Fang Jiagan finally knows what a complete defeat means today!
The saying "When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the person leaves, the tea grows cold" is absolutely true.
He was no longer allowed to use his original private elevator. The security guard who was in charge of the elevator, who had been fawning over him when he came up today, was now giving him a cold shoulder.
Fang Jiagan, who was used to a life of luxury, was still unable to accept that he had been looked down upon by a lowly laborer he had never taken seriously. This was an utter disgrace!
Furthermore, passing employees no longer greet him with "Hello, Mr. Fang!" as they used to.
Instead, they looked at him with a mocking gaze, which made Fang Jiagan feel very uncomfortable, and he wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
When he got downstairs, Fang Jiagan didn't see his car or driver, so he turned around and asked Fu Wen, who had come down with him.
"Where's my car?"
"The car is registered under the company's name; it's probably already been taken back!"
Fang Jiagan looked up and sighed deeply.
"It's over!"
Unexpectedly, I heard Charlie Cao's voice from behind me again.
"Old Fang, this isn't over yet. At least you can go home and live a comfortable life as a retired gentleman, where you won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life. But you need to find a place to live quickly. The house you're currently living in is also under the company's name. You have three days to move out. I'm only giving you face by not asking you to move out today. Goodbye!"
Fang Jiagan's face was ashen, and he left without looking back!
He knew that his business would soon change hands completely, and he never expected that one of his hobbies would bring him such a big disaster.
Fu Wen glanced at Fang Jiagan's back, then looked back at the building and Cao Charlie behind him, shook his head, and walked in the opposite direction from Fang Jiagan. He knew that staying would not end well for him, so he might as well just leave.
Charlie Cao snorted coldly as he watched Fu Wen's retreating figure. He thought that leaving would be the end of it, but things weren't that simple. Fu Wen had been found out that he had embezzled company money using shell companies. The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) would soon invite him for a chat, and given the amount he had embezzled, he would probably spend the rest of his life in jail.
Zeng Jiahua became the chairman of a large company with an annual salary of five million Hong Kong dollars without even realizing it. He is still sitting in his executive chair and hasn't quite come to his senses yet.
It was like a dream. However, Zeng Jiahua already knew that it was Fu Wen, whom he had just met in the conference room, who had tricked him. It was because of him that the bank withdrew its loan. He did not expect that his nephew would buy such a large company in order to avenge him. This move was really hard for Zeng Jiahua to handle.
Zeng Jiahua was filled with pride, proud to have such a nephew. Who else has such a nephew?
However, Zeng Jiahua plans to tell his nephew after returning to Shanghai that he wants to resign from his position as chairman!
How can someone get paid without doing any work, especially when it's five million? That's too blatant!
After this incident, Huang Xiaochuan rewarded Cao Charlie and Zhang Sui for their contributions. Both of them received a property from Yude Real Estate, which was under Huang Xiaochuan's control. This is a case of keeping the benefits within the family.
To thank Ding Yi, Huang Xiaochuan invited Ding Yi and his wife Qi Huan to his home for dinner alone, and even arranged for someone to go to Yangcheng Lake to buy hairy crabs, which Ding Yi really likes.
"What delicious meal are you planning to prepare for me tonight, sir?"
After entering, Ding Yi acted as if he were one of the guests and went straight to the restaurant to see what dishes were served that night.
Qi Huan greeted Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Xiang with a smile, and handed Yu Xiang the souvenirs she had brought.
"Why did you bring anything to eat?" Huang Xiaochuan said with feigned politeness, but his hands took the things from Qi Huan's hands without any hesitation.
Ding Yi turned around with a disdainful look and said, "If I had come empty-handed, you would have definitely called me stingy behind my back!"
Huang Xiaochuan pretended not to hear and urged Qi Huan to take a seat.
"Qi Huan, sit down quickly! Have some food first. The crabs are already steaming; they'll be ready to eat in about ten minutes."
Ding Yi sat down as well, glanced at the table, and asked, "Where's the wine?"
Huang Xiaochuan casually pulled out a bottle of wine from under the table. The bottle was wrapped in a layer of yellowed cotton paper.
Ding Yi knew his stuff; his eyes lit up and he immediately took the bottle of wine from Huang Xiaochuan.
"Sunflower Moutai?"
"Wow! Not bad! You have good taste. Can you tell which kind of sunflower this is?"
Ding Yi tore open the white cotton paper and immediately gasped.
"Holy crap, a small-leaved sunflower?"
Sunflower Moutai was created in 1967, when the Flying Fairy brand Moutai was discontinued and replaced by the Sunflower brand trademark.
The design of Sunflower Moutai is inspired by the sunflower, symbolizing growth towards the sun and carrying auspicious meaning.
There are three types of sunflower Moutai. One type is the large-leaf sunflower, which was produced from 1967 to 1968. The production period was very short, so the quantity is extremely rare.
The bottle Ding Yi is holding is a small-leaf sunflower wine produced in 1974, which means it is an extremely rare and precious wine.
The last one is called the Three Great Revolutions Sunflower, produced in 1978. This wine has the largest production volume among the three types of Sunflower Moutai, but only in comparison to the previous two types. It is still not easy to find.
Huang Xiaochuan has all of these wines; they were all bought for him from abroad by others.
"So? Am I sincere?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Ding Yi nodded happily.
Huang Xiaochuan gestured towards a box by the door with his chin: "There are four more bottles over there. Take them with you when you leave!"
Ding Yi gave Huang Xiaochuan a thumbs up: "Big shot, you're definitely on the right track."
After saying that, he hurriedly opened the bottle, but instead of pouring the wine, he smelled it first.
Then, with a look of pure enjoyment, he exclaimed, "The aroma is wonderful, this is excellent wine!"
After saying that, he was about to pour wine for Huang Xiaochuan, but Huang Xiaochuan quickly covered his glass with his hand.
"I don't like this, the taste is too strong. I'll drink this instead!" Huang Xiaochuan said, pulling out a bottle of Wuliangye in a radish bottle from under the table.
Ding Yi shook his head regretfully: "You won't even drink such good stuff!"
Two ounces of wine for one crab. After finishing one crab, Ding reached for another and asked, "Has your uncle returned yet?"
Huang Xiaochuan was busy dealing with crab claws, and he casually replied, "No! He needs to sign some paperwork and will be gone for about a week."
Ding Yi pried open the crab shell, picked out the crab roe with chopsticks, dipped it in ginger and vinegar sauce, took a bite, and his expression was one of extreme enjoyment.
Then he added, "You're always full of tricks, coming up with the idea of having your uncle take over the company. That'll probably give that old man a stroke!"
"How could that be? They're free of any trouble now, and might even want to thank me."
Ding Yi pointed at Huang Xiaochuan with a crab leg: "You rascal, you're so mean!"
Huang Xiaochuan was busy dealing with the crabs and did not respond to Ding Yi.
