Ye Tian: "These three pieces of trash, if I don't make them suffer a bit, how can I get justice for my sister-in-law? Brother Hu, have your men withdraw. Let's go have some tea."
Most of Li Yuanhu's subordinates had left, with only one car remaining at the scene.
Ye Tian poured tea for Li Yuanhu and smiled, "Brother Hu, thank you for backing me up today."
Li Yuanhu was flattered and scratched his head, saying, "Mr. Ye, please just call me Xiao Li. Brother Hu is too much for me to bear."
Ye Tian chuckled, "We are brothers, and you are older. It's only right for me to call you Brother Hu."
Li Yuanhu rubbed his hands, "Alright then, if you don't mind, I'll shamelessly accept your address of 'Brother Hu'."
Ye Tian: "Brother Hu, what business are you in now?"
Li Yuanhu: "A few years ago, I started a property management company, serving thirty-seven residential complexes."
Ye Tian smiled, "Thirty-seven? Then Brother Hu must be making quite a bit."
Li Yuanhu gave a wry smile, "Actually, it's not much profit. I have many brothers under me, and they all need to eat, so I pay them quite high wages."
"Do you have any other businesses?"
Li Yuanhu: "I also have a security company, and its performance is quite good. Of course, there are other ventures like hotels, restaurants, and cinemas, but business is tough these days, and the profits aren't very high."
Ye Tian: "You're known as the underground emperor. How's your illicit income?"
Li Yuanhu: "The rule of law has become stricter over the years. I can't operate like I used to, so my income has been declining year after year."
After chatting for a while, Li Yuanhu said, "Brother Ye, for today's matter, you actually didn't need my help. Those people couldn't have caused much trouble."
Ye Tian: "I have ways to deal with them, but worldly matters are best resolved with worldly methods. If they had been more polite today, I wouldn't have resorted to such measures."
Li Yuanhu: "Those three brats were truly despicable. They deserved it!"
Ye Tian: "Brother Hu, as Baozhi Company continues to grow, its security requirements are becoming increasingly stringent. Are you interested in collaborating?"
Li Yuanhu's eyes lit up. He knew Baozhi Company's reputation very well and quickly replied, "Of course, I'm interested! If I can secure Baozhi's major contract, I won't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life!"
Ye Tian then called Lin Ziyi to inquire about the security situation. Lin Ziyi mentioned that the company's current partner was a security firm from another province, with an annual contract of fifteen million. However, due to the company's continuous expansion, the security costs for next year would exceed thirty million.
Upon learning that the current contract was expiring next month, Ye Tian recommended Li Yuanhu's security company. Lin Ziyi readily agreed, saying that Li Yuanhu could contact her anytime.
Li Yuanhu was overjoyed. A thirty-million contract would yield at least fifteen million in profit, and he expressed his gratitude repeatedly.
Ye Tian: "Brother Hu, my brother's engagement banquet is tomorrow. If you have time, please come and have a few drinks."
Li Yuanhu smiled, "That would be a great honor. I will definitely be there!"
After seeing Li Yuanhu off, Feng Zhiyuan finally spoke, deeply impressed. "Xiao Tian, I don't understand at all. Those two young men, were they your doing?"
Ye Tian laughed, "Uncle Feng, just some worldly methods."
Feng Zhiyuan sighed, "Xiao Tian, you have truly achieved great things now. Your parents in heaven can rest in peace."
Ye Tian had a good impression of Feng Zhiyuan. He had learned from Ye Shaodong that during his years in prison, not only did Feng Xiuxiu visit frequently, but Feng Zhiyuan had also provided some financial assistance.
He smiled, "Uncle Feng, you flatter me."
Feng Zhiyuan: "No, you are truly outstanding. In fact, I also know that if it weren't for you, Shaodong's injuries wouldn't have recovered. Furthermore, the house and car at home were all bought by you. To be honest, my Xiuxiu marrying into the Ye family is indeed a bit of a climb for us."
This was Feng Zhiyuan's genuine sentiment. The Ye family's current financial strength and influence were beyond what the Feng family could hope to match.
Ye Tian said, "Uncle Feng, saying that makes us strangers. My brother and Sister Xiuxiu have always had a good relationship. It was just that my family's financial situation was poor back then, and my brother feared he would hold Sister Xiuxiu back, so they couldn't be together. Now, heaven has given them a chance to love each other again, and I feel nothing else matters."
Feng Zhiyuan appeared somewhat embarrassed and said, "Actually, I wasn't looking down on Shaodong for not being outstanding back then. There were other reasons."
Ye Tian was surprised, "Other reasons?"
