Ling Zhenfei said, "You don't need to worry about that. If you're interested, join the investment for fun; if not, then forget it."
Ma Long thought for a moment and said, "From what I understand, Moergawa isn't very stable and still follows a feudal system. Such a system has a lot of uncertainties.
It's like North Korea. That's why I don't invest there—because it's unstable. You might invest a lot, and then with a command from the Emperor, the place becomes theirs."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Your concerns are valid, but I just want to ask you if you're in or not."
Ma Long hesitated slightly and said, "This is a big deal. Let me think it over a bit."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Actually, I could find others to invest. I don't even need anyone's investment because investing a little bit is guaranteed profit."
Ma Long was somewhat surprised and said, "How can you be so confident? I really don't know where your confidence comes from. Is it just because we're Huaxia People, and their Emperor's ancestors are also Huaxia People?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "It seems Young Master Ma has been playing games too much lately and isn't keeping up with current affairs. Forget it, we'll talk about this some other day. I just mentioned it casually."
Ma Long was a bit hesitant, but still said, "Alright, since that's the case, I'll take my leave first. If anything comes up, I'll call you."
After saying that, Ma Long left and returned to his private room.
This private room was very luxurious. As soon as Ma Long walked in, his demeanor changed.
There was another person eating inside. After Ma Long came in, he said to a few people, "Stop eating, there's business to attend to."
Everyone listened and immediately put down their chopsticks and stood up.
"President Ma, what's the matter?"
"Yes, President Ma, do you have any orders?"
Ma Long said, "Gather all the information on Moergawa for me immediately. I want all the information, all of it."
"When do you need it, President Ma?" one of them asked.
"I need it right away, the sooner the better. If there's any important news, you can tell me now."
One of them said, "My cousin is in Moergawa now. I can call and ask about the situation."
Ma Long said, "Call, make the call now."
Ma Long handed his phone to the person, who picked it up and started dialing a number.
This was an international call, usually not a big deal, but luckily Ma Long's phone could handle it.
The call connected quickly, and a disgruntled voice came from the other end.
"Who is it? It's late at night, can't you sleep?"
"It's me, cousin; it's your cousin."
"Oh, cousin, what's going on this late? I'm sleeping."
"I'm calling you this late because there's an important matter. I'm asking, what's the situation in Moergawa now?"
The person said, "There's nothing much going on in Moergawa right now. It's good; they've just finished a war, so it's a period of peace."
"Is there any change compared to before?"
The person said, "What changes could there be? A new Emperor took the throne, the old Emperor stepped down, just like that."
Ma Long saw that he couldn't get any useful information from this person, so he directly said into the phone, "Is there anything related to us Huaxia People? Don't think with your mindset; we don't know your situation there.
You might think it's a small matter, but we might not know it, so tell me anything related to us."
The person thought for a moment and said, "The island I'm on has been renamed Feixue Island, and the Island Master is a Huaxia person whose name seems to have 'Fei' in it."
"Ling Zhenfei?" Ma Long probed.
"That's right, it's Ling Zhenfei. He's quite formidable now, the sworn brother of the new Emperor. He married the Emperor's sister, the Princess who saved the Emperor, and is about to become the Prince Consort, with fiefdom one of the three main islands of Moergawa. It's just too impressive."
Everyone was shocked by this information. Who could have thought? The news was simply astonishing, especially since Ma Long was aware of what was happening, even if others weren't.
No wonder Ling Zhenfei was so confident earlier. With such backing, of course, he'd be confident.
Now Ling Zhenfei is like royalty on that island, so of course, he can decide how to develop it. Fortunately, I didn't outright refuse him earlier, or the loss would have been significant.
Ma Long immediately ran out of his private room, but when he arrived at the previous place, Ling Zhenfei and Cao Xueyi had already left.
By this time, Ling Zhenfei and Cao Xueyi had already left the restaurant. That lunch was quite frustrating, and the only thing that made Ling Zhenfei happy was the matter with Ma Long.
Now his Feixue Island needs development, so finding a powerful investor is great. Being the son of the richest man, Ma Long is naturally rich.
That's why he decided to let bygones be bygones and mentioned this to Ma Long. He believed that once Ma Long got the news, the deal would be secure, so Ling Zhenfei felt a bit happy.
At this time, Ling Zhenfei and Cao Xueyi walked out the door of the restaurant, only to be surrounded by a group of people as soon as they stepped outside.
Ling Zhenfei saw that the leader was none other than Zheng Feng, also known as Bald.
He knew they'd want revenge, but he didn't expect they'd be so impatient to act as soon as they stepped out.
"What do you want to do?" Ling Zhenfei asked.
Zheng Feng chuckled at Ling Zhenfei and said, "What do you think? Weren't you quite arrogant earlier? Why are you scared now?"
Ling Zhenfei smiled at Zheng Feng and said, "What would I be scared of? I'm just worried for you, afraid you'll embarrass yourself in front of so many people."
Zheng Feng laughed heartily and said, "Kid, are you blind? Can't you see how many people I have now? Even if each one threw a punch, you couldn't handle it."
Ling Zhenfei said, "So you're planning to win with numbers?"
Zheng Feng said, "Kid, I won't bully you; let's have a one-on-one. If you lose, you leave Cao Xueyi."
Beside him, Cao Xueyi hurriedly said, "Zheng Feng, what does this have to do with me? Why drag me into this? I have nothing to do with you. Even if you win, so what? I won't be with you."
Zheng Feng laughed and said, "Cao Xueyi, we haven't just met today. Why speak so decisively? Your father hasn't said anything against us, has he?"
Cao Xueyi said, "Anyway, I don't like you. Whatever you do is useless."
Ling Zhenfei thought, what does Zheng Feng have to offer over me? He still wants to have a duel with me.
Ling Zhenfei said, "I don't know what you want to compete in. You said you'd win, so what if I win?"
Zheng Feng laughed loudly and said, "You think you'll win? If you win, I won't oppose you and Cao Xueyi being together."
Zheng Feng seemed very confident, though it wasn't clear what he was so confident about.
Ling Zhenfei listened and laughed, "Are you Cao Xueyi's dad or mom? Even her parents haven't opposed it, so what does your opposition have to do with me?"
