NOVEL NEXT Chapter 169 Hehehe
"Oh?"
On the other end of the phone, Zhang Mengchuang's voice carried a playful tone, "So you're threatening me?"
"Just stating the facts."
"Fine," Zhang Mengchuang began, "since that's the case, you can go and tell the four great families of the Xijiang Provincial Government right now that I'm after you, and let the four great families within the Xijiang Province target our Zhang family."
"See if the four great families of the Xijiang Provincial Government will take action against our Zhang family for the sake of your four great families."
As Zhang Mengchuang spoke, he even had a hint of laughter in his voice, as if the words coming out of Yang Xing's mouth were a huge joke.
Yang Xing and the other three had ugly expressions on their faces.
Although they had not asked, they already had the answer in their hearts.
No!
Absolutely not!
It wasn't because the four great families of the Xijiang Provincial Government were afraid of the Zhang family, but because the four great families from Yun City were replaceable and expendable.
But not the Zhang family!
You see, the provincial governments and the great families within them all have various technical collaborations.
They cooperate and compete with each other.
It's complicated.
Generally speaking, family conflicts are more likely to arise within city families, but the great families of provincial governments are relatively more stable and unlikely to clash.
If any of the four great families from Yun City were gone, there would be others within Yun City to take over what the provincial government's families had left there.
But if they were to start a conflict with the Zhang family, those great families in the provincial government would undoubtedly suffer significant losses.
After thinking this through, they knew that they had lost in this meeting!
"Our Fang family is willing to pay one billion to compensate Master Wang for his emotional distress!" Fang Cunshan was the most straightforward, speaking directly.
"Our He family is willing to offer Master Wang one year's leasing rights to the second floor of Hechen Plaza."
Hechen Plaza is the largest square in Yun City with four floors. It includes various projects such as digital technology, apparel, food, amusement, and movies.
The He family not only owns some of these businesses but also leases them out to others for use.
However…
Even so, the second floor of Hechen Plaza was not enough to satisfy Zhang Mengchuang.
Zhang Mengchuang ridiculed, "He Guang, can't you learn from Fang Cunshan? He came up with a billion right away."
"Why be so stingy? Just offering the second floor of Hechen Plaza - how much value do you think that has? You should be clear in your own heart."
He Guang's face grew unpleasant.
On the side, Xia Qingxin then added, "Head of the He Family, you should know that your son has been targeting Wang Ye. Considering the prolonged loss he has caused my junior brother, you can't possibly think that this will just settle it, can you?"
I…
Upon hearing these words from Xia Qingxin, He Guang wanted to curse out loud.
He was aware of the situation.
But the key issue was that He Lei had never succeeded in his attacks against Wang Ye; instead, he had been continually failing.
Instead of harming Wang Ye, it was his own side that had lost a high-level assassin.
However, these words had to remain unspoken at this point; now he could only pinch his nose and take the blame for these issues.
He Guang's face was overcast as he pondered for a while before speaking, "Since that's the case, I will give the one-year leasing rights of Hechen Plaza to Wang Ye as compensation."
The Mei Family and Yang Family, the two major clans, ultimately also revealed their benefits.
"I hope that you can complete these procedures within three days. If they aren't completed after three days, I wouldn't mind personally bringing people to Yun City to ensure that these matters are handled."
After Zhang Mengchuang finished speaking this sentence, he then hung up the phone.
In the meeting room, Xia Qingxin and Wang Ye both stood up. Wang Ye looked towards Yang Xing and the other three, and asked the other four, "Is there anything else? If not, then we will take our leave first?"
None of the four of Yang Xing's group responded.
They simply didn't want to deal with Wang Ye at all right now!
Seeing that Yang Xing and the others were silent, Wang Ye laughed, turned around, and left the meeting room with Xia Qingxin.
The door of the meeting room had just been closed by the departing Wang Ye and Xia Qingxin.
Bang!
Filled with anger, Yang Xing slammed the teacup on the table onto the floor, shattering the ceramic cup into pieces.
Mei Yu turned to Yang Xing, Fang Cunshan, and He Guang, and asked the three, "Didn't you say that you had already investigated and found out that Wang Ye had no background?"
He Guang glanced at Mei Yu with annoyance, "That was our investigation, but didn't the Mei Family investigate as well? Since you want to take advantage, you should be prepared to pay the price!"
Having just been outplayed by Wang Ye, He Guang spoke curtly and without the least bit of courtesy.
And this very question was swirling in the hearts of all four people.
Wasn't Wang Ye supposed to have no background?
How did he suddenly become connected with Zhang Mengchuang?
And he even made Zhang Mengchuang speak out like that.
To see Wang Ye was to see Zhang Mengchuang.
This phrase was not something that could be said about just anyone.
"Investigate! I must investigate this thoroughly!" Yang Xing nearly roared out, collapsing with rage.
"Moreover, why did our phones have no signal, yet Wang Ye's phone could receive calls?" Fang Cunshan realized this problem.
Outside.
Upon hearing the sound of Yang Xing smashing things and his bellowing coming from inside, Wang Ye and Xia Qingxin exchanged a look, both quite pleased in their eyes.
At that moment, several people hurried toward the meeting room.
Xia Qingxin felt even more smug as she saw these people rushing into the meeting room.
She knew exactly why these people were hurrying toward the meeting room.
It seemed as if Wang Ye had remembered something as he turned his handsome face toward Xia Qingxin, "Big Sister, why did you still have me maintain that kind of image in the meeting room?"
Although Wang Ye had been silent and not very proactive today, he had still overturned the situation.
Yet he was still curious.
Xia Qingxin took the pen from her jacket's front pocket. At that point, the surveillance feed from her pocket had already been cut off by Li Ying, which meant that Xia Qingxin and Wang Ye could now act a bit more unrestrainedly in their subsequent performance.
"Do you know what the work of your Sister Li Ying is?"
"She has a job?" Wang Ye looked at Xia Qingxin curiously, as Li Ying didn't have a job at all!
"Of course," Xia Qingxin said cheerfully, extending her finger and poking Wang Ye's forehead, "Before, it was your Sister Li Ying who kept a low profile. She didn't speak, but today, I forced her to reveal it, hehehe."
