Chapter 666: I Do (Part One)
Xu Cheng dropped Lin Chuxue off at Harvard University.
Lin Chuxue had a hard ti saying goodbye. “I will soon see you again once it’s break ti. Thank you for this trip back to Huaxia. I an, for taking to et those people.”
Xu Cheng looked at Lin Chuxue and said, “You an those people in Huaxia? Little Xue, those aren’t really important to , I’ll bring you to know the real important ones around later.”
“Okay.” Lin Chuxue smiled slightly. “I’ll wait until the ti cos, when you’ll take to them. It’s your brothers you were talking about, right?”
Xu Cheng nodded. “Yes, there are several of them. I’ll wait until you finish your studies.”
Lin Chuxue nodded. “I don’t know what you are doing, but just be careful with everything.”
“Okay I will. Go inside and rember not to talk to strangers.” Xu Cheng laughed.
Lin Chuxue gave Xu Cheng a flirtatious glance. “That sounds like you’re talking to a kid, but I am not a kid.”
“I know, but you’re too pretty. I’m afraid that even if you just casually walk around, increasing your exposure would increase the cri rate in Cambridge,” Xu Cheng said.
Lin Chuxue laughed as she said, “Since you praised , I’ll forgive you this ti for treating as an outsider. I hope that when I return from my studies, no matter what kind of secrets you have, or who your brothers are, you will tell everything about you. I want to know my man, so don’t make yourself too mysterious okay? Otherwise, it would feel so unreal.”
Lin Chuxue was still a more traditional person at heart, she felt that first of all, they never had a formal wedding and Xu Cheng still had things to hide from her, so it made her feel like she was very non-existent in Xu Cheng’s family or life. The marriage happened sowhat casually back then, but she did not want their future to be like this as well.
“I will. After your studies, let’s get married.” Xu Cheng smiled.
“You ... What did you say?” Lin Chuxue was stunned for a mont, and then she was a bit shy as she dropped her gaze. “Aren’t we considered married already?”
Xu Cheng laughed. “When Auntie Lan got married, the way you looked at her in her wedding dress... I owe you a formal wedding. Do you think I’m that stupid to understand what you reminded of before? I’ll be ready, for when you officially marry .”
“We’ll talk about it.” Lin Chuxue’s face suddenly flushed red, feeling like she couldn’t continue to talk about this topic any longer. She quickly turned around and ran up the steps of the apartnt with her heels in a sowhat fleeing manner.
But when Xu Cheng turned around to leave, Lin Chuxue suddenly turned around to look at Xu Cheng’s back and shouted while standing on the high staircase, “I do!”
By the ti Xu Cheng turned his head, Lin Chuxue had already run away.
Xu Cheng grinned as he looked at her slim figure.
He was smiling, and Lin Chuxue was also smiling with her back to him with the corners of her lips curled at a happy angle. The stars even seed to be smiling and twinkling in the dark night sky above her head.
Xu Cheng arrived at the office building that was to be the Mandala Lab’s headquarters, and he saw that Mario was still busy receiving phone calls. He threw a packet of cigarettes to Mario and Chekhov as he lit one up and asked, “How are the orders?”
Mario took out his notebook to tally the statistics and said. “A total of 41,565 bottles, gold bottles accounted for 69% of the orders, followed by platinum, and diamond bottle orders are still relatively small, only 1,700 bottles are expected to be ordered.”
Xu Cheng smacked his lips. “Normal. They still don’t know the value of the platinum and diamond bottles and their prices are also relatively high. The diamond bottle is 68,800 US dollars, and there are still 1700 orders sold, so that is far better than what we imagined. Besides we didn’t plan the diamond bottles for mass production.”
Mario clicked his tongue and said, “Big Brother Cheng, I calculated that there’s 400 million dollars profit for the sales and this is only day one. If our product gets into the hands of custors with good feedback, then the future sales will only rise steadily.”
Stenson interrupted at this ti. “I’m afraid the monthly sales will be billions by then. Boss, how much net profit can we make out of this 400 million?”
Xu Cheng said, “You don’t need to know that. There’s going to be a lot of it anyway, and there’s no need to disclose the details until we, Mandala, plan to go public.”
He also didn’t plan to go public, it would be fine to earn while keeping low-key.
If he wanted to play capital in this capitalistic nation, then he would really need to keep it low.

“Stenson, go back and acquire a bank.” Xu Cheng looked towards Stenson.
Stenson nodded, “Boss, is there any plan to organize a financial managent team? Of course, this is my opinion, because now with your huge funds, there are even more things that need to be done. I am afraid that I will be too busy to do it all by myself.”
Xu Cheng nodded. “True, then you are responsible for doing this. But Stenson you listen first, I don’t care how you organize it, but if my funds are tampered with, I will only look for you! You’ll take care of the teams, and I won’t interfere if any of them don’t do a good job, but you’ll have to talk directly to .”
Stenson nodded. “I understand. I will go and recruit the most professional team to serve you, Boss.”
Xu Cheng: “I don’t want them to take over the other businesses as well, I need it to be an one-on-one independent service.”
Stenson: “I understand.”
Xu Cheng: “Alright, you guys should discuss the acquisition of a bank together.”
To be able to penetrate directly to the core level of the M Nation, acquisition of a bank with many clients would allow them to have more control over those funds. But more than that, Xu Cheng needed his own funds to not be all in the Swiss National bank. The security of that bank was to be reviewed, and since the CIA was able to find Stenson from that account, it was evidence that their so-called privacy was only to fool average citizens, and Xu Cheng did not want to deposit his money in soone else’s bank.
“Then I’ll go and get this task done first,” Stenson said.
Xu Cheng nodded his head.
Once Stenson left, Chekhov smiled and said, “Big Brother Cheng, where did you find this lawyer? He feels very nosy.”
“He’s been nosy because he thinks we have so mysterious organization behind us again, and he thinks that with my assets, I’m so kind of unearthly billionaire like the mysterious Rothschild.”
“So could he be part of the core mbers?” Mario asked.
Xu Cheng answered. “Let’s wait until he’s completely on board. Right now he’s still on the edge, and once he gets in touch with the Socialist party on my behalf, that’s when he’ll be in the sa boat as us. “
“By the way, how are things back ho?” Xu Cheng asked the two of them.
“Everything is going well. The current project has not been affected by the war and the progress is fast. The Continental rcenary Corps, with the cooperation of both Vala and Diesel in terms of the assassination, have fully absorbed the four rcenary clans’ territories. Currently, they are occupying three fifths of the Land of rcenaries!”
“I rember they originally had two-fifths of the land, didn’t they? With the four rcenary corps’ territories, it should be four-fifths?” Xu Cheng pinched his brows.
“It is indeed four out of five, but at the sa ti as the four rcenary corps were destroyed, so independent military forces lurking in the Land of rcenaries from various countries fully erged to seize the resources and occupy the mountains. This ti they were strong, and their weaponry and equipnt were very powerful. I could tell that their intelligence has prepared a long ti for this, to prevent the Continental rcenary Corps from becoming big enough to form a governnt,” Mario answered.
Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes. “Then why don’t we fight?”
Mario: “We’re here to report this to your first because soldiers from various allied countries are involved. For example, thd M Nation’s Blackwater company, they are a first-class retired special forces team. Boss, we are waiting for your decision to fight this war or not.”
