Chapter 662 The Complex Situation in WPG's Nihe Kingdom! Testing is mutual! We don't mind changing partners!

Bald eagle.

Johnson & Johnson headquarters.

CEO Boris Bennock is having an encrypted call with Musk.

“Mr. Bennock, here’s the situation,” Musk explained, then added, “Next, we need Johnson Pharmaceuticals to protest, thereby pushing for countermeasures in the Nile Kingdom.”

Boris sighed, "Is this the kind of personality the heir to the Five Watches?"

"Hasn't he investigated the complex situation in the Kingdom of Nirvana?" Boris pressed.

The situation in Nirvana is actually quite complicated!
First of all, the local court of Nihe Kingdom was a complete puppet.

The Kingdom of Nirvana has a military presence of the Bald Eagles, and Air Base 201 is the Bald Eagles' largest military base in Nirvana.

Secondly, the Kingdom of Germany and the Kingdom of Italia-Thailand also have corresponding military bases in the Kingdom of Nyorme.

Doesn't this look complicated enough?

After all, there are military bases of three countries; how could it not be complicated?
Do not!
There are even more complicated ones!

The three countries mentioned above were merely stationing troops in the Kingdom of Nyorme; the real power behind the scenes was the Kingdom of France.

The Kingdom of France stationed as many as 1500 troops in the Kingdom of Nyhe.

This number may not seem like much to the people of Xia.
However, for France, that was already a great deal, considering how small the army of the Kingdom of France was.

France's total ground forces numbered only about 150,000, so a force of 1500 stationed in Nile was already a very large number.

After all, the bald eagle only has about 1000 troops stationed there.

Currently, the Kingdom of France controls the uranium mines, the only economic pillar of the Nile Kingdom, by manipulating the puppet court within the Nile Kingdom.

The Nile Kingdom's uranium resources account for approximately seven percent of the global uranium trading system.

According to the agreement between the Kingdom of France and the Kingdom of Nyorme, the Kingdom of Nyorme was responsible for mining uranium, while the Kingdom of France was responsible for selling the uranium. The final profit-sharing ratio was as follows.
The Kingdom of France accounts for 92%!
That's right!

The Kingdom of France indeed held 92 percent, while the Kingdom of Nyhe only held 8 percent.

Even if it's only 8%, this money still needs to be deposited in the Bank of France designated by the Kingdom of France, and when the Kingdom of Nevada needs to use it, it still needs to undergo multiple reviews by the Kingdom of France.

What's even more disgusting is that even if you pass the review, you can only buy products from the Kingdom of France, and not products from other countries.

Under such immense pressure, the puppet court of the Nile Kingdom also harbored resentment, but the strength of the Kingdom of France overwhelmed the Nile Kingdom, and coupled with the intimidation of troops stationed in other countries, the Nile Kingdom could only swallow its anger.

However, the complexity of the Nirvana Kingdom goes beyond this.

The country of Nihan was in chaos, and the so-called puppet government could only control a very limited area, with many areas having local non-government armed forces.

In addition, the Northern Bear Kingdom also wants to get involved in the Nihe Kingdom. It is rumored that the Northern Bear Kingdom is behind many non-government armed forces in the Nihe Kingdom.

Given such a complex situation, when the desert aloe vera project's planting base was attacked, did An Wuyang actually decide to retaliate directly?

Not even a survey was conducted?

Musk responded, "I guess he should know about the complicated situation in Nile, but he doesn't care at all."

"He talks about how important Aloe vera is, but in reality, Aloe vera isn't even part of their core agenda," Musk added.

"Furthermore, they didn't invest any resources in the Nile Kingdom at dawn. While we were testing him, he was probably testing us as well," Musk added.

In fact, Musk was right!

An Wuyang had already figured out that his 'partner' was testing him on the underlying level, so he also conducted a reverse test.

If the Bald Eagle's partner team can't handle things within the Nihe Kingdom, then An Wuyang wouldn't mind finding a different partner.

In fact, the North Bear Kingdom is developing quite well in Africa. Last year, the North Bear Kingdom "took over" the Mali Kingdom, which is next to the Niger River Kingdom.

In addition, Burkina Faso to the north is also a target of the Northern Bear Kingdom.

Just then, when An Wuyang went to the Northern Bear Kingdom,
If the Bald Eagles can't properly resolve the situation in Nihe Kingdom, then An Wuyang wouldn't mind changing partners.

Whether it's making a choice or taking a test, it's always a two-way street.

