Chapter 317 - Jiang Shangyu Boiled the Rain on the River



It was sprinkling in Huating.

Like transparent silk threads, the light rain filled with heaven and earth, was falling disorderly. The rain gradually influenced the whole city and the Huangpu River that passed by it.

The river water flowed gently.

The light rain fell into the river so that it rippled gently.

The rain fell leisurely and gently. The whole city was drizzly in the almost carefree rain curtain.

A small boat was floating on the river.

It was the smallest sightseeing boat on the Huangpu River.

The boat moved from west to east. Someone sat in the bow and drank tea quietly.

Seen from above, the city in the rain, the river in the city, the boat on the river, and the people on the boat were quiet and beautiful, like a simple and elegant scroll in the bustling area.

Li Tianlan was looking at everything through the clean and bright French windows.

A woman was sitting on the sofa behind him.

About 30, the woman was average-looking and elegant. She wore a black professional dress and smiled politely and elegantly. She looked sincere and dignified.

Li Tianlan stood with his back to her and looked at the rain outside the window. He seemed to be stupefied.

It was the reception room on the top floor of the Flourishing Age Financial Group. Li Tianlan went there that day to sign a cooperation agreement with Han Donglou on behalf of the East Emperor Palace.

The woman sitting behind Li Tianlan was Han Donglou’s secretary.

Han Donglou was at the meeting.

It was not that Han Donglou deliberately neglected Li Tianlan. It was said that the meeting began the night before, and it had been going until then. Even Han Donglou’s secretary had emerged from the meeting room to receive Li Tianlan after his arrival.

They had already attached a great importance to him.

“Mr. Li, your tea is getting cold,” The secretary said with a chuckle.

Li Tianlan waved his hand and looked back at the secretary, asking, “How much longer would Boss Han need?”

“It should be soon.”

The secretary looked at the watch and gave a perfect smile. “Boss Han has already told the Legal Affairs Office to draw up a contract. You can get the investment of the Flourishing Age Fund this noon at the latest.”

Li Tianlan nodded and said yes.

He had already communicated with all the people in the East Emperor Palace. Everyone thought they had no reason to reject the investment.

If any force wanted to develop, money might not be the most important, but it was the most basic. As one of the four forces of the young generation, the East Emperor Palace was too monotonous, with less than ten people and no department. And, it did not have its social networks, intelligence system, and financial source to support its continuous development. Instead of a force, it was a small community that could separate at any time.

It had not been a problem before.

Upon graduation, after the final maneuver, if the East Emperor Palace could win, it would become the new free force as the top of the two academies. Until then, various departments and organizations were indispensable.

1.5 billion sounded like a lot, but for any new force, it was a starting fund, instead of a colossal sum of money.

Li Tianlan decided to accept Han Donglou’s investment because of the Gold-lettered signboard of the Flourishing Age Fund. The Han family was a neutral family with the most abundant capital. As long as he took the initial investment, it meant that he would have more chances to cooperate with the Han family.

As long as Li Tianlan and the East Emperor Palace showed enough potential, the Han family would increase their investment. For the East Emperor Palace, sufficient funds could ensure a rapid development.

As long as he led the East Emperor Palace to get through the maneuver, plus with the Gold-lettered signboard of the Flourishing Age Fund, he would get more investment, not even limited to money.

The premise was for Li Tianlan to be strong enough.

Perhaps many people doubted that Li Tianlan was unworthy of being No. 9 on the Divine List.

However, Li Tianlan was full of confidence.

He was far less powerful than in the final battle of Heaven Capital, but he had a broader future with stronger potential.

When he received an investment from Han Donglou, he did not think that he lost money and Han Donglou would lose money.

He even thought that it was one of Han Donglou’s most successful investments.

Li Tianlan looked down at the watch.

It was 9:50 am.

He frowned. As he was about to speak, the secretary’s cell phone rang.

The secretary put through on the phone, listened for a while, and then replied.

“Mr. Li, the meeting is over. Boss Han will come over to meet you soon.”

The secretary stood up, and her smile grew softer.

“All right,” Li Tianlan replied.

He rolled his eyes and saw a group of people coming out of the meeting room through the glass of the reception room.

It was a group of about 20 people.

There were men and women from young to middle age. Their eyes were shining with excitement and solemnness. The whole group of people stepped out of the meeting room hurriedly.

