Tang and Ye Families to Marry? What’s Wrong with a Ride-Hailing Driver Having Some Money?
Tang and Ye Families to Marry?
Yang Chen was about to go to bed after taking a shower when Xi Yuyao called him.
Xi Yuyao: “Brother Chen, Wang Xu’s father came to my house and is talking to my dad about a letter of understanding. He said we can name our price as long as I issue a letter of understanding. His words also implied a threat, roughly meaning that if I don’t issue this letter, they will do everything they can to retaliate against me. Wang Kang’s aunt is the wife of Tang Chengbao of the Tang family in Haicheng. If the Tang family gets involved, our family can’t handle it. What should I do now?”
Wang Xu’s mother is Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi’s sister, Zhang Qian, is Tang Chengbao’s wife, the mother of Tang Chunlai and Tang Chunfeng.
Wang Xu’s family was originally very ordinary, but after Zhang Qian married Tang Chengbao, they gradually developed with the help of the Tang family.
It’s good to have a big tree to lean on. Zhang Qian can help her brother-in-law’s family secure many deals in the name of the Tang family.
Wang Kang is also very sensible, often telling his wife to interact more with her sister and buy her jewelry and bags to maintain the relationship.
If Wang Xu’s matter is handled seriously, it would be a poisoning crime.
If it is not handled seriously, it would be a prank.
The key now is that Xi Yuyao needs to provide a letter of understanding, which would make it easier to handle in all aspects.
Without this letter of understanding, it would be easy to leave hidden dangers in various operations.
Therefore, Wang Kang is now willing to spend money to get this letter of understanding to avoid leaving hidden dangers.
However, even if Xi Yuyao refuses to issue this letter of understanding, they can still manage.
Xi Yuyao knows that Yang Chen is powerful and now wants to seek his opinion.
Yang Chen smiled and said, “Tell your dad to consider it. I’ll meet with your dad tomorrow to talk. I’ll go to you around ten o’clock tomorrow morning after I finish the peak hours.”
Xi Yuyao: “Okay! Then we’ll talk more when we meet tomorrow.”
Since it involves Tang Chengbao, Wang Xu is destined to go to jail.
The next morning, Yang Chen finished the peak hours and arrived at Hualin Technology Company.
This company’s office building and workshop are connected, covering a total area of more than 50 acres.
It’s not a big factory, but it’s not small either.
Xi Yuyao was waiting at the company gate. Seeing Yang Chen arrive, she quickly ran up happily.
“Brother Chen, you’re here. Come, I’ll take you to park,” Xi Yuyao said with a smile.
Yang Chen nodded and followed Xi Yuyao’s guidance into Hualin Technology.
Soon, under Xi Yuyao’s guidance, Yang Chen met the chairman of Hualin Technology, who is also Xi Yuyao’s father, Xi Yongxin.
Xi Yongxin shook Yang Chen’s hand with both hands and said excitedly, “You are Mr. Yang. Hello, hello. I heard Yao Yao talk about your heroic deeds. Even Wang Nianming was scolded by you like a child. You are really amazing. Please sit down, please sit down.”
Yang Chen smiled and replied, “Mr. Xi, you don’t have to be so polite. Just call me Yang Chen. Let’s get straight to the point and talk about business.”
Xi Yongxin nodded and said, “Okay! Yao Yao told me about Mr. Yang’s requirements. I have carefully considered them and can basically accept them. Mr. Yang invests 100 million yuan and helps us open up all the shopping malls, hotels, cinemas, and other channels under the Yida Group, as well as the Peninsula Hotel and Qiao Jiangnan that Mr. Yang mentioned. I am willing to reform the equity structure and give Mr. Yang 40% of the equity. However, Mr. Yang said it’s just a financial investment and will not interfere with the operation and management, which must be written into the contract. Is that okay with you?”
Yang Chen: “I have to make this clear. I generally don’t interfere with operation and management, but that doesn’t mean I directly give up the right to make decisions. I may not use this, but it must be there. Do you understand what I mean?”
Xi Yongxin: “Understood. Can Mr. Yang’s promised venues and channels be written into the agreement? If you can’t do these, we will cancel the cooperation. Is that okay with you?”
