Chapter 102 Continue to hurt each other
Yijiu's Office
President Mu looked at the online discussions. The hot searches were all about Yi Jiu's identity and Chengjiang Group. Chengjiang accounted for more than ten of the top twenty hot searches. The one about the man who claimed to be his cousin had long disappeared.
As long as Yijiu can negotiate this contract, he will post another Weibo.
It was really hot, she was definitely the hottest person of the year.
Yi Jiu's story is not the cliché of a grassroots counterattack, but a story of being born rich. He has been living away from home since he was young, but he has attended private elementary school, aristocratic junior high school, international high school, and studied abroad.
By the way, the rumor that Yi Jiu was kept by someone was also debunked. This way, netizens would not dig into Yi Jiu's private life, and the news of her divorce from Jing Xin would not be exposed.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Yi Jiu and He Jingxin walked in. President Mu raised the contract in his hand and said, "Yi Jiu, I won't beat around the bush. Just think of it as your support for my Mu family in exchange for a project we have, the low-altitude economy."
"Mr. Mu is right. The transaction is a mutual one. I want the operating rights for 40 years." Yi Jiu criticized He Jingxin on the one hand, but she was very obedient and believed in He Jingxin's character.
When President Mu heard the price, her smiling face froze, and she glanced at He Jingxin out of the corner of her eye. He Jingxin, on the other hand, was looking at the ceiling quietly, as if it had nothing to do with her.
"Forty years, Cheng Jiucheng, you are really not polite at all." President Mu raised her eyes slightly, knowing that this was definitely not the price Yi Jiu had in mind, and she would have to argue with him again.
The competition between the Xiao family and the Mu family is in a white-hot stage. The Xiao family's biggest support is that the major families owe Xiao Shaoyue a favor and have promised to help the Xiao family, and Minister Xiao has been watertight for many years.
Yi Jiu's attitude will be the biggest variable.
Yi Jiu is Xiao Shaoyue’s biological daughter, but Minister Xiao is not Xiao Shaoyue’s biological father.
Yi Jiu was looking at the chips of both parties. Minister Xiao proposed a marriage between Yi Jiu and the Luo family, and Yi Jiu did not explicitly refuse. Even if the two of them signed a movie or variety show, they said they would hype up their CP.
She also thinks it's a scumbag!
However, she couldn't say, "I'll give you 40 years, but you reject the Luo family. Don't marry into the Luo family." This would mean that the Mu family would offend the Luo family, and the Luo family would turn to the Xiao family.
"Mr. Mu, you have to know that the land area cannot be compared with the sky area. Moreover, the purchase price I offer does not require a bank loan. There will be no bad debts."
Yi Jiu is well aware of the current environment. The current economic environment has seen a large number of bankruptcies, which has led to many bad debts in banks. In the end, these bad debts are all filled by taxpayers' money.
Chengjiang does not need bank collateral, the money is given directly.
However, the money offered was 30% lower than the market price, which was not in line with expectations.
President Mu pondered for a while. She wanted to play a psychological warfare tactic with Yi Jiu. "Little President Yi, you have to know that the general election is held every ten years. In the political arena, it is always you who finish the election and I come on stage. I can guarantee you for ten years, but I can't guarantee you for the next thirty years. You know that with the technological innovation, the first batch of people who got rich were Director Cheng, who stood on the wave of going into business and real estate. The second batch was the Internet and e-commerce. The third batch was new energy and short video influencers. Isn't it getting shorter and shorter every time wealth is distributed?"
There are several signals in Mr. Mu's words. The Mu family can only protect you for ten years and will not give you big cakes. They also tell you that the time for wealth redistribution is getting shorter and shorter. They are giving you a brainwash for this little brat who is just starting out and is so unruly.
Of course, neither the 70 years she had originally written nor the 40 years she had proposed were the prices Yi Jiu had in mind. She looked at He Jingxin, and it was time for He Jingxin to help her bargain. But He Jingxin was not looking at the ceiling, but at her phone.
"The hot water is gone. I'll go add some for you." Yi Jiu just wanted to come over and see what He Jingxin was doing.
As a result, I saw two WeChat messages coming in.
——Let's meet in the evening and have a chat. How about 6:30 pm?
——I heard that Mr. He likes French food, so how about we order the one in the city center?
He Jingxin heard the sizzling sound of the water cup in front of him, then turned off the WeChat on the phone screen and nodded to Yi Jiu, "Thank you."
In the blink of an eye, Yi Jiu was only focused on reading the content and didn't even have time to see the name of the person who sent the WeChat message.
I know she likes French food, so she seems to be someone I know very well.
