Chapter 162 Xia Yue decides to fight against the royal family!

"I have analyzed the political situation in country A. The new emperor ascended the throne by launching a palace coup, and his position is not stable."

Therefore, he urgently needs to rely on huge profits to maintain his rule. Winning over the Bai family, the black market, and developing undersea oil are all means of maintaining stability.

"Currently, it seems that the value of this sea area lies more in oil development than in pearl farming. Even if they don't develop it, we can do it ourselves," Xia Yue said calmly.

"Do it yourself?" Upon hearing these words, Old Madam Feng's pupils dilated in shock.

This was something she never even dared to dream of.

Feng Yao's heart raced, and a burning light ignited in his eyes.

My sister's idea is too bold.

However, if it is actually implemented and succeeds, the Feng family will not only not fall, but will also rise to a higher level.

At that time, even the royal family will be wary!

However, it sounds simple, but it's actually quite difficult.

“Our Feng family has never done business in this area. The royal family is blocking us, and ordinary families dare not cooperate with us. The latest oil extraction technology is in the hands of the Qin family…” Feng Yao suddenly stopped speaking.

How could he forget that!

He remembered that in the information he found, Young Master Qin and his younger sister had been engaged.

However, for some unknown reason, the Qin family later broke off the engagement.

Feng Yao is a foreigner, and Qin Yeting deliberately used his connections to keep Xia Yue's marriage to him a secret.

Therefore, Feng Yao only knew a general idea.

Feng Yao boldly guessed, "Little sister, you wouldn't be thinking of cooperating with the Qin family, would you? Cough cough... But hasn't the Qin family already planned to cooperate with the royal family?"

"There are no permanent friends, only permanent interests. The relationship between the Qin family and the royal family is not as solid as it appears to outsiders."

On the contrary, the royal family had previously tried to monopolize the Qin family's technology, even sending assassins to kill Qin Yeting, forcing him into a marriage alliance, and doing many things he disliked.

"The royal family also contacted the Qin family? No wonder Young Master Qin and you... cough cough..." Feng Yao felt a little guilty when he mentioned this.

He didn't even know when his younger sister was rejected by the Qin family.

Even after finding out, I did nothing.

Over the years, the Feng family has never done anything for their younger sister.

But now that the Feng family is in trouble, many people are betraying them and taking advantage of their misfortune.

The younger sister was the first to stand up and help the Feng family.

Feng Yao had mixed feelings.

“Sister, I’m sorry, the Feng family owes you so much… cough cough, cough cough…” Feng Yao was emotional and started coughing again.

Xia Yue is not a saint. She still harbors a grudge about the Feng family taking her mother and brother away when she was young, leaving her without a complete family.

But back then, the Xia family was indeed not as powerful as the Feng family.

It's understandable that the Feng family didn't want their daughter to marry into the Xia family.

Well, what's past is past.

Xia Yue smiled slightly and said loudly, "The most important thing now is to rescue Mother first."

"So, should we go and discuss this with the Qin family next?"

"Yes, but before that, we need to do our homework." Xia Yue's expression became serious again.

Over the next few days, Xia Yue inquired about the news from various sources.

In the oil development cooperation between the Qin family and the royal family, the royal family holds a 70% share, while the Qin family holds a 30% share.

And this was the greatest benefit the Qin family had obtained after much effort.

Initially, the royal family only offered the Qin family 20% of the profits, which led to several months of haggling between the two sides.

Using this as a starting point, Xia Yue discussed the matter with Madam Feng, her brother, and some important members of the Feng family.

In the end, it was decided to give the Qin family 60% of the profits, which was twice as much as the benefits given to the Qin family by the royal family!

Then, another 10% will be allocated to invite professional companies in the oil industry, powerful financial groups, banks, and well-known families to invest and participate.

If we can make money together, and are all in the same boat, it's easier to cooperate.

The remaining 30% will then belong to the Feng family.

On the surface, it doesn't seem like you're making much money, but if everything goes smoothly, the profits will be ten times what you made selling pearls before!

After all, oil is a hard currency that the whole world needs.

After the plan was agreed upon, Xia Yue and her brother divided the work and worked together.

The older brother was in charge of contacting conglomerates and professional companies.

Xia Yue was in charge of the Qin family's side.

Xia Yue contacted Qin Yeting in the name of the Feng family and invited him to visit the Feng family.

Qin Yeting did not reply immediately after receiving the message.

He had been watching the Feng family's recent actions and knew what they were planning.

The cake was big and tempting, and he was indeed interested, but the risks involved were also great.

"Boss, the royal family has also sent an invitation, inviting you to go there today. It just so happens to coincide with the Feng family's schedule," Assistant Zhou announced loudly.

"The royal family has received the message and wants you to state your position: whether you choose the Feng family or them," Shang Zexi analyzed firmly.

Qin Yeting raised his eyes and asked in return, "If it were you, what would you choose?"

"I've always preferred stability. I think money is something you only need when you have enough. It's not worth offending the entire royal family for double the profit," Shang Zexi said honestly.

Qin Yeting turned to Assistant Zhou and said, "Go and tell the Feng family that I will be there this afternoon."

"Yes." Assistant Zhou received the order and immediately took action.

Shang Zexi's eyes widened, and he asked loudly, "Boss, didn't you hear what I just said?"

"It was precisely because I heard that I chose the Feng family. Your luck has always been bad. As long as you make the opposite choice, you're sure to be right," Qin Yeting replied calmly.

Shang Zexi was so angry he felt like vomiting blood.

That guy is such a scoundrel!

He decided to break off all contact with Qin Yeting for three minutes!

Shang Zexi left in a huff.

Qin Yeting watched Shang Zexi's retreating figure, his expression gradually turning serious.

He knew that offending the royal family for this benefit was really not worth it.

But since Xiaoyue'er chose to stand on the Feng family's side, he naturally followed her without hesitation.

Moreover, based on his understanding of the new emperor, he knew that the man was ruthless, only interested in monopolizing power, and had no regard for contracts or integrity.

After a few years, once the royal family has learned the core oil technology, the first thing they will do is kick him out of the game, leaving at most 10% of the profits to the Qin family.

They might not even give you a single penny.

By then, it will be too late for the Qin family to do anything.

Rather than waiting to be fleeced, it's better to take the initiative first.

An hour later.

Qin Yeting arrived at the Feng family's residence.

Coincidentally, the minister who had previously forced the Feng family to sign the agreement also arrived.

Moreover, they came uninvited.

It seems the royal family is truly in a hurry.

"Gentlemen, how have you been?" Xia Yue smiled and sat in the main seat, politely welcoming everyone.

The minister snorted coldly, then asked, "Why are you the one taking charge? Where is Madam Feng?"

“My grandmother is not feeling well,” Xia Yue replied casually.

The minister persisted, "That's still not your turn. For example, I think Second Master Feng is more suitable than you!"

Just as he finished speaking, Master Feng arrived at the scene!
