After exiting the elevator, as they walked toward the hotel, still, no one spoke,
silence.
Nothing but silence.
Without knowing the outcome of the negotiation in that suite, who would dare to speak carelessly.
Most guests staying at the Peninsula Hotel were either rich or powerful, but upon seeing Cynthia's group, they instinctively stepped aside.
For a target that is untouchable, both humans and animals have a kind of keen intuition.
Tong Dan, just returning with her shopping, walked toward the elevator and happened to witness this scene. Like the people around, she involuntarily stopped in her tracks, her gaze following them.
The group walked out of the hotel with eyes straight ahead, disappearing from view as they received curious stares.
Tong Dan shook the bag, the look of amazement in her eyes had not yet faded. She turned her head, withdrew her gaze, and took the elevator upstairs.
"Have you ever thought about developing a career as a professional shopper? The prospects aren't bad."
Seeing her with bags in hand, Fang Qing teased.
It's hard to change one's nature.
Without a job, she still doesn't know how to curb her spending.
"These are all for my family. After losing my job, I must find a way to shut their mouths, otherwise, they could nag you to death. Oh, and some are for Uncle Fang and the others, you're such a remarkable daughter, unable to accompany them often, so it's up to me, your friend, to fulfill some filial duties."
Miss Tong was ready to return home; Tokyo was not a place she would have the opportunity to visit in the near future, nor did she wish to return.
Like Jiang Chen and Fang Qing, she too was a pride of Sha City.
"I thank you, but please don't speak recklessly in front of them."
Tong Dan feigned innocence, blinking, "What words would count as speaking recklessly? Explain it to me."
Fang Qing remained silent.
"Just right, I'll also take the opportunity to visit Jiang's former residence; it might become a tourist attraction in the future."
Fang Qing couldn't help but smile slightly, "Why don't you ask him for the keys and take a few photos inside."
"I suppose that's possible."
Tong Dan nodded with a chuckle, then shared, "Just now I saw an unbelievably beautiful Westerner downstairs, with silver hair, blue eyes, and perfect pale skin. My goodness, everyone in the lobby was stunned, like someone out of Ancient Greek mythology."
"At your age, still getting starstruck like a teenager."
"It's not a man, it's a woman, Qing Gege, I guarantee you've never seen a woman so beautiful."
Fang Qing neither confirmed nor denied.
Speaking of beauty, there's one upstairs.
The wonders of the Creator must have reached their pinnacle; when it comes to beauty, no one in the world could surpass her.
What was Duanmu, the man Qing Gege considers the pinnacle of human appearance, doing at this moment?
Eating sunflower seeds.
That's right.
Eating sunflower seeds.
The people of Shen Zhou are well-versed in the art of hospitality, not only preparing tea but also Jiang Boss just brought out a bag of sunflower seeds.
Five-spiced.
Such a reception is quite high-standard, but perhaps the guest did not understand Eastern customs, failing to appreciate Jiang Boss's enthusiasm and goodwill, ignoring the tea, and skipping the seeds.
Couldn't let them go to waste.
"Brother Chen."
"Sit."
Jiang Chen placed the sunflower seed shells on a paper towel, picked up the seed bag to pour some for Bai Zheli.
Bai Zheli could only use his hand to catch them.
"Brother Chen, has Feng Shi come to seek peace?"
"You saw it?"
Bai Zheli nodded.
"How do you know they came to seek peace and not to demonstrate?"
Jiang Chen cracked open the seeds as he spoke, smiling with a calm and leisurely demeanor as ever.
His manner naturally influenced Bai Zheli; perhaps that's the impact of a backbone. Looking at the seeds in his hand, Bai Zheli decided to join in, couldn't just keep holding them.
"No one comes to demonstrate with an invitation."
Indeed.
If it's a demonstration, proving one's strength over the other, theoretically, it should be waiting for the target to come sheepishly to negotiate.
Taking the initiative yourself, your confidence isn't as strong.
"You're right, but Feng Shi has a broad chest and can embrace diversity. It's not impossible they want to give us a chance."
"Brother Chen, for the sake of saving the Japanese, hundreds of billions of US dollars have already been thrown in. Even for Feng Shi, it's impossible to have ample reserve funds. Feng Shi is capital, not a charity, they wouldn't go all out just for the Japanese."
Hundreds of billions of US dollars.
Globally, for any institution, it's not a small sum.
Even for someone like Jiang, 'the chosen one.'
He's using shortcuts and still engaging in a back-and-forth battle, showing the opponent's terrifying strength.
Pressing Feng Shi relentlessly is certainly unrealistic; even if he were crazy enough to want to use all his ammunition in this currency war, he'd have to see if the opponent accepts the challenge.
If they do accept.
It certainly wouldn't be a one-on-one duel.
Ten trillion may shock the world, but if Western capital were to unite, Jiang Boss would have to weigh the situation.
After all, using shortcuts doesn't mean being invincible.
"Hmm, I think the same way. Feng Shi indeed approached us for peace talks. Capital monsters like Feng Shi have always used others' blood as sustenance, never sacrificing themselves to nourish others. Even if they have money, they wouldn't want to keep pouring it in."
If the pit could be clearly seen, then it's fine, at least providing a psychological estimate for how much is needed to fill it.
With 500 billion dollars nearly exhausting the funds, if another hundred or two hundred billion could suffice, they'd definitely try to find a way.
But if the pit has no discernible bottom, or it's unclear due to obstructions, then the concept changes entirely.
Men have three wallets.
It's true.
As for Jiang Boss's first wallet—how much money he specifically has in his pocket.
