"That's it?"
Sitting in the car, Zhu Yeqing still couldn't quite believe it. Before coming, Zhu Yeqing guessed that they might have to come several times and go back and forth with Yu Zewei before they could get back the 6 billion yuan debt.
Zhu Yeqing had inquired and learned that the Zhu family had sent people to collect debts from Yu Zewei many times before. Among them were even direct members of the Zhu family with higher status than Zhu Yeqing. But no matter who it was or what methods they used, they failed to recover the 6 billion yuan debt.
But now, only a short while has passed, and Ye Chen has resolved the matter with just one phone call. That's incredibly fast.
"Of course it's over."
As he spoke, Ye Chen placed several bank documents and papers he had obtained from Yu Zewei into Zhu Yeqing's hands.
What's so difficult about solving something that can be resolved with just one phone call?
"ah?"
"No...no...no...these are for you..."
Zhu Yeqing left behind a few bank notes and handed over those assets to Ye Chen.
“Yu Zewei said there are 7.3 billion in these cards. I don’t know how much money is in each card. I’ll transfer the remaining 1.3 billion to you after I get back and find out.”
Zhu Yeqing added that since they won 12 billion, she only needed to take the original 6 billion to report back to the Zhu family patriarch. The remaining 6 billion belonged to Ye Chen, as it was won by him.
"Keep these safe. They'll be useful for building connections with the Zhu family and getting things done..."
Ye Chen refused.
What is a mere six billion? In Ye Chen's eyes, this amount of money is just a little pocket money.
Ye Chen's real goal was to get Zhu Yeqing to take over the entire Zhu family, and then make the whole Zhu family listen to him.
"Compared to the Zhu family, this little bit of money is insignificant. Use it to smooth things over."
Ye Chen explained.
"Okay, thank you................."
Zhu Yeqing nodded, understanding Ye Chen's meaning. In many places, money is needed to smooth things over. She had given most of her money to the Zhu family's successor in Shanghai, and she only secretly kept some of her subordinates behind.
Zhu Yeqing was extremely grateful to Ye Chen.
Around 10 p.m. that night, Ye Chen received a message from Elder Luo.
The results of the first round of elections for the new president of the Jiuding Chamber of Commerce are in, and Ye Chen came in first place.
Upon hearing this news, Ye Chen thought it was normal and nothing to worry about. However, when he heard Elder Luo say that the person ranked second was a person named Liang Yuanzhi, Ye Chen was somewhat surprised.
Ye Chen originally thought that Shen Yizhe would be second, and one of Wu Wendong and the other would be third. Unexpectedly, the second place was a guy he didn't know, and the third place was Shen Yizhe.
"Liang Yuanzhi is one of the Chamber of Commerce's veterans, a little older than me. I never expected him to actually come out of retirement this time..."
Mr. Luo was also deeply moved.
In terms of seniority, Liang Yuanzhi is even more impressive than Luo Lao. Unexpectedly, he suddenly emerged in this election and became a dark horse, directly surpassing Shen Yizhe and kicking Wu Wendong and the other two out of the top three.
This is the strength of the veteran members of the Jiuding Chamber of Commerce!
The next round of elections will be contested by Ye Chen, Liang Yuanzhi, and Shen Yizhe.
"I made some inquiries, and it seems that this Liang Yuanzhi has the support of a powerful force in Beijing and has bribed many members of chambers of commerce in other places..."
Luo Lao revealed this to Ye Chen.
However, due to the tight schedule, even Elder Luo couldn't find out exactly which major power Liang Yuanzhi was supported by.
"OK."
Ye Chen noted it down.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Chen sent people to investigate Liang Yuanzhi, who had suddenly appeared.
The next morning, just as Ye Chen was about to go out, an unexpected guest arrived.
The visitor was none other than Qin Lao's grandson, Qin Litao, who had volunteered to become Ye Chen's underling.
"Brother Chen, when did you come to Beijing? Why didn't you come to see me?"
Upon seeing Ye Chen, Qin Litao spoke with some disappointment. Qin Litao also studied in Beijing, but not at Beijing University; he attended another top university.
"Huh? How did you know I came to the capital?"
Ye Chen asked a question.
"Sister Cao told me."
Qin Litao replied that if Sister Cao hadn't told him, he wouldn't have known that Brother Chen had come to Beijing.
"Sister Cao, Cao Bailu?"
Ye Chen countered with a question.
"Yes, it's her."
Ye Chen nodded.
Although he didn't know what Cao Bailu was up to, Ye Chen didn't want to pay any attention to her right now. As for whether his whereabouts in the capital were exposed or not, it didn't matter anymore.
Today is the second round of elections for the Jiuding Chamber of Commerce, the most crucial moment!!!
As long as I win the election and become the new president of Jiuding Chamber of Commerce, nothing else matters.
Besides, Ye Huaicang's 80th birthday banquet is just around the corner, so whether or not it's exposed is no longer important.
"Brother Chen, come with me. I've prepared a welcome ceremony for you. It'll be fun!"
After saying that, Qin Litao planned to take Ye Chen out. Brother Chen had come to the capital, and this place was considered his territory. As the host, he would definitely give Brother Chen a proper welcome.
"I don't have time today, I have something important to do..."
Ye Chen refused, and then this Liang Yuanzhi suddenly appeared, and Ye Chen hadn't even found out which force was supporting Liang Yuanzhi.
Ye Chen wasn't in the mood to go out and have fun today.
Everything is ready, and today is the final step. Ye Chen is going to the headquarters of the Jiuding Chamber of Commerce to oversee things, just in case.
"Oh, Brother Chen, is something wrong? Tell me, I'll take care of it."
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, Qin Litao immediately stepped forward. This was Beijing, his territory.
"Even if I can't solve it, I still have my grandfather..."
Fearing that Ye Chen might think he couldn't handle it, Qin Litao added another sentence.
"In the capital, there's nothing he can't handle!!!"
