Even if we can't sell the company, we can at least pay off some of the loans to tide us over.

But Number Two shook his head helplessly upon hearing this.

"We've already investigated Jindatong. They have a large cash flow, but they are a financial company after all. They don't have much in assets, only a few tens of millions."

"Even if we wanted to help you through this difficult time, we couldn't possibly buy you at a higher price or lend you money. You should just focus on running your business well; it has great potential."

The words were kind, but they sounded incredibly harsh.

Exchanging 800 million for an investment company worth tens of millions—this is probably the biggest joke in Tianjin.

Within a few days, related reports were published in Tianjin and even across the country.

A massive fraud case has been successfully cracked, involving hundreds of millions of yuan.

While the general public was amazed, there was also an element of spectator-like curiosity.

Zhao Sihai, the boss from Tianjin, is really something else; he actually got scammed out of 500 million yuan.

How rich and how naive must someone be to do something like this?

Nanjing University dormitory.

Li Zhi was pointing out the state of the country in his dormitory, holding a newspaper.

"See? How terrible it is to be uneducated. These nouveau riche bosses are just taking advantage of the times; how could they be fooled like this?"

"Third brother, you know more, tell us what exactly happened?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wu gazed leisurely out the dormitory window and let out a sigh.

"Making small money depends on hard work, making big money depends on luck; that's their fate."

"Damn, are you trying to teach me some kind of metaphysics?"

"I'm telling the truth. Whether you're rich or poor, do good deeds and avoid evil. They've done too many bad things, and with so much bad karma, their luck has naturally run out. They deserve their misfortune and retribution."

At this moment, Su Wu wanted to shout, "Their retribution is me!"
