Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

"President Zhan, President Kang, is this all you wanted to tell me?"

"No, that's not it. I just explained the reason..." Zhan Weiting hesitated for a moment, then rubbed his hands and said, "President Chen, we've run into this problem and may need to reorganize our manpower."

We invited you here to discuss whether it would be convenient for you to talk to that senior colleague and ask if we could postpone the transport time by a few days.

An Xiaohai raised an eyebrow and lowered his head to think. Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai stared at An Xiaohai intently, observing the changes in his expression.

After a while, An Xiaohai suddenly stood up: "Gentlemen, I have done everything you asked me to do, according to your requirements."

Now that a problem has arisen, you're asking me to change the time again. But have you two considered this? Do you think changing a delivery schedule is as easy as me eating or farting?!

Okay, I'm not going to say any more of this; it's pointless.

We have handled things according to your requests. As for any problems you encountered, that is none of our business. In principle, I will not return that ten million.

However, we all live in Haixi Province, and we'll run into each other all the time. I just returned to Haixi and don't want to make enemies with you all.

Tomorrow I will have my secretary, Xiaoyu, return 400 million to you two. That's the best I can do.

Our collaboration ends here. Goodbye!

After An Xiaohai finished speaking, he turned to leave. Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai immediately became anxious and rushed forward, each grabbing one of An Xiaohai's arms.

"President Chen, please don't be angry! We know it's not our fault, we apologize! We're sorry! President Chen, please don't be so heartless, let's talk again, let's talk again, everything is negotiable!" Zhan Weiting was practically begging.

"Yes, Mr. Chen, please sit down a while longer. For the sake of our acquaintance, please give us some advice. I'm begging you!" Kang Lianhai said, emphasizing the word "begging."

An Xiaohai stared at Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai for a while before reluctantly sitting back down in his original seat.

"Mr. Chen, I was thinking, since Secretary Xiaoyu is so familiar with the underworld in Shenzhen, could we ask her to help us find out if our missing people have been caught by them?"

Zhan Weiting asked tentatively.

An Xiaohai looked at Mai Xiaoyu, who shrugged: "Sorry, I'm really not familiar with them, and I've even had some minor conflicts with them. I just know a few people in that underworld, and I've heard about it a lot."

"I see..." Zhan Weiting frowned and lowered his head.

"President Zhan, President Kang, I don't recommend that you make contact with the underworld in Shenhai City right now!" An Xiaohai suddenly interjected.

"Mr. Chen, what's the reason for this?"

"First of all, if something happens to your people, it doesn't necessarily mean that it was done by underworld figures in Shenhai City. If you go to their door now, you're basically putting the blame on them."

Okay, if it really was them who did it, and they've taken out all your people, what are you going to do? Go to war with them? If it wasn't them, you'll offend them the moment you open your mouth;

Secondly, I don't know exactly who you arranged to go there.

If you're not that close to them, the underworld in Shenhai City probably won't be able to trace you for a while. Even if they do, you're in Haixi and they're in Haidong, so they can't do anything to you for the time being.

This means that you are still hiding in the shadows, but once you come knocking, you will be exposed.

Under the current circumstances, you two should refrain from making any more enemies.

Kang Jiaxiang is currently in Shenhai City. If you really become enemies of the Shenhai City underworld, then you can forget about saving him.

Even if this was done by the Shenzhen underworld, you shouldn't have exposed it at this time.

"Mr. Chen's words make perfect sense! So, Mr. Chen, what do you think we should do?" Kang Lianhai was truly anxious.

"What should we do?..." An Xiaohai frowned and thought for a while before continuing, "The best way I can think of is to completely throw Shenhai City into chaos."

"As long as Deepsea City descends into complete chaos, even with fewer manpower, you still have a chance of success."

"To throw Deepsea City into complete chaos?... How?"

"Heh!" An Xiaohai chuckled coldly, "Do I need to teach you this?"

"Mr. Chen, please stop joking with us!" Kang Lianhai was almost in tears. "Weiting and I are just ordinary businessmen, unlike Mr. Chen, who has seen it all. We really don't know what to do!"

"Yes, Mr. Chen, please teach us!" Zhan Weiting quickly chimed in.

"Don't say I can't teach you! This isn't my problem! This needs to be made clear. I can only tell you two what I would do if I were in this situation."

"Yes, yes, this is our matter, Mr. Chen, please tell us!"

"Let me give you both an example," An Xiaohai said after thinking for a moment:

"Once, I discovered a small oil field near a village in the Middle East, so I joined forces with an armed group that I had a good relationship with, and we wanted to take over that place."

However, there was already a very powerful armed group there. After fighting two battles with them, I realized that we were no match for them.

Later, out of desperation, I simply leaked the news, which resulted in several armed groups coming and fighting with the local armed groups over that small oil field.

Two months later, the powerful local armed group was broken up, and the other armed groups were also severely weakened. In the end, I took the opportunity to occupy that area.

I didn't keep it all to myself. I gathered all the leaders of the armed groups together for a talk, and we jointly developed that oil field.

Of course, I got the biggest share of the benefits.

An Xiaohai stopped speaking here, and the private room fell into a deathly silence.

"Mr. Chen, I understand your story. It's a classic case of using one tiger to devour another! But there's a small oil field in the Middle East, which is why you were able to sway the tiger. However, Deepsea City doesn't have any small oil fields!"

After a long while, Zhan Weiting finally spoke.

"If there are no oil fields, then create one!"

For example, if it were me, I would have Mr. Gust issue a bounty: I would offer ten million US dollars for the heads of Zhou Zhengguo, Wang Tiejun, and Zhou Meng!

Isn't this an oil field?

If all the assassins in the world flock to Deepsea City, even if the city's underworld is incredibly powerful, could they possibly wipe them all out? They can't possibly be that all-powerful, can they?!

Zhan Weiting and Kang Lianhai were stunned once again; Kang Lianhai's eyes had completely lost focus.

"My God! Ten million US dollars!..." After a long while, Kang Lianhai finally gasped and exclaimed.

"I was just using an example. Of course, you could also offer a hundred million US dollars! The bigger the oil field, the more tigers there are. It's up to you."

"..."

"Okay, that's all I can say. I shouldn't have said these things!"

Sometimes, you just have to prove yourself!

That's how the world is; you can only move forward, not backward. Once you take the first step back, you'll take the second, the third, and eventually, there will be no place for you left in this world.

I think things have come to this point, it's no longer a matter of money, it's a matter of life and death.

Okay, that's all for today. You two can think it over slowly. I need to rest.

After An Xiaohai finished speaking, he was about to get up again, but Zhan Weiting stopped him once more.

"Mr. Chen, I understand what you mean. You're absolutely right! Thank you so much for your suggestion!"

However, even if we do that, it might be too late. Could we ask Mr. Chen, that senior colleague, to help us postpone the deadline by a few days?

"How many days exactly?"

"Five days, plus the original three days, makes a total of eight days, which is enough."

600.

"Sure!" Zhan Weiting didn't hesitate for long before gritting his teeth and nodding. "However, Mr. Chen, time is of the essence. I can't raise that much cash right away. How about I give you 100 million US dollars?"

"One million US dollars is more than six million."

"Consider the rest as a treat for Mr. Chen to have tea. Please don't find it offensive. We've decided to be friends with Mr. Chen!"

"Okay, let's do it that way."
