The betrothal gift is 100,000 yuan, what does it mean to give 200,000

Chapter 421 Tears

"Director Ji doesn't understand our market situation. This price is my bottom price after repeated consideration." Seeing Ji Hai's angry face, the thin man hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I will never let you and Director Jiang down. Even if I have the guts of heaven, I can't cheat money from you two."

"But this price is too outrageous—"

Just as Ji Hai was about to explode, Chen Yuan waved his hand to stop him.

As a worker who earns every penny he works for, Director Ji certainly cares about money. Although he is a company executive, he does not come from a wealthy family and his concept of money is consistent with that of normal people.

This man looked like a monkey and asked for one hundred thousand right away. Of course he couldn't stand it.

Chen Yuan is different.

If the news only cost 10,000, he would not be very interested.

The high price actually reflects the value of the news from the side.

"Give me your card number and I will transfer the money to you." Chen Yuan said calmly to the thin man.

After a while.

The money has arrived.

After answering the phone call, the thin man couldn't help but give Chen Yuan a thumbs up and flatter him.

"Director Jiang is quick and decisive, which I admire."

"Stop wasting time. You've already delayed me for more than twenty minutes." Chen Yuan looked at his watch and said coldly.

"Okay, then listen carefully, this news is not something that ordinary people can know! Something happened to the Jiang family's company, and it was planned by several parties. Anyone with eyes and ears knows about it. This is no secret, but does Director Jiang know why they went to such great lengths?"

Chen Yuan said nothing, just stared at him.

The thin man smiled awkwardly and continued, "If it's just for the market share of a second-tier domestic cosmetics brand, then that may involve interests, but it's nothing. The key point is this piece of land."

As he spoke, he took out his cell phone and clicked on a picture to show them.

On the map, a red line was clearly drawn across the river, and the area encircled was exactly the suburb of Mingzhu City.

Chen Yuan frowned immediately.

"The city is going to build a new planned area for commercial purposes. All the original facilities will be demolished and renovated, including the park, and the residents will be relocated for the new five-year plan of Mingzhu City. These office buildings are located in the center, and a landmark building will be built there in the future, so every inch of land is worth a lot of money!"

The thin man took a deep breath and continued, "Even the brands that united to get rid of Mei Ruxue didn't know about this news. They were also kept in the dark. Only Qi Yingchen was qualified to take over this building. The manager who provided the bridge loan to Jiang's company was Qi Yingchen's nephew."

"No wonder I couldn't find any information about the surname Qi." Ji Hai muttered.

"Think about it, you two. A 10% investment can yield a 100-fold return! Compared to this kind of profit, what does it mean to bring down a cosmetics company?"

The information provided by this man called Xiaomao is indeed valuable.

Chen Yuan and Ji Hai suddenly understood why the conspiracy against Mei Ruxue's company was so meticulous, with one thing linked to another. Even if a god came, he would be powerless to reverse the situation. Moreover, they started planning so early and planted so many commercial spies in the company.

There are so many spies, whether intentional or unintentional.

In short, someone is making this happen intentionally or unintentionally.

"How did you know such valuable news?" Chen Yuan thought for a moment and suddenly asked.

"Director Jiang, this is another price," the thin man smiled brightly, "but rats like us in the ditch naturally have our own ways."

……

ten minutes later.

In the underground parking lot.

The two men sent the driver away, Chen Yuan sat in the driver's seat, took Ji Hai out of the Lis Hotel, and headed straight in an unknown direction.

This meeting and the money can be said to be extremely valuable.

The clouds and mist were directly cleared away for the two of them, revealing the true face of Mount Lu.

Needless to say, Chen Yuan also knew how much Qi Yingchen had paid to get such news. He must have gained some kind of secret.

Otherwise, how could it be possible that others would give up the benefits a hundred times and allow him to block the transaction of the Meiruxue Company Building for the past two years.

"Even under such circumstances, Mr. Qi has been trying to lower the price. He is really too greedy."

"No," Ji Hai shook his head. "Raising the purchase price suddenly will only make people think there is something fishy going on. Besides, Qi Yingchen wants to take over more than just this one place. Maybe his funds are tight, so he is holding on tightly."

