One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

He shoved his phone into his pocket and snapped his fingers at the dumbfounded Zhang Chulan:

"It's done."

"Just wait, a luxury car will come to pick us up in a bit."

Zhang Chulan swallowed hard, looking at his second master with eyes full of awe:

"Master...the way you spoke to Chairman Zhao just now..."

"That's Chairman Zhao! The top executive at Nadutong! Are you really going to extort him like this?"

What does "extortion" mean?

Zhang Tianyi straightened his trench coat collar, looking righteous.

"This is called a reasonable business hospitality request."

"Besides..."

Zhang Tianyi patted Zhang Chulan on the shoulder and earnestly advised him:

"Grandson, you must remember this."

"In this world, the rules are made for the weak."

"As long as you're strong enough and shameless enough..."

"Then wherever you go, that's where the rules are!"

Chapter 55 Long time no see, Fatty Zhao!

Twenty minutes later.

VIP exit at Beijing Capital International Airport.

Three gleaming black Rolls-Royce Phantoms, so shiny they could almost blind anyone, were parked in a neat row like black knights.

Passersby turned to look, and even airport security guards were on hand to maintain order, fearing that someone might accidentally chip a piece of paint.

"Wow...this is impressive..."

Zhang Chulan pushed the pile of luggage, staring at the little golden statue on the front of the car, his mouth practically watering.

He'd been working at Dutong for so long, and this was the first time he'd ever seen anything like this.

In the past, when I went on business trips, the best I could manage was a small business car. This Rolls-Royce... I wonder if sitting in it will shorten my lifespan?

"What are you standing there for? Load it up!"

Wearing sunglasses, Zhang Tianyi casually handed the half-empty Evian mineral water bottle in his hand to the driver next to him, who was wearing white gloves and looked respectful, and then got into the first car with complete ease.

"Baby, come on up. There are stars on the roof of this car. They're pretty."

"Oh."

Feng Baobao chewed her gum and tossed the shovel that had been shipped over onto the expensive leather chair.

The driver's eyes twitched and his heart bled, but he dared not utter a sound.

"Master! What about me? What about me?"

Zhang Chulan pointed to the pile of luggage, looking expectant.

"you?"

Zhang Tianyi leaned out of the car window, pointed to the slightly older-looking Phantom at the back, and then pointed to the pile of luggage:

"Go to the car in the back and watch the luggage. Those are local specialties we brought back for others, so don't damage them."

"Also, I don't know that driver well, so don't let him sell us out."

Zhang Chulan: "..."

So, I'm just a bodyguard?

……

Bulgari Hotel.

When Zhang Tianyi and his entourage entered the room called the "Presidential Suite," which was actually large enough to play football in, they were stunned.

Even the well-informed (and self-important) Zhang Chulan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "He's never seen anything like this before!"

"Holy crap! These floor-to-ceiling windows! This view of the Forbidden City! This bathtub... it's bigger than my rented apartment!"

Zhang Chulan pounced on the huge leather sofa, rolled around on it, and looked completely blissful.

"Corruption! Utter corruption! Is this what the rich live like?!"

Feng Baobao immediately rushed to the welcome table, which was filled with exquisite desserts and expensive fruits.

"Is this... edible?"

She pointed to a gold leaf cake and asked.

Eat! Eat as much as you want!

Zhang Tianyi threw himself onto the soft, large bed and hummed comfortably twice:

"Put it on Fatty Zhao's tab! Don't try to save me any money!"

That night was like opening the door to a whole new world for these three country bumpkins who had just come down from Longhu Mountain.

Zhang Chulan was soaking in a jacuzzi, holding a glass of cola, and posting a boastful message on his WeChat Moments.

Feng Baobao sat amidst the pile of snacks, switching into hamster mode and munching on a whole plate of imported cherries worth thousands of yuan like sunflower seeds.

Zhang Tianyi, wearing a silk bathrobe, stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the brightly lit capital city.

He swirled a glass of red wine in his hand, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

"Beijing..."

"It's been over seventy years since I last saw it, and it's changed so much."

"but……"

He looked at the young face reflected in the glass, a playful smile playing on his lips:

"Some things haven't changed."

"For example, the smell of power is still so...inducing...to want to trample it underfoot."

……

The next morning.

Sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains.

The table was already laden with an extremely lavish breakfast, a fusion of Chinese and Western dishes, ranging from fermented mung bean juice and fried dough rings to caviar and foie gras.

"belch--"

Zhang Chulan let out a burp, patted his round belly, and looked completely satisfied.

"Master, what shall we do today? Stroll around the Forbidden City? Or go to Sanlitun to... cough cough, see the scenery?"

Zhang Tianyi slowly peeled a tea egg, saying without looking up:

"Play? Dream on."

"Take the baby and go do your business. Don't follow me around all day and interfere with my performance."

Zhang Chulan blinked twice, then suddenly realized:

"Master, are you... trying to get rid of us?"

"Where are you going? Is there any danger? Do you need me, your grandson, to be your bodyguard?"

"bodyguard?"

Zhang Tianyi scoffed, his gaze as if he were looking at an idiot.

"With your mediocre skills, you think you can be my bodyguard? I'll have to save you if anything happens."

He stood up, elegantly wiped his mouth with a napkin, then walked to the coat rack and picked up the black trench coat.

"I need to go to the headquarters of NaDuTong."

"Let's go and meet that fat Zhao."

"There are some old grievances, and some... issues that I'm more concerned about. I need to talk to that well-informed fat guy about them."

At this point, Zhang Tianyi's expression became slightly more serious:

"You can't get involved in this. You go and do your thing, and keep in touch."

"Remember, don't embarrass me. If anyone bullies you, just mention my name."

"What if I sign up and still get beaten up..."

Zhang Tianyi turned around and revealed a kind smile:

"Then you shouldn't come back. Just find a job in an electronics factory in Beijing."

Zhang Chulan shuddered and immediately stood at attention and saluted:

"Yes, sir! Mission accomplished! May you have a safe journey, my lord! May you be blessed, my lord!"

……

The headquarters building of Nadutong.

As the official governing body of the supernatural world, the security level here is extremely high.

The security guards standing at the entrance were all skilled martial artists with sharp eyes. Entering and exiting required swiping a card and even verifying the fluctuations of one's Qi.

However, the atmosphere here is particularly eerie today.

From the main entrance to the lobby, and then to the elevator, two rows of staff members in black suits stood ramrod straight, each with a tense expression and sweat on their foreheads, as if they were waiting for the arrival of a head of state.

"Here it comes! The Rolls-Royce is here!"

The security guard's trembling voice came through the walkie-talkie.

A black Rolls-Royce slowly pulled up in front of the building.
