Chapter 198 is really an eye-opener!
"Sir, are you interested in going to the rooftop swimming pool together?"

"Sorry, I don't have this idea for the time being!" Su Chen once again rejected the invitation of a sexy beauty with a charming figure.

When the beauty saw that Su Chen didn't even look at her, she knew that Su Chen had no feelings for her, so she turned around and walked into the crowd.

At first, Su Chen thought that this party was of a very high-end kind, but soon Su Chen discovered that it was a little different from what he had imagined.

It is not like what Arthur said before, that the top chaebols exchange some secret information with each other or obtain business channels that are unknown to the general public from each other.

But at the scene, there was a group of people surrounding Arthur, John, Abdul and others, trying to please them in various ways, and some socialites from well-known families were wearing sexy and refreshing clothes and sticking to them.

Moreover, Su Chen also discovered that most of the people attending the party were socialites from middle and lower class families. They were all dressed very beautifully, showing off their features to the fullest.

The few men who attended the party had unusual backgrounds. I asked John about them when I was chatting with him before, and he said that they were from top families in various countries, and each of them had a great influence in the local area.

Thinking of this, a pyramid model emerged in Su Chen's mind.

That’s right~it’s the pyramid.

These beautiful ladies and socialites from various countries are the bottom two layers of the pyramid, representing many middle and lower class families. Above them are the upper class families and the few top families at the top of the pyramid.

As long as these socialites can maintain good relations with the people in the two upper levels, their family's development this year will naturally be smooth. If they accidentally get close to Arthur and others, they might even take off directly.

Correspondingly, as long as a little bit of money leaks out through the gaps between the fingers of the people in the top two layers, it is enough for the people below to have a full meal, and they will also have a group of obedient "people"!
Arthur, John, Abdul and others who stand at the top can rely on these middle and lower families to extend their tentacles to countries around the world. As long as they see huge benefits, they can discover them at the first time.

This is simply a community of interests!
Su Chen had a terrifying feeling when he thought about it carefully. This was just a small group formed by Arthur, John and others, which made Su Chen feel a little shocked.

If this is a community of interests formed by those top chaebols, then the interest relations behind it must be so complex and huge!

All kinds of thoughts flooded into his mind at once, and Su Chen fell into deep thought.

"What are you thinking about?"

I don't know when Arthur walked over to Su Chen and sat down.

With a start, Su Chen came back to his senses from his thoughts.

Only then did he realize that the once bustling party room was now empty, even John and Abdul were nowhere to be seen.

"Uh~ I wasn't thinking about anything. Is the party over? Where are John and the others?"

As Su Chen spoke, he also looked at the watch on his wrist. It seemed like less than ten minutes had passed, so how come everyone was gone?

Arthur showed an intriguing smile on his face, and put his finger to his mouth to signal Su Chen not to speak and listen carefully.

Su Chen was stunned for a moment, but still pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

Sure enough, waves of faint murmurs and hums came from upstairs, accompanied by a lot of laughter. Su Chen instantly knew what these people were doing.

Multiplayer!

If it weren't for the group sport, Su Chen would have been able to drink up the Pacific Ocean. The sounds of "oh~yes" were getting louder and louder, and several voices were heard at the same time, giving a sense of competition.

Su Chen couldn't help but take a breath. These young masters of the top chaebols had so many tricks up their sleeves that they even organized competitions for group sports. One had to admire how well these people knew how to have fun.

"Do you want me to help you contact a few? I guarantee that they are all European aristocratic ladies and will make you feel great." Arthur put his arm around Su Chen's shoulders and said with a wink.

A hint of pride flashed in Arthur's eyes. He had used this trick before to drag John, Abdul and others into the water.

Think about it, those European aristocratic ladies appear in major newspapers from time to time, but now they are surrendering to the public. That kind of sense of accomplishment cannot be experienced by just playing around with celebrities.

Arthur thought that his trick would also work on Su Chen, but unfortunately he didn't understand Su Chen. He really liked beautiful women, especially those with slender branches and beautiful women with great fruits.

But he didn't like playing games that others had played before, let alone when everyone was playing together. The thought of it made Su Chen feel a little uncomfortable.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not very interested in group sex." Su Chen tactfully rejected Arthur's proposal.

Hearing this, the smile on Arthur's face froze. He never thought that there would be a man who didn't like beautiful women, especially those of noble status.

