Hao Ren's flight landed and Xiao Mei told him what happened in the negotiation with Trina Cummins, the young man thought about it and said, "Well, we will be postponing the import business with the Hawk Nation particularly. The products we make will go to the Stags, the Grasslands, and even the most remote nation in the south western regions, change the world, but Hawk Nation will have to beg for us to go there." Xiao Mei responded in agreement. She was not designed to do something that the master did not want. They checked out of the immigration department and just when they came out of the airport terminal. Han Lingxue spotted Xia Yulie and dashed over to meet her. Hao Ren smiled and then said to Yue Shenlong, "Let's have a party tonight?" Yue Shenlong smiled and said, "It's on you. I will eat a lot." The men chuckled. They have been through a battle, although it was not very big, and they did not spill a lot of blood but they did go through some stress of handling the meta humans. Only Xia Yulie had come over to receive them because she could not help but worry about the safety of her daughter. The four people left the airport and reached the Han Mansion. Hao Ren learned that Han Lingshi was meeting with the military people on his behalf. Thinking about this, Hao Ren went to the side and asked, "Xiao Mei, what is going on in the meeting?" Xiao Mei replied, "Boss, Commander Gao is trying to force iron fist. He says that if we did not cooperate with them, they will pull back the security they have given to the research center." Hao Ren sighed and said, "Stop Lingshi from answering and tell Commander Gao to understand his place. If he cannot guarantee the safety of my family then what good is it to work with him?" Xiao Mei replied, "Well, they said they can assign guards." Hao Ren clenched his fist and then he took a deep breath before he said, "Since it has come down to this, let us do this, tell Lingshi to agree with them for the time being we will give them what they want, but once I am strong enough, I will bring them down on their knees. They think that I will stand by and watch them pee in my face because of the spirit of patriotism. Hmph, they won't even have the chance to beg once I am done with them." Xiao Mei asked, "Boss, what do you intend to do?" Hao Ren looked outside the window and said, "Grow rich enough to buy a big island network, and build a city of my own." Xiao Mei sighed and replied, "I really want to roll eyes at you. Do you think it is easy to do something like this? The financial side aside, the geographic factors are really not suitable. The water level increase, the tides and the cyclones. The construction process will stretch over for a decade." Hao Ren scratched the back of his head, he realized that in anger he said all those things. Then he asked, "What shall I do?" Xiao Mei replied, "You shall win the goodwill of the masses. Then you shall dominate the industry, and also, stop researching medicine that can be used by the military. At the same time, cultivate a force of your own." Hao Ren thought about it and said, "You are right, I shall do this. Xiao Mei, what would I do without you?" Xiao Mei replied, "Maybe waste your money chasing after unrealistic dreams." The old chief opened his eyes wide, and stood up before he said, "Boss, please do not say anything more." Hao Ren smiled and waved his hand, and the next moment a bunch of needles appeared out of nowhere, floating above Hao Ren's palm. This shocked Heath and made the old man sit back into the couch. The young man said, "I am also a cultivator, although just a beginner. You are right to be afraid of the DEHB, however, do not worry, I am not with them. On the contrary, I am one of their enemies." The two were surprised, and Hao Ren said, "Now, tell me, are you afraid of them because they have power, or are you afraid because you are weak?" The two people took a deep breath and then they calmed down after a few minutes. After a few minutes, the old man said, "Yes, I have had some encounters with them. It is not their number that scare me, it is their strength. We as military people are not allowed to divulge this information. Once every six months, they will send someone to come and talk to us, checking if we have divulged the information to anyone." Hao Ren nodded and said, "Well, either they have some deep secret they want to keep at any cost, or they are just bluffing to look big. How long before the next check?" Heath replied, "Five months later." Hao Ren nodded and said, "I will ask you one more time, would you like to cultivate and join my forces? In return, I will give you resources and also, heal the injuries you and your fellows have suffered all these years." The two people were shocked, and Hao Ren said, "You know I made that Spirit Rejuvenation Potion, right?" Heath clenched his fist and then said, "Old Chief, please think carefully. It might be the only chance for all the brothers to accomplish something." The old man shook his head and asked, "Can I think about it?" Hao Ren nodded and said, "You can tell me everything by the evening tomorrow. Also, regardless of your decision, I will cure your lungs." The two people were surprised, they did not expect Hao Ren to know that the old man had trouble with his lungs. The two men were confused and Hao Ren stood up from his chair before he came to stand behind the old man, and then he quickly stabbed the tip of his thumb in his back area. The old man coughed a little, and Heath got worried. After the old man calmed down, he looked at Hao Ren in shock and the young man said, "This is a temporary remedy." Then he gave him a verbal prescription and said, "I will send it to you on your phone, brew it into a bowl of soup and have it in five portions. This will strengthen your lungs for the treatment tomorrow." The two were surprised and did not expect something like this to happen when they came here. They wished him well and left the place. Hao Ren smiled at their back and heard Han Lingshi say, "You are such a cunning man, Ren, tonight you broke my illusion where you were an innocent boy." Hao Ren chuckled and said, "Then I shall show you how cunning I really am." Then he chased after her and the house echoed with laughter and babble.
