I have ten trillion licking dog gold

"Hard."

Princess Qing is not on a paid leave; she still needs to do work. For example, if someone impulsively decides to establish a special education fund at their alma mater, she will need to handle it.

"Where are you going? I'll take you."

In fact, Jiang Chen's composure today can largely be attributed to Fang Qing.

Stunned.

Having grown up watching his childhood sweetheart, who was a "two-faced" person, he inevitably learned from her passively.

A master is always a master.

Boss Jiang is usually unsmiling and enigmatic in front of others, but he pales in comparison next to Fang Qing.

This is not.

The sweat on his forehead hadn't completely dried yet, but the other person was already unharmed.

"No need, I'll just take a walk and get some exercise."

With his mind preoccupied with thoughts of the "children," Jiang Chen felt he needed to be alone to calm down, so he declined Qingmei's offer of companionship.

Humans are indeed amazing creatures.

Even though your brain is located on your neck, you can't control what it thinks.

He kept telling himself to forget the "conversation" between Fei Jie's husband and Qing Mei, but the more he suppressed it, the more it rebounded. His mind had completely lost control, like a computer infected with a virus. He even involuntarily began to calculate whether the offspring of the two of them would be a boy or a girl.

"Row."

Fang Qing didn't insist and got into the car.

Jiang Chen stood to the side, watching the Maserati fall off the shoulder and drive away along the bluestone road.

How can you be so carefree?
On the other hand, the object on someone's neck has already led to the conclusion.

Ok.

It is also 99%.

It's 99% likely to be a girl.

Don't ask why.

He didn't know why either.

This is the result his brain gave him.

It's good that she's a girl.

He doesn't hold feudalistic ideas of favoring sons over daughters.

The reason why other families are unwilling to have daughters is largely because they worry that their daughters will encounter scumbags and be bullied in the future.

But such worries simply did not exist for him.

Who is Qing Gege?
With a mother like that, her daughter will only ever bully men.

Blanch!
Jiang Chen's eyelids twitched, and he couldn't help but slap his head.

Don't do anything reckless!

The Maserati had already driven out of the antique-style long street. Jiang Chen turned around and walked in the opposite direction. On a whim, he strolled to the bus stop, squeezed among a few elderly men and women, and boarded the long-unseen No. 2 bus.

During his three years at Shacheng Middle School, he mostly rode a bicycle in his first and second years. In his third year, he switched to taking the bus, specifically the No. 2 bus that covers major areas inside and outside the city.

The most convenient and cheapest way to understand a city is by taking the leisurely public transportation. As times change rapidly, high-speed rail, light rail and other advanced public transportation can easily outclass buses, but buses have never been phased out.

People sometimes...

We need to slow down.

Only through the windows of a bus can the city's true face be vividly and completely presented, rather than a fleeting, blurry glimpse.

For one yuan, you can ride from the starting station to the terminal station, a journey of more than two hours. This is a way for many elderly people to enjoy their later years. Oh, now buses are equipped with air conditioning, and the fare has increased to two yuan.

In the past, buses were crowded and people had to queue. Now, they are much more comfortable. After Mr. Jiang got on the bus, there were seats everywhere, unlike before when he had to fight for them.

Ok.

They don't shake it much anymore.

After switching to new energy vehicles, the noise level has decreased significantly. Unlike before, when the doors and engine would creak and groan every time the car arrived at a station and started up.

For seven or eight stops, the person quietly gazed out the window, finally escaping the vortex of "children".

"We are about to arrive at Shincheonji Station. Passengers who wish to disembark, please wait at the doors."

Bus No. 2 stopped.

Jiang Chen got off the bus, the door closed, without lingering or saying goodbye. The No. 2 bus, carrying the other passengers, continued to the next stop, day after day, year after year.

The large screen displays investment advertisements, showcasing a full range of amenities including cinemas, bars, and KTVs. The comprehensive commercial district that has sprung up before us silently exemplifies the vicissitudes of life.

About ten years ago, this place was a remote and impoverished rural area, a desolate wasteland where weeds could grow up to half a person's height.

Geely.

Although the name exudes a nouveau riche vulgarity, there is no denying that it has an overwhelming sense of sophistication.

The location is easy to find; it's right downstairs from the cinema, with a department store on the second floor and a children's playground next door.

Could this be the legendary "great hermit living in seclusion in the city"?

Jiang Chen wandered around for two or three minutes and easily found the location. However, it was only when he entered the elevator that he discovered the secret behind it.

