Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 587: Chapter 585: Shall We Jump Together? [4th Update]

Lin Feng’s pace wasn’t very fast as he slowly made his way to the conference room.

Xiaobu did what he had to do, now it’s his problem.

He could guess what conditions his father laid out to his second uncle to agree to let him take the lead.

That’s nothing more than the killing of Lu Xiaobu.

Honestly, if it weren’t for the fact that he hadn’t yet taken control of power, perhaps he would have been quite willing to do it.

But for now, Lu Xiaobu must live—for one, to repay favors, and secondly, for the grand strategic direction!

While pondering strategies, he ambled into the conference room.

As the doors of the conference room closed, a ’great battle’ commenced!

(Skipping the details; if interested, I’ll write an extra Chapter when I have the time.)

...

Three days later.

Lu Xiaobu received a call from Lin Feng.

”Get the drinks ready, I’m coming over for a drink,”

Lin Feng sounded in a very good mood when he spoke to Lu Xiaobu.

”Bring your own drinks, stop making a fuss. Do you know how much I’ve lost to help you?”

Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes as he spoke.

”Deal! Whatever you say, I’ll make it happen if it exists on Earth. Anything you want to eat, I’ll get it for you!”

Lin Feng burst into laughter, obviously in a terrific mood!

That very afternoon.

Lin Feng showed up at Shimen.

He brazenly took a seat in the Lu Family’s home.

”Phew, Zhang Meng, what’s with you?” Lin Feng burst into laughter upon seeing Zhang Meng: ”What’s up? Someone managed to beat you up? Introduce me!”

Just look at this attitude—now he’s even joking with Zhang Meng. This kid is definitely floating on cloud nine!

”It’s nothing.”

Zhang Meng turned his head and said.

After this incident, he had developed a certain grievance against Lin Feng.

If it weren’t because of him, the Young Master wouldn’t have so much trouble!

Although he couldn’t overtly show his anger, ignoring him was certainly doable!

Not just him, but Li Jin, Liang Lan, Su Luoxue also adopted the same attitude!

Especially that pepperpot, taking the chance when Lin Feng wasn’t looking to make a slashing gesture behind his back!

”You’ve arrived.”

Lu Xiaobu came downstairs, sat in the living room.

And sat opposite Lin Feng.

As he took his seat, Zhang Meng and the others automatically walked away, leaving enough space for the two men.

”Well done!”

Lin Feng gave Lu Xiaobu a thumbs-up as soon as he came over.

”You really are floating high!”

Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes as he spoke.

”Yep, floating, completely floating!” Lin Feng didn’t deny it and laughed heartily: ”I thought you’d just stop the Lin Family’s power at the gates of Shimen! Never expected you to wipe out both of my competitors, how could I not be elated!”

”Hehehe, continue!”

Lu Xiaobu squinted at Lin Feng.

Turns out, Lin Feng had been quietly scheming this whole plan behind the scenes.

Now when he talks about surprises, he knows what it means.

He’s saying it for Housekeeper Jia to hear.

”It really is a surprise! Seriously, come on, let’s drink!”

Lin Feng hurriedly interrupted Lu Xiaobu.

With Housekeeper Jia not in trouble, of course, he was also very happy.

However, some things are better off rotting in one’s gut, else if spoken aloud, it creates issues.

He certainly didn’t want someone around who harbored resentment against him!

”So, tell me, what’s my compensation?”

Lu Xiaobu went straight for the benefits.

”The Shimen branch of Lin Family’s entire land acquired in this auction will be all yours!”

Lin Feng said with a grand gesture.

”Shh! That’s quite a generous offer!”

Even Lu Xiaobu, upon hearing these words, couldn’t help but feel a jolt of shock!

Do you know how much those real estate properties are worth?

A whole eighteen billion!

And that’s before development!

After opening up, doubling the value? That’s a trivial matter!

After all, Lin Tianshen was counting on steadily securing land in Shimen, so he went big!

And what’s the result? Now, Lin Feng has given it all to Lu Xiaobu in one fell swoop!

It’s not just a hundred and eighty bucks, it’s eighteen billion!

More than what Lu Xiaobu is currently worth!

It’s a figure that could catapult someone from nothing straight into the Second Level Rich List!

”Are you satisfied with this benefit?”

Lin Feng said smugly.

”I’m really curious how you convinced your family to give me this property?” Lu Xiaobu asked doubtfully: ”Your family’s brains don’t have holes, do they?”

He said, not believing that a sane person would choose to give away such a significant thing!

”It’s simple! How much are your current assets?”

Lin Feng looked at Lu Xiaobu with a smile.

Lu Xiaobu: ”Over ten billion!”

Lin Feng: ”Is that money enough to develop these properties?”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Not enough!”

Lin Feng: ”So there you go. As long as you develop these properties, your assets will be firmly tied up in them.”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Bullshit, can’t I just take out a loan?”

Lin Feng: ”Can you actually secure a loan? Don’t forget, you’re not on the rich list anymore. The Lin Family has a thousand ways to prevent you from getting a loan!”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Cut it out, what if I just sell it? Fire-sale! I’ll still make a killing!”

Lin Feng: ”Try selling one, see if anyone in Shimen dares to buy.”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Hey, look how capable you’re acting! Do you think I believe that? Can’t I just let it sit and rot?”

Lin Feng: ”Sure, but the demolition on that side has already been negotiated, and action has started. Can you do without spending money?”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Zhang Meng, where’s my Green Dragon Crescent Blade? I’m going to kill this bastard!”

Damn it, he thought Lin Feng was here to bring him a blessing, but in reality, he brought a big headache!

Lin Feng leisurely sipped his drink: ”Do you still want it?”

”Want it! Why wouldn’t I?! Free benefits, why would I say no!”

”See, now you understand how I convinced my family. If you can’t swallow it, these eighteen billion will choke you to death!”

Lin Feng spread his hands, filled with a smug expression.

Many times, a benefit and trouble are only a thought apart. If you can swallow it, it’s a benefit, if you can’t, it’s trouble!

Whether you live or die, Lu Xiaobu, it’s up to you!

”Choke me to death? Cut the crap! Just watch! You call this funding an enemy! Get it?”

Lu Xiaobu scoffed.

”Good, let’s see then!” Lin Feng shrugged his shoulders: ”Come on, drink up!”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Drink!”

The drinking went on for a while, with the two of them constantly bickering back and forth, a tug-of-war of wits!

For example!

Lu Xiaobu: ”You’re drinking less than me!”

Lin Feng: ”Bullshit, did you think I didn’t see all that you spilled on the floor?!”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Nonsense, I just didn’t catch it with my mouth!”

Lin Feng: ”Well, I just didn’t get it down!”

Lu Xiaobu: ”Damn it!”

Lin Feng: ”Damn it!”

Both in unison: ”Drink again!”

As they kept drinking, both blokes got plastered, and suddenly, driven by some whim, the two ran up to the rooftop of the Lin Family’s branch office.

”Have I heard right, this is where you jumped from?” Lin Feng staggered as he stood on the rooftop.

”Yeah!” Lu Xiaobu slurred: ”How about, we jump together again?!”

This had Liang Lan and Zhang Meng watching with their hearts pounding!

What are they doing?!

Again?!

Stop messing around! Young Master!!!