Han Donglou, who was steady and resolute, walked behind them.

Han Xinyan, who looked quiet and sturdy, was a step behind Han Donglou.

Another young woman walked side by side with Han Donglou. They were talking about something with calmness.

Li Tianlan slightly narrowed his eyes and looked at her without speaking.

She was a young woman who was about 24 or 25.

The moment he saw her, Li Tianlan thought that he had seen Qin Weibai in a trance.

She was slightly shorter than Qin Weibai.

Her appearance was slightly inferior.

But even so, she was particularly beautiful.

Similarly, she was sharp, delicate, and confident.

However, she was different.

The woman standing next to Han Donglou was proud.

It was visible that she looked down upon all people. She was not cold, but she appeared to be indifferent because of her arrogance.

Indifference and arrogance were also confidence.

She looked calmly at Han Donglou, who walked side by side with Han Donglou. She was more arrogant than him.

From his sight, the woman went out of the meeting room, shook hands with Han Donglou, and then turned around.

The group of people who first walked out of the meeting room followed the woman, surrounded her, and went to the elevator.

They accompanied her to go through the meeting room.

She suddenly stopped and turned to look at Li Tianlan in the reception room.

They looked at each other through the glass.

Li Tianlan was indifferent and fearless.

The woman turned around blankly and continued to the elevator.

She swayed and turned around. As her silver high-heeled shoes hit the ground, a clear voice seemed to sound in their hearts.

Han Xinyan walked around the woman and sent her downstairs.

Han Donglou walked into the reception room.

“Who is that?” Li Tianlan asked.

“What, do you have any idea?”

Han Donglou sat on the sofa with a smile and waved his hand to beckon the secretary to leave.

“She is hostile to me,” Li Tianlan said.

Although they stared at each other temporarily, he could perceive the sharpness from her eyes.

“It’s normal.”

Han Donglou cut a cigar with a smile, “You brought so much pressure to her fiancé, and dragged her sister-in-law into my car. Why should she be kind to you?”

“Fiancé?”

Li Tianlan blinked and sat opposite to Han Donglou.

Han Donglou passed a cigar to Li Tianlan.

Li Tianlan shook his head and took out a cigarette.

“She is Wang Shengxiao’s fiancée and my partner this time.”

Han Donglou had a few puffs of the cigar. He said in a deep voice, “She is the Eldest Miss Tang of the Wang family of Beihai, the future master of the Wang family of Beihai.”

“What about...”

Li Tianlan was surprised. Thinking of that proud woman, he recalled Song Ci. He asked, “What about Song Ci?”

“Even if you can have more than one woman, why can’t Wang Shengxiao? Tang Shi and Song Ci are the two most outstanding ladies of the young generation. In some aspects, they are more brilliant than Wang Yuetong.”

Han Donglou said with a smile, “Compared with Song Ci, who appeared two or three years ago, Tang Shi was trained as the economic director of the Wang family of Beihai when she was young.”

“Amazing.”

Li Tianlan took a drag and whispered.

She was good at Martial Arts.

She was also good in the financial and commercial fields.

“She’s indeed awesome.”

Han Donglou said as he nodded, “In the Snow Country, there was civil strife in the Polar Ground Alliance. Last night, an oligarchic family was exterminated. Tang Shi came here today, aiming at combining with the Flourishing Age Fund to go against the trouble from the Snow Country.”

“What about that investment?”

Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows.

The Wang family of Beihai cooperated with the Flourishing Age Fund to go against the trouble, so they would definitely mobilize a large amount of cash.

“That’s not a horse of the same color.”

Han Donglou shook his head, “I can give you 1.5 billion at any time. It doesn’t matter.”

The secretary returned once more.

A shrewd and middle-aged man in a suit followed her.

The man placed the folder in his hand next to Han Donglou and bent down, saying, “Boss Han, I’ve drawn up the contract. It’ll take effect after the signature.”

Han Donglou nodded casually and handed over the contract to Li Tianlan, saying, “This is our contract. All the people of the East Emperor Palace should sign it. I’ll provide 1.5 billion before this afternoon. Look at it. If there is no doubt, I’ll be the first investor in the East Emperor Palace.”

Li Tianlan opened the folder.

The contract was thick because there were many copies.

A single copy only had two pages.

