There were a total of twenty-three bodyguards, five each for the three Li brothers and Xu Xiangqian, and the remaining three were given to Xu Xiangqian's family.

The two martial artists' bare-handed combat power was much higher than that of the others, so they were assigned to Li Xu and Xu Xiangqian.

Guns are rampant these days, and if you really encounter someone with a gun, it will be useless no matter how good you are at fighting with your bare hands. So Li Xu took out another sum of money to purchase weapons for the bodyguards.

After the story was told, everyone dispersed.

Li Chen and Li Ping went to recruit people together. They not only wanted to recruit bodyguards, but also wanted to hire a few chefs and cleaners for the house.

These people must also be strictly investigated.

Xu Xiangqian's family went to the shoe factory, while he and Li Xu went to the government to ask for money.

Seeing Li Xu and his companion surrounded by ten strong men, the government staff did not dare to greet them.

It was Xu Xiangqian who spoke first and asked if Qian Jin was busy.

The staff member replied and turned and ran away. A moment later he came back with the money.

When he saw Li Xu and the others, Qian Jin's face suddenly broke into a brilliant smile, and his pace unconsciously quickened.

The bodyguards were reminded and did not stop him.

Qian Jin bent his body slightly, stretched out his hands, grasped Xu Xiangqian's right hand, and shook it vigorously up and down, his tone appearing extremely excited, "Boss Xu, I've been looking forward to seeing you back for so long, and finally you've come back."

Xu Xiangqian was so embarrassed that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Director Qian, if you keep shaking my hand, it's going to break."

Qian Jin paused, then quickly released his hand, revealing an awkward yet polite smile. "I was so excited to see you, I couldn't control my strength for a moment. I'm really sorry."

"I'm not a big shot. Why are you so excited about seeing me?" Xu Xiangqian said with a smile.

"Boss Xu, you are the big shot." Qian Jin answered firmly and affirmatively.

After saying that, he shook hands with Li Xu and greeted him warmly.

Then he extended his hand and led everyone towards the reception room.

Leaving the bodyguards outside the door, Li Xu and the other two followed him in.

Qian Jin personally made a cup of tea for the two of them and brought it to them. Then he sat down next to Xu Xiangqian and began to play the victim. "Boss Xu, you don't know what I've been going through these days. Just because I don't know your identity, I get scolded by my boss every day. To be honest, I even want to resign."

Xu Xiangqian knew that what he said was impossible to happen, and he also knew why he said that, so he said angrily, "Director Qian, I haven't even finished my story yet, but you're already talking about it. You're too impatient."

Qian Jin saw that he was not really angry, so he smiled and said, "I thought it would be fine if I told you sooner or later. Since you don't want to listen now, I'll tell you later. You can tell me your story first."

Xu Xiangqian was speechless. After a long while, he slowly said, "Director Qian, when will the hotel design drawings be available?"

"next month."

“When will the car arrive?”

"Also next month."

"When next month?"

"The end of the month."

Xu Xiangqian frowned. It didn't matter if the drawings were slow, but it would be really frustrating if the car was slow. "Director Qian, is there any way to get the car here earlier?"

"no way."

"Even if you pay more?"

"no."

Xu Xiangqian felt a bit of a headache. Li Xu beside him interrupted and said, "Director Qian, didn't you say earlier that a Hong Kong businessman had ordered a car? When will their car arrive?"

Qian Jin understood his thoughts and immediately said, "Don't even think about it. Their cars have already been delivered."

Seeing that his plan had failed, Li Xu not only did not show disappointment, but laughed instead, "Director Qian, so we can only wait?"

Qian Jin felt uneasy at his laughter, but he still nodded and said, "That's right."

Hearing these two words, Li Xu smiled even more happily, "What if we don't want to wait?"

Qian Jin thought about it and said through gritted teeth, "I'll lend you my car for now."

Li Xu couldn't laugh anymore. He looked at Qian Jin in disbelief, "Director Qian, you really can't think of any other solution?"

"Huh?" Qian Jin was stunned. "Is there a solution to this problem?"

Li Xu: ...

I'm sorry, I wronged you.

It turns out that you didn't deliberately not mention it, but you just didn't think about it at all.

Li Xu didn't keep the secret any longer and said directly, "Director Qian, please help us get the approval document for the car import. We will go to Hong Kong to buy it ourselves."

These days, every imported vehicle requires special approval.

It's so difficult to get an approval document.

This is also the reason why Xu Xiangqian wanted to buy twenty cars but only bought ten, and he didn't say that they were imported from outside.

There are not enough cars now. As the number of bodyguards increases, the gap in cars will become larger and larger. However, the originally ordered cars will take at least a month to arrive. Li Xu can't wait that long and can only buy them from outside.

Qian Jin's expression of sudden realization faded, then he paused, then said, "I have to remind you that from the time I get the approval until you buy the car, it will take at least twenty days, and you may not be satisfied with the amount stated on the approval."

Li Xu smacked his lips. "My cousin invested 30 million Hong Kong dollars to build a hotel, and he doesn't even get any preferential treatment?"

"This is already a preferential treatment. Otherwise, no car would be approved."

Hearing him say that, Li Xu had no choice but to use his trump card. "Two days, tell your superiors that we need to see the approval document within two days. The quantity is ten. If it exceeds the time limit or the quantity is not enough, the $5 million we intended to donate will be gone, and there will be no more in the future."
