Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 503 Cooperation reached
Mr. Cao was shocked.

Not only him, but even Mr. Song and Manager Wang beside him were so shocked that they opened their mouths.

The news Xiao Ran gave was too shocking.

You must know that the maze cities outside are full of ghosts and evil spirits. Often there may not be even a living person in a maze city, and there are all kinds of strange and weird rules and constraints.

A place without evil spirits, without evil spirits, and even retaining its original inhabitants, is as big as a province. This is simply a treasure and simply incredible.

In fact, Xiao Ran also thought that if the story developed as it did, and Lu Cheng and himself had not intervened, by the time this maze city was opened, the yellow tide would have already slaughtered the world, shrouding the entire world in the shadow of the locust god. At that time, when they entered the maze city again, what would greet them, in addition to evil spirits and demons, would probably be many strange and evil ways.

For example, the Yinshen Sect, Zhenxian Temple, Tieshan Niangniang, Heifengzi, etc., this group of evil spirits should have grown up completely by then. Just thinking about it makes people feel hopeless.

"Are you sure you're not kidding?"

President Cao leaned forward and stared at Xiao Ran with sharp eyes. Suddenly, a sense of pressure fell on Xiao Ran. It was the country's aura that was crushing Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran calmly drank a sip of tea and said, "The maze city should be open in the next few days. Here is the route map. You can send people to guard the door now. I can't say what the situation is inside now, but after entering, just go straight to Ruzhou. At that time, at the governor of Ruzhou, your people can directly meet the highest official of Ruzhou, and he will hand over the rest of the things to you."

As Xiao Ran spoke, he took out a sign and a written list, which contained the situation of the entire Ruzhou, including the land, officials, finances, garrison, population, and so on.

This was something he and Lu Cheng had thought of long ago.

Just as Xiao Ran's Jingqi Pavilion needs the help of Donglongfang, Lu Cheng also needs the help of external forces to further enhance the combat effectiveness of his soldiers.

This requires huge resources and financial and material resources.

Relying solely on Ruzhou's resources is far from enough.

Xiao Ran meant that it would be best for Lu Cheng to cooperate directly with the company, but the specific implementation method would depend on Lu Cheng's own wishes.

When looking at the list Xiao Ran handed over, Mr. Cao stood up from under the table abruptly: "Wait a moment."

Then he walked out the door quickly.

For a moment, only Mr. Song and Manager Wang were left in the conference room, staring at each other.

Mr. Song was fine, but Manager Wang started to get restless. He regretted following him. How could he hear such a big thing?

"My friend, I haven't seen you for a while. How is that set of soft armor?"

Taking advantage of the gap, Old Song couldn't wait to ask about the effect of the dragon soft armor on Xiao Ran.

"Great! Without this soft armor, I would probably be lying in a coffin now."

Xiao Ran did not hide his love for this soft armor at all. It was precisely because of this soft armor that he was able to escape from Huang Chao and even the emperor's hands.

"Okay, okay, now that you have money, why not consider upgrading? It's not expensive. I have a plan. About 500,000 will be enough."

When Xiao Ran heard the price, he rolled his eyes and quickly declined: "No, no, no, I think it's good enough now."

The construction cost is 500,000, which is something he cannot afford now. As for the money he has on hand, he still needs to go to the Netherworld to purchase goods. In the future, he will ask Chongshan and others to establish a complete supply channel. Everything will cost money, and this amount of money may not be enough by then.

"Mr. Xiao, are the news you said true?"

Manager Wang asked cautiously.

"Of course, if this cake wasn't too big for me to finish, why would I come to cooperate with Donglongfang?"

After getting Xiao Ran's confirmation, Manager Wang couldn't help but look melancholy.

The maze city is opening faster and faster, but except for the Bone Spirit Street which still has clear rules, other places are not so safe, let alone a place to live for a long time.

If the news is true, just based on this incident, the top management of Donglongfang and the company would be alarmed.

It is estimated that there will be a lot of fuss from Mr. Cao's side, but if there is no accident, the matter will not be reported immediately. Someone should be sent first to confirm whether what Xiao Ran said is true.

About half an hour later, Mr. Cao came back with his people.

This time, Director Li and Jingzhe, who had just fought with Xiao Ran, were also present. In addition, there were a few other people. They stood with Jingzhe, looking serious, and it was obvious that they all came from the military.

Xiao Ran squinted his eyes and looked at the few people. He could see that these people were masters like Jingzhe.

"These are all the top masters of Donglongfang. In addition to Jingzhe, there are Bailu, Qiufen, Mangzhong, Xiazhi, and Guyu. The others are still outside doing tasks, but they will be back soon."

