Lin Xiong said smugly, "Don't worry, Wei Lie will take care of that kid and send him to your bed!"

Lin Youliang's face lit up with excitement, he was filled with anticipation.

Although it was the first time he had met the boy, he could tell at a glance that he was an absolute gem!

He's tasted all sorts of beautiful women, but he's never tasted such an exceptional boy!

This time, it's finally a fresh experience!

Director Lin brought a bottle of fine wine and came to find Wei Lie.

"Director Lin, what a rare guest!" Wei Lie invited Director Lin into the reception room: "Oh, what fine wine! This heavy rain has destroyed many wineries, and this good wine is becoming increasingly rare."

Director Lin: "This is a treasure I've kept for many years. Others wouldn't be willing to part with it. But since President Wei is one of us, it's only natural that we share it."

Wei Lie said with a smile, "Then I won't stand on ceremony."

After a brief business exchange, Director Lin said, "I've come to visit General Manager Wei today to advise him not to do business with Lin Xiong for the time being."

"Oh? What does Director Lin mean?" Wei Lie feigned ignorance.

"That Lin Xiong is nothing but a nouveau riche. He got lucky and made some money, so he became arrogant and forgot his place," Director Lin said meaningfully. "He can't handle this batch of grain. Even if he did, he wouldn't be able to keep it. It might even bring trouble upon himself."

"Director Lin, can you point me in the right direction?" Wei Lie asked with a smile as he poured Director Lin a drink.

“Although I am the director of the shelter, to put it bluntly, I am just a dog of those above me. But even dogs have dignity!” A glint flashed in Director Lin’s eyes, revealing his unwillingness to accept defeat.

In the past, he would have accepted his fate.

But now we are in a chaotic world, and it will only get more chaotic in the future. Who knows when the upper echelons will start fighting and the lower echelons will be in a state of warlordism and regional separatism.

What kind of prince will Xiangning?

Why can't he become the de facto ruler of K City?

As long as he holds this batch of grain, people will naturally be willing to follow him.

Wei Lie understood; Director Lin wanted to take over the position himself.

interesting.

Things haven't even completely fallen into chaos yet, and the people below already have so many thoughts on their minds.

Wouldn't things be even more chaotic up there?

"What benefits can Director Lin offer me?" Wei Lie asked.

"I'm not particularly capable, but I have one advantage: I have many friends," Director Lin said smugly. "I was among the first to get protective suits and also among the first to get the latest information. I've already booked two 10,000-ton cargo ships with the higher-ups. If Director Wei is willing to give me this batch of grain, I can give you one of those ships."

Wei Lie's fingers suddenly tightened: "Is this true?"

“Of course!” Director Lin said meaningfully, “Those two people up there might not even have the same connections as me.”

Wei Lie leaned back.

This Director Lin is truly a master of disguise!

There are so many channels.

It seems we need to maintain this line well; it might come in handy in the future.

"Deal." Wei Lie raised his glass and clinked it with Director Lin's: "As for Lin Xiong, I hope Director Lin can put in a good word for me."

"No problem." Director Lin clinked glasses with Wei Lie, his eyes narrowing, looking just like an old fox.

As soon as Director Lin left, Wei Lie told Mu Jiuyue about it.

Mu Jiuyue's eyes lit up: "This Director Lin is amazing! Now that we have a 10,000-ton cargo ship, we can hide on the ship when the land is completely swallowed up in the future. This deal is worthwhile!"

Isn't that a great deal?

She only spent a few thousand dollars and got a 10,000-ton cargo ship. She made a killing, okay?

"Then it's settled," Wei Lie said. "I'll have Director Lin invite Lin Xiong over for a meal. The rest is up to you."

After saying that, Wei Lie handed an address to Mu Jiuyue.

This is the location where Secretary Cao found out Lin Xiong's supplies were stored.

It was in an air-raid shelter right outside the shelter.

Since these were all things that couldn't be eaten or drunk, he didn't specifically hire anyone to guard them; there were only three to five people patrolling and watching over them.

Nobody bothered to look at it.

What's the point of having this thing if there's no electricity or internet?

"Okay." Mu Jiuyue accepted the address, got up and left: "We'll move tonight."

That evening, Director Lin indeed invited Lin Xiong over, with Wei Lie accompanying him, and they had dinner together.

Lin Xiong had originally intended to play hard to get, but since Director Lin had spoken, Lin Xiong obediently came over.

Just look at Wei Lie's eyes; they're not his eyes, they're full of dissatisfaction.

Wei Lie pretended not to see it; after tonight, Lin Xiong would have nothing left.

late at night.

A dark figure silently appeared outside the air-raid shelter.

The rain was heavy and torrential, and no one was willing to go out on patrol, so naturally no one noticed the presence of the dark figure.

"Come on, let's drink! This awful weather, when will it ever end?" someone grumbled inside. "Everyone else is in shelters, living comfortably in big houses, sleeping with clean girls, while we're suffering here!"

"Let's drink, let's drink. What can we do? We offended the boss. Oh well, at least we have food and drink. It's much better than those who do hard labor."

"Exactly, stop complaining. At worst, we can steal some stuff from inside and sell it to buy alcohol!"

"Forget it! It's all worthless junk. I don't know what the boss's purpose is in storing this stuff. Wouldn't it be better to buy more meat and grain? I secretly took a notebook out to sell, but no one wanted five pounds of grain! It's all garbage!"

"Who can argue with that! Nowadays, apart from the truly wealthy, who still uses these things? Grain is still the most practical thing."

"Drink, drink."

Mu Jiuyue waited patiently until the group was quite drunk and she was sure there was no more noise inside before she quietly slipped inside.

Several men lay on the ground, and Mingting was so drunk that he couldn't even open his eyes.

That saves her the trouble of doing it herself.

The key to the warehouse was on them. They took out the key, opened the warehouse door, and found rows and rows of various supplies filling the cave to the brim.

Besides those industrial products, there were also some fabrics and cotton.

There are also a few hand-operated spinning machines; that's interesting.

Mu Jiuyue waved her hand and took everything away from the air-raid shelter.

Room after room was opened, and room after room was taken away.

An hour later, the place was bustling about like a mouse moving house.

After doing all this, Mu Jiuyue erased all traces and quietly left.

The torrential rain was the perfect tool for concealing tracks; in just a few minutes, it washed away her footprints completely.

Back at the shelter, Mu Jiuyue glanced at Villa No. 6, her eyes darting around before she turned and entered her spatial dimension, changing into a cool white dress.

Put on a wig.

Just standing there, she's a stunningly beautiful woman!

Mu Jiuyue stood at the entrance of Villa No. 6.

"Who are you?" someone stopped her.

"It was Young Master Lin who sent me," Mu Jiuyue replied charmingly. "If you don't believe me, go ask him."
