Hao Ji said with some difficulty and bitterness.
The doctor couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.
Although Hao Ji has a very bold style, she is also a beautiful woman with a very attractive figure, and she has many suitors in Thailand.
But Xu Lang didn't even like her!
This shows that Xu Lang has very high standards, and it's difficult for ordinary women to catch his eye!
Thinking of this, the doctor couldn't help but sigh softly:
"How should I cooperate with a man like this after he arrives?"
After hanging up the phone, Xu Lang took out a photo from the bedside table.
The photo shows a woman standing at a funeral ceremony. She looks to be in her early twenties, wearing a simple white dress and a white flower in her hair, which makes her look even more elegant and refined, with a kind of lotus-like purity and nobility.
The woman in this photo is Dr. She rarely takes photos, but this photo is one of the very few that was taken when her ex-husband passed away. Xu Lang sent someone to investigate Dr. She's background and obtained the photo, which was then delivered to him.
"She really is a stunningly beautiful young widow!"
When Arun, who was giving Xu Lang a massage, saw the doctor's photo, he couldn't help but laugh:
"Brother Lang, are you going to see her next?"
Xu Lang smiled and couldn't help but pat her on the shoulder:
"Yeah, won't you be jealous?"
Arun chuckled:
"Why are you jealous? Anyway, you're our man. We won't lose out if you take advantage of us. Even if you already have me and Nanako at home, you're not allowed to bring anyone else home!"
Xu Lang laughed and put the doctor's photo aside.
These words were just a joke between him and Arun. In fact, the reason he was going to Thailand was to meet with the doctor and finalize the details of their cooperation.
Hao Ji is just the doctor's subordinate, and she can't make many decisions on her own. Only when the bigwigs from both sides meet in person can all cooperation issues be resolved at once.
Based on the doctor's suggestion, she planned to work with Dongxing on smuggling and arms dealing, aiming to gain more profits from arms sales while also expanding the smuggling business.
In return, she would hand over all arms trade outside Southeast Asia to Xu Lang, so that Xu Lang could use Dongxing's branch in He Lan to expand and spread the arms trade from Europe to all parts of the world.
This is a huge deal that could potentially be worth billions every year, so Xu Lang naturally has to take it seriously.
As he was thinking, a crisp system notification sounded in his mind:
"Congratulations, host, mission complete: Accept the doctor's cooperation request and partner with her in the arms deal!"
"Congratulations, host, you have received the reward: 100% loyalty from Wolverine James!"
As the system notification faded, a beam of white light suddenly appeared in the sky above the hillside below the villas on Mid-Levels, Hong Kong Island.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely muscular figure suddenly appeared from the white light. The scene was just like the robot played by Arnold Schwarzenegger suddenly appearing in Terminator. The difference was that this person who suddenly appeared from the white light was wearing clothes, and the bulging muscles between his white vest were even more toned and stronger than those of the robot played by Arnold Schwarzenegger!
He is the character that the system rewarded Xu Lang with: Wolverine, James!
James Wolverine stood on the grass, glanced at the surrounding night, and then turned his gaze to the villa where Xu Lang was in the distance. He then slammed his feet into the ground, making a loud thud as his feet scraped against the grass, and then he shot off like a cannonball.
Before long, he arrived at Xu Lang's villa.
When the guards saw this suddenly appearing man with muscles as strong as an ancient Greek sculpture, they couldn't help but gasp inwardly, while one hand quickly drew the short knife from his waist.
But before they could even point the blades at themselves, three long, claw-like blades suddenly emerged from the backs of James's hands.
Snap!
With two loud, metallic clangs, the short knives in the hands of the two Dongxing henchmen were severed by wolf claws.
"I have no ill intentions!"
James Wong's gaze was as cold as a wolf's as he said in a deep voice:
"I'm here to see Mr. Xu Lang!"
Xu Lang was just about to wash up when he suddenly received a report from the guard at the door:
"Brother, there's a guy named James Wolverine looking for you at the door, what should we do?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Lang was immediately overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, the system reward came so quickly. Just two minutes after hearing the system notification, James Wolverine's men had already arrived.
"Let him in!"
"yes, Sir!"
The guard at the door quickly let James in.
James quickly entered the villa's living room. Xu Lang, wearing pajamas, walked into the living room, glanced at James, who was dressed in dress pants and a white vest, his muscles bulging like a dragon, and couldn't help but nod and smile with satisfaction.
As expected of the Wolverine rewarded by the system, this James looks like a wolf king howling in the jungle, both in appearance and ability!
"Owner!"
James called out to Xu Lang with great respect.
Xu Lang nodded:
"Just call me Big Brother from now on. Now I'll arrange for you to find a place to rest. You'll come with me to Thailand tomorrow!"
"yes, Sir!"
James Wolverine immediately changed his tune, becoming extremely respectful and obedient!
……
The next day, Xu Lang, along with Wolverine James and Viper's second brother Hong Wentong, arrived in Chiang Mai, Thailand, from Hong Kong International Airport.
Soon, the plane landed at Chiang Mai Airport, where Iron Tiger Li Hao had already arrived and prepared a convoy to pick them up.
