Chapter 521: Scary ProjectTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Hong Dali had already given the instructions, what came next was the hot-handed transportation work.
This was really a transportation job, not easy at all. The entire Beijin city saw countless trucks of reinforced concrete and other materials driving in the direction of Beijin Port. The helicopters in the sky rang loudly. In the afternoon, the Big Turtle was also escorted over in a large group…
Great migration. Almost all the important people from the properties under Hong Dali came—anyway, the aircraft carrier was s.p.a.cious enough. Another eighty or a hundred people wouldn"t make much of a difference…
On the third day after Hong Dali boarded the aircraft carrier, at 5:58 in the afternoon, everyone had arrived at the aircraft carrier. The initial materials were all transported. As Hong Dali stood at the bow of the aircraft carrier, everyone stood behind him like a bunch of people following the leader. Hong Dali pointed his finger at the sea ahead and said excitedly, “Let"s go toward the great ONE PICE. Charge!”
The group of people laughed and copied Hong Dali. “Charge!”
And so, the little prodigal left Beijin and took a big step towards the huge world stage.
Shanghai Tianhai, in s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma"s secret apartment.
After a period of self-cultivation, s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma"s health had more or less recovered. He looked much better than before.
In the battle with Hong Dali with Spiritual Sword, s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma was badly hurt. But it was clear he learned from his mistakes. Since he had failed once, what he learned was to pay more attention to Hong Dali"s moves—he shall not make the same mistake twice.
“Mr. s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+, everything has been prepared.” Qian Youjin"s father, Qian Guangzhao, sat on the sofa. He sipped his tea as he asked, “When are we taking action? To be honest, I"m getting a little impatient.”
“The lack of forbearance in small matters will upset great plans.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma closed his eyes and slowly said, “This time, we have to make sure we are fully prepared before we take any action. It must be an instant kill, we must not give Hong Weiguo any opportunity to counterattack.”
“At least three-quarters of the members of the Chamber of Commerce have agreed to impeach Hong Weiguo.” Qian Guangzhao rubbed his chin and said slowly, “And three people in the five oligarchs have clearly expressed their support for us, the other two are neutral.” Saying that, Qian Guangzhao smiled. “To be honest, Toyoda Conglomerate"s influence is really amazing. I"m envious of it.”
To be able to draw so many people to their side, Toyoda Conglomerate had put a considerable amount of effort.
Actually, with Toyoda Conglomerate"s a.s.sets of nearly 200 billion US dollars, there was no need to be bothered by the Hong Family. After all, the Hong Family might have quite a lot of money and established relations.h.i.+ps, but they were not comparable to the world-cla.s.s family of the Toyoda Conglomerate.
The real problem lied on Hong Dali. This prodigal"s luck was so good it was alarming. With s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma"s strategizing, going against Hong Dali"s undefeatable luck, he could only bow his head.
It was no wonder Toyoda Conglomerate was willing to pay such a big price to get rid of the Hong Family.
It wasn"t an overstatement to say that for the Resource Chamber of Commerce meeting this time, Toyoda Conglomerate had spent up to ten billion US dollars bribing members and executives.
It seemed a lot, but s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma thought it was absolutely worth it!
The most crucial point was the hatred between the Hong Family and Toyoda Conglomerate. Once the Hong family rose, the war between the two sides was inevitable. When the Hong Family fell, the biggest culprit was Toyoda Conglomerate. In that war, eight or nine out of ten of the Hong Family"s elites were lost. Otherwise, as one of the two founding fathers, it was impossible that Hong Family was only just an ordinary business family.
“Money is needed to pave the way. In this world, money is one of the most useful means of communication.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma said slowly, “Facing Hong Dali, we cannot afford to be careless or make any mistakes. He should have boarded the two aircraft carriers he bought and gone to sea, right? Once he travels out further and his contact with the mainland is cut, we will take action.”
“Well, the things that this prodigal dabbles with are indeed scary.” Qian Guangzhao nodded his head. “The storm on the Mechanical Man still remains. I was not able to find out more from the military side regarding Hong Dali, their att.i.tude is very ****.”
“Don"t worry about that, my Jaban empire and Merika have already agreed on the joint military exercise to put the pressure on Heavenly State. In the short term, the Heavenly State"s military won"t have much time to bother about Hong Dali.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma calmly said, “With the five magnates sitting at the Resource Chamber of Commerce meeting, the normal process of the impeachment program, Heavenly State won"t be able to have any say in it.”
