Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 187 Is Seven Billion Really a Lot?



Shanghai, China, Vice Mayor Tang's home.

"Ha-ha, Lao Ye, how come you and your wife have time to come over!" Seeing Mr. and Mrs. Ye Zhenglin, Tang's father asked warmly.

"Tang, I won't beat around the bush with you." Ye Zhenglin sat down and went straight to the point, "Post-heaven is our thirtieth wedding anniversary, and I want to have a banquet to celebrate. You must come!"

"Thirty years? That's a pearl wedding!" Tang's father laughed, "We should celebrate! Rest assured, we will definitely come!"

"Just you two coming is not enough!" Ye Zhenglin smiled, "You have to bring your daughter too!"

Tang's father nodded knowingly and smiled. A few seconds later, he couldn't help but complain, "That girl, she hasn't come to see us in over half a month!"

"She must be busy!" Ye Zhenglin spoke up for his "future daughter-in-law," "Speaking of which, Feiyan is really capable. At such a young age, she has managed to build up the Ling Yan Group so well, much better than our three worthless ones."

"What did she build up?" Tang's father shook his head, "This Ling Yan Group was established with the face of Eric, the young master. What does it have to do with Feiyan?"

"Regardless, Feiyan is now managing the Ling Yan Group, which is enough to prove her ability."

Tang's father nodded slightly, promising, "Lao Ye, rest assured, our family of three will definitely be there for post-heaven!"

"If possible, could you help me invite Eric, the young master of the Medicine King Sect?"

"I'll try..."

Bentley Mulliner728, not often used, so the true user of this tens of millions-level luxury car reserved for the E country royal family is Tang Feiyan. The luxury and extravagance of this car were deeply experienced by Tang Feiyan. Every time she flaunted it, it attracted everyone's attention, even screams of excitement. Even the employees of Ling Yan Group were stunned and admired by the Vice President's high-level ride, filling them with confidence in the future of their new group!

This made Tang Feiyan even more impressed by what Skidmore had said before—that this car was really ordinary and did not match the owner's status... The owner's vehicle should be unique... She contacted Bentley to have them create the most luxurious and comfortable custom car for the owner...

Therefore, on the way to the Ye family estate, Tang Feiyan smiled and asked Skidmore, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, "When will the custom-made, unique, super luxurious car you're spending over 30 million on for Eric be ready?"

Skidmore carefully observed Eric and Tang Feiyan's expressions and found that Eric was calm, while Tang Feiyan was curious. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the owner and mistress were not unhappy with the speed of the car's construction. So he said, "Because the vehicle that can match the owner's noble status is all hand-polished, it takes a long time, and it should be shipped to China with other transportation in about eight or nine months!"

When they heard the phrase "other transportation," Eric and the others were surprised. Tang Feiyan even asked, "Isn't one car enough... Did you also customize a car for Ailing and me?"

With a slightly pale face, Skidmore said, "I have neglected my duty. I did not customize a special vehicle for the two mistresses, but I will make up for it immediately..."

With Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan's intelligence, it was natural to see that these vampires only had Eric in their hearts, and their respect for them also stemmed from Eric's love for them. Once they left Eric, these vampires' attitude toward them would not be much better than toward a stranger!

Therefore, they did not have any negative feelings. Tan Ailing even said, "No need, the three of us are enough with one car. Having more would just be a decoration..."

Seeing that Eric did not look unhappy, Skidmore felt relieved and said respectfully, "Yes, mistress." Although he said so, he had already made up his mind to immediately customize several luxurious cars for women's use. Even if these luxury cars ended up being useless decorations, it didn't matter!

"You haven't said what your 'other transportation' refers to?" Tang Feiyan asked eagerly.

"In addition to the car, I also customized a private plane for the master and mistress..."

"A private plane?" Tang Feiyan exclaimed, "Is it a helicopter, a fixed-wing ultralight aircraft, or a powered rotating glider?"

Skidmore felt insulted as if he had been greatly insulted. He snorted a couple of times before saying heavily, "It's an Airbus A380!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

For the aircraft, neither Tang Feiyan nor Tan Ailing knew much about it, and Eric was even less knowledgeable, so when they heard the name of this type of aircraft, they didn't have any unusual expressions.

"I'm afraid it costs tens of millions?" Tang Feiyan asked casually.

