Chapter 163 Living alongside the emperor, yet envying beggars
Lu Chenyang hadn't even had a chance to speak yet.
Su Dahai, who had always been honest and submissive, said loudly, "Brother, aren't you going too far?"
"This whole mess was caused by Su Youfei."
"Now that Lu Chenyang has helped us solve the problem, we've already lost so much money."
"How can you all continue to gang up on him?"
“Um…” Su Dongcheng didn’t expect that his usually honest and unassuming younger brother would get angry.
He could only force a smile and say, "Didn't Lu Chenyang say this land would appreciate in value?"
"We're helping him get rich."
"Besides, we're all relatives. We've already accepted everyone else's contracts, so it won't make a difference if we're one or two more."
Lu Chenyang was also very surprised that his father-in-law would stand up for him.
However, acquiring land in the southern district is indeed a highly profitable business.
So he said to Su Dongcheng, "I'll buy all your contracts for 50."
"If you want to sell, we'll transfer the money now; if you don't want to sell, then forget it."
Su Dongcheng and Su Minghao were so angry they almost vomited blood.
They, along with Su Youfei and Deng Lingling's families, were the biggest contributors to the Su family, totaling a whopping forty to fifty million yuan.
Lu Chenyang, that bastard, actually wants to buy it for 50?
In their hearts, they cursed Lu Chenyang's ancestors for eighteen generations.
But she still had to swallow her pride and beg Lu Chenyang, "Chenyang, you give other relatives a 50% discount, so just give us a 50% discount too."
“Our contract is worth 4,500 million, you only need to give us 2,300 million.”
"50." Lu Chenyang wouldn't budge an inch.
"1500 million, please, I'm begging you, can you add a little more?" Su Dongcheng pleaded earnestly, his face contorted with embarrassment.
"No more..." Lu Chenyang insisted.
"1000 million!" Su Dongcheng was almost in tears.
"Alright, since you're Su Zichen's uncle, I'll reluctantly accept it." Lu Chenyang looked very unwilling.
"Huh?" Su Dongcheng was slightly taken aback at first.
He didn't expect that Lu Chenyang would actually agree.
But he only hesitated for two seconds before grabbing the transfer contract and quickly signing it.
It seemed as if they were afraid Lu Chenyang would regret it.
Thus, a contract worth 4,500 million was sold for 1,000 million.
After Lu Chenyang transferred the money, Su Dongcheng and Su Minghao left immediately without wasting a second.
Watching Su Dongcheng and his group leave quickly, Lu Chenyang couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
If I hadn't known all along, that piece of land in the South District would have appreciated tenfold or even a hundredfold.
How could I possibly spend a lot of money to buy such a pile of waste paper?
Do you really think you're a sucker?
The more joyful Su's relatives are now, the more they will cry when they find out the land has appreciated in value.
After all the relatives left, Su Zichen came to Lu Chenyang's side.
She whispered, "Honey, thank you for helping us through this difficult time. You've gone to so much trouble this time."
"I'll put my salary card with you from now on and pay you back slowly."
Lu Chenyang was about to say that there was no need to be so polite.
Tang Yurong quickly came over and asked loudly, "Lu Chenyang, where did you get so much money?"
"You wouldn't have gone back to your old ways and robbed a bank, would you?"
Lu Chenyang was both amused and exasperated, and too lazy to waste words with him.
He casually made up a reason: "I heard that the land in the South District would appreciate in value, so I went to Five Lakes Bank to take out a loan."
"That mass grave will never appreciate in value!" Tang Yurong's expression changed drastically. She pointed at Lu Chenyang's nose and cursed, "You spendthrift! You've borrowed so much money, and you don't have to pay it back?"
"Let me tell you, this is a loan you took out yourself, don't expect us to help you pay it off."
"If you can't pay it back then, the bank will send people to collect the debt. Don't drag us down with you."
Lu Chenyang rolled his eyes.
This news was personally told to him by Mayor Wang Huayang.
The land in the southern district is receiving special attention from the province and is about to be developed into an economic demonstration zone, where prices will increase tenfold or a hundredfold.
How could such news be false?
He was very dissatisfied with Tang Yurong's actions of discarding her after she had served her purpose.
However, he knew his mother-in-law's character well, so he didn't bother arguing with her.
Just as Su Zichen was about to say a few words of comfort to Lu Chenyang, she suddenly received a call from the old lady.
After hanging up the phone, Su Zichen said to Lu Chenyang, "Grandma just said that Wuhu Group is hosting a banquet tonight."
"He told me to represent the Su family at the event."
"I've never been to such a big event before."
"Honey, will you come with me?"
Lu Chenyang nodded and agreed.
He then casually sent a message to Murong Yun, asking him what was going on.
Murong Yun replied to the message quickly.
It turns out that this party was decided on short notice.
Two financial experts from the United States are scheduled to visit the Five Lakes Group.
Lu Chenyang's brow twitched slightly as he thought to himself, "Aren't these the two experts that Bezos invited?"
Murong Yun attached great importance to these two financial experts.
They immediately invited the major wealthy families of Zhonghai City to attend the banquet.
One reason was to show respect for the two experts, and the other was to use their reputations to intimidate the Brotherhood members.
The two financial experts are sisters, one named Melina and the other named Renara.
Soon, it was evening.
Su Zichen brought Lu Chenyang to the Zhonghai City Grand Hotel.
"Miss Su, Mr. Lu, you've arrived?" The two had just entered the grand hotel when Cui Dandan, dressed in a sexy evening gown, walked over to them.
"Good evening, Miss Cui." Although she wasn't familiar with Cui Dandan, she did know her, so Su Zichen greeted her politely.
Although Cui Dandan is Su Youfei's best friend, she has never made things too difficult for Lu Chenyang and Su Youfei before.
Therefore, Su Zichen's impression of him was quite good.
In addition, Cui Dandan was always good at social maneuvering, and she quickly became familiar with Su Zichen.
I saw two women chatting, but I couldn't join in.
Lu Chenyang simply found a corner and started eating the exquisite pastries.
The banquet was about to begin, and bigwigs from various wealthy families began to appear one after another.
Not long after, Yin Tianxin from the fraternity also arrived.
As soon as he appeared, the crowd immediately surrounded him and greeted him.
At this moment, Yin Tianxin also put on a charming demeanor and responded enthusiastically to everyone.
Su Zichen, who was not far away, also looked towards Yin Tianxin.
He said thoughtfully, "Although the Su family has developed rapidly in recent years, it is still far behind the Brotherhood."
"I wonder when the Su family will be able to catch up with these behemoths."
Seeing Su Zichen's envious gaze, Cui Dandan couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.
Your husband once gave Master Lin, a guest member of the fraternity, a good beating.
I heard that when Master Lin was receiving treatment in the hospital, he declared that he wanted to become Lu Chenyang's disciple.
Moreover, Lu Chenyang also had good relationships with Zhuo Haishan of the Martial Arts Guild and Murong Yun of the Five Lakes Group.
Lu Chenyang himself is the biggest influencer in the entire Zhonghai City.
Although the fraternity was powerful, Lu Chenyang didn't really take them seriously.
Miss Su, you're clinging to the emperor, yet you envy a beggar.
