Chapter 716: Chapter 716: Contempt

Jiang Fatso, who had just moved against his own nephew, had also noticed the scene and was alarmed to see these young masters taking the initiative to introduce themselves to one another. Without choice, his hand on his nephew became even heavier.

However, not everyone was as proactive as Tang Rong. There were a few who did not take Li Feng seriously, especially after the internet exposure; these people had also heard of Li Feng of the Century Group.

Feeling superior about their status, they naturally disdained to befriend Li Feng. As for their presence today, it was solely for the sake of profit.

"Jiang Fatso, come here and explain how you managed to provoke our young master Zhang."

Zhang Chang looked up. Not all of the attendees today were from Jin City; some were locals from Sea City, also wanting to get a piece of the Century Group. It wasn’t that Zhang Chang didn’t want to monopolize the deal, but splitting up and repackaging the Century Group involved these local players.

After all, Century Group was a Sea City enterprise, and their involvement was somewhat overstepping boundaries.

The one who spoke was Dong Xing, whose family had not only official backgrounds but also was part of the Lin Family, one of the eight major families. Although the Lin Family’s Zhongtian Group was not in the top ten groups, it was still a well-known group in Sea City with assets of at least a hundred billion.

This man was also the big shot among these local power players of Sea City and was quite a figure in his own right.

Upon hearing his name called, Jiang Fatso scurried over promptly: "Young Master Dong, the fault is entirely mine for the poor reception. My nephew was blind and failed to recognize Mount Tai, and even dared to challenge young master Zhang."

"This fool, I will surely beat him half to death to teach him a lesson," said Jiang Fatso, bowing and scraping without any attempt at defense.

"Oh," Dong Xing responded, "you are you, your nephew is your nephew. Naturally, he should face the consequences of troubling others," he said glancing at Jiang Zihao rolling on the ground.

"Zhang Chang, now that you’ve beaten him up, you should have let off steam by now, right? If not, you can personally take action. It’s his fault for provoking you, so he’d deserve it if you killed him. But we gathered here today to talk business, so let’s not get sidetracked by such trivial matters."

Dong Xing’s words were clearly in defense of Jiang Fatso, lending him support. Zhang Chang snorted, "Dong Xing, I don’t particularly care. After all, I’m not the main character today. Whether or not to forgive is not for me to say."

"However, if this had happened in Jin City, breaking a leg would be getting off lightly for not understanding the rules."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Dong Xing turned to Jiang Fatso: "Jiang Fatso, how did you offend Mr. Li Feng of Century? Are you not aware that he’s the Chairman of Century? You dare to neglect him?"

Jiang Fatso hurriedly explained.

"Young Master Dong, to be honest, I was unaware. When I arrived, I saw my nephew clashing with young master Zhang. As for the specific reasons, I’m not quite sure."

"If you’re not sure, then find someone who is clear about it to clarify," Dong Xing retorted.

Jiang Fatso knew that Dong Xing was backing him and quickly called someone. Instantly, someone stepped forward in the hall and began to recount the events.

After listening, Dong Xing curled his lip: "Hearing this, it sounds like personal business. What are you sticking your nose in for, Jiang Fatso? It’s none of your business."

Jiang Fatso, hearing this, quickly slapped his own face: "Yes, yes, it’s because of my nephew that I was confused."

Zhang Chang watched coldly as the two put on their act. He knew that these local heavyweights from Sea City were not pleased with the ones from Jin City, thinking they were poaching on their turf and stealing their interests.

"Mr. Li Feng, the rules of our establishment are what they are, and my people have caused offense. As an apology, I will have a gold membership card with 10 million prepared for you. You are welcome to spend it freely in our establishment."

"What do you think? Are you satisfied?"

"Jiang Fatso, who are you trying to slap in the face with this, offering 10 million to settle the matter? Do you think my brother lacks that 10 million?" Zhang Chang said with a cold look toward Jiang Fatso.

As soon as Zhang Chang’s voice faded, Dong Xing interjected: "Zhang Chang, you’re overthinking this. Jiang Fatso is sincerely apologizing. Why do you take it as an insult when it gets to you?"

While saying this, Dong Xing turned to look at Li Feng: "Li Feng, I am actually interested in hearing your thoughts. How do you plan to resolve this matter?"

"Oh, let me make it clear beforehand that we can’t intervene in your private affairs."

Dong Xing clearly looked down on Li Feng. If it wasn’t for the fact that Li Feng was planning to sell Century Group, which involved substantial interests, he wouldn’t even bother to consider Li Feng, no matter that he had become the Chairman of Century.

But he was just a puppet with an impressive title.

Li Feng glanced at Dong Xing who had spoken. By now he had a fairly good grasp of where everyone stood. Zhang Chang had previously interacted with Li Feng in Jin City and was supportive. A few other young masters from Jin City were indifferent toward Li Feng, purely there for profit.

Among the rest, Tang Dynasty’s Tang Rong and two others were somewhat enthusiastic, whereas the rest, led by Dong Xing as local powers of Sea City, looked down on Li Feng and only cared about getting a piece of the profit.

"Compensation isn’t necessary. It’s not needed," Li Feng straightforwardly rejected it.

Dong Xing squinted at Li Feng: "How so? Do you think the offer is too low? Otherwise, name your price."

The young masters behind Dong Xing all wore smug grins as they looked at Li Feng. If Li Feng was smart, he’d know his place and gladly accept what was offered, to put an end to the matter. If Li Feng was stubborn and kept refusing, it meant he was disrespecting them.

Disrespecting them, huh, that would just show that they were not on the same side and "there will be other days." They all belonged to Sea City, and there would be plenty of opportunities to "play."

Li Feng certainly understood Dong Xing’s insinuations as he glanced at him.

"Since Young Master Dong has put it that way, if I don’t ask for something, it seems as if I’m looking down on you," Li Feng said, turning to Jiang Fatso.

"Honestly speaking, what you’ve done has truly upset me. As for your membership card, I have no interest, especially considering that in the future, this establishment might see people I dislike coming and going."

"How about this instead? You sell me this club. Whatever you invested, I’ll pay double."

As soon as Li Feng spoke, not only was Jiang Fatso stunned, but the other young masters also burst into laughter.

Dong Xing looked at Li Feng with a cold smirk: "You want to buy it? I’m really not looking down on you, but do you have the capital for it?"

"Tsk, Chairman Li really talks big. The land and the building of this club aren’t that expensive; all in all, it’s probably just over thirty billion. No need for double. If you can pull out forty billion right now, I will sell you the club right away."
