Good luck in the city

Chapter 192 Marriage Proposal! (fourth more)
Seeing Zhao Anbang's puzzled look, Li Huamao snorted coldly in his heart, "It's quite a fake."

He didn't bother to show off, so he went straight to the point and said, "To tell you the truth, your Zhao family bought the Junlong Building at a price of 21 billion yuan. This low price has already made many companies jealous! They rejected your order for nothing more than I just want to make things difficult for you!"

"What? You said our Zhao family bought the Junlong Building for 21 billion yuan?" Zhao Anbang was confused by what he said.

"Uncle Zhao, don't pretend. Your Zhao family is determined to revive the glory of the past, and you are not willing to shrink back to Beihe. That's why you let Zhao Yaxin secretly form a company. It seems that it has nothing to do with the Zhao family's industry, but it uses Junlong Building was bought at a price of 21 billion yuan!"

Hearing this, Zhao Anbang finally understood.

What Li Huamao meant was that Zhao Yaxin started a company for the Zhao family and bought Junlong Building.

But in fact, the Junlong Building has nothing to do with the Zhao family, and he, as the head of the family, doesn't know about it.

He said seriously, "Mr. Li, I think you have misunderstood. My Zhao family has nothing to do with Junlong Building. As for why Yaxin came forward to buy Junlong Building, I really don't know, although she is very talented in business. , but I don't believe that she has so much money to buy Junlong Building by herself, she must be the negotiator of some company."

Hearing what Zhao Anbang said, Li Huamao was sure that the Zhao family would not admit to secretly buying Junlong Building if they were killed.

He believed that the Zhao family was still afraid of the consequences of that incident, so they did not dare to blatantly expand the family power so far.

In the Zhao family back then, because of the huge family wealth, the head of the family at that time was frequently close to some high-level officials.

It's a pity that the one supported by their Zhao family did not ascend to the big position in the end, and was settled by the later successor Qiuhou!
So the Zhao family has gradually fallen from the top ten families in China to what it is now.

Even though he had already retreated to Beihe to do some small business, he was still careful not to show off too much.

If the people above know that the Zhao family has bought Junlong Building, a landmark building in Pengcheng,

Even though the person in power has passed away long ago, the successor chosen by him will inevitably inherit his will, and the Zhao family will probably be suppressed again!
Every step of the Zhao family is like walking on thin ice, unless they can climb onto the powerful thigh.

Otherwise, they absolutely dare not reveal their intention to expand their business territory too early.

It was because of this that Li Huamao believed that the Junlong Building was bought by the Zhao family behind the scenes.

So he didn't believe Zhao Anbang's words at all, and just smiled lightly: "Uncle Zhao, you don't have to deny it, the purpose of my coming today is to hope that the Zhao family can sell half of the ownership of Junlong Building to our Li family. Jiake can guarantee that your Zhao family’s business expansion will be safe, and the company will also take orders for that batch of medical equipment. I don’t know what the Zhao family’s idea is?”

Hearing that the Li family could keep the Zhao family from expanding, Zhao Anbang was a little moved.

After all, the Li family's headquarters and roots are in Xiangjiang, and the high-level officials in the mainland have to give them some face. Having them come forward to protect them will indeed make the Zhao family gain reliance.

But the Junlong Building is not owned by the Zhao family, so he has no way to exchange this condition with the other party!
He could only helplessly smile and said: "Mr. Li, this Junlong Building really has nothing to do with my Zhao family. Although my Zhao family intends to make friends with the Li family, I can't take out the ownership of the Junlong Building that Mr. Li said. Do you know if it can be replaced by something else?"

Li Huamao rolled his eyes when he heard this, and replaced it with something else?
A thought suddenly flashed in his mind, he touched his nose, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Since the Zhao family is reluctant to hand over the Junlong Building, how about this, I am here to propose marriage to the Zhao family, and hope that your Zhao family can marry Zhao Yaxin to me!"

Zhao Anbang frowned, "Will Yaxin marry you?"

Zhao Yaxin belongs to the Zhao family, but his parents lived a life of idleness and wild cranes, and they didn't manage the family affairs very much.

He is also relatively laissez-faire with Zhao Yaxin, allowing her to live the life she wants.

And Zhao Yaxin is also relatively independent. She went to MIT and entered Huaxia Bank, all of which were her own way.

It can be said that although he is the head of the Zhao family, he has no say in Zhao Yaxin's marriage.

Facing Li Huamao's request at this time, although he was a little moved, he did not rush to agree.

"That's right!"

Zhao Anbang smiled faintly, "I can't decide this matter, but I will discuss it with Yaxin. If we can become in-laws with your Li family, it will be a good thing for our Zhao family."

