All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 734 Chapter 735. The Ninth World Finale
In 1921, Yue Suzhi finally obtained a bachelor's degree from Columbia University, while Yue Wenxuan and Qu Shumo obtained their doctoral degrees first.

After four years in the United States, the three of them were already eager to return home. After Yue Suzhi received her graduation certificate, their hearts had already crossed the ocean and returned to their hometown.

Yue Wenxuan had already made preparations to return home, and had asked his assistant Wheeler Hudson to purchase various gifts to bring back in advance. As for work matters, he had also made proper arrangements.

At the end of July, Yue Wenxuan and his entourage, together with the American entourage who were to be brought back to China, a total of more than one hundred people boarded the cruise ship bound for the Magic City.

Among these American attachés, a small number are management and technical personnel drawn from various companies under Yue Wenxuan's name, and the rest are all security personnel.

These management and technical personnel followed Yue Wenxuan to the country in order to enrich or expand business needs, while other security personnel were to set up a dark night security branch in the country.

After four years of development, the speed of the cruise ship has been significantly improved. This time, it took only a dozen days to reach the port of Shanghai when returning to China.

Yue Wenxuan did not hide the good news of his return from his family. He had already sent a telegram. In order to be the first to see his two children studying abroad, Yue Wenxuan's parents had already come to live in Shanghai a few days ago.

According to the estimated voyage distance, Yue Wenxuan and his group should be able to arrive within the next few days. Yue Hanzhang and his wife come to the port to wait every day, and this has been going on for two days.

This voyage was very smooth, with almost no time wasted on the road. On the morning of July 28th, the cruise ship carrying Yue Wenxuan and his party finally arrived at the port of Magic City.

Yue Wenxuan had very good eyesight and could see his parents waiting at the port from afar.

After four years, Yue Wenxuan was very excited to see his relatives again. He pulled his sister and walked forward quickly. Qu Shumo followed behind them. The three of them walked first and got off the ship.

Yue Wenxuan and his two companions were the first to get off the boat. As their attire was the most eye-catching, Yue Hanzhang and Tan Bingzhen were the first to see their children.

The sun shines on the sea surface of the Magic City Port, and the waves sparkle like countless dazzling pearls jumping.

Yue Wenxuan and Yue Suzhi almost ran through the crowd, each step filled with longing for home and missing their loved ones. Their footsteps echoed at the dock, intertwining with the sound of waves hitting the shore.

"Father! Mother!"

There was a hint of sob in Yue Wenxuan's voice.

When Yue Hanzhang and his wife saw this, their eyes instantly became moist. Tan Bingzhen gently wiped the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief in her hand, but a warm smile bloomed on her face.

She walked forward quickly, opened her arms, and hugged Yue Wenxuan tightly, as if to fill the gap of the past four years. Yue Wenxuan also hugged his mother tightly, he wanted to engrave this warmth in his heart forever.

Yue Suzhi followed closely behind, her eyes were also red, but there was a happy smile on her lips.

She hugged her father Yue Hanzhang's arm tightly and called softly, "Father, I'm back."

Yue Hanzhang patted his daughter on the back, his voice trembling a little: "Okay, I'm glad you're back."

At this moment, all the waiting and anticipation turned into silent tears and smiles.

Qu Shumo stood quietly by the side, looking at this heartwarming scene, his heart deeply moved.

After Yue Hanzhang calmed his daughter down, he looked at Qu Shumo behind her.

Since they had exchanged countless letters over the years, although this was the first time he met his future son-in-law, he already had a good impression of him.

When Qu Shumo saw his future father-in-law looking at him, he quickly stepped forward and greeted him respectfully. The calmness and respect in his words and deeds made the two elders of the Yue family like him even more.

There were a few blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners among the crowd welcoming them at the dock. They had been paying attention to Yue Wenxuan's movements. They were very excited to see the family meet, but did not rush forward to disturb them.

They waited until Yue Wenxuan finished reminiscing with his family before they came up to him.

The middle-aged man in the lead, who looked like an elite, said in broken Chinese: "Dear Director Yue Wenxuan, excuse me for disturbing you. I am Emmanuel Fredrickson, the manager of Citibank's Shanghai branch.

Knowing that you are about to return home, I have specially brought the company's management to greet you. I hope I have not disturbed your reunion with your family."

With the cooperation of old Rockefeller, Yue Wenxuan's shares in Citibank had reached 56%, but they were dispersed among several investment companies.

