Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1773: Chapter 1414: European Journey, Conclusion (Part 2)

The three giants of the wine industry have grand plans to hold the inaugural wine festival in Haru City. This news first appeared in national media and has now become the hottest topic in both Benzhou and Haru City. The people of Haru are elated, even starting to view Mayor Gordon as a hero. Naturally, the media has to ”follow public opinion.”

Some media outlets have even begun openly praising Mayor Gordon—

”Mayor Gordon, a man who has remained unknown for many years, enduring criticism and even insults from others, yet always stayed dedicated and unregretful. He has wholeheartedly contributed to the development of Haru City, maintaining contact with the three giants of the wine industry day after day, year after year. Finally, his sincerity has moved them, bringing Haru City an unprecedented opportunity. His achievements are worthy of being engraved on the monument of Haru’s history...”

Considering the perspective from the three giants of the wine industry, those media outlets are no longer paying attention to Mayor Gordon’s little scandals. Even the few that wrote most aggressively, have started publishing ”whitewashing” articles, beginning to ”deeply explore” why the respectable Mayor Gordon has been ”baselessly” subjected to ”slander” today.

The final conclusion is that this is just the despicable framing by electoral rivals. Some media outlets have already started naming Berman directly.

Of course, neither Berman nor his butler are aware of these developments.

Because, during this period, they have each been busy with their own matters.

However, the council members who have always watched from the sidelines, observing the developments, do know about these things.

So, when the butler reported the third matter to Berman, he spoke bitterly, ”Of the sixteen council members you had on that list, nine of them didn’t answer their phones, and five explicitly stated they have no time this evening and cannot come! The other two said they have to consider the situation before deciding.”

The butler’s last words directly chilled Berman’s heart, as he sat dejectedly in his chair.

”Did I just... lose like this?” Berman’s face turned as pale as paper, he muttered tremblingly.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Mayor Gordon was accepting numerous media interviews, impassioned as he declared his plans to greatly develop Haru City, aiming to elevate citizens’ welfare to a new level within two years.

In the eyes of the people present, these words no longer seemed to be mere empty talk. Mayor Gordon also received rounds of applause and cheers.

Mayor Gordon smiled, his heart rejoicing, filled with endless emotions.

”In all my years in politics, I have never seen public opinion reverse from defeat to victory in a single day! That Mr. Bai truly is amazing!”

There was more than mere admiration in his heart for Bai Xiaosheng.

Later, with the opportunity presented by the wine festival, Mayor Gordon really led Haru City to rise, becoming a city known throughout the state and even nationwide. Due to his contributions to local employment and economic development, he was re-elected as mayor.

He did not neglect the promise he made to Bai Xiaosheng, earnestly supporting Lai Yin’s team, even establishing a special research fund.

Regarding Berman, after Mayor Gordon stabilized his position, he did not let go of the person who wanted to see him destroyed. Through new measures and strict investigations, he greatly hindered the Berman family’s business. Under the pressure of ruined reputation, Berman was forced to move his family and business out of Haru City...

Of course, those are stories for another time.

In short, within that single day, Haru City truly experienced many events, some of which could be called earth-shattering.

As evening fell and the matters settled, Bai Xiaosheng bid farewell to Lai Yin and the others, planning to leave Haru and return to London, after all, things were busier over there and needed his supervision.

Lai Yin and the whole team saw him off at the airport, reluctant for Bai Xiaosheng to leave.

”I’ll be back,” Bai Xiaosheng quipped with a playful tone, then added with a smile, ”If any of you ever consider visiting Huaxia or developing there, feel free to find me!”

Lai Yin’s team comprised experts in the field of pharmaceutical research, and Bai Xiaosheng especially wanted to bring them to Huaxia.

Also, if the wine festival was successful and gained fame, Bai Xiaosheng thought about having them hold more such events in Zhongjing, Huaxia.

After all, one should not forget their family when good things happen.

Bai Xiaosheng still took Soruns’s private jet and returned to London City that night.

After leaving the airport, Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying were both waiting to welcome him.

”My brother Sheng is amazing; as soon as he steps in, he solves all the troubles over there and even shakes all of Europe. You don’t know, Grace was so excited when she told me about it, tut-tut, I think she’s already fallen for you,” Lin Weiwei teased from the side.

Bai Xiaosheng recalled that when Lai Yin and others saw him off, Grace’s eyes were a bit red, and he couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

”Why don’t you hire another assistant?” Lei Ying also laughed silly.

Bai Xiaosheng cast each of them a sideways glance.

On the way back to his residence, Bai Xiaosheng asked them about the situation while he was away for the past two days.

”Everything went smoothly, no issues whatsoever!” Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but say with eyes shining, ”Brother Sheng, you know Li Haofeng, Zheng Honghu, the reaction of the ten business delegation leaders when they heard we’re signing a contract with the Luo Family with so many favorable conditions for us... it’s incredible! I’ve never seen people like them, as stunned as if they were children, it’s hilarious!”

Lin Weiwei couldn’t stop imitating a few of their reactions to Bai Xiaosheng, very accurately.

Lei Ying couldn’t help but clap his hands in approval, laughing.

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but chuckle too.

”Now, all details regarding the collaboration between the two sides have been finalized, and those people worked excitedly through the nights; it only took less than two days to complete everything!” Lin Weiwei laughed.

”So fast!” Bai Xiaosheng was deeply astonished.
