Chapter 266: Another Macau

For the next period of time, Gao Jin began sweeping through the various casinos in Las Vegas.

Compared to Zhao Yuan, who made a name for himself based on his talent for calculation, Gao Jin's level was more than a notch higher.

At the age of seventeen, not only did he sweep through the major casinos of Las Vegas, but he also took down several technical consultants from the casinos.

Such an achievement was truly astonishing, and the olive branches wanting to recruit him were flying everywhere.

However, Gao Jin did not accept a single one, appearing like an obedient child who strictly followed his master's orders.

But in private, he still quietly met with Chen Jiajun once.

"Have you thought it over?" Chen Jiajun said with a calm expression, as if he had known all along that Gao Jin would come.

Yet this posture made Gao Jin very annoyed: "You knew I would definitely come to find you?"

"Don't ask such foolish questions; haven't you already come?" Chen Jiajun said with a smile.

"The opportunity for revenge you told me about... what is it?" Gao Jin couldn't be bothered to continue bickering over this issue with Chen Jiajun and asked directly instead.

Chen Jiajun laughed: "You should know about the news that Macau is going to hold a 'God of Gamblers Tournament' recently, right?"

Gao Jin naturally knew about Macau holding a "God of Gamblers Tournament."

His master, Jin Neng, even told him to participate.

This tournament invited gambling experts from all over the world to compete, and it could be considered a grand feast for the gambling world.

However, as the Boss, Chen Jiajun naturally knew that this was just a marketing campaign.

And it was his own previous proposal, with the goal of developing Macau's gambling and betting industries.

"Your master wants to use you to make money, so he definitely won't let this opportunity pass," Chen Jiajun said indifferently.

Gao Jin's heart stirred: "You mean... he will bet on the side?"

"Of course, he won't let such a good opportunity pass. If you few couldn't make money for him, why do you think he would have bought you from human traffickers?" Chen Jiajun said indifferently.

Gao Jin said with some surprise: "You even know about this?"

"I not only know, but in order for our future Technical Director to work for me with peace of mind, I even had those two human trafficker ringleaders who abducted you captured," Chen Jiajun said with a smile: "How about it? Is my sincerity enough now?"

Gao Jin looked at Chen Jiajun with complex eyes: "You think that highly of me? You should know I'm only seventeen."

"Consider it a type of investment," Chen Jiajun said indifferently: "The initiative is yours."

Gao Jin took a deep breath and said: "Since Sir Chen thinks so highly of me, I agree."

"Hahaha, good. Once your grievances with Jin Neng are settled, my casino in Macau will be handed over to you," Chen Jiajun said with a smile.

On the other side, the negotiations on Lao E's end were also drawing to a close.

Lao E's formidable ability taught these Gweilo a harsh lesson.

He was not only able to clearly predict where their bottom line was, but he also wouldn't let the negotiations collapse.

After the negotiations ended, Lao E told Chen Jiajun that these Gweilo from the United States would first cooperate with Brunei on transportation.

A Gravity-style Wharf capable of docking ten-thousand-ton ships, as well as the construction of an airport, would all be completed by their side.

And Brunei only needed to give up the lease rights to a piece of land for several decades.

For Brunei, this was a huge bargain.

Not long after, the first batch of technical personnel from the United States arrived.

But what no one expected was that the people from the CIA were still harboring evil intentions.

It was unknown what methods they used, but they actually managed to sneak spies in.

"In other words, quite a few of the people in this expert team are from the CIA?" Chen Jiajun asked with a somewhat gloomy expression.

Lao E closed his eyes and nodded, saying: "More than a dozen people are problematic."

Li Yaohua frowned and said: "Are these CIA people crazy? Don't they know what the consequences of doing this are?"

Brunei was a sovereign country; it was not the colony of any nation.

It even held a seat on the international stage.

For the CIA to do this, it would easily trigger a diplomatic incident.

Especially at this critical juncture where Las Vegas and several major financial groups were investing in Brunei.

"I estimate the major financial groups might not know," Chen Jiajun pondered for a moment and then said to Li Yaohua: "The major financial groups aren't that stupid; it's likely the CIA people acted on their own initiative."

"But... what should be done about this?" Li Yaohua said unhappily: "We can't just let these damn spies run wild in Brunei, right?"

It wasn't just Li Yaohua who was uneasy; even Chen Jiajun was not very at ease.

