Star Dome Railway's live streaming room

Topa turned around and saw Feicui standing there with a faint smile on her face. Zhangzhang seemed to have heard something strange. After seeing Feicui, she trembled all over and huddled behind Topa, rubbing her shoulders.

Topa turned around with some surprise and looked at Jadeite. She noticed that Jadeite was holding a signed document in her hand, and it was obvious that she had just completed a task.

Jade put the documents into her bag and stepped over. "A small ice ball in exchange for a favor from the Star Train - for the department, it's a sure win."

After walking up to Topal, Emerald reached out and gently stroked Topal's cheek, as if she was touching a precious treasure.

"Long time no see, little Yelina," she said softly, with genuine emotion in her eyes.

Topa felt the warm touch of Jade and blushed slightly, revealing a shy smile.

[Su Chang: This little dimensional piggy bank seems to be frightened. ]

[March 7: It does seem like there is a strong sense of oppression! ]

【Xing: Oh my god, this is my favorite episode. 】

[Xi'er: Hmm...it sounds like you guys helped me. I don't know what happened specifically, but thank you anyway!]

[Xing: Hehe..it seems like we haven’t had time to do anything yet. ]

"I have been looking forward to working with you, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon."

Jade gently raised her hand, and the emerald stone in her hand emitted a faint green light, as if resonating with her. Her voice was soft but firm, and she said, "You can tell me anything, just like before."

Topa smiled and responded, "Ms. Jade, long time no see. I am honored to have the opportunity to work with you."

Feicui shook her head gently, a smile flashing in her eyes: "You are still so reluctant. Forget about the superior-subordinate relationship and treat me as your equal. You can omit unnecessary titles - such as "Ms." and "you."

Topa scratched his head a little embarrassedly and explained, "I'm sorry, it's still hard for me to adapt to it for a while. After all, you... you are a senior."

Feicui laughed, her laughter was as clear and sweet as a silver bell: "But now, we are all the "Stone Heart Ten", Topa, I just need you to be at your best. After all, the upcoming negotiations cannot afford to make mistakes." Her eyes were full of encouragement and trust. "As perceptive as you are, you must have seen the real intention of this meeting a long time ago, right? "

Topa confidently analyzed, "It must be that old Odi acted on his own initiative and wanted to test the waters before the company and Pinocchio officially held talks."

Jade nodded slightly, acknowledging Topar's speculation. Then, she continued to ask: "Yes, but this is better. Do you know why?"

Topa answered without hesitation: "If we can reach some kind of consensus with Old Odi in advance and find out the other party's bottom line, future negotiations will be much smoother. This is the surface level."

Emerald smiled and responded, "That's right, but the unspeakable thing is... through the behavior of the Clover family head, we were able to capture a signal: the five major families may not be as united as the "Ode to Harmony" sings."

"As long as the influence of 'harmony' has not penetrated deeply into the bones, personal desires will always occupy a place. We are lucky that at least in Pinocchio, no big man has a high enough voice to completely lose his personal desires."

"Just like the open and covert struggles in the company, the so-called "unity" of the five major families..." She sneered: "Now that the dream master has lost his position, it is only a slogan."

【March 7: So, even though we are all in harmony, we are not that united.】

【Yukong: Fate is ultimately defined by humans, and as long as one is human, he or she will have selfish desires. Even among the so-called harmonious people, they are not completely of one mind and one body.】

【Walter: That’s the reason, which is why people often fail to achieve their goals.】

[Sambo (?): Yeah, this is really Oak falling, Odi is full, hehe, internal fighting is so much fun. ]

Topa said: "After the fall of the Oak family, Old Odi's side became the largest force in Pinocchio. Even if we only calculate based on the order of succession, he is the one with the longest tenure and the most seniority among all the current family heads."

Jade nodded: "Yes, so for the next meeting, we must proceed according to the strategy we have discussed. Just like playing a game of chess, every move must be considered according to the situation."

"Of course. The three steps of negotiation: listen first; probe second; and finally show your sword. This is what you taught me."

Emerald smiled. "That's very clear—but in the Yalilo case, you seemed to have switched the order."

Topa winked mischievously and said, "This is my personal feeling."

[Sambo (?): Yes, yes, that’s how negotiations work. You only need to teach the formula, but there are many things to consider in actual operation.]

[Silver Wolf: Laughing to death, classic formula.]

【Fireworks: Joy.】

At this time, a waiter came over, bowed respectfully to the two, and then said, "I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation, but the owner is ready to meet with the representative of the Strategic Investment Department."

Jade stood up, straightened her clothes, then turned to look at Topa and said encouragingly: "It's time to work. Cheer up and go meet the "supporting role" in a high position." Topa also stood up, and Jade patted her on the shoulder and said earnestly:

"Remember our goal: to create opportunities for companies to settle in Pinocchio. The gold dust has already made a cut, and you and I... must tear it apart completely."

The two followed the waiter, pushed open the door in front, and came to the rest area.

There were two luxurious semicircular leather sofas in the spacious and bright reception room. Sitting on the sofa in the middle was a short old man with a bun and sunglasses. He crossed his legs leisurely with a faint smile on his face. When the two walked in, he suddenly let out a low and hoarse laugh:

"Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho! Two smart and beautiful ladies, welcome aboard my ship, the "Phoenix Stone""

"Come on, take a seat! We need to have a good chat!"

The two looked at each other, then slowly walked to the sofa opposite and sat down.

After the two of them sat down, Old Odi spoke first, "Wow, wow, wow! Welcome, ladies, welcome aboard! Blame me for not taking good care of you. Have you been waiting outside for so long?"

【Su Chang: Uh...what a strange laugh.】

[Xing: It sounds a bit like a catchphrase, but this kind of laughter... is a bit unpleasant to the ear. It's hard to imagine that it comes from a family head.]

[Jizi: Xing, don’t say this in public. ]

【Xing: Oh oh oh...】
