573 First Meeting


    Trantor: Dragon Boat Trantion Editor: Dragon Boat Trantion


    Zhou Chao was lounging in a recliner, video chatting with Jiang Li.


    “Brother Chao, you’re saying you own a superrge gold mine in Russia?” Jiang Li felt like she was dreaming. It hadn’t been long since they parted ways, yet Zhou Chao’s fortune had grown significantly again.


    “Yeah, we’ve already surveyed the specific reserves, and the production value is roughly around 680 billion US dors!”


    “Oh my goodness, that’s so much! Can the old Russians allow you to mine the gold with peace of mind?” Jiang Li’s perspective was quite broad, and she had some understanding of this matter. She knew that such important resources as gold wouldn’t be easily taken away by an outsider, especially in such huge quantities.


    After all, the saying goes, “In prosperous times, there are ancient treasures; in chaotic times, there is gold.” This alone proves the importance of gold.


    “They definitely won’t let me have it my way, so I brought in two scapegoats!” Zhou Chao smirked, then briefly exined his recent arrangements and ns to Jiang Li.


    Jiang Li chuckled after listening, “Brother Chao, you’re so bad, selling people out and still making them count your money for you!”


    “It’s not my fault. I didn’t force them; they volunteered themselves.” Zhou Chao looked a bit aggrieved.


    “Tsk!” Jiang Li rolled her eyes at Zhou Chao.


    Shanjun appeared out of nowhere and crawled onto Zhou Chao’sp, gazing at Zhou Chao with adorable eyes, letting out a couple of soft howls before resting on Zhou Chao’s thigh.


    On the other end of the call, Jiang Li also heard the little guy’s cries and curiously asked, “Huh, Brother Chao, what’s making that noise? It sounds so cute!”


    “Here, take a look!” Zhou Chao lifted the little guy, who was resting on his thigh, to show Jiang Li.


    The disturbed little one barked helplessly at Zhou Chao, twisting its body in the air.


    Upon seeing the little guy, Jiang Li’s eyes lit up, “Wow, it’s a little tiger, and it’s white! So adorable! Brother Chao, where did this little tigere from?”


    Jiang Li’s eyes lit up, fixated firmly on the little creature.


    “It was when we were at the gold mine before; this little guy just showed up on its own. It startled me at the time,” Zhou Chao exined the situation, but Jiang Li’s response was loudughter.


    “Brother Chao, you crack me up! If it were a snake, you’d probably faint on the spot,” Jiang Li teased with a heartyugh.


    “Humph, is your husband such a coward?” Zhou Chao looked proud.


    “Brother Chao, could you move your big face away? I want to see the little guy.”


    “Sigh, I didn’t expect to fall out of favor so quickly.” Zhou Chao sighed heavily and then turned the camera to focus on little Shanjun.


    The scene shifted to the afternoon, where Zhou Chao was leisurely fishing by theke with Lin Wu, Lev, and others.


    “Boss, looks like they’re noting today!” Lin Wu stared at the still waters of theke and suddenly spoke up.


    “Yeah, let’s go!”


    Lin Wu nodded, put down his fishing rod, and headed towards the vi. Halfway there, one of his subordinates ran up to him hastily.


    “Boss, a luxurious convoy has arrived, all top-tier luxury cars, and they’ll be at the ranch in no more than three minutes.”


    The town and the ranch were connected by only one road, and the end point was also here at the ranch, so the visitors were definitelying for them.


    Hearing this, Zhou Chao’s face lit up with a smile. “I got it. Tell the brothers to be on alert!” With that, he turned around and quickly headed back to theke.


    “Boss, Boss, they’re here!” Lin Wu quickly caught up to Zhou Chao, excitement evident in his voice.


    “Who’s here? Why are you so excited?” Zhou Chao asked calmly.


    “I’m not sure, but the people below said they’re all luxury cars, so I guess it’s Abduh.”


    Zhou Chao nodded calmly, then saw his fishing float suddenly sink into the water. He quickly lifted the fishing rod, and a silver salmon was pulled out of the water in an instant.


    “It’s hooked!”


    Handing the fishing rod to Lev, Zhou Chao turned and walked towards the vi. Just as he reached the open space in front of the vi, he saw Abduh and several others getting out of their cars.


    The figure of a middle-aged man caught Zhou Chao’s eye. Seeing the obsequious demeanor of Abduh beside him, Zhou Chao knew that this person was not ordinary.


    “Zhou, are you here to pick us up?” Abduh waved when he saw Zhou Chao in the open space.


    Zhou Chao gave a few instructions to Lin Wu and then walked towards Abduh and the others, a faint smile ying on his face.


    “Abduh, why are you here again, and who is this?” Zhou Chao pretended to be puzzled, his gaze also resting on the middle-aged man.


    “Zhou, my brother, let me introduce you. This is my uncle, Archie!” Abduh introduced warmly.


    “Hello, Mr. Zhou!” Archie greeted warmly in fluent Huaxia.


    “Hello, Mr. Archie, I didn’t expect you to speak Chinese so fluently!” Zhou Chao was also surprised. If he hadn’t looked at Archie’s appearance, he would have thought he was a native Huaxia speaker.


    “Of course, you know, our Camel Country and China are good brothers.” Archie immediately yed the friendship card..
