Chapter 860 Heading to the Li Family in Hong Kong
Granny Wu originally thought Zheng Tianpeng had repented, but she didn't expect him to set conditions. She was so angry she could barely contain herself, but she had no choice but to endure: "Just say it..."
"Straightforward!"
Zheng Tianpeng was delighted and said, "First condition, if I tell you, I hope the Zheng family can let this matter go."
"Your father he..."
Granny Wu knew that Grandpa Zheng was a man who could not tolerate any wrongdoing. Once Grandpa Zheng woke up, he would definitely punish Zheng Tianpeng.
"Mom, don't worry, when my father wakes up, I will leave the Zheng family and start my own business!" Zheng Tianpeng had already thought it through; he wanted to establish his own household.
"Alright, I promise you!"
Granny Wu hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
"Second condition, since I'm going to start my own business, I need some capital!"
Immediately after, Zheng Tianpeng shamelessly listed a long string of Zheng family assets. These assets encompassed more than half of the Zheng family's holdings, including the rare earth that Su Yunxi intended to purchase, all of which were highly profitable.
"Good, good, good... I agree to everything..."
Granny Wu gritted her teeth in anger, but to save Grandpa Zheng, she had to compromise: "Is that all?"
Zheng Tianpeng shook his head and smiled, "I've found that the rubber business is doing quite well these days. I want a rubber contract worth one billion yuan with the Li family in Hong Kong. I hope you can help negotiate with the Li family..."
"You..."
Granny Wu lost her patience. This Zheng Tianpeng was truly asking for too much.
The Zheng family had raised him for most of his life, yet now he was making such exorbitant demands.
The Li family was one of the top wealthy families in Hong Kong. Rubber was also a sensitive issue for them, and they would not allow anyone else to interfere. Although their family was not weak, how could they possibly negotiate a rubber contract with them?
"No? Then let's not talk anymore! At worst, we'll all go down together!"
Zheng Tianpeng raised his head, adopting a "might as well be hanged for a sheep as a goat" attitude.
In any case, if things went wrong, everyone would suffer.
Granny Wu's eyes flickered, and she took a deep breath. "Tianpeng, you know that the rubber industry has always been controlled by the Li family. Anyone else who tries to get a piece of the pie is suppressed by the Zheng family to the point where they can't hold their heads up. How can they possibly give us a one-billion-yuan contract? How about another condition?"
"Heh, that's your problem to consider." Zheng Tianpeng was unconcerned.
Granny Wu looked despairing.
"The Li family? You don't mean the Li family, the rubber king, do you?" Chen Xuan frowned and asked.
"Exactly!" Granny Wu nodded.
Chen Xuan looked at Zheng Tianpeng and said coldly, "Alright, I can promise to help you get the one-billion-yuan contract, but I have one condition: you cannot have that rare earth resource."
Everyone was stunned. They hadn't expected Chen Xuan to say such a thing.
After all, the Zheng family was not an ordinary family!
Zheng Tianpeng was also very surprised. He looked at Chen Xuan and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Alright, as long as you can get the contract, I won't ask for the rare earth resource! But if you can't get the contract, I want all of the Zheng family's assets!"
"You reprobate!"
Granny Wu was furious. "I should have adopted you from the start!"
"You can only blame yourself for being blind!"
Zheng Tianpeng not only didn't show gratitude but acted as if it was his due.
Chen Xuan looked at Granny Wu and said, "Granny Wu, why not trust me this once?"
"Chen Xuan..."
Granny Wu was slightly taken aback. For some reason, her heart stirred, and she nodded. "At this point, if I don't trust you, who can I trust?"
"Thank you for your trust, Granny Wu!"
After speaking, Chen Xuan left the Zheng family with Su Yunxi.
"Chen Xuan, do you know the rubber king?"
As they walked out, Su Yunxi blinked her beautiful eyes, sizing up Chen Xuan.
"You know me best, Yunxi." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"Really?"
Su Yunxi had just been guessing. In her impression, Chen Xuan didn't usually talk nonsense, but she didn't expect him to actually know the rubber king.
Chen Xuan nodded.
"What's going on?"
Su Yunxi was very curious about how Chen Xuan had a connection with people from Hong Kong.
So, Chen Xuan slowly recounted the story of helping the rubber king Li Jiacheng, who came to the provincial city to seek a child. Su Yunxi was amazed that Chen Xuan could meet such a person through his medical skills.
This Li Jiacheng was none other than the person who was unable to have children at that time, came to Jiangnan Province for treatment, but whose wife was scammed by a crooked feng shui master.
"But that contract is worth a full billion..."
Su Yunxi frowned.
Merchants value profit. When they need you, they say all the right things, but when they don't, they might not be so accommodating.
She couldn't help but worry.
Chen Xuan smiled slightly. "I'm afraid Li Jiacheng needs my help!"
"Huh?" Su Yunxi was startled.
Before she could finish speaking, Chen Xuan's phone rang. He took out his phone, revealed a smile, and showed it to Su Yunxi.
Su Yunxi looked down at Chen Xuan's phone screen, and her beautiful eyes widened instantly. "Li Jiacheng is calling?"
The caller ID was indeed the rubber king, Li Jiacheng!
"Answer the phone quickly," Su Yunxi urged.
Chen Xuan, however, seemed unhurried and slowly answered the call. "Mr. Li, what brings you to call me?"
"Mr. Chen, are you free?"
Li Jiacheng's voice on the phone was very anxious.
"Li Jiacheng, I'm free right now. What's wrong?" Chen Xuan smiled slightly.
"Mr. Chen, my wife is in trouble. It's very strange. I hope you can save my wife!"
Li Jiacheng said hurriedly, "Mr. Chen, don't worry, I'll charter a plane for you. As long as you can come to Hong Kong from Jiangnan Province, no matter how much it costs, I'll pay for it."
Rich people are indeed rich. Chartering a plane from Jiangnan Province to Hong Kong would probably cost a lot of money!
"Mr. Li, you're very lucky. I'm in Hong Kong right now and happen to have some free time. Send me your location, and I'll head over now." Chen Xuan smiled slightly.
Li Jiacheng was so excited he almost jumped up. He hadn't expected Chen Xuan to be in Hong Kong, and he had been worried that Chen Xuan wouldn't make it in time to save his wife. Now, there was hope: "I'll send you the address right away."
Within three seconds, Chen Xuan received Li Jiacheng's address.
Chen Xuan looked at the address sent by the rubber king Li Jiacheng and smiled slightly. "Let's go find Li Jiacheng!"
Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi quickly left the Zheng family. As soon as they stepped out, a voice filled with surprise rang out: "Sister Yunxi, brother-in-law, you've finally come out! If you hadn't, I would have called the police!"
Yang Zhenzhen ran over, her eyes red. She had already dialed 110 on her phone, and it looked like if they had come out even a second later, she would have reported them.
"Can the mere Zheng family keep us? Heh heh!"
Chen Xuan smiled.
"Brother-in-law, did you settle it?" Yang Zhenzhen listened to Chen Xuan's tone and thought he had resolved the matter.
Chen Xuan shook his head. "Almost."
"Then what do we do?"
Chen Xuan said to Yang Zhenzhen, "You take your Sister Yunxi to rest at the hotel first. I'll meet up with you later!"
"Chen Xuan, I want to go with you..."
Su Yunxi was slightly taken aback and said directly.
She couldn't let Chen Xuan take the risk alone.