Li Huamao shook his head. He knew that if he wanted to discuss it with Zhao Yaxin, there was no possibility of it being realized.

Zhao Yaxin must be kidnapped with the order of his parents and the words of the matchmaker, so that she is forced to marry him. This is also his only chance to get Zhao Yaxin!
"You are the Patriarch of the Zhao family, how can you not be the master in this matter?" Li Huamao's face was a little ugly.

Zhao Anbang heard what he meant, and he didn't want to settle the matter directly with Zhao Yaxin's consent.

He laughed and said: "I am the head of the family, but Yaxin is only my niece, and his father is my elder brother. If there is anyone who can decide her marriage, only her father."

"Then Patriarch Zhao invites Zhao Yaxin's father out. I will tell him about this in person. I also hope Patriarch Zhao will consider it for your Zhao family and explain the stakes to Zhao Yaxin's father."

Zhao Anbang stood up, "Okay, I'm going to ask my elder brother to come out, please wait a moment, Mr. Li!"

Zhao Yaxin's father, Zhao Annan, is over 50 years old and indifferent by nature, so he gave up the position of head of the family to his younger brother.

However, his opinion is still very important in deciding family affairs.

Arriving at Zhao's back garden, Zhao Annan was pruning flower branches with scissors.

When Zhao Anbang saw him, he stood up respectfully, "Brother, Li Huamao, the heir of Xiangjiang's Li family, came to our Zhao family today and wanted to discuss something with you."

Zhao Annan didn't stop moving at all, still pruning the flower branches carefully with scissors.

His voice was thick, and the beard on his lips moved, "What's the matter?"

"This Li Huamao seems to have an admiration for Yaxin, and hopes that the Zhao family will betroth Yaxin to him." Zhao Anbang said.

"This matter is entirely up to Yaxin to decide, I will not interfere!"

"That's what I told him too, but it seems that Yaxin doesn't like him, that's why she came to us."

"Then let him go back!"

Zhao Anbang looked a bit embarrassed, "No, this is an opportunity to make friends with the Li family. Our Zhao family has been struggling more and more recently. The government has continued to support foreign companies to enter Beihe, eating away our Zhao family's market share. If this continues, The Zhao family might not have a foothold in Beihe!"

"Then what do you mean?" Zhao Annan put down the scissors, looked at the younger brother of the current Patriarch indifferently, "Let me come forward and persuade Yaxin to marry that Li family?"

"If that's the case, that's naturally the best result."

Zhao Annan smiled and stretched, "As a father, I really can't persuade her. I can refuse him in this matter."

Zhao Anbang's expression turned anxious, "Then what about the Zhao family? Are you just watching the Zhao family decline day by day?"

His tone was a little excited, "If Yaxin can marry Li Huamao, in fact, our Zhao family has surpassed the Li family."

Zhao Annan sighed and shook his head, "I know Yaxin's temperament. No one can persuade her to do things she doesn't want. As for the Zhao family, since someone wants us to sink, why don't we just move into Dashan. It’s good to be a hermit family that doesn’t compete with the world!”

After speaking, he smiled self-deprecatingly.

Hearing what his elder brother said, Zhao Anbang looked as if he hated iron for being weak, "Brother, our Zhao family can't stand the toss anymore. You are used to wandering clouds and wild cranes. You don't know how heavy the burden is on my shoulders. There are currently hundreds of people in the Zhao family, all counting on it." If the current situation is allowed to continue, our Zhao family will go bankrupt within five years! Just this time, a batch of medical equipment produced by us has been returned. This alone is a huge loss. It reached [-] million yuan! Similar things happen one after another, our Zhao family is like a caged beast, if there is no external help to rescue, we can only sit and wait for death!" The more he said, the more excited he became!
"That's the business of you, the Patriarch! When I handed over this burden to you, you were full of confidence, why? Now you know it's difficult?"

Zhao Anbang sighed heavily, "I underestimated the impact of that incident on our Zhao family."

Zhao Annan patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, don't be too discouraged, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, the Zhao family is now in Beihe, it is still the first family after all, don't be too pessimistic about many things, Maybe you look hopeless now, but after tonight, you will suddenly see the light."

"By the way, Yaxin called me a few days ago and said she would come back. How about this, I will take this opportunity to talk to her about it. If she agrees, of course I have nothing to say. If she doesn't agree, I won't talk too much, you know my daughter is very stubborn, otherwise I wouldn't have gone to the United States alone back then."

Zhao Anbang nodded, suddenly remembered the business,

"By the way, that Li Huamao is still waiting for you in the living room, why don't you go and have a look?"

Zhao Annan washed his hands and fiddled with the potted plants.

"The flowers are also trimmed, and it happens to be all right, so I'll go see him."

Immediately, the two walked out of the garden one after the other.
