"How dare I be lazy? This is not because I am afraid that you will come back to check your homework. I also specially prepared report materials." Gu Zhuoyi handed a report material to Ye Fang. Ye Fang symbolically opened it and looked at it. He nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad!" He handed the materials to Lan Lu behind him, then smiled at Gu Zhuoyi and said, "Keep up the good work!"

"Well, keep up the good work!" Hearing Ye Fang's words of encouragement, Gu Zhuoyi had the urge to cry. This impulse was not a move, but a feeling of loss, because she could no longer see any emotion in Ye Fang's eyes, but simply respect and being respected between superiors and subordinates. In this The only thing mixed with respect may be that Gu Zhuoyi and Ye Fang had a shared memory of each other.

Such a group of people on the tarmac made many people think that some political dignitary was visiting China, otherwise the battle would have been much bigger.

After briefly greeting everyone, Ye Fang asked Cai Xiaoling to take everyone to Xiyuan and take this opportunity to have a good chat with everyone. Soon, a convoy of cars slowly drove away on the tarmac, and Su Long drove Ye Fang's black business car over. At this time, Miao Qianqian and Li Jiayi were a little at a loss. They didn't know whether they should get on the bus with Ye Fang or take another bus.

Fortunately, there was Cai Xiaoling next to Ye Fang. Ye Fang did not deliberately introduce Miao Qianqian and Li Jiayi. Cai Xiaoling directly asked, "Who are these two beauties?"

Seeing this, Ye Fang slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot to introduce you just now. This is Miao Qianqian and that is Li Jiayi. Both of them are from Xiangjiang Entertainment Company. They will be responsible for the mainland entertainment business in the future. For the time being, they will arrange it first Let’s live in Xiyuan.”

"Okay, I understand, you two come with me." Cai Xiaoling said and asked the two of them to get into another car. The two looked at Ye Fang reluctantly, but saw that Ye Fang did not pay attention to them. Instead of looking at the two people standing next to a car in the distance.

These two people were Xiang Guo and his assistant. When Ye Fang saw these two people, he knew something was up. The two came over when they saw that Ye Fang had time. When they came to Ye Fang, Xiang Guoxian said, "Mr. Ye, welcome home."

After hearing Xiang Guo's words, Ye Fang was a little dumbfounded and immediately replied, "If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"The chief invites you!" Xiang Guo said and politely made way for Ye Fang to follow the two of them.

At this time, Zhang Xiuying was pushed over in a wheelchair. When Zhang Xiuying saw Xiang Guo, she said directly, "Go back and tell the head of your family that Ye Fang is not going anywhere tonight. If you want to pick him up, you can come pick him up tomorrow!"

"What's so important that people won't even let me go back to my home! Go back and tell him, just say it's me who said it. If he's not satisfied, let him come to me!" Zhang Xiuying said dissatisfied.

"This..." Xiang Guo was obviously hesitant. He glanced at Ye Fang with some embarrassment, hoping that Ye Fang would take the initiative, but Ye Fang pretended to look elsewhere and completely ignored Xiang Guo's eyes. In the end, Xiang Guo had no choice but to say, "Okay, then tomorrow! I'll wait at the gate of Xiyuan at seven o'clock tomorrow on time!"

"Seven o'clock is not enough! Let's go to ten o'clock! It's so early, why don't you let people have an early sleep?!" Zhang Xiuying said still reluctantly.

"Then...Okay, ten o'clock!" After speaking, Xiang Guochong and Zhang Xiuying bowed slightly and turned to leave.

Ye Fang looked at Zhang Xiuying in surprise. He didn't understand why Xiang Guo was so afraid of Zhang Xiuying. Is it because she and Ye Youxin were from the same family? Ye Fang laughed happily, gave Zhang Xiuying a thumbs up, and said, "Aunt Ying, you are so powerful!"

"I just can't stand how they use chicken feathers as arrows. They have to leave before entering the house. Why are you so anxious about something? Why don't you talk about it later?" Zhang Xiuying grumbled like an old hen guarding her chickens. Make Ye Fang feel warmer.

"Let's go, Aunt Ying, let's go back to Xiyuan." Ye Fang said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go back to Xiyuan." Zhang Xiuying said with hope.

Among all these people, only Miao Qianqian, Li Jiayi and the heads of some subsidiaries have not been to Xiyuan. Originally, Miao Qianqian and Li Jiayi thought that Xiyuan should be just a larger villa, but after they actually arrived at Xiyuan, Miao Qianqian and Li Jiayi had the same expression as everyone who came to Xiyuan for the first time, with shock and disbelief written all over her face.