Yang Chen: “No problem. Wang Zaolin will come to Haicheng to meet with me in a few days. I will mention this project to him then. Yida doesn’t do new energy vehicles, but they are definitely willing to get a share in this field. I can guarantee there won’t be any problems. I am the second largest shareholder of the Peninsula Hotel and Hai Di Lao [a popular hot pot restaurant chain], and I am the largest shareholder of Qiao Jiangnan [a high-end Chinese restaurant chain]. As long as the Yida Group can make a profit, I can guarantee that these companies will also be fine.”
Xi Yongxin was greatly shocked. Yang Chen’s true strength exceeded his imagination.
If an investment company has shares in so many companies, it would be understandable.
But how can an individual participate in so many companies?
Moreover, he is either the largest shareholder or the second largest shareholder, which is too incredible.
Xi Yuyao asked with a smile, “Brother Chen, which family are you the young master of? I haven’t heard of any Yang family in Haicheng that is so powerful. Are you not from Haicheng? Did you come from Beijing or other cities?”
Yang Chen: “I am a native of Haicheng. I am not from any big family, but I just got lucky and made some money. Capital is something that is difficult to earn when you don’t have it, but once you have the initial capital, the speed of making money is fast.”
Xi Yuyao: “That sounds very reasonable. Can Brother Chen introduce a simple and effective way to earn a million a year? I think earning a million a year is enough for me to live on.”
Yang Chen: “That’s simple, you can deposit 60 million in the bank.”
Xi Yuyao wanted to cry and said, “Big brother, if I had 60 million in cash to deposit in the bank, what would I say? The key is how do I earn 60 million?”
Yang Chen: “That’s also simple, you deposit 3.5 billion in the bank, and the annual interest will be 60 million.”
Xi Yuyao was speechless and said, “Big brother, can you stop giving me these underworld solutions [impractical or unrealistic solutions]? If I had 3.5 billion, would I still need to think so much? I could just lie in bed every day eating, drinking, and doing nothing.”
Yang Chen: “But you asked me for the simplest and most effective method. Among the methods I know, this is indeed the simplest and most effective one.”
Xi Yuyao wanted to cry and knelt down to the big boss. The threshold for the big boss’s method is too high, and ordinary people can hardly achieve it.
Xi Yongxin laughed and said, “Mr. Yang’s method is really simple and effective. However, ordinary people can’t handle this kind of method. Then the outline of our cooperation is set like this. We will discuss the details later and sign the agreement.”
Yang Chen nodded.
After that, Xi Yongxin quickly talked about the second important thing, which is about Wang Kang spending money to get Xi Yuyao to issue a letter of understanding.
If he was only facing Wang Kang, Xi Yongxin would not be afraid, but the key is that Wang Kang is backed by the Tang family, which made him feel scared.
Xi Yongxin’s words revealed his inner thoughts, which is to compromise with the other party and issue a letter of understanding for Wang Xu.
As long as it is something that can deal with Tang Chengbao, Yang Chen will definitely intervene.
Yang Chen said, “Since we have reached a cooperation, from now on we are our own people. Since we are our own people, your business is my business. If the Tang family really dares to intervene, you can come to me, and I will help you deal with the Tang family.”
Looking at Yang Chen’s confident and domineering appearance, Xi Yuyao felt a touch in her heart. If a woman could find such a man to rely on, she would definitely feel very safe.
Xi Yongxin quickly replied, “Mr. Yang, you may not know the background of the Tang family. They are really not easy to deal with. If it is just to deal with the Tang family, I believe Mr. Yang’s strength is definitely not a problem. I am afraid that the Tang family will find out the relationship behind them, and then you may be in big trouble.”
Yang Chen: “Don’t worry, I have dealt with the Tang family and know their details. Since I dare to say this, you can rest assured and believe me. I am not afraid of getting into trouble, so why are you so worried? Right?”
Xi Yongxin hesitated.
Because he felt that Yang Chen was, after all, a big business, and it was normal for the Tang family not to dare to move him.
But their family is not so powerful. The Tang family dare not move Yang Chen, but they definitely dare to move them.
If they bring big trouble to their family because of such a not-so-serious matter, it would not be wise.
Yang Chen saw Xi Yongxin’s worries and comforted him with a smile, “I will ask the Aegis Security Group to sign an employment agreement with you later. From now on, you will be important customers of the Aegis Security Group, and the Aegis Security Group will be responsible for protecting your safety. In this way, if the Tang family wants to move you, they must compete with the Aegis Security Group. My confidence in daring to fight against the Tang family comes from the Aegis Security Group, not the acquisition of shares in Yida Group and other companies. Understand?”
