Chapter 479 The Beautiful Snake Causes Trouble
"Oh? Finally, there's progress?" Ye Nanxiao sat up abruptly from his chair.
"Yes, boss. Elder Su and the others personally took over the entire laboratory, and the researchers were all kicked out." Feng Shiyi crossed her arms and played with a strand of hair that fell to her chest with her left hand.
Ye Nanxiao raised his hand to signal Qiu Wu and Qiu Ye to stop, then stood up and laughed loudly, "Haha! I knew those old guys who only think about playing chess and drinking tea all day would be attracted here! Don't want to work? Soul Masters will die in the experimental research lab!"
Ye Nanxiao's smug laughter echoed throughout the office.
Qiu Tong reached out and tapped Qiu Ye's little head, signaling the latter to stop eating.
Akiha licked the potato chip crumbs from her lips, tilted her head back, and asked, "Boss, what's making you happy?"
Qiu Wu and Qiu Tong were also filled with curiosity; they hadn't seen their boss so happy in a long time.
Ye Nanxiao bent down and patted Qiu Ye's head, saying, "As the boss, I love seeing my employees work overtime, especially when they achieve great results. This project is a secret for now; you'll find out later."
Feng Shiyi interrupted Ye Nanxiao's happy moment at an inopportune time, saying, "Boss, Shangguan Weier is here again. She's already waiting for you in the lounge on the sixth floor. This time, she's very determined to see you. She might not leave until she sees you."
Ye Nanxiao's laughter stopped abruptly, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Since Shangguan Wei'er led the Ordinary Alliance to form an alliance with the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, she voluntarily became a subordinate sect of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, but the internal losses within the sect are considerable.
However, this woman was also very clever. With Ye Nanxiao's help, she firmly grasped the Ordinary Alliance and it even showed signs of growing stronger.
Furthermore, they also sent the exceptional women trained by the Ordinary Alliance to the Aodu Chamber of Commerce to serve as waitresses, free of charge.
He even once brought along a stunningly beautiful woman he had personally trained, intending to offer her to Ye Nanxiao as his secretary.
However, Ye Nanxiao rejected him without hesitation.
This woman appears harmless and stunningly beautiful, but in reality, she is an ambitious woman.
Although they share common interests and are under pressure from the palace, they won't do anything detrimental to Ye Nanxiao. However, Ye Nanxiao understands that Shangguan Weier won't show her true colors until she achieves her goal.
Since taking complete control of the Ordinary Alliance, Shangguan Weier has been making more and more public appearances, secretly attracting the attention of countless powerful families. However, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce has been the one to keep these troubles at bay.
"What is she up to this time? What trouble has she gotten herself into?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
The powerful families of Mingdu have accumulated considerable wealth and influence, and even the behemoth that is the Aodu Chamber of Commerce is not yet a match for these families united.
Especially since it involves countless chains of interests.
"Who else could it be but the Xi Shui Alliance and the aristocratic families?" Feng Shiyi's tone was filled with murderous intent.
"Yan Feng? Wasn't that guy played terribly by Shangguan Wei'er?" Ye Nanxiao brushed his left hand across his cheek, checking the disguise on his face.
Feng Shiyi stepped aside to make way for the doorway and said, "Let's go, we can talk as we walk. This time it's not Yan Feng."
Ye Nanxiao nodded and said to the three Qiu Wu sisters, "You should rest today."
The three sisters bowed slightly to Ye Nanxiao, then left the office and returned to their own floor.
Hurry up and catch up with Feng Shiyi, Ye Nanxiao pondered how to put Shangguan Weier in her place this time.
People who cause trouble are annoying, but beautiful snakes who can cause trouble are even more annoying.
"This time, Shangguan Weier caught the eye of the current head of the Wen family at a gathering held by the Wen family. Coincidentally, Nangong Wan was also present at the time," Feng Shiyi explained the cause of the matter simply.
"The Wen family, I know them. They got on Xu Tianran's fast ship, but the highest position in the Wen family is only in one of the six ministries. Can they make Shangguan Wei'er afraid? This woman isn't even afraid of He Xun in the Ministry of Justice." Ye Nanxiao had an impression of the so-called Wen family. Wen Ziyi was a member of the Wen family in his talent list, or rather, he used to be.
"Once on the ship, that's where the problem lies. After returning, the Wen family head directly asked Xu Tianran to take Shangguan Weier as a concubine. Xu Tianran neither agreed nor refused." Feng Shiyi also felt that this was a very troublesome matter.
"That would be really troublesome." Ye Nanxiao frowned.
Xu Tianran is involved. If this isn't handled properly, who knows who Shangguan Weier, that beautiful snake, will bite with her fangs.
They quickly reached the sixth floor and arrived at the reception room.
Feng Shiyi pushed open the door to the reception room with such force that the heavy door slammed against the wall with a dull thud.
Inside the reception room, Lan Yuning was sitting on the sofa, looking at Shangguan Weier sitting opposite her with a displeased expression.
The door opened, and Shangguan Wei'er's gaze immediately fell on Feng Shiyi's back.
Upon seeing Ye Nanxiao's arrival, Shangguan Weier gracefully rose and bowed in greeting.
The form-fitting long dress perfectly showcased her figure.
Ye Nanxiao walked to the main seat, crossed his legs, and asked, "Tell me, what have you set your sights on this time, and how many methods have you used?"
Shangguan Wei'er smiled slightly and said, "Boss, showing off a woman's advantages can't be considered a tactic. This time it was just an accident, and the follow-up was not handled in time."