No matter how luxurious the manors and villas are in Xiangjiang, they have seen it, but being able to live in such an antique garden in the center of the city is definitely not something that can be done with money, especially when Miao Qianqian and Li Jiayi heard that the whole Xiangjiang When the building materials of the garden were the same as those of the Forbidden City, the two of them instantly felt like they were on a pilgrimage to the palace.

When Zhang Xiuying and Ye Fang appeared in Xiyuan, they were naturally in a different state of mind. Ye Fang was returning home, while Zhang Xiuying was revisiting her old place in a different way. After all, Xiyuan represents some special memories for Zhang Xiuying. .

Zhang Xiuying was sitting in a wheelchair, and Ye Fang introduced Zhang Xiuying to Zhang Xiuying anecdotes about the renovation of Xiyuan. Of course, Ye Fang heard many of these things from Xiaozhuang.

Here Cai Xiaoling took the initiative to act as a tour guide for Miao Qianqian and Li Jiayi. Miao Qianqian and Li Jiayi knew that Cai Xiaoling was the chief financial officer of the group, second only to Ye Fang. In other words, when Ye Fang was not in the group , Cai Xiaoling can control the operation of the group, so the two tried their best to close the relationship with Cai Xiaoling.

Zhang Xiuying's physical injuries were not yet healed, so Ye Fang sent her directly to the backyard. After settling in, Ye Fang came to the front yard to meet with the group's executives one by one. Everyone briefly reported the company's business to Ye Fang during the banquet. Ye Fang was very happy when he learned that the group had been operating normally during his absence. This also meant that Ye Fang could rest assured to expand the territory.

During the meal break, Cai Xiaoling pulled Ye Fang aside and complained, "My Mr. Ye, Chairman Ye, Boss Ye, can you not just get a group company back as soon as you go out? Just get Zhongrui Capital in Xiangjiang." Why? Why did you get another entertainment company in Haojiang? I heard that it operates a casino. These companies need to set up separate accounts and manage them separately. Did you know that the manpower of the financial center alone has exceeded 100 people? The daily turnover of the group is calculated at [-] million yuan. If several more companies are listed in the future, the employees in the financial center will not be able to fit on that floor."

Ye Fang smiled slightly and said, "If there are not enough people, just add more people. If there is not enough space, just buy a building. You can make the decision."

"I'm afraid you'll go out now. I hope you can just stay in Xiyuan. The group is too big now." Cai Xiaoling said.

"This is how it is in the start-up period. It will be fine after this period of time. I will go abroad in a few days." Ye Fang said.

"Okay, I'll let you handle the procedures for leaving the country. We need to talk in advance, but don't bring any foreign company back." Cai Xiaoling said.

"Okay, we will definitely not start any company this time. Don't worry, Mr. Cai!" Ye Fang promised.

Ye Fang briefly chatted with everyone and then went back to his room. No one pressed him. Who makes Ye Fang the big boss?

"Old Wang, you realize that without this month, I feel farther away from Mr. Ye." Bi Xingfa whispered.

Wang Junhe nodded in agreement and said, "Mr. Ye's pool is even more unfathomable now. I heard that we are going to build a casino in Haojiang this time. The registered capital alone is one billion US dollars. It's amazing." !”

"This was unimaginable a year ago. Tens of millions used to be considered a lot of money, but now hundreds of millions are commonplace in the group." Bi Xingfa said with emotion.

"Jin Lin is just a creature in the pond. He turns into a dragon when encountering storms. This sentence is really true. Mr. Ye is such a person." Wang Junhe said.

While the two were chatting, Ye Fang called Sulong and Lengchuan to get in the car and went straight to Ma's house.

"Have you seen the child?" Ma Zhengping said.

"Yeah. Children grow up so fast. They have grown so much without seeing them for just a month." Ye Fang said with emotion.

"You, you should take some time to spend time with your child, otherwise I'm worried that your child won't recognize you in the future." Ma Zhengping said.

"I also hope to spend a lot of time with them." Ye Fang said.

"What, you still want to go out?" Ma Zhengping heard the meaning of Ye Fang's words.

"Well, let's go abroad and go to Ukraine." As for what he was going to do in Ukraine, Ye Fang didn't say anything, and Ma Zhengping didn't ask either.

"Pay attention to safety, the political situation in Ukraine has been chaotic recently." Ma Zhengping reminded.

"Well, I'll pay attention." Ye Fang continued, "It's getting late. I'm going back. You should rest early."

"Okay." Ma Zhengping said.

When he walked to the door, Ye Fang suddenly remembered a question and asked, "Are Zhang Xiuying and Ye Youxin the same family?"

"Yes and no." Ma Zhengping said ambiguously.

"How do you say this?" Ye Fang asked curiously.

