Chapter 34 Digging a Hole
Feng Hao patted Zhou Zechuan's shoulder gently, with a barely perceptible smile on his lips, as if he couldn't see Zhou Zechuan's gloomy expression at all.
But in his heart he sneered, "Don't hold it in. If you want to curse someone, you'd better do it now. This is just the right opportunity for him to take action."
Feng Hao had become very good at pretending to be innocent. For a moment, Zhou Zechuan couldn't figure out what Feng Hao was doing.
Therefore, I could only turn my attention to Chi Wenyan.
"Brother Chi, what are you guys up to?" Zhou Zechuan's voice was slightly agitated, and he almost gritted his teeth as he said, "You clearly know that this piece of land means something special to me, yet you still asked for a sky-high price of over 20 million. Isn't it obvious that you're going to make me lose everything?" His words were full of resentment and anger, as if he was accusing them of betrayal.
Chi Wenyan's expression remained calm, as if everything was under his control. "Don't judge a thing by its appearance. Your land may appear small, with high investment costs and the potential for losses, but it's actually a valuable piece of land. We're raising the price because we see its potential. Just imagine, once your nursing home is completed, what kind of influence will the Chi family's shop, as the first wave of residents, bring?"
When Zhou Zechuan heard that the Chi family’s shop would move in, his anger subsided a lot.
Ji Wan was standing beside Zhou Zechuan. She curled her lips and smiled when she heard that. She seemed to know what Chi Wenyan wanted to do. It all depended on whether Zhou Zechuan could fool her.
Ji Wan's lips curled slightly, and a barely perceptible gleam flashed in his eyes as he glanced at Chi Wenyan unintentionally.
Like a hunter with a well-prepared plan, waiting for its prey to fall into his trap. "Yes, Zechuan," she called softly, a subtle hint of seduction in her voice. "Mr. Chi has a point, you know? In this world, sometimes the craziest actions are often the wisest choices." She paused, her eyes penetrating, as if she could see into people's hearts. "Just like you right now, everyone thinks you're crazy, but only I know you're playing a big game."
How could Zhou Zechuan not be flattered by his own woman? Furthermore, Chi Wenyan said that if the Chi family could move in, what would he worry about financially? Once the news got out, who wouldn't come after him?
"I'm not that smart, it's Brother Chi who gave me the advice."
Zhou Zechuan paused and immediately said, "Brother Chi Chi, are you serious? Will you let the Chi family's shop move into my place?"
"Of course I won't lie to you. Of course, the Chi family's mall is not enough. Fenghao, please express your opinion."
Feng Hao scratched his head and said with a smile: "We are all good brothers, of course we should stick together, and my family business can also move in."
Zhou Zechuan was shocked. The Feng family's business was one of the best in Kyoto.
If they could all move in together, his nursing home would be well-known.
"The Feng family in the imperial capital! That's also a well-known industry." Ji Wan showed a surprised expression, then nodded at Feng Hao with a smile.
Feng Hao was almost blinded by the smile and thought to himself that this woman looked really pretty when she smiled. No wonder Brother Chi liked her so much.
"It's okay, it's just that I can make a living in Kyoto."
"Then you are really modest. Zechuan has the help of the Chi family and the Feng family. You are not just playing business, you are playing with your heartbeat and gambling with your future destiny. Your destiny is in your own hands. It will be bad if you lose it."
Ji Wan rolled his eyes and continued, "Just like Boss Wang just now, he's obviously a man who will burn his bridges after crossing them. When you turn things around, even if he comes back, we won't want him anymore."
When mentioning Boss Wang, Zhou Zechuan became furious for a moment. He did not expect Boss Wang to do this. He was waiting for the moment when Boss Wang would turn things around. Even if Boss Wang came back crying and begged him, he would never give him the opportunity to cooperate again.
Zhou Zechuan had already imagined this scene in his mind, but he quickly realized that the most important thing now was to confirm whether Chi Wenyan and the others could really move in.
"So, Brother Chi, did you do this on purpose?"
"Well, so now, the more people think you are a fool, the better your business will be."
No one feels threatened by fools.
Zhou Zechuan's mind raced, thinking that he had invested a huge amount of money, but the more he thought about it, the more likely it would be just as Wen Chiyan said.
Seeing that he invested so much and made a lot of money, the people above him would not want to let go of a sucker like him. He could use this as a bargaining chip, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger to get more resources.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zechuan's gloomy face instantly turned into a smile.
"It's still Brother Chi. Without Brother Chi, I wouldn't be able to do this business."
Chi Wenyan nodded and smiled faintly. The three of them exchanged greetings. Zhou Zechuan was anxious to go back and review the situation, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left with Ji Wan.
When Ji Wan left, he looked back at Chi Wenyan, and saw a gleam of light in Chi Wenyan's fox-like eyes.
It's ridiculous that Zhou Zechuan was sold out and still had to be counted for money.
But the more this happened, the happier Ji Wan felt.
After they walked away, Feng Hao and Zhou Zechuan also went out and sat in the car.
"Brother Chi, do you think Zhou Zechuan will believe you?"
"When he's at the end of his rope, he'll believe it. If he doesn't, he'll lose everything."
In this situation, Zhou Zechuan really had no choice but to trust him.
The artillery fire in Kyoto just needs someone to share the burden, so let Zhou Zechuan be the lucky one.
…
There are no stars to be seen at night in the company. I don’t know if it is because of the workers’ resentment that covers the sky or what.
It was a rare occasion that Ji Wan worked the late shift today.
She had already dismissed everyone in the department. She considered herself a good boss and shouldn't subject her employees to unnecessary overtime. There was still a dim light in the office, but it quickly went out, and then she heard footsteps leaving.
Zhou Zechuan's office was still lit. Ji Wan walked over, knocked gently on the door, and placed the newly prepared materials on his desk.
Zhou Zechuan had bruises under his eyes. He had been staying up late almost every day for this project these days.
I was still working on a data analysis report and looked up when I heard the voice.
"Wanwan."
"Don't look at me. It hurts to see you so tired. Go home from get off work early."
Zhou Zechuan took off his glasses and shook his head slightly.
"No, there's still a lot of things to do. Wanwan, I just happen to have something to tell you."
"good."
Ji Wan sat down, wondering what Zhou Zechuan was going to say next.
"This project is very important to me. It's my chance to turn things around in Yucheng. I want to go back on a business trip and be busy for a while. I won't be in the company during this time."
Ji Wan was delighted and acted reluctant on the surface.
"No, I don't want to leave with you."