"This guy set his sights on several recently fallen noble families, wanting to take those fallen young ladies under his wing and groom them. He wasn't discreet enough, and the Wen family discovered him. In the end, he had to use a honey trap to escape," Lan Yuning said through gritted teeth.
"Don't you have enough girls under your command?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Throughout the entire Ming capital, almost everyone whose appearance and figure met the standards of the Ordinary Alliance was recruited by Shangguan Weier through various means, including nobles and even aristocratic families.
"Oh dear, those girls were too eager for revenge. I failed to guide them in time, and the Wen family stepped on their coattails. It's like a farm girl who's out working being targeted by a rich man. If you don't take a hoe to beat the dog, how can you escape in time?" Shangguan Wei'er covered her mouth and chuckled, looking relaxed, as if she wasn't the one who caused the trouble.
Ye Nanxiao impatiently waved his hand to interrupt Shangguan Weier's performance. The more she acted, the more she knew how big a mistake she had made.
"Can't the people from the Ministry of Rites help you?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Shangguan Wei'er managed to establish a connection with the Ministry of Rites by sending a large number of beautiful women into the palace.
"Old Master Chen Qi was unable to speak before His Majesty this time, and the children in the harem also cannot see His Majesty." Shangguan Wei'er sighed slightly. "His Majesty is an outstanding man with a firm demeanor, just like a boss, and he will not be hindered by beauty in the slightest."
"Alright, this time the Ordinary Alliance's resources will be deducted by 40%, you'll have to bear that yourself, and you can't interfere with what happens afterward." Ye Nanxiao completely ignored Shangguan Weier's coquettish attempts to gain sympathy.
Upon hearing that 40% of the resources would be deducted, Shangguan Weier trembled, her red lips shaking slightly. She looked up as if to say something, but after feeling Ye Nanxiao's sharp gaze, she lowered her head and bowed slightly, saying, "Thank you, boss!"
Ye Nanxiao got up and left, leaving behind the words, "This is the last time. I know you have ambition, and I don't mind that you have ambition, but if your ambition gets in my way, the girls under your command should prepare to wear headscarves and guard your grave."
As soon as she finished speaking, three chilling killing intents locked onto Shangguan Wei'er.
The chilling killing intent, like a sharp knife scraping bone, ravaged Shangguan Wei'er relentlessly, even though she possessed considerable hidden cultivation.

"Wei'er understands!" Shangguan Wei'er immediately left the sofa and knelt down in the direction Ye Nanxiao had left to beg for forgiveness.
Feng Shiyi followed Ye Nanxiao away. Lan Yuning coldly stared at Shangguan Weier for a while before letting the latter get up and begin to deal with the mess.
"Boss, why not just merge the Ordinary Alliance into the Aodu Chamber of Commerce? Why only order rectification?" Feng Shiyi asked, somewhat puzzled.
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly. "Give me the Wen family's information later. Also, please help me prepare something. I remember the Wen family has a cooperative project with the Chamber of Commerce."
Feng Shiyi shook her head and said, "Boss, it's better if you don't show up at this time. Ju Zi reminded you."
"It's just that Ye Nanxiao isn't showing up. Xiao Nanye, that street hustler, is a master of escape," Ye Nanxiao said.
The reasons behind anything that Xu Tianran is considering must be quite complex.
Ye Nanxiao remembered that when they were in the dungeon, Wen Ziyi was leisurely playing chess, showing no sign of being about to be executed by Xu Tianran.
Xu Tianran's return to the palace was a forbidden event, yet Wen Ziyi, as the Second Prince's man, is still alive and well.
According to intelligence gathered by the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, the Wen family is completely subservient to Xu Tianran. Since Xu Tianran has secured the Wen family's loyalty, the fact that he still retains his former mortal enemy indicates that he has not yet achieved his goal with the Wen family.
If Ye Nanxiao wants Wen Ziyi's loyalty, he will need to visit the Wen family in the future to find out the truth.
It's just that this matter has been brought forward.
Ye Nanxiao could be absent, but the street hustler Xiao Nanye, with his unethical and uncouth persona, would not be associated with Ye Nanxiao in the short term.
It's a shame that Xiao Nanye has to step in again for the sake of future outstanding employees.
Putting aside the headache of Shangguan Weier, Ye Nanxiao was still looking forward to the research results of the old guys in the research lab.
After passing through layers of security procedures, Ye Nanxiao led Feng Shiyi to the research lab.
The laboratory was unusually large and had many twists and turns.
In the most advanced main research lab, there wasn't a single researcher in sight, only a group of old men huddled around the central control screen, constantly arguing.
Ye Nanxiao could even see several old men arguing heatedly, their faces red and their spittle flying.
"I told you, this number is wrong! It should be reduced by half!"
"Bah! You old fool! You're my defeated opponent! What right do you have to order me around!"
"Get out of my way, all of you! I must be the one to host this project! No one else will do it!"
"You fucking bastard, take this punch!"
Ye Nanxiao's gaze was too high; through the protective glass, he saw a suit of armor floating inside the research column.
"Stop arguing, someone tell me, what stage is the core array connection project for the battle armor at right now?"
Ye Nanxiao clapped his hands, interrupting the argument of the group of old men.
Then Feng Shiyi saw a group of old men staring with hungry eyes, their gazes fixed on their boss.
Feng Shiyi raised her right eyebrow and quickly took several steps back, widening the distance between herself and Ye Nanxiao, letting Ye Nanxiao be overwhelmed by a group of old men.
