If he truly wants to resolve this matter sincerely, he will naturally go obediently.
Xiaoqiang was still a little worried and afraid that the man surnamed Li might cause trouble in the future.
"He has spread many rumors about us before, and the things he said were quite nasty."
If we let him go now, he'll be willing to go. Otherwise, I'll have a few brothers wait on the side.
I always feel like we need to have a backup plan, otherwise those guys will always find something to use against us.
Xu Lei almost burst out laughing when he heard this, if the other party really had such intentions.
Even if I rack my brains, I can't really defend against them. Things are just beginning.
Xu Lei naturally wouldn't want to create so many conflicts with them here.
Instead, he smiled and told them that he would handle everything.
"Li Zhenlin has no chance now. He thinks that if he doesn't do these things now, he'll be in trouble."
He was able to escape the whole thing, which means he has no way out now.
He may appear to be a nonchalant assassin, but who knows where he might be thinking of apologizing to us?
So, regardless of how I ultimately handle this matter, it doesn't really matter to me.
After he finished speaking, Xu Lei smiled slightly with a hint of triumph on his face.
By this point, Xiaoqiang probably already understood that the boss knew how to keep these people in check.
I used to underestimate all of this, so I can't be happier than I am now.
"So that's how it is, boss. You had this planned all along."
Xu Lei simply waved his hand.
"This is called taking precautions in advance. We can't just stand here like idiots and let others come and deal with us."
Since Li Zhenlin has resorted to such tactics, Xu Lei will definitely teach him a lesson here.
Although Xu Lei didn't intend to truly break ties with him at the moment, he was worried that one day he might actually be in Xu Lei's way.
Xu Lei would definitely not let him off the hook, and there was a hint of something in his eyes that was quite intimidating.
This also surprised them a little, as Xu Lei never seemed to have any difficulty in such matters.
On the contrary, I wanted to have a proper talk with them, but now that things have turned out this way, it's a bit difficult.
And now everything is far more surprising and worse than previously imagined.
Although they could handle these things with apparent ease before.
But now it seems a little shameful and embarrassing.
“In the past, they weren’t willing to engage in any profound sentiments or grand gestures with us here.”
It's like he thinks we all can't live without him. That's just the kind of person Li Zhenlin is.
If things go according to his wishes, he will naturally be willing to chat with us here.
He could certainly chat with us here willingly, but he's completely different.
He'll definitely cause us a lot of trouble in the future, so just thinking about it makes me feel pretty listless.
Xu Lei's words were quite interesting, and Xiao Qiang, upon hearing this, naturally sided with his boss.
But he always felt uneasy about handing over his years of planning to someone else.
And I always feel like I've lost something.
"Alright, I know what you're thinking. We're not at a loss this time either."
At least we've established a foothold in this place and let them know who's in charge here.
Chapter 363 Too Many Considerations
They used to act so arrogantly and never cared about anyone's feelings.
This time, they've openly and fairly opposed us.
I know exactly what they're thinking right now.
Sometimes I just see through things but choose not to say anything, and I'm too lazy to bother with them.
Hearing what their leader said, they still felt quite uncomfortable.
They became even more convinced that everything at this moment was far beyond their imagination.
It was even more surprising than they had expected, although they had always thought they would get things done.
But now it seems that there is a high probability that it is somewhat dangerous.
Moreover, Xu Lei was also very clever, exceeding all their previous expectations.
He knew that if he continued like this, he would cause a lot of trouble in the future, so he never fell out with Li Chunlin from the beginning.
At least everyone can maintain a certain level of dignity. If everyone works together on this kind of issue, then it's fine.
What I fear most is that they might cause some trouble in this matter.
When that time comes, they may not be able to face it as calmly as they imagine.
"I see that this big guy has been quite focused lately, which shows that our plan was pretty good from the beginning."
However, there are some things I need to figure out clearly right now, so that my subordinates don't make mistakes.
Xu Lei's words were also pointed, and 300 also made it clear to them that they needed to be tolerant when doing things here.
Instead of always forcing yourself to rush in, that's what cowards do.
"These next few days, everyone keep your eyes peeled. I'm afraid this matter will definitely cause trouble for us."
Although it doesn't seem like a big deal on the surface, we hope the baby boy won't cause any problems later.
We still need to be more shrewd about everything; we can't just let things slide like this.
Xu Lei's words served as a reminder to Xiao Qiang, making him realize that things were not over yet.
I can't let my guard down like this; instead, I need to raise my spirits again.
We must not let ourselves be manipulated like this, or it will be too late to regret it then.
So just thinking about this makes me feel incredibly terrible.
"Boss, can't we just pretend nothing happened... or are we just going to have some tea?"
If we acted as if this had never happened, wouldn't that make us seem a bit cowardly?
