The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

Why should he be in charge of the acquisition?

It's absolutely inexplicable!

"Forehead..."

Chen Hanshu, however, appeared even more surprised than Chen Xingjun, saying, "Representative Chen Xingjun, don't you know about Jinjia Building? Since you're so familiar with the 'Babel Paradise' project, how could you not know about Jinjia Building?"

The meaning behind these words...

It's as if this Jinjia Building is crucial to the "Babel Park" project.

Chen Xingjun's expression turned somewhat grim. He turned to Zhao Taiwu, hoping to get some answers from him.

However, Cho Tae-oh also looked completely bewildered.

"President Zhang Hanshu, I truly have no idea what Jinjia Building is..."

Chen Xingjun suppressed his displeasure and said, "Please explain in detail what exactly is going on with this Jinjia Building..."

Zhang Hanshu's smile remained on his face, but a subtle, intriguing glint flashed in his eyes as he slowly spoke...

......

Chapter 553 Making a hefty profit

"Ah, is that so..."

Although Babel Construction had acquired the land for the 'Babel Park' project some time ago...

However, the demolition of the existing old buildings was not fully completed...

certainly...

You don't need to worry too much; the preliminary work for the demolition is actually almost complete...

Only the ownership of one building has not been fully acquired.

And what about that building...?

This is the Jinjia Building that I just mentioned.

Former chairman Zhang Junyu had been negotiating the acquisition with the property owner, but they had not reached an agreement.

Now the group has been restructured, and the 'Babel Park' project has been merged into the 'Golden City' project, with you now in control...

According to the rules, we shouldn't go too far...

That's why I wanted to remind you specifically, to avoid any misunderstandings.

"Is there such a thing?"

Chen Xingjun's face darkened, and he was even more furious.

This moment...

He felt he had been thoroughly tricked and immediately said in a deep voice, "Why was such an important matter never mentioned before?"

Zhang Hanshu shrugged, feigning helplessness, and said, "I thought you guys would know since you were so well-prepared, especially considering the tenants of that building caused quite a stir..."

"you..."

Chen Xingjun opened his mouth, wanting to ask another question.

But then I suddenly realized that continuing like this seemed pointless.

After all...

It's just a building.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, he asked, "Who owns the Jinjia Building? Give me his information."

Although I've managed to suppress my emotions...

But his tone still carried a lingering sense of irritation.

But this time, before Zhang Hanshu could even speak...

Then, someone Chen Xingjun least wanted to see and absolutely didn't want to talk to slowly raised their hand...

"Representative Chen Xingjun..."

Ding Xin leaned back in his chair, a cigarette dangling from his lips, and said lazily, "I'm the owner of that building!"

"It's you?"

Upon hearing Ding Xin's words, Chen Xingjun stared wide-eyed at Ding Xin as if he had encountered something unbelievable.

This moment...

A strong sense of conspiracy enveloped him; he felt that he had not only been tricked, but had been completely trapped.

Ding Xin, however, didn't care at all and remained lazily leaning back in his chair.

He took a drag of his cigarette, then slowly exhaled the smoke, his tone slightly teasing: "So, Representative Chen Xingjun, aren't you pleasantly surprised?"

I'm so surprised, you're a real jerk!

Chen Xingjun was internally ranting and raving...

He really wanted to point his finger at the man in front of him and start cursing, but he knew that now was not the time to act impulsively.

He clenched his fist and tried to speak calmly, "Director Ding, since you own the property in that building, things are much easier. The 'Golden City' project is our shared future, so..."

This means they're trying to get something for nothing...

He does have a bit of quick wit!

"So what?"

Ding Xin interrupted him directly, casually cutting off his escape route: "Let me remind you, don't try to trick me with those empty words. I won't fall for that. Public matters are public matters, and private matters are private matters. They must be kept separate and cannot be mixed up..."

"you..."

Chen Xingjun's eye twitched. Anyone would feel uncomfortable being interrupted so rudely while speaking.

He took a deep breath, trying to remain calm: "Director Ding, isn't it a bit unreasonable of you to say that? The 'Golden City' project is of great benefit to both of us. Don't you want to see this project succeed?"

He was still trying to use the greater good as an excuse to keep Ding Xin in check.

However, Ding Xin just smiled, revealing a hint of sarcasm: "Representative Chen Xingjun, of course I want to see the project succeed, but that doesn't mean I'll be fooled by your few words, what do you say?"

This attitude...

If you understand, then tell him that the road is blocked.

Chen Xingjun frowned deeply and decided to lay his cards on the table: "So what exactly do you want? Isn't there any room for negotiation at all?"

"Hey, you can't just say things like that. I never said I wasn't willing to discuss it..."

Ding Xin flicked his cigarette ash and said slowly, "But you have to show enough sincerity; words alone won't do."

"call--"

Chen Xingjun let out a long sigh of relief. He understood what the other party meant; in the end, it still had to be resolved with money. So he decided to stop beating around the bush and said directly, "Tell me, what are your conditions?"

"That's great! That's the kind of boldness a tycoon's heir should have!"

Ding Xin raised an eyebrow, offering a rare compliment, before making an outrageous demand: "My request isn't high at all, just 150 billion Korean won will do..."

......

After half an hour.

A convoy of luxury cars sped away from the Babel Group headquarters building.

Inside the middle car.

Zhao Taiwu, his face contorted with rage, questioned Chen Xingjun beside him, "Why did you agree to that black bastard's conditions? 150 billion? You're kidding me!"

"There's no need to delay any longer; it's just a mere 150 billion..."

Chen Xingjun remained calm and said lightly, "Don't forget, for us, the most important thing is to start the 'Golden City' project as soon as possible!"

At this moment, he...

Compared to before in the meeting room...

Both their personal demeanor and the tone of their voices are completely different!

"A mere 150 billion?"

Upon hearing Chen Xingjun's words, Zhao Taiwu shouted emotionally, "You make it sound so easy! That's 150 billion, not 15 million!"

Chen Xingjun wiped the drool off his face with a hint of disgust, and looked at the other person calmly: "I know this is a lot of money, but we have already wasted so much time because of wrong decisions. Do you know what the consequences will be if we continue to delay because of this mere 150 billion?"

These words seemed to have a special magic, instantly bringing Zhao Taiwu, who was in a state of agitation, back to a more sober state.

Silence for a few seconds.

He gritted his teeth, still unwilling to give up, and said, "We can't just give in like this! We can definitely bargain with him again and bring the price down!"

"bargain?"

Chen Xingjun gently shook his head, the scenes from the conference room flashing through his mind: "I know Ding Xin; he's not someone who compromises easily..."

Continuing to argue will only waste more time and energy.
