Chapter 316: Chapter 317: Strength Surges!

Wolong Mountain’s mid-mountain area stretched endlessly, encircling the mountain, at least a twenty-li journey.

Even without bearing any weight, walking a full circuit of the mountain path would take at least two to three hours.

Qin Tian had actually asked Zhang Runhao, who bore fifty catties, to run a circuit in forty minutes; this was simply an impossible task.

However, having finally gotten Qin Tian to agree to take him as an apprentice, Zhang Runhao did not give up and started on the path with fifty catties on his back.

The ideal was plenteous, yet reality was stark.

Even though Zhang Runhao tried his best to complete a circuit within forty minutes, it took him two and a half hours to return, limping like a dog, utterly exhausted.

”Master, this training task is much tougher than our military training. I really can’t handle it,” Zhang Runhao complained after seeing Qin Tian.

At this moment, his clothes were soaked through, and he staggered back, nearly collapsing at the sight of Qin Tian.

”Your physical condition still needs to be strengthened,” Qin Tian said with a chuckle as he looked at him.

Hearing this, Zhang Runhao was on the verge of tears, looking tearfully at Qin Tian, ”Master, I give up, your demands are really high. In the army, my physical fitness wasn’t the best, but it was at least in the top three. And you say it still needs to be strengthened...?”

Qin Tian nodded seriously, ”You’re comparing yourself to my other disciples with Special Forces standards? Is this all you’re capable of? Do you still want to be no different than Special Forces now that you’ve become my disciple?”

Zhang Runhao was at a loss for words, ”Well then... okay, master, I request to rest for a day first, I really can’t handle it today.”

Qin Tian was thinking along the same lines, smiling, ”Alright, let’s head back to the city. The procedures for transferring your pharmaceutical company and real estate company, I think they can be processed.”

Qin Tian spoke straightforwardly adding, ”Of course, I don’t want your companies. How about this, we convert your pharmaceutical and real estate companies into shares in my company, and I make you a shareholder of my company? How does that sound?”

Zhang Runhao waved his hand, ”Master, whatever you say goes. I’ve said it before, I don’t care about these things, just do as you think best.”

Qin Tian chuckled, thinking how much he liked his straightforwardness.

Back in the city, Qin Tian and Lu Qing took Zhang Runhao to the Bureau of Industry and Commerce among other places to handle various procedures, essentially Zhang Runhao discounted his pharmaceutical company and real estate company to Qin Tian, and in return, he received shares in Qin Real Estate.

Once the procedures were done, the strength of Qin Real Estate increased instantaneously.

With Qin Pharmaceutical now a subsidiary, the economic strength of the real estate company grew significantly having acquired Zhang Runhao’s real estate company, and along with a previous subsidiary hotel chain, Qin Real Estate’s strength had nearly doubled overnight.

Such major acquisitions naturally did not escape the eyes of Qin Real Estate’s competitors.

When Murong Fei learned that Qin Real Estate had acquired Zhang Runhao’s two companies, she immediately changed her perception of Qin Real Estate.

”Zhang Runhao, as the scion of the Zhang Family, how could he invest in Qin Real Estate at such a low price? He has always been indifferent to business; how could he almost give away two companies to Qin Real Estate this time? Could it be... that Qin Real Estate has such a profound background?”

Unable to understand Zhang Runhao’s sudden actions, Murong Fei became even more curious about the mysterious Qin Real Estate.

At this point, Wang Yu suggested, ”President Fei, I think Qin Real Estate is replenishing its strength now just for the Zhonghai Square project. Initially, as a new company with a lack of capital, there were some uncertainties for Qin Real Estate getting the Zhonghai Square project. Now that they have acquired Young Master Zhang’s two companies, Qin Real Estate is sure to have smooth sailing ahead for the Zhonghai Square project, it seems destined to be theirs.”

Wang Yu’s analysis was exactly what Murong Fei was worried about.

As the top business genius in the Eastern District of Zhonghai City, Murong Fei felt pressure for the first time.

This time with such a massive government project, and so many major companies joining in, it was unexpected that everyone would end up letting a new company emerge victorious.

”Who really is behind Qin Real Estate, possessing such extraordinary ability? It seems I need to be cautious of Qin Real Estate’s rise in the future,” Murong Fei murmured as she bit her lip, growing somewhat anxious.

This Zhonghai Square project—Murong Fei certainly didn’t believe it was Lu Qing’s doing; Lu Qing, having climbed up from the countryside step by step, certainly couldn’t possess such great capability.

First, to forge a good relationship with the mayor, and that too a relationship where the mayor went all out to help, was extraordinary.

Second, to have someone like Zhang Runhao from a prominent family join Qin Real Estate as a shareholder indicated the strong tactics of Qin Real Estate’s behind-the-scenes big boss.

With these two factors in play, it was not surprising for any businessman to secure the Zhonghai Square project.

”I wonder who the real owner of Qin Real Estate is, I would like to meet this influential figure,” Murong Fei quietly pondered in her office, having already thoroughly investigated Qin Real Estate’s registration information, which was virtually all under Lu Qing. But clearly, Qin Real Estate could not possibly belong to Lu Qing.

Of course, besides Murong Fei’s shock at the strengthened power of Qin Real Estate, the most shocked and enraged were undoubtedly the Huang Group.

”Now that Qin Real Estate has reinforced its financial strength before securing the Zhonghai Square project, it’s clear that they are preparing to win it,” said Huang Zihao after hearing the news, feeling somewhat unsettled.

In the Jinshan District, in the territory of the Huang Group, such a significant project being secured by Qin Real Estate was an absolute disgrace to Huang Zihao!

Even though Huang Zihao had always maintained good relations with the government, his frequent meetings with various government officials in recent days yielded no breakthrough; after all, Mayor Zhang Yuehua had obviously favored Qin Real Estate, and the lower-level officials, despite their will, were powerless.

”Dad, we can’t just sit by and let Qin Real Estate succeed. In our Jinshan District, if Qin Real Estate intervenes, how will our Huang Group survive in the future?” Huang Zihao said indignantly, his eyes flashing with fury, especially remembering the last time at the cafe when their group was surrounded by military forces, leading him to spend millions which hadn’t yet resulted in all the detained being released.

The more he thought about it, the angrier Huang Zihao became, suggesting to Huang Zihao, ”Dad, we can’t do nothing. I know a friend who knows a few formidable assassins. They’re expensive, but they supposedly never fail. Let’s hire them to take out Qin Tian!”
