Midsummer noon, Old Town approaching Harbor.
The road surface was slightly hot from the Sun sun, and there were very few pedestrians or vehicles.
The tall buildings on both sides are crowded together, casting a large Shadows, retaining a bit of coolness.
A black Land Rover drove smoothly into Street and parked in the parking space in front of the Morning Star Import-Export Trading Company building.
Fang Cheng stepped out of the car, closed the car door with his backhand, and walked towards the company door.
In the spacious lobby on the first floor, several clerks were hurriedly passing by holding documents.
After seeing Fang Cheng, they all stopped and bowed to him respectfully to say hello:
"Good morning, Consultant Fang."
"Good morning everyone."
Fang Cheng smiled and nodded in response, and walked straight through the hall to the special elevator.
He took out a black Magnetic Card from his pocket, swiped it in the sensing area, and then pressed the floor number key "6".
The first to third floors are the office areas where the trading company handles legitimate business.
Fourth Floor to Sixth Floor are the exclusive territory of Illumination Society.
Without the specific Magnetic Card and face verification, the elevator cannot stop at these three floors.
In addition, there are various monitoring and alarm measures, and the security level is far beyond what the outside world imagines.
The motor buzzed and the car rose steadily.
Fang Cheng raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. The hour hand had already crossed ten o'clock.
It's not that he came late because he was snoozing.
Just two hours ago, Fang Cheng just finished practicing Secluded Cultivation at Yong'an Island Undersea Ancient City.
Borrowing "Silver Key" to open Space Gate, he directly crossed thousands of miles and returned to Wanghu Town's home.
Then I took a shower, had breakfast, and went out at almost half past nine.
I recall the scene in the morning when I suddenly walked down from Second Floor and startled Mom who was sweeping the floor at Living Room.
Fang Cheng couldn't help but smile.
At that time, I could only find an excuse to excuse myself, saying that I came back at midnight last night, and I was afraid of disturbing my family's rest, so I didn't say anything.
Fortunately, Mom just complained a few words and did not go into details.
"Ding--"
The elevator arrived at Sixth Floor, and the car door slid open to both sides.
Fang Cheng stepped out, walked through the carpeted corridor, and pushed open the thick solid wood door Double Doors at the end of the corridor.
In the spacious President office, Central Air Conditioner sends out bursts of cool breeze.
The desk was spotless, and the Genuine Leather sofa was also wiped clean.
In the huge ecological landscaping tank, several arowanas shuttled between Aquatic Plants, their postures were lively and agile, and they were obviously well taken care of.
There is also a faint citrus freshener floating in the air.
Fang Cheng twitched his nose and immediately recognized a hint of the familiar Chanel perfume.
Apart from Lin Chuqiao, the only one who usually comes here to do cleaning is Jiang Yun, who is responsible for taking care of Sixth Floor's affairs.
And this perfume Aura belongs exclusively to the eldest lady Lin Chuqiao in the company.
Fang Cheng walked behind the large Mahogany Boss Desk, pulled out the high-backed leather chair and sat down.
Several folders are neatly placed on the desktop, and there is an elegant gold-plated pen next to it.
Fang Cheng opened it casually and glanced at the document.
There are some purchase lists and fund flow reports that need to be reviewed personally by President.
He read through them quickly, then took out his pen and signed his name at the end of each document.
"Tuk, duh."
Two crisp knocks on the door sounded.
Fang Cheng As soon as he looked up, the door had been gently pushed open.
I saw a modern girl with a charming smile walking in wearing high heels.
The person coming is none other than Lin Chuqiao.
Today she was wearing a burgundy silk shirt, with the hem tied into a slim-fitting black hip-hugging skirt, which perfectly accentuated her graceful figure.
Chang Fa's black and beautiful hair is casually tied back with a hairpin, which adds a bit of charm to a mature woman.
"Brother Cheng."
Lin Chuqiao held a handful of Purple Clay Teapot in his hand, walked to the desk, and said with a smile:
"I guessed that you would definitely come today, so I made a pot of Biluochun tea in advance."
"Here, these are the special buds newly picked from the Taihu Lake tea garden. They were just flown in yesterday. Drink them to refresh your mind. They are the best way to relieve the summer heat."
Fang Cheng put down the pen, leaned back on the chair with a smile, and said thanks:
"Chuqiao You are interested."
Lin Chuqiao picked up the white porcelain tea cup on the table and tilted his wrist.
The clear and clear tea soup poured down the spout of the pot, and the heat accompanied by the elegant tea fragrance spread between the two of them.
