Chu Mo’s meeting with the King of Shate Kingdom was straightforward, heading directly to the main topic.

There was no choice, as the other party’s itinerary was incredibly tight. Even securing these ten minutes of conversation required coordination among hundreds of team members and various plans to be delayed; hence, there was no spare time for Chu Mo to engage in small talk or haggling with the king.

The result of such a focus on the main topic was that, within ten minutes, Chu Mo and the King of Shate Kingdom had locked in an investment worth hundreds of billions. At the same time, Chu Mo also managed to buy five percent of Citibank’s shares from Prince Alwaleed as he had wished.

The Arabian horse, acquired through a donation of ten billion, was an unexpected affair, but besides that, Chu Mo also purchased two percent of the shares of Sha Te Airline Company from the King of Shate Kingdom, which was a pleasant surprise.

Sha Te Airline Company is one of the largest airline service enterprises in the world, providing ground handling, cargo, catering, and travel services to more than eighty countries across six continents for over four hundred airlines.

This airline is the fastest-growing airline globally, headquartered in the capital of Sartor. Its route network covers over one hundred and sixty destinations, offering airline services to passengers around the world.

...

Last year, Sha Te Airline made it to the 476th position on the Fortune Global 500 list with an annual revenue of twenty-seven billion US dollars, making it a bona fide Fortune Global 500 multinational enterprise.

The two percent stake Chu Mo held would make him the fourth-largest shareholder of Sha Te Airline!

After the ten-minute conversation, the King of Shate Kingdom and his entourage immediately hurried off. Next, they had to visit Pole Country and Tai Country; one could say they were relentlessly on the move.

Of course, Chu Mo’s talk with the King of Shate Kingdom was just about setting the broad framework. The details would need to be worked out by representatives from both sides, a task left to a team of professional lawyers, requiring no worries on his end.

With the departure of the King’s party and Chu Mo’s goals and plans accomplished, there was no need for him to continue his stay there.

Chu Mo boarded the Mercedes-Maybach that had received him on arrival, and he was still seen off by Long Huanyu, the heir of the Long family. As for the Family Head of the Long family, he never appeared.

Without saying much, he simply nodded farewell to the young Long and then left in the vehicle.

As for the Arabian horse, the King of Shate Kingdom would arrange for someone to directly deliver it to Chu Mo’s Imperial Xuan in Modu.

Leaving Xiangjiang Airport with slightly different emotions compared to the full anticipation he had on arrival, Chu Mo’s mindset had undergone a slight change.

He had confidently believed that his trip to Xiangjiang would involve toasting and conversing jovially with the heads of the eight major families and that he would use this opportunity to ascend into the top echelons of Hua Country’s society. However, reality proved he had thought too much.

The circles of the eight major families were not so easily breached, and even with his current status, he was far from catching the eye of those families.

Similarly, Chu Mo had come to understand a truth: the eight major families, seemingly lax, were actually tightly interconnected. When a new force that could threaten their status emerged within Hua Country’s borders, these apparently unrelated individuals would join hands.

The combined efforts of these people to suppress him at the auction were a cautionary tale.

This was probably why for decades, there had always been only eight major families in Hua Country, without ever a ninth emerging.

Even the wealthiest individuals in the country, such as Hua Country’s richest man Zhang Dahua and the Chairman of Alibaba, Ma Yu, had their net worth capped around two hundred billion. Once they broke through a certain limit, they would face suppression from the eight major families!

If Chu Mo wanted to grow and become more powerful, he would inevitably have a falling out with the eight major families in the not too distant future.

However, with Chu Mo’s current layout and planning, he had long been no longer the defenseless minor character from half a year ago. When he decided to leave Modu and take this step, he had already made comprehensive preparations!

It would be best if the eight major families remained stable. If they really thought he was easy to bully, Chu Mo was not afraid of their provocations.

He arrived at Xiangjiang Airport at 6:10 in the evening, but his private Boeing jet couldn’t take off immediately. Private flight paths require coordination and it’s not possible to fly wherever you want on a whim.

Chu Mo quietly waited at the airport for two hours. At eight o’clock in the evening, the Boeing airplane was finally cleared for takeoff.

At an altitude of ten thousand meters, inside the cabin, two beautiful flight attendants were still serving by his side. Chu Mo had not had dinner yet, so once again, dinner was consumed on the plane. After eating, he did not stay in the lounge but went to the bedroom.

This bedroom was tailor-made for Chu Mo, with a bathroom and toilet inside, as well as a bookshelf. The two-meter bed wasn’t as big as those in imperial suites, but considering that this was in the sky, one couldn’t ask for more.

Chu Mo lay back on the bed, casually pulled a book from the shelf, flipped through a few pages, but he couldn’t concentrate.

All sorts of thoughts kept flashing through his mind. One moment he thought back to the meeting with the King of Sartor, the next to the auction, and then to the various family heads. In the end, what came to his mind was the bookshelf in the Long family’s reception hall, filled with all kinds of precious books!

Chu Mo really liked that bookshelf, or to be precise, he liked the thousands of rare and unique volumes on it. Any book there had its own history, and Chu Mo remembered even seeing an autographed manuscript by the great writer Guo Moruo!

If only the imperial suites had such a bookshelf…

While his mind was awash with random thoughts, the bedroom door opened and the flight attendant who had massaged him before walked in. She came to the side of the bed and bowed slightly, asking:

“Mr. Chu, may I be of service to you?”

Chu Mo glanced at her delicate cheek. Solely in terms of appearance, she would score about ninety points, a rare beauty in the eyes of most people. The airline company in Modu had purposefully assigned her to his own private plane, probably with the intention of pleasing him.

After all, just the maintenance costs for his private jet parked at the airport amounted to a significant sum each month.

The uniform-clad flight attendant before him smiled radiantly, her delicate cheeks flushed, her large eyes gazing directly at Chu Mo, carrying a hint of shyness and anticipation.

Chu Mo nodded lightly and remarked offhandedly:

“I hear that the soundproofing on this plane is very good?”

At these words, the radiant flight attendant immediately nodded, closed the door behind her, returned to the bedside, and said in a seductive voice:

“You’ll know how good the soundproofing is if you try it!”

He placed the book he was holding by the bed. Under normal circumstances, even if the flight attendant took the initiative, Chu Mo would refuse, but today’s events in Xiangjiang had left him feeling oppressed. He needed to vent the displeasure in his heart, so, this time, he didn’t resist.

The journey back was long, flying directly from Xiangjiang to Modu would take several hours. He had plenty of time!
