At 7:50 AM, Liu Yifeng handed Tongtong over to her teacher.
He then prepared to drive to the Delta, intending to fully unleash his ambitions there today.
Just as he was about to drive away, his car window was tapped. He turned to see Xu Muqing and rolled down the window, asking with a smile, "Ms. Xu, is there something you need?"
Xu Muqing seemed to be in an especially good mood today. "Mr. Liu, my ex-husband came to see me last night. I showed him the evidence of his infidelity, and he panicked instantly. Afterwards, he promised never to appear before my daughter and me again before leaving. To be able to get rid of him so quickly, I have to thank you for your method. Otherwise, I fear I would have been constantly harassed by him."
Hearing that Xu Muqing had gotten rid of that scumbag, Liu Yifeng was also very happy for her. "That's good. However, be sure not to let him take away the evidence you have. Otherwise, you'll lose your leverage against him. Furthermore, this evidence cannot protect you and your child indefinitely. If you can find evidence of his infidelity, his current wife might also discover it, it's only a matter of time. By then, your evidence will no longer be effective against him. Instead, he might even retaliate more fiercely because you threatened him before. Therefore, you should think of other ways to make him willingly let you and your daughter go!"
Xu Muqing truly hadn't considered this angle. However, his reminder was accurate. She needed to plan ahead. Otherwise, when the evidence of his infidelity was no longer a protective charm, with Wan Zihao's personality, he would definitely retaliate madly. "Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Liu. I will think of a foolproof plan." Xu Muqing, who was initially quite happy, now felt worried.
Liu Yifeng told her not to worry too much, what if his current wife didn't find out? But Xu Muqing knew it was impossible. Wan Zihao had hidden things well from her too, and she had eventually discovered them, leading him to give up all pretense. This man had no empathy whatsoever; he would do anything if provoked. It seemed she really needed to figure out how to make Wan Zihao willingly stop disturbing their lives.
"It's alright. If he bothers you again later, just call me, and I'll deal with him!" Liu Yifeng said magnanimously. Seeing how good Tongtong and Yaoyao's relationship was, he couldn't let Yaoyao be bullied by that scumbag.
Xu Muqing showed a grateful expression. "Thank you, but how can I involve you in this? I will handle it. I need to go to work, so I'll be leaving now. Goodbye!" Xu Muqing waved and got into her car. After she left, Liu Yifeng also drove to the Delta.
At this moment, his mind was focused on one thing: buying houses and making money. After deducting the rent for the warehouse and the money owed to Du Ziheng, he had a little over ten million yuan. If he planned to buy twenty houses, it would estimate to cost eight to nine million yuan. The remaining money would be used to build villas, and he would also buy a house in the city for convenience when conducting business there. Especially after National Day, the weather would gradually turn cold. Waking up early to take Tongtong to kindergarten in the countryside would be difficult not only for him but also for Tongtong.
Around 8:40 AM, Liu Yifeng arrived at the Delta, about twenty minutes earlier than his scheduled meeting with Du Ziheng. To his surprise, Du Ziheng was even earlier than him, already waiting at the intersection. Seeing Liu Yifeng, he walked over with a smile. "Brother Liu, you're here!"
Liu Yifeng stopped his car and rolled down the window. "Elder Brother Du, why are you here so early?"
"You're helping me make money, how could I not be eager!"
"Hahaha, Elder Brother Du is so humorous. Shall we drive to the residential area first? The sellers are probably lining up in the complex waiting for us. Don't be scared by the scene then." Liu Yifeng, having experienced the frenzy of buying houses last time, could somewhat predict what would happen.
Du Ziheng's curiosity was greatly piqued by his words. So, he followed Liu Yifeng's car. Soon, they arrived at the residential area. Although Liu Yifeng had already warned him, he was still shocked to see the streets crowded with people. Looking at the expectant eyes of everyone, they seemed to regard him as their savior. Little did they know, if this place were truly to be redeveloped, he and Liu Yifeng would become exploiters. However, buying houses was a matter of mutual agreement, and even if it were redeveloped, they couldn't be blamed.
After parking their cars, as soon as they got out, people guarding the sides surrounded them tightly. They had already regretted missing the chance to sell their houses last time. Having finally waited eagerly for these buyers to arrive, they wouldn't let this opportunity slip away again. Therefore, they squeezed to the front as much as possible to attract the attention of these two buyers.
"Mr. Liu, buy my house, mine is cheaper!"
"Cheaper than what? How much cheaper can it be than mine? Mr. Liu will definitely buy mine if he's buying."
"And me, buy my house!"
...
Liu Yifeng's head ached from the clamor, and he felt squeezed to the point of deformation. He quickly shouted, "Everyone, quiet down!" But the residents continued to hawk their houses, afraid of being beaten to it. Helpless, Liu Yifeng reached into the car window and honked the horn several times. The sudden noise startled everyone, and they finally quieted down.
"Everyone, I know you all want to sell your houses and move away from this place. However, our financial capacity is limited, and we cannot buy all your houses. But we will do our best to buy as many as we can. However, just because you recommend a house to me doesn't mean I will buy it. The rules for buying houses are the same as last time. Everyone take a form to fill out, and we will choose satisfactory houses from them. So, please don't crowd around us and annoy us. If we get annoyed, we won't buy any and will go buy elsewhere!" He preemptively addressed the situation to prevent further disputes over houses.
Indeed, when they heard Liu Yifeng's words, and saw he wasn't joking, they dared not speak out, fearing that the two would simply leave.
"Mr. Liu, I've gathered everyone for you. I hope you can find satisfactory houses. Don't forget what you promised me then!" Although Chen Xiufen had moved away after selling her house, for the big red envelope Liu Yifeng mentioned, she had come early, fearing Liu Yifeng wouldn't honor his word. Liu Yifeng nodded slightly. "Don't worry, once the houses are bought, you'll get your reward."
Saying this, he took out the pre-prepared contracts from the car. "Everyone, I know some of you have filled out a contract before. If you don't want to change the price, you don't need to fill it out again. If you want to change the price, then fill out a new one." After speaking, he distributed the forms to a few people and had them pass them around.
Du Ziheng, looking at so many people, felt they were too crazy. It gave him the feeling that others were eager to give him money.
"Elder Brother Du, how many houses do you plan to buy?" Liu Yifeng asked Du Ziheng, turning to him after everyone had gone to fill out the forms.
Du Ziheng suddenly became embarrassed. He looked at Liu Yifeng sheepishly and said, "Originally, I planned to use all my funds to buy houses with you. But after I told my wife about it, she absolutely refused! She thinks it's too unreliable for you to buy houses here based on intuition. Last night, she even hid the household savings book and bank cards!"
"So, Elder Brother Du, you're not planning to buy any?" Liu Yifeng asked. After hearing this, he didn't seem unhappy; instead, he was very calm.
