Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 425: Chapter 318 The Eight Great Families Gather at the Feast

Su Zhengxiong’s acquisition of two hundred grams of Spirit Rhyme Tea was entirely a chance encounter; there was no special channel involved.

But thinking about it, that makes sense. Spirit Rhyme Tea, a top-quality tea leaf sold by the gram and worth over a hundred million, must have an astonishingly low production volume. Under such circumstances, even the eight great clans might not be able to obtain it. It was already a stroke of immense luck that a minor figure like Su Zhengxiong managed to get his hands on some. How could he possibly have a consistent channel to acquire this tea?

Besides, if such a channel really existed, Su Zhengxiong probably wouldn’t have begrudged drinking it and wouldn’t have ended up giving Chu Mo a bargain.

With two hundred grams of tea worth over twenty-three million, Chu Mo specifically instructed his butler to store it properly. The tea would only be served to guests when he gave the command. On regular days, a top-quality Pu’er tea worth over two million per 500 grams was more than sufficient to entertain most guests.

Chu Mo had sent Ma Kai to work under detective agency head Zhang Ailun, a man capable of quick thinking. With Zhang Ailun being somewhat rigid, if Ma Kai were sensible enough to fully commit to strategizing for him, the agency might see decent development in the future.

Of course, Chu Mo wasn’t worried about Ma Kai playing any clever tricks. Though the head of the detective agency, Jiang Tao, was hospitalized, his gaze kept a constant watch over the entire agency.

Furthermore, two months from now he would be fully recovered. Any slight cleverness from Ma Kai would amount to nothing against Jiang Tao’s absolute force. That is precisely why Chu Mo had placed him in the detective agency rather than in Bafang International with Zhan Bingxue or Shi Yuan Entertainment with Qin Zixuan.

With Jiang Tao’s dominance in the detective agency, Ma Kai was doomed to cause no significant stir.

With that, the matter of the Spirit Rhyme Tea was concluded. Although Chu Mo had not acquired a channel for the tea, he felt no great regret. Such items were always serendipitous and if there happened to be an unlimited supply, then Spirit Rhyme Tea would lose its extravagant value.

Chu Mo didn’t plan to serve this top-tier tea to the visiting King of Shate Kingdom. For these foreigners, whether they drank tea that cost ten yuan per 500 grams from the street or the priceless Spirit Rhyme Tea, the effect would be the same— they wouldn’t be able to appreciate its value.

What troubled Chu Mo was that after much thought, he couldn’t think of a method to entertain the King’s party from the Shate Kingdom in a way that would satisfy them.

Whether it was the luxury of Tianxiang Garden or the prestige of Emperor Xuan Villas, what seemed top-tier to the average person would be just ordinary to the highly esteemed King of Shate Kingdom, failing to pique his interest.

Even the female attendants on the ninety-fifth floor of Tianxiang Garden would likely seem as nothing more than powdered skulls in the eyes of this King, not worth a second glance.

Chu Mo agonized for two days over how to entertain the King of Shate Kingdom until, just when he was about to give up, he received an unexpected phone call.

The King’s itinerary had changed. The original plan for a secret visit to Capital City on November 17th was canceled. The final arrangement was for a direct flight to Hong Kong on the afternoon of the 17th, where the Long family from Hong Kong would be responsible for hosting the King and his party.

At the same time, the heads of Hua Country’s eight great families would gather in Hong Kong, and Chu Mo was the only individual outside of these great families to receive an invitation.

After hanging up, Chu Mo fell silent for a moment.

According to the original plan, he was supposed to host the King of Shate Kingdom in Capital City and would have a two-hour meeting with the King and the Prince. Chu Mo even had the conversation topics meticulously planned out.

But now, the original plan was disrupted with the entire eight great families of Hua Country attending.

This time, he would meet not just the heirs of the great families but the true helmsmen. Chu Mo was now the ninth person to be invited, after the family heads.

Hua Country’s eight great families have a total asset exceeding ten trillion, which is a terrifying force capable of changing certain patterns. If you add Chu Mo and the King of Shate Kingdom, this force will undergo a qualitative change, reaching a level that’s shocking to hear about.

When these people gather together, it is already an explosive piece of news in itself.

Among the eight families, the only one Chu Mo had met from the Jiangnan Li family was Family Head Li Xiaoyao, whose Jinmao Mansion, the number one skyscraper in Modu valued at forty billion, had been acquired from the Li family.

As for the Yang family of Capital City, he hadn’t yet met Family Head Yang Tianxia, but the eldest daughter of the Yang family, Yang Duoer, was right in his own Emperor Xuan Villas.

And oddly enough, the biggest goal of Miss Yang Duoer was to take control of the eight great families; for this, Yang Duoer was in great need of Chu Mo’s power.

The itinerary of the King of Shate had changed abruptly, and almost all Chu Mo’s plans had been disrupted. The meeting was scheduled for three in the afternoon today, and Chu Mo needed to arrive in Xiangjiang before two, leaving him very little time to prepare. So, the moment he hung up the phone, he began arranging various affairs.@@novelbin@@

The head maid prepared a formal suit for him. This meeting was a very formal gathering, with characters such as the King of Shate and heads of the eight big families present. At the very least in terms of appearance, Chu Mo had to make himself look more mature and steady!

While he was changing clothes, the head of the bodyguard team, Fan Gao, also immediately got into action. The courtyard’s private plane was once again put to use. With tight timing, there simply wasn’t enough time for Chu Mo to dilly-dally; all actions were happening concurrently.

No sooner had Chu Mo changed his clothes than maid He Qing had already placed a wristwatch worth hundreds of millions on his wrist. He came to the front door of the hall, where three maids were serving him at the same time.

The foreign maid Tina bent down to change his shoes, while a petite maid named Bell was tying his bow tie, and the head maid was also dealing with the creases on his clothes.

Once everything was in order, the butler Danny also bent over and said:

“Mr. Chu, the private jet at Changhong Airport has been arranged for you. After you arrive at Changhong Airport, you can directly transfer to our private Boeing aircraft, which will take you straight to Xiangjiang!”

Chu Mo looked at his watch, and though the original plan had been thrown into chaos, everything had become somewhat confused, he was still looking forward to meeting with the heads of the eight big families.

Chu Mo’s next goal was to become the ninth great family of Hua Country, to stand on an equal footing with the eight great families. So, what he had to do now was to enter the circle of the eight great families, to gain their recognition, and step by step, to trample these eight families under his feet.

With all preparations made, accompanied by the protection of team leader Fan Gao, Chu Mo walked towards the private helicopter in the courtyard, while butler Danny and ten maids bowed in unison to see him off.

After stepping onto the helicopter, Chu Mo turned his head; he glanced at the hall’s entrance where Yang Duoer stood holding a small black cat, instinct telling him that after this departure, when he returned, Miss Yang of the Yang family would probably have left Emperor Xuan as well.

Withdrawing his gaze, waiting for deputy team leader Fang Lihu to close the helicopter’s door, Chu Mo softly said:

“Let’s go!”

The journey to Xiangjiang had officially begun!
