"Director Fan, hello, what can I do for you?" Ge Dongxu asked while walking towards his home.

"Sir, I have information about Jiuyang Chi Yan Fruit and the Ganlin Xuanyang Grass. The owner is a senior from the Chinese Qimen community in Indonesia. I only know him by face and don’t have a close relationship. I’ve already phoned him, but he’s not willing to part with them," Fan Hong replied.

"Then I’ll make a trip there myself," Ge Dongxu said, slightly startled by the news, and then he quickly decided without a second thought.

These two medicinal ingredients were crucial for the recovery of his senior brother’s legs, so naturally, Ge Dongxu cared a lot about them.

"The person’s cultivation is not much different from mine, and he has quite a reputation among the local Chinese. It would be best if you could go with me," said Fan Hong after hearing Ge Dongxu’s decision.

"This is my personal matter. I’m already very grateful that you helped me inquire about it. Since he is not willing to part with them, it’s natural that I should make the trip myself," Ge Dongxu said.

"Sir, you’re too kind. You are our bureau’s chief advisor and ought to receive this treatment. Besides, I owe you a great debt. I will have Xu Lei book your flight to the capital, and from there you will fly to Indonesia," Fan Hong said.

"Alright, I’m currently at my old home in Changxi County. I will hurry to Linzhou, and we can talk in detail after I arrive in the capital," Ge Dongxu finished speaking and hung up the phone.

By then, he had already reached home.

His parents had already gotten up and prepared breakfast. Seeing Ge Dongxu return, happy smiles appeared on their faces.

"I have some matters to attend to and will have to be away for a while," Ge Dongxu told his parents during breakfast.

"Heh, I told you a while ago to go busy yourself with your own affairs, but you insisted on sticking around at home. Now you can’t stand it anymore, can you? Go on, just be safe," Ge Shengming laughed and said.

"Dad, I am after all your son. How can you describe me as ’sticking around at home’?" Ge Dongxu said, unable to help but laugh and cry at the comment.

His parents knew that Ge Dongxu was a big boss, someone who handled important affairs. So, after the banquet that day, seeing Ge Dongxu spend all day at home helping them with chores such as serving tea and water, handling plates, and settling accounts, they felt really bad. Several times they told Ge Dongxu that he didn’t have to stay with them and should go take care of his own business; a phone call now and then and visiting once in a while would be fine.

However, Ge Dongxu always felt that after he went to the county city to study, the time he spent with his parents had decreased, and it would surely become even less once he moved to the provincial capital, so he wanted to spend more time at home during the summer vacation.

"Exactly, who else behaves like this as a father? Your son stays at home every day just to accompany you out of filial piety. Otherwise, who do you think would enjoy staying with a run-down rural family vacation home like this?" Xu Suya said, glaring as she spoke.

"Heh, I know, I was just joking!" Ge Shengming laughed.

"Of course, I know you’re joking, but you can’t joke about that! It’s so rare for our son to be willing to keep us company like this!" Xu Suya said.

"Alright, alright, I won’t make that kind of joke anymore," Ge Shengming said helplessly.

"Remember that, it’s not good to speak ill of your son in front of my mother," Ge Dongxu said boastfully.

"Off with you! Always trying to drive a wedge between your mother and me," Ge Shengming said, glaring.

"Alright then, I won’t disturb the two of you in your little world. I’m off to pack my things and get going," Ge Dongxu said as he got up from his seat.

Xu Suya also tried to get up and help pack when she saw this, but Ge Dongxu pushed her back into her seat, smiling as he said, "Mom, I’m all grown up now, I can pack by myself, and there isn’t much to pack anyway."

"Alright, Suya, just sit down, he has a lot of stuff that’s all over the place, we wouldn’t know how to pack it anyway," Ge Shengming said.

Thinking about it, Xu Suya realized it was true, her son was an extraordinary person, and aside from clothes and such, his suitcase was filled with all sorts of odd and peculiar things, so she really shouldn’t meddle with the packing and stopped insisting.

Ge Dongxu quickly finished packing his luggage and then left Ge Family Village.

Driving in the car, Ge Dongxu did not head to the provincial capital to look for Liu Jiayao, but went straight to the airport instead.

When he arrived at the airport, Xu Lei was already waiting for him at the entrance; upon seeing him, he hurriedly stepped forward to help with the luggage.

"No need to be polite, I can manage on my own," Ge Dongxu smiled and declined.

Xu Lei knew Ge Dongxu was a leader without pretense and also an extraordinary master, so he did not insist.

Accompanied by Xu Lei, a figure from the special department, Ge Dongxu entered the airplane through a special channel, avoiding a lot of hassle.

"I’ve just received a call from Director Fan, saying that the passport and everything else have been prepared, though the flight is tomorrow, so we have to wait until tomorrow to depart. The plane will first fly to Singapore, then to Medan’s Kualanamu International Airport in Indonesia," Xu Lei explained to Ge Dongxu while sitting on the plane.

"If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten that you need a passport to travel abroad," Ge Dongxu said, slightly embarrassed.

"We should have prepared all this for you in advance, but it was unexpected that you would need to travel abroad so soon, so we did not rush to arrange it for you beforehand," Xu Lei explained.

"It seems there are quite a few benefits to joining this department after all, as it saves a lot of trouble," Ge Dongxu laughed.

Hearing this, Xu Lei’s expression revealed a hint of awkwardness; he was one of the parties involved from Xiao Yuan Mountain and knew that Ge Dongxu was not really keen on joining his department and had joined under pressure.

"Don’t overthink it, I’m really just speaking from appreciation," Ge Dongxu said with a smile upon noticing Xu Lei’s slightly unnatural expression, then he asked, "By the way, did Director Fan give you any information about the owner?"

"He mentioned a few things, but we are not very clear on the details since the other party is Chinese from Indonesia and also a person from Qimen. You know, people from Qimen tend to be quite low-key and do not like others to inquire about them, even if they have any businesses in the secular world, they usually have others manage them," Xu Lei replied.

"I see, just give me a brief overview," Ge Dongxu nodded and said.

"This person’s name is Chen Jiateng, and he is the patriarch of the Medan’s influential Chen Family. The Chen Family was once affluent and prominent in Medan, but since the 1950s and 1960s, they have gradually kept a low profile. Chen Jiateng himself lives in seclusion on Samosir Island and basically stays out of the family business, so there is very little known about him personally. Director Fan has met him a few times at the Qimen communication meetings and has mentioned that this person’s strength should not be much different from his own," Xu Lei introduced.

"What is the Qimen communication meeting all about?" Ge Dongxu, seeing that Xu Lei had limited information about the owner, did not press further, but he was curious when Xu Lei mentioned the Qimen communication meeting.

"As the name suggests, the Qimen communication meeting is a grand assembly for exchanges among people of Qimen. The meetings are categorized by region, including ones specifically for Qimen from Huaxia Country, those for Southeast Asia, others for Asia or even at the world level, as well as those initiated by a certain local country or even a particular sect. There are also meetings based on the theme of the exchange, like gatherings of Feng Shui masters about Feng Shui, or those initiated by sorcerers about cursing magic, and so on. If you’re interested, I’ll notify you next time we have one of these meetings," Xu Lei explained.

"Sure, let me know next time, and I’ll join in if I’m interested," Ge Dongxu nodded and said.

As his cultivation grew higher and higher, Ge Dongxu didn’t mind meeting and learning about the people within the circle.