"So are we just going to let him bite us like this?" Chen Yuan suddenly turned his head, some emotions flashing in his eyes, "Is there any other possibility?"

Hearing this, Ji Hai was stunned.

He reacted quickly and tried to persuade them.

"Boss Jiang, this is not a trivial matter. Are you trying to snatch food from the tiger's mouth?"

"Qi Yingchen can use tricks, so why can't I? As long as they have the right business qualifications, others can also take over these plots of land. This is fair competition. What can he say?"

"But Qi knows very well that we are here to seize the land for planning purposes."

"He knows it very well, but I don't. I just picked these pieces of land and want to do some small business. Is that not okay?" Chen Yuan looked innocent, but what he said was extremely vicious and sinister business competition tactics.

Others have been planning carefully just for this day.

But he wanted to intervene and ruin all these people's plans.

It is hard to imagine how much someone would hate you.

"I advise you to be cautious," Ji Hai took a deep breath. "First of all, to acquire these plots of land, the funds required are not a small amount. You can't raise this money in a short period of time. It's not easy to find a company with suitable qualifications. Since Qi Yingchen is holding on so tightly, it means he is sure and has already made arrangements... To put it bluntly, he knows about the planned land use, which means he has connections with the higher-ups. This is the most important thing."

"He lowered the price too much and had to please Jiang Ning. I can't let my girlfriend have to look at other people's faces. Besides, such a profitable business is worth paying some price. What do you think?" Chen Yuan suddenly smiled.

Ji Hai looked at his smile, swallowed his saliva, and had a bad feeling in his heart.

Conversation room.

Chen Yuan drove the car to a riverside. It was a gloomy day with a cold wind blowing in their faces. The two got out of the car to breathe in the fresh air.

Ji Hai took out a lighter, lit a cigarette, and puffed it out with the wind.

It looks like it's going to rain.

The air became increasingly humid.

Chen Yuan leaned against the car door and patted the car behind him.

"Is the car handsome?"

"I don't know much about cars, this Porsche?" "Yes, my girlfriend and I pooled our money to buy it for my birthday. Are you jealous?"

In response to his proud speech, Ji Hai shook his shoulders, and even though he was always serious, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

"It's no use being envious, no one will buy it for me."

"So I'm telling you the truth. I don't want to see them being wronged," Chen Yuan said seriously. "I plan to contact the leaders of Jiang's group in Mingzhu City and snatch these plots of land from them."

"That's really not possible, Master." Ji Hai broke out in a cold sweat after saying this. "As the general director of the Northern Region, it is a taboo for you to have too close contact with the person in charge in Mingzhu City. They don't get along with your faction. Besides, you have to repay the favor. If they ask for something in the future, do you agree or not?"

"Are we closely connected? We are just acquaintances," Chen Yuan shrugged. "I heard that at the resolution meeting for my appointment as Northern Director, several leaders of Mingzhu City voted against it and hoped that I would come to this economically prosperous place. I just happened to be a little curious about them."

"Of course they want you to come here. If they can get you here, Mingzhu City is already the location of management elites second only to Kyoto. It will be even more powerful in the future. Maybe in a dozen years, even your father won't have to take you seriously."

"How is that possible?" Chen Yuan was a little unconvinced. "Can I replace my father? He is the only person in the Jiang family who cannot be replaced."

“Although we cannot replace them, we can definitely influence the decision-making of certain groups.”

"What you said is too far-fetched, and I don't intend to take such a big cake alone, or rather, I don't intend to take it at all," Chen Yuan thought for a while and said in a deep voice, "Listen to my idea. I want to do a favor and contact the leaders of Mingzhu City, tell them frankly, and let them find a qualified company to take over these plots of land. I will not have anything to do with the whole process."

"Ah? This is a hundred times the benefit. Do you mean to give it to them and do a favor to a few leaders?"

"Yes, I don't care about the money. I just don't want those who are hostile to me to have an easy life. Why should they do that?"

"If you make such a decision, no matter whether you care about these benefits or not, you must keep it a secret from Secretary Jiang for the rest of your life, otherwise she will feel that you are taking things from one pocket into another. Moreover, you knew about it in advance but didn't tell her, causing the Jiang family to suffer such a big change in vain... Anyway, I advise you not to interfere too much. Let Qi lower the price. Let things be as they are. Just wait and see how they develop."

