Chapter 1180: Overreaching
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Okay, I will inform him later.” Li Qiang nodded and spoke plainly as if it were a very ordinary thing.
Zhang Jingyao, Huang Rongjin, and the others widened their eyes and looked at Yang Ming and Li Qiang in disbelief. Let General Kars come over to see Yang Ming? Is there a mistake?
Although Zhang Jingyao knew that Yang Ming and General Kars had a cooperative relationship, it was just cooperation. With the identity of General Kars, how could he condescend to see Yang Ming?
However, Li Qiang agreed so readily, which made Zhang Jingyao feel somewhat incredulous.
Could it be a play by Yang Ming and Li Qiang? Does he want to show his strength in front of the Huang Family? At that time, even if General Kars did not come, Yang Ming could avoid it by saying that General Kars was busy and didn’t have time to come. Then, he could be justified to take them to see General Kars.
Anyway, in the face of General Kars, he couldn’t expose these, so this was not considered a lie.
However, what was the significance of doing this? Although it could boast Yang Ming’s position in front of the Huang Family, once things were revealed, the situation would be worsened!
Now, the relationship between Yang Ming and General Kars were already very familiar. There was no need to make such hypocrisy. Therefore, for a while, Zhang Jingyao could hardly understand the deeper meaning of Yang Ming.
However, Huang Xiaofei, who looked somewhat puzzled at Yang Ming, was also bewildered. It was already astonishing that Yang Ming could be associated with General Kars. How could it be possible to make General Kars come and see them?
Even if Yang Ming boasted, Huang Xiaofei was not the kind of person who could not make discerning judgments. How would General Kars come to see them personally? Even if General Kars were forced to come to give Yang Ming face, in the end, General Kars’ heart would probably be unhappy. When it was time to do things, it would not be too smooth. General Kars must definitely get his face back from other places.
Although General Kars was only a temporary president, at least, he was the top decision-maker of Country X. To have him condescend to see Yang Ming, wasn’t that…
Thinking about this, Huang Xiaofei felt that it was not very likely. In case General Kars accumulated rancor, then it would be difficult to do anything in the future! When he thought of it, Huang Xiaofei was secretly shocked.
However, he naturally knew that Yang Ming said this because he might want to surprise Zhang Jingyao!
Huang Xiaofei thought that he was already Yang Ming’s father-in-law, and Yang Ming had helped him a lot. Yang Ming was considered part of the family, so he was not regarded as an outsider. In front of Huang Xiaofei, Yang Ming didn’t have to act like a stranger. He could just tell the truth.
Therefore, in Huang Xiaofei’s view, Yang Ming must have tried to give Zhang Jingyao reassurance. However, since Zhang Jingyao had come to Country X, there was no need to take such a big risk just to be in the limelight.
Thinking of this, Huang Xiaofei quickly said to Yang Ming, “Yang Ming, how is it appropriate to let General Kars, who is busy attending to various state affairs, to come and see us? It is already terrific that he can accept our visit! We are in their territory, after all. Even if you have a good personal relationship with General Kars, it is also just a personal relationship. We are asking him about business!”
Huang Xiaofei said this to give Yang Ming a way out of an embarrassing situation. Otherwise, it would make Yang Ming embarrassed if he directly reprimanded Yang Ming. This way, Yang Ming’s face was preserved, and Zhang Jingyao would not think too much.
Zhang Jingyao really overthought. However, if Huang Xiaofei knew that Zhang Jingyao’s thoughts were the same as himself, who knew how he would feel about that. However, he immediately had this opportunity.
After hearing the words of Huang Xiaofei, Zhang Jingyao secretly praised Huang Xiaofei to be very sensible at the moment. Unlike the impulsive guy, he said these words obviously to protect Yang Ming, and not to hurt his face.
Therefore, Zhang Jingyao quickly followed the words of Huang Xiaofei. “Yes, General Kars is so busy. He has so many state affairs to attend to every day, so we should visit him.”
“Hey?” Yang Ming was stunned. After listening to the words of Huang Xiaofei and Zhang Jingyao, he was a bit puzzled. He looked at Li Qiang and asked, “Is Kars busy every day? Li Qiang?”
“Busy?” Li Qiang was also surprised. “Who knows? Maybe he is busy for nothing. I don’t see the results of his business. Kars is an uncouth fellow, not as good as me. A lot of things were done after he discussed them with me.”
” Oh ?”
At the moment the mouths of Zhang Jingyao and Huang Xiaofei became an “0” shape. They were stunned as they looked at Li Qiang with a horrified look. This Li Qiang is just a driver, right? How can he discuss important matters with General Kars?
This tone is too boastful, right? Even if Yang Ming wants to show off, isn’t it too obvious? This is not obvious; it’s bragging!
