Trillionaire's Slice of Life

His expression grew slightly solemn as he began to speak:

"Then we have no choice but to go to the rental company."

To his surprise, Jiang Tao shook his head a second time, his face serious, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"For someone whom the big boss himself takes seriously, cars worth just a hundred or two hundred thousand simply won't cut it, and even million-dollar cars are not impressive enough.

Moreover, they must have a unified style, otherwise, it'll be a mess, with one model here, another there, black ones, white ones; it will look ridiculous. Even if we ask a rental company for dozens of uniformly styled luxury cars all at once... that would also be difficult.

The main issue is that we got the news too late. The guest is arriving tomorrow, we only have today to prepare, it's too rush."

"If this won't do and that won't do, then what do you suggest we do?"

Assistant Zhang Ailun scratched his head, and Jiang Tao waved him off to leave; he didn't expect these brawny underlings, who had more muscle than brains, to come up with any ideas.

After the office door was closed, leaving Jiang Tao alone in the spacious office, he hesitated for a moment but then picked up the phone and dialed a number.

Half a minute later, the person on the other end of the phone answered, and Jiang Tao spoke up boldly:

"Director Fan, hello, I am Jiang Tao, president of Haitao Detective Agency, we've met before."

On the other end, the head of the Fan family, Fan Zhijian, was momentarily taken aback, then promptly responded cheerfully:

"Ah, the company under Mr. Chu, right? Our two companies have been in touch recently. I've been meaning to find the time to visit your Haitao Detective Agency."

Jiang Tao exchanged pleasantries with the other party, and after a moment, he changed the tone of his voice, now slightly hesitant:

"Director Fan, I'm sorry to disturb you so early, but actually, there's a favor I would like to ask of you. Our Haitao Detective Agency is about to embark on a task and we need vehicles, but since our company has just been established, we do not have enough cars, so..."

Before he could finish, the head of the Fan family immediately burst out into hearty laughter.

"I thought it was something serious. It's a small matter. Our An Tianxia Security Company may not have anything else in abundance, but cars and people we have plenty of. Tell you what, just get in touch with our deputy director about how many vehicles you need, and I'll give our people a heads up, no problem."

"Thank you, Director Fan, for your strong support."

Jiang Tao hung up the phone and let out a small sigh of relief. This matter should not pose a big problem now.

The Fan family, being the fifth-ranked family in Magic Capital, their An Tianxia Security Company nearly monopolizes one-third of the security business in the entire Magic Capital, which employs thousands of people, far beyond what Haitao Detective Agency can compare.

For a family like the Fans with their foundation, acquiring dozens of unified luxurious million-dollar cars is a piece of cake.

He waited for a few minutes, and then called one of the Fan family's deputy directors.

Two minutes later, having received a satisfying answer, Jiang Tao hung up the phone amidst repeated thanks. The vehicle issue was resolved,

But this did not mean all the problems were solved. Jiang Tao took out a map of Magic Capital and then began to carefully study the route from Nanhong Airport to Tianxiangyuan Grand Hotel.

The important guest would be arriving directly from the USA to Magic Capital's Nanhong Airport, and Jiang Tao needed to arrange for someone to pick the guest up and take them to the Tianxiangyuan Grand Hotel, where the big boss would be waiting.

Although there shouldn't be any problems tomorrow, he could not help but consider contingency plans for various emergencies.

For instance, if a certain road was congested, which alternate route should be taken, or if an emergency occurred, how to deal with it quickly and effectively...

At eleven in the morning, Jiang Tao, together with his two assistants, three squadron leaders, and six team leaders, was discussing emergency contingency plans when suddenly the office door burst open, and then an agent promptly reported:

"Report to the president, dozens of luxury cars have arrived at the gate; they say they're from An Tianxia Security Company."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tao immediately stood up, waved his hand grandly, and said loudly:

"It's our own people, let them in straight away."

The agent immediately turned and left, and soon after, a wave of noise came from downstairs. Jiang Tao, with a slight frown, stood up slowly and moved to the large floor-to-ceiling window behind his desk. Looking down, he saw a solemn procession of luxury cars continuously moving into the courtyard.

"Damn, the Fan family really goes all out. The first ten cars are Red Chess L5s, right? These are the face of our Hua Country, not just something you can buy with money."

Assistant Zhang Ailun was also leaning in to look down from the floor-to-ceiling window, and from his envious expression, it seemed he couldn't wait to run down and experience the prestige of the Red Chess.

"The ones behind are ten Rolls-Royces and ten Lincolns, followed by ten Bentleys. The Fan family really lives up to its decades of heritage; just these cars alone must be worth several hundred million."

"Never mind Rolls-Royce and Lincoln; those cars can be bought with money. But do you think you can buy a Red Chess if you have the money?"

Watching the luxurious fleet of cars neatly parked in the courtyard from the window, Jiang Tao, who had returned his gaze, said earnestly:

"Now that everything is ready, the only thing left is to satisfy the big boss tomorrow. If the big boss gives the nod, after this task, I'll apply to the big boss to equip our company with dozens of luxury cars, definitely no less than the Fan family."

As he finished speaking, the dozen rugged men in the office immediately lit up with anticipation.

"But let me make it clear upfront, if anyone messes up tomorrow, pack your things and leave."

...

Haitao Detective Agency had now entered a state of full readiness, from President Jiang Tao down to every agent, everyone was on high alert, and Tianxiangyuan International Hotel was in a similar state of preparedness.

Waking up from bed at six in the morning, Zhan Bingxue had no interest in morning jogging that day.
