190: Anyone who dares to disobey will be taught a lesson by Hydra.
After Wang Zhennan left, Wang Zixuan finally dared to relax.
After all, when he was out, he represented not only himself but also the Wang family and Young Lord's prestige, so he couldn't be too careless.
"Phew~ I really don't know how Big Brother manages to keep these subordinates in line. If one Heavenly Palace Hotel is like this, what about the entire Heavenly Palace Group?"
Wang Yuxin nodded in agreement upon hearing this, "Mmm, Big Brother must be under a lot of pressure. I suddenly feel so bad for him."
Even Xiao Anyi couldn't help but nod in agreement at these words. After spending some time together, she also had a general understanding of the Wang family.
The Wang family's current success was all thanks to Young Lord. He single-handedly built the current Wang family. How could a man in his early twenties, supporting such a large enterprise, not feel pressure?
At the same time!
Yawn~
On a private jet flying towards Magic City, Young Lord rubbed his nose and muttered, "I wonder who's talking about me behind my back."
"Butler Wei!"
"Young Master?"
"Have Yuxin and the others arrived in Macau?"
"Replying to Young Master, news just came from Macau that Second Miss and the others have just arrived. Young Master, there's also another piece of news: the Second Princess of Dubai is currently in Macau."
Young Lord's face showed confusion upon hearing this.
The Second Princess of Dubai?
She has hands and feet; where she goes is her right. What's so strange about her being in Macau?
That's not right!
Given Butler Wei's character, it's unlikely he would say something meaningless.
Could it be that she's aiming for the Heavenly Palace Hotel?
"What's the situation? What is she doing in Macau?"
"It's like this, Young Master. The news from the Dark Web is that she seems curious about the Heavenly Palace Group and appears to want to make contact. Her trip to Macau this time is likely to learn about the Heavenly Palace Group through the Heavenly Palace Hotel. Of course, we can't rule out that she's just having fun."
???
Having fun?
Curious about the Heavenly Palace Group?
What is all this nonsense!
She wouldn't be coming for me, would she? Alright, he admitted he was a bit narcissistic.
"Forget it, don't mind her. But since she's a princess, if she goes to the Heavenly Palace Hotel, then let Zixuan and the others entertain her."
"Yes, Young Master."
Seeing this, Young Lord said nothing more, glanced at the grapes on the table, reached out, picked one, and popped it into his mouth.
The juice burst in his mouth, and he frowned.
Sweet, too sweet, sickeningly sweet.
Suddenly remembering something, he turned to Butler Wei and asked, "Is there any news about that special cancer drug?"
Butler Wei heard this, organized his thoughts, and said, "Young Master, we received a report not long ago that a research base was found in Mexico. Our people reached an agreement with them and successfully obtained three doses. The efficacy is still being verified. If there are no problems, they will send the items to Magic City the day after tomorrow."
Mexico?
Young Lord was a bit surprised to hear that name. He thought they would put the research base in Europe, not there.
How should one describe Mexico? It's very suitable for an organization like Hydra.
However, this 'agreement between both parties'? Is it what he's imagining?
Who cares, as long as they get the stuff. It's all contributing to humanity; who gets it doesn't matter.
"Does Hydra have people in Mexico?"
It's quite easy to do something to the United States from that place.
Butler Wei, seeing him ask about this, recalled his memories and said, "Because that place is adjacent to the United States and its internal situation is complex, George plans to build it into Hydra's base camp."
George indeed had this idea. Theoretically, Hydra's headquarters are currently erratic; wherever George is, that's the headquarters.
For an organization like Hydra, George knows exactly where he needs to be, and Mexico is that perfect place.
Firstly, it's chaotic enough. Secondly, it's close to the United States. Colossus Group's headquarters are in Oregon State. Just in case, he doesn't want to be too far from it.
And Young Lord, hearing Butler Wei's words, couldn't help but feel satisfied with George.
But then again, who is this George?
Oh, he remembered, the head of Hydra. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but show a wry smile.
He shouldn't have forgotten such an important person.
"Alright, since he's taken a liking to it, it seems I don't need to give any more instructions. Let the others cooperate. Oh, I almost forgot, cut off the supply of 'washing powder' to our side. I don't want to see that stuff at home. If anyone dares to disobey, let Hydra teach them a lesson."
Butler Wei heard this and showed a wry smile. This 'lesson,' is it legitimate?
But since Hydra was mentioned, it probably wasn't very legitimate, the kind that makes people shut up after one lesson.
Young Lord doing this wasn't because he wanted to be a good person.
He admitted he wasn't a good person, but even bad people have bottom lines, and this was his bottom line.
Prostitution, I won't mention a single word!
Gambling, I profit from it!
Washing powder, if I see one at home, I'll kill one!
"Understood, Young Master. Currently, most of our 'washing powder' comes from the Golden Triangle. Hydra is expanding there, so how about leaving this matter to them?"
Young Lord heard this and nodded, "Mmm, you handle it yourself."
"Yes, Young Master!"
He was very confident in Butler Wei's work. You only needed to give instructions, and you wouldn't need to pay too much attention to the subsequent matters.
This also caused him sometimes to not even remember the names of the heads of several major organizations... Macau!
Zheng Family!
Zheng Yongnian slowly put down the documents in his hand after hearing the butler's report and softly said, "Has he arrived?"
The butler naturally knew who 'he' referred to in his master's words.
He slowly shook his head and said, "Replying to Master, no, his younger brother and sister have arrived."
"Biological?"
"Yes, Master!"
Hearing this, Zheng Yongnian couldn't help but feel disappointed that it wasn't him who came.
He had already lost to the other party without ever meeting him, and even now, he hadn't even seen his face. How ironic this was for him.
Zheng Yongnian had worked hard in Macau for most of his life. To be honest, he had never admired anyone, but ever since he encountered Young Lord, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
He still hadn't figured out why the Thai consortium went back on their word back then. The fat meat was already at their mouth; they just needed to open it to eat it.
But in the end, they still didn't move. Was it that they didn't want to, or... didn't dare to?
Even after he had people investigate, they couldn't find any useful information.
However, given what the other party could do in South Korea, with Lotte Building and LG shares, the Thai consortium didn't help him back then, so it must have been the latter.
Didn't dare to help?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh, remembering his previous thoughts, how ridiculous they were.
He slowly stood up, went outside, looked at the cloudless sky, and sighed, "I'm getting old; I actually know fear now."
The butler behind him felt a pang of sadness. He had grown up hearing Zheng Yongnian's stories; the other party was so spirited in his youth.
But then again, if a young man isn't fiery, is he still a young man?
