Upon hearing this, Wenlong's disdain deepened.

If it weren't for the fear that telling the truth would enrage Song Changhe, Wenlong would have spoken up long ago.

Are you pretending to be your mother?!

If you can handle it, Huo Zhaotang's whole family will go down to sell salted duck eggs.

"Mr. Song, if you have nothing else to say, let's call it a day!"

After saying that, without paying attention to Song Changhe's expression, he got up and prepared to see the guest out.

But at that moment,

The Wen family's butler suddenly walked in.

"Mr. Wen, the Prince of Wales has arrived with a man who calls himself Song Wen!"

Upon hearing this, Wenlong's gaze towards Song Changhe immediately changed.

"Mr. Song, you've placed a very large bet!"

Upon hearing this, Song Changhe immediately laughed and said...

"Everything that has happened on Hong Kong Island these past two days was not my doing, but the doing of my son, Ah Man!"

"As for why the Prince of Wales would travel all the way from John Bull to Hong Kong Island!"

"For just one thing!"

"Plant a time bomb in the north, and simultaneously sideline the port governor!"

Lei Wenlong doesn't know much about what was buried there.

But Man-lung is well aware of why the port governor was sidelined.

Gao Ren's counterfeit cigarettes and alcohol have seriously affected tax revenue!

After all, tobacco and alcohol are major sources of tax revenue in any place!

"Please invite the Prince of Wales and Young Master Song in!"

"Yes, Mr. Wen!"

A minute later, Wales, dressed in a bespoke dark suit, strode over.

The moment she saw Wenlong, she extended her hand to greet him.

"Mr. Wen, since we last met in London,"

"It's been more than two years since we last saw each other!"

"Mr. Wen, you won't be upset that I came to visit you today without prior notice!"

Seeing that the Prince of Wales was still as familiar as before, Wenlong smiled and said...

"How could this be!"

"It is truly a great honor that His Highness the Prince has deigned to be my guest,"

"A mountain is not sacred because of its height, but because of the immortals dwelling there; water is not sacred because of its depth, but because of the dragons residing within it!"

"His Highness the Prince personally came to visit me; that brings unparalleled good fortune to the Wen family!"

Wales laughed heartily at Wenlong's flattery and then began chatting with him casually.

After chatting for five or six minutes,

Wales then stated the purpose of his visit.

"Mr. Wen, we're all civilized people, so I won't keep you in suspense any longer,"

"I came all the way from New York City specifically to target that pawn we've placed on Hong Kong Island in the north!"

"Gao Ren!"

"Of course, you, Mr. Wen, will certainly receive plenty of benefits!"

"Recently, our Royal Family of John Bull acquired an offshore oil field in Malacia with reserves of 30 billion tons!"

"Our royal family is prepared to sell 40% of the shares to you, Mr. Wen, at cost price!"

After saying that, Wales snapped his fingers.

Immediately afterwards, the foreigner carrying a briefcase behind him took out a contract and handed it to Wenlong!

Looking at the contract in his hand, all he had to do was sign his name.

He only needs to spend HK$2 billion to acquire this 40% stake, and the return on that HK$2 billion for him will be at least tens of billions!

To be honest,

If it were a month ago, Wales had approached him with this contract to discuss cooperation.

Without saying a word, Wenlong immediately signed his name.

But now... he saw that Li Wenyao and Huo Zhaotang's entire family had died because they opposed Gao Ren.

He was scared!

When facing a madman like Gao Ren, the best outcome is always mutual destruction...

"Your Highness, compared to making money..."

"I care more about my family's lives now!"

"Gao Ren is a short, ugly man. Whenever he's at a disadvantage, he likes to send his gang of thugs to your house with guns and start shooting!"

"I dare not take the risk..."

After saying that, Wenlong returned the contract in his hand to Wales!

Wales stared at the returned contract; this was the first time he had ever seen these capitalists.

Because of fear of a person, he gave up the delicious meat that was right in front of him.

At this moment, Wales' curiosity about Gao Ren reached its peak.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Interesting! Interesting!"

"This is the first time I've ever been so curious about a short mule!"

After his laughter subsided, Wales' expression turned serious as he spoke.

"Mr. Wen, I understand your concerns!"

"So, to address your concerns,"

"Until I kill Gao Ren, I will stay at your residence with my delegation!"

Mr. Wen,

"Do you think Gao Ren would dare let his gang of thugs shoot me with guns?!"

If he wipes out his entire family, Gao Ren can simply find a few scapegoats to take the blame.

But what if a member of John Bull's royal family, the Prince of Wales, were shot?

Then let alone Gao Ren, a short mule, even Commander Xu, who supports Gao Ren in the north, might not be able to withstand this burden!

It's a gamble to get rich quick.

I'd better back down and let Gao Ren do whatever he wants with me from now on...

After much deliberation between these two options, Wenlong ultimately took the contract back.

"Your Highness, I have a few bottles of 1961 Lafite in my wine cellar; they taste quite good!"

"Perfect timing! Let's discuss the specifics of our collaboration over a drink!"

Upon hearing this, Wales immediately laughed and said...

"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Wen for a while..."

At the same time, on the other side, in Commander Xu's headquarters in the north,
