The system only arrives when you're old? Then let's create a super-rich family!

As night deepened and all was quiet, the hustle and bustle of the capital city of Shangjing never subsided.

Outside the window, neon lights stretched out in a continuous line, and dazzling lights pierced the deep night. The streets were bustling with traffic, and the shops along the street were brightly lit and filled with the sounds of people. Everywhere was a scene of extravagant prosperity, showing the grandeur of the capital city as a top-tier metropolis.

Qin Zheng sat on the recliner by the window, his gaze sweeping lightly over the bustling night scene outside, yet he was surrounded by a serene tranquility, completely at odds with the restlessness and clamor of the outside world.

He was just about to go to sleep when his phone rang.

Qin Zheng's gaze fell on the screen.

There were no notes on the screen, only a neat five-digit unknown number.

It seemed like an official account, he guessed.

A barely perceptible hint of hesitation flashed across Qin Zheng's eyes. After a brief pause, he lightly tapped his fingertip and pressed the answer button.

The moment the call connected, a warm, steady, and clear male voice came from the other end of the receiver, speaking politely and respectfully.

"Hello, are you Mr. Qin Zheng?"

"Yes, that's me. And you are?" Qin Zheng asked calmly and unhurriedly.

"Hello Mr. Qin, I am Lu Zhou, the chairman of the Central Committee."

After introducing himself, Lu Zhou deliberately paused for a moment to give the other party time to process the information before speaking again and getting straight to the point.

"I apologize for disturbing you so late at night. I hope Mr. Qin will forgive me. I am calling to ask if you are free tomorrow to come to the central office? I will arrange a private car to pick you up."

Go to the central government? Does this mean the higher-ups want to see him?

Qin Zheng's pupils dilated slightly, his blood and qi surged, and even his breathing became rapid.

It seems that the higher-ups have already completed the authentication of the dragon-shaped jade pendant, confirmed the Qin family's lineage, and want to meet him, a descendant of the First Empress.

He understood perfectly well that at this level of summons, there was never a refusal, only an acceptance.

Even if he's busy tomorrow, he'll have to cancel his appointment and be there on time.

Qin Zheng's mind was churning with thoughts, but he showed no emotion on his face.

Qin Zheng quickly composed himself, his expression calm and collected, and replied in a gentle tone:

"Okay, then I'll trouble Mr. Lu to pick me up and drop me off."

He paused slightly, then followed up with a crucial question.

"I wonder if I can attend the appointment alone tomorrow, or if I can bring someone with me?"

Qin Zheng planned to take Qin Zihao along to broaden his horizons.

Qin Zihao is the designated next head of the Qin family and the junior he values ​​and nurtures the most.

This summons from the central government is of extraordinary significance. Even well-known tycoons in the industry rarely receive such an honor in their lifetime. This is an excellent opportunity for the Qin family to pave the way for future success.

He had to bring his grandson to the site in person to see the top-level structure, recognize the core connections, broaden his horizons and mind, and pave the way for the next generation of the Qin family.

Lu Zhou on the other end of the phone didn't hesitate on this issue and replied directly.

"Mr. Qin may come alone or with one person."

"Okay, I understand." Qin Zheng nodded slightly, completely understanding.

"Then we will not disturb Mr. Qin's rest any longer. A special car will be waiting for you at the door early tomorrow morning. See you at the central headquarters."

Lu Zhou spoke politely, and then hung up the phone cleanly and decisively without any further pleasantries.

The receiver went dead. Qin Zheng slowly put down his phone, looked up at the dazzling night view outside the window, and felt his blood surging violently in his chest.

Even after learning about the terrifying power of the four top families—Wang, Bai, Li, and Xie—he remained calm and composed.

But now, facing the central government's summons, he could not remain completely calm.

This means that the Qin family has officially caught the eye of the top figures in the Dragon Kingdom, and there's no guarantee that they might even get to meet the most important ones.

He had already foreseen today's situation the moment he decisively transferred out one hundred trillion yuan of regulatory margin.

Therefore, although he was moved, he would never lose his composure or panic.

In just a few breaths, Qin Zheng completely calmed down, his fingertips moved slightly, he opened WeChat and sent a message to his eldest grandson Qin Zihao, who was far away at Longhu Manor in Jiangnan.

You must arrive in Beijing before 8:00 AM tomorrow. Grandpa is taking you to see someone.

...

Thousands of miles away, in Jiangnan Province, at Longhu Manor.

The night was quiet, the manor was elegantly lit, and the courtyard was serene.

When Qin Zihao saw the message from his grandfather Qin Zheng, his gaze narrowed slightly. He didn't ask any further questions, but he had already roughly guessed the reason.

Grandpa went to Beijing to reconnect with the Qin family's old connections, and now he's finally going to let him access the Qin family's hidden top-level network of connections.

He replied without the slightest hesitation.

Okay, Grandpa, I'll arrive on time!

He then sent a message to Tang Xiaorou, the beautiful secretary in charge of daily arrangements.

Arrange a flight; the plane needs to be in Beijing by 8 AM tomorrow.

……

At the same time, the Wang, Bai, Li, and Xie families all received calls from Lu Zhou almost simultaneously.

The Wang, Bai, and Li families, having anticipated this, were not too shocked.

As a long-established, top-tier family rooted in the elite, they are already used to this kind of spectacle.

Whenever the Dragon Kingdom launches a top-level strategy, a major foreign cooperation, or a trillion-dollar investment project, the central government routinely summons the heads of the three families to discuss cooperation.

Such summons from the central government are commonplace for them and nothing to be surprised about.

However, the Xie family, being the last to join the top circle, caused a great shock among the higher-ups.

From the former head of the family to the core executives and direct descendants, everyone was overjoyed and excited when they learned that it was Lu Zhou who had called in person.

This phone call was incredibly important and significant!

This is not only a recognition of the Xie family's strength by the central government, but also an official recognition of the Xie family's top-level status!

Although it was previously acknowledged within the industry that the Xie family had entered the ranks of top-tier families, it was ultimately just a consensus within that circle.

Now that the higher-ups have personally summoned them, it is the most authoritative and hardcore official endorsement, completely solidifying the Xie family's position in the top circle!

The study in the main courtyard of the Xie family's old residence was brightly lit.

The white-haired old man Xie sat in the main seat, looking at Xie Mingqiu, the most outstanding direct descendant of the family, with eyes full of satisfaction and expectations, and solemnly gave him his instructions.

"Mingqiu, you are the most talented, visionary, and capable heir in the Xie family for generations. The future rise and fall of the Xie family rests entirely on your shoulders."

"Tomorrow, when you enter the central council to discuss matters, remember to listen more and speak less. You only need to follow the Wang family's stance and express your opinion. Do not speak or act rashly without authorization. Stay calm and make the most of this god-given opportunity!"

Xie Mingqiu stood tall and exuded an extraordinary aura. Upon hearing this, he nodded heavily, his eyes sharp and resolute, radiating confidence.

"Grandpa, your grandson knows what he's doing!"

He looked up at the dazzling night sky of Beijing outside the window, his tone bold and his words resounding.

"Rest assured, I will seize this opportunity presented by the central government's summons, ride the wave of opportunity, and propel the Xie family to new heights!"

"With the summons from above and the subsequent annihilation of the Qin family, who in the industry wouldn't fear the power of the Xie family? The Xie family's future is bright!"

"Excellent!" Old Master Xie nodded repeatedly as he looked at his grandson's imposing presence.

"Truly a prodigy of the Xie family!"
