Chapter 502: Danger Lurks

Under the gaze of Yan Feilin and the others, Chu Yunfan and Xu Baiwan made their way to a corner of the hall and sat opposite each other.

“Mr. Chu, I’ve heard a lot about you. Do you mind if I call you by your name?” Xu Baiwan said with a smile as he looked at Chu Yunfan

“Of course. Your name is Xu Baiwan?” Chu Yunfan looked at Xu Baiwan with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

“That’s right. That’s my real name.” Xu Baiwan revealed a helpless smile. He understood the tone behind Chu Yunfan’s puzzled expression. “You can just call me by my name.”

This name sounded like a nickname, not a real name. Ever since young, Xu Baiwan had been teased for it.

“You’ve heard of me?” Chu Yunfan asked.

“Indeed I have. We businessmen always pay special attention to young talents like you. In fact, ever since you became the champion of the instructor competition, your information was already entered into our database. You became even more prominent after you defeated Jiang Pengfei.” Xu Baiwan smiled.

“You guys sure act quickly,” Chu Yunfan said with a faint smile after being stunned for a moment.

“Business is business. Wuwei’s philosophy is that business is about connections. As long as you have a wide network that is willing to help you, anything can be done at lightning speed,” Xu Baiwan said with a smile.

Chu Yunfan gave Xu Baiwan a thumbs up in his heart. If a business owner could have friends all over the world, there was no doubt that a lot of things would be smooth sailing.

There was no need for sincerity. As long as everyone contributed, the benefits they would get back would be much greater.

It was certainly not easy to become Wuwei’s ally. Those who wanted to become Wuwei’s friends had to become the elites among the elites.

This was especially so for Xu Baiwan who was one of the young masters of Wuwei. It was unlikely for any ordinary Federation University student to catch his eye.

......

“If you’ve gathered information about me, you should know about the life and death match between me and Jiang Lingxiao. There’s only half a year left. Within half a year, I might die. Do you still feel that it’s worth it?” Chu Yunfan said indifferently.

“Chu Yunfan, you sure are quick-witted. Then, let me make myself clear. There’s no reason to not invest when there’s potential money to be made. For those like you, if even one out of ten of you manage to get ahead, the rate of return for use will be enough,” Xu Baiwan said, “Actually, most of those in Wuwei do not think highly of you, but I beg to differ. Although there’s a huge difference between you and Jiang Lingxiao, I’ve looked through your information. You’ve only started displaying your might in the last year. It’s not like you stand no chance of winning, so I’m willing to ally myself with you. The one million I gave you is just a small greeting gift and does not reflect the amount of respect I have for you.”

“Hahaha, one million yuan as a greeting gift. What a huge sum.” Chu Yunfan laughed heartily.

“To an ordinary person, one million might be an amount that they would never be able to accumulate in their entire lifetime. But to you and me, it’s just a getting-to-know-you gift. I know that you have an alchemy company under your name and that you have the patent of an improved pill formula in your hands,” Xu Baiwan said, “Your company’s future is simply limitless. It will rake in at least a few ten billion worth of profit. So, I’d love to be friends with you.”

“Having more friends and more connections is certainly not a problem,” Chu Yunfan said.

“Although, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. If there isn’t enough interest, even friends will inevitably fade. I do have a business proposal that I’d like to discuss with you. Would you be interested to hear it?” Xu Baiwan spoke with confidence.

At this moment, Chu Yunfan felt that Wuwei was indeed worthy of its reputation as one of the three largest financial conglomerates within the Federation. His participation in the gravity plate test was purely a spur-of-the-moment idea and he had not expected anything out of it. But in such a short period, the other party had already dug up so much information on him. Although it was just some superficial information, it was enough to show that these behemoths were definitely worthy of their reputation.

“Go right ahead. If it’s suitable, I don’t see a problem with it,” Chu Yunfan said.

“I know of Shanhe Alchemy. The pills you refine are sold through various distribution channels, right? Well, Wuwei has the best distribution channels in the entire Federation. With our help, within a year, your company’s medicinal pills will reach the entire human society. Be it within the Federation territories or overseas,” Xu Baiwan said.

Chu Yunfan was intrigued when he heard this. Although online shopping was a very advanced platform now, distribution channels in the real world were still important. To build up their own distribution network, Shanhe would take at least another 20 to 30 years to achieve such a thing with their current level of ability. At this time, relying on agents and distributors from all over the world was indeed the best way forward.

Without a doubt, Wuwei had the best distribution channels in the entire Federation. With their help, Shanhe’s profit would increase tenfold.

There were two factors that restricted Shanhe’s development. One was their own production capacity, and the other was their distribution channels. These things could not be solved overnight, but there were shortcuts. Naturally, Chu Yunfan found this to be a good proposal.

“Then, happy working together,” Xu Baiwan said with a smile. As for the more detailed contract, it would naturally be handled by the people below, so there was nothing for them to fuss over.

Xu Baiwan was serious about establishing cooperation with Chu Yunfan because of Chu Yunfan’s reputation. Many companies tried to get in the way of Wuwei every year, but not everyone had such an opportunity.

Of course, the future of Shanhe Alchemy itself was very promising to Xu Baiwan. Not only was Chu Yunfan himself powerful, but he also had an alchemy company with an unlimited future. At this moment, his position in Xu Baiwan’s heart had soared to one of the highest levels. As long as Chu Yunfan did not die in half a year, he would definitely soar to the sky like a phoenix rising from the ashes.

Therefore, Xu Baiwan did not take Jiang Yunfei’s words seriously. Although Jiang Yunfei was worthy enough to be roped in by Wuwei, his worth was clearly far from Chu Yunfan.

“Oh, right. When I was looking through the information just now, I found something interesting. It’s about you. Would you like to hear it?” Xu Baiwan said.

“It’s something I don’t know about?” Chu Yunfan said as a serious look crossed his face.

“You’ll be heading to Star Myriad Island tomorrow, right? From what I know, it seems like the Green Cloths have accepted a mission to assassinate you. A young master of the Green Cloths will be personally making this trip, and you’re his graduation assessment mission.”