Yue Wenxuan owns many companies, and Citibank is not the most important asset. Considering issues such as nationality, although he has obtained controlling rights, he does not serve as chairman himself. This position is held by a general manager of the companies under his name.

His external identity at Citibank is bank director, and for him, this identity is enough.

Yue Wenxuan talked with Emmanuel Fredericksen for a while, entrusted all the American entourage to him, and then sent them away.

After these people left, Yue Hanzhang asked, "Wenxuan, Fredrickson, the boss of Citibank, is always very arrogant. Why is he so respectful to you? If I heard correctly, he seemed to call you director. What's going on?"

"I own shares in Citibank, so I can be said to be Frederickson's boss, so naturally he has to be respectful to me."

"Citibank is a multinational bank, and it is well-known even internationally. How was it possible for you to get shares in Citibank and even occupy a board seat? How did you do it?" Yue Hanzhang was very surprised.

Yue Wenxuan did not talk about work in the letter, but talked mostly about his studies, so Yue Hanzhang was not clear about how big his son's career was in the United States.

"Father, this matter is a long story, and I can't finish it in a short time. Let's go home first. I will tell you slowly after we get back."

This is indeed not the place to have a conversation, so Yue Hanzhang could only put this question in his mind for the time being.

"Let's go home!"

Yue Hanzhang took the children's hands and strode out of the port.

The group of people set out on their journey home in a mighty procession, with their hearts full of joy.

When they returned home, the small Western-style building where Yue Wenxuan once lived had been cleaned spotlessly. The table was filled with fruits and dishes carefully prepared by Yue Hanzhang and his wife. Each dish carried their anticipation and love for their children's return.

The family sat together, eating, chatting and laughing, as if to fill the blank of the past four years.

After Qu Shumo met Yue Wenxuan's parents, he did not live in the Yue family's small Western-style building. He had his own residence in Shanghai. After having a meal, he said goodbye.

He also hasn't been home for four years and wants to return to his hometown to visit his parents as soon as possible.

After he settled down, he would start arranging his marriage with Yue Suzhi.

After dinner, Yue Hanzhang and his son came to the study together. Before his father could ask, Yue Wenxuan described in detail the development of his business in the United States in recent years.

Although Yue Wenxuan did not tell everything 100%, just the part he said was enough to shock Yue Hanzhang.

Yue Hanzhang was not very concerned about his son’s other businesses in the United States. After all, what Yue Wenxuan said was a bit vague, and he was not sure how big the scale of these companies was.

What he is most concerned about is his son's shares in Citibank.

After all, Citibank has a very good reputation and its business in China is also very good. In his mind, Citibank is a multinational giant group. It is incredible that his son can own shares in Citibank and even obtain controlling rights.

"Citibank is such a large multinational group, and you actually own 56% of the shares. You are not trying to please me, are you?" Yue Hanzhang was so shocked by what his son said that he still found it hard to believe it.

“Of course I’m not kidding about such a big thing, it’s really true.

The four companies under my name each hold some shares in Citibank, and all together, they do account for 56% of the shares.

Moreover, the chairman of Citibank is also the general manager of the company under my name. In addition to him, I have three board seats in Citibank. I occupy one seat myself and the manager of another company occupies one seat.

There is one spot that is temporarily vacant, and I am going to leave it to you."

"I don't know anything about Citibank. It's not appropriate for me to serve as a director of Citibank, right?" Yue Hanzhang was surprised but a little unconfident.

Yue Wenxuan patiently explained: "The reason we let you take this board seat is not to let you manage the actual business of Citibank, you just need to put your name on it.

You have friends all over the world. With this status, no matter who you interact with in the future, you will definitely be looked up to, and it will be easier to do anything."

Yue Wenxuan did this mainly to improve his father's social status. With his sociable personality, he should be happy to have such an identity.

Yue Hanzhang was indeed very happy. He never thought that one day he would be able to become a director of the famous Citibank.

In his mind, this identity is too important!

In this era, the identity of a comprador of any foreign company has a very high social status, but he is a director of Citibank. Even a foreign boss like Fredrickson who is arrogant has to respectfully treat him as his boss. His status in the eyes of the Chinese people will only be higher.

The big shots who were once out of his reach in his eyes would now have to be polite and take the initiative to greet him when they saw him. When Yue Hanzhang thought of this scene, he felt very happy and excited.

