Chapter 386: How Much Is This Worth!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Bro, do I really have to go to the military academy?” Zhou Chao hung up the phone, and Guo Yan looked at him pitifully.

“Well, you must go. Tomorrow, I’ll go back to Fuzhou with you to fill out the application. It will be easier witharound for all the checks and stuff.” Zhou Chao blocked any possibility of Guo Yan going back on her own.

If he let her go by herself, she might apply to other schools. He would supervise her application.

Seeing that there was no room for resistance, Guo Yan pouted unhappily at Zhou Chao.

“Alright!” She said and then lay down on the seat, looking utterly dejected.

Zhou Chao gave her a displeased look before turning and leaving the playroom, heading upstairs.

“Boss, how did Xiao Yan do on her exam?” As soon as he reached the upper floor, Lin Wu, who was anxiously pacing in circles, asked.

“Don’t worry, she did well, got 688 points. She should have no problem getting into the military academy.”

“That’s great!”

“Give Dole a call and tell him we’re flying to Fog City tomorrow. Have him arrange everything.”

“Sure thing, boss!” Lin Wu turned and walked away.

At this point, Guo Yan also slowly walked up from downstairs. It seemed like she hadn’t fully processed the news of her going to the military academy. She walked to the sofa and lay down directly.

“Big bro, maybe I should go back by myself tomorrow. Will it be too much trouble for you to cwith me?”

“What’s the trouble? We have a private plane, no need to worry about any trouble!” Zhou Chao’s words once again dispelled her last trace of hope.

“Okay, big bro!”

“Mmm…” A faint smile appeared on Zhou Chao’s lips.

At that moment, Lin Wu had finished his call.

“Boss, everything is arranged. We can take off tomorrow.”

“Alright, got it. You can go rest for now.”

“Understood, Boss!” Lin Wu nodded slightly and turned to leave.

Glancing at the time, it was already 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Zhou Chao pondered for a moment, then stood up from the couch and headed upstairs.

Midway, he looked at Guo Yan lying on the sofa and said, “Do you want sfruits or drinks? There are sin the fridge; help yourself.”

“I got it!”

With a smile, Zhou Chao headed upstairs.

Upon reaching his study, Zhou Chao decided to give Ling Chen a call. He just realized that there were still many tasks to be organized. If he were to delay his return to Fog City for a few days and forget about these tasks, it wouldn’t be good.

As soon as he dialed, Ling Chen picked up on the first ring.

“Boss, good afternoon!”

“Well, If you’re not busy at the moment. I have something to discuss.”

“I’m not busy, I’m in the office. Go ahead, boss!”

“It’s like this, I have a Hanfu stuunder my wing, and they’ll be coming to Modu soon from Jinling. When the tcomes, arrange an office space at the Global Center for them and also their place to stay. There will be five of them, all women.”

“Alright, 1’11 have it arranged today.”

“By the way, how are the previous arrangements going?”

“Boss, are you talking about the KE and Lei Du matters?”

“Yeah.”

“It’s all set up. Currently, John is in charge of the KE law firm, and we’ve established a good relationship. Miles has also entered Lei Du Group and seems to be doing quite well.”

“Occasionally, give them a call, keep in touch, and make sure they don’t get too carried away.”

“Understood, boss!”

“Another thing is regarding the DA plagiarism issue. You can check the situation online. 1 plan to leverage Lei Du Group to confront them. Start collecting relevant plagiarism data. Also, inform Miles and have him do sresearch within Lei Du Group to see if there’s a possibility of collaborating with our domestic Hanfu clothing. After all, the enemy of our enemy is our friend. I believe Lei Du would be willing.”

“Boss, are you suggesting promoting a collaboration between Lei Du Group and us to produce our Hanfu clothing to counter DA?”

“Yeah, and more than that. I want to make smoves in the stock market, get KE involved, sue DA for copyright infringement to stir up public opinion internationally. With our approach from the stock market and Lei Du Group’s involvement, I aim to take a big piece of the pie. Do you understand what I mean?”

Ling Chen quickly considered the feasibility of the plan in his mind and concluded that there was a good chance to benefit from DA and promote their own cultural clothing at the stime. It could be a win-win situation.

“Boss, rest assured, I’ll discuss the plan with Miles and John as soon as possible. You can expect good news from us!” Ling Chen was feeling excited now, as he hadn’t made significant moves in a while.

“All right, if you have any questions, letknow.”

“Got it, boss!”

Listening to Ling Chen’s enthusiastic tone, Zhou Chao could sense that Ling Chen had been feeling stifled for quite stnow, with a lack of significant developments. It remained to be seen if they could initiate a substantial operation this time.

He stretched lazily and felt much more comfortable.

“I wonder what the process is for Xiao Yan to apply to the military academy. It should be more complicated than regular applications,” Zhou Chao thought to himself, realizing that he didn’t know much about the military academy application process.

He quickly opened his computer to search for the information.

Fortunately, he could find relevant information online. After a while, Zhou Chao let out a sigh of relief. It seemed a bit complicated, but nothing he couldn’t handle.

