Because of his wife and children, even the sharpest blade must be sheathed; even the most skilled swordsmanship must be concealed.
As Jufeng was honoring the members of the Hurricane Team, this thought had already taken root in his mind, so he planned to send Tong Bailong to the military.
This was not merely out of selfishness; in fact, it was because the military was indeed a better fit for Tong Bailong.
The television was broadcasting news about the destruction of a Terrorist Arms Factory, where five young faces were taking turns receiving rewards.
Jufeng turned to Tong Bailong and asked, "Tong Bailong, would you be willing to join the military?"
Tong Bailong was one of the first Three Titans to follow Jufeng, and he trusted him completely. Whether it was the Underworld or the military, he would do whatever Jufeng instructed him to do. He knew that his current good life at home was all thanks to Brother Jufeng.
"Brother Jufeng, of course I’m willing! I know you always have my best interests at heart; I’ll just follow your arrangements."
Jufeng looked at Tong Bailong, whose personality was truly childlike, which was hard to reconcile with his sturdy physique.
"Tong Bailong, remember my words. Once you enter the military, just obey your superiors' orders and do your best. If anyone bullies you, stand up for yourself—just don’t let it escalate to a life-or-death situation."
Tong Bailong nodded eagerly like a chick pecking at rice, carefully remembering Jufeng's instructions.
Jufeng smiled and then recalled the harshness of military life. He said to Tong Bailong, "You won’t be able to eat whenever you want; you'll have to eat according to a set schedule. That might be tough for you."
Tong Bailong flashed a big grin and replied cheerfully, "Brother Jufeng, don’t worry! I've been working on my habits lately. My mom introduced me to someone back home and specifically told me not to eat like I used to. I've improved a lot!"
Jufeng paused in surprise at his words and then smiled happily. Tong Bailong was getting a partner; time really flew by like flowing water.
The next day, Tong Bailong left for a secret Special Training Team for intensive training. Those who graduated from there all had limitless prospects.
Jufeng silently hoped that Tong Bailong would make an impressive debut!
With trivial matters settled, it was time to deal with Equivor and Incor.
After Tong Bailong left, Jufeng called Cao Yangrong and Liu Hengying to Azure Waterside. Claudia and Ikeda Masahiro had prepared some fruits for everyone, but surrounded by beautiful women, Cao Yangrong felt quite uncomfortable.
Since Guo Hua's departure, Cao Yangrong had been managing Zongheng Express, keeping the company in order. He had handled the joint attacks from Equivor and Incor exceptionally well, as well as the collaboration with Vera's companies.
Jufeng had a good impression of him; he was measured in his actions, polite, and an honest yet bold businessman.
"Brother Jufeng, I wonder why you called me this time. The last two times were challenging issues that weren't easy to resolve. This time, it can't be another difficult problem, can it?"
Cao Yangrong tried to ease his inner awkwardness with a joking tone. However, his tone revealed that he was not afraid of problems—not just because of his confidence but also because he now had a partner in Liu Hengying.
The addition of the talented businesswoman lightened his burden significantly, allowing him to relax and engage in light-hearted conversation.
Jufeng smiled and called over Second Sister, drawing the attention of several other sisters as well.
"Don't worry, Brother Cao. This time it's definitely good news."
With that, Jufeng played the data he obtained from Azure Dragon Monk for Cao Yangrong and Liu Hengying to see. Claudia glanced over and couldn't help but be drawn in by the familiar names on the screen.
The data played quickly, lasting only two minutes. However, for Cao Yangrong and Liu Hengying, those two minutes felt like several years.
Once the data finished playing, they remained stunned, while Claudia's mouth hung open in disbelief.
Lu Qijia observed the three of them and then looked at Jufeng's mischievous face, feeling a warm surge of affection in her heart.
Her husband was truly playful; he had known this would be their reaction yet still chose to let them be shocked.
