Novel Full Chapter 696 - 344: Brutal Yuanqi, Contract Obstructed (Part 3)
A resource company cannot be accused lightly, especially when the Southern Island’s military system still relies on the resources provided by the Essence Feast to complete the war. Every step must be extremely cautious.
“Mr. Fang Yu, this is the office of our Market Director, Chang Dong.”
At this moment, two security guards stopped walking, turned their heads, and smiled as they spoke to Fang Yu.
“Chang Dong? Isn’t your Market Director named Li Min?”
“Li Min?”
The two looked puzzled and then shook their heads: “We’ve never heard of anyone named Li Min. Since we joined the company, Director Chang Dong has been the Market Director.”
Fang Yu observed the expressions on their faces and saw that their confusion didn’t seem to be feigned. He nodded slightly without saying much.
The two quickly knocked on the office door, announced their intentions, and soon invited Fang Yu inside.
Fang Yu stepped forward, still remaining cautious. His gaze quickly shifted to the man sitting behind the desk—a man who appeared sharp and upright, dressed in a well-fitted suit that immediately gave a professional and competent impression.
Completely different from the crafty and ruthless “Director Li Min” whom Fang Yu had met before.
Witnessing this scene, Fang Yu felt a bit of doubt.
Could it be that he wrongly accused Essence Feast?
The twelve experts of the Phantom Realm may have nothing to do with Essence Feast and were just secretly lurking in the hall, subtly imprinting illusions?
“Colonel Fang Yu!”
Upon seeing Fang Yu enter the room, Chang Dong immediately stood up, with a friendly smile on his face, and walked over to Fang Yu, extending his hand:
“Hello, I am Chang Dong, the Market Director of Essence Feast. Here is my business card!”
As he spoke, Chang Dong shook hands with Fang Yu and skillfully took out a business card, respectfully handing it to Fang Yu with both hands.
Fang Yu nodded, casually keeping the card, then turned his gaze to Chang Dong in front of him and directly said:
“Director Chang, is your company owner present? I am here under military district orders to discuss the recent situation in the Lanyun Sea Country and sign a frontline resource procurement contract with your company.”
Upon hearing Fang Yu’s words, Chang Dong glanced at Fang Yu, then suddenly revealed a troubled expression:
“Oh dear, Colonel Fang Yu, you’ve really come at a bad time. Our boss is currently on a business trip abroad, developing business in other sea countries, and is not in the company.”
“Not in the company?” Fang Yu frowned, looking at Chang Dong before speaking: “Even though your boss is on a business trip, he should have received intelligence on the recent developments in Lanyun Sea Country, right? He should have anticipated the military district coming to sign a contract and should have authorized other management levels in your company to sign the frontline procurement contract, right?”
Upon hearing Fang Yu’s words, Chang Dong showed a troubled and embarrassed expression: “Well… to be honest, Colonel Fang Yu, when our boss left, Lanyun Sea Country hadn’t shown any signs of war, so he was unaware.”
“Moreover, the sea country our boss went to is quite far from Nanhui City, making it difficult for regular communication methods to reach him. I’ve already sent someone to the area where our boss is to notify him of this matter.”
“But… the round trip will take at least five days, so Colonel Fang Yu might need to wait a few days…”
Chang Dong’s face showed deep apology: “The level of the frontline resource procurement contract is too high. Even as the Market Director, I don’t have the authority to sign such a high-level contract, my apologies!”