He took a photo of the application process with his phone and studied it carefully before finally putting his phone down, feeling reassured.

“Thas passed so quickly; I’ve been using the system for a year now,” Zhou Chao said as he took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it.

In just one year, he had reached heights that were unattainable for many people. He had acquired wealth that many envied, and he had also found a lovely and beautiful wife. His life was now ahead of 99.99% of people’s, making him a big winner in life.

Opening the system, Zhou Chao silently prayed, “System, do you have a one-year anniversary gift?”

“System, are you there? Are you on a date or something?”

“System, why aren’t you answering me?”

“System, stop pretending to be dead, cout!”

Zhou Chao kept talking, but there was no response. He had no choice but to give up on this idea.

“Well, if there’s no gift, at least I can do the daily check-in.”

“System, check-in!”

“Check-in successful! Congratulations to the host for checking in and receiving the Food Mega Pack, which includes various top-quality ingredients from around the world. Each ingredient weighs one ton and is automatically stored in the system’s warehouse!”

Zhou Chao looked at the densely packed ingredients in the system’s warehouse. There were all kinds of ingredients, she had heard of and she hadn’t. Every single one was top-notch quality.

There were even multiple varieties of rice!

His eyes started to blur as he looked at them.

After studying for a while, Zhou Chao gave up. There were just too many ingredients, and he couldn’t possibly go through them all at once. He decided to close the system for now.

“Maybe 1’11 cook something delicious tonight?” With the abundance of ingredients in the warehouse, he decided to give it a try. With his cooking skills, there might be sunexpected surprises.

With that in mind, he got up and headed downstairs. He saw that Guo Yan had already fallen asleep on the sofa, so he didn’t disturb her.

Instead, he walked into the kitchen and took out stop-quality meat and other ingredients from the system’s warehouse, including “Yellowlip Emperor Fish Maw,” the finest parts of “Bluefin Tuna,” “Spanish Manchurian Chicken,” and “Iberian Ham,” among others.

Each of these ingredients was quite valuable. For example, the Yellowlip Emperor Fish Maw cfrom a nationally protected animal, so it couldn’t be sold on the market. Only preserved Yellowlip Emperor Fish Maw could be bought and sold. During its peak, one pound of Yellowlip Emperor Fish Maw was worth 4 million yuan. It was easy to imagine how much a ton of top-grade fish maw was worth.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

It’s fair to say that the tspent preparing this meal was worth as much as buying an entire house in Modu. This gives you an idea of just how lavish it was.

Zhou Chao took out nearly a dozen top-quality ingredients, including even the Jiyang rice for cooking.

He stewed what needed to be stewed, and when the space ran out, he moved the stew pot to the western kitchen. Working on both sides simultaneously, he sped up the process.

“Bro, what delicious thing are you making? It smells so good!” Just as Zhou Chao was preparing the side dishes, Guo Yan’s voice cfrom behind.

“When did you wake up?” Zhou Chao also silently thanked himself for taking out the ingredients early; otherwise, it would have been hard to explain if Guo Yan had seen them.

“1 just woke up. I was awakened by the delicious smell!” She said and even swallowed, her voice loud enough for Zhou Chao to hear clearly.

Zhou Chao looked at her with a mischievous grin, and Guo Yan blushed and ran away, embarrassed.

“Xiao Yan, call your sister-in-law and ask her to chfor dinner!”

“Got it!”

Smiling and shaking his head, Zhou Chao continued with his work.

Guo Yan ran out of the kitchen, still savoring the aroma from earlier. She took a few deep breaths, trying to inhale the lingering fragrance in the air, and then took out her phone to call Jiang Li.

“Hello, sister-in-law, when will you finish work? Cback soon; I can’t stand it anymore!”

“What’s wrong? Did your brother bully you?”

No, you don’t know, my brother has cooked so many delicious dishes, and the aroma is so intoxicating that 1 feel like I could bite off my own tongue. It’s torture! The later you cback, the more I suffer!”

“Haha, i see. I’ll finish up and chright away!”

“Okay, I love you the most, sister-in-law. Please cback quickly!” With great excitement, Guo Yan hung up the phone.

Unable to resist any longer, she took a tissue and plugged her nostrils.

By the tJiang Li got home, it was almost 6 o’clock. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, her taste buds were hit by an unprecedented impact.

“All, sister-in-law, you’re finally back!” Guo Yan saw Jiang Li return and immediately rushed over to her.

“I was stuck in traffic just now. It smells really good. Letgo to the kitchen to see if your brother is done. You can remove the tissue from your nostrils.”

“I got it, sister-in-law!”

Jiang Li smiled, put down her bag, and headed towards the kitchen.

“You’re back! Please have a seat outside; I’ll finish cooking this dish, and then we can eat!”

“Brother Chao, why does it feel like this meal is even more delicious than the ones you used to cook?”

Zhou Chao turned around and gave a mysterious smile. “It’s a secret!”

“Whatever!”

Soon, Zhou Chao finished the last dish.

“Dinner’s ready!”
