Return of the King, Chapter 1016 - 1004: The Charity Foundation Inauguration

Chapter 1016: Chapter 1004: The Charity Foundation Inauguration

There are many people in this world like Zhang Bei. They have courage, determination, and abilities, but what they lack is an opportunity.

Song Yun gave Zhang Bei two options, essentially wanting to see if Zhang Bei had the courage to venture and expand.

Two hundred thousand a year is certainly a lot. It would be enough to buy a car or a house, and if one desires to splurge a bit, it would also cover the cost of keeping a woman. However, this path is suitable for those who seek stability, but for soone like Zhang Bei, this path might be too lacking in challenges.

Of course, the premise is that a more challenging path must be presented in front of him.

After explaining what needed to be conveyed, Song Yun took ng Ku and others to leave. Bringing ng Ku and Zhao Yan over this ti was actually to let Zhang Bei feel valued—after all, when three of the big boss-level figures of the Su Nan Xiu Luo Alliance visit him, isn’t that enough importance?

That night, Zhang Bei packed up his luggage, then took a few clean-background talents of the Shura Alliance, left Su Nan, and headed to GZ.

The pawns had been sent out, how it would develop, Song Yun didn’t worry too much. These were things others needed to do, and as the one in charge, it was naturally for him to control the overall situation.

One must say, Xuanwu was quite attentive to the matter of the foundation. Just a week had passed, and he planned to invite Song Yun over. Song Yun had already promised Xuanwu he would attend the ribbon-cutting, so he still had to deal with many matters regarding the Shura Alliance beforehand. Besides, Song Yun, representing one of the bosses of the Shura Alliance venturing to Xuanwu’s territory in YN, required appropriate followers. After all, it wouldn’t do to go to YN alone; it would lack grandeur, and on another aspect, it wouldn’t be safe.

Last ti Song Yun went to YN, he wasn’t anybody, so there was no need to consider these things. Now that his identity was different, considerations had to change too.

With the entire leadership of the Shura Alliance present, Song Yun briefly explained the situation, then said, "Those coming with

tomorrow will be Jue Wu and a team of 20 elite mbers, which shall basically handle any possible situations."

Jue Wu nodded and said, "I have no issues, I’ll personally arrange that team of 20 elite mbers shortly."

Zhao Yan said, "This ti going to YN, it would be best for you to be more high-profile, Song Yun."

"Oh?"

"Because Xuanwu’s influence in the southwest is considerably large, larger than ours in Su Nan. If you go there a bit high-profile, letting everyone see, then you could create the illusion that you and Xuanwu are quite close. Additionally, considering our current superficial good relations with the Green Sect, essentially, in the north and west of our location, we’ve secured allies. Although many are only seemingly allies, such intangible influence is quite significant." Zhao Yan explained.

"I understand this." Song Yun nodded and said, "When I return from YN, if the progress in the Pearl River Delta is favorable, we can head directly to GZ."

"Hmm, wishing you success on your trip to YN!" Zhao Yan said.

"Yes, I hope so too."

The matter of going to YN was thus decided. This trip to YN was purely for business, so there would be little to no elent of play.

After returning to the villa, Song Yun brought this matter up with Qingluan. As the only woman currently by Song Yun’s side, naturally, Qingluan had to accompany him to YN. One major reason was that Qingluan was a board mber of the Phoenix Love Foundation, which was significantly related to her.

So the next morning, Song Yun, along with Qingluan and the elite mbers of the Shura Alliance, boarded the plane to YN.

By noon, the plane arrived at KM airport in YN.

To show his regard for Song Yun, Xuanwu specially arranged for a convoy to pick him up. Of course, for safety reasons, Song Yun had his ride arranged by himself.

This is sothing any boss would do when visiting soone else’s territory. If you ride soone else’s car and get hit by a few bombs, you wouldn’t even have a place to cry. No matter how strong you are, once hit by a few bombs, there’s nothing left but a fleeting cloud.

The convoy triumphantly left KM airport, heading towards Xuanwu’s residence.

Xuanwu’s chief steward waited outside the residence for Song Yun, while Xuanwu himself waited at the door of his house.

This represented a very high level of attentiveness from Xuanwu towards Song Yun’s visit.

"Brother Song Yun, it’s really been a hard trip for you!" Xuanwu exclaid, quickly moving forward and extending his hand when he saw Song Yun stepping out of the car.

Song Yun also reached out his hand, shook hands with Xuanwu, and then said, "Troubling Brother Xuanwu to personally welco , it’s truly startling!"

"Haha, startling what, no need for such formality between us, co, follow !" Xuanwu said, pulling Song Yun’s hand and leading him directly into the grand house ahead.

Xuanwu first arranged for Song Yun to have a al at his ho. After the al, without much rest, they went directly to a news building in the center of KM city, where the inauguration ceremony of the Phoenix Love Foundation was to be held.

Here, Song Yun thoroughly felt the influence of Xuanwu. From the governntal side, the head of KM personally attended the inauguration, and from the provincial side, a high-level figure was also present. Naturally, Xuanwu led Song Yun to et and interact with these leaders. When these leaders found out Song Yun was a direct line mber of the Song Family, they showed considerable regard for him. Although YN isn’t Song Family’s territory, their influence is nationwide.

"For this inauguration ceremony, I even specifically brought so people from the impoverished mountainous areas of GZ to receive direct donations here." Xuanwu explained, adding, "Although it’s mostly symbolic, what’s being donated is real and substantial."

"GZ mountainous areas?" Song Yun raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

"Yes! From the mountains in GZ, we went to great lengths to locate that village, planning to send a filming crew from here tomorrow for ongoing coverage. That place is in a very remote mountainous area, almost devoid of inhabitants, let alone the things we have in the city. Basic life facilities, like a television, there’s only one set in the entire village, and one DVD player—do you even rember that thing? No one knows from what era that is, yet in that village, it remains a rarity." Xuanwu explained.

"What’s the na of that village?" Song Yun asked.

"Xiangyang Village." Xuanwu replied, "The na is quite nice, but unfortunately, there’s nothing there, not even many trees, rendering developnt impossible. Hence, the first recipient of aid from our Phoenix Love Foundation is that village. This ti, we have prepared close to fifty thousand yuan worth of dicines and about one hundred thousand yuan of daily necessities, which will be sent over once the ceremony is concluded."
