Chapter 775: Chapter 775: Meeting of the Four Families

"Young Master, you’ve found the girl you were looking for..."

Li Jingwei immediately waved his hand to cut off his subordinate’s words, "Prepare the car, and have them ready my plane at the airport, we’re going to Sea City."

With that, Li Jingwei turned and walked over to the beauty he had spotted earlier, "Beauty, would you like to join me on a spontaneous trip?"

Sea City.

Li Jingwei stepped off his private plane and was greeted with several luxury cars worth millions waiting in the airport. Escorted by his bodyguards, he got into a car and drove out of the airport and into the city.

A top-tier club.

"Cui Boyu, I’m actually surprised you would invite me for a drink," Li Jingwei said upon seeing Cui Boyu, a cold smile playing on his lips. Their relationship was far from amiable—in fact, they could be considered rivals.

But Cui Boyu inviting him for a drink was an unprecedented event, so no matter the reason, Li Jingwei was compelled to attend.

"So, what is it? Are you looking to ask me for a favor, or have you decided to surrender and call me ’brother’, so I can forgive and forget?"

Cui Boyu looked at the arrogant Li Jingwei with disdain; he couldn’t stand Li Jingwei’s crude, nouveau-riche manner, not at all befitting a member of an elite family.

If Cui Boyu didn’t need this guy, he wouldn’t even bother to make the call.

"Heh, Li Jingwei, don’t get too cocky. I didn’t call you to bow down; I’ve got a lucrative deal on my hands, too big for me to handle alone, and this time I haven’t just approached you."

"Oh?"

Li Jingwei looked up at Cui Boyu, "You’ve got a good deal and you call me, Cui Boyu? Seems like your skin’s gotten thicker lately, lying without batting an eye."

"Hmph, believe it or not, that’s your choice. If you don’t trust me, feel free to leave; I’m not begging you."

"Cui Boyu."

"Li Jingwei." The newcomer frowned upon seeing Li Jingwei.

Li Jingwei turned to see a man in his thirties, genteel, walking towards them in casual suit and meticulously chosen attire, complete with gold-rimmed glasses on his nose.

"Lu Qi, you’re here too. How’s your sister doing?" Li Jingwei walked up quite casually.

"Scram, she’s my sister."

"Tsk, hearing you cuss with such elegance, it’s really something," Li Jingwei retorted unbothered, knowing this guy had a sister who was a rare beauty, and who knows, this guy might even end up being his brother-in-law.

Cui Boyu glanced at the annoying Li Jingwei—if he didn’t need him to deal with another pain in the neck, he wouldn’t have called him over.

"Everyone’s here, let’s go in."

Lu Qi didn’t bother responding to Li Jingwei, but still gave Cui Boyu enough face to move into the private room first.

"Zheng Ren."

As Lu Qi entered the private room, he saw Zheng Ren of the Zheng Family, who had arrived earlier. They knew each other, and Zheng Ren nodded in acknowledgment.

They seated themselves according to their stature.

At the large dining table, only four sat. The waiter opened a thirty-year-old bottle of wine, and after pouring for everyone, Cui Boyu gestured for the waiter to leave.

"Cui Boyu, what are you playing at? Just spit it out, otherwise I won’t be able to drink your liquor."

Li Jingwei looked at the bottle of wine without any intention of giving Cui Boyu face and spoke frankly.

Cui Boyu, of course, noticed the three pairs of eyes on him and smiled, "It seems I must clarify, otherwise today’s wine session won’t happen."

"Well then, let’s get straight to the point."

"I’ve called the three of you here because there is a great business deal to be had. You’ve all heard of the top ten corporations in Sea City, haven’t you?"

Cui Boyu looked toward the three men.

"Heh, who doesn’t know about that? The top ten corporations of Sea City are recognized as the ten strongest comprehensive corporations. These ten cover over a hundred different industries, from heavy industry to the IT electronics industry, with each corporation boasting assets worth tens of trillions."

"Those ten represent ten trillion, comparable to an entire European nation. They are truly rich and powerful, and behind these top ten corporations, there stand numerous top-class wealthy families with immense strength and massive influence."

"Cui Boyu, you’re not thinking of targeting these top ten corporations, are you? Do you really have the guts?" Li Jingwei mocked outright.

Zheng Ren and Lu Qi both turned their eyes to Cui Boyu, waiting for him to continue.

"Heh, I do indeed have the guts. However, I fear I might bite off more than I can chew, which is exactly why I’ve called you over. If our families join forces, perhaps we can swallow a piece of this fat meat."

Cui Boyu did not beat around the bush and spoke directly.

"Oh!"

Zheng Ren showed a bit of interest, while Lu Qi frowned, "Cui Boyu, the target you want to go after isn’t Century Group, is it?"

"That’s right, it is Century Group."

"Century Group?"

Li Jingwei knitted his brows, but Cui Boyu paid no attention to him and said, "Century Group has already initiated their divestment plan. In a short while, the entire Century Group will become private, and its current chairman, Li Feng, is incapable of controlling this vast group. Therefore, he’s planning to split and sell off the major companies and industries under Century Group’s banner."

"I’ve heard some news reports, could it really be true?"

Zheng Ren said.

After all, this was one of Sea City’s top ten, not a position you could simply claim or sell as you pleased.

Cui Boyu nodded, "The news is absolutely true. I have a cousin who’s a young master of the Lv Family in Jin City. He said that recently Li Feng visited Jin City, looking to make contact with some of the powerful local families."

"Now, many family representatives from Jin City have arrived, all eyeing this juicy slice, each wanting to cut out the largest piece of cake for themselves. So Century Group has no choice but to sell. Everyone is sharpening their knives; do you think Century Group’s swift move to divest is for no reason? Time is short, there isn’t much left."

Lu Qi furrowed his brows, "Cui Boyu, if what you say is true and many people are watching, getting involved won’t be that easy, will it?"

"Mm."

Zheng Ren nodded, knowing things weren’t that simple; after all, they were just heirs to their families, not the heads with full access to resources.

"Of course it won’t be easy, but it’s not impossible. Don’t forget, the people we represent are seven families spanning five surnames, that is our greatest reliance. As long as we make our stance clear, wouldn’t others show a little respect for our four families?"

"Besides, it’s not necessary for us to step forward personally. The Lv Family could represent us while we provide support from behind. As for the distribution of spoils afterward, the profits would be split evenly among the five families."

"With the authenticity of our seven families and five surnames, are we afraid of not being able to slice off the largest piece of cake? This is an opportunity worth at least hundreds of billions."

Cui Boyu enticed.

"The authentic seven families and five surnames, but why only mention the Li, Cui, Zheng, and Lu families? Cui Boyu, have you forgotten about the Wang Family?"

Li Jingwei asked with a frown, his robust nature not implying a lack of intelligence.

"The Wang Family has already moved ahead of us. If we don’t unite, I fear we won’t even get a sip of the soup."

"Oh?"

"The Wang and Li families have already joined hands. Of course, the Li I’m referring to is another family. This Li Feng is merely a puppet put forward by them."
