Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Dong Yong wished he could kill He Yuzhu, but first he had to establish himself in Hong Kong. Over the years, in the eyes of these families in Hong Kong, he was just a rich fool who was only half-witted in business.

Don't be fooled by their self-proclaimed status as big spenders. In reality, these people look down on him, always thinking he's a country bumpkin from China. Isn't that because they don't have any businesses of their own?
If it weren't for Longteng Security, I would have been completely devoured by these people long ago. Now, the long-awaited opportunity has finally arrived. The Wu family was already struggling because of Wu Jing's outrageous actions. Under such circumstances, this kid even squandered more than ten million yuan of working capital just to spite Wu, making the already difficult situation even worse. Such a good opportunity is right in front of me. If I can't seize it, what am I supposed to do?

At such a critical moment, instead of finding a way to boost Wu's stock and help the company overcome the crisis, Wu Jing is focusing on He Yuzhu. I know you're vindictive, but not to this extent, right?

"Dong Yong, stop talking nonsense. We've suffered such a huge loss at the hands of this country bumpkin, and we're just going to watch this kid successfully start a company. How am I supposed to live with myself? You give me 500,000, I'll give you 500,000. Even if we can't stop him, we'll make sure this kid spends more money. How about it?"

Wu Jing had no idea about Dong Yong's cunning schemes; he only had eyes for He Yuzhu and wanted to make this bumpkin who had made him lose face pay the price. He dared not make any moves at the Huo family banquet, otherwise he would be disgracing the Huo family.
Now, he can't care about all that. Anyway, it's impossible for He Yuzhu to buy an office building. If it weren't for the fact that he doesn't know what kind of company this guy runs and is trying to create obstacles in the procedures, Wu Jing is going to completely blacklist He Yuzhu and make him slink back to China!
"Young Master Wu, as you know, I've bought a lot of other stocks, and the rest of the money has been invested in Wu's Group. Where would I get so much money left? If you ask me, let's just forget about it. It's not worth getting angry with He Yuzhu!"

Dong Yong curled his lip. Good heavens, you really dare to say that. Fifty thousand is no small amount. How much liquid capital does your Wu family have? Besides, fifty thousand can buy a lot of Wu's stocks. Why would you have the mind to fight He Yuzhu?
"Get lost! This is what Young Master Li ordered. Are you sure you don't want to participate? Dong Yong, haven't you always wanted to enter Hong Kong's high society? As long as Young Master Li is happy, is high society still just a dream?"

Wu Jing never expected that he would be in such a difficult situation for 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. It was all caused by He Yuzhu. However, if it weren't for the fact that this kid had spent a lot of money to hire bodyguards from Longteng and had mysterious documents from Shenzhou, there would have been many ways to kill He Yuzhu. Why did he need to go through all this trouble?
"Young Master Wu, I..."

Dong Yong was tempted. Li Shao's status in Hong Kong was similar to his own in Beijing. Unfortunately... to be honest, Wu Jing really tempted him. Li Shao was the heir to one of the four major Chinese families in Hong Kong.

This person's influence is far greater than Wu Jing's. If this person supports him, then after he takes over Wu's company, he won't have to worry about anyone else.

At least, what makes the Wu family so extraordinary is not its assets, nor the so-called Wu Jing, but its key position in the Li family's industrial chain, which is the lifeline of the Wu family.
In other words, taking down the Wu family is only the first step. The main goal is to gain the Li family's approval. Otherwise, taking down the Wu family won't be of much use and may even bring a heavy burden!
"Young Master Wu, I can support 500,000, but after you acquire the office building, you must hand it over to me for handling. As for the money, I can only refund 50% of the value of the office building!"

Dong Yong's meaning is simple: after acquiring the office building, he wants it, and the money returned is half the value of the office building, with the loss shared by both of them. Otherwise, he won't participate. You can't let him take the limelight while he's the sucker, right? It's not reasonable at its core, is it?
"Sure, as long as He Yuzhu suffers a crushing defeat on the battlefield, some losses are acceptable. The key is to satisfy Young Master Li!"

Showing off is secondary; Wu Jing only wants to please Li Shao. Otherwise, the Wu family will be beyond saving. Judging from the old man's words, the Li family seems to be willing to give up on the Wu family. How can this be allowed?

"Alright, shall we go take a look?" Does Dong Yong hate He Yuzhu? Of course he does. Although the Dong family's miserable departure from the capital wasn't primarily due to He Yuzhu, it must be said that He Yuzhu acted as a catalyst!
If it weren't for He Yuzhu, perhaps he wouldn't have lost so much working capital, and the Dong family might not have been in such a sorry state. Besides, given his current situation, he couldn't afford to offend those people in the capital. Only He Yuzhu was somewhat manageable. Therefore, all of Dong Yong's hatred was transferred to He Yuzhu.
Forget about being reasonable or unreasonable. Many things in this world are not a matter of being reasonable or unreasonable. The key reason is that Dong Yong needed an outlet for his anger, and He Yuzhu seemed easier to manipulate than others.
"Let's go, if we stay any longer, they'll be signing the contract!"

Wu Jing smiled strangely. If the two of them hadn't been so close to their destination, they really wouldn't have wasted so much time!
Meanwhile, He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e had just arrived at their destination and were listening to Gao Ling's report!

"Mr. He, this is the situation. In theory, this twelve-story office building would only cost around 500,000, but the other party is asking for 700,000, not a penny less, which is why they've alarmed you!"

If it were a legal issue, Gao Ling was confident she could resolve it independently. However, the office building was of great importance, and He Yuzhu's purpose in entrusting the matter was to prevent the developer from setting up contract traps, not to allow her to buy it herself.
Therefore, when encountering business negotiation issues, you can only turn to He Yuzhu!

"That's already very good, Attorney Gao. Leave the rest of the negotiations to me. You just need to coordinate the contract with the Huo family's legal department!"

"Yes, Mr. He!"

"Manager Li, right? Considering the current prices of office buildings on Hong Kong Island and the surrounding land prices, your price is quite high. Please give me your bottom line!"

"Mr. He, 700,000 is already the lowest price, and that includes the parking lot in front of the office building!"

Manager Li felt that He Yuzhu looked familiar, but couldn't remember who he was for a moment. Therefore, he was still polite, but the price was very rigid and he wouldn't budge an inch!
"That's right, you country bumpkin! If you can't afford it, go back to the north and stop embarrassing yourself in Hong Kong!"

Just as He Yuzhu was about to haggle, an annoying voice suddenly rang out. Lou Xiao'e, who had been smiling, immediately frowned. It really was like a persistent ghost!

"Oh ho ho, isn't this Young Master Wu? So you've plugged the 12 million hole? As far as I know, news of the Wu family's broken cash flow is everywhere, and Wu's stock has been plummeting. Young Master Wu doesn't seem to be in a hurry!" (End of Chapter)
