After Zhang Lizheng whispered a few words into Chu Xinghe’s ear with a wicked smile, Chu Xinghe immediately looked enlightened.
Seeing their expressions, Chu Xiu immediately understood that they were up to no good.
“What, Chairman Chu? You’re saying that you spent 80 billion to buy the shares?” Zhang Lizheng said loudly on purpose.
At this moment, the originally loud voices in the banquet hall quieted down after Zhang Lizheng exclaimed.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were on Zhang Lizheng and Chu Xinghe.
After sensing the change in the surroundings, Chu Xinghe immediately grinned smugly.
At this moment, he felt that Chairman Zhang was really a good person. Everything he did was to his liking.
At this moment, he also saw Zhang Lizheng’s gaze, and understood that he was asking him to play along with him.
He agreed with the other party’s message.
Seeing that the people around him were already looking at him, he deliberately exclaimed, “That’s right. You didn’t hear wrongly. My father and I borrowed more than 80 billion yuan to buy shares.
“And it was all in cash. The other party didn’t agree to let us mortgage our assets.”
Zhang Lizheng, who was at the side, hurriedly added, “Yo, what do you mean? Brother Chu Xiu, do you have more than 80 billion in cash in your hands now?”
When Zhang Lizheng said this, he even pretended to be surprised and turned to Chu Xiu.
Although it was a question, his tone was very certain.
Chu Xinghe, who was watching the commotion, said, “Of course. I paid with my own hands. How can I forget?
“We all have an agreement. If you don’t believe me, I’ll send the relevant documents later.”
The two of them deliberately spoke loudly so that the people in the hall could hear them.
At this moment, the protagonist they were discussing, Chu Xiu, was eating fruits indifferently.
He ate the fruits in his hand very indifferently, and did not care about Chu Xinghe and the others’ actions.
No matter what, he was someone with a deep mind. It would not be too late to make a move when the abnormality happened.
He also understood what the other party’s scheme was judging from Chu Xinghe and the other party’s actions.
The two of them deliberately said that he had more than 80 billion in cash to attract the people in the hall.
At their level, sometimes money was not that important.
Especially in Chu Xiu’s current situation. He did not have any products in his hands, but he had a lot of cash.
In this hall, there were not only merchants, but also some people with dark backgrounds.
To these people, Chu Xiu, who had cash in hand, was a walking bag with money.
Originally, unless the parties involved made it clear, it would be very difficult to guess the details, so they would not care so much.
At this moment, however, Chu Xinghe had already announced the deal between the two of them in public.
That would cause some people with ulterior motives to have bad thoughts.
At that moment, Chu Xiu could clearly sense that among the people looking at him, there were many malicious gazes. There was greed, jealousy, desire, and possessiveness!
In the eyes of these people, Chu Xiu was no longer a handsome and sunny young man.
He was a lamb that emitted the fragrance of money from head to toe!
All of this was caused by Chu Xinghe and Zhang Lizheng’s actions.
After eating the last piece of fruit, Chu Xiu looked at Chu Xinghe and Zhang Lizheng.
Seeing Chu Xiu look over, the two of them immediately revealed smug smiles.
In their opinion, Chu Xiu should be exasperated.
However, what they did not expect was that not only was Chu Xiu not angry, but he also picked up a glass of wine from a server at the side. Then, he extended his hand and toasted them before drinking it in one gulp!
This action made Chu Xinghe a little confused. He felt that the other party’s actions were a little unfathomable.
At the side, Zhang Lizheng’s expression turned serious. His eyes began to flicker.
As Chu Xiu’s old rival in the business world, he knew this young man’s strength very well.
He also knew how good the other party’s ability was. It was completely in another league compared to the idiot beside him.
And it was this person who suddenly made a move to exchange for a large amount of cash.
Putting aside this behavior, they exposed the fact that Chu Xiu had cash.
Unless the other party left this banquet and immediately found people to protect him 24 hours a day as long as he was careless, he would be eaten up by some local tyrants.
But don’t think that money could settle everything.
Especially when you had a lot of cash, and didn’t have the strength to protect it.
Chu Xiu was in such a situation. Perhaps someone had already started to spread the news.
Perhaps Chu Xiu would encounter a problem the moment he went out. Of course, it was also possible for him to safely cover some distance.
After all, it was a little troublesome to do such a thing under the Ye Family’s nose.
However, at this moment, Chu Xiu ignored the greedy gazes of the surrounding people, and was very calm.
This made Zhang Lizheng a little hesitant. Could it be that Chu Xiu still had some trump card?
Just as everyone was scheming, the door to the hall opened.
An energetic and well-dressed old man strode over.
Even though the other party had a head of white hair, he had a smile on his face, and he gave off the feeling of an old neighbor.
However, it made the surrounding people feel like they were in a special place, and did not dare to breathe heavily!
The person who came was the organizer of this banquet, a local leader, Ye Zhenglong!
The other party strode to the podium, and the surrounding people subconsciously leaned forward.
Meanwhile, Chu Xiu’s eyes lit up because he saw Ye Zhenglong’s eldest son leaning over.
Moreover, the other party was leaning against a table. At the same time, Ye Zhenglong began to speak.
However, Chu Xiu didn’t care. His gaze was fixed on Ye Zhenglong’s eldest son.
He was constantly paying attention to the other party’s every move and observing his location.
At this moment, Ye Zhenglong, who was in the high up, was talking nonstop about his rich history. This was also one of his hobbies.
He liked to talk at length about how he had made his fortune. Then, after every speech, he would stop to listen to the applause below.
Apparently, when Ye Zhenglong had been young, he had had the idea of being a storyteller.
Although he had already become the head of the family and had monstrous power, he hadn’t lost his passion.
Instead, he liked it more and more. Once he started talking, he couldn’t stop. The people below didn’t dare to stop him.
Just like that, Ye Zhenglong spoke for a full half an hour before he finished explaining his hardships.
The people below also cheered loudly.
At the same time, it was almost noon!
Ye Zhenglong, who was satisfied, also knew that the applause of the people below was related to his identity, and not his speech, but who cared?
Hence, after saying a few words, he left the banquet for the people below the stage.
At this moment, the banquet officially began. Some of the juniors of the families could not wait.
Some pulled up the people they liked, and went to the balcony to chat.
Some people started to leave the banquet, and walked into the hotel rooms.
As for Chu Xiu, he silently walked to a spot not far from the eldest young master of the Ye Family.
Then, he began to count down in his mind…