So who is this person?
"It's overflowing." He Jingxin reminded her. Yi Jiu woke up as if from a dream. The overflowing water wet He Jingxin's sleeves. Her sleeves were steaming. Yi Jiu hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, President He."
He Jingxin had no expression on her face. She asked gently, "Boss Xiao Yi, do you have any extra clothes here?"
"have."
Because of this incident, the negotiations were suspended.
Yi Jiu took He Jingxin to change clothes. Yi Jiu found a turtleneck for her. He Jingxin took it in her hand and asked, "Do you have an omega one?"
The guy she met at night was an alpha?
"No." Yi Jiu denied subconsciously, and asked stubbornly and casually: "You seem very unhappy. If you don't like it, you can wash it and return it to me when I'm on night shift."
He Jingxin walked into the built-in bathroom to change clothes.
Yi Jiu frowned and stared at He Jingxin through the frosted glass, while He Jingxin sighed helplessly, the guest that night was not ordinary.
Forget it, forget it!
She was not afraid of her own shadow, and she thought the customer would not think too much about it. She finally put on Yijiu's turtleneck, and the pheromones belonging to Yijiu surrounded her, soothing her fragile and helpless heart.
She stood in front of the mirror. The high collar matched her coat better and it looked even better with her long hair down.
She pushed the door open and saw Yi Jiu waiting outside.
He Jingxin said, "Forty years, you have indeed made things difficult for her, but you have grasped her psychology very well when the funds are directly deposited into her account. You need to make a circuitous and tactical retreat."
Seeing her wearing her clothes, it was like hugging her again, and the slightly irritated feeling in her heart was relieved a little. However, hearing her words that were of no practical use made her even more unhappy.
She crossed her arms and said impatiently, "You should just say what you want to say. Why are you beating around the bush and making a tactical retreat? Just tell me the bottom price. Why are you using so many tricks?"
Wait until Yi Jiu and He Jingxin return to the office again.
President Mu asked, "Xiao Yi, how about ten years? I can definitely guarantee you ten years. The price remains the same."
Haha! The time is reduced by 1/4, and the price remains the same.
President Mu is really taking advantage of the situation. He Jingxin cannot be relied upon, it is better to rely on oneself than on others.
"Why not give me the construction of the helipads in several pilot cities across the country?" Yi Jiu said with a smile, "When Qin Shi Huang unified the country, he also followed the same track and the same writing system. What do you think, Sister Mu?"
Yi Jiu called her "Sister Mu" affectionately, and President Mu felt goosebumps all over her body.
"Sister Jiucheng, I will agree to your condition just because you call me sister. Even brothers should settle accounts clearly, let alone business people like us."
Who wouldn't be a malicious person?
It's no use calling me sister or ancestor.
"Sister Mu, if you are sincere, I will also give you a price sincerely. Since you said ten years, then it will be ten years. The time is reduced by 75%, so as for the price, please let me reduce it by 2 or 2 points." Yi Jiusi did not give in. "After all, the old antiques on the board of directors fooled me once, and they can't fool me a second time. I am young, and I need the help of these grandpas and uncles."
The expensive part of this thing is the first years, to occupy the market
"Sister Jiucheng, doing business is also about making friends. Don't push too hard. Let's put it this way. Don't reduce the price by two points. The price you quoted before was three points lower than the market price."
"Since we are cooperating, we should show our sincerity. How about asking the bank to provide a loan certificate?"
Yi Jiu went even further and asked for a loan directly. That was to share the risk. He was really cunning.
He Jingxin showed President Mu a report on his mobile phone. This was a data comparison of all the companies participating in the bidding. He Jingxin finally came out to mediate, "President Mu, take a look at this data report I just made for Chengjiang Group, as well as data reports for other companies."
He Jingxin will present today's data on the helicopter and the safety issues encountered in low-altitude jet streams. No company can surpass Chengjiang Group, so Yijiu has the capital to be proud.
"It's better for both sides to take a step back. President Mu will give Chengjiang the operating rights for 20 years. In addition, a pilot project will be given. Chengjiang will be responsible for the EVTOL pilot project in Haicheng, and there is no need to bid. And the production of the APP. President Xiaoyi should not bother the bank, and he should not lose two points."
"I agree. What do you think, Mr. Mu?"
"Then sign the contract. After that, you just need to communicate with Jing Xin about some procedures."
......
Yi Jiu's Weibo posted a post:
Hello everyone, I am actor Yi Jiu, also Cheng Jiucheng of Chengjiang Group. When I just returned home last year, my family entrusted me with an important task. I was really forced to hide this matter from all my fans due to external pressure. I am really sorry.
