Chapter 520 Situation
After Chen Chuan and Yan Yi finished their conversation, he walked aside, picked up the box that Chen Bitong had given him from the table, opened it and took a look.
There is a fist-sized stone placed inside. Its surface looks uneven and seems inconspicuous.
He reached out and touched it, only to find that it was delicate, smooth, and warm. After a short while of contact, he felt extremely relaxed, as if he had unloaded a heavy burden and was now free to go into battle.
Just the contact brings a lot of benefits. It can be imagined that this thing does have a good effect of invigorating the spirit and is very helpful to oneself.
But then he thought, judging from what Teacher Xue told him, even if Chen Bitong's spirit was almost perfect, it was not really perfect. So, was it really true that this person could not use it, or was it for some other reason?
After thinking for a while, he put the things back, then went to the training room, took out a tube of special medicine, sat down, and took it with his head tilted back.
As the medicinal power seeped in and spread, the alienated tissues throughout his body became active. This time, he did not use his second self to shield himself, and countless noises and external disturbances were transmitted through it.
However, after embarking on the path of spiritual power cultivation, even if he did not use his second self, he could still easily keep his mind and not be disturbed by these abnormalities.
At this moment, he looked up and saw a crack above him. The crack was like an open eye, and was slowly expanding. At the same time, there seemed to be a black, fluorescent sticky substance seeping out from the edge and sinking into this world bit by bit.
At the same time, it can be seen that there seems to be a thin cocoon-like shell covering the top of the central city. When those things fall on it, they will be blocked. However, some places seem to have been severely infected, the color has become dark and turbid, and it seems as if they have been penetrated.
But not long after, it would be absorbed by some force and slowly return to its original state. However, he also found that the force seemed to be somewhat unstable, sometimes strong, sometimes weak.
This is most likely the protection formed by the mother shrimp. This situation occurs because the mother shrimp is about to enter the division period.
From this perspective, the situation will definitely become more serious when the damselflies actually start to divide and reproduce. Teacher Xue said that he can judge the time period, so this should be it.
If he can make this judgment, then others can also make it. At that time, as Teacher Xue said, many situations may really arise.
We'll solve it when the time comes.
He didn't think too much about it, but focused on absorbing the medicinal power.
It was not until the evening that he finished his meditation.
He got up, washed, changed his clothes, said something to Yan Yi, declined the other party's request to send a car, then went downstairs and drove out by himself.
More than half an hour later, the car slowly entered the company square at the fusion boundary.
When Chen Chuan walked out of the car and headed towards the gate, the security guards on both sides stopped and saluted.
Yan Yi was already waiting for him at the entrance of the hall. Seeing him coming, he bowed and led the way. The two of them took the elevator to the president's office on the top floor of the building. Meng Shu was waiting there wearing a company president's uniform with a fusion border.
Chen Chuan greeted her and looked behind her. There, a woman with delicate features, gentleness and tranquility was standing there, smiling at him.
He nodded slightly. This was Li Ying, the company's active consciousness. This was the second time he saw her, including the last time he escorted Meng Shu back to the company.
After the greetings, everyone sat down.
Yan Yi said, "Mr. Chen, the municipal government sent a letter today informing us that the slugs are about to enter their breeding season and that we need our company to provide a certain amount of security resources to cooperate with the government and participate in the defense of the central city."
She clicked on the lower realm certificate and handed over a document: "We have checked the company's records. We cooperated with the government once fifteen years ago, but this time, it may be a little different.
Since there may be a breach in the World Ring, judging by the situation in Central City, the real situation may be even more serious. Our company was also deeply affected not long ago, so we would like to hear your opinion, Mr. Chen, on what measures should we take this time? "
Chen Chuan knew that because the Fusion Boundary Company had been invaded by the opposite party before, it might be the focus of attention.
He said: "My opinion is that because there have been attachments from the opposite side in the past, the company should deploy as many security forces as possible to cooperate with the government.
The company doesn't need to worry too much, because at present, there is no mutual involvement between the opponents. Even if other opponents arrive this time, the company will not attract their attention."
He said silently in his heart, because there may be more noteworthy targets here."
He looked at Meng Shu again and offered a suggestion: "I suggest that the company's strength be reduced. Meng Shu, try not to leave the company during this period of time."
Meng Shu nodded slightly, agreeing with Li Ying's judgment. She said, "Then from today on, I will stay in the company and not go back until this period of time is over."
Chen Chuan said seriously, "If there's anything, please contact me. I'll definitely come as soon as I can."
At the same time, inside the Ferris Wheel Company, security director Guan Shangjing was looking at the report with a frown.
