Similarly, there's absolutely no need for it.

Just a glance at the resume and photo might make three generations of familial background crystal clear. If an elder were looking at the resume, they might even discern the details of three future generations.

It can only be said that the Ether Path is perfect for behind-the-scenes development.

As Ye Chun said, the acquisition of such a large corporation can't be settled in a day or two. Even if they waited until the incident at the Coast was over to discuss it, it would be too late.

Unless there had already been plans and preparations made beforehand.

No, perhaps relevant plans had already been quietly prepared behind the scenes long before the Coast resumed operations.

At this moment, upon hearing this, Ji Jue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Now that Lv Yingyue is far away in Central City and Xu Chaoxian is still constantly battling illness, if the Tong family remains indifferent at this time, forget the Coast, even Cliff City might not be able to maintain its situation.

"So in the next few days, I'll trouble you, senior, to manage the factory's affairs according to the previous arrangements."

Ye Chun paused slightly upon hearing this. Quitting at this moment clearly didn't align with Ji Jue's character or how she understood him. So, other than that, there was only one possibility...

Ji Jue stared at the sunlight outside the hallway window for a long time before turning back with a smile:

"I plan to stir up a little commotion."

.

December 31st, the end of the year.

The almanac says: [Heavenly blessings, nothing to avoid]

If someone else had said this, Ji Jue might scoff at it as superstitious, but if the screen capture was sent by Tong Ting, Ji Jue decided to believe it somewhat.

Especially when he received the message just as he was stepping out of the hospital door...

I don't know what you're up to, and I don't know what you plan to do, but coincidentally, look, today is a good day!

Attached was a photo of several coins on the ground, showing heads and tails, seemingly a result of some divination, but Ji Jue couldn't make heads or tails of it.

However, Tong Ting seemed to have long been aware of Ji Jue's tragic literacy skills and included a final line: [Earth and Water Master, move cautiously and smoothly; in moments of confusion, go east, and you may find good fortune]

Ji Jue instantly became excited, replying: [Can you tell me this season's lottery numbers? Give me a hint!]

Tong Ting was silent for a long time and only sent back a knowingly smiling emoji.

There's a massive, inexhaustible special fund right under your nose, and you don't even bother to reach out and take it; Tong Shan controls God knows how many lucrative projects at the Security Bureau, and you don't even ask; there are so many patents under the Tide Sound Workshop, the Fluid Alchemy's results can be monetized in countless ways, and you don't disclose a single one; yet here you are asking me for the lottery numbers?

Little brother, is your behavior of begging a bit abstract?

Seeing no further reply from the other side, Ji Jue shrugged helplessly and put his phone back in his pocket.

He promptly set off in his small sports car.

That evening, the purchasing team for this 'Mega Mart Promotions and Discounts Sale' had already gathered outside a secluded, abandoned settlement in the wilderness beyond the city.

The old mining company sign was long rusted, swaying in the wind, making a sharp noise.

Twenty years ago, during the development of Nanling Mining, this place was one of the rare bustling spots in the wilderness with a flow of cars and crowds.

Sadly, due to its inconvenient location, during its booming phase, it first endured two natural disasters, followed by a great depression. After surveys found insufficient mineral reserves and no large-scale mining value, the Nanling Mining bubble burst overnight, leading to bankruptcy. The settlement turned into a ghost town, just as countless other abandoned settlements and ruins in the wilderness, indistinguishable.

Yet, unlike past desolation and decay, years later, the settlement has surprisingly welcomed new inhabitants.

Regrettably, those occupying it are the ferocious gangs and bandits roaming the wilderness.

And not long ago, the guests occupying the place just had a bit of an... well, minor dispute and conflict with Director Ji.

"Truly concealed,"

Ji Jue clicked his tongue in admiration. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he might not even have found the chance to retaliate.

Frankly speaking, this indeed is the best hiding method. Once a person enters the city, they leave countless traces. Up above is the Security Bureau, below is the Desert Market; there are enemies in both the black and white worlds. If you wish to avoid the Ether's surveillance and evade pursuit, then the best way is to find refuge in the wilderness.

Abandoned settlements and towns are countless, plus the many hidden places that remain unknown.

Alas, you can never guard against a turncoat...

Just like Yin Chaoyang, who swiftly switched sides at the speed of light after recognizing reality.

Lu Feng's meticulously prepared little tricks and tactics didn't even get the chance to be used, and with his first words, he asked, 'Where's the polygraph? Truth Serum will do!'

Spilling everything he knew and more about what he had done, what he hadn't done but knew about, and even what he hadn't done and didn't know but was possible.

By the time the Echo deliberately bypassed him and opted for action, he had already been prepared.

To avoid being silenced by his old company or being thrown out as cannon fodder, when he received wind from other sources, he didn't even bother to verify its authenticity and activated his escape plan that had been prepared for who knows how many years.

Anyway, he had enough money, had finished looting, and seized the opportunity to disappear, change his identity, and buy a ranch in the Thousand Islands. Wouldn't it be nice to live as a wealthy man?
