Alger felt immense pressure as Bai Xiaosheng and Chen Feiqiu discussed potential business deals with Anlos and Brady, allies of the Hogson Family. Bai Xiaosheng also revealed that Lisa, a crucial witness, had agreed to testify against someone, implying their impending downfall. Alger, fearing imprisonment and disinheritance, fled to find his uncle, Vanas, who was already seeking instructions from Alger's father. Both Alger and Vanas grew more anxious upon hearing that business arrangements were being made that could isolate the Hogson Family, leading Edgar Hogson to reluctantly accept a worst-case scenario and prepare to negotiate under duress.

After hanging up the phone, Vanas inadvertently glanced at Alger and immediately frowned.

"What are you still doing here? Hurry up and leave, it’s not good if someone sees you."

Alger repeatedly agreed, realizing that his father had compromised, feeling much more at ease.

Just as Alger turned to leave, Vanas frowned and said, "You’re leaving so soon?"

That would make it easy for the other party to realize that Alger had come to see him.

Overall, not a good idea.

"I really need to go to the bathroom now." Alger said with a strained expression, telling Vanas, "I really want to go."

Earlier, he was indeed quite frightened, so now, as he relaxed, he felt the urge to use the bathroom.

Vanas looked at his nephew helplessly, waving his hand to let him quickly leave his sight.

Alger didn’t linger any longer and hurriedly left.

...

In the hall, Bai Xiaosheng and others were drinking tea.

"Earlier, your stern demeanor and unyielding stance really startled me. I thought you actually intended to kick them out," Chen Feiqiu laughed softly with Bai Xiaosheng.

"Indeed, I really did want to kick them out." Bai Xiaosheng was not joking at all, "If I truly did that, the Chieftain would agree, right? After all, I am the Special Advisor with real power. You said it yourself, my decision is your decision."

Chen Feiqiu, seeing that Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t joking, was suddenly astonished.

"If I don’t act seriously, Vanas wouldn’t believe it!" Bai Xiaosheng said, "Besides, if they really want to leave, it’s not that easy. By the time they all move out, replacements would already be in. I happen to have suitable candidates in this regard, Huaxia and Western companies, as long as Oshan provides enough policies and incentives, there are plenty of options."

Chen Feiqiu swallowed his saliva, clicking his tongue in admiration.

"Of course, the best outcome is for the Hogson Family to honestly bow their heads."

Bai Xiaosheng glanced at the entrance of the hall, saying, "I bet this result is very likely."

If the Hogson Family bows to Oshan, this opening would breach the unity of the three giants. Coupled with some convenient "conditions," Anlos and Brady would no longer be a problem.

More importantly, it would make the Hogson Family aware of his power!

This is very important!

Bai Xiaosheng wanted to root himself in the Oshan commercial market, all the way to the West African Chieftain Union, needing powerful backers or allies.

The Hogson Family might be a suitable choice.

However, such super families always have an arrogant disposition, wary and defensive against outsiders. Discussing cooperation with them isn’t an issue, but once you want them to share the pie, it’s a different story.

So how can they be made to know when to advance and retreat, understand the importance of sharing and collaboration, is by showcasing one’s own strength while also making them "fear."

One must subdue them, making them cautious in any decision involving Bai Xiaosheng’s name, more willing to cooperate rather than confront.

Bai Xiaosheng held on to this mindset.

Of course, it wasn’t suitable to speak about this to Chen Feiqiu.

Ten minutes later, Alger returned, sitting opposite Bai Xiaosheng and Chen Feiqiu with a humble smile, quietly drinking tea.

After another twenty minutes, Vanas also returned.

After sitting down, Vanas apologized with a smile to Bai Xiaosheng and Chen Feiqiu, saying, "Sorry to keep you waiting, I was contacting Mr. Hogson earlier. Despite his illness, he instructed me to properly resolve this issue. The Hogson Family has always held absolute respect for Oshan and is willing to be rooted here. Next, I will convey Mr. Hogson’s sincerity to you both."

As Vanas spoke, he laid out the "sincerity" presented by the Hogson Family.

This time, there was no room for probing.

Bai Xiaosheng listened and nodded calmly.

This negotiation, it seems, has succeeded.

Beside him, Chen Feiqiu listened, feeling his heart stirred.

If these insights were shared with his parents, even they would be shocked.

What kind of person would it take to negotiate such a thing, making the Hogson Family give up so much!

Compared to the original expectations here, it exceeded by more than tenfold!
