Chapter 331: Chapter 105: Chased Here (Part 3)

After all, doing this through outsiders every time would be very costly.

If President Hu, with his vast empire, buys it, he can save a significant portion of expenses. Moreover, once bought, he can sell petri dishes containing the technology externally, without needing to pay additional patent fees.

Exporting saplings would be very convenient.

Among them, there are several items that Su Xiaocai is not too optimistic about, “Let’s not include these, they’re outdated technologies. But if President Hu has business with technologically backward planets, it might be worth a try. Many planets still lack technology and could open up markets.”

The Ten Stars System is governed by star systems. Although the laws are the same, the systems and welfare may vary somewhat.

The customs of people on some planets are somewhat resistant to outsiders from other planets, unwilling to have contact with outsiders, resulting in backward technology.

But they also envy the advanced world of Capital Star.

Using outdated technology to exchange for materials with them would be very cost-effective.

Secretary Bai gave a thumbs-up, yes, he thought so too.

In fact, these things were persuaded by others for President Hu to bid on. He never stops President Hu from doing foolish things, either providing solutions himself or quietly muddling through.

Stopping him outright would cause President Hu to have a rebellious mindset.

Su Xiaocai asked meaningfully, “Which projects did Secretary Bai choose, and which did Uncle Hu choose?”

Secretary Bai pointed to the outdated technology Su Xiaocai mentioned, “These were chosen by our boss.”

Su Xiaocai suddenly understood, perhaps the reason for President Hu’s fortune lies in Secretary Bai.

No wonder, a shrewd old fox hiding in plain sight.

President Hu has personal charisma, and Secretary Bai enjoys working behind the scenes, both perfectly aligned.

Su Xiaocai accepted the napkin offered by Secretary Bai and wiped her mouth, “If you really want to enter a new technological field, wait a little longer. Wait a little longer, and I will help you achieve your goal. At that time, you will also need to do me a favor.”

President Hu and Wu Zhaoxiang will be Su Xiaocai’s backup against the Xue Family.

When the evidence is complete, if the Xue Family insists on protecting Xue Huiyi, she will elevate President Hu and Wu Zhaoxiang.

Elevate them to heights unreachable by others, tearing away the Xue Family’s most important business segment, and naturally, the Xue Family will fall.

Wu Zhaoxiang, upon hearing there’s more to come, said, “Thanks to Su, I’ll help with anything at that time.”

“Even help to overthrow the Xue Family?” Su Xiaocai smiled, observing Wu Zhaoxiang and Secretary Bai.

She originally thought Wu Zhaoxiang and Secretary Bai would at least be a little shocked.

Instead, Secretary Bai showed rare excitement, “The greater the difficulty, the more challenging it is.”

Wu Zhaoxiang pondered: If I had the ability, I wouldn’t need Su Xiaocai to say anything. I’d go over and kick Xue Feiqun twice. That guy is so annoying. He looks decent enough, doing charitable deeds, yet who knows how disgusting he is behind the scenes. Only a few people in the industry understand how hypocritical he really is.

Just as the Xue Family was mentioned, people from the Xue Family arrived, including Xue Feiting, Xue Feiting’s wife, Xue Feiqun, and Xue Huiyi.

Xue Huiyi originally didn’t want to come. She had just annulled her engagement, though it hadn’t been made public yet. But if people at the banquet ask why she didn’t come with Ji Heng, she wouldn’t know how to answer.

Stay calm and say they split up? Smile and say they had different views and the marriage contract was off?

What Xue Huiyi didn’t know was that news of the annulment had already spread overnight among the wealthy guests attending today’s banquet.

Servants tell servants, noble ladies tell noble ladies—in the age of advanced networking, a single sentence can get an endless response from group friends.

Xue Huiyi never expected that her proactively annulled engagement could ultimately become a joke.

A young lady of similar status to Xue Huiyi proactively approached, greeting Xue Feiqun and Mrs. Xue, “Uncle, Auntie, we haven’t chatted with Huixixi for a long time. Can you spare her to us for a while?”

Mrs. Xue smiled and said, “Go ahead, Huixixi lost a few friends and hasn’t been in good spirits. You youngsters should try to cheer her up.”

“Yes, she needs new friends.” Xue Feiting silently warned her not to throw a tantrum.

Xue Huiyi’s face instantly darkened.

The young lady happily insisted, and so “forcibly” took Xue Huiyi away.

Xue Huiyi was beyond angry. When had she become close with her? She has never enjoyed associating with the Bai Family’s young lady of similar prestigious background.

They speak too bluntly, too inconsiderate of others’ feelings, always making her feel exposed.

But her parents were watching her from behind, and just yesterday, she had been severely reprimanded by Xue Feiting and now dared not defy him.

Xue Huiyi was taken into the Bai Family circle.

The first sentence from the group of glamorous young ladies gathered in conversation made Xue Huiyi want to turn around and leave immediately.
