Jiang Tiansheng pushed away the two women in his arms and walked straight to Ye Zijun, looking down at him.
"Ye Zijun, who gave you the audacity to provoke me?"
Ye Zijun slowly stood up, met Jiang Tiansheng's gaze, and showed no fear.
"Jiang Tiansheng, shut your arrogance in front of me!"
"Your tricks won't work on me at all, understand?"
Jiang Tiansheng and Ye Zijun stared at each other for a moment, then Jiang Tiansheng chuckled. "How dare a mere illegitimate son of the Ye family provoke me?"
"That's interesting!"
"I'll offer 180 billion. If you offer even a penny more, I'll withdraw."
The threat was very clear.
Ye Zijun frowned slightly, his expression shifting between light and shadow. After a long while, he finally spoke slowly, "I'll add one cent!"
Jiang Tiansheng's face instantly darkened. "You fucking want to die!"
Ye Zijun sneered. "Jiang Tiansheng, is that all you've got?"
"You threaten people and yell at them all the time. Do you think I, Ye Zijun, am made of clay?"
Jiang Tiansheng suddenly raised his hand and slapped Ye Zijun across the face. "You illegitimate son of trash, do you really think I wouldn't dare to slap you?"
Ye Zijun flew into a rage. "You motherfucker..."
"Bang"
Jiang Tiansheng kicked Ye Zijun to the ground and then proceeded to punch and kick him.
"How dare a piece of trash born out of wedlock provoke me?"
"Do you think that just because you've become the heir to the Ye family, I won't dare to touch you?"
"I just don't dare to kill you easily, but I still dare to beat you up."
"You little trash, enjoy my fists and kicks!"
Ye Zijun didn't even have a chance to resist; he clutched his head and wailed in pain.
Everyone's lips twitched violently; Jiang Tiansheng was far too arrogant.
In this setting, in front of Prefect Cao Yuanliang, he brutally beat the heir of the Ye family.
They showed no respect to Cao Yuanliang, nor to the Ye family.
"Jiang Tiansheng, what do you think this place is?"
Cao Yuanliang could no longer hold back. With a gloomy face, he slowly stood up and looked at Jiang Tiansheng with a slightly sinister gaze.
"Do you even respect me, the governor of this coastal city?"
"Do you even respect the Binhai government?"
Do you believe that your Chiang family can disregard national laws and regulations?
Jiang Tiansheng stopped, turned to look at Cao Yuanliang, and had a look of contempt on his face.
"Prefect Cao, are you trying to show off your official power in front of me?"
"Although my Jiang family dares not disregard the laws and regulations, with just one word from me, your position as prefect will be over!"
"If you want to continue being your governor, you must learn to turn a blind eye and pretend to be deaf and dumb."
"Don't meddle in things that aren't your business!"
What is arrogance? This is it!
In full view of everyone, he actually threatened a high-ranking official.
Jiang Tiansheng is indeed as arrogant as he claims!
Cao Yuanliang's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Where is the guard?"
"Seize this lawless and arrogant scoundrel immediately!"
Jiang Tiansheng's gaze sharpened, then he grinned. "Prefect Cao, it was just a joke, why did you take it so seriously?"
"I apologize to you, I'm sorry!"
"I hit someone, and I'm willing to make compensation. I hope you won't hold it against me, an ignorant young man!"
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. This reversal was too fast, wasn't it?
He was arrogant and domineering just now, but now he's taking the initiative to admit his mistakes. The contrast between his past and present behavior is too great.
Cao Yuanliang was stunned for a moment, then waved for the guards to leave.
"Young Master Jiang, I hope you won't cause any trouble while you're in Binhai!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Jiang Tiansheng gave Cao Yuanliang a half-smile, then said, "Prefect Cao, I suspect Ye Zijun cannot produce 180 billion, so I request an on-site inspection of the funds!"
Cao Yuanliang frowned, then said calmly, "Granted!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Zijun's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. Ignoring the pain in his body, he quickly stood up.
"Prefect Cao, I truly cannot come up with 180 billion right now!"
"But according to the rules of investment promotion, I only need to put up 30 billion in the first phase!"
Jiang Tiansheng sneered. "You dare to bid 180 billion with only 30 billion? What if you can't come up with the money later?"
"Your Ye family is powerful and influential. Do you think Prefect Cao would dare to force your Ye family to pay money?"
At this point, he looked at Cao Yuanliang. "Prefect Cao, I suggest that Ye Zijun's bidding qualification be revoked!"
"Otherwise, you'll probably find it hard to win people's hearts!"
"After all, there are so many people here, and quite a few of them can come up with 30 billion. Does that mean they can just ask for whatever price they want?"
"Anyway, the first phase only requires an investment of 30 billion, and whether we can come up with the money later seems to be no longer important."
At this moment, Liu Ruyan suddenly stood up and echoed, "Jiang Tiansheng is right, I disagree!"
“My fiancé has 150 billion in cash, so wouldn’t he be able to ask for 300 or 400 billion directly?”
"Or is it that your prefectural government only bullies honest people like my fiancé?"
Liu Ruyan and Jiang Tiansheng's words resonated with many others.
In fact, for the old city renovation project itself, an investment of 30 to 40 billion yuan is sufficient.
The price was raised to 180 billion because the project was targeted by the four major families in Beijing and Bai Xuan.
Otherwise, many of the people present today would have the ability to take over the old city renovation project, but they dare not get involved because of the four major families in Beijing and Bai Xuan.
The prefect's office was naturally aware of this, which is why it put this project up for auction at the investment promotion conference.
They took this opportunity to exploit the four major families in Beijing as easy targets, thereby boosting Binhai's GDP and gaining political achievements.
This is precisely why many capable individuals hesitate to take on the project.
These people would naturally have some dissatisfaction and complaints about the prefect's office.
Now that they see an opportunity to humiliate the governor's mansion, many people naturally don't want to miss it.
Cao Yuanliang's face was rather grim. Jiang Tiansheng and Liu Ruyan had launched their attack together, and so many wealthy businessmen had taken the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
This investment promotion conference could very well become a stain on his official career.
Just when he was in a dilemma, Qin Feng spoke up.
"I think they have a point!"
"Ye Zijun's bidding qualification must be revoked."
"Furthermore, the current bidding prices are too high. I suggest changing the bidding rules!"
"Apart from Ye Zijun, whoever bid the highest just now will have this project awarded to them for 50 billion!"
"If anyone objects, let's see who has the most cash!"
Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, everyone rolled their eyes in unison.
Besides Ye Zijun, the highest bidder just now was Jiang Tiansheng.
However, this project will definitely not belong to Jiang Tiansheng, because Qin Feng has more than 150 billion yuan in cash, while Jiang Tiansheng may not have that much.
If Cao Yuanliang agrees, then the project will ultimately belong to Qin Feng.
Liu Ruyan and Mu Qingxue looked at each other in disbelief. This guy was too insidious!
Ye Zijun frowned, his expression shifting between light and dark.
Jiang Tiansheng looked at Qin Feng with a glint in his eyes. "Kid, you're Liu Ruyan's fiancé?"
"You have over 150 billion in cash, why don't you just announce that this project belongs to you?"
