Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2788 - 1972: Mr. Guoba (Part 2)

This "Mr. Guoba" is indeed "straightforward", he poured it all out in one go.

Bai Xiaosheng heard about the tendering meeting, and there was a slight flash in his eyes.

Beside him, Lin Weiwei already curiously asked, "Mr. Guoba, what tendering meeting are you participating in?"

"Mr. Guoba" seemed to realize he had said a bit too much. After hesitating for a moment, he still said, "It’s a tender released by Lan GO Company... Oh, you might not have heard of Lan GO Company, but you must have heard of the Zhenbei Group, a global super consortium. Lan GO Company is one of its subsidiaries. I heard the amount involved in this tender is astonishingly large."

The three of them, Bai Xiaosheng, exchanged a silent glance.

Lin Weiwei said with a smile, "It must be a very important tender meeting. Did Mr. Auston send you alone to handle it? No assistants?"

Upon hearing this, "Mr. Guoba" immediately laughed.

"Miss, do you think I can’t handle this matter on my own?"

"No, no, I didn’t mean that." Lin Weiwei hurriedly said.

"Mr. Guoba" shrugged indifferently, quite open-heartedly, "Actually, it’s quite normal for you to have doubts. I can indeed handle it myself because it’s just a formality, no matter how large the amount is, it has nothing to do with us. It’s enough just to come in the name of the family."

His candor left Lin Weiwei a bit stunned, her mind somewhat blank as she didn’t know how to continue.

"Mr. Auston talked to me about this matter too." Bai Xiaosheng calmly said, "He said there have been many such tender meetings. Lan GO Company has many cooperations with our family, so it’s only right for us to help out."

"Mr. Guoba" was surprised and looked at Bai Xiaosheng, "Did my uncle already tell you all this?"

Bai Xiaosheng smiled, "So you don’t have to feel like sharing this with me is leaking any secret."

Upon hearing this, "Mr. Guoba" instantly felt relieved and laughed, "In that case, there’s absolutely no problem telling you."

Feeling more at ease, "Mr. Guoba" said a few more words, "Initially, it wasn’t my turn to handle such matters. It was always someone important from the family. One day, my uncle called me and entrusted this responsibility to me."

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying couldn’t help but exchange a glance, their eyes full of humor.

Perhaps Mr. Auston thought such a matter wasn’t worth the time of important people.

Anyway, it’s just going through the motions, so sending someone less important would suffice, nothing would go wrong...

However, it’s clear that "Mr. Guoba" didn’t think that way...

"Mr. Guoba, are you going to the tendering meeting this afternoon? We’d like to go with you." Bai Xiaosheng said.

"Mr. Guoba" was surprised, "It’s just a tender meeting, you shouldn’t be unfamiliar with it, it’s just going through the motions, what’s there to see?"

"It’s nothing, just bored and want to join, to be your entourage." Bai Xiaosheng said, "You can ask your uncle first, I don’t think he would oppose."

"Mr. Guoba" waved his hand repeatedly, laughing, "I don’t dare let you be my entourage."

"But with this matter..." "Mr. Guoba" thought for a moment and decided, "I can call the shots! It’s just to have a look, let’s go together!"

Bai Xiaosheng immediately gave him a thumbs up, "Mr. Auston certainly didn’t misjudge, you really can hold your own and make decisions."

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying also chimed in with praise.

"Mr. Guoba" smiled modestly, yet with a hint of pride.

Chatting along the way, they soon stopped in front of a large restaurant.

"Mr. Guoba" smiled and said, "Let’s enjoy lunch first, have a break after the meal, and then head over. Actually, for the tender meeting, we just need to show up, there’s really nothing worth seeing."

Bai Xiaosheng smiled and didn’t mention the tender meeting, "I heard that the blue lobster on Liwu Island is quite a delicacy, I’ve wanted to try it for a long time."

Talking about food, "Mr. Guoba" got excited, "I must introduce it to you guys properly later."