Boris sighed, "Then we need to speed things up a bit, lest things really change in the Kingdom of Nihe."

“According to our market assessment, Aloe vera from Curacao in the Niño Valley has the potential to create a market exceeding two billion US dollars annually,” Boris added.

“This market is enough to feed each and every one of us!” Boris said meaningfully.

Musk smiled without saying a word. He wasn't really that concerned about the two billion dollar market each year, but he was concerned about the interest groups formed through this project.

But Musk knows that the more friends he has with vested interests, the better, in order to gain more support.

……

At around 1:00 PM Xia time, An Wuyang finished his meal at Xingchuanlou Restaurant.

Xingchuanlou's cooking is generally good; if rated on a scale of 10, An Wuyang would even give it a high score of 9.

Inside the private room, An Wuyang casually asked, "Qingyue, do you have anything planned for this afternoon?"

An Wuyang did not wait for Xiao Qingyue's reply and continued, "I need to go to Rongcheng Life and Health Group this afternoon to handle some cooperation matters."

Xiao Qingyue immediately responded, "I'll stay at Xingchuanlou this afternoon to handle the matters you arranged earlier, and finalize the salaries and benefits, as well as the reward and punishment regulations, for the kitchen and front-of-house staff as soon as possible."

Their conversation perfectly illustrates the point: 'How am I supposed to know if I have time if you don't tell me what it is?'

An Wuyang explained that he needed to go to Rongcheng Life and Health Group to handle work matters, so Xiao Qingyue naturally wouldn't be traveling with him, and thus responded that she didn't have time.

If An Wuyang needs Xiao Qingyue to accompany him on an afternoon outing, then Xiao Qingyue must have the time.

“Okay, please take Chef Gu’s opinion into consideration.” An Wuyang added, to ensure Xiao Qingyue understood his meaning.

Xiao Qingyue replied affirmatively, "We understand. We will take Chef Gu's opinions into consideration, since Chef Gu understands the catering industry better."

An Wuyang nodded in satisfaction, knowing that Xiao Qingyue had understood his meaning.

An Wuyang took out her phone and contacted Song Jiakun, the executive vice president of Rongcheng Life and Health Group. Waiting for the call to be answered, An Wuyang spoke first, "Mr. Song, do you have time this afternoon? Let's have tea together?"

In the slow-paced life of Chengdu, drinking tea is an important part.

Song Jiakun, who was in a meeting, agreed without hesitation, "No problem, Mr. An, whenever you have time, I'll arrange it right away."

An Wuyang replied, "Now!"

"How about we go to Longquan Mountain for tea?" Song Jiakun asked tentatively.

"The scenery over there is beautiful. You can overlook the Chengdu Plain and enjoy tea brewed with spring water," Song Jiakun added.

An Wuyang readily agreed, "Okay, no problem. Send me your location, I'll be starting from Xingchuan Tower."

"Xingchuanlou's food is quite good!" Song Jiakun praised Xingchuanlou.

An Wuyang immediately raised an eyebrow; he had instantly guessed something.

The turnover of Xingchuanlou after its reopening was a bit too high, almost exceeding Tongzige's predictions, and An Wuyang was wondering what the reason was.

Now that Song Jiakun has suddenly praised Xingchuanlou, An Wuyang suspects that Rongcheng Life and Health Group must have given him a push behind the scenes.
At least Rongcheng Life and Health Group and its partners took care of the business.

An Wuyang secretly sighed, "This Song Jiakun is something else!"
He clearly put in the effort behind the scenes, but deliberately didn't claim any credit.

This doesn't mean Song Jiakun wouldn't take credit; rather, he was waiting for the right opportunity.

It wouldn't be appropriate to directly claim credit!

It was merely a favor to support Xingchuanlou's business. For An Wuyang, it was indeed a favor, but it was too shallow.

Song Jiakun's handling of the situation was quite clever. He offered a light, casual compliment at the opportune moment, which was enough to make An Wuyang understand.

This is a battle of wits between intelligent people!
Less than half a minute after An Wuyang and Song Jiakun hung up the phone, Song Jiakun sent over the address. An Wuyang then said goodbye to Yuan Liyu and Gu Biao before leaving.

After An Wuyang left, Xiao Qingyue called Yuan Liyu and Gu Biao to start discussing employee salaries and reward and punishment regulations.

About an hour later, a convoy consisting of two Audi A6Ls and a Rolls-Royce Cullinan arrived at the Longquanshan Cloud Tea House.

