Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses - Chapter 208

Chapter 208: Selling You for 25,000 Per Square Meter, Very Reasonable

At this moment, a butler walked up to Bai Chunfeng and respectfully said, “Master, the young master of the Jiang family is here.”

“Are you talking about Jiang Che? Why is he here?” Hearing the butler’s words, Bai Chunfeng was a bit puzzled. Why would Jiang Che come over at this time?

Could it be that he was blaming him for not personally toasting him that day? Bai Chunfeng shook his head, thinking that this idea was too ridiculous. He didn’t think Jiang Che was that petty.

Coming from Linjiang City’s number one family, Jiang Che couldn’t possibly be that narrow-minded, and he genuinely couldn’t toast that day as he couldn’t get away from other guest.

Although the Bai family was one of the four major families in Linjiang City along with the Jiang family, there was no comparison between the two. Outsiders might not know, but Bai Chunfeng was well aware of the gap between the two families.

Jiang Che’s grandfather, Jiang Jingshan, was a person of great influence from that era, with substantial power and voice in the imperial capital.

Jiang Che’s father, Jiang Tao, was supported by Jiang Jingshan and had developed well in Jiangzhou.

As for Jiang Che’s mother, her background was even more terrifying. She was the only daughter of the current head of the Su family in the imperial capital.

Such a terrifying background was not something he could provoke. Even though he was two generations older, he didn’t dare to act superior.

Without hesitation, Bai Chunfeng immediately got up from his chair and walked towards the door.

Huang Xiaolong watched Bai Chunfeng’s departing figure, his face turning pale, and his fists clenched tightly.

With his peak Transformation Stage cultivation and enhanced senses, he could hear everything the butler said to Bai Chunfeng, even though it was whispered.

He couldn’t understand why he kept running into Jiang Che wherever he went. This guy was like a lingering ghost! Huang Xiaolong didn’t need to guess to know that nothing good was coming next.

……

“Young Master Jiang, your visit truly graces my humble abode…” Bai Chunfeng came out of the living room, smiling warmly at Jiang Che, saying polite words, his old face full of wrinkles, giving an odd impression.

“Master Bai, you’re too kind. I’m just a junior.” Jiang Che also responded with a smile. As they say, you don’t hit a smiling face. He wasn’t arrogant, unlike the protagonist who looked down on everyone, at least he didn’t show his emotions on his face.

After some polite exchanges, Bai Chunfeng invited Jiang Che into the living room, had a servant brew a pot of tea, and then asked straightforwardly.

“I wonder what brings Young Master Jiang here today…” Bai Chunfeng asked with some confusion.

The Jiang family and the Bai family had no business cooperation, and the families didn’t interact much, always minding their own business. He couldn’t understand why Jiang Che had come today.

“I have a cooperation project to discuss with the Bai family…” Jiang Che said with a smile, taking out a document and handing it to Bai Chunfeng.

This was a project recently approved by higher authorities and handed to the Jiang family. It was a real estate development project in the western part of the city.

Although the Jiang family dabbled in real estate, they mostly profited by selling properties developed by others. With the Jiang family’s reputation, they had been doing well over the years.

But they had no outstanding achievements in building real estate themselves, so it was better to hand it over to the Bai family, which had a good track record in this area.

Jiang Che had discussed this with his mother, and they decided to let the Bai family handle this project. Once it was completed, the Jiang family would sell it.

“This… I wonder how much the total project cost is?” After reading the document, Bai Chunfeng frowned and asked. Although he was very interested in the project, he still needed to know the details.

He understood that Jiang Che wanted the Bai family to build the real estate and then the Jiang family would sell it, giving the Bai family a share of the profit.

“Twenty billion…” Jiang Che said with a slight smile after taking a sip of tea. This was also the result of his discussion with his mother.

Trying to make the Bai family work for free was unrealistic, and twenty billion was nothing for the trillion-dollar Jiang family.

Once the project was completed, its unique location would make it highly valuable. By setting up some schools nearby and hiring a few top-performing students and teachers, it would become a prime school district.

People would rush to buy it without much effort from the Jiang family, and the profits would be far more than just tens of billions.

After all, they can sell it to people for 25,000 per square meter!

“Alright, I agree. The Bai family will take on this project!” Bai Chunfeng gritted his teeth and, after confirming the details, signed the contract.

He understood that building the project would cost at least sixty to seventy billion. The Jiang family was banking on his interest! And Bai Chunfeng indeed couldn’t resist such a temptation.

Once the project was completed and all the houses were sold, even if the Jiang family only gave him a small share, he would be well-fed.

“Master Bai, I look forward to our cooperation…” Seeing Bai Chunfeng sign the contract, Jiang Che extended his hand with a smile.

“Likewise, I look forward to our cooperation…” Bai Chunfeng also smiled, looking very pleased.

Jiang Che then turned his gaze to Huang Xiaolong, who was sitting silently with a pale face, as if he had just noticed him, and asked with a cold smile.

“What are you doing here?”

Before Huang Xiaolong could answer, Bai Chunfeng spoke first, “Young Master Jiang, do you know this young friend?”

Bai Chunfeng looked at Jiang Che in surprise. He didn’t expect Jiang Che to know Huang Xiaolong. He had intended to introduce them.

“Of course I know him. After all, it’s rare to meet someone more arrogant than me.” Jiang Che glanced at Huang Xiaolong and said. Disrupting Huang Xiaolong’s opportunity was simple.

All he had to do was say a few things to mislead Bai Chunfeng. Bai Chunfeng might be old, but he wasn’t stupid. He knew whether to trust Jiang Che or Huang Xiaolong.

“This…” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Bai Chunfeng’s face became more puzzled, his gaze shifting between the two.

He might be old, but he wasn’t blind. He could see there was past animosity between Jiang Che and Huang Xiaolong.

“This isn’t your home. Why can’t I be here?” Huang Xiaolong was infuriated by Jiang Che’s questioning tone and said angrily.

He still hadn’t settled the score with Jiang Che for what happened with Liu Lei, and now this guy had the nerve to question him?

“Master Bai, may I hit him?” Jiang Che turned to Bai Chunfeng and asked. It would be impolite to start a fight in someone else’s home, so it was better to ask first.

“This…” Hearing Jiang Che’s request, Bai Chunfeng was a bit stunned.

But he had just accepted a favor from Jiang Che, so he couldn’t refuse such a small request without appearing ungrateful.

Bai Chunfeng nodded and said, “Young Master Jiang, please go ahead…”

This statement also made his position clear. He wasn’t foolish enough to offend Jiang Che for someone he had just met.

With Bai Chunfeng’s approval, Jiang Che stood up from the sofa and slapped Huang Xiaolong, sending him flying.
