Chapter 531 - Letting Haber Pay the Construction Bill

Chapter 531: Letting Haber Pay the Construction Bill (Part One)

– In the morning –
Xu Cheng did a lazy stretch on the balcony. Seeing Lin Chuxue still under the quilt sleeping, he gently called out to her,
Honey, wanna get up and see the sunrise?


I’m too tired, you can watch,
Lin Chuxue said weakly and fell back to sleep.
Last night, after the two of them went back and forth all the way into midnight, they finally took the step forward. But then after that, Lin Chuxue began to regret it, because Xu Cheng was too much!
It naturally hurts the first time, but that b@stard said it was also his first time so he needed to practice and study more, and Lin Chuxue began to feel like she had been tricked.
Due to the lack of sleep plus excessive exercise, she could barely move now.
Xu Cheng also felt that the gloom in his heart became lighter.
Turning around to look at the woman resting lazily on the bed curled up like a cat, he subconsciously smiled. Walking to the bedside, he leaned over and gave her a kiss.

I will go and order a meal for you.

Then, Xu Cheng put on his clothes and walked out of the suite.
The highest floor of the hotel was its buffet floor, and Haber had been waiting there for a long time.
Seeing Xu Cheng coming over, he waved and asked,
Where’s Nicole?


Too tired, needs more sleep.
When Xu Cheng said that, there was a hint of proudness in his voice.
Haber’s hand that was holding the folk paused a moment. Then, looking at Xu Cheng, he smiled and sighed,
It’s good to be young. My wife would never get this tired. Young man, I still have to tell you, in the end, there are only cows that die from exhaustion, but no field that had too much plowing.


This is the difference between you and me.
Xu Cheng picked up some food, sat down, and said,
This time, I came because I really have some favor to ask from you. I know you wouldn’t shy away.

Haber:
I know you are up to something, or you think I would come here this early to wait for you? Just tell me.


Find me a construction team, one that you can trust.
Xu Cheng said,
It’s best if it’s from your country.
He wouldn’t trust it if it was a team from other countries and would be afraid of being exposed. But, the Arab Emirates usually wouldn’t want to get involved in international affairs. Their teams were very professional in terms of sticking strictly to business, and they knew how to remain impartial.
Haber took a sip of his black coffee and asked,
No problem, where to? What kind of construction project? Are you planning to build the tallest skyscraper in the world or something?


No.
Xu Cheng said,
You just need to tell me, can you find me one? The place they will be going will be a bit dangerous, but I can guarantee their safety.


I might not believe if someone else mentioned safety, but if you say it, then I wouldn’t doubt it at all. Where to?
Haber asked nonchalantly.

The Land of Mercenaries,
Xu Cheng nonchalantly replied.
Puuuf!
Haber almost spouted out his coffee as he stared at Xu Cheng with his eyes wide open and said,
What are you doing there? It’s not like you are short on money or anything. That kind of place just has a bunch of little outlaw dictators that couldn’t get political asylum and ended up dwelling there. If a person isn’t out of options, they wouldn’t go to that kind of chaotic place. You don’t lack money, what are you doing there? If you are short on money, you can tell me. Be my bodyguard, I can give you ten million dollars per year.

Xu Cheng was speechless.
That salary isn’t even higher than the one I gave to my lawyer. Are you sure that’s one for a bodyguard rather than a nanny?

Haber:
If you are serious about being my bodyguard, I can give you 100 million a year, deal?


Nope, I’m not short on money,
Xu Cheng said.

Then what are you doing at a place like that? If you are going there for their oil, then every year, I can let you be the agent of 10% of our royal family’s oil reserve to sell. Good, huh?
Haber asked.

Chapter 531: Letting Haber Pay the Construction Bill (Part Two)


That kind of money isn’t appetizing for me at all.
Xu Cheng said,
You just need to find me a team.


It will be very difficult.
Haber smacked his lips and said,
You know that I have a sensitive identity. Arabia would never get involved in those kinds of things. To be blunt, the Land of Mercenaries is basically the battlefield training ground for all the big nations to test out their weapons and exercise their troops. I notice that you really are a unique guy, how big is your heart, really? Why do you always want to get involved with this kind of sh-t?


I didn’t say you will be helping me for free. If you agree, then I think I can give you a pretty good compensation.


Don’t mention money to me. To other people, money is almighty, but to me, it’s just a bunch of paper that I can never finish spending. If you really want to give me paper as a gift, then I will just burn it.
Haber looked like he despised money like it was just crap.
Xu Cheng glanced at him and faintly smiled.
Don’t regret it then. Since you don’t want to hook me up this partnership, then oh well, I will find someone else. I think there are many people in the world that are willing to cooperate with me.

Hearing this, Haber indeed became a bit curious.
He pulled on Xu Cheng’s arm and said,
Wait a minute, you aren’t that kind of a vulgar guy that would only talk about money all day. But, you know as well, Arab royalty like me really have seen all that there is to see and experience in this world. Even things like gold and diamonds are treated like plastic garbage by us. But since you sound this confident in bringing up the offer to me, then I think this gift is definitely not simple. And judging by how you didn’t force the deal at all and walked away right after I refused, that means your bargaining chip really is something interesting. Come on, don’t act mysterious with me. Just tell me, what is it?

Xu Cheng said,
Tell me first, are you going to help me find the construction team or not?

Haber struggled for a bit. After looking at Xu Cheng for a long time, he said to him,
Let me make it clear again, I won’t interfere with anything in the Land of Mercenaries, okay? I don’t care who’s behind you, but us Arabs aren’t gonna participate in it.

Xu Cheng raised an
Okay
gesture.
Are you helping or not?


Yeah!
Haber laughed.
You know, rich people like us, we just lack excitement in our lives. Your way of gambling does attract me, I hope your thing can also attract me.

Xu Cheng,
I also need you to just conveniently pay for the construction project too. My team did an estimate, the entire underground construction project will cost about a billion dollars.

Haber was shocked.
You want me to pay? Wait a second, underground?

His eyes glared open.
What the f-ck are you making? An underground weapon factory? Are you getting into firearm dealing now?

Xu Cheng mocked with a smile,
Didn’t you say money is just paper to you?

Haber:
Even if it’s paper, a billion dollars is gonna be about 100 tons of paper, that can crush people to death! Just manufacturing costs alone, how many trees do we have to chop to make into enough paper to be worth a billion? You also know, Arabia is short on fresh water, and greeneries are like our lifeline. How many trees do we have to chop and how much water went into feeding those trees? This isn’t a matter about money anymore.

Xu Cheng was speechless.
This is the first time I heard someone express their love for money so beautifully. Why don’t you be an ambassador for the world’s environmental protection association? Just say to not use cash at all and just burn it all.

Haber said eloquently and righteously,
I’ve thought about that too, burning my own money to show the world my big heart and my commitment in protecting the environment, but then, after I was reminded how burning the money would contribute to air pollution, I gave up. But from then on, I would firmly deny any cash transactions and only do bank transfers. I’m doing this to show the world how much I love the environment.

Xu Cheng turned around and began walking.
Then never mind.

Haber then pulled him back again.
Come on, man, don’t be like this. Just tell me first, what present are you going to prepare for me? Buddy, you already piqued my interest and curiosity…
