CHAPTER 462: CHAPTER 458: ANOTHER PURPOSE

"Does Eldest Young Master Chen also have conflicts with Lin Mu?" Liu Zhenyun furrowed his brow, which surprised him a bit.

"That’s right, I do have conflicts with Lin Mu, so I want to deal with him. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. I also want to become friends with you, President Liu, and since you have issues with Lin Mu, it’s only natural for me to help you!" Chen Shiwei said with a laugh.

Liu Zhenyun’s eyes flickered. If Chen Shiwei truly had a conflict with Lin Mu, that would be great, but Liu Zhenyun had some reservations. Chen Shiwei certainly wouldn’t help him for no reason!

"Ha ha, with your strength, dealing with Lin Mu shouldn’t be difficult, right?" Liu Zhenyun asked with a chuckle.

"If it were just Lin Mu alone, it wouldn’t be hard. But behind Lin Mu stands Su’s Great Enterprise. Surely, you know about Su’s Great Enterprise?" Chen Shiwei replied.

"Su’s Great Enterprise?" Liu Zhenyun was a bit stunned upon hearing that. How could he not know of Su’s Great Enterprise’s reputation? In terms of financial strength, Su’s Great Enterprise might even surpass the Chen Family.

Liu Zhenyun was filled with astonishment, not expecting Lin Mu to be connected with Su’s Great Enterprise. No wonder he was so confident; the Su Family’s strength is indeed formidable!

"Yes, Sophie from Su’s Great Enterprise is Lin Mu’s fiancée. If something happens to Lin Mu, Su’s Great Enterprise will definitely step in. If I were to confront them, it would be challenging. Even if I succeed in eliminating Lin Mu, it would come at a great cost to me!" Chen Shiwei said.

"So how does Eldest Young Master Chen plan to deal with Lin Mu?" Liu Zhenyun asked.

"Ha ha, now is not the time to deal with Lin Mu. Frankly, I don’t currently have major conflicts of interest with Lin Mu. Things are at a stable stage for now, but this is only temporary. Eventually, there will be conflicts. If I were to deal with Lin Mu, it would be in the future. This time, I want to do some business with you, President Liu!" Chen Shiwei said.

Liu Zhenyun looked at Chen Shiwei. It was indeed as he expected; Chen Shiwei was finally ready to ask for a benefit! As the saying goes, everyone is for themselves, or Heaven and Earth will doom them. It’s spot on.

"Ha ha, I wonder what kind of business Eldest Young Master Chen wants to do with me?" Liu Zhenyun asked with a smile.

Chen Shiwei took a drag on a large cigar, slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, and said, "I know President Liu has some assets in Wancheng, so I want to take over those assets from you. Only by increasing my overall strength can I have a stronger position against Lin Mu!"

"Take over my assets?" When Liu Zhenyun heard Chen Shiwei say this, he frowned. It turned out that Eldest Young Master Chen was just like that guy Lin Mu, eyeing their Liu Family’s assets in Wancheng. They were both opportunists looking to strike when the iron’s hot.

"Ha ha, and how does Eldest Young Master Chen plan to take over?" Liu Zhenyun forced a laugh, his tone changing again.

"It’s simple. I want to take over those two assets of yours for ten million, and I’ll deal with Lin Mu on your behalf, so you don’t have to worry about his retaliation!"

What? Only ten million? What kind of nonsense is that? Liu Zhenyun looked at Chen Shiwei. He really was a ruthless person, wanting to exchange ten million for a billion in assets. How ridiculous! Just like Lin Mu, but Lin Mu was even more ruthless, pulling out a million as if he were throwing coins to beggars.

"Ha ha, Eldest Young Master Chen must be joking, right? My two factories, though not very large, are at least worth a billion. To take them for ten million seems a bit unreasonable, don’t you think?" Liu Zhenyun said with a cold smile.

Chen Shiwei looked at Liu Zhenyun. To put it nicely, Chen Shiwei was negotiating with Liu Zhenyun, but more bluntly, Chen Shiwei was extorting Liu Zhenyun. Like a crafty monkey, Chen Shiwei was like Lin Mu, both ready to play dirty when the chance arises!

The two factories Liu Zhenyun owned, one a garment factory and the other a food factory, weren’t major enterprises. The reason both Chen Shiwei and Lin Mu were eager to acquire them was because of the valuable land they occupied. The land covered tens of acres and, most importantly, had great potential for appreciation, promising considerable profit.

So what Lin Mu and Chen Shiwei really had their eyes on were not the factories themselves, but the land they were on! Because Lin Mu and Chen Shiwei were both farsighted, they knew the land these factories were sitting on would certainly appreciate several times over in the coming years. By then, it wouldn’t be worth just one billion, but could bring three to five billion in profits!

This business opportunity had gone unnoticed by Liu Zhenyun since he wasn’t a native of Wancheng and didn’t understand the development patterns there! Besides, Liu Zhenyun never considered real estate development, as the Liu Family’s main focus had been on the development of Situong Town. Now that Situong Town was going under, Liu Zhenyun’s real estate aspirations had burst!

And now, Chen Shiwei was like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, having helped the Liu Family out of danger, he finally bared his fangs, ready to feast. Liu Zhenyun finally understood that Chen Shiwei didn’t save him to make friends; all the pleasantries were just a front. The real goal was those two factories!

Liu Zhenyun knew that selling the two factories to Chen Shiwei was not an impossibility, but selling them for ten million was almost like giving them away. It was intolerable to his pride.

However, Chen Shiwei didn’t give up, "Ha ha, President Liu, ten million is actually quite a lot for you. If I’m right, Lin Mu is targeting you now, and helping you deal with him will be a significant investment, a cost I can’t bear alone, can I?" Chen Shiwei said with a chuckle.

"Eldest Young Master Chen, if you’re only offering ten million to buy my two factories, then I’m sorry, I can’t accept that price. If I were to sell these two factories, even at a billion in Wancheng, people would fight over them. Ten million, ha ha! I’m at a loss for words!" Liu Zhenyun said, shaking his head with a smile.

"President Liu, ten million is indeed not much, but you need to see your current situation clearly! You’ve already been dragged into the business whirlpool of Wancheng, and there’s no easy way out. Offending Lin Mu means offending the giant Su’s Great Enterprise. Do you think Lin Mu will let you off easily?"

Chen Shiwei chuckled and then threw in a few more threatening remarks. His goal was simple, to force Liu Zhenyun to give in, letting him take the Liu Family’s two tastiest huge chunks for just ten million. However, Chen Shiwei also knew that Liu Zhenyun had been in the business world for a while and wouldn’t yield easily to him.

Moreover, the incident where Ah Yue and Alan had their faces slashed at the Flying Dragon Foot Bath Pavilion was orchestrated by Chen Shiwei, the hypocrite, to make Lin Mu direct his ire towards Liu Zhenyun, making him believe it was Liu Zhenyun’s revenge against the Flying Dragon Group!
