Fury Immortal Doctor Chapter 688 - 690: Become My Little Brother and You Can Go

Upon hearing Shen Qiang's words, Jiaojiao laughed and said, "Shen Qiang, if I didn't know you well, I definitely would have thought that what you just said was an act. Ji Liangchuan is the seventh boy of his generation in the Ji Family, hence people in the Cultivation World call him the Seventh Young Master."

"That ans, if Ji Liangchuan wants to beco the heir of the Ji Family in the future, he needs to outperform his brothers."

"The foundation of the Ji Family rests on two main areas, one is the production of entry-level Magical Treasures, and the other is the production of various manufacturing equipnt. In these two aspects, only if Ji Liangchuan performs exceptionally well will he possibly qualify to compete with his other brothers."

Looking at Xu Nan smugly, Jiaojiao continued with a smile, "The sa problem is even more severe for Xu Nan. Her father is the helmsman of Wanxin Hesheng, but he only has Xu Nan as his daughter, while his many brothers have eleven sons under them, so Xu Nan has it even tougher."

"If Xu Nan cannot prove herself to be superior to the other boys, she simply won't qualify to beco the heir of Wanxin Hesheng. That is, if both of them do not strive hard, no matter how much money or power their families have, it won't belong to them."

"So it truly is quite pitiable."

As Xu Nan raised her eyebrows proudly, she said, "Yes, just like you said, if Ji Liangchuan and I do not try hard enough, neither of us will be able to beco the helmsn of our respective families. But you, naive and sweet as you are, even if you beca the head of Cheng Xinyi, you would definitely end up being manipulated."

Jiaojiao was displeased.

But before she could continue speaking, Ji Liangchuan said gravely, "I have six brothers; they are all quite outstanding. The only area where I am better than them is that I can practice Alchemy, but that only qualifies to beco an Alchemist, not the ruler of the family."

"Thus, I had great expectations for this entrepreneur's banquet because I hoped to network with so entrepreneurs, so as to later promote our Ji Family's manufacturing equipnt to them."

"But now it seems that things have gone awry."

"Not just that, the person who actually went to the banquet was my fourth brother."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise, "Your fourth brother? The mumbling drunkard?"

Ji Liangchuan said seriously, "He is quite formidable in business; he just can't handle his personal emotions well. And for so reason, he's extrely fond of the cashier at your bun shop."

Shen Qiang laughed, "If he were really that impressive, he wouldn't be failing even with won."

Ji Liangchuan responded, "It's because he cares too much; actually, if he wished, countless beauties would throw themselves at him."

Shen Qiang chuckled and said, "No worries. If you want to go to this banquet, let Xu Nan and Jiaojiao take you along."

Upon hearing this, Xu Nan imdiately shook her head, "It won't work. The banquet is very strict. The invited guests can only enter alone; even assistants aren't allowed, and there are strict rules against bringing anyone along. If discovered, you would be ejected, which would be highly embarrassing."

Shen Qiang frowned, looking at Ji Liangchuan, "So what do you want to do?"

Ji Liangchuan sighed, "My fourth brother has won; what else can I do? My other brothers have virtually divided up the business in other provinces. Only here in Provincial City is it still up for grabs, so I think this is my opportunity."

"But now that my fourth brother is here, at first I thought he ca here just for Jing Xiangwei."

"But it seems, everything is not as simple as I imagined. Perhaps while pursuing Jing Xiangwei, he also kept looking for opportunities."

"Now, it's clear he has won. He got the invitation to the banquet, and I did not."

Upon hearing this, Xu Nan comforted with a smile, "There will be other opportunities in the future."

Ji Liangchuan said, "Do you think that after all the important entrepreneurs of the province have t my fourth brother, they would still do business with ?"

Xu Nan was silent.

After hesitating for a mont, Jiaojiao suggested, "Maybe we could think of another solution for you."

"I have no other choices," Ji Liangchuan sighed, defeated, "I have already lost."

Just then, Shen Qiang's phone rang.

Seeing an unknown number on the caller ID, Shen Qiang didn't want to answer it.

But at the sa ti, because Shen Qiang was a mber of the Dragon Group, his number was on a VIP list.

That ant Shen Qiang wouldn't receive any spam calls.

So Shen Qiang chose to answer the phone.

As soon as he answered, Shen Qiang heard a calm male voice on the other end.

"Hello, Mr. Shen Qiang, this is the Director of the Provincial Investnt Office. My surna is Liu. Please forgive my presumption in calling you. The situation is this, your company's Streptococcus Liquid has secured a dical aid agreent with the visiting delegation, so the Provincial Committee and the Ministry of Health have decided to host a banquet at noon."

"The purpose is to entertain the guests of the foreign delegation and, more importantly, to motivate the many entrepreneurs within the province to learn from a young and promising individual like you, to refine and perfect their industries. Thus, the banquet is officially an Entrepreneurs' Banquet."

"But the core focus of the banquet is still you, so please, you must co to the banquet hosted at the City Hall at noon today, as your absence would make everyone uncomfortable."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang arched an eyebrow in slight surprise and glanced at Ji Liangchuan, who looked crestfallen, then replied, "Hello Director Liu, I understand, and I'll try my best to make it. However, I have a friend here with so important matters to discuss with , so may I bring him along to the banquet?"

Director Liu on the other end of the line imdiately said, "As long as he is your friend, Mr. Shen, there's absolutely no problem. I'll notify the banquet staff, and whoever you bring is welco."

Shen Qiang smiled, saying, "Then, about the number of people..."

"Any number of people is fine," Director Liu laughed over the phone. "Of course, it might be a problem if you bring the entire staff of your company."

"No, that won't be necessary. Thank you, Director Liu. We'll see you at noon," Shen Qiang smiled.

"See you at noon."

The call ended.

Xu Nan, Bai Jiao, and Ji Liangchuan all looked at Shen Qiang with clear eyes.

"The Director of the Provincial Investnt Office personally called to invite you?" Xu Nan said, shocked. "You're really sothing else."

Bai Jiao's eyes sparkled as she added, "That's really impressive. I doubt there are more than five people who could get a personal call from the Director of the Provincial Investnt Office."

Shen Qiang looked at them and asked with a smile, "Do you need my autograph?"

Both of them chuckled and snorted in unison.

Then, Shen Qiang turned to Ji Liangchuan with clear eyes and said, "You'd better go ho now, change your clothes, and prepare your business cards. I don't want the lackey I bring to the banquet to get kicked out for being poorly dressed."

In an instant, Ji Liangchuan was stunned, his expression a mix of surprise and slight embarrassnt.

anwhile, Xu Nan and Bai Jiao bent over laughing, their eyes twinkling.

Especially Bai Jiao, who teased Ji Liangchuan with a mocking glance, "I think you might need to start calling Shen Qiang 'big brother' now."