"No, even if Jiang Ning finds out about this, I will still do this," Chen Yuan's eyes became firm, "I've already thought about it."

at the same time.

The wind by the river is getting louder and louder.

……

Mingzhu City, in the Liu family's compound.

Jiang Ning never thought that one day she would face such a dilemma.

There was someone accompanying her as she walked around the garden. That person was her cousin with whom she had been in contact over the past few years. She had already married and was now living a happy and fulfilling life.

My cousin is not very smart. She speaks very directly and has a cute round face. She was chattering a lot beside us.

Jiang Ning didn't hear a word he said. She was distracted for a long time, and the scene in the living room just now kept turning over and over in her mind.

She originally wanted to talk to her grandparents alone, explain the reason in her name, and then sign a document to repay the borrowed money.

After all, it was family, so she guessed that she would have to suffer some setbacks due to the cold face, but it wouldn't be the case that she couldn't borrow a single cent.

However, after arriving at the Liu family, the subsequent series of developments were beyond her expectations, and she suffered an unprecedented blow.

When she arrived at the Liu family, she had just opened her mouth and said a few words when Jiang Ning's grandfather called the whole family over.

At that time, Jiang Ning was completely stunned.

Then, in front of the whole family, Jiang Ning's grandfather asked her to continue.

Among them was the uncle who had sued Jiang Ruxue, and who was also her father’s younger brother.

She didn't know how she had to speak at that time. It can be said that in just that half a minute, she experienced embarrassment and struggle that she had never experienced in her life.

Borrow money, and borrow money from your enemy.

She knew then that this trip was in vain.

After she finished her story, the entire living room fell into silence.

Some watched coldly, some were indifferent, some sneered, and of course there were also those who turned around and left.

Then, Jiang Ning's grandfather said some irrelevant polite words, and then said that he and Jiang Ning's grandmother were no longer in charge of family affairs, and had no assets, and everything was divided up. If they wanted to borrow money, they needed to ask the opinions of the next family and make a decision together.

After the words were spoken, there was only silence.

The cousin, who was originally a close friend, wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere and said that her family could borrow some money. Unexpectedly, she was pulled back by her uncles as soon as she opened her mouth.

Jiang Ning saw it all...

At that moment, she felt that her dignity was thrown to the ground. No matter what embarrassing things she encountered in life, she would never lose her composure, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, she felt her face turning red.

"Sister, don't worry too much, sister--"

Hearing the voice, Jiang Ning thought Yaoyao was calling her. She turned her head blankly, but saw her cousin's small round face.

"Sister, my husband has good connections with people in the court. Don't worry, I will help you get in touch with them when the time comes. I will definitely help if I can."

"Thank you," Jiang Ning was touched, but when she looked at her cousin, she suddenly felt a fierce emotional attack in her heart. Her nose felt sore, "I... I'm leaving first. I'll contact you later."

"I'll take you there, sis."

"No... no need."

After saying that, Jiang Ning couldn't hold back any longer, and hurriedly left the Liu family's garden in small steps, going out from the back door, and even jogging outside, until she reached the street, where she hailed a taxi.

In the car, she covered her face and bit her lips tightly.

Tears silently flowed down her cheeks, slowly wetting her clothes.

The driver in the car originally wanted to ask her where she was going, but when he saw her lose control of her emotions after getting in the car, he stood there in a daze for a moment, without saying a word for a long time, and stopped on the side of the road for a long time.

In this world, no one can truly support anyone.

Therefore, people pursue the ultimate love and the affection that lasts until death.

Only that kind of love can allow people to truly live in this world with a soul, rather than being a walking corpse, because no matter what happens, they will remember that there is someone behind them and his unreserved love for themselves.

Love can make a withered soul full and ensure that a person will never lose his or her dignity.

this moment.

Jiang Ning understood this truth.

She thought she was smart, but in her current situation, her intelligence was vulnerable.

There is only one person who never lets her feel without dignity and always considers her best in everything.

Jiang Ning suddenly felt very aggrieved. She wanted to call Chen Yuan and beg him in a low voice.

Spend time with yourself.
