Chapter 153 Miss, that's not acceptable
"Ladies, feel free to eat and drink as much as you like. Here at my place, there's plenty for everyone!" Zhang Menglong lay on the sofa on the rooftop, holding a glass of wine worth 120,000, and took a gentle sip.
"Damn, what is this crap, why does it taste so bad?" Zhang Menglong never liked red wine, even the most expensive wines tasted no different from horse piss to him.
"Hong Yi, bring me a case of AD calcium milk, don't open it, I want the four-bottle set, otherwise, it's soulless!" Zhang Menglong nonchalantly set the pricey red wine aside.
"Come on, beauties, why aren't you eating? There's no need to be so reserved at my place!" Zhang Menglong glanced at the two actresses from Qingqiu Country who had just arrived. They sat timidly to one side like children who had done something wrong, their expressions extremely serious, or even, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they seemed ready to meet their doom.
Although Zhang Menglong appeared very welcoming, they hadn't forgotten the true purpose of their visit here; they had been abandoned by their own country and turned into tools for trading national economic stability.
Especially when the two of them ran into each other at the doorstep of Zhang Menglong's house, they found such a situation utterly preposterous. Just what kind of ability did this boy, who was even a few years younger than them, possess to make their entire country bow down?
At this thought, they both felt a collapsing of their worldview. Following this trend, would Qingqiu have to comply if Zhang Menglong wanted any Qingqiu starlet to accompany him?
They truly hated the dirty environment of the entertainment industry, but this was the first time they realized that there was an even more terrifying circle than the entertainment world.
If Zhang Menglong wanted to do something to them tonight, could they really withstand that kind of pressure?
Even if they had the courage to stake everything, would they be willing to disregard the safety of their families? Could they really give up this glitzy world? Clearly, they couldn't.
So, ever since they walked into Zhang Menglong's house, they had been maintaining a low mood.
"You must all be curious why you've been forced to come here," Zhang Menglong seemed to have read their thoughts, and even Lee Ji-eun couldn't help but look at him.
Lee Ji-eun knew that the recent bank incident was related to Zhang Menglong, but they were unclear on the specifics as Weibo, after all, was popular only in Huaxia.
"Actually, it's quite simple. I hold 45% of all the deposits of your country's banks, amounting to probably three to four hundred billion Qingqiu Currency!"
Hearing this number, the three actresses' eyes widened, larger than the other's.
"The reason I'm here is simple, too. Some idiot economists from your country insulted me and it pissed me off, so I decided to come and empty out your banks!"
With just a few sentences, Zhang Menglong displayed his capriciousness and strength.
Just because he was in a bad mood, he was ready to deplete a nation's cash reserves and crash its economy; could he possibly be any more wilful?
"Of course, just with these moves, they wouldn't necessarily be completely afraid of me. The energy companies under my name control one-third of the energy supply to your country. With just one word from me, one-third of Qingqiu Country could face water, electricity, and gas cuts!"
"Oh, right, and your 'good friend' Chaomo Country had prepared several hundred billion Qingqiu Currency to help Qingqiu Country out. Then I cut off all their utilities. I guess there are still many people cursing their Energy Department with unwashed shampoo in their hair!"
Suddenly, Zhang Menglong recalled this incident, almost having forgotten about it had it not come up now.
"Hong Yi, come here!" Zhang Menglong called out to Hong Yi, "Chaomo Country did have the sense to stop in time and they've been quite obedient. Go and notify them, they can resume their utility supply now. And give them a little warning, next time they face something like this, they'd better weigh their options more carefully, otherwise, next time, it won't just be utilities that get cut off."
"Yes, Mr. Zhang, I'll arrange it right away!" Hong Yi went to carry out the orders while the nannies were responsible for serving Zhang Menglong on this side.
By this time, Lee Ji-eun and the other two were somewhat stunned. They might have known about Zhang Menglong using the bank deposits to threaten Qingqiu Country, but the rest of the information was totally unknown to them.
If they hadn't made a mistake, Zhang Menglong had only been in Qingqiu Country for three days, right? In those three days, he hadn't just settled Qingqiu Country; even Chaomo Country had been dealt with!
Suddenly, the three women felt as if Zhang Menglong was not even from the same world as them. This young man could control the fate of their countries at any moment, and compared to his forcefulness, those useless officials were just a bunch of spineless creatures.
This is what a truly powerful man looks like!
"Hehe, sorry, my girlfriend is calling me on video, I'll introduce her to you guys in a bit!" Zhang Menglong's previously unconquerable expression suddenly became as pure as a child's.
"Done with training?"

"Yeah, it exhausted me, my throat's almost hoarse, hurry up, let me take in some fairy aura from my goddess!"
"What do you mean? Is it you, Lu Yiyao, who's become obscure or is it me, Zhang Menglong, not being flirty enough? Now that you have Lee Ji-eun, you don't need me anymore, huh?" Zhang Menglong said.
"Hahaha, I'm just joking," Lu Yiyao couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw Zhang Menglong's jealous look.
"Right, who did you say you wanted to meet at noon?" Zhang Menglong focused the camera on three female stars.
"Ahhh! Lisa, my wife! Ahhhh! I'm seeing her in person! Woo woo woo, I really want to come over!" Lu Yiyao almost bounced up from the other end.
"Yiyi, what are you doing? You're about to break through the floor!" Lu Yiyao's roommates also gathered around.
"Ahhh! Lisa! Ryun-ha!"
"Yiyi! Your Zhang is so impressive, huh? He can even invite these female stars?"
"Hahahaha, don't just talk about inviting them, even if Zhang wants to sleep with them today, I bet the three of them would have to line up!"
"Hahaha, Qianxi, you're such a professional!"
"Who welded the car door shut? I want to get off!"
The small girls' dorm room suddenly turned into a chicken coop.
With the addition of Lu Yiyao's dormitory, the dinner became lively all of a sudden. Despite the long distance, thanks to the privately laid fiber-optic, even this long distance didn't affect the internet speed at all.
Seeing how happy Lu Yiyao was, Zhang Menglong suddenly felt that this trip to Qingqiu Country, aside from teaching a lesson to a bunch of idiots, also brought some nice gains.
Dinner dragged on until after ten o'clock, and darkness fell. Lee Ji-eun and the others were informed that they were to calm Zhang Menglong's mood before he left Qingqiu Country and accompany him in whatever he wanted to do.
So none of the three of them left. Zhang Menglong's house was big enough to accommodate even a few more girl groups.
Having drunk quite a bit, Lee Ji-eun finished washing up and lay on the bed, but for some reason, she couldn't fall asleep. The way Zhang Menglong spoke firmly and disdainfully to Su Zhihe during the day kept playing in her mind.
She actually sat up, biting her lip lightly, as if she had made an important decision.
"Thump thump!" There was a knock on Zhang Menglong's door.
"Who is it?" Zhang Menglong reflected on the novel "Three-Body" in his room, after all, the movie was about to start shooting soon, and he needed to prepare well.
"Click!" The door opened, "Ji-eun, what's up? Poker night and we're short one?"
Lee Ji-eun's face was flush with a blossoming smile, and the silk robe naturally slid down from her fragrant shoulders.
"Damn!" Zhang Menglong stepped back, "Miss, that won't do!"