After staying in Shanghai for a few days, Yue Wenxuan arranged the work of the American attachés and returned to Wuzhou with his family. However, there were a few blond and blue-eyed foreign security personnel added to the returning team.

Yue Wenxuan's grandmother hadn't seen her eldest grandson for four years. She was very excited after meeting him this time. In order to calm the old lady's emotions, Yue Wenxuan stayed in Wuzhou for nearly a month before returning to the Magic City to work with his father.

This time Yue Wenxuan brought a large number of entourage from the United States, intending to open several companies in China. These people are just a temporary outpost, and if there is a need for more personnel in the future, more personnel can be mobilized.

Although Yue Hanzhang has no special talents in business management, he has strong social skills. With the support of his capable son Yue Wenxuan and the identity of a director of Citibank, he immediately became the most popular person after coming to Shanghai again.

From then on, Yue Hanzhang had dealings with high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and he lived a fulfilling life every day, which was exactly the life he liked best.

With Yue Hanzhang, his father, coming out to entertain guests, Yue Wenxuan could hide behind and have some free time.

In this life, Yue Wenxuan was much less constrained by the red warning progress bar. After the war came, although he could not change the overall situation, he could get more support in terms of materials.

The entire course of the war did not change, but with his various supports, the casualties of ordinary people were reduced a lot. Although the changes he brought were not big, they were enough to make Yue Wenxuan feel relieved.

After the war, Yue Wenxuan chose to immigrate to Hong Kong Island with his family. After all, his status was not suitable for staying in the country.

He lived in Hong Kong Island for more than 30 years. Seven or eight years ago, he was personally invited by a senior leader to return to the Magic City to settle down.

Because he was subject to fewer constraints, Yue Wenxuan donated money and materials to the country to the best of his ability at the beginning of reform and opening up, and many people in poor areas benefited from this.

Originally Yue Wenxuan thought that this life would end in the same dull way as before, but he did not expect that on the day of his 100th birthday, the system suddenly underwent new changes.

This life is Yue Wenxuan's eighth time traveling through time, and also his ninth life. His entire life combined is already a very long time.

The pension system is worried that he will gradually get tired of such a dull life, so it has specially added a new feature at this stage - a virtual world option.

From now on, the system will add the option of experiencing the virtual world. The virtual world is equivalent to Yue Wenxuan's game world. There are no constraints in the virtual world, and Yue Wenxuan can develop freely.

Whether he wants to dominate the world or slaughter all living beings, it all depends on his thoughts.

Although he has lived through nine lifetimes, Yue Wenxuan has a very peaceful mentality and a very good mental state. He does not need the virtual world to adjust his mentality.

But some of the system's settings for the virtual world made him very excited, and he couldn't wait to enter the virtual world right now.

The system will not construct virtual worlds randomly. Each virtual world is created based on reality. All the skills and even extraordinary skills that he has mastered in the virtual world can be applied in reality.

It’s just that because the actual situation is different, some skills, although they can be applied in reality, may be subject to certain restrictions due to the different real-life environments.

The system created two virtual worlds in the first batch, namely the world of Smiling Proud Wanderer and the world of Sword and Royal Blood. Yue Wenxuan can choose one of them to enter.

Although these two worlds are both low-level martial arts worlds, Yue Wenxuan is already very happy.

It would be a surprise if he could learn all kinds of magical internal skills and martial arts in the martial arts world and be able to apply them in reality.

Of the two worlds to choose from, the world of "Swordsman" is of course more exciting, and Yue Wenxuan made the choice decisively.

Since he knew that he was going to experience the world of martial arts, Yue Wenxuan of course had to make some preparations in advance.

The supplies stored in the small world are already abundant enough, and he doesn't need to purchase much. The most important things are various weapons.

There are not many minerals in the small world, but the varieties are complete. It is impossible to forge various weapons in large quantities, but it is still possible to prepare a small amount.

To enter the world of martial arts, you don't need to acquire too many cold weapons. A few commonly used swords, spears, swords and other weapons, plus some bows, crossbows and hidden weapons are enough.

For Yue Wenxuan, who was fortunate enough to enter the world of martial arts, the most important thing was of course to learn all kinds of magical internal skills and martial arts. This was already a preliminary step towards extraordinary abilities, so it was naturally not to be missed.

PS: First of all, I would like to express my sincere apologies to everyone. Due to insufficient preparation of materials, it is difficult to write this part about the early Republic of China with a sense of the times. It feels like the more I write, the worse it gets. I can only move on to the next world as soon as possible.
