Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Undermining the Qin Family’s Foundation_1
Eight hundred migrant workers were brought into Haiyun Grand Hotel and temporarily settled there.
After bustling about all night, Qin Feng was also tired.
Seeing him asleep in the passenger seat, Xue Xiaochan, fearful that he might catch a cold, gently draped her coat over him.
Meanwhile.
As soon as he was discharged from Yoshida Hospital, Jian Shichao went straight to the Star Moon Club.
Jian Shichao’s visit immediately made Lu Zhengxiong feel somewhat uneasy.
He hurried over with a smile plastered on his face and greeted him warmly, "Mr. Jian, welcome, welcome! I’ll quickly summon the new girls for you—pretty and still in university, oh, so fresh!"
"I’m not here for girls today. I’m here to ask you whether you’ve taken care of the matter with Haiyun Group. How come I heard Haiyun Group is still in Xue Xiaochan’s hands?"
"Don’t worry, Mr. Jian, I was just about to report to you. Regarding Haiyun Group, I have a new idea. If we do this, we can gain even more."
"A new idea? What new idea? Don’t beat around the bush, just tell me!"
"After securing the land at Moon Lake, Haiyun Group put all its assets into the Moon Lake project. If the Moon Lake project fails, Haiyun Group will go bankrupt, and the entire Xue Family will be ruined. So, we don’t need to rush to take over Haiyun Group. After Xue Xiaochan mobilizes the Xue Family’s resources to get the Moon Lake project off the ground, we’ll step in with the share transfer agreement to pick the ripe fruits."
"That sounds good. But when the time comes, will the fruits be that easy to pick?"
"Rest assured, Mr. Jian, the fruit will definitely be pickable. Because I’ve laid some groundwork and prepared a fallback."
"Laid some groundwork? What groundwork? What fallback have you prepared?"
"The night we signed the agreement, I arranged several beautiful girls for Xue Yuhang. One of them was infected with HIV. Now, Xue Yuhang has been infected too. There’s no cure for HIV, except for the drugs at Yoshida Hospital. If Xue Yuhang wants to cure his HIV, he must come to us. Once the Moon Lake project is nearly developed, we’ll tell Xue Yuhang to take Haiyun Group back from Xue Xiaochan’s hands. Then, we’ll snatch it from him—it’s practically a sure thing."
"We can wait on Haiyun Group, but Xue Xiaochan, you have three days to get her into my bed!"
"Don’t worry, Mr. Jian, I will make it happen."
...
The next day, afternoon.
Xue Xiaochan was busying in the office when Qin Feng suddenly arrived.
"Oh! Woken up, huh? Thought you might sleep until it was dark, you bastard."
When she left in the morning, Qin Feng was still sound asleep, so Xue Xiaochan didn’t bother with him.
Normally, even if he overslept, he would show up at the office by noon to bother her. Today, it was already half-past four in the afternoon when the bastard arrived.
Qin Feng handed a folder to Xue Xiaochan.
"Dear Ms. Xue, please have a look!"
"What’s this?"
Xue Xiaochan asked curiously, then opened it.
"The Moon Lake project plan, you made this?"
"Yeah!"
"I was wondering why you didn’t come to the office to bother me, and it turns out you were busy with this?"
Xue Xiaochan picked up the plan, and read it very seriously.
After finishing it, she said, "The plan you’ve written does look professional. However, it definitely can’t be used directly. But, you can talk to me about your thoughts, why would you plan it this way? In your plan, you want to develop Moon Lake into an industrial cluster based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, covering the cultivation of medicinal herbs, pharmaceutical research and development, Chinese medicine hospitals, and even a Chinese medicine university, as well as rehabilitation bases, health tourism and the like."
"Because I don’t understand anything else! I only know Chinese medicine."
"You really are honest."
"In front of my wife, I’ve always been honest. I wouldn’t tell a lie, not even a single word. The land at Moon Lake, where fierce ghosts gather and sorrowful spirits swarm, has been steeped in Yin energy three feet into the ground. It’s impossible to disperse the Yin energy there. Therefore, using that place to build a high-end shopping center, develop real estate, or create an ordinary tourist attraction is not realistic.
But precisely because Yin energy is concentrated there, the area around Moon Lake is especially suitable for growing some medicinal herbs and for building pharmaceutical factories. We can produce special medicines there to treat incurable diseases like leukemia and cancer. Not only can we make quite a bit of money, but we can also vindicate Chinese medicine. Let the secret recipes passed down by our ancestors and the medical skills of Dragon Country be widely promoted and benefit all sentient beings!"
"Fine! We’ll do it your way!"
Xue Xiaochan agreed immediately without a second thought.
"You agree so readily, aren’t you afraid I’ll trick you?"
"If you dare trick me, I’ll beat you to death!"
Xue Xiaochan cursed playfully and then gave Qin Feng a little hit as a lesson.
"Oh, right!"
Qin Feng suddenly remembered something and said, "Now that you’ve taken over Haiyun Group again, wife, how are things at Shencao Ji?"
"Ran Jie is in charge of Shencao Ji now. She’s so busy every day that her head is spinning. Although the company is operating normally, I feel like she is somewhat overwhelmed. After all, she has never been in charge by herself before."
"Shencao Ji will keep growing, and there will be more things to deal with in the future. It’s not a long-term plan to let Ran Jie struggle on her own there. So, wife, you desperately need a top talent to help you!"
"A top talent? How about you go?"
Xue Xiaochan trusted Qin Feng’s abilities, knowing that if he was willing to go and let Ran Jie assist him, she wouldn’t have to worry about Shencao Ji anymore.
"I’m not going. Ever since I married you, I’ve made up my mind to live off my wife for the rest of my life. Going to Shencao Ji to be the general manager? Wouldn’t that mean working 996? I’d work myself to death, and then if you remarried, wouldn’t that mean I just made it easy for some other guy?"
"Get lost! You dog, still talking about living off your wife?"
"If my wife won’t let me live off her, I’ll go mooch off another woman."
"If you dare to mooch off another woman, I’ll rip your mouth apart!"
"Then will you let me live off you?"
"I won’t let you starve!" Xue Xiaochan said, exasperatedly.
Even though she despised men who lived off women in her heart, she knew that Qin Feng wasn’t one of them; he was just all talk.
"Who’s the top talent you want me to find? Don’t tell me it’s Yu Keqing?"
"Wife, you really know me like the back of your hand! You guessed it right away."
"Get lost!" Xue Xiaochan rolled her eyes at Qin Feng and said, "Yu Keqing’s ability is, of course, beyond doubt. But she’s the president of Huanmei Group, a member of the Qin family. It’s impossible for you to poach someone from the Qin family. And even if you could, it would provoke retaliation from them. For the Qin family, poaching is the least tolerable offense."
"I poach on the basis of ability, even if the Qin family can’t tolerate it, they’ll have to endure it! If they feel unjust, let them poach her back, as long as they’ve got the capability."