She put down Purple Clay Teapot and pushed the tea cup to Fang Cheng's hand, but there was a hint of resentment in her beautiful eyes:
"Our boss, Fang, has been like a dragon lately. He left such a big stall to a little girl, and he became the shopkeeper himself."
Fang Cheng picked up the tea cup and took a sip, smiled slightly, and did not argue.
Indeed, during this period, he focused mainly on Secluded Cultivation's training and breakthrough skills.
Either he leaves early and comes back late, or he disappears for two or three days.
Not to mention dealing with the daily affairs of the company, even the time spent with family members at home has been greatly reduced.
"Okay, it's rare that you come here today. I happen to have some work to report to you."
Seeing that Fang Cheng remained silent, Lin Chuqiao teased, then pulled out the chair in front of the desk and sat down, talking about business:
"Logistics Department just brought in the batch of special high-strength carbon fiber protective gear through shipping channels last week. They are all currently stored in C Zone Warehouse of Harbor. I have already established relations with the customs and will just send two trucks there tomorrow."
"In addition, with the help of the shell of the trading company, all the overseas funds on the organization's books were cleaned up and transferred into Eastern Capital Bank's account in batches, with the available funds exceeding 500 million yuan."
"So in terms of funds, we are still relatively well-off and don't need to worry too much for the time being."
Fang Cheng nodded slightly after listening.
This huge amount of money Backer came from the secret account Blood Thorn Mercenary Group handed over by Shanks, and now it has finally been cleared.
Except for the deducted rake from underground banks, most of it went back to you smoothly.
When you use money in the future, you don't have to be as stretched as usual.
After thinking for a moment, Fang Cheng made a suggestion:
"The funds must be kept clean, and there must be no financial connection with the business secretly run by Illumination Society."
"As for the channels for purchasing protective gear, we must also maintain a good relationship. We will definitely have long-term relationships with them in the future."
"Okay, Brother Cheng, I have discretion."
Lin Chuqiao stroked the broken hair beside her ear, and then talked about other things:
"Also, the renovation project of Jiangbei Textile Factory, the abandoned Air-raid Shelter, has now entered the final stage, and it will be officially settled by the end of the month."
"All three access control doors have been replaced with the most advanced explosion-proof Alloy doors, equipped with dual iris and palm print biometric security checks. The internal ventilation system and Backup Generator group have also been debugged."
Fang Cheng put down the tea cup, raised his eyes and asked:
"Where are the training equipment I requested to customize before?"
Hearing this, Lin Chuqiao raised the corners of his mouth slightly:
"Of course I haven't forgotten. I will strictly follow your instructions."
"For this purpose, I even made a special trip to Jiangbei's gantry crane factory to purchase a super-large-tonnage hydraulic press to make resistance equipment."
"A professional engineering machinery company is responsible for the design and production. They use Special Alloy Steel material to weld the high-strength gantry for you."
"As for the weights you want..."
She crossed her legs and paused for a moment, feeling more helpless:
"We shipped fifty solid steel ingots, each weighing two tons, directly from the nearby steel mill."
"This is already the limit that the Air-raid Shelter Cement floor can withstand. If it is any heavier, not only will the gantry be unable to support it, but the foundation will definitely crack."
"There are also two rolled steel coils that can be used as Barbell. Each one weighs twenty tons. Just getting the Air-raid Shelter in will scrap a forklift."
"Not bad."
Fang Cheng After listening, he nodded with satisfaction:
"I'll give it a try in two days and make a few sets of Squats to see if the welding quality of the gantry is up to standard."
Lin Chuqiao's red lips curled up slightly and she glanced at him angrily:
"Then you have to control your strength a little and don't have too much fun and tear down the new gym we just spent tens of millions on renovating."
If outsiders heard these words, they would probably treat the two of them as mentally ill.
But she knows only too well what kind of monster is hidden in her man's body.
Lin Chuqiao I still remember the expressions of the workers on the construction team who looked like they were in hell when they first transported those steel ingots and rolled steel coils into Air-raid Shelter.
Use a twenty-ton steel coil to do Barbell? Hydraulic Gantry to do resistance training? Is that still human?
Finally, she bit the bullet and said that she was testing some new type of load-bearing equipment, and then pushed the workers away.
After joking, Lin Chuqiao restrained his smile and said seriously:
"Brother Cheng, I plan to use Jiangbei Air-raid Shelter as a training base for new members of our organization."
"Cloud Hidden Small Dwelling Although the environment over there is good, it is located in a scenic area. There are usually many tourists and people are crowded. It is not convenient to conduct large-scale tactical training there."
Fang Cheng pondered for a moment and said:
"I can arrange it as you said for the time being, but the area of Air-raid Shelter is still a bit small."
