Chapter 3002: 2999 Zhao Group’s Leader

2999 Zhao Group’s Leader

“When did you sign the contract?” Nazankasa sprang up from his seat and questioned Zhao Manyan.

“It’s been some time since I signed it. Before this, my older brother, Zhao Youqian, helped to handle our family business. He’s not very close with Duke Ayleen. The contract officially came into effect after I took over his position,” said Zhao Manyan.

Nozankasa flipped through the documents. There was a supplemental agreement after the contract.

He frowned.

They had the audacity to challenge Zhao Group in this field all because they had obtained young dragons from the Victorian Dragon Taming family.

As a result, Zhao Group’s bidding clubs faced serious problems. The dragon auction became trendy in Europe. Any industry that produced dragon-related products made a lot of money. Moreover, there was a great demand from several rich continents.

Therefore, people criticized Zhao Group for this. This was probably the reason they had been pulled down from their altar. Zhao Youqian had a very poor relationship with the Victorian Dragon Taming family.

Little did they know that right after the Zhao family changed their heir, the Victorian Dragon Taming family gave them their exclusive auction right. This had not only strengthened Zhao Group’s financial resources, but they had also obtained Duke Ayleen and her group’s deep trust.

The confusion was that Zhao Manyan was still very young, so how had he obtained Duke Ayleen’s trust?

“Mr. Nozankasa, I’ve another contract. We plan to acquire all of your bidding clubs and use them specially for our dragon auction venue. You can look at our proposed price and see if it satisfies you.” Apparently, Zhao Manyan came prepared for the Chambers of Commerce of Venice. He snapped his fingers again.

A third pretty lady came out with a new contract and passed it to Nozankasa.

Nozankasa was stunned. ‘What the heck?!’

He had come here to oppress Zhao Group’s bidding clubs. How did it turn out that Zhao Group wanted to acquire his clubs?

“We have no intention of selling our bidding clubs. Please take back your contract,” said Nozankasa gruffly.

“I only proposed the acquisition once. After all, we still have many other choices. I thought your family has high prestige in Europe, so your auction will be trustworthy,” said Zhao Manyan.

Nozankasa sneered. Meanwhile, the consultant beside him read the contract in detail.

After the consultant finished reading the contract, he whispered to Nozankasa, “Sir, if Zhao Group monopolizes the bidding market, we won’t be able to compete with them. Instead of letting it gradually fall into disuse, we might as well accept his offer. After all, the money can be used to make up for the energy stone mining problem we invested in South America. We should focus on the energy magic stone now. There’s no need to compete with Zhao Group in the bidding industry.”

After hearing his consultant’s advice, Nozankasa could not help but read the contract carefully.

The price offered was indeed very enticing. Zhao Group was filthy rich, after all!

If they could splurge to acquire his bidding clubs, then the Zhao Group had ample funds. A businessman could not act recklessly.

“I’ll consider the price offered. I’ll read the contract in detail.” Nozankasa smiled.

“I hope we can work well together,” said Zhao Manyan.

…

When the Kasa family stopped asking Zhao Manyan to step down from his position, the rest of the representatives with lesser power naturally shut their mouths. None of the leading bosses had the intention to start a war with Zhao Group, thus, the rest of the great families, consortia, and royal families did not dare to oppose them. After all, Zhao Group was still the host for Chambers of Commerce of Venice. Zhao Manyan had sent them a very clear message by kicking the Spanish royal families out of the Chambers Of Commerce.

Issues targeting Zhao Group gradually reduced. What was left was some conflicts among the major consortia. The president of the Chambers of Commerce had to stand up to mediate the dispute.

Zhao Manyan was not very good at mediation. Thus, he passed it to an elder of the Zhao family.

People had to act according to their abilities. The scale of the Chambers of Commerce of Venice was large, and the knowledge about it was as deep as the ocean. Zhao Manyan still had a lot of things to learn.

…

“Old Dong, I hope these cunning old men won’t think about replacing me anymore,” said Zhao Manyan to an elder beside him during the break.

“They won’t bring up the issue this year, but I’m not sure about next year. It all depends on our harvest this year.” Old Dong gave him a smile.

“Why are you smiling?” Zhao Manyan asked in confusion.

“Young Master Zhao, the fact that you’re an admirable Mage has contributed a lot to our family. For a very long time, the great families and royal families from Europe have been prejudiced against us. They assumed we’re just businessmen, and that a businessman is not as noble as a Mage. They criticized us for raising prices, sensationalizing the commodities, and tinkering with the finance market. They said we didn’t make any contribution to society,” said Old Dong.

“Really? I’d say doing anything is pretty much the same,” replied Zhao Manyan.

“Cultivation is the noblest of human pursuits. Our foundation is built in the Magic City. You’re the hero of the city. Even your father failed to build a rapport with some of the great families’ alliance or Chambers of Commerce Alliance. But as soon as you took over, success came naturally. All this could be done because of your respectable image in the Magic City. After all, who would doubt a businessman who can give his life for a city?” said Old Dong calmly.

Zhao Manyan had never thought of it that way. After all, everything he did all these years was mostly because he had been dragged down by someone else. Perhaps, he had been dragged down too frequently, hence, he unknowingly fell into the pit himself again.

“Maybe.” Zhao Manyan was puzzled.

“You’ve gotten first place in the World College Tournament. The Europeans look highly on these titles. In fact, the world regards these titles very highly. Zhao Group spent a lot of money to invest in students from prestigious schools. We hope that they will bring us back the corresponding glory. Unfortunately, the return on investment is very poor. Still, we have to spend the money on them. But now, you alone are a powerful and great mage. Your aura is different from the leaders of consortia who still need the protection of the Guardian Mages. Therefore, I believe your uniqueness and glory, as well as your talent and ability in the commercial arena will make you do better than your father someday,” said Old Dong from the bottom of his heart.

“Old Dong, you think too highly of me. I’m worse than Zhao Youqian in terms of doing business.” Zhao Manyan shook his head. He was aware of his own ability.

“You’re different. It’s true that he’s an outstanding businessman, but he’s not an outstanding leader. Zhao Group has a lot of outstanding businessmen, but we need a motivating and committed leader.” It was clear that Old Dong thought very highly of Zhao Manyan.
