"That's great! When will you design trendy clothes for wholesale for me?" Jiang Xianghan said eagerly.
"Not so soon, it might take a few more months," Chen Haoxuan replied.
"Alright! I'll wait a few more months then! I hope you won't disappoint me by then," Jiang Xianghan said happily.
…………………………divider……………………………………
On August 12th, Amanxi Binqi would send his butler Kendall to negotiate with Chen Haoxuan. Therefore, Chen Haoxuan got up early that day. He took Jiang Dong and the others to Xinshi Airport to pick up Kendall. To give Kendall face, Chen Haoxuan rented an 8-meter-long Lincoln and also borrowed Zhou Kexin's Ferrari. The three luxury cars headed towards the airport.
When Chen Haoxuan and the others parked the car at the airport exit, many people gathered around to admire the rented Lincoln. In China, 8-meter-long cars are quite rare, so many people couldn't help but take a second look.
Chen Haoxuan asked Jiang Dong and the others to wait outside while he went inside to greet Kendall. He had already seen a photo of Kendall yesterday, so he wasn't worried about not recognizing him.
Chen Haoxuan arrived early, and Kendall's flight had not yet landed. After waiting for about half an hour, Kendall's flight finally arrived. Chen Haoxuan carefully observed the people exiting the plane. Suddenly, he spotted a group of foreigners in suits, and the person at the front was exactly who Chen Haoxuan was looking for—Kendall.
"Mr. Kendall, over here! I'm Chen Haoxuan!" Chen Haoxuan shouted loudly in English. To be honest, he disliked speaking English; if possible, he would prefer not to speak it at all. Since arriving in this century, he had a greater ambition than wealth—he wanted everyone in the world to take pride in speaking Mandarin Chinese and even have foreigners take proficiency tests in it with different levels.
Upon hearing someone call him, Kendall looked in the direction of the voice and recognized that it was the famous sculptor Chen Haoxuan. Chen Haoxuan was quite well-known now; most people in Europe knew his name, and some young girls even made posters of him to hang in their rooms.
Kendall waved at Chen Haoxuan to indicate that he had spotted him. He approached Chen Haoxuan with his four subordinates. "Mr. Chen, I'm glad you could come to pick me up personally," Kendall said as he reached out his right hand to shake hands with Chen Haoxuan, smiling.
"I'm also very glad you could come to China. Please," Chen Haoxuan gestured for Kendall to follow him. Although Kendall was just a butler, his status was not low; after all, he was Amanxi Binqi's butler. If one wanted him to say good things on their behalf in front of Amanxi Binqi, it would cost at least several million USD. The more he spoke, the more money he would collect; one could say he was very economical with his words.
Outside the airport, Chen Haoxuan walked over to the eight-meter-long Lincoln and personally opened the door for Kendall, smiling as he said, "Mr. Kendall, please get in."
The Lincoln had a dedicated driver, so Chen Haoxuan and Kendall did not need to drive. Chen Haoxuan and Kendall sat in the Lincoln, while Jiang Dong and Kendall's bodyguards took the BMW and Ferrari.
Throughout the journey, Chen Haoxuan continuously sought topics to discuss with Kendall, who was quite knowledgeable. After talking for a while, Chen Haoxuan learned about Kendall's interests and focused on topics that Kendall enjoyed. He felt he needed to curry favor with someone stronger than himself for now; once he became powerful enough, he wouldn't need to flatter foreigners anymore, as he put it, losing his identity.
Upon arriving at Chen Haoxuan's residence, he stepped out of the car to a flurry of flashes and the sound of cameras clicking. There were more media present today than in recent times because it was a significant day—the day of the transaction between Chen Haoxuan and Amanxi Binqi.
Jiang Dong and others formed a human wall to allow Chen Haoxuan and Kendall to enter the house. Once inside, Kendall requested to see the Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda.
The Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda was located in the living room. Chen Haoxuan pulled off the cloth covering it, revealing the pagoda radiating a sacred glow before Kendall's eyes. "Is this a masterpiece of God? It's exquisite," Kendall exclaimed upon seeing the Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda, feeling it looked much better than in the videos.
"Mr. Kendall, here is a magnifying glass; please take a closer look for any issues," Chen Haoxuan offered with a smile.
"Thank you," Kendall replied as he took the magnifying glass and began examining it closely. The more he looked, the more astonished he became; he had never seen such a perfect stone carving. The Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda featured thousands of Chinese Buddhas intricately carved in lifelike detail and various poses. Coupled with the natural colors of Water Stone, he dared say it was worth 1.1 billion RMB.
Kendall examined each Buddha statue meticulously, taking his time. Chen Haoxuan stood patiently by without interrupting him. After half an hour, Kendall put down the magnifying glass with a shocked expression and said to Chen Haoxuan, "Mr. Chen, you have truly amazed me; your carving of the Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda is simply perfect. You are undoubtedly the greatest sculptor in the world."
"Thank you for your praise," Chen Haoxuan replied with a smile. He then added, "If there are no issues, can we proceed with the transaction?"
"Of course! After signing the contract, I will have Mr. Amancy Pinch transfer the funds immediately," Kendall smiled back.
"Let's sit down and discuss this slowly," Chen Haoxuan suggested.
Kendall handed a contract to Chen Haoxuan. After reviewing it and finding no issues, Chen Haoxuan signed his name.
Seeing that Chen Haoxuan had signed, Kendall had his bodyguard bring over his personal laptop. He used the laptop to report to Amanxi Binqi, who was far away in the United States, about his activities in China. Once Amanxi Binqi confirmed the authenticity of the Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda, he began processing the remittance.
Since Amanxi Binqi wanted to see the Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda as soon as possible, after Kendall and Chen Haoxuan successfully completed their transaction, Kendall made a call to a Courier Company to arrange for its transport to the United States. To prevent any accidents during transit, they decided to accompany the Thousand Buddha Stone Pagoda.
Kendall left, and the 1.1 billion RMB had not yet arrived in Chen Haoxuan's personal bank account. Chen Haoxuan did not worry; after all, it was 1.1 billion RMB, such a large amount would not arrive so quickly. Additionally, the bank needed time to investigate whether the source of the funds was legitimate.
Everything was settled; now they just waited for the 1.1 billion RMB to arrive. Chen Haoxuan had already planned that once the money was in his account, he would take Chen Yina back to Chen Family Village and treat all the villagers to a meal. Furthermore, he wanted his family to see that he was not a failure; he wanted to show them his newfound wealth.
