"Have these ten tons of gold just been sitting here all this time?"
"Isn't this a bit wasteful?"
Su Ningshuang looked at Ye Chen and said.
Looking at it this way, it is indeed very impressive.
But it would be a waste to just leave ten tons of gold here and let it gather dust.
After listening to Su Ningshuang's explanation, Ye Chen nodded, agreeing that it made some sense.
"We need to reconsider the use of this gold."
"And even if we take a step back and leave it here, it's fine. We can treat it as an investment. Investing in gold is definitely not a problem."
Ye Chen hasn't decided what to do with the gold yet.
If there's really no other way, we can simply have Ye Chen's bank send someone over to transport the gold into his bank.
Don't forget, Ye Chen previously obtained a private bank in Europe from the game.
With this matter settled, Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang went out to continue their vacation in Dubai.
That evening, shortly after Ye Chen and his group returned to the villa, the doorbell rang.
Ye Chen went to speak and saw three or four people standing at the door, led by a Middle Eastern father and daughter.
The father, who was in his fifties, wore gold-rimmed glasses and had a commanding presence. He looked like a powerful figure from the Middle East.
The daughter, on the other hand, was around twenty years old, very beautiful, and a typical Middle Eastern beauty.
Who are you?
Ye Chen spoke.
"Ye Chen, Mr. Ye, right?"
“We are from the Mansour family, and this is my youngest daughter.”
The middle-aged man explained.
The Mansour family?
A thought flashed through Ye Chen's mind, and he vaguely remembered it.
When I was chatting with Caroline before, she mentioned that among the major families in the Middle East that were eyeing the new oil field in her hands was the Mansour family.
In an instant, Ye Chen understood why the father and daughter had come here.
Their goals are the same as those of the Ibrahim family.
"We heard that Mr. Ye has come to Dubai, so we came to pay him a special visit. This is a small token of our Mansour family's appreciation. Please accept it, Mr. Ye."
As he spoke, Mansur had his servants bring over the large and small packages of gifts.
Looking up, the total value of these gifts must be well over eight figures.
"I wonder if it would be convenient for Mr. Ye to have a chat?"
Mansour spoke.
"All right."
As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face. Since the other party was so polite and courteous, Ye Chen, having nothing else to do, agreed.
Mansour and his daughter walked in.
Ye Chen summoned them in the living room.
After entering, at Old Mansur's suggestion, Young Mansur took the initiative to chat with Ye Chen, deliberately creating topics of conversation.
Old Mansur had also heard about the Ibrahim family's previous attempts to contact Ye Chen.
Old Mansur dismissed the Ibrahim family's tough stance.
The Ibrahim family are utter idiots.
Not only did they fail to acquire the new oil field, they also lost 10 tons of gold.
How ridiculous, how ridiculous!
Old Mansur felt that it was best to use a "soft" approach when dealing with outsiders like Ye Chen.
Old Mansur planned to deal with Ye Chen using a more "gentle" approach.
Of course, his ultimate goal, like Ibrahim's, was to acquire that new oil field.
"I heard that Mr. Ye has just acquired a new oil field near Abu Dhabi. I wonder if Mr. Ye has any plans to make a move?"
During the conversation, old Mansur asked, seemingly "casually".
"No."
Ye Chen refused outright.
Old Mansur was immediately embarrassed.
Ye Chen's words effectively shut down what he was about to say.
But he won't give up so easily.
"Mr. Ye, do you have any plans to find a partner to jointly develop this new oil field?"
Old Mansur changed the subject.
Looking for a partner?
Ye Chen was somewhat interested.
He did seem to have that idea, and Ye Chen wondered what old Mansur would say next.
This is a good opportunity to compare and verify what Caroline said.
“It seems Mr. Ye is interested. I think our Mansour family is your best partner.”
Old Mansur immediately volunteered.
"Our Mansour family wields immense power and influence in the Middle East, and oil is our most important industry. We have extensive experience in this field..."
“If you, an outsider, were to cooperate with our Mansour family, it would be a powerful alliance.”
Old Mansur did indeed have some ideas.
If we're just talking about doing oil business, the Mansour family has an advantage over Caroline.
"Once we cooperate, how will the profits be distributed?"
Ye Chen asked directly.
"Um... let's split it fifty-fifty..."
Mansour thought for a moment and then answered.
A 50/50 split?
As expected, Caroline was more sincere.
“Mr. Ye, that is only a medium-sized oil field after all. If we cooperate, most of it will be handled by our Mansour family. Our profits are limited. Half of the profits would already be considered a loss.”
Mansour pretended to be very sincere.
Ye Chen remained silent, continuing to watch Mansur watch the show.
Mansour is not going to tell the truth.
The comparison with the Mansour family also indirectly confirms Caroline's sincerity.
Ye Chen understood.
"Mr. Ye, please don't rush to answer. We have an even better way to cooperate."
Seeing that Ye Chen did not agree, Mansur suddenly spoke mysteriously.
"Oh right, I remember you Chinese have a term called something like that... Oh right, it's 'marrying into someone's family'..."
“If Mr. Ye agrees, he can get engaged to my youngest daughter tomorrow and join our Mansour family.”
“As long as Mr. Ye marries my daughter, she will become a member of our Mansour family. We will all be one family, so there is no need to talk about the distribution of benefits. In the end, it will all be yours, Mr. Ye.”
Mansour appeared to be very sincere.
As a shrewd old fox, how could Mansour possibly suffer a loss?
According to Mansur's plan, as long as Ye Chen agrees to marry into the Mansur family, he will have plenty of ways to easily "trick" the new oil field out of Ye Chen's hands.
When the time comes and this guy is no longer of any use to me, I'll have my daughter divorce him and kick him out.
Anyway, he has more than a dozen daughters. Sacrificing a daughter's life for several years in exchange for a large oil field, the Mansour family has made a huge profit.
Mansour had a very rosy idea.
After saying that, he looked at Ye Chen with an expectant and "sincere" expression.
