Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints

Chapter 637: Chapter 260: Rewarding Quantum Chip Technology_2

However, to redeem it at this price, the Jiang Family needs to pay 44.625 billion, and after selling everything they have, they’ve only managed to gather 42 billion, leaving a shortfall of 2.625 billion.

The bank doesn’t care about this. They’ve taken the money directly, leaving the remaining 2.625 billion to be slowly made up by auctioning the Jiang Family’s ancestral home and other immovable properties.

Soon, the police and other departments issued an announcement to the public about the progress of the 30 billion gold fraud case.

In simple terms, there are two main points.

First, Jinling Phoenix Gold Ornaments has compensated 42 billion at the current price, and the remaining 2.625 billion will be repaid through subsequent property auctions. The impact of the case is already within controllable range and will not trigger systemic risks.

Second, the actual controller of Jinling Phoenix Gold Ornaments, Jiang Zhengtian, has been arrested, and all relevant personnel involved in the case have been detained in custody, awaiting trial.

With this, the Jiang Family, which has developed in Jinling City for decades, has been completely wiped out.

The Ning Family has benefited the most from the downfall of the Jiang Family.

Now, the Treasure Hunting Pavilion building is up for auction, and Ning Shaoqing has directly acquired it.

After completing the formalities, Ning Shaoqing called Yang Chen.

Ning Shaoqing: "Brother Chen, I’ve acquired the Treasure Hunting Pavilion! We can directly open our Gambling Stone Workshop here."

Yang Chen: "Haha... that’s great. Hai City is ready as well, I’ll have the goods sent over from Southern Myanmar, and both shops can open simultaneously on June 6th."

Ning Shaoqing: "Alright! Let’s prepare quickly, we’ll open on June 6th."

Yang Chen personally named the Gambling Stone Workshop as Star Pavilion. The shops in both Hai City and Jinling are 67% personally owned by him, with the remaining shares distributed among other partners.

No one in Jinling City opposes the opening of Star Pavilion, but it’s different in Hai City. Tang Chengbao is the first to stand out and oppose the opening of Star Pavilion.

Because of this, Tang Chengbao has arranged to meet with Yang Chen, Xue Yinong, and other shareholders of Star Pavilion for negotiations.

Tang Chengbao’s attitude is clear and determined, not allowing Yang Chen and the others to open Star Pavilion besides Mingcui Square’s Gambling Stone Workshop.

He even threatened that if Yang Chen and the others insisted on doing so, the Tang Family would retaliate against them at all costs.

Yang Chen’s attitude was equally determined, saying, "Mr. Tang, if you think the Tang Family can scare us, you are surely mistaken. I can tell you clearly that Star Pavilion will open as scheduled on June 6th. If the Tang Family dares to sabotage, we will retaliate against them at all costs."

Tang Chengbao sneered, "Fine! Since we can’t agree, let’s not talk. Let’s wait and see who laughs last."

With that, Tang Chengbao left angrily with his people.

Yang Chen got up, stretched lazily, and said with a smile to Xue Yinong and others, "Ignore him, the Tang Family wouldn’t dare to really sabotage."

Xue Yinong: "I’ve heard that recently the Tang Family’s old man has been transferring multiple industries to Tang Chengbao and Tang Chunlai, assigning them both legal representation and shares. Tang Chenghu’s position as the patriarch is on shaky grounds. Even if he isn’t eventually removed, he’ll become a general without an army, and even if he remains the patriarch, it won’t be of any use. Tang Chengbao might believe that soon he and his son will actually control the Tang Family, which is why he’s so arrogant."

Yang Chen: "I had long anticipated such an outcome. Tang Chenghu’s softness and indecisiveness make it hard to blame others."

Qiu Tian: "Brother Chen, should we gather overseas mercenaries to give Tang Chengbao and Tang Chunlai a warning?"

Yang Chen: "Not for now. The Tang Family has military connections behind them, let’s try not to provoke trouble. Unless absolutely necessary, do not use overseas mercenaries against the Tang Family. Alright, you all can leave, I have to go drive."

Everyone nodded, bidding farewell to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen’s Jianghuai car has been modified and now includes bulletproof, explosion-proof features, and ordinary steel bars can’t smash it, truly making it an iron fortress.

Around eleven o’clock, after dropping off a passenger, Yang Chen was about to grab another order when a middle-aged man hurriedly got into the car.

Passenger: "Brother, quickly take me to the high-speed rail station!"

Yang Chen: "I’m sorry, brother, this is a ride-hailing car, not a taxi. You have to order through the Bibi platform."

Passenger: "I’ll pay a hundred dollars to hire the car, let’s not go through the platform, alright?"

Yang Chen shook his head and said, "Sorry, that’s not possible! Without the platform, I’m operating a black car, which is illegal. I’m only driving to pass the time, I don’t want to break the law for this little money. Either you order through the platform, or you get off the car."

Passenger: "Why are you so inflexible? Fine, fine, I’ll order."

The passenger quickly opened the Bibi app to place an order, and based on the prioritization by distance, the platform assigned it to Yang Chen.

Only then did Yang Chen drive him to the high-speed rail station.

Not long after, the passenger’s phone rang.

He answered the call impatiently, saying, "Don’t call me now, damn it, I’ve already run away. If I stay on the scene, the construction unit will definitely hold me responsible for compensation. I’m leaving for now, after they pay the money, I’ll find a chance to return. I can slowly deal with them later, I won’t pay for sure. Rest assured, just say you were just operating the excavator for the construction company and didn’t intentionally damage the cable, they won’t make things difficult for you."

Excavator operator: "But they said they had already told you in advance that there was a national defense cable here, but you didn’t tell me! Now the construction company representative has clearly stated they won’t assume compensation responsibility and wants us, the contract workers, to bear the compensation. Now that you’ve run away, I’m finished! I’ve worked for you for half a year and only got paid ten thousand dollars. You’ve delayed my salary for so much, and now you want me to take the blame? That definitely won’t work!"
