Li Jianfeng got up in the morning and was putting on his prosthetic arm when he heard the report. He was so angry that he threw the prosthetic arm to the ground, and his face became as ferocious and terrifying as a ghost.
"Wu Hao, wasn't it only the monitoring personnel who knew about the underground minerals back then? How did Xiang Qiang find out?"
His bloodshot eyes looked at Wu Hao.
Wu Hao took a step back in fright. "I asked my inside contact, and someone called Li Hua and Li Hua relayed it to Xiang Qiang."
"Who made that call? How did they know about this?" Li Jianfeng roared. "Investigate them!"
Jiang Ning was reading in her room when she heard their roar and chuckled.
If she hadn't been given a second chance at life, they would have had her completely under their thumb. They would never have dreamed that she was the one who made the call.
Just then, even more devastating news came to Li Jianfeng: Luo Guangming had provided a videotape showing someone deliberately vandalizing the building, and the media's response to Fuqiang Group was all positive.
Luo Guangming also took the opportunity to promise everyone that as long as they buy a house in Jixiang Community, they will receive insurance with their purchase. Within ten years, if any quality problems occur in the house, it will be repaired for free. If large cracks appear, everyone will be able to replace their house with a better one for free. The original house will become a dangerous building and will be demolished immediately.
After he implemented this measure, countless people went to the sales office to inquire about buying a house, and the houses officially went on sale.
It's fair to say that the house sales got off to a flying start, and everyone in the capital city now knows about Jixiang Community.
The people sent by R&F Group were quickly taken into custody by the police and admitted to the deliberate sabotage.
The leaders of R&F Group claimed that those people were just temporary workers, completely shirking their responsibility.
But the public has its own judgment, and R&F Group's image has plummeted.
Upon hearing this news, Li Jianfeng felt a splitting headache.
The intention was to cause Fuqiang Group to lose money, but unexpectedly it brought them a wave of attention.
His own residence became a deserted ghost town due to the presence of radioactive minerals.
After all, nobody wants to get cancer!
However, after a brief period of rage, he managed to calm himself down.
His master gave him enough property back then; Xiangshan alone was not enough to bankrupt him.
At worst, we can just abandon this project; if we lose money, so be it.
If he can successfully secure the Asian Games Village project, his fortunes will turn around, and he will accumulate even more wealth than before.
"Wu Hao, keep a close eye on the Asian Games Village project. We absolutely cannot let Fuqiang Group snatch it away," he instructed Wu Hao.
Wu Hao felt that it would be unwise to invest all his money in the capital at this time, but once Li Jianfeng made his decision, he couldn't persuade him otherwise and could only follow his lead.
Soon, the day arrived for bidding on the Asian Games Village project.
Luo Guangming personally took the tender documents to submit the bid.
At the time of the bidding, R&F Group was far ahead with 200 million yuan.
Fuqiang Group came in second with 150 million.
Just as the relevant authorities announced the winning bidder, the head of R&F Group received a call from Wu Hao.
He was about to tell Wu Hao that the project had been secured, but the person on the other end of the phone told him to give up the bid and transfer all the money back to Hong Kong.
"No way, all our previous efforts have been wasted!" the person in charge lamented.
Wu Hao said sternly, "For the sake of the bigger picture, if the money doesn't come back, the group will become a dishonest enterprise and will never be able to get a loan from the bank again."
To put it bluntly, Li Jianfeng's own assets within his group are only about 100 million yuan, and he ultimately has to rely on bank loans to develop new projects.
His recent business deal was snatched away by Xiang Qiang. He couldn't sell the goods and therefore couldn't collect payment. Coincidentally, he had an 80 million yuan loan to repay at the bank, so he had to abandon his investment in the capital to solve his immediate problem.
After all this turmoil, R&F Group's reputation in Beijing plummeted to rock bottom.
Fortunately, after the bank loan was repaid, the credit in Hong Kong did not collapse, and new projects can continue to be developed in the future.
However, taking stock of the losses over these days, the direct losses and potential losses amount to at least one or two hundred million.
Li Jianfeng felt defeated for the first time.
He had been doing well since taking over his mentor's business, but suffered heavy losses after establishing a branch in the capital.
But he did not give up; instead, he pointed the finger at Jiang Ning for his failure.
To vent his anger, he ordered Wu Hao to call Jiang Ning and his wife out, intending to teach them a lesson.
To everyone's surprise, when Wu Hao ran into the room, he found the window wide open, the curtains billowing in the wind and slapping against the walls, and no one inside.
He ran over and looked down, and saw all his vicious dogs lying on the ground, barely alive.
"Oh no, they've escaped."
Wu Hao quickly came out to report.
Upon hearing this, Li Jianfeng was so angry that he stepped forward and slapped him.
"Did you let them escape?"
Wu Hao said aggrievedly, "Boss, it really wasn't me. My parents are still in your hands. You could kill them with just a word. How could I dare?"
But now, all the signs are making Li Jianfeng doubt that Wu Hao is reliable.
At his command, Li Jianfeng ordered Wu Hao to be dragged away, locked up, and have his tongue pulled out, thus preventing him from ever practicing law again.
Just as Li Jianfeng unleashed a large number of thugs in an attempt to find Jiang Ning and her husband, police cars arrived with sirens blaring and stopped in front of the villa.
Several uniformed police officers broke down the door and entered.
Some of them were police officers from Hong Kong, and some were from the mainland. After showing his police ID to Li Jianfeng, a Hong Kong police officer said sternly:
“Mr. Li Jianfeng, we suspect that you are involved in the human skin mask case and the Duoqi murder case from many years ago. Please come with us to the police station. You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be used as evidence in court.”
After he finished speaking, silver handcuffs were put on his wrists.
At night, the cruise ships aboard the Victoria are brightly lit.
Jiang Ning and Lin Chen embraced each other, swaying their waists to a soft dance tune.
After the song ended, the two sat down in the booth where Xiang Qiang was sitting, raised a glass of champagne, and clinked glasses with him.
"Congratulations, Uncle Xiang."
Jiang Ning took a sip, her smile faint.
Xiang Qiang downed the glass in one gulp, his voice filled with gratitude.
"President Jiang, thanks to you this time, I was able to acquire such a large territory in such a short time. Don't worry, I will find a way to bring that Li Jianfeng to justice."
The four big bosses in Hong Kong all wanted to annex each other. With Jiang Ning's help, Xiang Qiang turned the territory occupied by Li Jianfeng into his own and became the boss of the Hong Kong underworld. No one else had the strength to oppose him.
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "It's a pleasure working with you."
The trip to Hong Kong ended with a satisfactory resolution to Li Jianfeng's situation.
When they returned to the capital, they suddenly received an invitation from Yang Ziqiang to have dinner.
Jiang Ning asked Yang Lu why she was treating everyone to dinner.
Yang Ziqiang has always been very low-key and has never hosted such a grand banquet for others before.
Yang Lu told her that Xue Mei was actually his biological daughter.
