In the conference room of the Stellar Group, the senior members sat on both sides of a large square table, looking uneasy, and some even had cold sweat on their foreheads. Clad in a neat suit, Mo Yanqiu looked solemn.

“Ta, ta, ta…” Mo Yanqiu tapped lightly on the table with her fingers, and the weak voice was infinitely amplified in the dead silence, directly hitting the hearts of the stellar officials like a heavy hammer. Her eyes fell at the executives one by one, exuding a compelling cold light.

“Let’s put that video out,” Mo Yanqiu said after observing calmly for a while, and soon, a video was released on the big screen behind her.

The video showed a sturdy man wearing a gorgeous military dress and many unknown medals on his chest. He had a fat chin, and his small eyes appeared brilliant. He was talking endlessly at the moment, addressing a group of people as he read according to the manuscript.

“After nine months, we finally overthrew the stupid and evil Vasumi puppet government, and now, my dear citizens, a new world of light, freedom and hope has come. From today, we will be free from all injustice of oppression. However, on our land, there is a company which brutally enslaved our people, plundered our property, and robbed our land. The poor local people are suffering under the oppression of this foreign company. Their name is United Fruit Company!”

“As the chief leader of the Republic of Millica, I hereby make the following requests to this company:

1. All the assets of United Group in Millica must be nationalised.

2. Immediately withdraw all members of the United Group Company, do not move or damage the facilities, and leave all the facilities to the people of Millica.

3. To compensate our country for all the profits made in Millica, and never enter the territory of the Republic of Millica.”

The video ended there, and Mo Yanqiu’s icy gaze swept across the executives. She said, “I believe everyone has seen this video, so now, what should we do?”

For a moment, the executives did not dare to speak out. For the master of the Stellar Group, they had infinite respect and love. Without her, there would be no Stellar Group, and without it, there would be no stage for them to show their grand plans.

“What’s the matter? Could it be that even the Stellar Group who easily defeats any enemy, and controls the war situation loses its guts in the face of a warlord?”

“Boss, we can send a discussion group to negotiate.” At that time, an executive said.

“What is the possibility of success?” Mo Yanqiu asked.

“This…” He stopped talking.

“Or… just follow their proposal, let’s withdraw from the local area?” Another executive suggested.

“If we do this, they will only think that the Stellar Group is weak, and it’s not just these peoples who are eyeing the Stellar Group. One time patience means it would be disastrous in the future.”

“Boss, other than that, we have no other way.” Another executive said with a sullen face, “They just bullied us without the strong state support behind us. We are just a set up. A small company for more than a year, facing the deep-rooted tyrants in the local area, we can’t do anything about them!”

No, there is another way. Mo Yanqiu thought of the only real solution to the problem. The concept that the wealthy clan had been trying their best to instil in the commoners was still deeply embedded in their hearts.

The wealthy clan is invincible, so they did not think of this method, but…

Thinking of this, Mo Yanqiu tightly clenched her fist.

The Stellar Group had now turned into a beast that was about to get out of control. It was only tied by a thin chain. All Mo Yanqiu needed to do was to break the thin chain. At that time, they could certainly be saved, but this would mean that she had to open Pandora’s box and release a terrifying monstrous beast.

If I could have imagined that the Stellar Group would become like this, would I still make that decision?

Mo Yanqiu soon had her answer.

Yes, because from the beginning, there was only one choice in front of me.

Thinking of this, Mo Yanqiu stood up slowly, propped up the table with both hands. Exhausting all her strength, she said the following words to the executives gently. Word by word, they echoed clearly in the room.

“Contact the local opposition and provide them with ‘appropriate’ support. It’s time to show our fangs to the enemies.”

———————————————

The Republic of Millica, where the United Group Company resided.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Zahala. We have heard about your deeds, and we admire it.” In the living room of the United Group Company’s manor, Zhang Jichang, the local chief executive of United Group Company, and a local, poured a cup of coffee.

“I’m sorry, we can only give you spiritual encouragement.”

“But we need your financial support to buy arms!” the local said anxiously, “You have also seen the cruel rule of Tikaha. If you support me, I will definitely guarantee your legitimate interests in Millica.”

“I’m sorry, but this matter must be decided by the head office, and we can’t make a decision,” Zhang Jichang said calmly.

“They are terrorizing the region they rule!”

“We’re sorry, but…”

“We can take the gem mine as collateral!” Finally, Zahala threw out his trump card.

“Gem Mine?” Zhang Jichang’s eyes suddenly burst into light. “How big?”

“It’s very big, it’s a secret from the previous government, and not many people know about it,” Zahala said.

Zhang Jichang fell into intense thinking, and finally said disappointedly, “I’m sorry, but… I’ll answer the phone in a moment.” Then he picked up his satellite phone.

“Hello? Yes, manager, what? Yes, yes, yes.”

Zhang Jichang glanced at Zahala.

“What? Okay, I get it, mortgage? I think I’ve got it. Yes, yes, yes. Okay, I see.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jichang looked at Zahala and smiled.

“My friend, may we have a happy cooperation.”

“…What?” Zahala still hadn’t reacted.

“The headquarters has agreed to our assistance. With the mining rights of the gem mine as collateral, we will directly give you weapons and equipment, and provide relevant training for your personnel,” Zhang Jichang said with a smile.

“What? How did you get these?” Zahala couldn’t believe it. A company that buys fruit has so much power?

Impossible?
