As the actual manager of the company, Wu Yifa was naturally pleased with the results. He chuckled and said, "Boss Xiao, we've set the annual profit of 50 billion Hua Xia dollars. It looks like we've exceeded it by far. The money the company owes you can be paid off in two months at most. I didn't expect that we'd achieve success so quickly. "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled. "Old Wu, be honest, do you regret working with me? If you'd clenched your teeth back then and got through the financial hurdle, you'd at least be among the top one hundred billionaires in the world now. "
Wu Yifa sighed and said, "I regret it so much that my intestines are turning green. If I'd known that Yun Yi Shopping Network would develop so quickly, I wouldn't have worked with you even if I was beaten to death. Sigh, a single slip brings everlasting regret. When I look back, it's already a hundred years later. "
Xiao Yunhai could not help guffawing. "It's not that serious, is it?"
Wu Yifa retorted, "It's more serious than you think. "However, to be fair, Yun Yi Shopping Network's development today is all because of your financial support. You, the world's richest man, have contributed a little in this regard. Tell me, what do you want from me today? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I want you to investigate a group of people's background for me."
"That's all? That's too easy. With my connections, as long as it's a high ranking official at the ministerial level or above, I'll be able to handle it.
Be it in Beijing or anywhere else in Hua Xia, it won't be a problem. I'll be able to settle it for you in half an hour at most. "
"That's great. Let me read out their names for you and see how many you know. Li Kaifeng, Yong Gaolang, Qu Maoxun, Zhang Xinde … "
Xiao Yunhai recited these twenty plus names, and said: "Young Master Wu, I wonder how many of these people you recognize?"
"I know five or six of them. I've heard of the others too," Wu Yifa replied. "They're a bunch of second-generation officials and rich heirs. They're rather famous in Beijing. Li Kaifeng's grandfather is a leader of the older generation and his father is the leader of Hei Long Province. Qu Maoxun was also quite impressive. The current Number Five was his biological uncle. Zhang Xinde's father is the second-in-command of Lin Ji Province, and Yong Gao Lang's grandfather is … "
Hearing the background of this group of people, Xiao Yunhai couldn't help but frown.
No wonder they dared to find trouble with him. It turned out that they all had powerful backers.
Although they were not as powerful as the Xiao Family individually, their combined strength far surpassed the Xiao Family. They had both money and power.
When Wu Yifa heard that Xiao Yunhai had stopped moving, he asked tentatively, "Young Master Xiao, these people are all active in the northeast area. Did they cause trouble for your Yunqing Coal Company?"
Xiao Yunhai did not hide anything. He explained the situation and said, "Old Wu, what do you think we should do?"
Wu Yifa thought for a moment and said, "Small things will mess up big plans. Old Xiao, these people have frightening power in the northeast. Although you are the young master of the Xiao family, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. If you want to do business there, you must have a good relationship with them. I think you can talk to them and lower the price. "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "Old Wu, you're asking me to lower my head. Do you think that's possible? I'm a martial arts practitioner. I'd rather die than live in dishonor. I, Xiao Yunhai, would rather not open this coal mine. These bastards can forget about getting any benefits from me. They're a bunch of poor bastards with no bottom line. Their table manners are too ugly. "
Wu Yifa advised, "Old Xiao, don't try to be brave. Because of your identity, their methods are already very gentle. If it were anyone else, they would have been rude. This is not unprecedented. "
Xiao Yunhai said angrily, "They're really lawless. Is the government not going to do anything? "
Wu Yifa smiled bitterly and said, "How can we do anything? They're just doing normal business. They're not breaking the law. Besides,
Who would dare to do anything? Their backgrounds are so powerful. Even the No. 1 Chief has to think twice, let alone us. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Alright, Old Wu. I got it. I'll fly to Liaoyang today and meet these bastards. I'll say it again. If they want me to lower my head, it's impossible even if the sky collapses. "
That night, Xiao Yunhai flew to Liaoyang and met with Lai Zhicheng.
"Old Lai, you don't look too good. Is work very stressful? "
Xiao Yunhai took a cup of tea from Lai Zhicheng and looked at his slightly pale face as he asked with concern.
Lai Zhicheng shook his head and said, "Work isn't stressful. It's mainly the pressure from the outside world. Boss, we just ended the call today and the other party called. They said they're coming to sign a contract with us tomorrow. They're exchanging three billion Hua Xia dollars for 5% shares. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's great. I'll go with you tomorrow. This group of bastards, I must teach them a good lesson. "
At this moment, Xiao Yunhai's phone rang. He opened it and saw that it was his second uncle, Xiao Shengli.
"Second Uncle, you're very well-informed. You know I'm in Liaoyang so quickly."
"You're in Liaoyang?" Xiao Shengli said, "I really didn't know about this. Great. You didn't even come to see me when you're in Liaoyang. Do you still have any respect for your second uncle? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Look at what you're saying. Didn't I just arrive? I was planning to go tomorrow morning. But something happened at Yunqing Coal Company. A bunch of bastards came to find trouble with me, so I can only report to you in the afternoon. "
"A bunch of bastards? Haha, this title is quite suitable for them. If you add the word 'greedy' in front, it would be more appropriate. "Xiao Shengli laughed.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Second Uncle, it seems that you know about Li Kaifeng and the others. No matter what, this Yunqing Coal Company is full of retired soldiers from our Liaoyang Military Region. Are you going to let them bully us like this? "
Xiao Shengli said, "What's wrong? You can't handle a bunch of second-generation rich kids, so you want me to step in? This is too damaging to your identity as the richest man in the world. "
Xiao Yunhai said snappily, "Don't I have to worry about the consequences? If I take care of them and provoke the people behind them to target our Xiao Family, wouldn't it be troublesome? "
Xiao Shengli laughed and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Since our Xiao Family is known as the number one political family in Hua Xia, it's not something that ordinary people can touch. Besides, there's an unwritten rule in the officialdom that the young people's fights should be resolved by the young people themselves. The forces behind them can't intervene. Is this why they dared to find trouble with you? Is this why I can't help you? "
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "So, I can beat them up at will?"
Xiao Shengli said, "That's right. As long as you don't kill anyone, you can do whatever you want. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Then I understand."
The next day, Xiao Yunhai and Lei Zhicheng came to the company's headquarters and waited for the arrival of these second-generation rich kids.
Xiao Yunhai asked, "President Lei, how was your contact with Christy last night?"
Lei Zhicheng said with a smile, "I sent the list of these people and the situation to Madam Christy. She said that it's too much to deal with them with our strength. The only trouble is the real estate company that Qu Maoxun opened in the northeast. Its market value is several billion yuan, but if a fight really breaks out, they won't be able to fight back. As for the other companies, they're just empty shells that can be blown down with a blow. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "These fellows are all trying to gain something without risking anything. They say that they're businessmen, but they're actually villains. They use their background to take benefits from us businessmen. Now, they're actually bullying me. Alright, let Christy get ready. Once the talks break down, she'll deal with them. "
