The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

It wasn't the fierce clash he had imagined, which pleased Xu Hao greatly.

The two women sat down and planned out the future development direction, which was generally consistent with what Xu Hao had envisioned.

Liu Ruyan would be in charge of the Xu Liu Group's headquarters, while Qin Yao would manage the cosmetics division. The headquarters mainly produced jade artifacts, and their responsibilities were clearly divided.

Xu Hao silently rejoiced, but then Qin Yao suddenly said, "Brother Hao, I've looked at the formula you gave me, and I think it will be challenging for us to produce with our current equipment. We need to purchase some of the latest equipment from abroad."

Since Liu Ruyan was present, Qin Yao refrained from calling Xu Hao a bad person, a term of endearment typically reserved for their private moments.

Xu Hao had thought he could relax, only to find Qin Yao assigning him a task.

Liu Ruyan also spoke up, "That's right. You want to protect Little Sister Suyi, but that's not a long-term plan. You can't protect her forever. You should do some things as well."

Xu Hao thought, if I told you what I really want to do, it would definitely scare both of you!

However, he wasn't concerned—the task of equipment procurement wasn't troublesome. He just needed Wang Zhong to investigate which company had the best options.

But when Wang Zhong learned about the task, he said, "Young Master, not to conceal anything from you, the world's best industrial machinery and cosmetics equipment manufacturer is America's Mark Family. But due to various restrictions, our people can't deal with them openly in America, so we are unable to help you with this."

"Various restrictions? What restrictions?" Xu Hao asked.

"Alas, I don't know the specifics. You'll have to wait for your father to tell you in person," Wang Zhong said helplessly.

"Alright, I understand," Xu Hao replied.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Hao muttered to himself, "Dad's already so powerful, yet he still has adversaries, and it seems they are quite formidable. This shows there are many exceptional individuals in the world. Now they say America will also restrict activities; this is getting interesting. As time passes, more and more mysteries come to the surface, but my strength still isn't sufficient. I need to become stronger to share my father's burden!"

…

While Xu Hao was diligently cultivating, a significant piece of news swept across most of Tiannan Province—the world's number one auction house, Didixiya Auction House, was going to hold a world tour auction event in Jing'an City, Tiannan Province.

Upon receiving this news, many people from Huadu were perplexed; why Jing'an, a second- or third-tier small city, and not Huadu, a cosmopolitan metropolis?

However, when Didixiya Auction House provided their reason, no one from Huadu questioned further—the general agent for this session of the Huaya Branch was from Jing'an City.

All the upper echelon of Jing'an City received notifications that the auction would take place in seven days in the basement of the Jing'an International Hotel.

It wasn't that they didn't want the auction at the highest level, but because there would be too many attendees on that day. Only the basement had enough space for tens of thousands of people, and its decoration was luxurious as well, in no way undermining the auction event's grandeur.

Everyone who got the news was looking forward to it, as every auction of Didixiya Auction House usually had many valuable items for sale.

The slogan of Didixiya Auction House was—there is nothing you can think of that we can't get!

Their auction items included meteorites from outer space, rocks from the deepest point on Earth in the Marina Trench, magma from volcanoes, and even ownership of islands, as well as the sovereignty of some small countries were up for trade...

In short, there was a vast array of rare and strange items.

As a result, countless people were flocking to Jing'an at this very moment.

Whether it was the big shots from Huadu, the richest tycoons from other cities, or even the magnates from other provinces, many came.

Just a single auction event had brought about a spectacle to Jing'an City far exceeding that of any festival.

This once quiet second-tier city was now abuzz with undercurrents and restlessness.

The arrival of various heavyweights put pressure on the local forces of Jing'an City, leading to their suppression or support, no longer with a one-size-fits-all approach.

Chen Suyi received the news and immediately declared her intent to be present at the auction, for she knew that an item she had long desired but never obtained would be on sale.

Liu Ruyan also got wind of the news and informed Xu Hao.

However, Xu Hao wasn't too interested in it; he was busy practicing the Cultivation Technique from his heritage, strengthening his own power.

He had already reached the Great Perfection Mastery Level and vaguely felt that he might soon reach Grandmaster Level.

Becoming a Grandmaster Level gave one the right to call oneself powerful.

But then, Xu Hao received an invitation from Elder Chen.

In the message, Elder Chen said not to underestimate Didixiya Auction House, as among their weird and wonderful auction items, there might just be something Xu Hao needed.

Xu Hao knew that someone like Elder Chen wouldn't speak lightly, so he immediately agreed to go.
