It was discovered that Chen Qinglong's ribs were indeed broken in two places.
Ouyang Xue couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Yu, if the cultivation pill is really that effective!"
"You should have gotten one for Chen Qinglong too!"
"Chen Qinglong has a very solid martial arts foundation and his physical condition is much better than yours!"
"If he could have a cultivation pill, who knows how much his strength would increase!"
Ouyang Yu nodded in agreement, "I had the same idea!"
"By the way, Sister, since you don't have anything particularly important to do in the country right now, why don't you stay in Kai Xuan City for a longer period?"
"There are actually many... fun places here, I'll take you around to have some fun later!"
Ouyang Xue grinned and replied, "Xiao Yu, stop teasing me!"
"This coastal area has a dry and unbearable hot climate, what good places can there be!"
"I came here, at most, to look at the sea view by the beach, I wouldn't dare to go into the desert!"
Ouyang Yu chuckled, "You wouldn't understand this..."
"You should rest well today, and I'll take you to a fun place tomorrow!"
...
Sen Luo Kingdom, Kai Xuan Development Zone.
A group of luxuriously dressed imperial nobles arrived at the Ya Meng Grand Hotel as a group.
The Ya Meng Grand Hotel was a hotel directly invested and established by Liu Kai Xuan.
Currently, this hotel was the largest in the entire Sen Luo Empire.
Its comprehensive investment scale even surpassed that of the Imperial Hotel.
However, the development zone was still in its early stages of development.
There were very few customers who could afford to stay at the Ya Meng Grand Hotel, and the hotel's business volume was not very good.
The arrival of this group of noble bigwigs today did make the deserted hotel a lot livelier.
The hotel environment was very good, and the service attitude of the waiters was very enthusiastic.
However, the moods of the hotel bigwigs were not happy at all.
The person at the head said indignantly.
"This Liu Kai Xuan is too arrogant!"
"So many of us came to the development zone to investigate cooperation!"
"He himself did not come to greet us, at least he should have sent an important person from the company to greet us!"
"To dare to neglect and ignore us like this, it's simply outrageous!"
"That's right!"
Several others chimed in:
"This kid Liu Kai Xuan is truly too arrogant!"
"He came to our Sen Luo Kingdom, snatched our livelihoods, and he dares to be so arrogant and overbearing?"
"If it weren't for the strict discipline of His Majesty, I would really want to kill this arrogant kid!"
"Brother, you should say less!"
"Liu Kai Xuan is lawless. If he hears you say these words, it will be a big trouble!"
"What am I afraid of?"
"If Liu Kai Xuan dares to attack me, I will fight him to the death. Others may fear this brat, but I don't fear him!"
"Alright, alright, stop arguing here!"
Grand Duke Mang Lan said loudly, "First, get rooms at the hotel and settle down!"
"Then, immediately contact Liu Kai Xuan and ask him to come and greet us!"
"Our inspection work this time was personally assigned to us by His Majesty!"
"Even if Liu Kai Xuan doesn't give us face, he has to give His Majesty face!"
"Otherwise, he'll never be able to get by in the Sen Luo Kingdom, humph!"
The actual situation was as follows.
The war in Kai Ya Kingdom had been going on for several months.
Although the war between the two sides had not yet been decided, the royal family's attitude towards a decisive battle was very strong.
Although the noble armed forces had not shown signs of defeat, some scattered minor nobles had already begun to accept the royal reorganization.
If the war continued at this pace, the defeat of the noble forces coalition would probably only be a matter of time.
The noble bigwigs of the Sen Luo Kingdom had been closely following the developments of the war in Kai Ya Kingdom.
The noble coalition forces in Kai Ya Kingdom had suffered heavy losses in this battle and had already shown signs of impending defeat.
This was a loud warning to the noble bigwigs of the Sen Luo Kingdom.
If the war in Kai Ya Kingdom ended with the imperial army achieving a great victory, the Sen Luo Kingdom's royal family would likely follow suit.
At that time, various noble forces would face the same situation.
Therefore, the noble forces of the Sen Luo Kingdom had already taken the initiative to act.
They actively united to "cooperate" with the imperial royal family.
Of course, according to the cooperation plan they proposed, their own interests would definitely be prioritized.
This was mainly reflected in the profit-sharing ratio.
In the Kai Ya Kingdom, Kai Yadun's profit-sharing ratio for various noble forces was: 3:3:4.
The royal family took 30%, the noble forces took 30%, and Count Kai Xuan took 40%.
However, the profit-sharing ratio proposed by Grand Duke Mang Lan and others was a 2:2:6 model!
The royal family took 20%, Liu Kai Xuan took 20%, and the remaining 60% belonged to the noble forces.
Although the noble bigwigs lost 40% of their profits, the use of Liu Kai Xuan's new technology could greatly increase the efficiency of oil field development.
Overall, after the oil field exploitation technology was fully upgraded, the noble forces would actually earn more profits than they did now.
With this kind of cooperation model, everyone would profit, and contradictions and disputes would be avoided.
After Mang Lan and others proposed this cooperation plan, they were the first to discuss it with Sen Kai.
Sen Kai's attitude towards this matter was ambiguous. He told Mang Lan and the others to talk to Liu Kai Xuan themselves.
After all, the oil field industry upgrade work was all to be invested and carried out by Liu Kai Xuan.
As long as Liu Kai Xuan agreed, construction could begin immediately.
But if Liu Kai Xuan disagreed, it would be useless even if Sen Kai agreed.
Sen Kai's personality was different from Kai Yadun's.
Kai Yadun was eager for quick success and wanted to suck the blood out of others.
Sen Kai had more foresight in this regard than Kai Yadun.
If the cooperation project was successful, the royal family would get a 20% permanent dividend for free.
Such a good thing was hard to find even with a lantern, so why would Sen Kai refuse?
However, reducing the equity from 30% to 20% by Mang Lan and others was not a good thing for Liu Kai Xuan.
This was because the upgrade and construction of oil field infrastructure required Liu Kai Xuan to invest heavily in development.
Almost all the investment was made by Liu Kai Xuan, but in the end, Liu Kai Xuan could only get 20% of the profit after the oil field was successfully developed.
In this way, it might take many years for Liu Kai Xuan to recoup his investment in the oil field.
From a businessman's perspective, the profit from this investment was not very large.