Yijiu’s certification on Weibo.
It was directly changed to Cheng Jiucheng, the successor of Chengjiang Group.
Cheng Chencheng's Weibo:
I can finally shout out loud, this is my sister @Chengjiang Group heir Cheng Jiucheng.
Lu Youning's Weibo:
Dear fans, I'm sorry to have you all over me. Sorry, sorry. I'd like to introduce to you the new member of our family, my sister @ChengJiuCheng, the successor of Chengjiang Group.
Dr. Chu's Weibo:
You guessed it right, we are really a family, stick out your tongue.jpg. Let me tell you a secret, I initially thought of my sister as a love rival, and I was quite jealous of her.
Yi Jiu directly asked the public relations department to suppress other doubts about her life experience, such as why Yi Jiu's last name was Yi, why Yi Jiu did not grow up in the Cheng family, etc. Some crucial details cannot be dug out at once, but have to be dug out slowly over a long period of time.
The Internet is not a lawless place.
Netizens dare not dig deeper.
What Yijiu wants is the effect of a full network hammer.
The Xiao family is really courting death by taking advantage of this popularity.
Xiao Yaozu drove drunk and caused a rear-end collision, which aroused public anger. Xiao Yaozu also pretended to be Minister Xiao's grandson many times to show off his power, but Minister Xiao dared to say that he was unaware of it. Chengjiang Group announced in a high-profile manner that the heir had returned and Yi Jiu's identity was innocent.
In a way, this proves that she is the child of the Cheng and Xiao families.
Yi Jiu is Minister Xiao's granddaughter and a direct relative. So did Xiao Yaozu occupy this direct relative status to some extent, and was Minister Xiao accused of not managing his family properly?
Yi Jiu and the Xiao family do not have a close relationship.
Minister Xiao is just trying to win votes.

Evening French restaurant
The lights were on and this high-end French restaurant was already full. Its interior was low-key and luxurious, and it was surrounded by light music.
On Meituan, most people give it a five-point rating, and it is definitely a holy place for dating and dining.
He Jingxin sat opposite Luo Zhifei, who elegantly cut the steak in front of him and drizzled a layer of black pepper sauce on it. "I heard that President He plans to settle in Beijing at the end of the year."
He Jingxin put a piece of steak into her mouth and nodded, not hiding it: "Yes, I plan to stay in Beijing permanently."
"You and Yi Jiu haven't reconciled yet? Is it because of her and Mingshu?" Luo Zhifei was right. A big part of the reason why she didn't reconcile was because of her and Yi Jiu themselves. Of course, she was also jealous of Luo Mingshu.
Although she had told herself several times in her heart that Luo Mingshu was a very good person, her intuition told her that Yi Jiu's attitude towards Luo Mingshu was comparable to her attitude towards Cheng Chencheng and Lu Youning.
It was like a thorn in her throat.
He Jingxin picked up the drink at hand and said, "Doctor Luo, I heard that you have a better room."
"This is an empty house under my name." Luo Zhifei did not gossip and sent the picture of the house to He Jingxin, along with a VCR. "This property is near Peking University, with convenient transportation."
He Jingxin took a quick look at the house. This house is about 200 square meters, and the decoration style is elegant and unique, which suits her taste. It is currently the better one she has seen.
Luo Zhifei really likes to see He Jingxin smile, she is gentle and polite, and knows when to act. Maybe she is very satisfied. Luo Zhifei tasted the pan-fried longli fish, and his lips curled up unconsciously. He felt satisfied when he sat down to eat with He Jingxin.
"How much does this house cost?"
Luo Zhifei said: "Mr. He, I will give you this house for free, but..."
Luo Zhifei looked through the glass window and saw a car outside. The window rolled down and it seemed to be...Yi Jiu. She also noticed the high collar that He Jingxin was wearing, which was an alpha style.
It turned out to be just as she thought.
The two young lovers said they had broken up, but Yi Jiu came to pick them up obediently, and He Jingxin helped her get the order and even wore her clothes. Her little niece should not get involved.
"Do you hope that I can be more tolerant of Miss Luo in the future?" He Jingxin saw what Luo Zhifei was thinking.
Luo Zhifei nodded, "Boss He, I don't think Mingshu and Yijiu are good. If they are in love with each other, I will naturally support them. However, young people nowadays are more impulsive and passionate. Her love for Yijiu is more of admiration, and she also has a kind of obsessive desire to love but cannot get it."