Xu Lang planned to have Li Hao take charge of the smuggling cooperation with the doctor in Southeast Asia, so he sent Li Hao to Chiang Mai yesterday. At the same time, he also brought a team of gunmen as a precaution. After all, Luo Hansheng had just died, and no one could guarantee that there were any die-hard fans or relatives behind him who might suddenly have a change of heart and want to avenge Luo Hansheng.
After leaving the airport, the convoy drove straight to the doctor's residence on the outskirts of Chiang Mai.
The doctor's residence in Chiang Mai was not a villa, but an estate.
Unlike Hong Kong Island, where land is incredibly expensive, land prices in Chiang Mai are quite cheap. As a result, the doctor bought a plot of land and built an estate. The estate not only has gardens and woods, but also a small pond, and a pavilion was built next to the pond.
The doctor is of Chinese descent and is very fond of tea ceremony. His favorite thing to do every day is to sit in the pavilion, drink tea, and watch the fish.
When Xu Lang's convoy arrived at the manor gate, he saw that the Doctor, his younger brother A Long, and Hao Ji were already standing at the gate to greet him. The Doctor was still dressed in white today, looking elegant and quiet, with a slender figure and a peaceful and gentle smile on his oval face.
Upon seeing the doctor in person, Xu Lang couldn't help but marvel at how much prettier she was in person than in the photos. Just as Arun had described, she was indeed a beautiful young widow.
"Welcome, Mr. Xu Lang!"
The doctor smiled and extended a hand to Xu Lang, giving him a gentle handshake.
Her hands were slender, white, and smooth, with a hint of coolness in their softness. When Xu Lang shook her hand, it felt like touching white jade.
His younger brother, Ah Long, remained aloof and unsmiling, but he still showed great respect and politeness towards Xu Lang.
The three then invited Xu Lang to the pavilion by the small pond in the manor. The Doctor and Xu Lang sat opposite each other, while James and Aaron sat behind them.
The doctor personally brewed tea and poured a cup for Xu Lang.
Over there, Hao Ji served tea to James and the others.
“Mr. Xu, we have resolved the Luo Hansheng issue. We can proceed with our cooperation with Dongxing. You are already very clear about my plan: we will do the smuggling and arms business in Southeast Asia together, and I will leave the arms transactions in other places to you.”
“No problem, but Tung Sing needs a branch in Thailand as a base, so I hope you can hand over Luo Hansheng’s territory to me!”
The doctor thought for a moment and then nodded.
Luo Hansheng's territory is on Gaochang Island, which is not the doctor's territory. The doctor's business has always been smuggling and arms dealing, and he is not very interested in territory.
Moreover, having Dongxing establish a branch in Thailand as a strong ally is also beneficial to the Doctor. At least if a madman like Luo Hansheng appears again, she will no longer be fighting alone.
“No problem, but Dongxing must also provide protection when our weapons are transported through countries such as Malaya and Indonesia!”
What PhDs want is a powerful alliance.
She has the best sources of goods and smuggling routes, but she doesn't have any branches in other Southeast Asian countries. If Tung Sing can provide security guarantees, that would be the best option.
Xu Lang smiled:
"Of course. Now that we've started cooperating, your interests are my interests. We at Dongxing have an obligation to ensure your safety. Anyone who touches your goods or people is doing the same thing to Dongxing!"
Upon hearing Xu Lang's assurance, a joyful smile appeared on the doctor's face.
She picked up the teacup and smiled:
"Alright, from now on we're family. I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"
Hearing about her family, Xu Lang's heart stirred.
Since we are family, it is only right that we take care of the doctor.
……
At night, Gaochang Island is brightly lit, and the sounds of car horns and laughter from men and women can be heard from time to time.
Gaochang Island, also known as Elephant Island, has dense jungles, but its coast also has large beaches and fishing ports. Located on the border of Taiguo Bay and Jianpu Village, it has always been a tourist destination and a place for the transshipment of goods, as well as a middle ground for many smuggling operations.
On the bar street on one side of Gaochang Beach, Chai was still walking in the middle of the street with a group of his underlings, glancing at the shops on both sides from time to time.
Chai was still the younger brother of Chai Bo, the leader of Luo Hansheng. Previously, he was only a second-tier figure under Luo Hansheng, but Luo Hansheng's sudden death brought him an opportunity. While the other leaders were in shock and fear, he quickly took over all of Luo Hansheng's territories and had now become the boss of the Luo Hansheng Group.
Although he has taken over the Luo Hansheng Group, he dares not avenge his older brother and Luo Hansheng. For now, he can only hold onto his territory and accumulate strength.
As they were walking, they suddenly heard a scream from afar.
But then, a very muscular man wearing dress pants and a white vest suddenly appeared at the entrance of a bar ahead and knocked several of Chai Rang's henchmen to the ground in the blink of an eye.
The sudden brawl startled tourists and passersby near the bar, who quickly scattered to avoid it.
Upon seeing this, Chai assumed it was a fight between some drunken foreign tourists and immediately said to his men:
"Go over there and find out who they are. If they're a sucker, clean them up and throw them back into the sea!"
Several henchmen immediately rushed over and quickly surrounded James. One of them pulled out a kukri from his waist, pointed the blade at James's face, and said:
"Who are you, daring to cause trouble on our turf..."
Before he could finish speaking, three sharp blades suddenly shot out from the back of James' right hand, slashing down in mid-air and cutting the kukri in his hand in two.
The remaining henchmen were startled by the sight and quickly drew their weapons to slash at James.