Mr. Cao introduced these people to Xiao Ran. They were all top soldiers in the army, some even the best among the best. Now that they have become beginners, they are even more powerful.

With the support of Donglongfang, his strength can be considered top-notch among all beginners.

Their titles are named after the twenty-four solar terms, but so far there are only thirteen of them, which is far from full.

"We will follow the route you gave us to investigate. Is there anything else we need to pay attention to?"

"Yes. If you encounter Huang Zai's army, you must avoid them. Also, be careful of a guy named Huang Chao. This guy is very strong, and..."

Xiao Ran frowned, thought for a while and said, "At this stage, he is the kind that cannot be defeated, so don't even think about challenging him. If possible, please bring some supplies to help my brother, who is now the highest commander of Ruzhou City. After all, he is under a lot of pressure to protect a place."

President Cao wrote down all this, then stood up and signaled Jingzhe and the others to act immediately according to the route given by Xiao Ran. Even if they had to wait outside, they had to wait until the maze city was opened before entering and blocking the entrance and exit.

Afterwards, President Cao said to Xiao Ran, "Don't mind. This matter is too big. I need to have solid evidence before reporting it to the higher-ups. As for the cooperation, don't worry. Donglongfang doesn't have such a big appetite. If you can show your sincerity, Donglongfang will also show equal sincerity in return."

"If possible, I hope that Manager Wang can serve as our liaison in the future, so that everyone can feel more at ease." Xiao Ran looked at Manager Wang again.

Mr. Cao turned his head and looked at the bewildered Manager Wang, and said with a smile: "Of course, Xiao Wang, you will be responsible for following up on this matter. Just report everything directly to me, and I will help you open the corresponding authority."

"Okay, please rest assured, Boss, I will complete the task."

Manager Wang was still confused, but the only thing he was sure of now was that he had become rich.

Xiao Ran stayed in Donglongfang very late. Seeing that the sky outside had gradually calmed down, Mr. Cao and others advised Xiao Ran to stay, as Guling Street would be very dangerous at night.

But Xiao Ran did not plan to stay here for long. The cooperation had already been agreed upon, and now all that was left was for Donglongfang to confirm the news, so he had to go back as soon as possible.

He still had a lot of things to deal with. After finishing them, he had to rush back to reality and go to Bashu to settle the matter of Plum Blossom Taoist. Time was tight and the task was heavy. Xiao Ran really had no time to rest.

Although it is late now, it is enough time for him to walk to his home area. That is Li Ji's territory, and he will not be affected.

After saying goodbye to Manager Wang and others, Xiao Ran immediately left.

"Boss, this is Xiao Ran's information. We have already investigated it once before. There is no problem. The company gave a very high score. The supervisor likes it."

After Xiao Ran left, Director Li brought the file of the last investigation on Xiao Ran and handed it to General Manager Cao.

Mr. Cao read it carefully. No joy, anger, sorrow or happiness could be seen on his face, but Director Li could feel that Mr. Cao's mood fluctuated greatly, from his breathing, eyes, and even the aura that Mr. Cao unintentionally revealed.

"Boss Cao, this guy is extremely ambitious. He wants to take advantage of the Changchun Club's hiding period to become the fourth giant. We are tied to this chariot, and I'm afraid the days ahead will be difficult."

Director Li asked tentatively.

Xiao Ran didn't say a lot, but in the eyes of these cunning people, Xiao Ran's thoughts were almost secretless.

Even though the Changchun Association is now afraid to show up, Donglongfang is well aware of how powerful the Changchun Association is. With such a big piece of cake now in the hands of Donglongfang, how could Penglai Tower and Changchun Association not be tempted?

At that time, all the pressure will fall on Donglongfang.

"What I'm worried about is, once the other party rises, will they..."

Director Li was halfway through her words when General Manager Cao raised his hand to interrupt her speculation.

Putting down the file in his hand, General Cao stood up and said earnestly: "Xiao Li, you are wrong to think this way. I want to criticize you. The will of the country will never be diverted because of an individual. You must believe in the power of the great will."

Seeing Director Li's puzzled expression, General Manager Cao walked to the window, looked at the banging fire in the casting area of Donglongfang, and gave an example: "There was a troublemaker in the class who was disobedient and liked to bully his classmates. All the teachers disliked him, but the head teacher made him the monitor. Gradually, the troublemaker became an outstanding cadre in the class, and his classmates gradually began to like him. This is the power of great will."

After saying that, Mr. Cao turned around and looked at Director Li meaningfully: "The world is yours, and it is ours, but in the final analysis, it is yours..."
