Chapter 278: News from Old Triangle

In the evening, after 9 PM.

In a high-end restaurant in Longkou District, Dabai sat in his chair, holding a wine glass, talking endlessly about his experiences in Old Triangle: "Let me tell you, people say that place is poor, backward in thinking, can only grow opium and nothing else. But when I went this time, the changes there were really huge - completely different from our fixed impressions. Put it this way, in terms of economic potential, Dragon City might have some advantages compared to Old Triangle's capital Hanoi, but in terms of infrastructure, they're ahead of us now..."

Hearing this, Su Tiannan pursed his lips: "That place has only been peaceful for how many years? How could their infrastructure be better than Dragon City's?"

"It really is better than here," Zhou Tonghui immediately interjected: "Let me give you a detail - their main city subway line coverage can reach 80% of the urban area. What concept is this? From Hanoi's south to north, it takes less than an hour total. And here? Our subway isn't even completely built yet."

Su Tiannan was very shocked: "Old Triangle could develop so fast?"

"Of course! Old Triangle's leader is someone who shared life and death with the Chinese District leader. After Chinese District unified, 700,000 infrastructure workers were sent to Old Triangle - they gave money when needed, gave people when needed - how could development not be fast?" Zhou Tonghui explained softly. "Moreover... now in the whole Asian Alliance, the place exporting the most military supplies is Old Triangle - the whole world is at war, and they are the spokesperson outside Chinese District's gate."

"Right, Old Triangle's annual exports of arms, military supplies, and crude oil total hundreds of billions - such a big operation, how could they handle it alone?" Su Tianyu agreed. "Aren't these things transported from inland?"

"No, you're wrong there," Dabai immediately denied. "Now some of these things really aren't transported from inland."

"If not transported, could Old Triangle produce them themselves?" Su Tianyu replied pursing his lips.

"Some really are produced by them!" Su Tianbei immediately interjected. "You might not believe what I'm saying, but our supplier this time has their own arms factory - production, sales, all in one!"

Su Tianyu was shocked for a while: "Don't fucking bullshit - how could they have military industrial capacity?"

"Look, why would I lie to you?" Bai Hongbo replied blinking: "We went to the arms factory! Except for slightly higher-end military equipment they can't make, they can even assemble armored vehicles, and the parts are self-produced."

Hearing this, Su Tianyu felt somewhat dazed. Because since he could remember, he had never returned to the Chinese District - the information he knew was all from news, so he couldn't imagine that Old Triangle, which was still very poor and backward with constant warfare decades ago, could develop to this scale.

Bai Hongbo lowered his voice, saying to Su Tianyu and Yu Mingyuan: "I heard these arms factories were all established by the previous Western Pacification King, aiming to make Old Triangle an export port. And our current supplier seems to also have connections with the new Western Pacification King - someone with extensive influence... I'm not lying at all - even the toilet flush buttons in the villa where they hosted us were gold-plated...!"

"Hehe." Su Tianyu came to his senses: "Seems Zone One's information blockade works well - we who grew up here completely didn't know Old Triangle had developed like this."

Yu Mingyuan took a drink, saying with crossed arms: "Well in that case, this new supplier's leg is quite thick."

"If I were You Yifan, I'd immediately recognize the new supplier as godfather," Bai Hongbo said shamelessly. "Abundant production capacity, can supply without interruption, most importantly various military supplies are good quality and cheap. Damn it, if you bootlick them well, you can make money with eyes closed."

Hearing this, Su Tianyu immediately reprimanded: "Lower your voice - who knows if You Yifan's spies are in this room."

"Even if You Yifan himself came today, I'd still advise him to do this. This opportunity is really good - if you want to do military supplies resale, recognizing a godfather is the best approach," Bai Hongbo said pursing his lips. "We're just too small in scale, otherwise... I wouldn't want to miss this blood-bond opportunity either. Moreover, let me tell you, suppliers like Old Triangle aren't few - many big families now have the ability to supply independently. But this one You Yifan found should rank in the top three in comprehensive strength."

"Sigh, with our current scale, don't think about such things - let's just steadily do our work of threading needles," Su Tianyu said lighting a cigarette. "As long as You Yifan's business succeeds, it's enough if we can be more comfortable at Zha'nan port in future."

Everyone slowly nodded. Bai Hongbo took a drink of wine, suddenly saying: "Oh, right, a manager called Gui Mengjun came over with the supplier this time - he's the absolute authority in this family. Though we don't want to get involved in this business, I think laying some groundwork for relationships in advance is no problem. Otherwise... tomorrow or the day after, I'll try to arrange to meet him? See if we can sit down, have a meal or something."

"You can talk with him?"

"Didn't we go together with You Yifan's people? I had meals with him several times, flew back together - shouldn't be too hard to invite him out," Bai Hongbo said proudly. "After all, in socializing... I'm quite awesome!"

"Fine, then meet and sit down - one more friend means one more path," Yu Mingyuan immediately replied.

"Alright, I'll call him tonight." After Bai Hongbo nodded in response, he immediately asked Su Tianyu: "Hey, I heard you became blood brothers with extremists? Fuck, how much fake alcohol did you drink?"

"...When I became brothers with Tiger Brother, I brought you along too - we drank blood wine holding your photo."

"Fuck your mother!" Bai Hongbo pointed at Su Tianyu shouting: "For Dragon City's stability and unity, quickly report this person!"

......

Two days later, after 8 PM.

At the entrance of Tianfu Hotel in Longkou District, Su Miaomiao held her phone, hurriedly walking into the lobby saying: "Yeah, I'm here - which floor private room are you in?"

"I'm in 402," Su Tiannan replied helplessly. "Just signing something - need to be so urgent?"

"Sign quickly, otherwise I can't handle things at the association tomorrow. Wait for me - I'm coming up."

With that, Su Miaomiao hung up the phone, stepping toward the elevator.

"Bang!"

Just then, a group of people came around the corridor's blind corner - the leader holding a phone didn't see Su Miaomiao in time, directly bumping into her side.

"Ouch, watch where you're going, brother!" Su Miaomiao was almost knocked into a concrete pillar, replying with a slightly pained arm.

The leading man looked up, seeing Su Miaomiao's young and beautiful face, momentarily freezing in place.
