116: Nangong Yan

Who are you?

Sitting in the back row, Li Xiao, who possessed 2.4 million HP, felt no fear and asked calmly.

One of the burly men took off his sunglasses, bent over, and stuck his head into the window: "Mr. Li Xiao, our boss wants to see you."

Your boss? Li Xiao was stunned for a moment; he did not seem to recall knowing any big shots.

Please get out of the car and come with us. Rest assured, we have absolutely no ill intentions.

Li Xiao vaguely felt that things were not that simple. He casually opened the car door, but Zhao Feipeng whispered a warning: "Boss, be careful of a trap!"

It is fine. I am not afraid of traps. You go to the hotel where we stayed last time and wait for me.

Li Xiao got out of the car. These burly men offered quite thoughtful service; some opened the door, and others stood guard.

A luxury civilian off-road vehicle was truly comfortable, much better than the car Li Xiao had casually found. Except for the privacy glass that was as dark as could be, everything else made Li Xiao want to lie down on the seat and sleep.

The car drove for nearly an hour, passing through the bustling downtown of Yun City, and arrived at an abandoned campus in the north.

As soon as he got out of the car, Li Xiao saw rows of various military off-road vehicles and armored vehicles on the old main football field, and he suddenly had a clue.

Several bodyguards in black led him to a building that looked like an auditorium. Once inside, the first thing he heard was a sound like ghosts wailing and wolves howling.

Farewell tumor... yesterday's AI disease, shouldn't have used chicken, dried fish flavor mouth has chicken essence...

What the hell! What kind of song is this!

Li Xiao was nauseated on the spot. Before he could recall the original singer, the song changed again.

Meng Zhong Biao Luo Yu Sai Le Shen...

Damn! I cannot take it!

Is this really a Cantonese song?

Li Xiao walked a few quick steps; he wanted to see what kind of talent could sing a song that made people from Guangdong want to kill someone after hearing it.

On the large stage at the front of the auditorium, he saw a fat person wearing a floral shirt and white boxers.

Yes, it was a fat person whose belly looked like two people could not even wrap their arms around it. This fat person looked very young, at most a year or two older than him.

She was holding the microphone, completely intoxicated, until a bodyguard in black walked up and said a few words to her, and then she stopped.

When she saw Li Xiao, she immediately raised the microphone and shouted loudly: "Oh! What a rare guest! Brother Li Xiao, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

The fat person rushed off the stage and ran towards him. Li Xiao saw her flab trembling and even vaguely worried about the beautiful floor of the auditorium.

This fat person's expression was extremely enthusiastic, and she opened her arms to pounce on him. How could Li Xiao dare to catch her? If she hugged him, he might lose his life.

So Li Xiao hurriedly retreated a step, and the fat person pounced into thin air, which made her a bit embarrassed. She paused for a moment before saying awkwardly: "Brother Li Xiao, sorry. I was just too excited. I have long heard of your reputation, and today I finally get to meet you."

Li Xiao rolled his eyes and asked suspiciously: "And you are?"

Ah, I forgot to introduce myself!

The fat person quickly took out a business card and handed it over. Li Xiao looked closely and saw the words Nangong Technology Group written on it.

My surname is Nangong, and my given name is Yan. I am currently the CEO of the Tian Yu Region for Nangong Technology Group, specifically responsible for all weapon and equipment sales and after-sales maintenance within the Tianyu Republic.

Nangong Technology... Tsk tsk, I have noticed that you arms dealers all like to use the word 'technology', do you not?

Haha, Brother Li Xiao, you speak very interestingly! Nangong Yan said carelessly: Actually, I also think it is a bit repetitive, but, well, technology has always served the military first. Adding a bit of 'technology' makes one seem more powerful.

Nangong Yan looked like she had a carefree and overly familiar personality, but Li Xiao believed that this person was definitely a smiling tiger with a very deep hidden agenda; otherwise, she could not have held the position of a regional president.

Nangong Technology, how come I have not heard of this arms company? Li Xiao asked deliberately to find fault.

Nangong Yan did not show any change in expression upon hearing Li Xiao's obviously mocking words. She still kept a smile on her face and said: Haha, Brother Li Xiao might be new to this industry, and since you started by cooperating with the international arms giant Stark, you naturally have high standards.

Our Nangong Technology Group does not have a high market share in the global arms trade, but we are not nobodies either. Among all international equipment companies, our Nangong Technology can at least rank in the top ten.

Top ten? Li Xiao raised an eyebrow, looking slightly indifferent.

Seeing Li Xiao's slight contempt, Nangong Yan said: Yes, our company's total sales are indeed not very outstanding, but we are different from department stores like Stark that take any order.

We only focus on quality, not quantity. Our after-sales service is definitely second to none in the world. We...

Alright, alright, so President Nangong, I wonder why exactly you brought me here?

This fat person could really talk, but Li Xiao did not have that much time to listen to her talk about the company's prestige.

Aha, actually it is nothing. I heard that Brother Li Xiao has mastered a method to increase vehicle durability and has already started cooperating with Tony Beldo under the Stark Company.

So?

Nangong Yan clapped her hands and said sincerely: Tony is too unscrupulous. Do you know how much he is selling the infantry fighting vehicles you upgraded for?

Five hundred and fifty thousand! The original price was two hundred thousand, more than double, yet he only gives you eighty thousand. Is this not bullying an honest person?

Li Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly. This Nangong Yan had some influence to clearly know the details of his transaction with Tony. It seemed she was not as simple as she looked.

What, are you standing up for me?

Of course. If you are willing to cooperate with me, I can give you a 50-50 split!

Nangong Yan finally revealed her purpose. In fact, when the other party mentioned Tony, Li Xiao already knew what she wanted to do.

A 50-50 split, sounds pretty good. But I have already reached an agreement with Tianma, and besides, do you have a strong enough background in the Black Hawk Empire?

Nangong Yan shook her finger and said confidently: The Black Hawk Empire never interferes in arms sales. They only care about whether the 'Outsiders' have obtained equipment from us.

And you and Tony only have a verbal agreement, and what you signed was just an alliance, not a breach of contract.

You have certainly considered things thoroughly for me. However, if I cooperate with you, I am afraid Tony will not let me off, because I purchased a batch of infantry fighting vehicles from him, and he will definitely notify the Black Hawk Empire to find trouble for me.