You can press any button on the supermarket on the second floor and the movie theater on the fourth floor, but you can't press any buttons on the third floor; you need to swipe a card.

interesting.

With no other option, Jiang Chen had to rack his brains. There's always a way to overcome difficulties. He had a sudden inspiration and came up with a plan. He exited the elevator and took the emergency exit, successfully climbing to the third floor.

"Squeak."

The moment I opened the door, a rich fragrance wafted out. It was a signature scent, just like the aroma that hotels always have.

He came in through the emergency exit; apart from the police officers, he was probably the first one there.

It was early morning, around 10 a.m., and none of the barbershops in the business district were open yet, let alone places like this that only open at night. The handsome guy who was cleaning and preparing the place at the entrance was stunned for a moment when he saw someone swaggering in, and then immediately came over.

"Sorry, we are not open for business at the moment."

Of course I know they're not open for business.

I won't be coming when it's open.

Jiang Chen said, "I'm looking for your CEO, Mr. Fu."

The cleaning staff are all comparable to male models, which shows the high level of this place.

The tall, fair-skinned, and young handsome man was taken aback again, and then tentatively asked, "President Fu Zili?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

The handsome man looked him up and down, then said, "Wait a moment."

A few minutes later, Fu Zili hurriedly came out and asked in bewilderment, "How did you get up here?"

Why isn't the emergency exit locked?

"..."

Fu Zili chuckled, then jokingly replied, "Nothing's happening during the day anyway."

He beckoned Jiang Chen inside.

Ambilight.

Magnificent.

Obsidian floor tiles are like mirrors, reflecting people's images clearly.

Jiang Chen remained calm and composed.

It used to be difficult for the sea.

Compared to Lan Peizhi's Qinyuan, other similar venues inevitably pale in comparison.

Fu Zili understood, of course, and without making a fool of himself by introducing Jiang Chen further, he led Jiang Chen into his office.

"Tea?"

Jiang Chen shook his head and sat down on the sofa.

Fu Zili didn't stand on ceremony either.

The office isn't big, maybe forty or fifty square meters at most. There's a break room inside, which is probably where people sleep occasionally.

"I'm planning to hold a pre-wedding party for Junzi here, what do you think?"

Fu Zili sat down on the sofa.

"Here? Are you sure?"

“This is a legitimate business, but it will be closed on that day.”

"Wouldn't that be a huge loss?"

Fu Zili smiled wryly, "Didn't I say I'd give him all the support he needed?"

"Will the other partners agree?"

Most of these establishments are not solely owned by one entity; they are almost always partnerships. As the saying goes, many hands make light work. If any trouble arises, having multiple partners allows for better discussion and resolution.

"You're underestimating me too much. I still have some face."

Jiang Chen nodded. "Anyway, I'm just benefiting from this, so I have no objection." Fu Zili smiled and got back to the main topic.

"Zu Hui has already gone inside."

"Where to enter?"

"Didn't you say it was the hospital where Junzi's wife works?"

Fu Zili is indeed very efficient; no wonder he was able to rise from a delinquent youth to actually get someone into a mental hospital.

"But at most, maybe only fifteen days. Someone will try to bail him out."

Taxi Hui is also a big shot in Shacheng. Slurping rice noodles is something that can't be brought to the table. If an ordinary person reported it, nothing would happen. They would probably just go through the motions at the police station.

Fu Zili had irrefutable evidence to report the crime, so there was no choice but to follow the rules. However, Fu Zili must have been under considerable pressure.

Jiang Chen nodded, seemingly not taking it to heart at all.

What conflict exists between Greenland Group and the Fang family?

Fu Zili couldn't help but ask.

"There's no conflict. It's my cousin."

"Who?"

"Zhang Zhongquan, do you still remember him?"

Fu Zili pondered, "I have a vague recollection of it."

"He bought an apartment in Greenland Phase II."

Upon hearing this, Fu Zili instantly understood.

The fact that Greenland Phase II project was abandoned is almost a household name in Shacheng.

"But what does this have to do with the Fang family?"

"He asked Fang Qing to help him with the lawsuit."

Fu Zili finally understood.

It's not a big deal if the project is abandoned, and it's not a big deal if ordinary homeowners suffer a bit, but if they run into Uncle Jiang Chen, then they're in for a bit of bad luck.

Actually, this isn't fatal.

Jiang Chen's cousin didn't have much of a relationship with Jiang Chen; he just offended the Fang family.

That's like provoking the gods, or lighting a lamp in an outhouse.

Sure enough, if you walk the dark road too often, you're bound to encounter a ghost.