Skidmore's face showed an insulted expression again, and he said slowly, "This private plane cost a total of three hundred and eighty million US dollars!"

"So much?" Tang Feiyan and Tan Ailing couldn't help but exclaim together. After looking at each other for a while, they both asked again in disbelief, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"Of course not!" Skidmore said somewhat aggrievedly, "The Airbus A380 is 78 meters long, has a wingspan of 80 meters, a total weight of 583~:u. Under the configuration of three classes, it can carry 555 passengers and fly continuously for 14,800 miles. The noise emitted during takeoff can reach half the noise control standard, making it the most advanced, spacious, and efficient aircraft ever built. The unit price is 295 million dollars..."

"Why did you say it cost three hundred and eighty million US dollars then?" Tang Feiyan was puzzled. If she didn't know that Skidmore had paid for this private plane as a gift to Master Eric, she would probably think he was asking for kickbacks or falsifying accounts!

"Although the A380's cabin is equipped with the most advanced passenger aircraft systems to date, and can even use laptops and make phone calls at will, I still think it's a bit monotonous, so I spent an extra eighty million to have the manufacturer modify the aircraft! It is equipped with the most advanced fiber optic power distribution network, making the selection of movies, video games, and TV shows more flexible and complete. It also has more open space, such as setting the lower deck as a private bedroom, business area, bar, restaurant, cinema, gym, hydro massage pool, and even a beauty salon, casino, amusement park, and parking lot..."

Tan Ailing and Tang Feiyan were stunned. Although they knew that someone who would spend millions on a car would not be constrained when buying an airplane, they could not have imagined that he would be so extravagant! Three hundred and eighty million US dollars, which is almost three billion RMB! This is like building a palace in the sky...

"Will a plane like this really be delivered in eight or nine months?" Tan Ailing expressed doubts.

"Madam is absolutely right! If you start ordering now, it may take three or four years to deliver the finished product! However, fortunately, Emirates Airlines ordered four Airbus A380s three years ago and they are about to be delivered this year..." Skidmore's humble expression flashed a hint of pride, "I have some influence in the UAE, so I asked them to let one out. If it weren't for the need for modification, the finished product might arrive at Pudong International Airport in a month!"

"Are you going to let us fly this plane ourselves when you buy it?"

Tang Feiyan's words made Skidmore feel insulted again. He said, "How could I be so thoughtless! Along with this plane, there are forty crew members, including four pilots, twenty stewardesses trained in various domestic services, one bartender, two chefs, one beautician, one fitness trainer, one masseur, and ten attendants!"

"So many people?" Tang Feiyan exclaimed in amazement.

"In order to prevent outsiders from disturbing the esteemed owner, these personnel are all carefully selected beauties from tens of thousands of blood slaves in country A..."

This sentence immediately angered Tang Feiyan, "Why do you need so many women on the plane?"

Poor Skidmore completely did not understand where Tang Feiyan's anger was coming from, because his arrangement did not stem from anything unclean. In the taste buds of vampires, the blood of virgins is the most delicious, so the number of virgins among the blood slaves can indirectly reflect the status and strength of vampires!

It was precisely because of this inherent cognition that Skidmore, who wanted to please the owner, had organized a "beauty pageant" among the blood slaves! Although the power of the blood slaves was far from that of real vampires, their lifespans were equally long. Even so, Skidmore had only managed to keep less than a hundred beautiful virgin blood slaves in his three hundred years in America.

The reason for having only so few people was twofold: first, these nearly a hundred virgins were enough to provide him with blood food, and second, he was afraid that doing too much would attract the dissatisfaction of the "just" and the jealousy of the "like-minded."

In order to collect enough from country A, Skidmore had conducted a large-scale search in America. Any family with eligible blood slaves who refused to hand them over was completely wiped out...

Although Eric and the others did not know the effort Skidmore had put into this matter, at least Tan Ailing knew a bit about the common sense of vampire society, so she calmed Tang Feiyan's anger and reassured Skidmore with a smile, "Your original intention was good, but the utilization rate of this plane will definitely not be high!"

"Why?" Not only Skidmore, but even Eric was puzzled. With this plane, it would be convenient to go to Cangzhou, Henan, or even Tibet. Traveling to other places would also be much easier, as they could go whenever they wanted without having to chase after flight schedules...
