Chapter 233: Chapter 224: Breaking the Heavenly Secrets
Translator: 549690339
“So you little girl, you came to accompany the two of us old bones just to get close to Boss Yu?” Father Yu said half-jokingly.
Mother Yu glared at him, her words having been spoken and unable to be taken back. This old man was too straightforward with his words, not knowing if Xiao Qian would think too much about it.
“Uncle, I’m getting close to our whole family here. Auntie’s cooking is too delicious, and I can’t control my urge to eat. Also, your chess playing is very-inspiring and gives one confidence. Getting close to Eldest Brother is also a must, I can’t let my free labor benefit other capitalists. If I’m going to provide service, it should be for my own people.”
Xiao Qian answered with a playful smile, deftly handling the situation.
Boss Yu laughed, “So you actually think I’m taking a big advantage?”
“Why don’t we talk about it?” Xiao Qian blinked her eyes.
“Let’s talk in my car, and I’ll drop you off on the way.” Boss Yu also wanted to see what Xiao Qian was up to.
To be honest, yesterday’s incident left Yu Mingli somewhat displeased, but he couldn’t deny his brother a bit of face.
Xiao Qian wasn’t bad, but she was too outstanding and had his brother tightly wrapped around her finger. Boss Yu knew that Chen Xiaoqian’s influence on Ming Lang was equivalent to too Wang Xiaohongs on Ming Yi, separated by a Himalayas-like gap. If this were to explode, it would have a significant impact on the youngest.
As a businessman, he didn’t like his family’s fate being grasped by a girl who hadn’t officially entered his family yet.
However, he couldn’t find the girl’s weakness, and this made cunning businessman Boss Yu uncomfortable. Now he really wanted to know what Xiao Qian had in mind when she approached him.
Boss Yu still drove the same Cadillac, which was considered a good car in 2000. It was already very low-key for someone of his status.
Yu Mingli had a driver but rarely used one, spending most of his time driving himself.
He appeared the least like a member of the Yu Family, likely because of his habit of smiling. It seemed more approachable compared to the father and his two sons, but those familiar with him knew that his approachability was only on the surface, and it also depended on who it was directed at.
From his driving and work habits, Xiao Qian deduced that Boss Yu still possessed the decisive nature characteristic of the Yu family’s men. His upbringing had a profound impact on his life.
“You came to see me not to watch me drive, right? If you have a purpose, just say it.” Yu Mingli got straight to the point.
“I’ve thought about what happened yesterday, and I’ve decided to accept Eldest Brother’s invitation to cooperate. I’ll discuss the details with my mother later.” Xiao Qian didn’t hide her intentions.
Yu Mingli rested his hand on the steering wheel, looking ahead, unconcernedly tapping it.
“I thought you’d bask in the glow of the youngest, all the while upholding your noble character of not being swayed by poverty.”
These words were a bit piercing.
Xiao Qian didn’t get angry, but she even laughed.
The fact that Boss Yu, who always wore a smile and never showed his anger, could say such a thing meant that he wasn’t really mad at Xiao Qian. If he actually wanted to hold a grudge against her, he wouldn’t have made it so direct; he was testing her attitude.
“Being noble is inevitable, but it’s just a matter of who it’s for. There’s no need to fake it with Eldest Brother. Money is a good thing; if I said I didn’t like it, I’d be hypocritical.”
“That doesn’t sound like something you’d say.” Yu Mingli had trouble grasping Xiao Qian’s intentions.
If Xiao Qian was only after money, she wouldn’t have needed to go through all the trouble yesterday. However, her attitude today was very strange.
Was it possible that Xiao Qian was also someone who gravitated toward power and had only been pretending yesterday?
“I only told the truth, I know what Eldest brother means. Ming Lang’s business is in its starting stages, and I don’t want him to be bothered by outside matters. As for how far Ming Lang and I will go in the future, it depends on our destiny. I can’t not appreciate Eldest Brother’s high regard for me, but I’m not the type to like being in debt to others.”
“There’s a hidden message.”
“Yes, my mother will contract the land, and I will help you win the current deal you’re negotiating. Ming Lang is your younger brother, but I don’t really like using the word ‘binding’ to describe our relationship. I think mutual benefit may be more suitable for us.”
That was Xiao Qian’s real intention.
“You’ll help me win it?” Yu Mingli had thought of many possible reactions from Xiao Qian, but he hadn’t expected this one.
“Yes, Brother, are you currently competing for the project in the west of the city?”
Boss Yu’s trademark smile froze at the corners of his lips. He turned to look at Xiao Qian seriously for the first time since getting in the car.
“How do you know? Did the youngest tell you?”
His business dealings were not interfered with or questioned by his two younger brothers. How did Chen Xiaoqian know about it? This was confidential information.
This project was a competitive bidding process, and Yu Mingli had invested a lot of effort into it. Successfully winning it could mean a profit of nearly eight figures. However, progress had not been smooth, and he had exhausted virtually every method to get close to the developer. As the bidding date drew closer, Yu Mingli’s confidence waned.
Now, with Xiao Qian mentioning this issue, it heightened Yu Mingli’s vigilance.
Xiao Qian gave a faint smile.
“The chairman of the developer is Tang Daye, ranking among the top five on Forbes’ Mainland list, and very powerfully influential. Your chances of winning the bid are only 30%, Brother. Although your bid is watertight, in the end, they might choose the bid from Dee Company…”
“What? How could that be? That’s just a small company that was established two years ago.” Yu Mingli exclaimed, surprised. How could Xiao Qian, a student, know so much?
Xiao Qian knew about this because, in her previous life, the Chairman’s daughter was her patient. She had some impression of this project that would determine who the real estate tycoon in Qiang City was.
Ultimately, the winning bidder was the small company she mentioned. Yu Mingli’s company did not win, and the small company developed rapidly due to the project. In the later stages, it was almost on par with the solid foundation Yu Mingli had built over the years. The reason was indescribable.
“Xiao Qian, how do you know all this?” Yu Mingli was still trying to figure out whether Xiao Qian’s words were true or false.
“Brother, I am a student at Beidou Normal University, and I have a good relationship with Professor Liu Linlin.”
“I know that, but what does it have to do with the bid?”
“I’m often dragged by the professor to organize medical records, and I accidentally come across some things. I can’t explain the specifics, as it would violate my doctor’s professional ethics. But you can guess how it is, right?”
Xiao Qian deliberately made her words vague.
Yu Mingli understood after a little bit of thought.
“Xiao Qian, do you have any solutions?”
“Yes, have someone arrange a dinner tomorrow and invite Chairman Tang over.”
Yu Mingli shook his head, “I’ve tried, but he always declines.”
Chairman Tang Daye of the developer was a Jin merchant, very conservative and giving off a sense of being impervious to negotiation. Yu Mingli had tried several times to get close but was always refused in various ways.
“This time he will definitely come; do as I say.” Xiao Qian leaned closer to Boss Yu’s ear and whispered a few words. 𝒻𝓻𝘦𝑒𝓌𝑒𝓫𝓷𝑜𝓋𝘦𝓵.𝓬𝘰𝓂
He was skeptical.
“Will he really come if I do this?”