After my eyes stayed on Su Chen's face for a moment, I thought about what Su Chen said about not liking sports with a lot of people, and wondered if it was because Su Chen was a little shy.

He had heard before that there was a big gap between the bodies of Oriental people and those of Europeans and Americans, so maybe he felt a little inferior because there were so many people around.

Arthur quickly figured out the reason why Su Chen refused.

If Su Chen knew about Arthur's bizarre imagination, he would have to raise his hand and take out his magic weapon "Ruyi Jingu Bang" to beat those beauties upstairs to death with two sticks.

"It's okay, brother. I understand you. I'll arrange it for you when we return to Manhattan!" Arthur looked at Su Chen with an expression of "Brother, I understand you" and comforted him.

Su Chen was also a little scared by his look, and immediately stood up from the sofa, "Go and have fun by yourself, I'll go out for a walk, call me when you're done."

After saying that, he walked quickly towards the door. Arthur did not expect Su Chen's reaction to be so big. He shrugged, shook his head, and muttered softly: "Hey, it seems that I still need to work harder!"

After sitting on the sofa and thinking for a while, Arthur got up and walked upstairs. After all, exciting things were waiting for him upstairs.

After Su Chen came out of the villa, he saw Chen Fei and Raymond leaning against a tree in the distance smoking. From time to time, they were pointing and talking about something upstairs, and occasionally there was a smile on their faces that all men understand.

"Hey~ what are you two watching? You look so engrossed in it."

Raymond and the other man were so engrossed in watching that they didn't notice Su Chen walking around the fence next to them and coming behind them. The sudden sound startled them.

"BOSS~ You're going to scare people to death like that!" There was a faint resentment in Raymond's words, as if he was about to pick up his gun and mount his horse, but suddenly someone broke in, and he was so scared that he retracted his gun.

Even Chen Fei who was standing beside him had the same expression.

Su Chen glanced at the two of them, followed their gaze in the direction of the villa, and saw the large lights attached to the floor-to-ceiling windows. He finally understood why the two of them looked like that.

He glared at the two of them in anger and cursed in a low voice: "You are such a loser. When we get back to Manhattan and have a day off, go have fun on your own."

I thought Raymond and Fade Chen would be very happy, but who knew that Raymond would feel aggrieved.

"Boss, how can those vulgar women compare to these celebrities? They are not even on the same level!"

Of course Su Chen also understood this. After all, the rich people in the country also like these things. Things like parachuting, internet celebrities, and stars are all divided into levels, and the feelings of different levels are different.

"If you are interested, I will tell Arthur. As the head of IPS, you are more than qualified to join such an event!" Su Chen looked at Raymond and said jokingly. "Ah~ Boss, there is such a good thing." Raymond saw a fierce look in Su Chen's eyes before he finished speaking, and Raymond quickly changed the subject.

"Boss, I, Raymond, am not the kind of person who would be tempted by beauty, not to mention that I'm already married. Boss, please don't make such jokes in the future!" Raymond said seriously.

If Su Chen hadn't seen his eyes drifting towards the second, third and fourth floors of the villa from time to time, he would have really believed his lies.

"Okay~ Let's go for a walk around, there's no point staying here!" Su Chen didn't want to continue this topic, so he walked towards the main road next to the villa.

The entire villa is located at the very tip of Long Island, surrounded by some top-notch beachfront villas, which is why there aren’t many people around.

After wandering around for more than an hour and feeling a little tired, Su Chen and the other two simply found a place to sit and enjoy the sea view and started chatting.

"Raymond, what do you think of Arthur?" Su Chen asked suddenly, looking towards the sea.

"Arthur?" Raymond was stunned for a moment, then fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Su Chen did not ask any further questions and waited patiently for him to think.

But Su Chen's words confused Chen Fei. From what his boss said, it seemed that Arthur was not a good person.

But in the few times he had met him, Arthur gave him the impression of being quite decent.

Fade Chen looked at Raymond, wanting to hear what he thought.

After a minute or two, Raymond finally spoke: "Raymond gives me the feeling of an eagle. When he is flying in the sky, you can't tell whether he is good or bad, but no one knows that he has already started looking for prey!"

Su Chen couldn't help but look at Raymond again when he heard this. This seemingly rough man actually had a clear mind like a mirror.

"I didn't expect you to see it so clearly." Raymond's words could be said to perfectly fit his own judgment of Arthur.

Chen Fei, who was standing by, also fell into deep thought after hearing the conversation between the two. He carefully reflected on himself in his mind and tried not to let his subconscious mind affect his thinking and judgment.

