Chapter 1611 1614: Next Step, the Jade Market!
"The Avengers Alliance, what kind of organization is it?" Xu Hao turned to look at the Moon Goddess Successor.
She glared at Xu Hao and said, "I'm not Bai Xiaosheng, how could I possibly know everything? This isn't within my knowledge base. Who knows what this so-called Avengers Alliance is? Maybe it's just a small-time organization not worth mentioning."
"It's definitely not a small organization if there's an Early Stage Grandmaster level expert running errands for them. Do you really think such an organization would be small? But since they dare to openly enter and leave Groundhog's residence, and even dare to flip off the camera on their way out, it shows they're not afraid of us at all."
"Not afraid at all, huh? Then let's just take them out! Go ahead, I'll support you in spirit," she laughed lightly.
"Stop with the nonsense. I've already had my people investigate this Avengers Alliance. But the last time Xiao Yao sent someone to assassinate Xiang Shang, we still haven't figured out who was behind that person's death. Perhaps it was the Avengers Alliance's doing?" Xu Hao gently tapped his fingers on the table, pondering slowly.
"It's possible, but not certain. After all, we don't have any evidence. But last time, I was indeed reckless. I dispatched someone to kill Xiang Shang without informing you, which led to that brother's death. Although I've compensated his family to the best of my ability, it can't bring him back to life," Qin Yao said, deeply remorseful.
"Don't be too remorseful. People like us, we're all living with our heads on the line. Life and death, fortune and misfortune are just part of human nature, there's no need to be too saddened."
Xu Hao gently patted Qin Yao's shoulder, then said, "Our Xu Liu Group is involved in the jade artifacts and cosmetics industries. We are sure to win against the Tio Group in this competition, so there's no need to worry. We already have a huge market in cosmetics throughout Quan Huaya City, but our jade market share isn't enough. Xiao Yao, do you have any good methods to quickly expand the jade market share?"
Qin Yao nodded slightly and said, "Actually, I don't know much about the jade sector, as Sister Ruyan handles it most of the time. But I know Zhao Feng from our jade department is your classmate, and you introduced him to Old Gu, Gu Junyi. I think you might have overlooked the connection with Old Gu."
"Gu Junyi?"
Xu Hao thought for a moment and said, "I remember. Old Gu is indeed a national treasure-level appraiser, and he's also from Tiannan Province. Back then, he wanted to take me as a disciple, but I didn't agree. I recommended Zhao Feng to become his disciple. Now, Zhao Feng is our Xu Liu Group's chief carving master in the jade department.
If we could invite Old Gu to be our chief consultant, it would greatly improve our jade department's situation, and then we could further expand into the Huaya and even the world market."
"Yeah, that's what I meant. However, Old Gu is known for his carefree lifestyle, so if we directly invite him, he probably wouldn't agree easily. We need a catalyst. No need to rush this matter now. It's been three or four days, so my clinical trial group should have seen changes in height."
Xu Hao stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go, let's head to Huaya's Tio Group Headquarters and watch the Tio Group's people's jokes."
Meanwhile, Xu Hao posted on his personal account, "Kavendi, I'm going to the conference room to check the experimental data. My group should have shown significant changes by now."
Upon seeing Xu Hao's words, Kavendi immediately replied, "Xu Hao, are you out of your mind?! It's only been three or four days; how much change could there be? It's as if you're dreaming!"
Xu Hao quickly replied, "Kavendi, I dare bet that my group has already grown by at least one centimeter on average. Do you dare bet with me?"
The experimental subjects had been lying in bed all these days, unable to do any other activities; they weren't eating, just receiving regular, measured doses of nutrient solutions.
And the height measurement required activating the measuring device, so neither Xu Hao nor Kavendi knew the specific data yet.
Kavendi glanced at Owen and asked, "What do you think?"
Owen immediately felt troubled. He wanted to completely defeat Xu Hao because then, he himself could earn a lot of money; he'd also have contributed to this event.
But was Xu Hao really speaking with such undeniable conviction?
Could it be that he already knew something in advance?
Owen had to remind, "Young Chairman, I have no understanding of this myself. After all, those data are only available after measurement. But we can't measure now because Xu Hao's people are watching, so this is purely a gamble. We're betting on whether Xu Hao's new product is genuinely effective!"