Xi Yongxin laughed and said, “Understood. Okay, let’s do it according to Mr. Yang’s wishes. From now on, we are our own people. I don’t treat Mr. Yang as an outsider, and Mr. Yang, don’t treat us as outsiders. Okay?”
Yang Chen nodded with a smile and said, “Okay! Then it’s settled. Someone will contact you later to sign the contract. If Wang Kang threatens you again, just push me out directly. He will definitely go to the Tang family, and in the end, this matter will become the grievance between me and the Tang family, and it will have little to do with you and Wang Kang.”
Xi Yongxin: “Mr. Yang is really too righteous. It is our Hualin and Xi family’s great fortune to cooperate with a partner like Mr. Yang. Then we have settled it. I wish us a happy cooperation and never quarrel.”
“Haha…” Yang Chen and Xi Yongxin laughed together.
With the verbal agreement reached, Yang Chen left Hualin Company.
Xi Yongxin called Wang Kang and made it clear that he would not issue a letter of understanding and must deal with Wang Xu according to law.
Wang Kang was furious and threatened, “Xi Yongxin, don’t be ignorant. Don’t you really think that I came to your door to make peace because I am afraid of you? I am giving you face and don’t want to make things too big, but it doesn’t mean I can’t solve it. If you are so ungrateful, then I can only let the Tang family intervene. You wait for bankruptcy liquidation.”
Xi Yongxin laughed and said, “Mr. Wang, don’t be so angry. Listen to me finish. Originally, I was really afraid of the Tang family and planned to let my daughter issue a letter of understanding for your son. But I just reached a cooperation agreement with a partner, and he asked me not to issue a letter of understanding and must let Wang Xu be punished by law. You say I can’t ignore the thoughts of my partner. Right?”
Wang Kang immediately asked, “Who?”
Xi Yongxin: “Yang Chen! The controlling shareholder of Aegis Security Group. He said, if you have the ability, go to the Tang family, and he will definitely take care of this matter. I know I am not the opponent of the Tang family, but he can definitely handle the Tang family. Now I don’t have the final say, he has the final say. Understand?”
Wang Kang: “Yang Chen? Hehe… He is tired of living! Last time he brought people to make a scene at the Tang family, and the Tang family still remembers it. The Tang family has already found a relationship to deal with him, and he still thinks he is fine? Okay! Xi Yongxin, listen carefully, you are following Yang Chen, and your family is waiting for bankruptcy liquidation!”
After speaking, Wang Kang hung up the phone.
Xi Yongxin’s face was heavy, and he took a long breath, muttering to himself, “Yang Chen, Yang Chen, I have done as you said. I believe you so much, you must not let me down. If you can’t handle the Tang family, our family will be finished.”
At this time, Xi Yuyao came back.
Xi Yuyao: “Dad, I have already sent Brother Chen away. Did you tell Wang Kang our decision?”
Xi Yongxin: “I told him. Wang Kang has already threatened to find the Tang family for help. Yao Yao, you should interact more with Yang Chen recently. First, to have a good relationship with him, so that he won’t abandon us in the future. Second, you should also pay attention to how powerful he is. Do you understand what I mean?”
Xi Yuyao: “Ah? Why do I feel like you are Sima Wang Yun offering Diao Chan to Dong Zhuo [a historical figure known for using his daughter in a political scheme]? You don’t want your own daughter to use a beauty trap, do you?”
Xi Yongxin was both angry and amused by his daughter’s words and said, “Dad just wants you to… Sigh… Just understand it as you like. You are also at the age of getting married. If you can win him over, that would be great. The best result is that we get the business done, and your personal affairs are also resolved. Then Dad will be happy. Haha…”
Xi Yuyao: “Forget it. I told Brother Chen that from now on I will be a cold goddess again and will never wrong myself to please anyone. You want me to use a beauty trap now, but I won’t do it.”
Xi Yongxin: “Are you stupid? He is so handsome and so capable, with first-class hardware and software conditions. What if you chase him backwards? Can you meet a second man like this in your life?”
Xi Yuyao was speechless.
What he said seemed to be right.
Yang Chen, whether in terms of his own conditions or personal strength, is definitely a leader among men. This kind of man is unparalleled in the world, and it is absolutely impossible for a second one to appear.