"Yes, because they are indeed from the Ye family. No, because they are not a couple. Zhang Xiuying is Ye Youxin's sister-in-law and the current matron of the Ye family." Ma Zhengping said.

Ye Fang suddenly said, "That's it."

"Zhang Xiuying...she has a hard time, please be nice to her." Ma Zhengping said.

"I understand." Ye Fang obviously did not hear what Ma Zhengping meant. On the way back to Xiyuan, Ye Fang even snickered at his random manipulation of the mandarin duck formula.

Early the next morning, Xiang Guo came to the gate of Xiyuan to wait for Ye Fang, but he did not go into Xiyuan to wait. Perhaps he was worried about meeting Zhang Xiuying, so he waited on the roadside in front of Xiyuan.

Ye Fang didn't really wait until ten o'clock before going out. Not long after Xiang Guo arrived at Xiyuan, Ye Fang got in the car. Xiang Guo did not ask Su Long to accompany him, but directly took Ye Fang to an ordinary building on the outskirts of Beijing. Although the building looks ordinary on the outside, it is truly unique inside. Modern communication equipment and hurried staff can be seen everywhere.

Xiang Guo took Ye Fang to a room, where Ye Fang met Ye Youxin and a young woman.

Later, Ye Fang learned that this young woman was called Xiang Yu, and she also traveled to Ukraine with Ye Fang to act as a translator.

Ye Youxin did not ask too much about Ye Fang's trip to the two rivers, nor did he complain about his poor protection of Zhang Xiuying. Ye Fang went straight to the point after arriving.

"Originally the trip was in a month, but due to changes in the middle, you have to leave early." Ye Youxin threw a file bag to Ye Fang and said, "This time, your pseudonym is Xu Yongping, and you are the general manager of China Entertainment. , this mission is to purchase a gambling boat for the company. This is all the information about your identity, Xiang Yu will be your translator for this operation."

"When will we set off?" Ye Fang asked.

"Leave in the afternoon!" Ye Youxin said.

"So fast?" Ye Fang thought to himself that he had not yet warmed up under the blanket, so he left again and said helplessly, "Okay, I understand."

"I originally wanted to introduce the situation to you in detail last night, but now it's too late. Xiang Yu will tell you all the information on the way. Just go back and prepare before setting off." Ye Youxin said.

"Why is my life so miserable!" Ye Fang sighed.

Xiang Yu, who was behind Ye Youxin, saw that Ye Fang was so cynical and looked down on Ye Fang in his brows, but it was only fleeting and did not let Ye Fang notice it.

Before leaving, Ye Youxin patted Ye Fang on the shoulder and said seriously, "Pay attention to safety. This time it's no better than at home. We can't support you that far. You have to rely on yourself for everything."

"I understand, don't worry." Ye Fang paused, looked up at Ye Youxin, and said humbly, "I'm sorry about Aunt Ying."

"As long as she's fine, let her take care of herself in Xiyuan. She can still help you take care of the garden when you're not here. If she has something to do, she doesn't have to lecture us all the time." Ye Youxin said with a smile.

"Yeah, okay." Ye Fang replied.

At this time, Ye Fang realized that even heavyweights like Ye Youxin were afraid of people. Sure enough, when Ye Fang returned to Xiyuan and told Zhang Xiuying the news of leaving for Ukraine in the afternoon, Zhang Xiuying fully reprimanded Ye Youxin. For half an hour, he threatened to take care of Ye Youxin the next time he saw him.

But after all, with Zhang Xiuying, Ye Fang didn't have to worry about her internal affairs. If Zhang Xiuying hadn't been injured, she would definitely not have let her lift a finger. This time when he went to Ukraine, Ye Fang only brought Su Long and ten people from Qingtian Security, while Leng Chuan stayed to take care of the garden.

The special plane flying to Ukraine in the afternoon was already waiting at the airport. Ye Fang and Xiang Yu walked towards the special plane after meeting at the airport. Xiang Yu looked at Ye Fang's large and small bags with a look of disdain on her face. She only brought a backpack with a few changes of clothes. After many years of military career, Xiang Yu was used to this way of working.

Ye Fang seemed to see the hidden meaning in Xiang Yu's eyes, so he explained, "The old man at home is pretending, and there's nothing I can do about it."

"You don't need to explain to me. It has nothing to do with me how much stuff you bring, as long as you can successfully complete this mission." After that, Xiang Yu ignored Ye Fang and walked straight towards the plane.

"Brother Ye, this woman is quite attractive." Su Long said when he saw Xiang Yu being dissatisfied with Ye Fang's attitude.

"If you have the money to pull me away, let's go!" Ye Fang hurriedly took a few steps towards the plane.

Soon, the plane took off, destined for the Black Sea Shipyard in Ukraine.
