Long Lin's bluntness caused the atmosphere to become awkward.
"I'm curious about one thing." Ten seconds later, Bai Changtian finally broke the silence.
"Please speak, albopictus."
"Last time, Vice President Long said that he wanted to join hands with the Wang and Bai Families to attack together, but now, he doesn't want to use this relationship of hers.
Long Lin said indifferently, "I have my own means, but I am definitely not using her feelings for me in exchange."
"Vice President Long is a gentleman, I am a commoner, I said the wrong thing." Bai Changtian lifted his coffee and said seriously, "I'll use coffee in place of wine and I'll give myself a cup."
"A gentleman isn't really that much, it's just that the way he treats the world is different."
Bai Changtian was really kind, allowing the atmosphere to return to normal.
After putting down the coffee cup, Bai Changtian took the initiative to ask, "So does that mean that Vice President Long has a way to convince Elder Wang to support Young Master Nie and me?"
"Does albopictus want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"The truth."
Long Lin stared at Bai Changtian, "The truth hurts."
"It's fine."
"To be honest, I don't really like politicians. albopictus is one of the few people that I admire, but because of your small-minded demeanor, a person like you will not show any mercy to your political enemies, but will instead sincerely do things that benefit the common people. Because you live and understand it better than those hypocrites."
"Although the words of the Vice President Long are ear-piercing, it is also true." Bai Changtian said calmly, "The education I had received since I was young was to compete for power, and that was why I was able to stand out in the Bai Family. I also understood one thing very early on, that the fake was a fake, that would never be real, and that there are only two ways to prevent others from getting a fatal weakness."
"Firstly, it's good to not do it. Secondly, it's good to not do it. Secondly, if we really do it, under the condition that both sides' strengths are equal, no one can turn it into a fake."
"However, if you don't do something, then you don't have any accomplishments. Eating until you die can't satisfy the albopictus's ambitions, right?"
"Yes, Vice President Long sees it very clearly."
Long Lin said indifferently, "In the official field, a face project can only pass, but in the battlefield, doing a face project is tantamount to seeking death. I am a soldier, a type of soldier who can fight to the death with people at any time.
"Vice President Long, what is your condition for persuading Elder Wang?"
"With the albopictus's connections, you should have heard about what happened today at the wine gathering."
Bai Changtian said straightforwardly, "The alliance of the five big island consortia to create the Six Heroes Group is not something that a mere Chief of Foreign Trade can decide. Furthermore, if there is any trouble, the five big consortia can easily find the embassy to help them settle it, that way, no one would dare to mess with them."
"I did not ask albopictus to stop the establishment of the Six Male Group."
Bai Changtian asked curiously, "Then, what does Vice President Long want?"
My request is simple. The albopictus has allowed them to intersect with the Wulong Group for a bit, and have not teamed up with any of the six strong groups at all, and that should not be a difficult matter for the albopictus, right? It's the same for the Nie clan, what do you think? "
Bai Changtian said meaningfully, "If the Vice President Long were to come, he would be giving up the name of Young Master Zhi."
"No, if I really did join the government, with my personality, I wouldn't even have a secondary job."
"I will arrange it as soon as possible." Bai Changtian lifted his coffee cup.
Nie Minghui took the initiative and said, "I hope for a successful cooperation."
"Happy cooperation."
Long Lin walked in big strides, and the private room fell into a short period of silence.
"Chang Tian, is he really worth us tying him up with?" Nie Minghui stirred his coffee and asked seriously.
"Li Qianqu was crippled, Li Mingquan was captured, Li Minghao suddenly died, Li Qianjiong became the Director in one day, and the Li Family stood tall for over fifty years without collapsing, yet in the recent short period of two months, all of these things have happened. Do you think the Li Family is really that unlucky?" Bai Changtian asked meaningfully.
"The Wang Clan..."
"The Wang family has never done anything to help. I am 100% sure of that. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here to talk about cooperation with them."
Nie Minghui asked in disbelief, "He was stripped of his status as a military veteran, how could he have that much power?"
"It's not energy, it's wrist." Bai Changtian turned his head to look out the window, and said thoughtfully, "There are people who are born rich, and there are also people who have risen to greatness in their generation. But there is one thing that has never changed. "
"Which one?"
"In this world of flowers, there has never been a person who has truly fallen into the hands of a mediocre person. Therefore, Liu Bei was able to rule the world by himself while Ah Dou's second generation was destroyed. With his abilities, it is not difficult for one man and one family."
Nie Minghui also looked out the window, deep in thought.
Long Lin did not care about the benefits that the Bai Family and Nie Family's business groups would bring to the Wulong Group. The most important thing was that the attitude of the merchants from the two families was equivalent to indirectly indicating the attitude of the Bai Family and Nie Family.
With Peppermint present, the royal family would certainly take the initiative to join them.
The attitudes of the three great political families, the Bai, the Wang, and the Nie family, who had risen to prominence as a single person, were enough to change the decision of many merchants.
If he could pull a side from the seven great families of politics, the Wulong Group's business would develop even more smoothly.
Ji Tian Xiong, Chen Gehong and the rest had already left, the scene at the ball turning lively.
Long Lin did not return to the scene of the party. Instead, he stayed quietly at the end of the aisle while seriously pondering over a very important question.
Peppermint had said that no one knew who she was, but that was clearly not the case.
Peppermint is now a multimillion-dollar, super-rich business that can easily be talked about.
It was true.
But in the government, it was common for people to commit crimes that they did not know of, not to mention the fact that there was a shadow cast by the sand, even calling a deer a horse.
If the Wang family could go easy on him, it wouldn't be a big deal. However, if anything happened, menthol might be the first target for someone else to attack.
It was necessary to prevent the future from happening.
Tie Qihe walked out of the hall with the phone and saw Long Lin quietly standing at the end of the aisle.
"Vice President Long sure hid his strength well." Tie Qihe immediately hung up the phone.
"Did I hide it well enough, or did your partner De Like hide it from you intentionally?"
"What do you mean?"
"Ai Lisi had once been poisoned by a parasite, and needed to endure through a difficult moment. Thus, Pang Te and his husband arranged a marriage proposal for her. Both De Like and I were candidates for marriage, and in the end, Ai Lisi chose to accept my proposal."
Tie Qihe's expression changed slightly, "And then?"
"In order to help Ai Lisi survive the most difficult period of her life, Count Pang Te prepared a simple wedding for us. Finally, we created a miracle, and Ai Lisi used her last breath of energy to endure the wedding, and defeated Death."
"So you're saying that Ai Lisi is your legal wife?"
"No, after Ai Lisi escaped from danger, I snuck back into my homeland. But now, she is one of my women.
Tie Qihe looked at Long Lin and said seriously, "Last question."
"Go ahead."
"Where did the mint come from?"
Long Lin said indifferently, "Ai Lisi lent it to her."
"The world's creditor truly lives up to his reputation." Tie Qihe sighed.
Long Lin said indifferently, "Director Tie should consider the following cooperation with Meyer. Meyer is one of the main competitors in the cauldron industry, Xi Wanting will definitely make use of Wulong Group's channel to forcefully attack the market in Meyer."
"So what? "Qian He and Ding Fan are competitors as well. They would also suffer the same blow from Ding Fan. In the end, it would still be a fight to the death."
"There's one other way."
Tie Qihe said resolutely, "Qian He is my life's work, I will definitely not sell him to the tripod industry."
"Then let's each rely on our own abilities."
