“Go visit the Magnificent Tang Corp tomorrow. And remember to mention your name and that you are going to see Kang Xia. She’s also one us and is the one handling the matters on my behalf. She will sign a memorandum of understanding selling you 20,000 bottles of Gods Nectar annually,” said Tang Xiu with a smile.

“I’ll remember. Anyways, Boss, about the medicinal pill…” said Kuwako respectfully.

“You can rest assured. Someone will deliver you the cultivation resources shortly after you return to Japan. Nevertheless, I have some medicinal pills here for you. After you get back and take it, make sure you do it alone. You can trust me that your cultivation will progress much faster with the assistance of these medicinal pills.”

Having said that, Tang Xiu took out a jade bottle from his interspatial ring and handed it over to Kuwako.

With eyes lit up, Kuwako gratefully said, “Thanks a lot, Boss.”

“No need to thank me,” Tang Xiu waved his hand. “Do remember to perform well tomorrow, there must be no flaws. Also, I’ll spare two among the dozen listed people you gave me, or else you will have to face some difficulties to explain yourself after you return to Japan.”

“I understand,” said Kuwako respectfully.

As Kuwako Yamamoto left, Tang Xiu glanced at Tie Zhongkui and emphasized, “I’m going to personally watch your show tomorrow night, so don’t take it lightly and do unnecessary mistakes. Kuwako is one us, so I hope you can completely trust her in the future.”

“But, Boss, she’s a Japanese,” Tie Zhongkui hesitated. “Besides, she’s also the young lady of the House of Yamamoto, I…”

“I’m well aware of your concern, but she’s more reliable and trustable than those peripheral members of the Everlasting Feast Hall. Also, her identity is very important, for she will be an important character in my future plans. If she’s nurtured well, then I’ll be able to do as I please in Japan in the future.”

Tie Zhongkui went silent for a while, as he then seriously nodded and said, “Since you have said it so, then I’ll naturally regard her as one of us. You can rest assured that we’ll certainly make no mistakes tomorrow.”

Patting his shoulder, Tang Xiu smilingly said, “Remember this place, and let’s go back first! She brought quite a lot of precious herbs and valuable minerals this time. I need to send them to my place at South Gate Town.”

“Copy that, Boss!” Replied Tie Zhongkui respectfully.

October 5th.

After waking up, Tang Xiu washed and then walked to the living room on the first floor. What was strange was that there was someone sitting next to his mother on the sofa. It was the smiling Long Zhengyu.

“Oh, it’s you, Young Master Long. When did you come back?” Tang Xiu let out a smile and asked.

Long Zhengyu got up to hug Tang Xiu and smilingly said, “I just returned to Star City last night. Anyhow, the renovation project in Nine Dragons Island has been progressing very smoothly. It’s expected that we can complete the project around June next year. This time I came back to see the project at Walled Hill Village since there are some problems there.”

Tang Xiu looked puzzled, asking, “Problems in the Walled Hill Village? What is it?”

“It’s not a big deal. There were a subsidence and landslides in the project site. I rushed there right after I came here last night to find out about the matter, and then found there was a tomb underground. I thought it was an ancient tomb or something, but then I finally discovered that it’s not actually an ancient tomb, since the age is less than 100 years. Also, there are nothing precious inside except for dozens of coffins.”

Tang Xiu nodded, “How about the losses?”

“No, it’s not significant and won’t delay the project.” Long Zhengyu shook his head. “But it doesn’t matter, though. We’ll still be able to catch up with the work, and it also won’t affect the deadline and the budget.”

“Walled Hill Village is quite a good place, we must develop it well. Particularly regarding the quality, we must not make any mistakes at all. Otherwise, the aftermath will bring about quite a negative impact on the Long Group, to the extent that the New City project will also be affected.”

The smile on Long Zhengyu’s face slowly disappeared, as he nodded and said, “Rest assured! I’m well aware of it. Besides, my old man has been paying attention to this issue as well recently. I even heard that he’s personally supervising the quality of the project. So I’m sure that there won’t be any problems.”

Nodding in response, Tang Xiu then asked, “Is there something else for you to come so early in the morning?”

“I learned last night that you don’t have to go to Star City Chinese Medical Hospital again today, hence I want to drag you with me to have a look at the New City project together. The foundation of dozens of properties is said to have been completely laid out now. And you, as one of the most important investors, are you telling me that you don’t have the interest to check on it?” Said Long Zhengyu with a smile.

“What good is it for me, anyway?” Tang Xiu replied with a teasing tone. “Kang Xia always visits and supervises the site herself on my behalf. Besides, I got tons of things to deal with, and can only stay at home for this one day since I have to leave for Beijing tomorrow. I haven’t even had a good chat with my Mom ever since I came back this time.”

A smile outlined on the corner of Su Lingyun’s mouth as she spoke, “Xiu’er, since Zhengyu has come seeking you, just go with him! Besides, you always leave early and yet always come back every day. Anyhow, your Dad told me that since it’s a holiday he plans to have us go to Beijing together. Since you’re going to Beijing tomorrow, let us go together to visit your grandpa.”

“That’s great! Then we’ll go together tomorrow,” said Tang Xiu smilingly after hearing it.

After eating breakfast, Tang Xiu and Long Zhengyu left South Gate Town. The duo didn’t go straight to the New City construction site, going to the Long Family residence to visit Long Hanwen instead. After chatting with him for a while, only then did they go to the New City construction site.
