Chapter 172 Where to Go From Here



With the Jiang family villa gone and their other properties frozen, Wang Xiuzhen and Jiang Xuanxuan packed up their luggage and luxury goods, and for a moment they didn't know where to go.

Since it was inconvenient to take the luxury goods with her, Jiang Xuanxuan took advantage of a few days to auction them off online, selling more than half of them.

Wang Xiuzhen reluctantly took the jewelry to the gold shop and, relying on the certificate, managed to get most of it back.

Jiang Xuanxuan also opened a private account and put the money she collected into it.

Even after all that, they still only had a little over a million yuan left.

If you're buying a house, this million-plus yuan won't buy you any decent property these days. Besides, even if you buy a house, living expenses will become a problem.

Without a job, how will we solve our basic needs for food and clothing?

When the deadline arrived, the mother and daughter went to a hotel and rented a suite. Jiang Xuanxuan started looking at job postings.

But she lacks the qualifications for good positions, and she can't let go of her pride to interview for positions where she has the qualifications.

Therefore, Wang Xiuzhen thought of having Jiang Xuanxuan find a way to marry a rich man and enjoy a life of luxury.

But she didn't realize that Jiang Xuanxuan's reputation was now terrible, almost infamous.

She contacted several wealthy businesswomen to arrange blind dates for her, but they either gave her perfunctory answers or directly mocked her for giving them junk.

Wang Xiuzhen was furious. When she was successful, these women flattered and fawned over her. Now that she was in trouble, they turned their backs on her!

Staying in a hotel was very expensive, so after a few days, Jiang Xuanxuan had no choice but to persuade Wang Xiuzhen to rent a place and settle down first.

With fewer expenses, Jiang Xuanxuan will have the funds to go out and find a rich man!

So Jiang Xuanxuan reappeared in nightclubs. But with her current reputation, it was impossible for her to hook up with someone who wanted to marry her, so she started breaking up other people's families.

After spending time with those old perverts and getting them to spend money on her a few times, Jiang Xuanxuan found this kind of easy money quite comfortable, and lost all interest in finding a job.

Wang Xiuzhen didn't care how Jiang Xuanxuan got the money; as long as she had money to spend, that was fine with her.

Furthermore, while Jiang Jucai's assets were frozen, Xia Junhu and the other two siblings of the Xia family also had their investment projects frozen due to the related parties.

Xia Junhu was trapped with 60% of his shares pledged as collateral. Due to a shortage of working capital, he was unable to pay the bank interest in time. After two months of debt collection, the bank reclaimed his pledged shares.

Xia Junhu was in a bad mood after his assets shrank by more than half, but he was still thinking of using the new money he had just earned to buy back some of the shares.

However, after negotiating with the bank, he discovered that the shares he had pledged had been purchased by an unknown person.

That's 4.2% of Xia's shares! Who on earth is this incredibly wealthy person who bought them?

His first suspect was Xia Changlong, but the people watching Xia Changlong told him that he hadn't made any moves recently.

They also asked Xia Caixia and Xia Tengyun, and received the same result: the shares they had mortgaged had also been acquired.

Yang Yajing had previously received 1% from Xia Junhu, and now she has received another 4.8%, plus the 2.4% she received from Xia Tengyun and Xia Caixia respectively, giving her a total of 10% equity in the Huaxia Consortium, making her the second largest shareholder of the consortium.

Xia Junhu thought that whether it was 4.2 or 2.4, as long as it exceeded one percent, this person would definitely appear at the shareholders' meeting.

The spring shareholders' meeting is in April, and he'll soon be able to meet these individuals. He plans to recruit them all to his side.

"With 2.8 percent, plus the 10 percent acquired, he has 12.8 percent equity support, which is a lot more say than the original 8 percent!" He grinned mischievously, thinking he could turn misfortune into blessing!

This not only allowed him to gain more shares, but also incidentally diminished Xia Caixia and Xia Tengyun's influence. Xia Junhu was somewhat pleased with himself.

With the shareholders' meeting just two weeks away, Xia Junhu remained calm and unhurried, plotting how to bring people into his camp.

Meanwhile, Xia Changlong met with Yang Yajing at the commercial and residential building.

"Do you plan to attend the shareholders' meeting in two weeks?" Last time, Yang Yajing said that the time was not right and she did not want to attend. This time, Xia Changlong did not know what Yang Yajing was thinking.

"It depends on the situation this time," Yang Yajing thought for a moment. "Two weeks is a bit too much."

"Hurry up? Hurry up what?" Xia Changlong didn't understand. "What are you going to do now?"

"What are we going to do? Hmm... something we'll do in a big way!" Yang Yajing grinned mischievously.

"Tell me about it?" Xia Changlong was always curious about Yang Yajing's little scheme.

"Are you still in possession of the inheritance contracts signed when Old Xia gave you the shares?" Yang Yajing asked.

"Yes, they're all there, in the safe at home." Xia Changlong nodded. "Why are you asking?"

"Find a lawyer to read the small print!" Yang Yajing replied. "Do you have a reliable lawyer?"

Xia Changlong nodded; he did indeed have such a person in his life.

"Time is short. Let's arrange to meet tomorrow at the Xia residence?" Yang Yajing said, then picked up her bag and prepared to leave.

"Are you leaving? Aren't you going to eat?" Xia Changlong asked.

"I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a proper date! I'm going on a date now, and I'll also treat my great hero to a reward!" The great hero Yang Yajing was referring to was, of course, Zhou Pengfei.

If it weren't for the connections Zhou Pengfei had built up over the years among government officials, which enabled him to defeat the Jiang family and acquire shares in the Huaxia Consortium, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

"Yes! We should treat them!" Xia Changlong nodded. "My treat?"
