During this period, there were many rumors that the land in the west of the city might be of great use, but not many people believed it.
When Ji Mingyao heard these rumors, he became even more worried, as if the hiding place of the treasure, which he had just discovered, was now known to more people. This was not acceptable.
Therefore, Ji Mingyao paid many people to spread the news outside, and everyone really thought that the land in the west of the city was just a rumor.
The subsequent actions naturally could not be hidden from Jiang's company. The assistant also reported this to Jiang Muyan, "President, should we also bid for that piece of land? Ji Mingyao actually made all these moves behind the scenes, which definitely proves that the land is real. Should we bid for it?"
"No need, you go down first." Ji Mingyao said calmly, and the two of them did not avoid Fu Yunxi at all when talking.
Fu Yunxi was also a little surprised when she saw Ji Mingyao's confident look.
Since he was the one who planned it, he naturally knew that the land in the west of the city was fake, but Jiang Muyan didn't even consider it. Did he really regard money as dirt?
After the assistant left, Jiang Muyan looked at the woman sitting on the sofa. Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, he spoke first, "Do you have anything to ask me?"
"How do you know that the land in the west of the city is fake?" Fu Yunxi asked directly without beating around the bush.
"I've been in business longer than Ji Mingyao. He believes that piece of land will be used to build a city center, but I know it's not suitable." Jiang Muyan explained logically, "Besides, even high-ranking officials don't know the specific use of a piece of land."
Jiang Muyan was so frank, he really saw the situation clearly.
Only those who want something good to happen will regard this as a life-saving straw.
The auction officially begins.
During this period, Ji Mingyao had sold most of the Ji family's belongings in order to raise more money so that he could buy the land today.
Ji Mingyao had already made a bid at the beginning, hoping to acquire the land at a relatively cheap price, but he didn't know that there were always people competing with him.
"Fifty billion." Ji Mingyao's whole body was shaking when he said this number. This was already most of the money he could come up with. If it was any higher, he would probably have to bear a huge risk.
Fifty billion was spent just to buy that piece of wasteland. Many people were watching the fun. After all, the struggle between wealthy families was not common.
Ji Mingyao thought he could win it, but he didn't expect Jiang Muyan to suddenly bid, "6 billion."
Having reached this point, Ji Mingyao could only invest the remaining money. "6.1 billion."
The auctioneers were very excited when they heard this number.
"6.1 billion at a time." The auctioneer's voice was very loud.
It seems that they want to attract more people to bid.
Jiang Muyan didn't react, so Ji Mingyao felt relieved.
"6.1 billion twice." After the auctioneer said it for the second time, he looked at Ji Mingyao with a smile on his face. After all, if nothing unexpected happened, this piece of land would belong to Ji Mingyao.
When the auctioneer said "6.1 billion three times," the land was finally sold.
When Ji Mingyao got this piece of land, he felt like he had got a mountain of gold and silver, and he was very happy.
Xie Rufei was truly happy for Ji Mingyao, and the two of them had been in love for a long time.
But Xie's father knew that all this was an illusion. When the matter was exposed, Ji Mingyao would definitely show his true colors.
Then my daughter will be free.
Su Ling also learned the news. Ever since they didn't feel awkward last time, she has been trying to improve their relationship.
So she went to Ji Mingyao's company. Ji Mingyao had been in high spirits recently. In addition, Su Ling had never bowed her head to him before. Now she came to the company on her own initiative. Ji Mingyao felt a little happy.
However, Su Ling was his confidante after all, so Ji Mingyao let her in.
"You quarreled with me so fiercely at that time, but now you know that I was doing it for your own good." Su Ling has learned her lesson now, so she said this in a coquettish way after the two of them reconciled.
"Of course you are the best person to me." Before he was in charge of the Ji family, Ji Mingyao was not as ambitious for power as he is now. Now that he has come into contact with these things, he is even more reluctant to let go.
If everything goes according to his plan, the Ji family will prosper in his hands.
The news that Ji Mingyao had bought the land at a high price quickly spread. Many people said that Ji Mingyao was even more courageous than Jiang Muyan. For a time, Ji Mingyao was doing very well.
He had more social engagements, and many people came to compliment Ji Mingyao, so Ji Mingyao himself became a little arrogant and felt that Xie Rufei's role had been almost fully utilized by her.
When Xie Rufei saw Ji Mingyao coming back drunk again, she couldn't help but nag him a few more times, "You've been drinking for so long, it's unpleasant and harmful to your health."
Even if it was just a caring word, if it was in the past, Ji Mingyao would not think anything of it, but now he doesn't like Xie Rufei, and he just wants to get information from her father. Now he has almost used up everything he can, so why would he be nice to her?
Xie Rufei felt a little aggrieved, but seeing how drunk he was, she didn't leave. She hadn't noticed that she had changed a lot recently. Unlike the sunny girl she used to be, her face was now filled with sorrow, and there was no trace of the joy of being immersed in a young love.
It is said that women are most beautiful when they are in love, but in the past, when she was not in love, she was stunningly beautiful even without makeup. But now, even if she has put on makeup, it still can't hide the fatigue on her face.
Not long after, news suddenly came from above: the government had decided to build a shopping mall in the east of the city, making that the future center. Previously, there had been no news, so the land there was privately owned. Anyone whose land was to be expropriated would receive a large sum of compensation.
"Is the information you found out true?" Ji Mingyao's voice was trembling. After hearing the assistant's exact answer, he collapsed in the chair.
When Ji's father heard the news, he fainted from anger. That was all the Ji family's property! If that piece of land was really a wasteland, then their Ji family would be finished.
It can only be said that the Ji family was too greedy. At that time, even if many companies wanted to buy that piece of land, they all planned to form a joint venture. If the land was useful, they could make a little money in the future. If it was not useful, they would just leave it alone for the time being.
Ji Mingyao had relied on Xie's father's connections to make the Ji family's business better in the past, and since he was now Xie Rufei's boyfriend, he did not doubt it.
After Ji Mingyao returned to his residence, he immediately lashed out at Xie Rufei, "Now my Ji family has been badly screwed by you. Are you satisfied now?"