After a while, it was Cao Yangrong who first regained his composure. He looked at Jufeng in astonishment, realizing he had many questions but didn't know where to start.
Jufeng sensed his confusion and said, "Brother Cao, there's no need to rush with your questions. Let me first explain the general situation. If you have any questions afterward, feel free to ask."
Cao Yangrong nodded, and Liu Hengying and Claudia also snapped out of their shock.
Jufeng said, "Recently, there have been reports about the dismantling of a terrorist organization. A friend of mine was involved throughout the process, and this information was downloaded from their Central Computer. The military can verify its authenticity. As for the authenticity of the transaction records, you can easily check their company's financial reports. Even if they try to disguise it, it will be easy to investigate."
Jufeng concluded by emphasizing two points: this information came through legitimate channels, and the contents within it are true.
Cao Yangrong's doubts ultimately boiled down to these two issues; otherwise, if they recklessly made this information public, it could lead to trouble for themselves.
Upon hearing this, Liu Hengying felt a surge of excitement in her heart. She knew this was the best opportunity; if used properly, they could completely absorb Equivor and Incor.
She asked, "What do you mean by showing us this information?"
"I want to swallow both companies," Jufeng declared firmly.
Seeing that Jufeng's thoughts aligned with her own, Liu Hengying felt elated. She was eighty percent confident that it could work out; this truly was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
However, Cao Yangrong was not as optimistic. Being a cautious person, he pondered for a moment before asking his final question.
"But Zongheng Express currently lacks the strength to take on such a large piece of cake. If we act rashly, other companies might take advantage."
Jufeng smiled; he had considered this as well. To reassure Cao Yangrong, he said, "What if we include Jinhai Industries? What about Lu Group? There are also some enterprises under Hua Gang, Unification Alliance, and United Heart Association. Individually they may seem insignificant, but together they form an immense force."
Seeing that Jufeng had thought of this too, Cao Yangrong couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. He then said, "Since you are so confident, Liu Hengying and I will naturally not slack off. We will consolidate domestic resources and take down both companies."
Jufeng nodded; this timeline was acceptable to him. He comforted them, saying, "You may have to stay up late for this; it's going to be tough."
Claudia stepped away from business matters and wouldn’t return to them. Watching Jufeng grow happier and more successful filled her heart with joy as well.
After sending off Cao Yangrong and Liu Hengying, Claudia and Lu Qijia retreated upstairs to discuss nutrition and childcare. Even though it was Lu Qijia's child, the two seemed more invested than if it were their own.
Jufeng embraced Lu Qijia from behind, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, basking in the sunlight and admiring the greenery outside. He gently caressed her increasingly round belly, both of them closing their eyes in contentment.
After a while, Lu Qijia spoke softly, "Wind, your footsteps are getting farther away. I heard that Underworld has unified the domestic market and is about to swallow those two Fortune 500 companies from Cosmos. It seems that overnight, you will become the richest person in Huaguo. Sometimes I wonder how my judgment was so sharp back then to choose you! Looking at it now, you truly are the most outstanding young man in all of Huaguo."
Lu Qijia's words were not unfounded. If Jufeng successfully merged with Equivor and Incor in business, he would undoubtedly leap into becoming a financial giant in Huaguo and even worldwide. Not just in Huaguo; across Outer Space, how many could achieve such remarkable accomplishments at just over twenty years old?
Jufeng affectionately wiped Lu Qijia's face and teased, "Jia'er, are you being narcissistic? Your judgment is good; how could mine be any worse? In this world, who is more graceful and elegant than Jia'er? Moreover, Jia'er has given me a child so quickly; you truly are a master at raising children."
Lu Qijia lightly tapped Jufeng's hand with her delicate palm and playfully replied, "There's no need to flatter me like that. Being able to grow old with you is enough for me; I am truly content."
Jufeng fell silent. At the peak of his life, with the companionship and support of his beloved, what could be more blissful than this?
