Chapter 584 Are You in Love?

"Money is something that is easily available to me, and it doesn't mean much, but some things I need cannot be bought with money."

Wang Zining was stunned when he heard this, because Chen Luo said it very directly, almost telling Wang Zining clearly that he valued the strength of the Wang family, not money.

The Wang family can provide other things in exchange, such as resources and power.

"Mr. Chen is really direct..."

Wang Zining sighed helplessly. Chen Luo did not hide his intentions at all, but he made it impossible to refuse.

"Then, let's stop here today. Mr. Wang and those professors should be in a hurry to return to the capital. I also have something to do, so I won't waste your time."

Chen Luo was more direct this time. He stood up and started to see the guests off. He didn't mean to continue talking nonsense.

Wang Zining smiled bitterly, but he didn't pretend to be polite, because Chen Luo guessed it right.

What's more, he now got the longevity pill and was in a hurry to go back and give it to the old man at home as the best New Year's gift.

"Anyway, I still have to thank Mr. Chen.

If this longevity pill is really that magical, I will come to thank you in person."

Chen Luo nodded slightly and walked out of the house first.

When he got outside, Chen Luo had no intention of seeing Wang Zining off. He just said hello to him and drove to the location of Dianzhu.

When Chen Luo rushed back home, Li Yun picked up the phone and was about to call him.

"Where did you go so early in the morning?"

Li Yun looked at Chen Luo suspiciously and asked seriously, "Xiao Luo, are you in love?"

Chen Luo went out early and came back late these days. He would not go home unless she called him every day. His behavior was too suspicious.

Li Yun and Chen Guoming talked privately many times and agreed that Chen Luo might have fallen in love early, otherwise he would not stay out every day.

Chen Luo had a look of tears and laughter on his face, "Mom, you think too much, I don't even know a few girls in my class, who can I date?"

"Why don't I believe it? What do you do every day?"

Li Yun's face was full of suspicion.

"When the teacher left, he told me some things.

Didn't I go to H country before? I didn't have time. Now that I'm back, I have to finish it quickly."

Chen Luo said calmly.

"What did your teacher ask you to do?"

Li Yun's face showed a trace of worry again. Since she heard Chen Luo tell that story, she felt that his teacher was not a normal person.

If Chen Luo was asked to do something illegal, she felt that she had to ask about it.

"Mom, it's just some learning tasks, such as language learning and physical training. Haven't you seen that I'm getting stronger and stronger now? It's the result of daily training."

Chen Luo said here and immediately changed the subject, "Mom, I'm going to make a phone call. Call me when it's time for dinner."

"Wait, call your teacher to see if he is in Pengcheng. If he is, we can go to wish him a happy new year!"

"The teacher went to Europe and probably won't be back in the short term. Don't worry about it."

"Then give me your mobile phone number. If you can't see him, you can always wish him a happy new year over the phone."

"I just called and it didn't work. The teacher doesn't seem to have activated international roaming. Domestic calls can't be answered."

Chen Luo had long guessed that Li Yun would think of wishing him a happy new year over the phone, so he had prepared his words.

When Chen Luo left the last sentence, he pushed open the door of his room and went in, then locked the door.

Li Yun couldn't do anything with Chen Luo, so she had no choice but to go back into the kitchen to make a family reunion dinner.

Chen Luo closed the door of the room and ordered, "Check Gu Qinghuan's current location. Her passport number and ID number are..."

Chen Luo checked Gu Qinghuan's exit record and memorized her ID information.

"There is no exit record since the entry, but Gu Qinghuan herself is not in Germany."

Cain's voice came from the speakers in the room in less than 1 second.

Chen Luo frowned slightly. Why did Gu Qinghuan suddenly leave Germany?

Could it be that something happened to Xue Qingluan again?

If Gu Qinghuan is not in Berlin, then she probably went to another country with another identity or smuggled.

"Where is she now?"

Chen Luo did not waste time and asked Cain directly.

"The Kingdom of Asaran."

Chen Luo was slightly startled. He knew this country.

The Kingdom of Asaran is a relatively strong country in the Middle East. It has been under the dictatorship of a military strongman since the end of World War I. However, the domestic multi-ethnic conflicts are extremely fierce, and civil wars frequently break out, leading to the people's miserable lives.

It was not until fifty years ago that Asaran Suleiman rose to power and announced the establishment of the Kingdom of Asaran, and Asaran became the founding monarch of the kingdom.

After 30 years of fighting, the Suleiman family eliminated all the separatist forces in the country and finally unified the Asaran region, becoming a truly independent kingdom.

Asaran continued to rule the kingdom in the form of a traditional monarchy. The head of the Suleiman family, the king, was the supreme commander of the national armed forces.

Although the Kingdom of Asaran was temporarily unified under Asaran's strong hand and military suppression, the domestic multi-ethnic contradictions and conflicts did not disappear.

For so many years, these forces have been fighting openly and secretly, and bloody conflicts have broken out from time to time, causing headaches for the Suleiman family.

But after the current King Aziz Suleiman came to power, the situation suddenly changed.

It was not because this person was so outstanding, but because a large amount of oil resources were discovered in the Kingdom of Arsalan at that time, and the storage volume was very large.

The confirmed oil reserves are 140 billion barrels, accounting for about 10% of the global reserves, and both storage and production have jumped into the forefront of the world.

This is second only to Saudi Arabia in the Middle East, making the Kingdom of Arsalan the world's fourth largest oil producer and the second largest oil exporter in OPEC.

With so much oil, domestic conflicts quickly shifted to the competition and development of oil resources.

Because everyone knows that oil represents money.

This allowed the Kingdom of Arsalan to develop rapidly, and it has a strong voice and prosperous economic strength in the Middle East.

However, the economy of the Kingdom of Arsalan is overly dependent on oil resources. After more than 20 years of heavy exploitation, oil resources are facing depletion.

The result was that Asaran's national strength gradually declined, the economy continued to decline, and the unemployment rate rose.

In this situation, a series of civil wars broke out due to the competition for oil resources, and the domestic political situation was turbulent and people's livelihood was in decline.