Su Chen thought about the purpose of Arthur asking him to come to New York and some information he got from chatting with John, and knew that he might be the prey in the eyes of Arthur or even the Morgan family.

You must know that with the rapid rise of China in recent years, it has now firmly established itself as the world's second largest economic system. In addition, the various financial crises and debts within the Bald Eagle have also made the top chaebols look to the East.

Everyone knows that the East is the place where one can make the most money right now, but unfortunately their influence cannot reach in, and those tentacles that had been extended in before have all been cleared out.

Naturally, they came up with the idea of ​​​​an investment agent, and Su Chen's identity became a hot commodity in their eyes. It was a pity that Arthur's methods were still too superficial, and he couldn't even use the beauty trap effectively.

After thinking things through, Su Chen made a decision in his heart and planned to return to his country in the next two days. Not only was it boring to stay here, but he also had to be on guard against this and that, which was a bit tiring!

"System~" Su Chen called softly in his heart.

It’s already April, and the system’s blind boxes have been updated, but I don’t know what surprises there will be this time.

"Uh~" When Su Chen saw the system blind box, he was a little confused. The price column was completely blank.

"Do I have to fill it out myself?" Su Chen muttered to himself and tried to fill in a number 1!
The next second, the system popped up a confirmation message, and Su Chen quickly rejected it.

It was just as Su Chen thought. After asking the system, he understood the reason. The emotional system launched this mode specially for Su Chen because today was April Fool's Day, and it was only this time.

After pondering for a moment, Su Chen directly entered one hundred million and clicked confirm.

The purchased blind box flashed a few times in the system space. Su Chen thought it would open like fireworks like before, but in the end there was no special effect at all. The blind box opened directly and the things obtained were sent directly to the warehouse.

The original sense of anticipation was directly reduced by half due to the torture.

"Huh?" When Su Chen saw the things in the warehouse, he stood up immediately.

He was still mumbling that he had made a lot of money this time.

"Boss, what's wrong?" Raymond and Fade Chen quickly stood up and asked.

"Hahaha~ It's okay, I just thought of some happy things." There was a smile on Su Chen's face without hiding the slightest bit. He waved his hand to signal the two of them not to be nervous, and then he sat back.

Just from Su Chen's slightly trembling legs and the smile on his face, it was enough to show how uneasy Su Chen was at this moment.

Just now, Su Chen opened an island from the blind box, a small island with an area of ​​60 square kilometers. Its location is a bit unique. It is located in Venezuela, South America, which is known as the country with the largest oil reserves in the world.

This island is 600 nautical miles away from the coastline of Venezuela. There are basically no people on the island. It can be said to be a deserted island. Only occasionally some curious tourists will go there to take a look.

The most important thing is that the data provided by the system shows that the oil resources on this island are very rich, and even there are large oil reserves in the sea near the island, with a total of 50 million tons of crude oil.

Just thinking about the huge amount of oil reserves, Su Chen's legs trembled even more violently.

Raymond and Fade Chen looked at each other and both noticed that Su Chen was different, but they both tacitly did not ask. If Su Chen wanted to let them know, he would definitely tell them.

Soon Su Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart, his feet returned to normal, and the smile on his face faded a lot.

"Raymond, you know." Su Chen was just about to ask Raymond about his familiarity with Venezuela when the phone in his pocket rang.

I saw the caller was Arthur.

"It's over in just two hours?" Su Chen muttered softly and then answered the phone.

Sure enough, Arthur called to ask about his whereabouts, saying that the party here had come to a temporary end and asked him if he would return to Manhattan.

Su Chen must go back to Manhattan. What's the point of staying in Long Island? Besides, he still has to figure out the island that he opened from his blind box. He doesn't have the time to intrigue with Arthur and others.

After knowing the approximate location of Su Chen and the others, which was a bit far from their beachfront villa, he left a message asking them to stay where they were and hung up the phone.

After waiting for less than five minutes, Su Chen saw a helicopter flying towards them and stopped steadily not far from them.

After Su Chen got on the helicopter, he found that in addition to Arthur, John and Abdul were also on the plane.

After saying hello, Su Chen put on the headset and closed his eyes to look at the information in the system warehouse.

Arthur looked at Su Chen who was resting with his eyes closed, a hint of thought flashed in his eyes, while John and Abdullah beside him looked at Su Chen with smiles on their faces, and no one knew what the two were thinking.
