Upon returning to Villa No. 1 in Danjiang Villa, Zhang Xianzong had already obtained the results of his investigation into Lu Yutong's background.
However, the investigation results were not ideal; Lu Yutong's experiences before the age of twenty-two were completely blank.
We don't know whose daughter she is, and we couldn't even find out where she went to university.
When Lu Yutong was twenty-two years old, it was as if she appeared out of thin air, and she became a senior executive at the Star Country headquarters of the Longyin Group.
Lu Yutong is not a citizen of China, but a citizen of Singapore.
Besides that, there was no other useful information.
This investigation result made Qin Feng even more suspicious that Lu Yutong was very likely Lu Zhengang's daughter.
Otherwise, why would Lu Yutong be hostile towards him?
His suspicions were based not only on the sense of hostility he felt from the other party, but also on the fact that the abandoned villa area had once been owned by Lu Zheng'ang.
Now it belongs to the Longyin Group, and Lu Yutong happens to be the president of the Longyin Group's Longguo region.
Seeing that Qin Feng remained silent, Zhang Xianzong said awkwardly, "Master, I'm sorry, I didn't expect Lu Yutong's background to be so complicated."
Qin Feng glanced at Zhang Xianzong and said, "This isn't your fault!"
"If I'm not mistaken, Lu Yutong has a very powerful organization behind her, which has been secretly cultivating her."
"Her parents may have kept her birth a secret from everyone and then sent her abroad for secret upbringing."
"Have someone investigate Lu Zheng'ang, mainly focusing on what happened more than twenty years ago. I still suspect that Lu Yutong is very likely Lu Zheng'ang's daughter."
Zhang Xianzong nodded and immediately took out his phone to call someone to investigate Lu Zhengang.
"That's right!"
Qin Feng suddenly thought of something. "Have them look for the Fragranceless Fruit again!"
Lu Yutong had already given the Qingling Grass to Zhang Xianzong, and now all that was missing to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill was the Fragranceless Fruit.
Although Zhang Xianzong's intelligence organization failed to thoroughly investigate Lu Yutong's background, finding out the whereabouts of the Fragranceless Fruit should not be a problem.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xianzong asked curiously, "Master, what do you need the Fragrance-Free Fruit for?"
"As far as I know, the 'fragrant fruit' seems to contain a deadly poison."
Qin Feng smiled slightly. "It does indeed contain a potent poison!"
"But everything in the universe has its counterpart. When the Fragranceless Fruit is mixed with certain elixirs, it is not only non-toxic, but also a great tonic."
Zhang Xianzong nodded as if he understood, then changed the subject.
"Master, I'm so outstanding, don't you intend to accept me as your disciple?"
Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. "I'll think about it some more!"
Seeing that Qin Feng did not refuse outright as before, Zhang Xianzong's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Master, don't worry, I will definitely perform better in the future."
Qin Feng glanced at Zhang Xianzong. "Stop helping people with feng shui and focus on learning the art of talismans."
"When you can create a talisman that can kill a Xuanjing cultivator, I will take you as my disciple!"
Zhang Xianzong's face lit up with joy, and he said confidently, "I won't let you down. At the latest, I will be able to create an attack talisman capable of killing a Xuan Realm expert within ten days."
Qin Feng glanced at Zhang Xianzong, and was about to retort when the doorbell suddenly rang.
Zhang Xianzong very consciously got up and went to open the door.
Upon opening the door and seeing the beautiful woman standing there, Zhang Xianzong's eyes flashed with amazement, and he thought to himself, "Master is truly blessed to have so many stunning beauties by his side!"
The visitor was Liu Ruyan.
Is Qin Feng home?
Liu Ruyan's expression was aloof, and her tone was quite indifferent.
"Here I am!"
Zhang Xianzong stepped aside and let Liu Ruyan come in.
In his view, a great beauty like Liu Ruyan would eventually become his master's wife, so he had to always maintain a respectful attitude towards her.
When Liu Ruyan saw Qin Feng sitting in the living room, she went straight to sit down next to him.
She didn't beat around the bush and stated the purpose of her trip directly.
"The Prefect's Office is holding an auction tomorrow, and one of the projects is the renovation of the old town. I would like to ask you to help me bid on this project."
"As long as you win the bid, I will return the money to you within a month at the latest, and pay you 10 billion in interest."
In fact, given her status, she didn't need to ask Qin Feng for help at all. It was just that because of the plan to lure the snake out of its hole, she couldn't use the Liu family's wealth.
Qin Feng was taken aback. "Isn't this project in Zhou Danian's hands?"
Two days ago, Zhou Danian had planned to recruit him, but he didn't agree at the time.
Liu Ruyan was also present at the time and deduced that Zhou Danian had been tricked.
It seems now that we really were scammed.
Liu Ruyan said, "He's been tricked!"
“I had someone investigate, and this project has always been located in the Prefectural Government Office. It was only at this investment promotion conference that they decided to put it up for auction.”
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at Liu Ruyan with a smile. "Why did you bid for this project?"
"Tell me the truth, and I'll help you!"
"If you're not going to talk, then please leave!"
Liu Ruyan hesitated for a moment before saying, "There are rumors that a giant ancient tomb from the Shang and Zhou dynasties is hidden beneath the old city."
"The reason why Mu Zhengfeng lost 10 billion yuan twenty years ago was because the discovery of an ancient tomb triggered a mechanism, which led to the mysterious deaths of many workers, and the Binhai Prefectural Government urgently ordered the company to stop operations."
"Although it's just a rumor, it's highly likely!"
"Because the major families in the capital have all set their sights on the old city, and have already sent people to investigate it both openly and secretly."
"The clues we have so far have confirmed the rumors that there is indeed a huge ancient tomb hidden beneath the old city."
Qin Feng's expression was uncertain. A giant ancient tomb? Could it be that a giant ancient tomb was hidden behind the bronze gate?
It was the bronze gate he saw in the underground cave after entering the Yin Sha Formation and using a simplified teleportation array.
Although he couldn't be sure where the simplified teleportation array had teleported him, it certainly wouldn't be far.
It is highly likely that it did not leave the old town area.
He pondered for a moment, then looked at Liu Ruyan with a flickering gaze and asked, "Approximately how much funding do I need to prepare to win the bid?"
Liu Ruyan was prepared and replied directly, "At most one hundred billion!"
“I know you don’t have that much available funds, so you can have Ye Qingcheng take out some of Fengqing Group’s high-quality assets to secure a bank loan!”
"I believe that lending out one or two hundred billion is not a problem at all."
Qin Feng's lips twitched violently. Damn it, 100 billion! Even if you bought the entire old city and turned it into a high-end business district, it wouldn't cost that much, right?
It seems that there must have been many participants in the auction, and they were all very powerful.
If it were him, he would never have spent so much money to bid on this project.
After all, even if there really is a giant ancient tomb underground in the old city, its value may not be 100 billion.
He suspected that Liu Ruyan hadn't told the whole truth, and that there must be something worth far more than 100 billion involved.
Or perhaps Liu Ruyan was also gambling, but the possibility of that is extremely slim.
"Miss Liu, it seems you're hiding something from me, aren't you?"