As he spoke, "Mr. Guoba" swiftly got out of the car and personally stood at the door, raising his hand to shield the three people’s heads.

After getting out of the car, Bai Xiaosheng and the others nodded silently at the unique and grand restaurant in front of them.

It seems that Mr. "Guoba" is truly dedicated to preparing the meal.

Everyone made their way into the restaurant’s private room. "Guoba," as if he had found the most specialized area of his life, began introducing Bai Xiaosheng and the others to Liwu Island’s specialties and delicacies, with knowledge as thorough as if counting from his own family treasures.

The dishes were quickly served, and "Guoba" took the opportunity to explain while enjoying the food enthusiastically.

Bai Xiaosheng and his companions avoided mentioning work entirely to keep the mood lively, focusing their conversation solely on eating and drinking.

"Guoba" talked about local delicacies, while Bai Xiaosheng and his friends introduced Huaxia’s exquisite cuisine to him.

Through such a conversation, "Guoba’s" admiration for Huaxia was clearly evident.

This meal indeed was enjoyable for hosts and guests alike, and "Guoba’s" fondness for Bai Xiaosheng and his companions surged upward.

After the meal, "Guoba" had the remaining dishes cleared and served the renowned local black tea and coffee.

Lin Weiwei sniffed the uniquely fragrant coffee aroma lingering in the air, lifted it up and asked, "What kind of coffee is this? It smells wonderful, yet seems quite different from what we usually drink."

As she spoke, Lin Weiwei took a small sip.

"This is Liwu Island’s famous civet coffee. We let the musk cat eat coffee beans, wait for it to excrete them, then process them." "Guoba" explained with a laugh while tasting.

Lin Weiwei’s expression changed slightly, discreetly spat the coffee back, and placed the cup down.

Though the coffee was indeed a specialty, she found it somewhat difficult to accept.

"Drink it. The extraction process of this coffee is quite special, you need to drink it hot for the full flavor, it loses its taste when cooled." "Guoba" urged.

Lin Weiwei forced a smile and did not touch it again.

Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying saw Lin Weiwei’s awkwardness and chuckled silently, raising their cups of black tea to each other with a leisurely sip.

"Speaking of the black tea, it is actually quite unique too." "Guoba" couldn’t help but say.

"Enough, no need to say more!" Bai Xiaosheng quickly stopped him, placing the teacup down, "’Mr. Guoba,’ why don’t we head to the bidding site?"

Lei Ying also gave the tea cup a curious look and put it down.

"Ah, right now?" "Guoba" glanced at his watch and said to Bai Xiaosheng, "Wouldn’t it be too early, it only takes half an hour to get there, we still have two hours until the meeting."

"Then let’s talk about Lan GO Company." Bai Xiaosheng said, "Actually, it’s not just about this company, I’ve heard that in the Mogran Islands there are several Zhenbei Group subsidiaries."

"Guoba" nodded, surprised, "There are, how come you’re so particularly interested in them?"

Bai Xiaosheng replied calmly, "Apart from your local family, aren’t the largest ones under the Zhenbei Group?"

This was quite a compliment from Bai Xiaosheng.

Upon hearing Bai Xiaosheng say that his family was ahead of those Zhenbei Group companies, "Guoba" broke into a happy smile, "Then let me tell you more."

This fellow was indeed quite talkative; it’s no wonder he was assigned to such a routine task.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying exchanged glances, amused.

Next, "Guoba" went on to introduce Bai Xiaosheng and his companions to several Zhenbei Group companies in Mogran.

Though these details could be found on the internet, coming from someone’s mouth provided additional information.

From the words of a local like "Guoba," some interesting pieces of information emerged.

Once the conversation dwindled, Bai Xiaosheng timely reminded "Guoba" that it was time to go to the bidding meeting.

"Guoba" checked the time and immediately nodded, "It’s roughly time for that, let’s go."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaosheng stood up first.

He was determined to see what such a bidding meeting would be like!
