Chapter 298: I Want Out
"What's wrong, boss?" Jason Deng asked. It rarely happened, but he observed Zhang Qin Feng thinking quietly while having a meal together once a while.
From its look, the news playing on the TV is the culprit behind Zhang Qin Feng's silence. This made Jason Deng paid more attention to what was in the report right now.
It seems that what happened to the Oceana's Naval Forces a while back made them reconsidered their relationship with Marianna. Furthermore, once this piece of news was added with some unproven facts and rumors regarding Marianna's local, the meaning of the report changed.
The word "defeat" was replaced by "surprise attack" and "equipment miscalculation." Using their skills in playing the word game through international news broadcasting indirectly created some sort of misunderstanding about Marianna and its neighboring countries.
Even Dongcheng, Han Country, New Panem, and a few islands located in the same sea were affected.
And that was what they were trying to do. As the world's four superpowers that controlled the politics from behind the scene, these people believes that everything had to go according to their regulation and methods.
"These bastards… It never came across my mind that they can be shameless to this degree…" Jason Deng cursed, and he knew that this broadcast alone had made Marianna the enemy to the entire world.
Those that unaffected would be cautious at them. At the same time, those that used to be in an import-export relationship with Marianna will start to distance themselves. If this were to continue, it wouldn't take them too long to start feeling the pain of getting ostracized in everything.
"Boss?" Jason Deng turned his head back to where Zhang Qin Feng was and noticed that the metal knife in his hand was already bent to a point it no longer worth repairing. But the most surprising part here should be his hand, and there's not a hint of redness or wound on his fingers nor palm.
"Jason…" Zhang Qin Feng calmly called his name.
"Yes, Boss." Jason Deng immediately replied. He knew that what was going to happen next was going to be something surprising again.
"Give me your knife. I've break mine." Jason Deng almost fell down from his chair from listening to Zhang Qin Feng's sentence. He was all prepared for some complicated order, but Zhang Qin Feng was just asking for his knife instead.
"Here you go, boss." Jason Deng passes that knife to Zhang Qin Feng.
"Go and get the paperwork ready. The Wind Base Group has to expand our size. From construction, agriculture, trade, export, seafaring, and everything else, make sure the paperwork for a limited-fund company is ready."
"Also, we'll start our own communication and broadcasting station. Start employing some people to get things ready. There are too many things to do, so make sure you don't exhaust yourself tonight." Zhang Qin Feng said while eating the steak on his plate.
After finishing what he had, Zhang Qin Feng left the presidential palace silently and vanished into the darkness ten minutes later.
…
…
…
The situation in Marianna returned to their usual peace a few days later. Still, there's a hint of uneasiness lingering in the air. Throughout these few days, almost every piece of news was something related to New Panem, Marianna, and the issue with the crude oil trade.
If they were putting the political section aside, crude oil, excessive trade, and depletion of resources were the hottest topic. Some organizations even took this opportunity to try and misguide the public by creating street demonstrations and openly debating to counter the greedy companies from over excavating the resources.
These people have no idea that this was something done by the corporation in shadow to manipulates the market prices.
But nothing that happened here was affecting Zhang Qin Feng nor Marianna because Zhang Qin Feng is on his way to Han Country. This time, he's using the Jun Conglomerate's private jet, and a triple security check has been conducted even before they depart.
And the first thing after Zhang Qin Feng arrived at the Xiyang City wasn't to visit Jun Minji immediately but to look for Carla Yu.
Their meeting happened so suddenly that it gave Carla Yu no time to prepare herself at all. Furthermore, she was almost shocked to death when she found out that Zhang Qin Feng was still alive.
Lucky for her, Zhang Qin Feng's visit here was for a different reason.
"Are you the real deal?" Carla Yu asked.
"Yes. I am the real deal. I'm sure you know the reason I am here, correct?" Zhang Qin Feng asked Carla Yu as two men came forward and confiscated her mobile phone, laptop, and everything else. These two were the best men under Zhang Qin Feng's command.
After getting powered up by the enhanced medicine perfected by Valerian, their strength is nowhere lesser than Captain Hu's current level.
To have a few subordinates of this level means Zhang Qin Feng's private security is now on par with the level of Tianhe Special Squadron. If this fact was known to the others, such as Dongcheng and Han Country, they would choose to befriend Zhang Qin Feng using all means.
That's how attractive is the medicinal serum perfected by Valerian.
But of course, the medicinal serum was not the only thing that could create all these elite soldiers. Each country had its own secret and even more in the hand of the big four.
In fact, the medicinal serum's base serum actually came from Oceana Alliance, and this recipe was actually bought by the country using an enormous figure.
"Are… You here for things related with Howard?" Carla Yu asked. There's no point for her to hide hers or Howard's identity anymore because everything should have been exposed by now since Zhang Qin Feng is still alive.
"Not really… But I don't mind if you add them into the interest I'm trying to collect here." Zhang Qin Feng smiled.
"Listen here, Carla Yu. I want to cut out from the business we've invested in. But what I mean is not I'm leaving, but you. This is going to be the only chance I'm giving you, so try to appreciate it, will you?" Zhang Qin Feng said. There was a hint of ruthlessness in his expression as he said what was in his mind.