Fu Zili suddenly had a realization that "good and evil are rewarded accordingly".

Could this be why so many big shots eventually turned to Buddhism?
"Greenland's style of doing things is indeed somewhat arrogant. Several of the properties they developed have quality problems, but because of their strong connections, not only has no one investigated them, but things have gone smoothly."

Fu Zili's words are credible; he certainly knows more inside information than the average person.

After hesitating for a moment, he added, "Greenland is one of the top ten companies in Shacheng and has good relationships with the top two leaders."

This is a straightforward statement.

No wonder they act so recklessly.

So, with such an umbrella protecting them, they could be considered fearless in the Sand City.

Zhang Zhongquan is just bragging.

Greenland Group is truly a place where dragons can take flight and tigers can lie low!

After giving the reminder, Fu Zili took a special look at Jiang Chen's expression.

As a result, watching it was a complete waste of time.

There was not the slightest fluctuation.

He looked back.

It was somewhat expected.

Although we've been childhood friends, the games we play now are on completely different levels.

Have you ever worked in the construction industry?

Jiang Chen suddenly asked, seemingly out of nowhere.

Fu Zili, not understanding, nodded instinctively, "I used to do demolition and earthwork."

If someone in the underworld has never been involved in real estate, there's only one reason.

Not big enough.

The real estate market used to be like a fat cow, attracting all sorts of people who wanted to squeeze in and get a taste.

"If we hand over the second phase of Greenland Group to you, are you confident in handling the aftermath?"

Fu Zili was startled and turned his head to look, only to find the other person smiling at him.

"Stop kidding me..."

"Lack of confidence?"

Fu Zili looked blank. "Are you serious?"

"Uncle Fang and Aunt Pan have always been kind to others and have never argued with anyone, but now they've been vandalized with paint because of my relatives. I have to take action about this."

Jiang Chen's voice was calm, but to Fu Zili, every word was like thunder.

Even though Fu Zili had a premonition after learning only part of the story from Zu Hui, a premonition and the confirmation he heard with his own ears are completely different concepts.

Jiang Chen is no longer the Jiang Chen he once was.

The general public may treat oaths as nothing, but those who reach a certain level must be responsible for their words.

Fu Zili was in turmoil, but remained silent.

"I have already instructed my legal team to contact the owners of Greenland Phase II and file a wide-ranging lawsuit against Greenland for its breach of contract. If Greenland pleads guilty and admits its wrongdoing..."

As Jiang Chen spoke, he suddenly shook his head, "If I had such strong connections, I definitely wouldn't feel ashamed."

"Won't there be some..."

Fu Zili hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

For Jiang Chen today, Greenland Group may be insignificant, but as the saying goes, "pulling up a radish brings up mud," and he has already made it very clear that if he were to touch Greenland Group, he would have to consider the powerful backers behind it.

and so.

Is this making a mountain out of a molehill?

"It all depends on whether the court can deliver a fair verdict."

"Dong dong dong..."

Fu Zili's heart began to race. He keenly realized that the most important opportunity of his life might be about to unfold before him.

"I have confidence."

He took a deep breath and said firmly and forcefully.

"What are you confident about?"

"If I were to take over the second phase of Greenland, I would definitely be able to complete the construction and deliver it to the owners with high quality and quantity."

Fu Zili's ability to rise through the ranks is due to his unwavering determination to seize every opportunity.

not to mention.

There was absolutely no risk this time.

Jiang Chen didn't let him directly participate in this epic battle, but only let him take the cake after the winner was decided.

When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven.

at last.

He finally received his blessing.

"Okay, then it's settled."

Jiang Chen nodded.

Fu Zili felt a surge of heat throughout his body. He suppressed his rapid heartbeat and surging emotions, silently clenching his hands. He hadn't experienced such intense emotional fluctuations in a long time.

"It still depends on the court's decision, doesn't it?"

"What outcome do you hope for?"

Jiang Chen asked with a smile.

Fu Zili grinned, without any pretense or affectation, and said honestly and frankly, "I hope the court is not fair."

He paused, then added, "Most of the time, it doesn't."

"Your thinking is a bit selfish."

Fu Zili remained silent for a moment, then corrected him, "Yes, the court has justice, but it is not fair."

Jiang Chen smiled and nodded.

"That makes sense."

Fu Zili seemed to hear the rush of blood in his veins. Sitting in his office, his eyes began to conjure up images of Shacheng, a place renowned as a land of plenty, a blessed land, and untouched by major natural disasters, now experiencing a cataclysmic collapse. (End of Chapter)