It stated that the Flourishing Age Financial Group held 10% of the East Emperor Palace’s interests.

Meanwhile, it emphasized its power in the territory of the East Emperor Palace in the future.

In addition, all were supplements to the Flourishing Age Financial Group’s follow-up investment in the East Emperor Palace.

If Li Tianlan could survive after the final maneuver, the Flourishing Age Financial Group would invest another 500 million. If the East Emperor Palace could win the final maneuver, it would add to 3 billion.

Sadly, the f*cking contract even stated that if Li Tianlan could get married to Dongcheng Rushi or Wang Yuetong, it would make an additional investment.

Li Tianlan twitched his mouth and read the contract. He could imagine Li Baitian and the others’ expressions after seeing that contract.

He put away the contract and said blankly, “It’s no problem.”

“The investment will be paid before this afternoon.”

Han Donglou said, “From now on, you’re one of our investees. To a limited extent, the Flourishing Age Fund will give you a certain support, not including the Six for Zhongzhou State.”

Li Tianlan nodded.

He could understand that support, but...

“Aren’t you afraid that the Six gets back at you?”

Li Tianlan asked, then continued, “After all, my identity is sensitive. If the Wang family of Beihai and Kunlun City know that you made an investment in the East Emperor Palace...”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Han Donglou said faintly, “So what? What I’ve invested will probably become forces with experts of the Invincible Realm. It’s a business transaction. It’s my money, and I’m willing to give it to you so that nobody can talk nonsense.”

“They’ll talk more than nonsense,” Li Tianlan said blandly.

“You don’t understand.”

Han Donglou said calmly, “Although the Han family has no experts of the Invincible Realm, nobody can ignore the power we hold. It’s hard for the Han family to rise in the first years. I have money and means, but I don’t have enough power. I’m like a child walking downtown with gold in his arms. At that time, some people wanted to take advantage of the Han family.”

“How did you do that?” Li Tianlan asked.

“I?”

As a ferocious look flashed away, Han Donglou said, “I set off a financial storm inside the Zhongzhou State, from Xiangjiang to Huating. The Han family kept a foothold in the Zhongzhou State. Besides the Wang family of Beihai and the Giant Group, we also suffered heavy losses. But since then, a few forces dared to interfere with us.

“Later, the Han family threw money and invested the Six. After so many years, I have some friends in the Six. When necessary, I can have a voice in the Six. It’s my power. I spent a lot of money, but I gained power. It never exists, but it is everywhere, like...”

“Like the Seventh Group.”

Li Tianlan said faintly, “A neutral group?”

“There is no such statement.”

Han Donglou shook his head with a smile, “But now, the Han family doesn’t need to yield to anyone unless we are willing.”

Li Tianlan nodded.

One with absolute fortune could fear nothing.

The Han family had no expert of the Invincible Realm, but they were rich.

If he went insane and threw hundreds of billions to buy a life, not to mention ordinary killers, most experts of the Invincible Realm would be willing to work for Han Donglou to take his or her life for the money’s sake.

“So...”

Li Tianlan patted the folder on the table.

“Best wishes for a happy cooperation!” He said.

“Best wishes for a happy cooperation!”

Han Donglou reached out and shook hands with Li Tianlan.

Li Tianlan took the folder and walked to the window.

The rain was falling faster and faster outside the window.

Looking down from a high place, Li Tianlan could see everything on the river.

The ripples kept spreading, ring upon ring.

The boat on the river floated quietly.

It was still raining.

The people on board were drinking tea.

Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes.

He gradually settled down.

If he signed that contract, the East Emperor Palace would have a real start after the maneuver was over.

The Li family would have a real start.

“Although the investment is not much...”

Li Tianlan said, “Boss Han, thank you all the same.”

Han Donglou smiled and said calmly, “It’s been a lot. I don’t want to waste money. After the maneuver is over, I will probably invest more.”

“You surely will,”

Li Tianlan looked at the rain outside the window and whispered.

Han Donglou laughed and said nothing.

Li Tianlan would not know why Boss Han, who did not want to waste money, gave him 1.5 billion.

The Flourishing Age Fund indeed invested on the East Emperor Palace, the Phantom Palace, the Three Thousand World and the Jilei Mountain.

However, Li Tianlan did not know that about the Three billion that the Flourishing Age Fund Han Donglou had invested in the Three Thousand World... he only gave Three Thousand World less than one billion.

