Tang Yuan, seeing that Lu Yang had stopped speaking, paid him no further attention and urgently summoned all members of the Tang family to the Tang family villa.
With everyone assembled, Tang Yuan directly relayed the matters discussed with Wang Yonglei to all the Tang family members.
"Grandfather, this is a sure-fire profitable endeavor. Our Tang family must seize this opportunity!"
"Indeed, if we succeed this time, we can immediately ascend to the ranks of first-class influential families, and the Tang family will be immortalized in history under your leadership, Old Master!"
"Dad, this is an unprecedented opportunity for our Tang family. We must grasp it firmly!"
"..."
All members of the Tang family expressed their full support.
"As everyone says, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our Tang family to transition from a second-tier influential family to a first-tier one. If we seize it, the Tang family will soar, and in Jiangbei City, the Tang family will hold a pivotal position!"
"It's just six hundred mu of land, costing nearly a hundred million. Where will our Tang family get so much money!"
Tang Yuan’s thoughts of such a large sum immediately troubled him. With the Tang family's current strength, they simply could not produce that much money.
"Grandfather, don't you forget that we have already cooperated with Haitong Group. According to the contract, Haitong Group will soon pay our Tang Corporation the first installment of investment, one hundred and fifty million!"
Tang Zixuan immediately looked at Tang Yuan and said with a smile.
"This… this doesn't seem right. If Haitong Group finds out that we've misappropriated funds for new projects, they'll sue us into bankruptcy!"
Tang Shimin said cautiously.
"Tang Shimin, don't you have a connection with the chairman of Haitong Group? Why would you care about a mere hundred million? As long as that mysterious chairman sleeps with you, let alone a hundred million, even ten billion won't be a big deal to him!"
Tang Zixuan said with a cold laugh towards Tang Shimin.
"Tang Zixuan, stop talking nonsense here!"
Tang Shimin immediately retorted. She had gone to Haitong Group today and hadn't even met the chairman of Haitong Group.
"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you know yourself. If you didn't have a connection with that mysterious chairman, would they have placed the investment in your hands?"
Tang Zixuan continued with a cold laugh.
"You…"
"Alright, let's all say a few less words. This matter will be implemented as Zixuan suggested. Once the money from Haitong Group arrives, we'll buy the land directly from Young Master Wang. Anyway, within a month at most, the Qinglong Bay project will commence construction. When the land in Qinglong Bay increases in value, we'll sell some of the land to recover the hundred million and reinvest it into the new project. This way, it won't delay the progress of the new project and we can also earn a huge sum of money!"
Tang Yuan pondered for a few minutes and then said to everyone.
"Grandfather is absolutely right. We will follow grandfather's arrangements!"
Tang Zixuan immediately agreed upon hearing Tang Yuan's words.
"But Grandfather…"
Tang Shimin still wanted to speak but was interrupted by Tang Yuan.
"Shimin, my decision is made. Don't say any more. Do as I say!"
Tang Yuan said directly.
"Yes!"
Tang Shimin reluctantly had no choice but to follow Tang Yuan's instructions. Although she was very resistant to the idea of misappropriating public funds, for the development of Tang Corporation and for the Tang family to enter the ranks of first-class families, she chose to remain silent.
Lu Yang overheard all of this and silently shook his head.
At this moment, his phone rang. It was Lin Guoxiong calling.
Lu Yang directly walked out to take the call.
"Director Lu, the Wang family you asked me to investigate, are they the Wang family from Taiyu Real Estate Company, which is in the real estate business?"
Lin Guoxiong asked on the phone.
"Mm!"
Lu Yang replied.
"Taiyu Real Estate Company has serious deficits. Yesterday, when I had dinner with the president of Jiangbei City Bank, he told me that Taiyu Real Estate Company currently has deficits of at least two billion, and no bank is willing to give them loans. If they can't secure more loans, they will go bankrupt!"
Lin Guoxiong said directly.
"So that's how it is. It seems the Wang family is preparing to cash out and run!"
Lu Yang said calmly.
"They do have this intention. The Wang family holds over two thousand mu of land in the Qinglong Bay area, and it has become a dead asset! They are reportedly looking for someone to take over now."
Lin Guoxiong continued.
"Alright, Old Lin. I understand. Thank you for your hard work!"
After Lu Yang finished speaking, he hung up the phone. He now understood all of the Wang family's schemes.
Coincidentally, Tang Shimin also walked out of the Tang family villa.
"Shimin, a friend just told me that the Wang family's real estate company has serious deficits and no bank is willing to lend them money. They are now selling the land in Qinglong Bay to cash out. If you buy the land in Qinglong Bay, it will become worthless!"
Lu Yang immediately stepped forward and earnestly explained to Tang Shimin.
"You useless good-for-nothing, don't try to mislead Shimin here. Can't you stand to see our family do well?"
"Young Master Wang is pursuing Shimin, which is why he's willing to give us such a great benefit. What are you, a nobody, to know about the financial situation of the Wang family's real estate company? Piss on yourself and see who you are!"
Li Xiumei immediately pushed Lu Yang away and berated him coldly.
"I'm telling the truth. You'd better not buy that land, otherwise, there's no magic pill to buy back regrets in the world!"
Lu Yang shrugged. He had said what he needed to say; whether they believed him was their own business.
Lu Yang didn't care about the survival of the Tang family. He only cared about Tang Shimin's feelings.
Tang Shimin glanced at Lu Yang and ignored him, walking directly towards Li Xiumei's car.
Before she had taken two steps, she suddenly received a call from the company.
"President Tang, it's not good! Something has happened. Our new project site has been halted. Please come and see!"
Tang Shimin's subordinate said anxiously over the phone.
"What? I'm coming over now!"
Tang Shimin said, her face filled with anxiety.
"Shimin, shall I accompany you?"
Lu Yang quickly looked at Tang Shimin and said.
"What are you going for? What use is a good-for-nothing like you going? Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?"
Li Xiumei directly shouted at Lu Yang.
"Then you take Shimin along?"
Lu Yang retorted with a cold smile.
"I… I have an appointment with my sisters to get my hair done and don't have time. I'm leaving now!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiumei quickly got into the Phaeton and sped away from the Tang family villa.
Tang Shimin had no choice. She couldn't catch a taxi at the entrance of the Tang family villa, so she had to get into Lu Yang's car and rush to the Tang family's new project site.
Soon, Lu Yang brought Tang Shimin to the construction site of the Tang family's new project.
