When I woke up again, the scorching sunlight filtered through the curtains and projected onto the bed, adding a hazy and unreal feeling.

Wen Xu reached for the phone on the bedside table and checked the time. It was already 3: in the afternoon.

She slept for a long time.

The phone showed about twenty missed calls and one text message.

For some reason, there were so many people looking for her today. Three unfamiliar phone numbers accounted for the majority of the calls, and no one knew who they were.

Wen Xu guessed that one of the calls should be from Zhou Zhan.

Chen Yi, He Zhiyun, Qiao Dian and Bucktooth Er also called her.

The text message was from one of the unknown callers, and it was Zhou Zhan, who asked her to see the call back time at 10 a.m.

Wen Xu took his phone into the bathroom. After washing up, he did not reply to Zhou Zhan first, but to Qiao Dian.

Macau has been in chaos recently. Qiao Dian received news that the Chief Executive flew back from the capital in the early morning and held a day-long meeting. He will soon issue clear instructions and crack down on criminal groups at the cost of a lot of manpower and resources.

"People like Bucktooth 2, who usually collect protection fees and go to people's homes to collect usury, are also among those who will be severely cracked down on. I specifically told Bucktooth 2 this news this morning to scare them. Miss Lu, now is your chance to win people's hearts."

There was a hint of excitement in Qiao Dian's voice. Before, he was thinking about how to talk to Bucktooth Erli and ask him to quit his job and do a proper job under the boss. Now, they have no choice but to quit!

Wen Xu walked to the living room, put his phone on speaker and put it on the coffee table. He poured a cup of hot water, took a sip to moisten his throat, and said, "Mr. Bai called me at noon, but I haven't called back yet. I wonder if it's because of this."

Qiao Dian chuckled, "He got anxious when I said that. There are so many mouths to feed, and there are still patients lying in the hospital. He probably asked you if you have any work to do, hoping to make some quick money with his brothers."

"Mr. Bai's arrangements are all up to Brother Qiao." Wen Xu sat on the sofa, looking at the azure ocean downstairs. "Brother Qiao, I have a new project on hand and need to find some capable people. I have taken over the three gem mines of the Cheng family on the border of Myanmar."

"This is a big deal!" Qiao Dian was stunned for a while before speaking, hesitantly reminding: "I know which three you are talking about. To be honest, that place is close to the no-man's land and is very chaotic."

"I know that the more chaotic the situation, the better. I just need a bunch of brothers who are not afraid of death around me!"

Wen Xu drank some water, his voice mixed with laughter, "Brother Qiao, now is an opportunity, can you help me ask if there are any teams willing to develop there and be treated as formal mercenaries? If we succeed in taking over the three mines, and if they are willing to stay in Southeast Asia, I will sign an employment contract with them as a military company."

In that lawless area, supporting armed forces is a normal thing.

The people living over there are a bunch of hungry wolves who can't stand the sight of even a scrap of meat. Wen Xu, an outsider, is not suitable to use the mercenaries over there to guard the mountain. He might be eaten by the hungry wolves he raised himself.

It is also a good choice to first find someone from Australia City and give them some time to develop them.

And since everyone came from Australia, they will definitely unite and face the outside world together.

Qiao Dian knew the situation there better than Wen Xu. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "How many people do you want to find?"

Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. The situation in Australia City is not good, and there are many ruthless people who want to move out. He has to find the most suitable people according to the needs.

"Two hundred people for now." Wen Xu put down the cup and stood up. "I know that place is very exclusive, and I don't want to take people to hell."

"Okay!" Qiao Dian responded, "I'll contact a few people now to ask, what are your requirements for hiring people?"

"Obey the instructions, be smart, be able to fight or use a gun, don't be reckless. Also, my bottom line is that no one can touch drugs. Brother Qiao, help me select more people. I will select the best from the best, and the rest will be in reserve."

Everyone knows what is the most developed over there. The people Qiao Dian can find are basically gangsters. The requirements are too high and they cannot meet them for the time being, but the bottom line cannot be broken.

After she said that, Qiao Dian felt relieved. "I'll give you the list in three days. By the way, Xinli announced today that they are looking for someone to take over the business. The current offer is quite high, but no one is willing to take it. I have asked someone to keep an eye on it. I'll try to persuade them for a few more days and try to get the lowest price!"

Wen Xu replied, "Don't worry. Don't people in this business all believe in Feng Shui? After what happened in Xinli, the city of Australia has started to regulate. There are too few people willing to take over. We just want the land, and it would be best if we could also take over the land at the explosion dock."

After hanging up the phone with Qiao Dian, Wen Xu called Bucktooth Er second.

Just as Qiao Dian said, Bucktooth Er cast a wide net and asked the bosses he knew if they had any business to take care of.

Bucktooth Er is a very righteous man, but unfortunately he is not suitable for the cannibalistic environment in Southeast Asia, otherwise it would not be a bad idea to take Bucktooth Er to develop there.

For the third call, Wen Xu looked through the call records, hesitated for a few seconds, and called back Zhou Zhan.

On the one hand, Zhou Zhan came to see her to thank her for yesterday, and on the other hand, He Yexing wanted to see her.

After a physical examination this morning, the doctor diagnosed He Yexing that he had at most one month to live. He wanted to talk to Wen Xu again while he was still conscious, probably because he wanted her to assist Zhou Zhan in managing the Hidden Dragon Society and act as "regent".

He Zhiyun came to her for the same thing.

When they met yesterday, she had already digested the news and shared it with Luo Feng and the other two.

I originally planned to spend a few days with Liang He at night, but now that my old friend is about to die, it would be nice to see him again before leaving Australia City.

Wen Xu did not give Zhou Zhan a specific visiting time, but only asked for the hospital address and said that he would go there when he had time.

"Do you plan to take over the three gem mines in your own name, or someone else's?"

When Wen Xu was about to hang up the phone, Zhou Zhan suddenly remembered another important matter. He was currently dealing with the aftermath of yesterday's auction. Shen Qi'an would go to Yue State to sign the contract for the 15 mineral resources he had acquired tomorrow, and he could help her with the formalities.

"Luo Hanqing, the identity I'm pretending to be." Wen Xu glanced at his phone, thought for a moment and said, "Add WeChat, I'll send you the information."

Zhou Zhan was stunned for a few seconds when he heard her mention WeChat. "I don't have WeChat. Wait a minute. I'll see how to register."

Wen Xu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Okay, then add me!"

After hanging up the phone, Wen Xu looked at the red missed calls from unfamiliar people on his phone and didn't call back.

Smart ones would be like Zhou Zhan and send a message to introduce themselves.

She didn't leave any message and she wasn't in a hurry to reply. She would call back if there was anything.

Wen Xu flipped through her phone and was about to call Chen Yi, but the other party seemed to have telepathic contact and called her directly.

"Girl, you finally answered the phone. If you didn't answer it, I would have gone to the casino to find you!" Chen Yi started complaining before she could say anything. Judging from his tone, he seemed to be quite annoyed.
