Liu Zhongyi said with a smile, "Mr. Lin, there's no need to be so polite! You and my Liu family have known each other through thick and thin, which is fate. Let alone a mere piece of violet jade, even if you wanted my Liu family's Jade Pavilion, I would offer it to you without hesitation!"
He wasn't just saying this to sound nice; after all, he'd already given away 30% of the shares, so what difference would one more Cuihua Pavilion make?
Liu Siyun's pretty face flushed slightly. Her grandfather had declared years ago that the Cuihua Pavilion was her dowry, but she never expected him to say such a thing to Mr. Lin at this moment, which made her unable to help but have wild thoughts.
Lin Yu quickly waved his hand, "Grandpa, let's keep things separate. This violet jade is quite valuable, and I should give you a corresponding reward!"
Liu Zhongyi's face immediately hardened. "Mr. Lin, are you looking down on me, or are you deliberately trying to embarrass me? Talking about money would only hurt our relationship!"
"this……"
Lin Yu was speechless.
This fan buckle was his mother's only keepsake. He treasured it and was incredibly grateful to Liu Zhongyi. He felt uneasy if he didn't give something in return.
Liu Zhongyi's expression shifted, and he suddenly said, "Mr. Lin, how about this? The talisman fan you gave me exploded before I even had a chance to enjoy it. It broke my heart. How about you paint another one for me when you have time?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu immediately replied, "That's easy! Bring me a brush, ink, and a fan, and I'll paint for you right away!"
Liu Zhongyi was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately told his granddaughter to make preparations.
In no time, the items were gathered and placed on the desk in the study.
Lin Yu immediately began to paint.
Liu Siyun was worried that Lin Yu would make a mistake, so she prepared three extra fan paintings. As a result, Lin Yu painted three in a row.
After finishing the drawings, Lin Yu blew on each one to let them dry, then said to Liu Zhongyi, "Old Liu, the three talisman fans I drew this time are spirit talismans! They are even more powerful than the previous talismans! They have spiritual power and can distinguish between good and bad fortune. If someone tries to harm you or comes to your home to commit violence or theft, the spiritual power of these three fans will be passively triggered, causing them to attack. You must keep them safe!"
A talisman?
Liu Zhongyi was so excited that he was completely awestruck. Such a precious item could not be left lying around, so he quickly put it into the secret room.
...
When we left the Liu family's house, the sun was almost setting.
Ma Jianguo and Feng Jiu have left to handle the aftermath of the Martial Alliance and the Huang family's affairs.
The sudden collapse of two giants in Guanzhong is no small matter.
To minimize the impact, Lin Yu instructed them to temporarily suppress the news. This also gave Zhou Xiaotian time to smoothly take over the businesses of both companies.
On the way back, Zhou Xiaotian was driving again.
At this moment, Zhou Xiaotian's heart was blooming like a flower. He had lived for more than 30 years, always underwater, and now he had finally seen the light. By following Brother Lin, he had inadvertently become the King of Guanzhong!
This is the right person to follow!
I once saw a cynical quote on Douyin (TikTok) that said, "If you associate with people who are worth tens of millions, you can earn a million; if you associate with people who are worth hundreds of millions, you can earn ten million." That's absolutely true.
So, he followed the future King of Northeast China and ended up becoming the King of Guanzhong!
That's fucking awesome!
Throughout the journey, Zhou Xiaotian kept flattering him, using up all the flattery he had ever done in his life.
"Alright, alright!"
Lin Yu had a terrible headache. "If you're going to work for me, don't flatter me. Just do your job well! Also, the Li family and the Huang family previously issued some policies to jointly suppress the Xu family. After you take over their families, you must continue to implement these policies. Do you understand?"
Zhou Xiaotian immediately assured him, "Understood, Mr. Lin! Don't worry, once I take over the business, I will intensify my efforts to strike at the Xu family!"
Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction.
Now, two of the three giants are gone, leaving only the Xu family.
What bad intentions could he possibly have?
All you want is a letter of recommendation, right?
I never intended to kill Xu Chengyi; I just wanted to see if he would cooperate.
Achoo!
At that moment, Xu Chengyi, who was in Yandu, suddenly sneezed.
I haven't been sleeping well these past few days, which has lowered my immunity, and as a result, I caught a cold.
My head is throbbing!
How can I not have a headache?
His own business was being tightly controlled by the Huang and Li families, and his cash flow was about to dry up. He, the Marquis of Guanzhong, was about to become a debtor!
A century-old enterprise, built through the efforts of generations!
Previously, his son had confidently claimed that he had met some young master Xi and could join the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce. In the past few days, his son had taken several million yuan of pocket money from him, but he hadn't heard a word from him.
That's really infuriating!
"My lord!"
Just then, his assistant knocked on the door and entered his room, exclaiming with delight, "Great news, Your Excellency!"
Xu Chengyi rubbed his temples. "Don't be so alarmed. I'm already grateful that nothing bad has happened!"
"It's truly good news, Lord Marquis!" the assistant said excitedly. "Our spies in Guanzhong have already gathered information that the higher-ups of the Huang and Li families are in trouble! Huang Long was arrested at his villa, and his house was ransacked. Li Donglai from the Li family is also in jail, and Li Dahai was also killed!"
"What??"
Xu Chengyi's face lit up with joy. "Really? Did you hear that right?"
The assistant quickly replied, "It's absolutely true! This time, both of them are really finished!"
"All over? Maybe not?"
Xu Chengyi snorted, his expression gradually returning to calm, and his eyes began to flicker.
