getting a bigger place so that I could have a meal and chat with a few friends, which would be more lively."

"Brother Chen, if you want to have a meal or entertain friends in the future, just go directly. I think you can get a gold card or something like that as proof of identity!"

Xiao Chen was speechless after hearing this.

Just for a bite to eat, not only did he buy a courtyard house near Shichahai, but he also hired a top chef from the eight major cuisines. Xiao Chen could only say, "You have money, you can do whatever you want, I am happy!"

What else can Xiao Chen say?
I can only happily enjoy the delicious food on this table! (End of this chapter)
