Chapter 186 - 186 186 The Exorbitant Land Deal

186: Chapter 186 The Exorbitant Land Deal 186: Chapter 186 The Exorbitant Land Deal Upon hearing that Ding Xinglong had gone mad, Xiang Yu was neither surprised nor did he feel any pity for him; he simply put the matter out of his mind.

They arrived at Yi Jing Real Estate exactly when Wu Haotian was rushing out the door.

When Wu Haotian saw Xiang Yu, he grabbed him as if he had seen a lifeline and said, “Today, Boss Ouyang is set to determine the ownership of the land.

Come with me.”

Clearly, Wu Haotian was anxious.

The project had been under negotiation for a long time, and the fact that Ouyang Ke was only now deciding on the ownership showed how seriously he valued this piece of land.

After listening, Xiang Yu nodded, then got into Wu Haotian’s car, with Tie Zhuzi following behind.

“What’s the rush?” Xiang Yu asked Wu Haotian.

“I don’t know either.

Boss Ouyang made a sudden decision and told us to go have a look,” Wu Haotian replied.

They stopped in front of a tall building just as Wu Haotian’s competitor, Zhang Lei, also happened to arrive.

Both men snorted coldly upon encountering each other.

“Mr.

Wu, are you planning to back out?” Zhang Lei sneered.

Wu Haotian, not giving an inch, retorted, “Today, I am determined to secure this land.

If Mr.

Zhang really wants to compete with me, then don’t blame me, Wu Haotian, for being ruthless.”

“What’s that, you’re threatening me?

I, Zhang Lei, have never been threatened in my life.

Do you think I was raised to be intimidated?” Zhang Lei snorted coldly, then prepared to head upstairs with the person behind him.

It was then that he suddenly noticed Long Wu behind Xiang Yu, his eyes narrowing at the sight.

As a big shot in real estate, he had seen plenty of beautiful women, but he had never encountered anyone with Long Wu’s aura.

He was momentarily spellbound.

He silently planned to make her his after the successful bid.

Although Xiang Yu was also standing there, Zhang Lei outright ignored him.

He had given Xiang Yu half a million, and Xiang Yu had agreed to hold Wu Haotian back.

However, throughout this time, Xiang Yu had done nothing, which irritated Zhang Lei.

Furthermore, he had heard that Xiang Yu had also accepted money from Wu Haotian, which infuriated him.

In Zhang Lei’s eyes, Xiang Yu was just a minor character; his presence or absence hardly mattered.

But since half a million could get rid of him, it was worth it.

However, the half a million given to Xiang Yu had been fruitless, like water thrown away.

Now that Xiang Yu’s girlfriend was so beautiful, Zhang Lei had a new thought.

If he could steal her away, then they would be even.

Of course, Wu Haotian noticed the greed in Zhang Lei’s eyes and couldn’t help but feel secretly relieved.

Others might not know Xiang Yu, but Wu Haotian knew him best.

Anyone who underestimated him was courting death.

“Let’s go upstairs as well,” Wu Haotian said, then took the lead going up.

They entered a small conference room.

Boss Ouyang Ke hadn’t arrived yet; only the few of them were there.

Zhang Lei’s gaze kept drifting over to Long Wu.

Long Wu, of course, noticed Zhang Lei’s lecherous look.

She approached him directly and said with a cold stare, “Why are you peering around with those thieving eyes?”

Long Wu was not like other girls.

She had always been adventuring with her older brothers, had her share of tough experiences in society, and had even witnessed killing, so she was naturally not afraid of Zhang Lei.

Zhang Lei hadn’t expected Long Wu to confront him.

He then replied with a warm smile, “Miss, you are lovely.

You might have heard of me.

My name is Zhang Lei, I work in real estate…”

“I’ve never heard that name before,” Long Wu said icily, “and if you dare peek at me again, I’ll gouge your eyes out.” She finished speaking and went back to sit behind Xiang Yu.

Zhang Lei was so angry he could only grind his teeth.

He had never been humiliated like this.

Ever since he assumed his position, he had his pick of beautiful women—and they were the kind who threw themselves at him.

He had never imagined that one day he’d be ruthlessly threatened by one.

“Just wait, I’ll deal with you sooner or later.

I’ll make you kneel before me and show you what a real man is,” Zhang Lei bit his teeth angrily and then gave Xiang Yu another fierce look.

But Xiang Yu didn’t even glance at him.

He calmly continued eating peanuts, and in the quiet meeting room, the only sound was the cracking of shells.

Wu Haotian watched from the side, delighted in his heart.

Zhang Lei picked the wrong person to mess with, getting into trouble with Xiang Yu’s woman—that should be enough for him.

Just then, Ouyang Ke walked in with two others, laughing as he said, “Sorry for being late, got held up by some matters.”

Upon his arrival, Wu Haotian and Zhang Lei both quickly stood up, exchanging pleasantries.

However, Xiang Yu acted as if he hadn’t seen him, continuing to eat as if Ouyang Ke didn’t exist.

Seeing Xiang Yu, Ouyang Ke’s eyes flashed coldly, but he didn’t lose his temper.

Instead, he said to Xiang Yu, “I don’t recall inviting you, boss.”

It was then that Xiang Yu looked up with an innocent expression and said, “That’s right, Boss Ouyang, I’m here to bid as well.

I figured I’m a businessman too.

Last time I told you I wanted to go into business, so I set up a stall selling Roujiamo, and the business isn’t bad…”

“Enough,” Ouyang Ke quickly raised his hand to stop Xiang Yu.

If he let him continue, who knows what he would ramble about.

Since Xiang Yu had already come, let him sit there.

As long as he didn’t interfere with his negotiations, there wouldn’t be a problem.

Ouyang Ke couldn’t be bothered to pay further attention to Xiang Yu.

To him, Xiang Yu was just a thug and a rogue, someone he could crush with a single word.

However, he considered himself too noble to stoop to fighting with Xiang Yu.

“Gentlemen, the reason I’ve called you here is to talk about this piece of land.

Today I’ve decided to sell it.

We previously talked about one billion, but now a friend has already offered ten billion.

I’ve called you two to inform you about it.

Can either of you top that offer?” Ouyang Ke looked at them, somewhat smugly.

“Ten billion?” Wu Haotian and Zhang Lei both took in a sharp breath simultaneously.

The land was valuable, but it surely couldn’t warrant such a price.

They exchanged glances, obviously surprised.

Xiang Yu had been listening while eating peanuts, but upon hearing the price of ten billion, he paused, then looked at Ouyang Ke with suspicion.

Ouyang’s face, however, was full of pride, showing no sign of deceit.

Considering the situation had reached this point, there was no way he could still be lying and trying to deceive them both.

It seemed that the ten billion offer was genuine.

“Boss Ouyang, you’re not joking, right?

Ten billion?

How is that possible?

He must be a fool,” Zhang Lei declared, full of disbelief.

Whereas Wu Haotian sat there somewhat dazed.

He didn’t doubt what Ouyang Ke said.

Clearly, even though the price was shocking to him, it was still within his threshold of belief.

“If neither of you can make a better offer, then I can only express my regret.

We’re all businessmen here, so let’s remain friends in the future,” Ouyang Ke said, laughing.

(I’ve seen complaints about slow updates, so let me explain.

Writing this book is done in my spare time, after work.

Sometimes it takes two hours of brainstorming and I don’t get a chapter done.

I’m typically writing late into the night due to overtime, so please be understanding.

I’ll try to update more frequently…)