If it were known that the Big Boss behind the scenes of Brunei was himself, the CIA's targeted actions would follow one after another.

At that point, Chen Jiajun's situation would become extremely dangerous.

After all, if the matter of controlling a country were exposed, Chen Jiajun would be in a lot of trouble.

At the very least, England would not let the matter rest.

After all, Brunei was seized from the hands of England.

Just as the two were lost in thought, Lao E suddenly spoke up: "How about letting these people die in an accident?"

"Good idea." Upon hearing Lao E's words, the two's eyes lit up immediately.

That night, beside the airport hotel.

A group of experts was investigating Brunei's airport.

This airport had been built for several decades; it was originally used by the English to dock fighter jets.

It was only later, as England's national power declined, that it was converted from a military airport to a civilian one.

Brunei did not have many modes of transportation; besides traveling by boat, the only option left was to take a plane.

Therefore, these experts were also having a bit of a headache.

Because the location of the airport was truly excellent, they were debating whether to expand and renovate it, or to find another site to rebuild it.

As for the other group, the CIA spies, they were not acting together with these construction experts.

They were originally inserted into this team by the CIA's Asia director, and they had their own mission.

"Boss, don't you find it strange? Ever since the coup was completed in this Brunei, the whole country seems different. I remember when I came here to collect intelligence last time..." a CIA spy whispered to their Captain.

The Captain waved a hand to interrupt them: "No matter what happened here, we must conduct a comprehensive investigation."

"Then where should we start?" the subordinate said with a frown: "Brunei's national defense is now taken over by that Security Company. I've heard that the mercenaries in this company are not to be trifled with."

But the Captain sneered: "What is there to fear? Would a tiny mercenary group dare to go against our CIA? Our superiors sent word earlier, hoping we would investigate the power plant invested in by the China Light and Power Company in Brunei; they want us to go in and investigate."

"But if we just go over there directly, won't it seem a bit too obvious?" another spy said with a frown.

The Captain pondered for a moment, felt this was also a valid point, and nodded: "Then let's go look around somewhere else first."

After confirming the target, the spy Captain led their subordinates to an abandoned factory not far from the power plant and began to investigate in a perfunctory manner.

And they were completely unaware that someone was already following behind them.

"These are the few rats. I've been observing them since they left the main group," Dumu said with a smile to Lao E beside him: "Truly a bunch of idiots who don't know what death is."

Lao E, who had his eyes closed, sneered and said: "Perfect, this place far from human habitation is indeed a good spot to take action."

Dumu smiled and said: "Then I'll leave it to you."

Lao E nodded, then suddenly reached out a hand toward the abandoned factory from afar.

Then, a terrifying aura emanated from his body.

Except for Dumu, whose expression remained normal, the other young demon slaves all showed expressions of terror on their faces.

Subsequently, Lao E slammed both hands onto the ground, and a ripple spread out with him at the center.

Then, the ground for a radius of one mile began to tremble.

And the center of the vibration was exactly that abandoned factory.

This vibration immediately caught the attention of the CIA spies who had entered the factory to investigate.

The spies' Captain changed expression and hurriedly asked: "What is going on?"

"Boss, could this be an earthquake?" one spy said with some terror, looking at the shaking surroundings.

"Run." The Captain did not want to stay here any longer and immediately planned to take the subordinates and retreat.

Unfortunately, by this time, Lao E's ability had already been activated.

He was a Titan Demon, capable of manipulating the ground to conduct small-scale earthquakes.

Ever since he was summoned following Dumu, his abilities had also gradually begun to unlock.

Before the spy team could run out, they already saw the ground beginning to tear and roll.

It was as if an earth dragon was thrashing wantonly beneath the ground.

Although these few CIA spies were the elite of the elite, in the face of such a massive natural disaster,

any struggle was futile.

Before they could run two steps, the originally solid ground beneath their feet split open, and they were swallowed whole.

The entire abandoned factory disappeared right before everyone's eyes, and the cracks in the ground extended in all directions like a spider web, looking exceptionally terrifying and hideous.

"Phew, tell the Boss that we are finished here, and he can have Li Yaohua send the rescue team over," Lao E let out a long breath and said to Dumu.

Dumu grinned: "Now they really have died without anyone knowing why."

After saying this, he picked up the phone directly and notified Li Yaohua to send the rescue team over.

Brunei's medical system was very deficient, and the same was true for its fire department.

