Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Citibank, Louisiana, Crowburg.

Eileen is dealing with inquiries from the powerful figures in the Lawrence family.

Raul Lawrence is the current head of the Lawrence family.

Erin's cousin, Duke Lawrence, represents the family in Citibank's Extraordinary Division.

Gerald Lawrence, the head of the Lawrence family in business and finance.

In addition, there are four other Lawrences with numerous businesses under their names, forming the highest level of the Lawrence family.

"Gu Zhao has already taken you to the moon, and you still haven't gotten into his bed?" Claire Lawrence asked.

He didn't have a good relationship with Eileen's father's branch of the family, and subconsciously suspected that Eileen had hidden something and kept most of the benefits for herself.

Eileen smiled and asked, "Guess?"

Claire squinted. "I'm asking you."

Eileen shrugged, her tone casual, "If you don't trust me, why did you ask me?"

Duke nodded and smiled, "I trust you, so when can you take me up there?"

Eileen raised an eyebrow. "If you go to Tianxia, ​​we'll take you with us next time we go to the moon."

Duke laughed, and Claire's anger intensified. "You still say you and Gu Zhao aren't having an affair?"

"Do you think Gu Zhao will come looking for you if I relay this to Xiao Ya and Jiang Shishi?" Eileen crossed her legs.

Claire's eyes narrowed. "I'm your uncle!"

Eileen nodded and said calmly, "Luckily, you're my uncle."

Gerald smiled slightly. He had never liked Claire; although she was young, she always wanted to challenge his position.

Although the lion is old, it is not incapable of fighting.

"Is Mr. Gu closely connected with the Tianxia system?" Gerald asked.

“I’ve never seen Mr. Gu in contact with anyone in the system,” Eileen replied, “but I believe they must have a secret communication channel.”

“Moreover, Mr. Gu must be a very special existence among those extraordinary individuals in the Daoist sect,” Eileen affirmed.

“Why do you say that?” Gerald asked.

"Last time, when the Taoist superhumans cleaned up the telecom fraud zones in Southeast Asia, what did you think was the trigger?" Eileen asked.

"Aren't those the people who abduct ordinary people in Tianxia?" Claire interjected.

Eileen glanced at Claire. "That's definitely the most important reason, I mean the trigger."

Duke asked, "Could it be related to Mr. Gu?"

Eileen nodded. "At the time, one of Gu Zhao's friends was traveling in Siam."

Gerald's eyes narrowed. "Then three Daoist superhumans actually made a move."

Duke, who had been working in the United States' Extraordinary Response Department, knew more than most people: "Gu Zhao's speed in getting to the moon was faster than the speed at the Tianxia lunar base."

The lunar base's moon landing took six hours; Gu Zhao's moon landing will only take one hour.

Another old man said, "There's another important point: Gu Zhao is not a Taoist priest."

"Could it be that Gu Zhao is the leader of that group of Taoist extraordinary individuals?"

"Even if they are not the leader, they are still quite special."

“If they are a group of reclusive Taoist priests, then they certainly might not have close ties with the Tianxia system,” someone analyzed. “But if it’s a young man in his twenties…”

Another person analyzed, "Is it a good thing that a young person possesses extraordinary power but remains detached from the existing system?"

"Ok?"

A sudden twist left everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

Sometimes the same arguments can lead to completely different conclusions.

Everyone looked at Raul Lawrence.

Raul squinted, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke, "Young, powerful, lustful, and willful..."

Such a person is almost completely incompatible with Tianxia's existing system, like fire and water.

Since that's the case,..."

Before Raul could finish speaking, Eileen's phone rang. Raul remained expressionless, while the others glared at Eileen with displeasure.

Eileen picked up her phone, "Shishi."

Raul's lips twitched, and everyone else looked away. Duke gestured with his hand.

Eileen smiled slightly, answered the phone, and even put it on speakerphone, "Shishi?"

"Have you finished your meeting with your family?" Jiang Shishi asked.

Eileen looked around. "It's still open."

"That's good. Gu Zhao told me that if the Lawrence family sides with Tianxia, ​​Gu Zhao will give your patriarch a golden bracelet and a pot of rejuvenating wine."

The Golden Gang bracelet is said to nourish the body, prolong life, ward off evil spirits, and protect the wearer. The Rejuvenating Wine is believed to not only nourish the body but also replenish yin and yang, restoring youthful appearance.

Jiang Shishi said on the phone, "The Golden Gang Bracelet personally made by Gu Zhao is much more precious than the pendants that the system gave out before."

This is called "spending a fortune to buy a horse's bones," meaning to let your clan leader seize the opportunity. The first conditions that the Tianxia people usually offer are the best.

By the way, come back as soon as you finish your meeting. I heard that things are in a lot of chaos in the United States lately, and several powerful figures have been shot.

Xiaoya and I discovered another hidden gem of a Hunan restaurant, so we went to check it out together when we got back.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, I'm hanging up." Jiang Shishi said and hung up the phone.

Eileen looked at Raul.

Raul tapped the table. "If that's the case, the fact that Gu Zhao can cooperate happily with the Tianxia system shows that both of them have a broad vision."

"Only by following people and countries with vision can we go further."

Raul concluded, "We are second-class citizens in Citibank, and we can never join the Squid and Onsa circles."

Although Gaul and Tianxia are of different races, they are both revolutionary base areas, and Tianxia's attitude towards Gaul is much better than towards the Squid and Onsa.

“Since we can’t be the best anywhere, we should naturally go to a place that values ​​us more,” Raul said seriously.

Everyone, "..."

Gerrard was the first to speak, saying, "I think it's entirely possible. As long as we follow the rules, Tianxia's business environment will even surpass that of Citibank."

……

Before she had even finished her meal, Jiang Shishi received a reply: the Lawrence family was preparing to jump ship.

"Tell the Lawrence family to hurry, or someone else might beat them to it," Gu Zhao said with a smile.

"Why? Is there anyone faster than the Lawrence family?" Jiang Shishi asked.

"No," Gu Zhao shook his head, "It's just that Yun Yang has another big gift package to give away."

"What kind of big gift package?" Xiao Ya asked curiously, "Are you sending more people to the moon?"

"One gift is enough once, this time we have to try something new."

"What new tricks?"

……

A group of container ships departed from Shanghai and arrived off the coast of Okinawa.

"Shall we start from here?" Yun Yang asked, standing on the cargo ship's deck.

"Don't underestimate this place just because it's not a key shipping route; it's actually more crucial than any key shipping route."

A middle-aged man next to Yun Yang said, "If we have a foothold here, we will block all the southward routes of Yinggao and Nanbang."

At the same time, all Citibank bases in the First Island Chain are trapped and their escape routes may be cut off.

Moreover, this distance is just right; there's little logistical pressure, but it's enough to put significant pressure on others.

In this way, the South China Sea would become an inland sea of ​​China, and we could pacify Southeast Asia with minimal cost, and the Straits of Malacca could be subdued with a mere proclamation.

Yun Yang nodded as if he understood, but he didn't care about anything else and just focused on building the island.

"Right here?" Yun Yang pointed to a patch of sea in front of him.

"Yes, this is a small underwater plateau, the closest to the sea surface."

"Yes, yes, that will make things easier for me." Yun Yang leaped into the sea. (End of Chapter)
