"Prince Jenas, when the time comes to seek my help, please show a little more sincerity." Fang Jueyu left this ambiguous remark, then walked away with his glass in hand. The people around were left with puzzled expressions, thinking a conflict was about to erupt, but how did it end so inconsequentially?

"Seek your help? Hmph!" Jenas snorted coldly. It seemed he didn't catch the underlying meaning in Fang Jueyu's words, nor did he understand any of the exchange between him and the King of Saudi Arabia earlier.

Given the circumstances, Princess Silet decided not to continue her conversation with Jenas. She quickly caught up with Fang Jueyu, apparently intrigued by his recent phone call.

"Fang Jueyu, did I just hear you speaking Saudi?"

"Yeah." Fang Jueyu nodded. With Little Yi around, Fang Jueyu wouldn't misspeak even in Namekian.

"You even speak Saudi!" Silet said enviously. "I thought you only knew how to goof around! So what was that phone call about? And you said Jenas would definitely come to seek your help; did you do something?"

"Oh, it's nothing major; I just asked the King of Saudi Arabia to double the oil price when selling to the Sailote Kingdom from now on!" Fang Jue said casually, unaware of how such a statement could affect those who heard it.

"Are you kidding?" Silet knew Fang Jueyu had deep connections, which was evident from her grandmother Queen Yisha'er's attitude, but dealings in state oil exports weren't simple trade issues. How could he make the King of Saudi Arabia obey with just a few words?

"Whether I'm kidding or not, you'll know in a few days." Fang Jueyu smiled. "I'm not someone to leave quietly after suffering a loss."

Almost simultaneously, in the Kingdom of Sailuoke, Minister of Energy Ludewi suddenly received a call from Saudi Arabia. The time zones between the two countries were different, with Saudi Arabia being several hours behind, so it must have been urgent to call at this hour.

"Hello, this is Ludewi!" Ludewi took the phone from his assistant.

"Minister Ludewi, here's the situation: I wanted to notify you that starting today, the price of oil we export to the Sailote Kingdom will be doubled."

"What?" Ludewi, who was feeling a bit sleepy, suddenly became alert when he heard this message. The Sailote Kingdom imports half of its oil from Saudi Arabia, amounting to a substantial sum. Doubling the cost would visibly burden both the Ministry of Energy and the entire nation.

"Why? Is there a problem with the oil wells?" Recently, there hadn't been any major international developments, so Ludewi thought perhaps an issue in oil production had increased costs, prompting the price hike.

Such incidents had occurred before, but the increase had never been as extreme as 100%.

"The King only told me one thing: ask a Prince named Jenas for the details. I don't know anything else," added the Saudi representative. "Of course, you are free to reject the price, in which case you'll need to find new import channels!"

Ludewi hung up the phone with a stunned expression, "Prince Jenas? Could he have offended some Saudi noble?"

He thought for a long time but could only come up with this explanation. He immediately dialed the president's phone number, realizing the significance of this news needed presidential attention...

"Mr. Fang, you're back?" Hilton was chatting with a few other wealthy individuals when he saw Fang Jueyu approaching. "I thought you were going to have a delightful night with Princess Silet!"

The earlier conflict had been brief and discreet, so Hilton hadn't noticed.

"What's delightful, really; it was almost ruined!" Fang Jueyu grumbled.

"Oh? Could someone have been foolish enough to upset Mr. Fang?" Though unaware of the details and the person involved, Hilton knew there were only a few at this event capable of offending Fang Jueyu, and surely he wouldn't be the unlucky one.

"Come on, let's not let those unpleasant events spoil our fun tonight. Let me introduce you to a few friends!" Hilton said, a bit nonchalantly. "Mr. Arnold and Mr. Slim, they are among the top ten richest individuals globally, and we conduct many business transactions together!"

"Gentlemen, this young man is Fang Jueyu from Huaxia, and I'm sure you've heard of him—he's the one who recently donated over 30 billion US Dollars!" Hilton introduced.

"Mr. Fang, you're indeed young!" Arnold and Slim, hearing Hilton's introduction, didn't put on airs. Though Fang Jueyu was young, his wealth certainly qualified him as their peer.

"Mr. Arnold, long time no see!" They barely exchanged a few words when a subtle fragrance wafted over from nearby. A group of female Asian celebrities approached, whom Fang Jueyu had seen earlier. Unexpectedly, their English was quite good too.

"Oh, Ms. Mizuhara, haha," Arnold laughed. "Ms. Mizuhara Rimi, everyone should know her; she's currently one of our brand ambassadors in Asia!"

"Hehe, it's only because Mr. Arnold values me," Mizuhara Rimi said with a smile. "We're not too familiar with this place; would you mind if we joined you for a drink or two?"

"Of course, with the company of such beautiful ladies, tonight's event will surely be more delightful."

Fang Jueyu noticed Hilton's wandering eyes on Ayase Haruka.

"Mr. Fang, you're all Asians; you should get to know each other better!" Hilton casually moved and nudged Hashimoto Kanako closer to Fang Jueyu.

It had to be said, these old men were pretty crafty. With women joining the conversation, the topics expanded beyond just business, especially with Hilton, whose witty remarks surprised Fang Jueyu.@@novelbin@@

"You guys continue chatting; Ms. Ayase said she'd like to take a stroll nearby—I'll accompany her!" Hilton announced suddenly, and Fang Jueyu could tell the old man was getting restless. Experience new stories on My Virtual Library Empire

Judging by Ayase Haruka's demeanor, she seemed quite willing. It turned out, in this world, with enough money, most things were achievable, and Fang Jueyu now believed the racy comments Hilton made earlier were genuine.

"Haha, you're still the same!" Arnold and Slim seemed well aware of Hilton's nature.

"Mr. Fang, I'd like to explore this estate as well," Hashimoto Kanako suddenly whispered to Fang Jueyu. "I'm a bit afraid of the dark; could you accompany me?"

"This..." Fang Jueyu was momentarily stunned by the direct invitation.

"Haha, Mr. Fang, you can't be like this!" Seeing Fang Jueyu's embarrassed state, Arnold and Slim started teasing him. They leaned in and whispered, "You're not incapable, are you?"

"You're the ones who aren't capable! It's just a tour of the estate!" A man can take anything but being called incapable.