Li Tianlan had an investment of 1.5 billion.

He got 1.5 billion.

The Three Thousand World had an investment of three billion, but it only received less than one billion.

Three billion was too much.

However, there was an essential difference between the staged investment and the one-time investment.

“Just be confident.”

Han Donglou smiled and patted Li Tianlan’s shoulder, “It’s good to be confident, but I want to warn you not to look down upon Wang Shengxiao and Gu Hanshan, as well as Jiang Shangyu.”

The boat on the river was almost opposite to the Flourishing Age Building.

Li Tianlan shook his head and said, “I won’t look down on anyone.”

Han Donglou looked at Li Tianlan, and suddenly asked, “Are you stressed?”

“I’m okay.”

Although Han Donglou behaved strangely, Li Tianlan stayed calm and collected.

Han Donglou looked at Li Tianlan.

He looked at his emotionless face.

He did not know how to understand Li Tianlan.

After they met for several times, he could feel the depression in his heart.

As the heir of the Li family, he only had one way in his life.

Now, he walked through the starting point.

He was confronted by the Wang family of Beihai and the heir of Kunlun City.

He would probably face the whole Wang family of Beihai, Kunlun City, the Jiang family of South America, and more enemies.

Such a life...

“Have you been happy?”

Han Donglou abruptly asked a meaningless question.

Li Tianlan stayed silent for a while.

“Yes,” he answered.

Han Donglou smiled and pointed out the window, meaningfully said, “When the day comes that you can stand here rightfully, you’ll be really happy.”

He turned to the door of the reception area.

Li Tianlan stood quietly in the same place and looked out the window.

It was close to the highest point of Huating.

Standing there and looking out, he was looking down.

In a haze of misty rain, he seemed to trod the whole world underfoot.

“Boss Qin,” Li Tianlan suddenly called.

Han Donglou turned around with a doubt.

“How about borrowing a piece of glass from you?”

Li Tianlan reached out and scratched in front of the French windows.

Silently, the whole glass shattered.

The sword intent quietly came and went to nothingness with the broken glass.

The cold wind and cold rain instantly poured into the reception area because of the lack of shelter hundreds of meters above the ground.

Li Tianlan stared at the boat on the river.

He took a step forward and jumped from the building in Huating, which was higher than the Oriental Pearl Tower.

Han Xinyan, who walked into the meeting room, subconsciously let out a cry.

Li Tianlan rose to the sky.

He was not falling.

He was soaring!

The sky was gloomy and stormy.

Li Tianlan’s body tore the whistling wind apart like a sharp sword. He leaped down to the Huangpu River from a height of hundreds of meters.

In the wind and rain, his white figure was like a beam of flowing light, with the most repressed madness.

There was a small boat on the Huangpu River.

The tea drinkers were on the bow and looking at Firmament.

A white shadow appeared above him. He stepped on the bow in the wind and rain over the sky.

“Boom!”

With a dull sound, the whole boat suddenly shook.

Meanwhile, the tea drinker on the bow also shook.

The boat teetered, but there was no wave at the bottom of the boat.

The ripples continued to spread.

All the waves seemed to be suppressed by the figure, who was drinking tea on the bow.

His face turned pale with a bitter smile at corners of the mouth.

“He appeared handsomely on the scene.” He said, looking at Li Tianlan dropping from the sky.

Li Tianlan stood on the bow and said flatly, “How did you know that I would be in the Flourishing Age Building?”

“I guessed it. Do you believe it, or not?”

Jiang Shangyu, who was drinking tea alone on the boat, looked at Li Tianlan with a smile.

A trace of blood spurted from the corner of his mouth.

“Boom!”

In an instant, with the boat as the center, the water within a radius of hundreds of meters in the Huangpu River suddenly boiled.

White waves wildly rose high into the air, as if to overturn the entire river.

Only the boat was floating quietly.

Jiang Shangyu on the boat picked up the teapot.

The raindrops on the river gradually poured into the teapot.

As he flicked and kindled a fire, fine rain and tea water were getting hot.

Jiang Shangyu boiled the rain on the river.

“Drink some tea.”

Jiang Shangyu, who appeared and disappeared mysteriously, poured Li Tianlan a cup of tea. He said with a smile, “We should have talked about it at an earlier time. Here is the right place.”
