He took out his phone, opened a spreadsheet, and said, "Of the funds I manage, forty-five percent are invested in stocks and funds, twenty-five percent in corporate bonds, and the remainder in current deposits and treasury bonds. As of now, the account balance is 312.75541 billion yuan, with a wealth growth of 6.154 percent."
Ye Tian said, "Brother Zhang, that's impressive. You've increased it by six percent in such a short time."
Zhang Zhihui replied, "I'm currently investing primarily in companies within the Baozhi Company ecosystem, which has led to a very high success rate."
Ye Tian asked, "Oh, the Baozhi Company ecosystem?"
Zhang Zhihui nodded. "For example, companies that specialize in logistics and distribution for the company, those that handle store renovations, and enterprises that supply packaging and raw materials. Baozhi Company is developing rapidly, and as their partners, these companies naturally become stronger too."
Ye Tian said, "That makes a lot of sense. Come, I'll toast you, Brother Zhang."
After lunch, everyone left the hotel and headed to a scenic spot in the mountains, where there was a hotel with ethnic-style architecture. They would be participating in team-building activities there that evening.
As the vehicles traveled, Ye Tian boarded a large bus. Lin Ziyi, Su Hongyan, and several prominent scientific research experts were also on board.
The road ahead was a winding mountain path with numerous turns. The bus driver drove very cautiously, maintaining a speed of around sixty kilometers per hour, slowing down to thirty or forty at sharp bends.
Ye Tian sat in the front passenger seat next to the driver, occasionally glancing at the road ahead. Suddenly, he noticed a reflection on the road about a hundred meters away. He immediately instructed the driver to slow down, and they eventually stopped the bus about ten meters from the reflective patch.
The driver, a man in his forties, asked, "What's wrong?"
Ye Tian got out of the bus and walked to the reflective area. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the road had been covered with lubricating oil, and just beyond it was a ninety-degree turn. If the bus had driven onto it, the brakes would have been useless. The bus would have inevitably crashed through the guardrail and plunged down the hundreds-of-meters-high cliff.
He narrowed his eyes and stepped forward. With every step he took, the ground vibrated slightly. The lubricating oil on the road detached itself from the surface, coalescing into a thin mist that was then blown down the mountain by the wind.
The stretch of road covered in oil was fifty to sixty meters long, but after Ye Tian walked through it once, all the lubricating oil vanished. The people on the bus watched as a mist suddenly appeared on the road, only to dissipate quickly.
After clearing the road, Ye Tian started walking back. Suddenly, he looked up sharply and saw a high-end drone hovering hundreds of meters in the sky.
He narrowed his eyes, picked up a coin, and flicked his finger. The coin shot into the sky at several times the speed of sound, instantly piercing the drone. The drone lost control and began to fall into the valley.
Just as he was about to return to the bus, he saw a large truck approaching from behind. The truck was moving at high speed and showed no signs of slowing down. Ye Tian narrowed his eyes, and his divine sense instantly took control of the truck driver, forcing him to brake with all his might. With a screech of tires, the truck stopped about thirty meters from the rear of the bus, leaving behind several black skid marks.
Ye Tian quickly walked to the front of the truck, pulled open the driver's door, and found the driver sitting there, dazed.
He then went to the truck's rear door and wrenched it open. Inside sat eight men in black uniforms, their faces pale and their eyes vacant. When Ye Tian had controlled the driver, he had also used his divine sense to influence these men. He patted one of them on the face, causing him to jolt awake, his eyes beginning to move.
Ye Tian asked, "Who sent you, and what was your mission?"
The lubricating oil on the road had been deliberately poured there, and coupled with the drone in the sky, it was clear that someone was orchestrating this.
The man, still in a daze, mumbled, "I don't know. We were paid to do it. Our mission was to cause an accident, send the buses ahead into the valley, and ensure everyone died."
Ye Tian narrowed his eyes and continued to ask, "What organization do you belong to?"
The man replied, "We are assassins from the 'Six Paths Gate'."
"Does your superior know the identity of the instigator?"
The man said, "The higher-ups should know."
Ye Tian took out his phone, took a few photos, and sent them to Ren Ping before calling him.
When the call connected, Ren Ping said angrily, "These people are truly lawless, daring to move against the leader! I will definitely eliminate them!"