Luo Zhifei smiled dotingly again: "Mingshu is my eldest brother's child, the only daughter in the family. When she was little, I always gave in to her in everything. I treated her like a little princess, so naturally I raised her to be someone who wants whatever she wants."
worship
He Jingxin lowered her head and continued to cut the steak in her hand. Didn't Yi Jiu admire her at first? But in the end, she was moved, to the point where she couldn't be more moved.
Worship turns into bigotry.
This seems exactly like her.
She clenched the knife in her hand. She really had no other choice. He kept beating her and was almost cutting out her heart.
She thought that she would be hard-hearted this time and try to ignore Yi Jiu and anything she did during the day. Whatever she wanted to do, where would she and her end up?
She looked outside in a trance and saw a tall woman standing under a street light.
“Buzz buzz buzz.”
He Jingxin lowered his head to check his phone, and the words "Yi Jiu" popped up on the screen, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Yi Jiu asked: "Are you home now?"
"Yes." He Jingxin answered casually. She put her long hair that fell on her chest behind her ear. Under the street light, Yi Jiu looked at He Jingxin in the glass window with deep eyes. Her face had a complicated expression. "Then open the door for me. I'm at your door."
He Jingxin's smile faded. She couldn't continue to tell this lie. Their eyes met. She simply stopped pretending and said, "Well! I'm not at home. Chengjiang alone is not enough for you to take care of. You still want to take care of me, Qingmu."
In response to their last argument, Yi Jiu said that He Jingxin controlled her too much.
"Then what were you doing at home when you lied to me?"
"Then what were you doing at my doorstep when you lied to me?" He Jingxin asked mercilessly, "I don't have time to argue with you now, and I don't want to argue with you. I've already bargained for you."
He Jingxin's soul asked: "The contract is done, everyone on the Internet is cheering for you, you have both fame and fortune. And Miss Luo is with you during the day. What else are you not satisfied with?"
Yi Jiu was suddenly speechless. She pressed her temples, but she didn't know how to answer.
Luo Zhifei handed a dessert to He Jingxin. He Jingxin cut a piece and tasted it. She said to Luo Zhifei, "Doctor Luo, this dessert is sweet but not greasy. It tastes good. You should try it too."
"Thank you."
He Jingxin could only hear Yi Jiu's long breathing, like a calming spell that was hypnotizing him over and over again.
He Jingxin asked tentatively: "Could it be that I'm having dinner with someone else and you're jealous?"
"What did you talk about with Luo Zhifei?"
I thought she was really jealous, but it turned out I was just being too sentimental.
He Jingxin chuckled, and a moment of bitterness and sadness appeared on his face. "Don't worry, I won't destroy the relationship between you and Luo Mingshu. I'm not that despicable."
Yi Jiu didn't want to answer that question. She didn't want He Jingxin and Luo Zhifei to have too much contact. "What time did you finish eating? It's almost half past eight."
He Jingxin was still testing: "Oh~~you miss my body."
Yi Jiu held the handle inside the car. Every second that He Jingxin and Luo Zhifei were together was torture for Yi Jiu.
She denied it: "You are already old, how can I be interested in you?"
"You are so young! You insist on attacking me personally. You are just a brat." He Jingxin's defenses were broken instantly. Her face darkened, and all her resentment came out at once: "If you don't want to attend this crappy class, then why did you come to me?"
He Jingxin hung up Yi Jiu's phone directly. She was no longer suitable to chat with Luo Zhifei, and she was very sad.
Soon, she said goodbye to Luo Zhifei.
After she left the restaurant, she walked towards the club next to her, and Yi Jiu followed her. She immediately asked, "Luo Zhifei, did she tell you anything strange?"
"Cheng Jiucheng! I told you that no matter what happens to you and Luo Mingshu, it has nothing to do with me. I won't tell Luo Zhifei nonsense." He Jingxin was really irritated by Yi Jiu's words. Her eyes were moist and red.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel on the street, Yi Jiu grabbed He Jingxin's hand, and she was just about to say a few words to comfort her.
"Yi Jiu, this is my private time. Besides, we broke up. You have no reason to control me. You don't need to work the night shift on weekends, get out." He Jingxin shook Yi Jiu's hand off and took out the anti-wolf spray. A layer of mist appeared in the air. "If you follow me, be careful or I will be rude to you."
"I'll take you home, and we'll talk about it when we get home, okay?" Yi Jiu coaxed her patiently. He Jingxin really couldn't stand Yi Jiu's constant nagging. Since she came to find her, she might as well talk nicely.
"You despise my age, and I also despise you for your bad work attitude last night and your lack of seriousness." He Jingxin arrived at the door of the club and walked to the front desk. She took out a card and said, "I need ten of the youngest and most energetic alphas for a private room."
