The four companies recommended by He Bin did not include Longyu Real Estate. But this cannot be blamed on He Bin, after all, the other party just had this idea and had not released the news.

Lu Jiaxin called He Bin and asked him to collect information about the company: "Longyu Real Estate made a profit of 8.6% last year. If they want to sell it, they will definitely sell it at a premium. Please help me find out their reputation and company details, and then contact them after understanding them."

The four real estate companies that He Bin found had a highest profit margin of only 4.3%, two of them broke even, and one was in a loss-making state.

"I'll go find someone now."

You have to take your time when acquiring a company. You can’t rush. If you rush, you’ll easily make mistakes. As school was about to start, Lu Jiaxin also focused on reading.

The night before the Lantern Festival, Nie Zhan returned to the old house to have dinner with Old Master Nie. Since moving out, he would not come unless Old Master Nie called him, and this was the first time he took the initiative to come back for dinner without being called.

Old Master Nie smiled and asked, "How come you have time to come here today?"

Nie Zhan explained the reason: "I have to go to Gu's house with Jia Xin to celebrate the Lantern Festival tomorrow, so I can't celebrate the festival with you."

Mr. Nie had also been through a young time before, and he smiled and told him to seize the opportunity and try to marry her as soon as possible.

During dinner, Nie Jingwen suddenly said, "Ah Zhan, I heard that Miss Lu is contacting several real estate companies. Is she trying to acquire a real estate company?"

Nie Manli was shocked.

Nie Zhan did not deny it and said with a smile: "Brother, you are well-informed."

If you don't know such big news, there's no point in staying in Hong Kong. Nie Jingwen said, "Ah Zhan, if Miss Lu needs a loan, our bank can give her the best discount."

Nie Zhan glanced at Nie Manli and rejected the offer directly: "Brother, Jiaxin has a very good cooperation with HSBC. If you need a loan, you will definitely choose it."

It would have been fine to let Jiaxin apply for a loan from the bank, but his aunt said that Jiaxin's collateral was not worth that much money, which was clearly questioning his failure to distinguish between public and private matters. If Jiaxin were to apply for a loan from the bank again, who knows if the bank would think that Jiaxin was taking advantage of him.

Grandma Nie smiled and said, "Ah Zhan, Miss Lu is your girlfriend and will be a member of our Nie family in the future. Why should we go far away when we have our own bank? Don't you think so?"

Nie Zhan politely refused: "Sister-in-law, although Jia Xin and I are dating, we will not interfere in each other's affairs. If she doesn't ask me who to borrow money from, I won't tell her."

Not to mention that they are just boyfriend now, even if they get married and become husband and wife in the future, he will not interfere in the affairs of Lu Jiaxin's company.

Nie Jingwen felt a little regretful.

Kang Huijuan deliberately provoked trouble and said, "Third brother, what you said is wrong. If you hadn't asked that mainland girl to mortgage her things in the bank, how could she have so much money to buy the company?"

When Mr. Nie heard that Nie Zhan would come back for dinner, he called everyone back. As an old man, he likes to have the whole family together and have a lively time.

Nie Zhan was originally dissatisfied with Nie Jingshu and his wife, but Mr. Nie did not show it to him. Now that she jumped out, Nie Zhan was not polite and said, "Jia Xin is from the mainland, but the things she mortgaged in our bank are all worth millions. What about you? When you married my second brother, what did you bring into the house?"

Nie Jingting said disdainfully: “Forget about bringing anything in. Our family gave a betrothal gift of 3.88 million and a house in Causeway Bay, but they didn’t bring anything back!”

After that, he asked in confusion: "Second sister-in-law, it's true that Miss Lu is from the mainland, but she was admitted to the University of Hong Kong and is an investor. Her family also has a background. How can you look down on her?"

This is quite hurtful.

Nie Jingting is the youngest and the most favored child in the family. When he grows up, he has no pressure to inherit the family business, so he does things as he pleases: "I should be the one asking you this. What kind of magic potion did you feed my second brother to make him obey you? Even when someone died in the family hotel, he listened to you and hid away, making our entire Nie family a laughing stock."

Miss Lu is outstanding in every aspect and is a perfect match for the third brother. On the contrary, Kang Huijuan has nothing but a pretty face. Nie Jingting is a person in the entertainment industry. He has seen so many beauties that he is immune to Kang Huijuan's face.

Seeing that Kang Huijuan wanted to say more, Nie Manli said with a straight face, "It's rare that your grandfather is so happy that A-Zhan is back. You have to mess with it before you act, right? If you don't want to eat this meal, you can leave now."

Nie Zhan was a little surprised.

Kang Huijuan was so angry that her eyes turned red. Last year, she knew that Nie Zhan was pursuing a girl from the mainland, and she was happy that she was finally not the last one in the family. She said some ambiguous things to Nie Manli for this. But she didn't expect that not only Nie Zhan was protecting the girl from the mainland, but also the eldest brother, the eldest sister-in-law and the fourth brother were on her side. She didn't know what was so good about the girl from the mainland.

After dinner, Nie Zhan went home.

Nie Manli called Nie Jingwen into her room and asked, "Jingwen, tell me, why did Lu Jiaxin ask our bank for a loan?"

Nie Jingwen said, "Mommy, Miss Lu is not only planning to acquire a real estate company, but she also bought a cemetery a week ago and paid more than 18 million in full."

After hearing that Lu Jiaxin bought a villa worth more than 40 million, his first reaction was that the money was used to mortgage the antiques, but he quickly denied this speculation. The things were mortgaged half a year ago. If you want to use this money to buy a house, you can buy it in half a year without waiting until now.

Nie Manli asked: "It would cost tens of millions to buy a real estate company. Where did she get so much money?"

Nie Jingwen said, "She is dealing with medium-sized real estate companies, and it would cost at least 60 to 70 million to acquire them. Mommy, Miss Lu is a shareholder of Chery, and she also has investments of her own. I don't know what kind of investments she made, but she must have made a lot of money."

"She is a shareholder of Chery?"

Nie Jingwen said, "Yes, Ah Zhan said that she is not yet an adult, and she is relatively low-key, so she has not announced it to the outside world. Mommy, it is true that Miss Lu came from the mainland, but she has a wealthy family, is beautiful and capable, and is not inferior to those rich girls in Hong Kong.

Nie Manli asked, "Did she really invest on her own, not because A-Zhan invested for her?"

Nie Jingwen hummed and said, "Even if Ah Zhan invested in her, the capital is her own. Mommy, if Miss Lu comes to visit in the future, you have to entertain her well."

Nie Manli said hesitantly: "But the things she did..."

Nie Jingwen interrupted her, "Mommy, her stepmother not only rigged her exams to make her fail, but also arranged for human traffickers to abduct her. She barely escaped death. With such a deep hatred, I think it's too light to just collect evidence of that woman's illegal activities and send her to jail."

Nie Manli was stunned: "Didn't she say that she couldn't tolerate her stepmother and stepsister, so she deliberately lured her stepmother into corruption and then sent her to prison?"

"Who told you that?"

Nie Manli was silent for a moment and then said, "Jingshu's wife told me this, and it seems to be spread outside as well."

Nie Jingwen was almost mad with anger. This guy was really a troublemaker.