Song Jiakun had arrived ahead of time, bringing with him Tian Shiwen and Wang Bo, the deputy sales director.

The three of them waited for An Wuyang at the entrance of the Cloud Tea House.

As An Wuyang stepped out of the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Song Jiakun immediately went to greet him, "Hello, Mr. An!"

An Wuyang reached out to shake hands with Song Jiakun. To show his respect, Song Jiakun gripped An Wuyang's right hand tightly with both hands and shook it slightly up and down twice.

"President An, this way please." Song Jiakun released An Wuyang's right hand and then gestured for him to come this way.

An Wuyang followed the two into the Cloud Tea House, and then came to a seat next to a floor-to-ceiling window, through which she could see the entire city of eastern Tianfu.

The tea master finished brewing tea for everyone and then left quietly.

An Wuyang casually changed the subject, saying, "President Song, thank you for the five-star card!"

"Mr. An, you're too kind!" Song Jiakun replied immediately.

An Wuyang then looked at Tian Shiwen and jokingly asked, "Manager Tian, ​​what's going on between you and Chef Gu from Xingchuanlou?"

Tian Shiwen was slightly embarrassed, but she responded without any stage fright, saying, "Gu Xiaodong is a good person."

what?
Is this what they call giving someone a "friend zone" card?
An Wuyang is speechless!
"I hope to develop a relationship with Gu Xiaodong. If Gu Xiaodong is willing to accept it, I would like to have a proper relationship with him," Tian Shiwen added.

"Really?" An Wuyang asked with a smile, then added, "Then I'll give you the afternoon off. Go and chat with Chef Gu."

Song Jiakun immediately understood that An Wuyang was trying to get rid of the people around him.

So Song Jiakun agreed readily, "Manager Tian, ​​you're on leave this afternoon. Go ahead and do what you need to do."

To avoid Tian Shiwen misunderstanding, Song Jiakun added, "Old Wang, go out and buy some fruit and snacks."

Song Jiakun's instructions are classic workplace rhetoric!

When Song Jiakun instructed Wang Bo, he only said "go out and buy it" and did not say "come back," which meant that he wanted Wang Bo to leave.

If Song Jiakun really wanted Wang Bo to buy fruit and tea, he would have said, "Go out and buy some fruit and tea."

Wang Bo is Song Jiakun's protégé, so how could he not understand Song Jiakun's meaning?
The two had already worked together on similar scripts countless times, and had even exchanged their understanding of the scripts from the very beginning.

Workplace communication skills are not mysterious things. Usually, they are prepared in advance by leaders and subordinates, rather than something that can be understood on your own in a real emergency.

How could a woman with such high emotional intelligence like Tian Shiwen not understand what Song Jiakun and An Wuyang meant?
She said goodbye directly, "Then thank you for the holiday, President An and President Song. I'm going to visit Gu Xiaodong!"

Wang Bo also got up and left.

After the two left, only An Wuyang, Song Jiakun, and a few of An Wuyang's security personnel remained at the scene.

After a moment's hesitation, Song Jiakun reminded him, "President An, Gu Xiaodong is still young. He should study culinary arts so that he can inherit Chef Gu's mantle."

An Wuyang replied with a smile, "The bitterness of love is best experienced firsthand!"

Upon hearing this, Song Jiakun understood that An Wuyang knew about Tian Shiwen's situation, so he naturally wouldn't say anything more.

"President Song, have you ever wondered who this Mr. Lucius Malfoy really is?" An Wuyang changed the subject, directly bringing up the previous matter.

Song Jiakun was secretly startled. What did An Wuyang mean by this?
Could it be that he suspects that he is secretly investigating Lucius Malfoy's identity?
But he really didn't investigate!

In fact, Song Jiakun even used his network of connections to suppress the matter, all in order to protect Lucius Malfoy's identity information.

After all, that was something An Wuyang had instructed them to do. Rongcheng Life and Health Group estimated that they could earn more than 10 billion yuan in profit from Wugengtian every year. How could they possibly offend An Wuyang?
“President An, I have never been curious, nor have I investigated. His identity information is kept confidential,” Song Jiakun said sincerely.

An Wuyang naturally believed Song Jiakun's statement.

An Wuyang asked this question not to reprimand Song Jiakun, but to introduce the topic at hand.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Song, I didn’t mean to doubt you.” An Wuyang reassured Song Jiakun first.

An Wuyang added, "I think you should be curious about his identity!"