He had originally drawn up a series of plans. As long as the leader of the Xiang Gang died, the Xiang Gang would fall into internal strife and the two factions would fight each other. Then Tu Liu would lead his men to attack the Swordfish Gang and kill most of the backbone members. The Swordfish Gang would then dominate the entire Yinglu District.
The severely damaged Elephant Gang was unable to protect Deng Xin, so they just got rid of her, killing two birds with one stone.
But the Elephant Gang actually quickly dealt with Tu Liu, pushed Tu Nai to be the new gang leader, and even swallowed their anger. The Swordfish Gang's preparations were in vain.
Judging from the information that was passed on, the target of the Processing Bureau intervened in this matter, which led to its failure. Even Deng Xin was sent to the Processing Bureau, which made whatever he did afterwards meaningless.
He threw the report on the desk, crossed his fingers, and looked deep in the eyes.
"It seems that we have to wait until that day to settle the accounts..."
He looked up at the light screen on the side. On the left side, there were columns of pending items, while on the right side, it showed that the directors were in an internal meeting that had lasted for five hours.
This is the fourth board meeting this month. The main purpose is to debate the direction of the company in the next stage. However, time does not allow it to be delayed any further, so there should be a result this time.
Just as I was thinking about it, the meeting time count above had stopped, which meant that the meeting should have ended.
At this time, another gentle and friendly female voice came from the world: "Manager Guan Shang, Director Yingwei wants you to go to the Jiajian Feiguan. There is a company task that needs to be reported to Manager Guan Shang."
Guan Shangjing stood up from his seat, walked out of the office, and entered the dedicated elevator opposite. The words on it flashed until the word "A" was displayed on the top. Then the elevator door opened to both sides, revealing a tall and wide flower garden.
Two deep red crimson trees in the room come into view, with rows of golden fluorescent grass lanterns hanging above them and a path paved with white pebbles at the feet.
He took off his shoes, stepped on it, and slowly walked around the screen. He saw a tall and fat old man, about fifty or sixty years old, with a serious face, sitting upright on the couch.
He wore a loose silk traditional costume with a profound foreign style, his hair was tied up in an old-fashioned braid, and his face had two symmetrical lines. On the knife rack not far from his hand, there were two exquisite knives, one long and one short, with a slight curve.
He walked up to the old man and bowed, "Director Eagle Tail."
Director Yingwei said: "The board of directors has made a final decision to implement the 'Spring Formation Plan'."
Guan Shangjing raised his head and asked, "Has the company made up its mind?"
"The consortium has been in the company for over a hundred days, but they haven't given a clear response to our investigation yet, not even a conclusion on the progress. Their intentions are clear." Director Yingwei looked at Guan Shangjing, "They're waiting for us to make a decision that aligns with their wishes."
Guan Shangjing slowly stood up and said in a deep voice, "It seems that what they need is that thing. They have a huge appetite. Director Yingwei, if we do this, then we, Ferris Wheel, will bear the risk.
He looked across at the other side. "If we can't get an accurate promise, do we really have to follow their will?"
"We have no way out in the current situation."
Director Yingwei said in a deep voice.
"Canglong Company and Ocean Development Group have recently taken advantage of our concentration of forces in Central City to instigate conflicts between our company and various foreign countries. Many countries are now unable to withstand the pressure and are beginning to waver, significantly impacting our business."
As he spoke, Guan Shangjing saw on the light screen behind him that many red dot warning signs appeared at the overseas company's bases on various islands.
“The decision-making group has analyzed that the moment we decide to join the consortium, this situation will not stop and will continue like this.
Once we embark on this path, there's no turning back. Success is the only option, not failure! Director Guan Shang, I ask you to be resolute in your resolve!"
Guan Shangjing bowed solemnly: "Yes, I understand!"
Director Yingwei hummed heavily. "Because we are being closely watched by all sides of Central City, we can't use the company's personnel and resources. I asked you to recruit some time ago. How are the preparations going now?"
Guan Shangjing raised his head and said, "Bian Yue Yizhen from Langtao Hall and Ye Jianhong from Anyao Hall have both formally declined my invitation and probably won't be coming.
But Senior Brother Gong Ying has already accepted my invitation. He will come here to work for the company, and he will be accompanied by a large number of disciples recruited from Fenglin Pavilion."
Director Yingwei said, "I've heard of Gong Ying Changxiu, the senior disciple of Fenglin Pavilion, for a long time. The disciples of Fenglin Pavilion who lead him are more than enough. Very good, Director Guan Shang, I hope you can coordinate this matter!"
