The next day, evening!
Ye Cangtian drove Tang Xinwan out of the city center in a Maserati, heading towards Mingyue Mountain Villa.
It took nearly an hour from start to finish.
Mingyue Mountain Villa is a summer resort. Some wealthy individuals choose to stay here to escape the heat during the hot summer, so it is normal for it to be relatively far from the city center.
The entire resort is also fully equipped with entertainment facilities, even including a golf course.
At this moment, dozens of luxury cars of various types were already parked in the resort. Almost all the prominent business tycoons in Yangzhou were present, as were many wealthy individuals. Although many people did not hold out hope for being elected president, for many, it was a great honor to participate in the election process.
"Boss Zhang, please come in!"
"Chairman Zhou, I didn't expect you to come in person?" Tao Wenyu familiarly greeted the wealthy businessmen who arrived at the resort.
Although the Tao family's main base was in Suzhou and Hangzhou, his father, as the vice president of the Jiangnan Provincial Chamber of Commerce, allowed him to recognize many wealthy businessmen.
"Young Master Tao is young and promising! You can handle affairs for Vice President Tao, and the Tao family has successors in the future, haha!"
These wealthy businessmen flattered him with smiles.
Tao Wenyu also chatted with everyone with a smile. After sending several wealthy businessmen to the banquet venue, he turned and walked towards a hidden place.
"Steward Li, Miss Tang Xinwan and that Ye fellow haven't arrived yet, will they not come?"
"Young master, don't worry, they will definitely come. After all, even Tang Yongchang of the Tang family has come!" Li Jiu gestured towards the distance.
Tao Wenyu also saw Tang Yongchang, who had just parked his car in the distance. this person seemed to be representing the Tang family. If so, Tang Xinwan and Ye Cangtian would definitely come.
Finally, I can get revenge!
Tao Wenyu clenched his fist, and suddenly felt something was amiss. He frowned and said, "Steward Li, do you think we will make a big scene if we make a move at the election meeting?"
Although he dreamed of revenge and wanted Ye Cangtian to kneel before him to wash away his shame, the people attending the election meeting were all prominent figures in Yangzhou. Even someone from the Qin family, one of the top aristocratic families, was participating.
If the matter got out of hand, would it affect his father and the entire Tao family?
Steward Li's eyes flashed slightly, then he shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, young master. Didn't you say before that the merchants in Yangzhou have always been insincere to you? This is a good opportunity to deter them. Besides, I will be mindful and won't make a big fuss!"
Hearing the explanation, Tao Wenyu nodded, which dispelled some of his doubts.
Tao Wenyu knew that his steward was quite capable, and this time he seemed to have invited some very powerful helpers.
Ye Cangtian! Aren't you very good at fighting?
Let's see how arrogant you can be this time!
A ferocious look appeared on his face. Although he had inquired long ago, this Ye Cangtian had close ties with some local forces in Yangzhou.
Therefore, he chose Mingyue Mountain Villa, which was farther from the city center, for the election meeting this time, precisely to prevent some underground forces in Yangzhou from getting involved.
After they had chatted for a few sentences, Li Jiu's eyes suddenly flashed: "Young master, they are here!"
Tao Wenyu also saw a white Maserati slowly driving over in the distance. A smile appeared on his face, and he walked towards them. "Let's go and take a look!"
In the parking lot.
The door of a Maserati President sedan opened. As Tang Xinwan and Ye Cangtian got out of the car, they saw Tao Wenting and Steward Li approaching.
"I thought Miss Tang wouldn't come. I was thinking that Miss Tang's Haitian Pharmaceuticals is growing bigger and bigger, and she is the best candidate to run for president. It would be a pity if she didn't come!"
Tao Wenyu eagerly walked forward and was about to shake hands with her when he felt a cold sensation.
He looked sideways at Ye Cangtian. Although he was still somewhat apprehensive, he was prepared today, so he was not as afraid of the other party.
"Young Master Tao is indeed in high spirits today. It seems you are full of confidence today!" Ye Cangtian said with a half-smile.
Tao Wenyu didn't know what he meant, so he snorted and ignored him. He turned to Tang Xinwan and said, "Miss Tang, please come inside. The election meeting and the banquet will be held simultaneously!"
After speaking, he took Li Jiu to greet other wealthy businessmen!
Ye Cangtian glanced at the other party's retreating back, then looked at Li Jiu, and sneered inwardly. This guy was no longer afraid of him, it seemed he was indeed full of confidence.
Tang Xinwan, who was beside him, couldn't help but say, "You, don't cause trouble today. Although that Tao Wenyu is not a good person, everyone attending today are prominent figures in Yangzhou."
She was worried that Ye Cangtian would have a dispute with Tao Wenyu at the election meeting. In such an occasion, if something happened, it would have a great impact on the entire Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce.
Ye Cangtian shrugged and smiled helplessly, "I don't want to cause trouble either, but what if everything he's doing today is aimed at us two?"
Tang Xinwan frowned, somewhat uncertainly, "It shouldn't be, right? This is such an important event as electing the president of the Chamber of Commerce. Even if Tao Wenyu is a prodigal son, he would never joke about such a matter."
"Then let's wait and see! If he doesn't provoke me, so be it. If he provokes me or targets you, then don't blame me!"
Ye Cangtian said with a faint smile. He was just giving Tang Xinwan a heads-up, because he was 100% sure that the other party would make a move.
Not to mention that he had already received news from Xuan Fifteen about the planned attack, but even at this moment, he could feel several gazes monitoring him from the dark.
It seemed that these guys had already lurked in advance, waiting for the signal to act.
I wonder how Zhang Liang and Tietian are preparing?
"Niece Xinwan and nephew-in-law are also here?" Tang Yongchang walked over and greeted them both as if basking in the spring breeze.
He had arrived a little earlier, so he had chatted with several wealthy businessmen just now.
Now that the Tang family's business was growing bigger and bigger, not only had it achieved great success in real estate development, but it had also connected with the Qin family. Through various collaborations, the Tang family's influence in Yangzhou was growing stronger and stronger.
Therefore, when those wealthy businessmen who used to look down on the Tang family now shamelessly tried to build good relations with him, Tang Yongchang felt extremely pleased.
Especially now that he looked at Ye Cangtian, his nephew-in-law, he increasingly felt that he was the lucky star of the Tang family, and he liked him more and more.
"Uncle, today is the election for the president of the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce. You have to perform well and strive to win the position of president!" Ye Cangtian reminded him.
"Ahem, well, let's talk about that later!" Tang Yongchang was a bit embarrassed.
He was self-aware. Although the Tang family was growing bigger and bigger, he had never thought about the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce.
After all, in the business world, there were many people with more strength, prestige, and status than him. It was impossible for it to be his turn!
The three of them walked towards the banquet hall.
Just as they reached the entrance of the banquet hall, Tang Yongchang bumped into someone. The person had a stubbled face, was strong and sturdy, and was wearing a suit.
Tang Yongchang quickly apologized: "I'm really sorry, I wasn't paying attention..."
The person glanced at Ye Cangtian instinctively, then quickly withdrew his gaze and said sincerely, "No, no, it was my carelessness."
Then, the person turned and hurriedly walked towards the restroom.
Ye Cangtian looked at the person's sturdy back and felt speechless. When did Huang Wu start pretending to be a wealthy businessman? He didn't look like one at all!
He looked at the banquet hall. A thin figure dressed as a waiter had just retracted his gaze and was pretending to be busy arranging wines.
Although he couldn't see his face, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but smile.
"Is this guy Huang San?"
He didn't expect these two guys to sneak in disguised.
