Hu Zeqing felt that this was a period of rapid development for Ruyang Foods, and they could not afford to miss any opportunity for growth.

Faced with such a major trend, how could they possibly care about a small shareholder?

Even if it's rumored that Su Wu and Er Pi were the two who initially founded the company, if capital had any sense of morality, what would be the point of all this?

But it's been a month, and Su Wu is stubbornly refusing to make a move. But why is Ruyang Foods also silent?

Is the Li family really that calm?

After confessing to Su Guiquan, he approached his temporary partner, Yao Aiguo.

"Uncle Yao, can you help me analyze the current situation? What exactly is the Li family thinking?"

He told Yao Aiguo about the current situation and wanted to hear his opinion.

Yao Aiguo pondered for a moment, "There is indeed something strange about this. Logically speaking, the Li family shouldn't be sitting idly by."

"Yeah, the Li family hasn't made a move at all. Does that mean they don't care about the market in Shanghai?" Hu Zeqing was speechless.

"Impossible. Who would turn down money? Is it possible that they're short of funds and can't handle Su Wu? Or is Li Zhi still mediating between them?"

Yao Aiguo stroked his chin as he analyzed, his brows furrowing into a deep frown.

"Insufficient funds? Although the Li family doesn't engage in business, they have many partners. Or perhaps your judgment is flawed," Hu Zeqing began to suspect.

Yao Aiguo shook his head. "Even if the Li family didn't personally get involved, they were definitely involved. You know Peter Ma, right? He came all the way to Tianjin."

“Peter? Isn’t he in Shenzhen?”

“He came to Tianjin and took over half of the Modern City project. I suspect he did it on purpose to show us.”

"What's going on here? Is it a self-dealing transaction? Or is there more to it than meets the eye?"

"I don't know."

Peter Ma and the Li family have intricate connections, a fact they are all well aware of.

Their high-profile appearance in Tianjin now makes them suspicious.

After a pause, Yao Aiguo analyzed, "This year's housing fair has made Tianjin shine, and the Modern City project is a prime example. If it starts construction in full, it will definitely cause a sensation. I don't need to say more, do I?"

"Will housing prices rise further, bringing both fame and fortune?" Hu Zeqing frowned.

"Indeed, Feng Jingyang is coming soon. Your Hu family... should start making plans."

Yao Aiguo's implication was quite clear.

In order to compete with the Li family, the Hu family arranged for the number three position.

The Li family was clearly trying to prevent them from reaping the benefits.

Hu Zeqing was somewhat annoyed upon hearing this.

Since we are going to fight the Li family, we cannot ignore this point.

Yao Aiguo stopped there and then turned to analyze Su Wu's situation.

"I think the Li family is now planning to divert funds to Tianjin for development, temporarily abandoning the expansion of Ruyang Foods. However, Su Wu will definitely not have an easy time; he will be abandoned sooner or later."

"That makes sense. I'd like to see how long they can hold out. It's time to seriously discuss our cooperation."

Hu Zeqing nodded, determined to squeeze Su Wu until he couldn't take it anymore.

Just then, Yao Aiguo said with a smile, "Peter Ma said he's coming over, and judging by the time, it's about time. We can test him out."

Everyone here is a respectable person, so it's only natural that Peter Ma would come to visit.

He was surprised to find Hu Zeqing there when he arrived.

However, thinking of Su Wu, he couldn't help but speak up for him during the conversation.

"I've heard that Zeqing has been suppressing Ruyang Drinks' entry into Shanghai lately. I wonder why?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Zeqing revealed a playful smile.

"Hehehe, who can predict the market? We can only say that their products are no good."

Peter Ma shook his head helplessly, "Ruyang Foods is a leading enterprise in Tianjin, why is Zeqing doing this?"

"Then what advice does Brother Ma have for me?" Hu Zeqing asked with a half-smile.

“Su Wu and I have some acquaintance. If there’s anything, we can sit down and talk it over. There’s no need to make a scene,” Peter Ma said with a smile.

Hu Zeqing sneered. "I'm targeting Ruyang Foods, Su Wu doesn't represent us."

“Zeqing, do you really have to make a scene in Tianjin? You’re being a bit too domineering.” Peter Ma narrowed his eyes.

He didn't expect Hu Zeqing to be so uncooperative, showing no intention of backing down at all.

Hu Zeqing and Yao Aiguo exchanged a glance, both having a general idea of ​​what was going on.

The current situation is similar to their analysis.

Since Peter Ma has already gone this far, who would believe it's not related to Ruyang Foods?

They didn't realize that Peter Ma was just trying to save face.

Now that he's spoken, he has to make a difference.

Hu Zeqing suddenly laughed and said, "Just kidding, Brother Peter, why take it so seriously? But some things need to be explained, everyone needs to save face."

"It's good that Zeqing can consider the big picture. Tianjin is supporting Ruyang Beverage to become a domestic leader," Peter Ma replied with a smile.

Since Hu Zeqing has conceded, he should give him a reminder.

Upon hearing this news, Hu Zeqing and Yao Aiguo both frowned.

If that's the case, then that's another story.

On the other side.

Su Wu held the Yamaguchi Company's order with a broad smile, knowing that things were already halfway done.

Next, we just have to wait for Hu Zeqing and Su Guiquan to lose patience and come back.

Then he can conveniently admit defeat and leave the mess to them.

Who would have thought that a pillow would be given when you're about to fall asleep?

He had barely prepared his supplies when Su Guiquan came knocking on his door.

He looked at Su Wu with a serious expression.

"Xiao Wu, you can't beat a big shot like Hu Zeqing. Don't ruin your future."

"Isn't it because you're eyeing what I have? You're letting a wolf into the house."

Su Wu's face was full of sarcasm, showing him no respect whatsoever.

This time, Su Guiquan was not angry; he remained calm and composed.

"I know you have grievances, but I'm doing this for your own good. The world is a dangerous place, and your little bit of shares will be eaten up sooner or later. Those big bosses are ruthless and heartless."

"Then just tell me directly. Why bring in outsiders and even give them benefits?"

"I had no choice. You have no idea how many people are eyeing you. There's a saying, 'Whether it's the wind or the waves that destroy you...'"

"I think you're just being reckless. How can a big boss like you be eyeing his son's money? The company won't let me sell; you can force me to my death, but it won't change anything!"

"You little rascal, I'm doing this all for your own good. It'll all be yours in the future! Wait, what's this...?"

As they were talking, Su Guiquan saw an order document in front of Su Wu and picked it up without any hesitation.

Upon seeing it, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"A coal export deal of 1 million tons?"

"This is an order that the boss asked me to help him get."

A sly glint flashed in Su Wu's eyes, and he quickly snatched the order.

Su Guiquan stood there stunned, his mind racing as he calculated the potential profits.

That's hundreds of millions in profit!

Moreover, if such a channel were available, one would make a fortune.
