Liu Xia Lian nodded: "Shaoyang's suggestion is good. We must fight, but we have to postpone it and tow the two aircraft carriers back first. Daya, Erya, you two stay at home to take care of the children, pick them up and drop them off every day, and be more careful during this special period."

"Okay, don't worry, sister."

Liu Xia Lian left Dahua and Dahuang in the forest farm and asked Daya and Erya to protect the children.

Everyone else headed south, straight to the port city.

When Liu Xia Lian and others arrived, Leo, the vice president of Pluto Shipyard, was cursing in a rage, cursing all the ancestors of this group of slippers brothers.

Seeing the buyer, Leo looked apologetic: "Oh, my dear Ms. Liu Xialian, this transaction may not be completed. These slippers are lawless and ask for an exorbitant price."

"Then we will perform according to the contract and you will just have to pay the liquidated damages."

Who is willing to cut meat from himself? Leo said quickly: "There is still room for easing the situation. There is always a solution. The first is to report to our country and mediate diplomatically. These pirates should give face. The second is to pay the ransom. This seems to be faster."

Leo immediately contacted their country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He was able to get in touch, but the other party was very slow in responding. They asked them to release the person first and then consider getting a ship. This could take half a year, or even two to three years.

After hearing this, Liu Xia Lian shook her head. It's no use talking too much. She had already made the promise to Mr. Liu. It would be so embarrassing if she couldn't do it.

The two sides talked for an entire afternoon, and the first point was rejected directly. It was a joke. A group of people driving motorboats and wearing slippers, they knew what diplomacy was. Diplomatic pressure, it would take forever. The longer the delay, the more disadvantageous it would be for the deal. Liu Xialian was worried that countries with ulterior motives would jump out to stop the deal, so she needed to make a quick decision.

That was to implement the second strategy and pay the ransom. Leo disagreed with them bearing the burden alone, so Liu Xialian was forced to add another five million.

With Pluto Shipyard stepping forward to handle the matter, Liu Xia Lian and others were ready to rush over and wipe out these damn pirates, but the reality was that it was difficult.

First of all, there is the issue of transportation. Even charter flights can only reach countries near Somalia, and it takes a month to get there by boat. In short, there are many difficulties. It is very difficult to take revenge. In short, even if you want to fight, you can't get there.

The thunder was loud but the rain was small, and the matter came to an end.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the two scrapped aircraft carriers will be able to arrive at the port city within a month or two.

After returning to Pengcheng, Li Hu opened the Pengcheng Seafood Restaurant in Chenjia Village, a five-story stand-alone hotel covering more than 5,000 square meters.

The tall beauty at the door was at least 1.80 meters tall, ten centimeters taller than Liu Xia Lian, and was wearing a cheongsam with a high slit.

This place is very close to Chencun New District where Liu Xia Lian and others bought houses, so it is very convenient to go home.

Li Hu is not here yet. The boss of Pengcheng Fishery Company, Lao Zhang, is from Liancheng. He was born into a fisherman family and has a secondary technical school education. He is thirty-five or thirty-six years old and has experience in managing hotels and companies.

It was just right for Li Hu to use him, as this guy has a very strong ability to get things done.

"Director Liu, President Zhao, please come upstairs." Zhang Xiang personally took Liu Xia Lian and others upstairs.

"Mr. Zhang, how is the restaurant business here?" Zhao Hua asked.

Mr. Zhang shook his head and said, "We chose this place because we were optimistic about the future. The nearby industrial parks and residential areas are under construction, but it will take several years to get up and running. We bought this building in the village. It's very cheap, 200 yuan per square meter. The first three floors are restaurants, and the fourth and fifth floors are guest rooms. We probably lost money in the first three years. Not many people eat here every day. After all, this location is a bit remote, but the investment value is very high."

Liu Xialian nodded in affirmation: "This location is good. Buying a house and opening a store should focus on future planning, not just the present. Moreover, I told Li Hu that a fishery company can only open a restaurant as a sideline business. It will only be successful if the main business is well done."

"Director Liu is right. What should we eat for lunch?" Zhang Xiang asked.

The people I brought here today are all from inland areas, and they are not used to eating seafood.

"Garlic lobster, steamed grouper, and braised prawns are the only three seafood options. For the rest, we'll have some Northeastern and Shandong dishes."

"Ok."

Zhang Xiang went to the kitchen personally to make arrangements. If other seafood restaurants made Northeastern cuisine, it would be difficult, but it was different here. Two chefs who graduated from Baishan Martial Arts School were invited over.

When Zhang Xiang left, someone in the kitchen asked, "Who were those guests who just came? Mr. Zhang personally received them and even came to the kitchen to prepare the meals."

The chef took a mysterious look and said with a smile, "You probably don't know this, but that's Principal Liu from my alma mater, Baishan Martial Arts School. The other one is Sanda head coach Li Daniu. As for the others, I really don't know them."

A nosy waiter asked, "Head coach of Sanda, you are so famous, is he a good fighter?"

"What do you think of one person chasing hundreds of people?"

Everyone ate and drank well in the private room. After the meal, everyone went back to their rooms to rest and see what to do next.

Zhao Hua took out an envelope and a bunch of keys and handed them to Li Shaoyang.

"Brother Shaoyang, I bought you a small three-bedroom house in Pengcheng. The contract is in the envelope, and here are the keys. It's simply decorated and you can move in anytime."

Li Shaoyang quickly evaded the question: "You built our new house, so it's 90% new. Why are you giving me another house? I can't accept it."

"You'll have to come here often in the future. Staying in a hotel is always uncomfortable. It's nowhere near as comfortable as home."

Li Shaoyang was really not greedy for money, he still recorded the money of Daya and Erya in a notebook and took it whenever he needed it. He didn't want it at all, and of course Liu Xialian rarely bothered him, only calling him when encountering some difficult things, which always had unexpected results.

Zhao Hua talked for a long time before Li Shaoyang took possession of the house. Zhao Hua arranged for Liu Fuliang to take him to take possession of the house.

Liu Xia Lian, Zhao Hua, Zhao Yong, Li Daniu, Dian Yan and others went to the horse farm to have a look. They were all horse lovers, and what's more, the horse farm had complete facilities, which were better than those in a big hotel.

Before I even reached the door, I saw a group of more than a hundred people making trouble in the distance. The public security these days is not as good as it will be in the future, so this kind of thing can only be regarded as a small scene.

Zhao Hua came over and asked his manager: "What's going on? Which customer is blocking the door?"

"A big director from Hong Kong wanted to film a scene where our black horse was hacked to death for 100,000 yuan. I sternly refused, but he said he wanted to show us how powerful we were, so he sent someone over this afternoon."

"Is the director so awesome? I'll go see what's going on."

Zhao Hua came over and shouted, "Who is the leader?"

"I, I am." A yellow-haired man came out. He was not very old, about twenty years old, without a shirt, with a wolf tattoo on his chest, looking ferocious.

"Got it, Brother Wolf, take your people and leave quickly, don't delay my horse ranch business."
