Old Master Huang wanted to curb the Nangong family's arrogance.
The Nangong family had no reason to simply wash their necks and wait to die.
To survive, we need to cut our losses and send a few companies out to show Huang Lao.
As for the few families that left, they no longer had any official connection with the Nangong family, and were no longer subject to Huang Lao's interference.
Nangong Qun looked at Lu Fan with a complicated expression and said:
"The actual operation is naturally not as simple as it sounds. I did come to see you today because there are some things I want to talk to you about."
It's not about holding Lu Fan responsible because of the "accident" involving the deceased heir.
Lu Fan was also surprised by Nangong Qun's appearance today, but since their past friendship remained and they had never become enemies, he gestured for Nangong Qun to speak freely.
"If there's anything I can help with, just let me know."
Nangong Qun smiled, but the smile was rather bitter:
"Our family has been removed from the Nangong family and we took my mother's surname, Li."
"From now on, you can call me Li Qun! I came here today to ask you if you would accept me as your right-hand man."
"I don't know as much about business as you do, but I haven't wasted my time learning from the Nangong family all these years!"
Before Nangong Qun, no, now Li Qun, could finish speaking, Lu Fan's eyes lit up.
When Li Qun mentioned wanting to continue doing business with Lu Fan, Lu Fan didn't need to think and immediately agreed:
"It's nothing, I invited you six months ago, it's my honor to have you come!"
He then asked Li Qun's family if they needed his help:
"You know, I've been in Nanshan City lately, but whether it's Jinghai City or here, there's always a shortage of manpower."
Lu Fan was already excited enough to have such a capable person as Li Qun.
Not to mention Li Qun's father and grandfather.
Those two were once prominent figures in Jinghai City.
Although Li Qun's family had escaped Huang Lao's control, they clearly wouldn't openly side with Lu Fan at this time.
"Both my father and grandfather have warned me that now is not the right time. If the whole family comes, it could really get you into a lot of trouble!"
Old Huang is not one to suffer in silence.
Li Qun was able to come and work for Lu Fan because of their previous relationship.
Otherwise, he would have to stay at home and bide his time, just like his father and grandfather.
Lu Fan was already happy enough to have Li Qun, so without much hesitation, he told Li Qun to be ready to come to work at any time.
As the two were chatting, Kuang Peisheng came out alone and saw Lu Fan talking with another young master from the Nangong family from afar, which made him even more convinced that his decision was correct.
Kwong Pui-sang's smile arrived before he did:
"Wow, I didn't expect President Lu to be so generous. He actually managed to acquire those plots of land."
Lu Fan smiled and introduced himself to Kuang Peisheng and Li Qun, then said, "Congratulations to you both."
Kuang Peisheng's pursuit wasn't solely for his own small plot of land; he also wanted to discuss the development of the land he had won the auction with Lu Fan.
"It just so happens that we have a mature and experienced construction company here. If we cooperate, Mr. Lu will definitely not suffer any losses."
Lu Fan stopped beating around the bush with Kuang Peisheng and said directly, "As for the development and investment, Fanyue Real Estate Company has already made other arrangements. Thank you for your kindness this time."
Kuang Peisheng handled the situation quite well, even though he was politely declined.
"Alright then. If Mr. Lu has any future investments or collaborations, please remember that we're brothers. It's settled then, haha."
He gave himself a way out and then backed down.
Then, citing the reason that he didn't want to disturb his conversation with Li Qun, he hurriedly left.
Li Qun glanced at Kuang Peisheng's retreating figure and shook his head:
"The bait was dropped way too fast."
Lu Fan sensed the deeper meaning in Li Qun's tone and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What, is there something wrong with Kuang Peisheng? Isn't he the president of Huanmei Group?"
Lu Fan didn't know much about Kuang Peisheng, but he was familiar with Huanmei Group.
Founded over 30 years ago, it forged ahead during the period of rapid development in China's real estate industry and rose to the position of a leading real estate company in the country.
It has branches in more than 60 cities across the country, with annual sales reaching hundreds of billions!
Lu Fan's Jiang Group is still lacking, but judging from Li Qun's evaluation of Kuang Peisheng, it doesn't seem to be very high.
Li Qun nodded and said, "Huanmei's brand line is doing well, but this Mr. Kuang is also a talent."
As far as Li Qun knew, Huanmei's decline and this Mr. Kuang's rise to power began around the same time:
"This year's revenue will not reach 100 billion, it has dropped by 10%, and we don't even know how many billions we will lose."
Lu Fan then mentioned the invitation from President Kuang to Li Qun.
Li Qun clapped his hands and laughed: "I knew it! Is this a case of being desperate or just looking for a way out? The president of such a multinational company is actually personally getting involved in soliciting investment and sponsorships. His behavior is really not very respectable."