"When the Resort renovation project at the Western Mountains is completely completed, we can use Ancient Locust Village as another base for new members."
"It is located deep in the mountains, and the location is remote enough. The members can train freely without fear of being disturbed by outsiders."
"The most important thing is that the yin energy there is stronger than other places. For Aberrant practice, it has the advantage of getting twice the result with half the effort."
Lin Chuqiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
She had heard Fang Cheng introduce the situation of Ancient Locust Village in detail before.
That place was originally occupied by Zombie King Jiang Chen, but now it was destroyed by Fang Cheng himself.
The entire village, along with Inner World hidden underground, has fallen under his control.
If we can really build it into Illumination Society's Secret Base, it will definitely be even more powerful for the development of the organization.
Let's not talk about Inner World, which can perfectly hide large numbers of people and provide an excellent training environment.
Just the Space Rift that can lead to Other Shore World, its value is inestimable.
Once the news leaks out, I'm afraid even Xia Country Official Authorities and those top Noble Clan will be jealous and try every means to snatch it away.
"This matter is of great importance and must be kept strictly confidential until it is completely transformed."
Lin Chuqiao thought for a moment and planned seriously:
"In the next few months, I plan to focus on Ancient Locust Village and personally keep an eye on the progress of the project there. I will also deploy a group of elite soldiers to garrison."
Fang Cheng looked at her serious work and encouraged her softly:
"Just leave some things to the supervisor below. Don't work yourself too hard and pay attention to your health."
Hearing his man's considerate words, Lin Chuqiao's eyebrows arched and his tone became much softer:
"This is the foundation of our organization's future. I wouldn't trust it if it were handed over to someone else. Besides, what's the point of working for your own man?"
Fang Cheng felt warm in my heart.
With such a smart and capable wife taking care of the rear, I really saved myself a lot of trouble and could focus most of my time on improving my strength.
Thinking of this, he leaned back in his chair, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and stretched out a hand towards her:
"We haven't seen each other for so many days. Do you miss me?"
Lin Chuqiao rolled his eyes at him, his eyes full of charm:
"Fangda President How many days have you not seen me? I thought you had a new love outside and forgot about this company and me."
"Besides, what's the use of missing you? It's just that I can't see anyone all day long..."
She was coquettish and complaining, but her actions were very straightforward.
Then he stood up, walked around the desk, and sat sideways on Fang Cheng's strong thighs.
White and soft arms were wrapped around the back of Fang Cheng's neck, and the faint smell of Chanel's perfume instantly filled the man's nostrils.
Their eyes met, and they were so close that they could feel each other's warm breath.
Lin Chuqiao raised his chin slightly, and put his pretty red lips up.
Fang Cheng tightened his arms around his waist, lowered his head and took her lips in his mouth.
In the quiet office, there was only the sound of sucking each other.
After a moment, their lips parted.
Lin Chuqiao's chest rose and fell slightly, calming down his rapid breathing.
She rested her head on Fang Cheng's broad chest, with a charming blush on her cheeks.
His eyes were hazy and his eyelashes were trembling slightly, as if he was still reminiscing about what happened just now.
The office was quiet, except for the sound of breathing that was particularly clear.
Fang Cheng put his arms around the beauty and broke the silence by speaking:
"Chuqiao, Old Wolf and Bao Ye, who are new members of the organization, how are they doing recently?"
Lin Chuqiao turned his face and replied in a disgusting voice:
"Old Wolf and Xiao Bei have been working together with Big Hammer recently, taking turns to be on duty at the base and Wanghu Town. They are very practical."
"As for Bao Ye and the others, they just received the mission the day before yesterday. The professor sent them out to collect the recent intelligence trends of Noah Organization and Xiao Family."
Fang Cheng heard this and nodded slightly:
"Professors are always decisive in hiring people."
Lin Chuqiao smiled sweetly and looked up at his handsome profile:
"That's natural. With you, the powerful President, standing above us, everyone will feel confident in doing things."
Just as the two were talking, a bell suddenly rang in the quiet office.
Fang Cheng picked up the vibrating phone on the table, glanced at the unfamiliar number on the screen, and then pressed the answer button.
Lin Chuqiao leaned quietly in his arms and listened.
A man's slightly older voice came from the phone.
A few sporadic words such as "Golden City Resort", "Thank you", and "Looking forward to cooperation" can be vaguely heard.
The call lasted only a short time. Fang Cheng responded briefly and then hung up.
"Who's calling? Is it urgent?"
Lin Chuqiao asked curiously.
Fang Cheng put the phone back on the table and said calmly:
"President of the East City Association, Shen Wei."
