Dingxiang Tea House in Nantong County.
This is a representative establishment under Jia Youcai's numerous ventures and one of Nantong's iconic clubs.
The so-called tea house is naturally not just about drinking tea and tasting, but a comprehensive health venue offering a variety of services.
At this moment, in the most luxurious "Hongrui Pavilion" private room of the tea house, Zhu Ge Yuheng and several bigwigs gathered together.
And Jiang Feng was at the head of the table, with the host Jia Youcai and others sitting respectfully below him.
"A single artifact is famous only for tea, guests are full of tea fragrance! It's rare for all of you esteemed brothers to come to my humble place for tea today. The rough tea and plain water are nothing grand, and I hope you can bear with it,"
Jia Youcai said with a smile.
"Old Jia, how did you learn to put on airs? Is this your style?" Tao Guoyi joked with a smile.
"Damn you, can't I act cultured for once? Stop trying to one-up me!" Jia Youcai laughed and cursed.
The bigwigs burst into laughter.
"Alright, Mr. Jiang is still very busy, let's not talk about things that don't matter and get straight to the point."
Zhu Ge Yuheng raised his hand, interrupting everyone, and then asked Jiang Feng, "Mr. Jiang, everyone here is not an outsider. We all want to know one thing - is it true that Han Shilong can't return to Binhai anymore?"
The question was skillfully asked, subtle yet implicitly expressing a deeper meaning. Everyone's expressions instantly became serious, tensely anticipating Jiang Feng's answer.
Jiang Feng calmly took a sip of tea and said, "Han Shilong's current situation is his own doing. I gave him a chance, but he didn't cherish it."
This was a skillful statement, not a direct reply, but it tacitly acknowledged everything!
In an instant, the bigwigs present exchanged glances, feeling a strong surge of excitement!
Thinking that Jiang Feng, who recently wiped out the Yan Family, and now so swiftly dealt with Han Shilong, is truly extraordinary and terrifying, isn't he?
Even more horrifying is that Han Shilong's group has neither been seen alive nor dead until now, and no one knows exactly how he did it...
"Ahem, Daoist Jiang, it's like this..."
Zhou Rongfa, still in shock, said with a smile, "You know us; we're now your loyal followers. However, we're ultimately businessmen, and businessmen live for profit. So, I ventured to ask, with Han Shilong's fall, how do you plan to handle the big cake that is the Han Group?"
The marketplace has always been akin to a battlefield.
The few present here, although not like Zhu Ge Yuheng who controls the Chu Family's Black Gold Empire, are each ruthless when it comes to devouring others within their own commercial territories!
Now that Han Shilong has disappeared into thin air in Nantong, it will inevitably trigger a chain reaction. What happened to the Shi Group not long ago will also happen to the Han Group. The collapse of the building is only a matter of time!
In this situation, if Jiang Feng says so, the Han Group can't be touched, then no one present would dare touch it.
However, if Jiang Feng is not interested, they can indulge in a massive invasion!
Jiang Feng had expected that these people respectfully brought him out just to discuss this matter, so he calmly said, "The Chu Family takes half of the Han Group's assets, and you can divide the remaining half among yourselves."
Zhu Ge Yuheng was taken aback by these words, not expecting that with a casual remark, Jiang Feng allowed the Chu Family to pick up such a great benefit, directly acquiring half of the Han Group's wealth!
And the bigwigs were also suddenly moved. They didn't expect Jiang Feng to be so generous as to give half of the Han Group's assets to them!
They all knew about Jiang Feng's relationship with the Chu Family, which could not be envied, but Jiang Feng willing to share the other half was already their greatest fortune!
"I have only one requirement, no matter how you compete for it, whoever swallows up the Han's assets must find a way to secretly support the Fengming Group in South City and not expose my involvement,"
Jiang Feng paused and then added.
He really didn't intend for the Chu Family to eat exclusively.
If he were too overbearing and didn't share any of the Han Group's benefits, it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction in the future.
By then, the Chu Family might be isolated within the entire Binhai business world, and it would be a difficult path forward.
Sharing half not only appeases others but also paves the way for Fengming in the future, a win-win situation.
"Mr. Jiang, rest assured! We will be satisfied with just half of the Han Group; our appetite isn't that big,"
Le Zhengyi smiled and said, "It's rare for you to be so generous. Also, rest assured, all of us will refrain from touching the assets left by the Yan Family earlier. From now on, the entire Binhai business world will follow your lead, and your words will be our command, which we will obey wholeheartedly!"
This is where the bigwigs showcase their savvy. Jiang Feng gave them half of the Han Group, and they stopped there, taking the opportunity to declare that they would leave the Yan Family's assets untouched and not harbor any delusions.
And the scale of the Yan Family is even larger than the Han Group, leaving Jiang Feng to distribute as he sees fit without their concern.
"Hahaha, everyone, it's rare for Brother Jiang to be so straightforward. Let's not talk any more about how to divide the other half of the Han Group now. We'll discuss it carefully later! Now, I'll immediately have someone prepare lunch, and let's have a good drink with Brother Jiang to thank him for his generosity!" Jia Youcai said with a hearty laugh.
Jiang Feng did not refuse Jia Youcai's enthusiastic hospitality.
After all, these bigwigs had already helped him several times. Even if he didn't care, he had to return the favor somehow.
So, at the following meal, Jiang Feng became the absolute protagonist, continuously toasting and drinking with several bigwigs, in a harmonious manner.
After a satisfying meal, Jiang Feng was the first to leave, and Zhu Ge Yuheng also took the opportunity to leave, personally driving Jiang Feng back to the Bai Family.
"Mr. Jiang, among these people, Zhou Rongfa is a fair-weather friend, Le Zhengyi has deep scheming, Yang Wanli, Jiang Tianxing, and Tao Guoyi are merely fence-sitters, only Pan Haoting and Jia Youcai are really worth associating with,"
On the way back, Zhu Ge Yuheng intentionally said to Jiang Feng.
"Hmm." Jiang Feng gave a noncommittal nod, showing no expression.
To him, none of these people were qualified to be his friends. It was just that Jia Youcai and Pan Haoting had shown goodwill earlier, so he was willing to engage with them a little more.
Zhu Ge Yuheng quickly realized this, silently cursing himself for foolishly viewing Jiang Feng through a mundane lens!
"You mentioned earlier at the Bai Family that you had something important to tell me. What is it?" Jiang Feng asked calmly.
"Mr. Jiang, you should have heard of the Huangfu Family in the Provincial City by now?" Zhu Ge Yuheng asked in return.
Jiang Feng, hearing these words, suddenly frowned: "I have an impression. Chu Renxiong mentioned it when he was alive. What's the matter?"
Back when Chu Renxiong confided in him, sharing his hardships and his inexorable sacrifices for recognition, Jiang Feng remembered the Huangfu Family. Now, why did Zhu Ge Yuheng suddenly bring it up again?
"According to the information I received, the eldest son of the Huangfu Family is about to take action! And from the moment he truly descends upon Binhai, that will be the beginning of the young lady's nightmare!" Zhu Ge Yuheng's tone suddenly became very serious and solemn!
