Chapter 1396 Thank you so much l癶l for the gift king!
Chen Mu summoned Xu Yueji and gave her some instructions, telling her to do as instructed tomorrow.
"Mr. Chen, we need your orders to mobilize these."
“I authorize you,” Chen Mu said.
Chen Mu wasn't worried. He was just staying in Wangjiang City, so authorizing Xu Yueji for one day wouldn't be a problem.
Xu Yueji is very thoughtful; she does a better job than many of her subordinates.
After finishing these tasks, Chen Mu went to the hot spring on the terrace.
He took off his clothes and stepped into the circular hot tub.
The hot spring pool was bubbling and steaming, with water gushing upwards in bursts from the center, like a spring.
This is hot spring water pumped from hundreds of meters underground. It is piped directly into the soaking pool on the rooftop terrace.
The pipes were also infused with pure, eerie energy.
The hot spring water drawn up has a silky smooth texture. Soaking in it feels like being immersed in silk.
It must be said that the hot spring water in the luxurious resort is much more comfortable than the bath water in the villa's bathtub.
However, the villa has a bathhouse where Princess Xuyue can scrub the body, which is quite unique.
While Chen Mu was taking a bath, the housekeeper placed a glass of watermelon juice and a small plate of fruit in front of him.
To enhance the view, no walls or even glass were built in front of the hot spring pool.
Chen Mu lay half-reclined in the hot tub, where he could see the beautiful night view below.
For Chen Mu, the Ghost Lord, there was no question of safety; he had no need to worry about falling to his death.
After taking a bath, Chen Mu went to the lounge and asked the bartender to make him a cocktail.
A slightly tipsy night has a unique charm.
------------------
It was a little after six o'clock the next morning.
Chen Mu woke up early in the morning.
Chen Mu woke up very early today because he had gone to bed early after getting a little tipsy last night.
He went to the restaurant for breakfast, then changed into clean sportswear, dressed neatly, and left the luxurious resort.
Chen Mu did not return to the Mountain and Water Courtyard, but instead headed towards the courthouse.
This morning at 10:00 AM, he is going to convene a meeting here with the senior management.
After a night's rest, Chen Mu was full of energy.
His mind was very clear now. While on the road, sitting in the back seat with the driver, he had already considered most of the specific details.
Upon arriving at the courthouse, Chen Mu had just gotten out of the car when he saw the dejected village chief.
Beside the lost village chief were Cha Cha, Xiao Xi, Bao Bao (being held by Cha Cha), Xiao Shi and Men Tou, the Duke, the Lord of Fallen, the Lord of Terror, the Venerable of Extravagance, Li Xiaoxiao, Song Qing... a large group of powerful figures.
In addition, Xiao Wan is still in the Forbidden House and hasn't arrived yet (Chen Mu had Xu Yueji notify him, but he probably stayed up all night playing games and didn't see the message).
And Xiaoye, Wilderness Wanderer, Ye Changsheng, Tian Shihan, Lin Shanmu, and others who are away on business. They are on their way and should be a little while away.
It can be said that almost all of Chen Mu's like-minded friends have come to his aid since he started his business.
Among them, Ye Changsheng, Tian Shihan, and Lin Shanmu, although still belonging to the Storm Defense Line, have close cooperation with Wangjiang Shouwang and are actually considered to be on their own.
Needless to say, Ye Changsheng was already one of the army's generals.
Tian Shih-Han, on the other hand, was deeply involved in the defense of the desert city;
The Linshan Tomb is even a guardian of the plains' granary, shouldering the responsibility of ensuring food security while overlooking the river.
The top executives of Wangjiang Shouwang have all gathered here.
The other Lords of Hell, Lord of Blood Night, Little Void... either couldn't show up or had other reasons for not appearing at the event.
"You've all arrived quite early," Chen Mu said with a smile, inviting everyone inside for breakfast.
Meanwhile, the courthouse has prepared breakfast for everyone for the meeting.
It had been a long time since we'd seen each other, and many of these high-level executives were already acquainted with each other. It was just that they rarely met due to work commitments.
Therefore, it was a rare opportunity for us to meet today, and the gathering of everyone made it especially lively.
The village chief and the duke were the oldest. They were chatting together, discussing the important matter of the Watchtower over the river.
The Lord of Fallenness, the Lord of Terror, and the Lord of Extravagance exchanged bewildered glances. As lords of Hell, and having previously clashed, their reunion created an awkward and delicate atmosphere.
The three were at a loss for words when the Fallen Lord pulled out a deck of cards and asked, "Want to play cards? Want to play something fun?"
The Lord of Terror declared, "I'm afraid of losing."
The extravagant man slapped his forehead and pulled out his phone. "Speaking of playing cards, I suddenly remembered that I caught a fish while playing cards at sea."
"Look how big this fish is! It's almost two meters long. It's the biggest fish I've ever caught in my life."
As she spoke, the "Extravagant King" scrolled through photos in her phone's album.
The person at the storefront is holding chocolates and playing with Xiaoxi.
Li Xiaoxiao was busy running around, guessing that this breakfast was also prepared by the chef sent by her Midnight Hotel.
Song Qing wore glasses and had a refined and scholarly appearance.
Cha Cha, holding Bao Bao, sat down next to Chen Mu. Xiao Shi, having nothing else to do, came over to tease Bao Bao, which made Bao Bao quite agitated.
While eating, Chen Mu heard the loud, boisterous voices of a wilderness wanderer coming from outside.
Chen Mu knew that the remaining high-ranking officials had also rushed over.
As expected, Tian Shihhan, Ye Changsheng, Xiao Ye, and Wilderness Wanderer also walked in from outside.
When Tian Shihhan entered, the first thing she looked at was Chen Mu. She wanted to go up and greet him, but she didn't know what to say, and hesitated for a moment.
Chen Mu greeted her after he saw her.
Ye Changsheng then joined the table with the Lost Village Chief and had a drink with the Duke.
After Xiaoye arrived, she came to Chen Mu's side, seemingly wanting to report on her work.
Chen Mu gestured with his hand to shush, then gave Xiao Ye a wicked smile. Chen Mu meant, "Don't talk now, let's eat."
Xiaoye is working every day, and she's almost been turned into a workaholic.
Seeing Xiaoye like this, Chen Mu also felt somewhat guilty.
After the Wild Wanderer ran in, he came over to Chen Mu with a grin and sat down right next to him.
Unexpectedly, the wilderness wanderer slipped and accidentally spilled a drink all over Bao Bao.
Bao Bao, who was already irritated by Xiao Shi's antics, almost blew his breath away from being annoyed.
Cha Cha brought over a small basin, and together with Tian Shih-Han, they soaked Bao Bao in it.
Seeing Bao Bao soaking in the water, Xiao Shi suddenly remembered a nickname she had given Bao Bao a long time ago.
“Hakimed!” Xiao Shi said.
The wilderness wanderer standing nearby rolled his eyes at Xiao Shi, "What Hakimes? That's too profound, I don't understand."
The nickname you gave me is completely undeserving.
Xiao Shi was unconvinced, "Then you come up with one?"
The ronin said, "What's so difficult about that!"
Look, it's a Hakimi (a type of fish), and it's floating on the water. It's definitely a buoyancy-based fish!
