Isn’t such a concept a little ridiculous? He suspected that his standards were too high. After all, as long as one had money, one could be a big leader. Everyone had the intention to have fun, so why would they really try to improve the judicial system here?
He looked around and asked, “Where are the police? Shouldn’t they send more people to watch a large ceremony like this just in case? Who will be responsible if anything happens?”
Yu Yan smiled awkwardly and said, “We’re seriously short-handed here. Moreover, they’ve basically never learned how to be police officers properly, so they’re a little lazy. If the person involved doesn’t take the initiative to report the case, they won’t take action. Moreover, such a matter isn’t big.”
In other words, there was no need to take it seriously.
Lu Ming said with a faint smile, “After the person involved reports the case, how can the police, who don’t know anything, catch up with the thief? I reckon it will be a hasty matter in the end, right? They’re really too lazy. If this continues, this place will be ridden with crime sooner or later. Perhaps ordinary people won’t be willing to come to Justice Island to play.”
“This, this… We can’t do anything about it. However, you can rest assured that the probability of such a thing happening is not high. You will definitely enjoy the safest treatment here. The only thing we can do is to try our best to protect you. Those people still need Justice Island, so they won’t do anything to you casually.”
Yu Yan said helplessly. Then he seemed to have thought of something and said, “Oh right! I heard that you opened a big company in China? Then you must be very experienced, right? It should be more than enough to manage this island. The only difference is that there are more people to manage here.”
Wasn’t this a little too much? It was completely several times more than before, right? How could it be so easy to manage a country? However, even if the other party didn’t say it, Lu Ming would still do so. After all, he was quite territorial. Since it belonged to him, it had to follow his pace.
Just as he was deep in thought, the surrounding crowd suddenly pushed the man beside him unintentionally, causing the man to involuntarily bump into Lu Ming. The drink in his hand also fell to the ground! Lu Ming thought that the other party would at least apologize, but who knew that the man said arrogantly, “Are you f*cking blind?! Why do you have to stand in front of me?!”
In the next second, he pointed at his branded clothes and said, “Look! It’s all your fault! Do you know how difficult it will be to wash the stain off? I bought a limited edition! It starts at at at least six figures! Can you f*cking afford it? Are you crazy? Don’t you know to make way when you see me?”
The moment he came, he was criticized and scolded. Yu Yan’s heart skipped a beat. Oh my! This new boss had just arrived on the island and such a thing had happened. Would it make the other party feel that their island was not worth that much money? No, no! If the other party went back on his word at the last minute, this island would be seized by other countries sooner or later. In fact… he would not even be able to earn the last dollar!
Hence, he carefully looked at Lu Ming, only to see Lu Ming smiling at that profligate son. He did not look uncomfortable at all. Could it be that his temper is too good? Or… is this a sign of anger? He immediately felt very flustered! Why did such an unpredictable superior come?
Just as he was about to speak up to resolve this farce, the profligate son sized Lu Ming up and said, “You’re still wearing last year’s new clothes. Tsk tsk, looks like you don’t have much money in your pocket! Let me tell you, this place isn’t suitable for a bumpkin like you! Even if I sell you, you won’t be able to compensate for my clothes!”
However, no matter what he said, the person in front of him was very calm. This made him even more angry. “Smile! You’re still f*cking smiling! I think you’re sick?! You look like a gigolo. Could it be that you’re being kept by someone? If you don’t compensate me according to the original price today, I won’t let you leave!”
Before Yu Yan could finish, Lu Ming interrupted him. “I’m his distant relative. What do you think?”
At this moment, Guo Jiangjia noticed the existence of another person. He said sarcastically, “Oh, so it’s your relative, Secretary? How can you bring such a shabby person around? You can’t be bringing him here to broaden his horizons, right? Even if the heavens come today, I won’t let this little bastard off!”
He paused for a moment and said maliciously, “However, I can lower my requirements on your account. If you, a distant relative, can lick the drinks scattered on the ground clean, I’ll immediately take it that you’ve left! How about it? I’m already quite benevolent, right? If it’s someone else, I won’t spare that person.”
At least for now, he could not offend Yu Yan completely. His family still needed the official forces to earn more money. He felt that he had already given these two people a lot of face. Unexpectedly, Lu Ming suddenly opened his eyes. They were filled with coldness as he said, “You keep spouting vulgarities. Is this how your parents taught you?”
Guo Jiangjia was instantly stunned on the spot. For some reason, he felt like he had been targeted by a huge beast!
Seeing that Lu Ming’s mood had worsened, Yu Yan quickly said in a low voice, “This is the precious son of the Guo family. He has mixed Chinese and English heritage. He had been spoiled since he was young. If you want to be comfortable on this island, you have to borrow their family’s power. This is because the Guo family is very powerful on Justice Island. Many people are willing to listen to them.”
If an ordinary person heard this, they would definitely choose to compromise. But not Lu Ming.
He sneered and said, “Now, this entire island is mine. You’re just residents living here. Do you think I came all the way here to be bullied? Or do you think I look like a masochist? I can allow whoever to stay or leave as I please. It’s just a matter of words. It’s not like I can’t live without them here.”
It was over. He had almost forgotten that this person was also a master. Moreover, he had established a large company outside. He wondered how he was compared to the Guo family. Yu Yan sighed in his heart. When immortals fight, mortals suffer. In any case, he could not afford to offend either side. Well, the Guo family paid the most taxes every year.
What are we going to do now?
After a moment of silence, he said, “Young Master Guo, why don’t I compensate you at the original price? I still have something to do, so I’ll get someone to transfer the money to your bank account later. I wonder if this is okay? If not, I’ll add more. Give me a number…”