There were only two fire trucks in the entire Brunei, and both were brought over. Even Li Yaohua personally arrived at the front line.

He wanted to see what the mysterious methods were that Chen Jiajun and Lao E used to kill the spies.

But after arriving at the scene, Li Yaohua was completely stunned.

"Mr. President, these dozen or so people from the inspection team..." the leader of the inspection team, a professor named Bob, said to Li Yaohua with a sad face.

Li Yaohua said quite helplessly: "I am very sorry that such a thing happened. My people are rushing to rescue them; I hope it is not too late."

"No, no, no, Mr. President has already done well enough by arriving at the scene to conduct rescue efforts immediately," Bob feared Li Yaohua would misunderstand and hurriedly waved his hands: "Was this disaster caused by an earthquake?"

Li Yaohua shook his head and said: "I am not sure either, but according to feedback from nearby residents, they did indeed feel the vibration. If possible, the United States can invite experts to come and investigate."

Bob immediately believed the sincere-looking Li Yaohua by thirty percent.

But since a dozen people from the inspection team had died at once, necessary investigations were certainly indispensable.

So, after Bob reported back to the United States side, geologists immediately came over to conduct a survey.

After being busy at the scene for a whole day, Li Yaohua returned to his Presidential Palace.

"Boss, the matter has been handled, but the United States side will send experts over to investigate." Li Yaohua asked tentatively: "Should we make some preparations first?"

Chen Jiajun said with a calm face: "It doesn't matter, let them investigate; they won't be able to find anything anyway."

Seeing Chen Jiajun's attitude, Li Yaohua was even more convinced of his own guess.

Chen Jiajun saw Li Yaohua's expression and guessed that he had already figured out what he was thinking.

So he said lightly: "It is just a type of weapon, not as terrifying as you imagine."

Hearing Chen Jiajun's explanation, Li Yaohua finally calmed down.

He had also gradually figured out the attributes of the characters summoned by the system: at first, they only had formidable physical bodies, and special abilities had to be slowly unlocked over time, which was also related to loyalty.

For example, White Queen; her various current abilities had not been truly unlocked at all, otherwise she wouldn't have accidentally killed one last time.

However, the abilities of these heroes were indeed useful, and could even play an unexpected role in some places.

The United States side ultimately sent an expert group over to investigate.

After all, a dozen elite CIA spies had died at once; not many people really believed it when it was called an accident.

After Li Yaohua knew it was Chen Jiajun who did it, he simply gave up on trying.

Let those Gweilo from the United States investigate however they wanted; they wouldn't be able to investigate anything anyway.

Sure enough, the expert group investigated for a week.

No matter from what angle one looked at it, only one conclusion could be drawn.

That was that the earthquake had caused the deaths of those dozen or so CIA spies.

Li Yaohua even curiously asked why those dozen or so members of the investigation team had separated from the main group and left.

This question left those Gweilo from the United States speechless, and they could only swallow this bitter pill.

Before long, the expert group left directly, and the remaining work continued.

However, this time Li Yaohua specifically assigned a pair of bodyguards from the Security Company to be responsible for the safety of these expert groups.

Everything was reasonable and logical.

It was just that in a certain CIA base, a certain person in charge of Asia was so angry that he smashed his own desk.

After the matters in Brunei were finished, Chen Jiajun returned directly to Hong Kong.

He also needed to digest the benefits he had obtained from the Gweilo of the United States.

He also sent a team of imp slaves over to carry out some construction-related renovations.

Otherwise, when the time came for the airport and Pier to be built, it would certainly not do to have no suitable highway.

Therefore, the construction of the highway was also put on the agenda.

A series of major developments brought earth-shaking changes to Brunei.

Everyone had their own things to do, and life was slowly getting better.

This brought Li Yaohua's approval rating to its peak.

"Boss, isn't this kind of investment a bit too aggressive?"

Seeing that Brunei was going to increase investment in electricity, Wei Li frowned and said.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said: "It's not aggressive at all; you can just find out from Li Yaohua when the time comes, the demand for electricity is very high."

Wei Li's heart stirred: "Are you planning to turn Brunei into Macau as well?"

Chen Jiajun shook his head: "It has nothing to do with me; this is the investment of those Gweilo from the United States. Since they want to help us with the development of Brunei and don't need us to use too many resources, why not do it?"

Wei Li suddenly realized, nodded and said: "Then I will immediately have the people from the China Light and Power Company go over."