That guy surnamed Li made such a mess of things before, we can't just muddy the waters.
Just walk away like that; there's no such thing as a free lunch.
I thought this matter would just pass if we all kept quiet about it, but he really had the nerve to ask me for it.
They would never do such a thing, even if it meant death; they thought they had everything under control.
He acts like he's the only smart person in the world; he imagines everything to be so amazing, he's incredibly arrogant.
Xiao Qiang's words almost made Xu Lei laugh; he really didn't know that this kid had such backbone.
So I felt much more relaxed, knowing that everyone was holding their breath in this situation.
Moreover, they haven't explained things clearly or made things explicit as they had before.
“I know you’re angry, but don’t worry, we’ll get it out sooner or later. Here’s what we’re doing.”
"It's also to save face for him. We can't let the old man scold us; let him lower his head and apologize."
Xiaoqiang heard this and everyone thought it made sense, but he just couldn't convince himself.
How could they let this guy go so easily? So he was extremely unhappy and resentful.
On the day of the event, Xu Lei had been waiting in the teahouse for nearly half an hour, but he still hadn't arrived.
Zhao Chunlei and Hong Liulou also received the news at this moment, and knew that the guy would not back down so easily.
Xu Lei's matter will likely be a long road ahead, and Zhao Chunlei is still wondering if this whole thing is crazy.
"Besides dealing with Xu Lei and him, Li Zhenlin has no other way out."
He thought he had done something remarkable, but little did he know that everything he had done was pushing him into the abyss.
He's still showing off like this, as if everyone has to revolve around him.
(bhbj) But little did they know, we had already secured our position.
Hearing all of this, Zhao Chunlei nodded silently.
Xu Lei was extremely busy because he had a lot of things to do.
We can't just focus on this all at once; we also need to prepare for what's to come.
Although Li Zhenlin had been waiting for him to come over and proceed with the next step of the handover.
But Xu Lei didn't have time for all that fancy stuff; he had already given him a chance.
He's useless himself, yet he's coming to us to complain about being poor.
Xu Lei wouldn't care about his bad habit, even though Xiao Qiang knew that there was nothing wrong with what his boss was doing.
Ultimately, I still had some lingering worries.
"Boss, are we really not going to meet Li Zhenlin yet? I'm afraid it will take too long to wait."
That guy surnamed Li is definitely going to be anxious, especially since these kinds of chambers of commerce events happen every month.
Xu Lei was tying his tie at the moment, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, seemingly very excited and concerned about this chamber of commerce meeting.
"You still don't quite understand. This time it's not just the usual formalities."
It's a genuine Sino-foreign joint venture. I've always wanted to open up the international market, and now is a great opportunity.
The previous discussions with those foreigners didn't go very smoothly, so this is definitely an excellent opportunity for us.
"As long as we seize this opportunity, everything will be in our own hands."
Seeing Xu Lei's enthusiastic and ambitious expression, Xiao Qiang simply nodded slightly.
But he still scratched the back of his head, seemingly understanding, as he really didn't know much about these international markets.
"I told you to take another course in international trade, but you just wouldn't listen."
"So you insist on being lazy, now you don't understand, do you? If you keep going like this, you'll fall behind me!"
Xiaoqiang felt a headache every time he went to class and felt somewhat helpless.
Every time he heard those words, he felt like he was about to yawn; how could he possibly listen attentively?
"It's alright, boss. I'll run errands for you for the rest of my life. As for those things that look very difficult to understand..."
I don't plan to study light anymore. The marketing and accounting courses I took last time almost killed me.
If this continues, I'd rather go back to guarding the warehouse.
Xiao Qiang's words made Xu Lei laugh heartily.
"With your talent now, I won't put you back to guard the warehouse. I won't allow you to slack off."
Xu Lei and Xiao Qiang chatted and laughed, creating a wonderful atmosphere.
Xiao Qiang has witnessed quite a few things these past few days as he travels around with Xu Lei.
Li Zhenlin was also waiting to meet Xu Lei, but he learned that Xu Lei was going to attend some kind of business meeting that day.
Chapter 364: A Show of Power
It was obvious that they didn't take it seriously, and I was incredibly angry. They were clearly trying to intimidate me.
Even knowing all this, he didn't know how to refute it, and the people below saw that Li Zhenlin's face had turned black.
Feeling somewhat helpless, Zhao Chunlei, being a fence-sitter, naturally had to show up.
Although Xu Lei knew that he needed someone he knew to help him smooth things over during the talks, he was still very aware of the situation.
Otherwise, this matter will eventually become unmanageable, and Li Zhenlin is extremely concerned about his reputation.
Therefore, Xu Lei had to let this matter continue quietly.
Actually, he felt quite helpless, as he hadn't done anything wrong in this matter.
