Reborn in 85: Starting with a family split and becoming the richest man, the ungrateful wretch regre

Cheng Lin stroked his chin and said, "Indeed, this is a gathering of heroes!"

Lu Yang couldn't help but laugh out loud. The two walked into the mall one after the other and met a large group of people in the lobby on the first floor.

Shen Xuwen stood next to a middle-aged man who was talking to another person with a serious expression. The man's eyebrows and eyes resembled Shen Xuwen's by about 60%.

Lu Yang speculated that this person was Shen Xuwen's father, Deputy Director Shen.

The person sitting opposite the provincial deputy director was Lan Chongqi from the Lan family, Lan Siqi's second uncle, who was the deputy director of the land bureau in his previous life.

But Lu Yang doesn't know what his position is.

However, judging from the fact that he and Deputy Director Shen are on equal footing, his position is not low either.

Shen Xuwen glanced at Lu Yang, then whispered something to Deputy Director Shen.

Deputy Director Shen immediately turned his head to look at Lu Yang. Lu Yang quickly walked over and said politely, "Deputy Director Shen, hello, my name is Lu Yang."

"I heard from Shen Xuwen that they were looking to attract investment here, so I came to take a look."

Deputy Director Shen nodded, pointed to the chair next to him, and said, "Sit down, everyone isn't here yet."

Lu Yang nodded slightly and sat down in the chair that Deputy Director Shen pointed out. Cheng Lin sat next to him, looking somewhat reserved.

Lan Chongqi glanced at Lu Yang before asking Deputy Director Shen, "I've never heard of this child before. Whose is he?"

Deputy Director Shen glanced at Lu Yang and said very seriously, "This kid is probably very patient. He started from scratch three years ago and now he has accumulated at least tens of millions of yuan in wealth in Yangcheng."

"Moreover, he was admitted to Shandong University and will be a junior at Shandong University when the semester starts."

Lan Chongqi glanced at Lu Yang with surprise and said cautiously, "To catch up with the times and have such an opportunity is quite an achievement."

Lu Yang nodded slightly and said, "You two flatter me. I don't have any special skills; I just work hard without thinking."

They both smiled but didn't respond, instead continuing their own conversation.

Lu Yang listened quietly without interrupting.

Deputy Director Shen's health wasn't very good. In his previous life, when Lu Yang discovered that his academic credentials had been stolen, Deputy Director Shen was already in the ICU, and they hadn't had any conflicts.

Lan Chongqi is a self-interested person. In his previous life, he only watched coldly. When Lu Yang was ostracized, he did not take action to suppress Lu Yang, nor did he ever mock Lu Yang.

In Lu Yang's eyes, both of them were experts who could see the big picture.

Those who survived such turbulent times and were able to smoothly transition to a peaceful era, and hold high positions, are no ordinary people.

Less than ten minutes later, more than a dozen people walked in from outside. Lu Yang didn't expect Lan Siqi to come too.

When she saw Lu Yang, she was taken aback at first, but then she walked around Lu Yang and sat down in the empty seat next to Lan Chongqi.

"Second Uncle, my dad is too busy, so he asked me to come and check on him."

Lan Siqi behaved herself properly in front of her second uncle, completely losing her arrogant and domineering demeanor.

Lan Chongqi nodded slightly, exchanged a glance with Deputy Director Shen, and then looked at Liang Yi, the director of the Industry and Commerce Bureau.

Liang Yi sat upright, his voice strong and clear: "I've called you all here today to discuss the investment situation in the shopping mall."

"Our mall lacks not only funds, but also sources of goods. So you might as well reveal your assets and the supply channels you have access to."

"Only those with the strongest credit and the most diverse sources of goods are qualified to take over this shopping mall."

Seeing this scene, Lu Yang felt a sense of familiarity; it was somewhat like a real estate bidding process.

But it's clear that after so many back-and-forth battles, this is definitely the final round.

With so many people present, the only ones truly capable of competing are the people Director Liang Yi brought, and Lu Yang and the Lan family, whom Deputy Director Shen brought along.

The group first offered a starting price, and after thinking about it, Lu Yang decided to take 300 million.

He didn't plan to go all out, after all, he still planned to do real estate with Qian Jianyun, and he couldn't put all his money into this.

After writing down the bottom price, he handed the note with the bottom price to Deputy Director Shen, who then put it into the cardboard box in front of him.

After everyone had written down their reserve prices, Director Liang Yi checked them. Lu Yang had overestimated this group of people.

There were only two highest bidders: him and He Yunwei, who was brought by Liang Yi.

Both sides offered a base price of 300 million.

Lu Yang glanced at He Yunwei. He always felt that this guy wasn't using his full strength, just like himself.

The second round is about comparing the distribution channels.

Lu Yang thought for a moment and realized that he could get his hands on anything that was available in the market, since he had a large trading post in Yangcheng, and the goods in those trading posts were almost all low-priced.

Even He Yunwei lost to him this time. Liang Yi glanced at Lu Yang, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. It was obvious that he felt Lu Yang was getting in his way.

In his eyes, Lu Yang was probably a Cheng Yaojin who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Originally, it was a foregone conclusion that He Yunwei would win the project, but Deputy Director Shen disagreed.

Liang Yi had just gone through the motions, but unexpectedly Lu Yang snatched the prize away.

But he was, after all, a cunning old fox who had held a high position for many years, and he quickly calmed down. He even praised him, saying, "The younger generation is truly formidable."

Lu Yang smiled politely: "You think too highly of me. I've only been in business for a few years and made a little money. No wonder you praise me so much."

Lan Chongqi also gave Lu Yang a deep look. When Deputy Director Shen told him that Lu Yang was worth tens of millions, he didn't take it seriously and always thought that Deputy Director Shen was exaggerating.

Now it seems that Deputy Director Shen was not exaggerating at all; Lu Yang's net worth is even more than tens of millions.

He Yunwei glanced at Lu Yang, his eyes filled with murderous intent; he was clearly very unwilling.

But with so many high-ranking leaders present, he couldn't say anything.

Lu Yang glanced at He Yunwei out of the corner of his eye. He thought to himself, "I'll make a mental note of this. This guy is very patient and has a deep mind. He'll be my biggest competitor here in the future."

Although Lu Yang wanted to expand and strengthen his business in Guangzhou, the provincial capital was, after all, his hometown and the place where he made his fortune.

He still wanted to stabilize this place, so that if anything went wrong in Guangzhou, he could retreat here and make a comeback.

He and He Yunwei were definitely on opposite sides, so he didn't give He Yunwei a friendly look either.

Deputy Director Shen smiled and looked at the director. Liang Yi politely asked, "When would you two bureaus like to sign the contract?"

"Many cities in the south have developed by opening up trade earlier, and we cannot fall too far behind."

Liang Yi forced out a sentence through gritted teeth: "Have him come to my office tomorrow to sign the contract."

After saying that, he jumped up and strode away.

The junior team leader watched his retreating figure with a half-smile, seemingly unconcerned that he had angered his superior.
