Rustic Charm: The Doctor Immortal
Chapter 248

Chapter 248: 248

Zhao Qiqiang had always been arrogant, speaking with a condescending tone.

Zhang Heng wasn’t one to be easily intimidated. After running the market for years, his partners treated him like an Old Buddha. When had he ever been subjected to such insolence?

Zhang Heng’s face darkened. "Zhao Qiqiang, I hope you can calm down before speaking to me."

"Secretary, show them out!"

Zhang Heng shouted, and the young secretary entered from outside, looking awkwardly at Zhao Qiqiang and his mother. "Our President Zhang is very busy. If you need an appointment, please leave!"

"Appointment?"

In an instant, Zhao Qiqiang erupted in fury. Bang! He slammed his palm on Zhang Heng’s desk, shouting, "Zhang Heng, when you took my money, where was the appointment? Now you talk about an appointment?"

"Get out!"

Zhang Heng was livid, his expression tense as he looked around. He shouted furiously, "I see your Zhao Family has gotten used to lawlessness. Daring to cause a scene here at Hengda? In front of our group, your Zhao Family is nothing. Keep talking and I have plenty of ways to make you regret it!"

"Call security, immediately, call security!"

Zhang Heng roared towards the door.

The tension in the office was palpable. Qin Lan looked helpless, who could have predicted it would end like this?

Veins bulged on Zhao Qiqiang’s forehead in anger. First, Chen Dashan disgusted him, and he came here seeking a confrontation with Zhang Heng, who turned his back on him. These dogs should all die!

In less than two minutes, a dozen professional bodyguards from Hengda arrived, treating Zhao Qiqiang and his mother as troublemakers and escorted them out.

Outside the Hengda Group building.

Zhao Qiqiang glared venomously at the Hengda tower, sitting in his car with a violent expression.

"Just let Chen Dashan off like that?"

Zhao Qiqiang wasn’t willing. He punched the back of the front seat. Seeing Chen Dashan’s growing influence, how could Zhao Qiqiang not be anxious?

Next to him, Qin Lan also looked troubled. She frowned, looking out the window. "We can’t touch Zhang Heng. If we reveal our bribery, it will tarnish the Zhao Family and Zhao Ding Group’s reputations. We have to swallow this loss."

She had privately given Zhang Heng 3 million to prevent Chen Dashan from being selected, aiming to secure an internal quota for the Zhao Family, but ended up losing everything.

"As for Chen Dashan, since he got the project, let’s cause trouble from there. He’ll find it hard to manage. What’s not his, he won’t be able to handle!"

Qin Lan’s eyes were sinister. The mother and son exchanged a cold, knowing smile.

Working behind the scenes to cause some problems in Furong County was easier and more reliable than bribing Zhang Heng!

...

On the other side.

When Chen Dashan’s company won the bid, several women found out quickly and hurried to his villa to celebrate.

"Dashan, have you opened the wine?"

Xue Mengyu, wearing an apron, was busy with Zhou Hui in the kitchen. Zhao Jiayao and Xu Ruyan were helping, while Zhang Xuewen, Qin Xuan, and Qi Shuzhu were chatting in the living room, cutting fruit. The atmosphere was harmonious. Chen Dashan lay on the couch, watching the bustling women.

With the laughter around him, he felt deeply content.

He said lazily, "Do I still need to do such a small task?"

"I am the real hero here. When the Film and Television City project starts making money, I’ll make sure you all live a luxurious life!"

"Ugh..."

Qi Shuzhu made a face, sticking out her tongue at Chen Dashan. "Who wants you to lead? Besides, can you even handle a successful business with your daily unseriousness?"

"Hahaha..."

Zhang Xuewen covered her mouth, laughing.

Chen Dashan was speechless. Xu Ruyan quickly stepped forward, opening the wine bottle with a corkscrew, and gently said to everyone, "Let me do it. Today is a happy day. Don’t argue. I am good at opening wine."

"Am I late?"

Ye Jiping’s laughter came from outside. Everyone looked up to see a tall woman in a dark-patterned black cheongsam, with a stunning figure and a bright smile as she walked in with a gift box. Zhang Xuewen quickly greeted her, "Sister Ping, you’ve arrived?"

Ye Jiping’s eyes scanned the room, finally landing on Chen Dashan. "With this project, Dashan, your value is skyrocketing. Now, who in Furong County doesn’t know you? The future richest man in Furong County, no one else but you."

Chen Dashan smiled. "Those are just titles. I just hope every day is like today."

"By the way, should we invite a few celebrities for the Film and Television City’s opening? I have some connections."

Ye Jiping suggested as she set down the gift box and changed her shoes by the shoe cabinet.

Qi Shuzhu’s eyes lit up. "Great idea! In this small place like Furong County, inviting some well-known celebrities would cause a sensation. It would promote the Film and Television City and boost Dashan’s reputation. It would make doing business easier and discourage others from messing with him."

The Film and Television City was a tourism project. Some publicity could attract residents from nearby towns.

"I think it’s a great idea. Leave it to you!"

Chen Dashan looked at Ye Jiping appreciatively. The group continued celebrating enthusiastically. In the afternoon, Chen Dashan decided to visit the Film and Television City, his biggest investment to date, so he was very attentive.

...

In the afternoon, Chen Dashan took Han Yifei and Xu Ruyan to the Film and Television City for a look.

Xu Ruyan was temporarily the main person in charge of this project, and Han Yifei was the legal advisor. They needed to handle the documents and contracts. Apart from Zhou Hui, all the other women wanted to come, but the car couldn’t fit everyone. The chatter would be unbearable.

Chen Dashan only took those related to work.

This place was on the outskirts of Furong County, close to the city center, with a good location. The road was wide, making parking and visiting convenient.

The Film and Television City was invested and built by Hengda Group, but all the shops inside were contracted to Chen Dashan. Anyone wanting to set up shop had to get his approval. Chen Dashan was like a sub-landlord, giving Hengda Group thirty percent of the annual profits.

"This place is well-built!"

As soon as they got out of the car, Han Yifei took off her sunglasses and started looking around, exclaiming.

Chen Dashan said, "According to the promotional materials, there are the Tang Palace, Han Palace, the Ming and Qing Palaces, even Shanghai, and a beautiful ancient style martial arts world. Hengda invested billions in this project, it should be impressive!"

The three of them curiously wandered around.

"These shops should be ours, right?"

Han Yifei asked, pointing to a row of stores below the ancient city. Chen Dashan nodded, then followed Han Yifei’s finger. His brows furrowed.

At that moment, some people were actually decorating in the shops, with hammering noises coming from inside.

What was going on?