“That"s without a doubt. I will not do something which I don"t have confidence will succeed.” Qian Guangzhao smiled. “That"s all, then, Mr. s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+. Everything has been prepared, we will wait for your cue. I"ll leave first.”
“Okay, no problem.”
After Qian Guangzhao left, s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma was alone in the room. He then said slowly, “Mr. Wada, what do you think about what Qian Guangzhao said earlier?”
“Simple.” The chief legal counsel of Toyoda Conglomerate, Wada Nakamasa, appeared from a hidden door and said, “I will not fully trust anyone who is not a citizen of our glorious Jaban State. With regard to impeaching Hong Weiguo, the coast may be clear now, but we cannot fully trust the Qian Family. We need to be prepared.”
“I think the same way.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma nodded. “People from the Heavenly State are insidious and deceitful. According to our plan, our attack has to be accurate and deadly. Even if something happens then, it will be too late for them to turn back on their words.”
“Just like that.” Wada Nakamasa smiled. “Once we take action, we can"t let them have time to react.”
“Well, what"s the reaction of Heavenly State"s military? Qian Guangzhao, the fool, couldn"t find any news.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma sipped his tea. “The people that Toyoda Conglomerate arranged, did they share any latest news? Are news regarding Hong Dali still being blocked?”
s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma couldn"t say much when Qian Guangzhao was there. After much consideration, he called Toyoda Conglomerate"s most trusted chief legal counsel, Wada Nakamasa, over. As the chief legal counsel, Wada Nakamasa thought things very thoroughly. Discussions with him were completely different.
“Order of blockade.” Wada Nakamasa crossed his legs and said, “There is no news of anything related to Hong Dali at all. Hong Dali has indeed got in touch with Heavenly State"s higher-ups in the military, and they take him very seriously! But there"s no way for us to get detailed news on it.”
“It"s good they take him seriously. The rest doesn"t matter.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma said, “The more he is being taken seriously in Heavenly State, the easier for us to carry out our plan. As for the deals between them, it"s not important.”
Wada Nakamasa had been in discussions with s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma. Hence, he understood what he meant. “Hehe, most of the arrangements are in place. We are just waiting for Hong Dali to go out to the sea and cut communication with the mainland. We will strike the Hong Family like thunder then. The higher-ups in Heavenly State is bound to get upset. A slight move in one part will affect the situation as a whole. The members of the Resource Chamber of Commerce won"t have an easy time.”
“En, if that"s not the case, the money we invested in this will be meaningless. Hahahaha.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma laughed out loud. “Hong Dali is not bad as a fuse.”
The truth was finally revealed. The real reason why s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma supported Qian Guangzhao fully was actually to attack the entire Resource Chamber of Commerce!
“Of course, as long as we strike Hong Weiguo like thunder, with Hong Dali"s character, he is sure to fight back.” Wada Nakamasa smiled. “Qian Guangzhao is sure to be his first target. All the members involved in the impeachment will be at risk, too. If we sink the aircraft carrier that Hong Dali is on and get rid of Hong Weiguo, Hong Dali is bound to go crazy. This prodigal is known to take good care of his family and friends. Once Hong Weiguo dies, Hong Dali, possessing the Mechanical Holy Garment, will go on a killing spree and blow up the Door to Heaven. The entire Heavenly State will be in a mess. When that happens, hehe…”
Toyoda Conglomerate"s s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma"s schemes had finally surfaced.
From the start, their target was not just the impeachment of Hong Weiguo!
The consultant of Toyoda Conglomerate had resorted to everything conceivable, schemed, conspired, and even took the human character into consideration.
If everything went according to plan, there was a high chance that s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma and Wada Nakamasa would succeed. Although it would be hard to lay a finger on Hong Dali since he possessed the Mechanical Holy Garment, what about his family?
Hong Dali could turn over the entire organization when his men were wronged. If his father Hong Weiguo or his mother Lan Ruoxi was a.s.sa.s.sinated… s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma and Wada Nakamasa were certain that this prodigal would turn the entire Heavenly State upside down!
His ability was already scary, with the help of Heavenly State"s military…
The five magnates and the members would not have an easy time. Once the Door to Heaven fell, Heavenly State"s businesses would fall for at least 30 years! Once the veteran giants fell, and the various merchants in Heavenly State started fighting each other, everything would become a mess. The businesses represented by Toyoda Conglomerate would take advantage of the situation…
“Actually, when we think from a different view, we will gain much more.” s.h.i.+rois.h.i.+ Kazuma smiled faintly and raised his teacup. “For our future success, cheers.”
“Cheers.”
Both of them had laid out their plans carefully, but at the Door to Heaven…
