Bai Xiaosheng orchestrated a meeting with the general manager of Xuanjin Company, Mr. Ande. After some initial pleasantries and a hesitant agreement to visit, Bai Xiaosheng revealed his true intention: to tour the company's subsidiary factories and research centers immediately. Mr. Ande was put on the spot, unable to refuse without revealing internal issues, and was further pressured when Bai Xiaosheng produced identification from the headquarters' inspection department.

The exquisite design of this identification card unmistakably points to a significant individual from the Surveillance Department!

Mr. Ande's eyes widened in shock; while his knowledge was limited, he grasped the immense authority that card represented!

If Bai Xiaosheng decided to place him under suspension right then, even Mr. Brown would be powerless to intervene. If he chose to use this status to make an unscheduled 'visit,' who would dare object!

"You wish to, to visit? Of course, no problem at all!" Mr. Ande conceded instantly.

Peeking from behind Mr. Ande, his secretary appeared perplexed.

The significance of that small card, and the profound 'mental' impact it had on his general manager, was lost on him.

"I merely showed you this as a courtesy, with no intent to complicate matters. I simply thought a casual visit while awaiting Mr. Brown would be more pleasant than sitting here idly. What do you say, Mr. Ande?" Bai Xiaosheng inquired pleasantly, tucking his identification away.

Showing deference before demonstrating power, the imposing aura he projected was then subtly withdrawn, leaving no trace. Bai Xiaosheng's display of authority had left Mr. Ande completely outmaneuvered.

"Since you're keen on looking around, I'll guide you immediately." Mr. Ande responded with a plastered smile.

"Shall we head out now?" Bai Xiaosheng's smile widened.

"Right now!" Mr. Ande affirmed without hesitation.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying observed this exchange with secret admiration, feeling a sense of satisfaction.

Subsequently, Bai Xiaosheng, accompanied by his two companions, followed Mr. Ande as they toured the facilities, moving from one area to another, with the main building as their starting point.

This exploration continued until one in the afternoon before they finally concluded their tour.

Bai Xiaosheng absorbed a great deal during the visit, committing much to memory.

By the end, Bai Xiaosheng was genuinely fatigued, and it was only upon Mr. Ande's persistent invitations that they proceeded to a three-Michelin-starred establishment for a meal, savoring local cuisine with Western influences.

After dining, it was nearly three in the afternoon, and still, no word had arrived from Mr. Brown.

Bai Xiaosheng did not prolong his stay, offering his farewells to the accompanying Mr. Ande and the young Black gentleman.

Despite their evident eagerness for him to depart, their expressions betrayed a sense of relief.

In Bai Xiaosheng's perception, their underlying thought was crystal clear: "Finally, he's leaving!"

Bai Xiaosheng acknowledged their feelings inwardly but chose to feign ignorance.

The car, arranged by Hou Yuncheng, was ready and waiting. With Mr. Ande and his team seeing them off, Bai Xiaosheng and his companions entered the vehicle and journeyed back to Moribido City.

The return trip was marked by silence.

Upon their arrival back at the group's accommodation, Bai Xiaosheng sought out Hou Yuncheng privately.

Although this particular expedition concluded without securing an agreement, it was not entirely without merit. Bai Xiaosheng had surveyed the "Xuanjin" company, observing numerous aspects that were now etched in his mind. Certain elements required specialized knowledge for full comprehension, but this information could be processed through Red Lotus, effectively granting him indirect insights.

In essence, Bai Xiaosheng was now capable of compiling materials for domestic enterprises to reference or integrate into collaborative projects with local companies, drawing upon advanced international practices.

Therefore, this trip could not be deemed a complete failure for Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng's visit to Hou Yuncheng was not weighed down by excessive disappointment, as Hou Yuncheng had dispatched Jia Chengshan to another rare earth enterprise, apparently with considerable confidence.

Should that venture prove successful, even if Bai Xiaosheng's own negotiations proved unsuccessful, his overall sentiment might not be overly grim.

Unexpectedly, upon knocking on Hou Yuncheng's door, Bai Xiaosheng discovered another individual already present.

It was Jia Chengshan.

He had also returned.

Bai Xiaosheng offered a smile and a greeting to Jia Chengshan, who reciprocated with warmth.

"Mr. Jia, did your endeavors proceed smoothly?" Bai Xiaosheng inquired.

Both Hou Yuncheng and Jia Chengshan were masters at concealing their emotions, yet Bai Xiaosheng detected a subtle undercurrent of seriousness in the room that piqued his interest.

Noticing Bai Xiaosheng's question, Jia Chengshan's brows knitted together, and he let out a deep sigh, his voice tinged with dejection. "It's hardly worth mentioning. By the time I arrived, someone had already preempted our efforts and finalized a deal with them."

Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback by the severity of the situation.

"Who could have possibly secured it before us?" Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but ask.

Jia Chengshan glanced towards Hou Yuncheng.

After a shared look between Hou Yuncheng and Jia Chengshan, a name was slowly revealed to Bai Xiaosheng, "It seems they were indeed no ordinary individual."

"It was Mr. Brown!"
