CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

But time was of the essence, and Gao Xiaoqin knew that now was not the time to listen to her employees flattering her downstairs.

Without much thought, she led everyone to the door of the house where Brother Gao Qilin was.

"Dong dong dong! Dong dong dong!"

"Excuse me, are you Brother Gao? We're here to talk to you about something!"

Gao Xiaoqin felt very uncomfortable, as it was her first time visiting such a dilapidated residential building.

But in order to win over Gao Qilin, she held back and politely knocked on the door.

"crunch!"

With a muffled thud, a middle-aged man wearing a white t-shirt and holding a palm-leaf fan opened the door.

This man was simply dressed and unassuming; if you didn't know him, you would never associate him with the powerful conglomerate he owned.

The man in 307 smiled and said when he saw Gao Xiaoqin.

"Oh! It's President Gao. I know that your Shanshui Group is cooperating with my brother's Qiangsheng Group."

"However, I'm sorry, I never get involved in the company's affairs."

"If you have any problems, go find my brother. I don't have time to solve them for you!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiaoqin felt a surge of anger.

She knew that Gao Qilin's older brother never cared about the affairs of Qiangsheng Group, but she didn't expect that this guy would be so stubborn.

Even the CEO of Shanshui Group is showing such disrespect!

It seems that if I don't teach him a lesson, he really won't know how many eyes are on Lord Ma's head!

Seeing that Gao Qilin's older brother was kicking her out the door, Gao Xiaoqin sneered.

"Brother Gao, don't you want to save Qiangsheng Group?"

"That's your brother's hard work! Can you really bear to see Qiangsheng Group fail and just stand by and watch it perish?"

Chapter 235 So Much Money

Gao Xiaoqin's words finally persuaded Gao Qilin's older brother, who then allowed Gao Xiaoqin to enter.

Gao Xiaoqin believed that Gao Qilin had preserved the building.

He should have decorated the room, but to Gao Xiaoqin's surprise, things didn't go as planned.

The Gao brothers were surprisingly sentimental; they hadn't touched a single thing in the room.

Moreover, the original model was preserved exactly as it was, without even touching a single piece of plaster.

When Gao Xiaoqin stepped into the house, she instantly felt as if she had traveled through time.

Gao Xiaoqin has experienced hardship before; her childhood was even worse than that of the Gao brothers.

When Gao Qilin was a child, his family relied on his older brother's fish-selling business for a living. Life was a bit tough, but they managed to get by.

Gao Xiaoqin is different; she and her younger sister came from a rural area.

When I was a child, my family was so poor that we didn't even have enough clothes for each person. We would only have clothes when we had nothing to do.

Only one person can run out wearing one piece of clothing, while the other person stays inside for a lifetime.

This memory, which Gao Xiaoqin had long since buried, was unlikely to be recalled by her.

But now, when Gao Xiaoqin saw the simple home decor of her eldest brother's house, she couldn't help but sigh.

"I never imagined Brother Gao lived such a simple life. Actually, my living conditions when I was a child were even worse than yours!"

"Honestly, we really are the same kind of people!"

Gao Qilin's older brother was delighted to hear this, even though he didn't concern himself with the affairs of the Qiangsheng Group.

But Gao Qilan's older brother wasn't stupid either; he was very clever.

He understood that Gao Xiaoqin had brought more than a dozen people to his house in the middle of the night.

She was all smiles, bowing and scraping, and even threatening me; she definitely wasn't here to play house.

This woman is very dangerous; she's a very famous and powerful figure in Jinghai City.

Normally, people have no chance of meeting her except for seeing her on TV.

But now, this woman has appeared before him with her entourage.

I doubt she's here to reminisce, even though Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Qilin both share the surname Gao.

But apart from that, they had no further connection.

But Gao Qilin's older brother was a smart man; he knew how to deal with someone like Gao Xiaoqin.

We must outsmart them, not force them!

Since my younger brother is currently working with Gao Xiaoqin, if I offend her, wouldn't that be putting my brother in an awkward position?

Realizing this, Gao Qilin's older brother smiled slightly at Gao Xiaoqin.

"Yes, Mr. Gao is right. We all share the surname Gao, so we're all one family!"

"But I don't know why Mr. Gao came to see me today?"

"By the way, Mr. Gao said you wanted to save my brother. I wonder how you plan to do so?"

Gao Qilin's elder brother stopped there, understanding that it was better to see through some things but not say them outright.

Because nobody is a fool.

Gao Xiaoqin is the CEO of Shanshui Group, so she must be very smart, and none of the people around her are easy to deal with either.

They came so late; they must have already decided what they wanted to do here beforehand.

All I need to do is wait for them to state their purpose, and then make a judgment based on the situation.

Gao Qilin's older brother is a very calm and composed person. Usually, when Gao Qilin has something he can't figure out, he will calm down.

He would even run to his older brother to ask for his guidance.

Now, Gao Xiaoqin has started chatting with Gao Qilan's older brother.

She had assumed that this middle-aged man, who lived alone in this dilapidated building, couldn't be very capable.

But after a heated debate, Gao Xiaoqin realized...

Gao Qilin's older brother is not easy to deal with; if I'm not careful with my words...

She might fall into their trap, but Gao Xiaoqin wasn't a woman who liked to waste time.

After Qi Tongwei's advice, Gao Xiaoqin felt it was time for her to reveal her true colors.

"Brother Gao, I think you already know without me saying it, your brother's group's cash flow is about to dry up!"

"According to my calculations, at least nine billion will be needed to make up for these losses."

"Now that our two companies are cooperating, I think I should help out. How about this, I'll contribute 10 billion to help Qiangsheng Group cover its losses?"

Ten billion! That's a huge sum of money!

Gao Qilin's older brother wasn't stupid; he understood that Gao Xiaoqin from Shanshui Group wasn't a fool.

Besides, Shanshui Group didn't take advantage of the machine head, and Qiangsheng Group wasn't Shanshui Group's savior.

Gao Xiaoqin's generosity must have some hidden reason.

Gao Qilin's older brother felt that if he agreed on behalf of his younger brother...

I fear that the entire Qiangsheng Group will fall into an abyss of no return.

By the time Shanshui Group bares its fangs, it will be too late for Qiangsheng Group to retaliate!

Chapter 236 Stabilize First

"How generous! Mr. Gao is so incredibly generous!"

"I know your Shanshui Group has always been wealthy and powerful, but this 10 billion didn't come from thin air!"

"Currently, Qiangsheng Group and Shanshui Group are merely in a cooperative relationship; they are not deeply intertwined."

"President Gao, there's really no need for you to spend so much money to help Qiangsheng Group overcome its difficulties!"

Gao Qilin's older brother is a sensible person; he understands that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world!

Yes, it exists, but it's also a trap!

You should know that Gao Xiaoqin is a very greedy woman. She even dared to embezzle hundreds of millions of yuan in severance pay from thousands of laid-off workers at Dafeng Garment Factory for her own selfish interests.

Now that she has taken out so much money all at once, if this woman says that she did it all to help Qiangsheng Group overcome its difficulties...

Gao Qilin's older brother, who was in charge of 320, naturally didn't believe her nonsense. He knew that this woman would get ten dollars from others for every dollar she paid!

Now that she's willing to put up 10 billion, her goal is to firmly control the Qiangsheng Group.

Although Qiangsheng Group has encountered problems with its cash flow, the group is still worth hundreds of billions!

This doesn't even include the shares and project contracts that Qiangsheng Group has in other groups!

If all of these are taken into account, then after the liquidation of Qiangsheng Group, it would still have at least hundreds of billions of assets.