If Yang Ming and General Kars had a very close relationship, then Zhang Jingyao and Huang Xiaofei could still believe it. But if Li Qiang, the driver, was also on the same level as General Kars, and they even discussed important things together, they wouldn’t believe it even if someone threatened to kill them.
At best, they could barely believe that Li Qiang said that he had contact with General Kars. After all, General Kars’ relationship with Yang Ming was there. Just that, Li Qiang now…
Yang Ming bragged; Li Qiang also bragged. Zhang Jingyao suddenly felt a little disgusted, and he began to have some doubts. Indeed, Yang Ming’s skill was good. If he were an assassin, then this was very likely.
However, if he were an assassin, did it mean that he must have a relationship with General Kars? This was not necessary, right? Could it be that Yang Ming was just deceiving him? Did he lie and say that he had a relationship with General Kars in exchange for Zhang Jingyao’s support for the Huang Family?
Zhang Jingyao heard that Country X used the form of open bidding to allocate the mining rights of each mine. Then, it meant that if you have money, you can be allocated a piece of it. There was no need to have any relationship with General Kars.
Moreover, he heard that this bidding would be fair and just. There were no covert activities, then… that meant that the role of Yang Ming was dispensable!
As he thought of this, Zhang Jingyao’s doubts were even more so. Could it be that what Li Family’s Li Zhichun and his son said was all true? I listened to Yang Ming’s lie… Hence, the irony of Li Zhichun and his son is not surprising; they must think that I am a fool…
Zhang Jingyao’s heart had a chill, and the cold sweat on his head also came out. However, he did not dare to expose it in front of Yang Ming! Yang Ming was a horrifying existence, especially in this land without laws. If he were killed by Yang Ming, then he could only die in vain. It was not even a place where he could use reason.
Therefore, although Zhang Jingyao was in a state of turmoil, on the surface, he did not dare to make any movements. He still maintained a calm expression. He did not want to die far away from his hometown.
Huang Xiaofei was also stunned. He initially wanted to help Yang Ming out. Unexpectedly, the driver of Yang Ming was so ignorant. He wanted to help the boss to brag, but he couldn’t brag like this, right? This was just lying through his teeth!
In this way, even if Huang Xiaofei was willing to help Yang Ming to get out of it, it was unlikely. Li Qiang had already made a dead end. He couldn’t say anything else.
Initially, both of them were already frightened, suspicious, and had their ups and downs. However, what Yang Ming said next was even more surprising. “I wonder what is he busy with. Then tell him to go to the gold mine first and wait for us.”
“Okay, I will call him.” Li Qiang nodded.
Under the shocked looks of Zhang Jingyao and Huang Xiaofei, Li Qiang picked up the phone and dialed a number…
Huang Lele did not show anything about the dialogue between Yang Ming and Li Qiang. After all, she had always been very convinced of Yang Ming. Whatever Yang Ming said or did, she believed in him without a doubt.
At this moment, Huang Rongjin and Huang Rongtian couldn’t trust Yang Ming like Huang Lele. Huang Rongjin was better. Especially Huang Rongtian, he didn’t really trust it since he did not have much contact with Yang Ming. Basically, the news about Yang Ming was all hearsay from Huang Rongjin and Huang Lele, so it naturally wasn’t that convincing.
However, at this time, Huang Rongtian couldn’t even question him. Although Huang Rongtian was very disgusted with Li Qiang and Yang Ming for bragging, on the surface, he still didn’t say anything. He just treated it as a joke.
Li Qiang’s phone was connected, and he was not polite. He said directly, “Kars? This is Li Qiang.”
Kars had a dedicated private phone that did not require the secretary to transfer, but only a few people knew about this number. Yang Ming and Li Qiang were some of them.
However, Yang Ming never took the initiative to call Kars; Kars was always the one who called him.
As soon as Kars heard Li Qiang’s voice, he quickly said, “Captain Li, what’s the matter?”
“Brother Yang is here; you go wait at the gold mine. We will arrive soon.” Li Qiang directly informed.
“Mr. Yang came? Okay!” General Kars said immediately after listening. “I will go to the gold mine now!”
Although Yang Ming did not say that he had the ownership rights to this small island nation of Africa, General Kars understood that the small island of Country X was just like Yang Ming’s private island.
Now, General Kars could only be said to be a private butler of Yang Ming. He heard that Li Qiang had contacted a particular administrative department in Africa. He was ready to buy the land of Country X, completely turning it into private territory.
Although Country X now formally belonged to the management department in Africa, in fact, Country X had been at war for many years, and it was already independent. What Li Qiang had to do was to have a nominal name internationally to let Country X truly become Yang Ming’s private territory.
Hearing Li Qiang talking so seriously on the phone there, the people in the car had their own thoughts. Of course, Zhang Jingyao and Huang Xiaofei did not think that Li Qiang really called General Kars. This kind of pretentious approach was too botched up and had no quality! It was just too overreaching!