If the personal affairs can be resolved at the same time as doing business, it is indeed a beautiful thing to kill two birds with one stone.
Xi Yuyao pouted and said, “Okay, I know how to grasp the measure. I’m leaving, going home to sleep.”
…
At more than nine o’clock in the evening, Yang Chen had just returned home when he received a call from Buffett in the United States.
Buffett and Gates have completed the reorganization of their joint venture BG Mining Group. Buffett holds 34% of the shares, Gates holds 33%, and Yang Chen holds 33%.
According to the original agreement, Yang Chen needs to invest 100 million US dollars to obtain this 33% equity.
But he doesn’t really need to give this 100 million US dollars. Later, Buffett and Gates will invest in Jiaye Mining Group in southern Myanmar, and this part of the money will be used to offset their investment.
Buffett invited Yang Chen to New York in the United States to sign the contract and take in the scenery of the United States.
To be honest, Yang Chen has never been to the United States in his life, so it would be nice to take this opportunity to take a look.
Yang Chen agreed with Buffett that he would go to the United States to find him after he had solved the matters at hand.
The matter at hand that Yang Chen said, of course, is his grievance with the Tang family.
Yang Chen will definitely not be able to feel at ease until he has dealt with the Tang family.
On the other side, Wang Kang brought his wife Zhang Yi to Tang Chengbao’s house.
As soon as she entered the door, Zhang Yi hugged her sister Zhang Qian and cried.
Wang Kang added fuel to the fire and told the story, focusing on Yang Chen’s intention to take this opportunity to suppress the Tang family.
Tang Chengbao immediately slammed the table in anger and said, “It’s too much! Last time he brought people to smash our Tang family’s courtyard, and we haven’t settled the account with him yet. Now he wants to use Xiao Xu’s matter to deal with us again. It’s really too arrogant.”
Zhang Qian quickly said, “How is the relationship that Dad found going? It’s not a solution to drag on like this. That Yang Chen will think that our Tang family doesn’t dare to move him. He will become more and more arrogant and try to provoke us in every possible way. Look, Xiao Xu’s matter has nothing to do with us, but he is deliberately making trouble because Xiao Xu is my nephew. If we continue to drag on like this, he will be pulling shit on our heads.”
Tang Chengbao snorted coldly and said, “He dares! Our Tang family has been in business for several generations. Can he bully us if he wants to? You guys rest, I’ll go talk to my dad.”
Wang Kang: “I’ll go with you and say hello to the old man by the way.”
Tang Chengbao nodded, took Wang Kang, and took the gift to see Tang Hengyu.
Tang Hengyu was also panting with anger after listening to Wang Kang’s complaint.
Tang Chengbao quickly stepped forward to smooth his breath and comforted him, “Dad, don’t get excited. We can handle him, so there’s no need to be so angry.”
Tang Hengyu took a few breaths in a row and said, “I have already contacted an old friend, but he has made a condition, and I am still hesitating whether to agree.”
Tang Chengbao: “What conditions?”
Tang Hengyu: “His grandson has returned from training and is now preparing to set up a company like Aegis Security Group. He means to let Xia Xia marry his grandson, so that our two families will become one family, and the affairs of our Tang family will be the affairs of their Ye family.”
Tang Chengbao: “What’s there to hesitate about? Agree! Xia Xia will get married sooner or later! If we can become a family with the Ye family, wouldn’t that be great? It’s better than her marrying Yang Chen, right?”
Tang Hengyu: “But have you ever thought about it? Why does he want Xia Xia to marry his grandson, instead of wanting Chunfeng to marry his grandson? Because Xia Xia is A Hu’s daughter, and A Hu is the current head of the Tang family. His grandson married Xia Xia, which is equivalent to getting the future of the Tang family. If he knows that A Hu is now almost being emptied by me, do you think he will still want Xia Xia? Or rather, Xia Xia married his grandson, wouldn’t he help A Hu to take back everything he lost?”
Tang Chengbao was speechless. The old man’s analysis was accurate.
The Ye family’s old man’s idea is definitely not just a marriage between the two families, but to let his grandson get the future control of the Tang family.
Wang Kang whispered, “Then uncle, you can suggest that they marry Chunfeng.”
Tang Hengyu: “If you were him, would you like Xia Xia or Chunfeng?”
Wang Kang smiled awkwardly.
Tang Xia looks like Di Lieba [a popular Chinese actress], with an exotic beauty.
Tang Chunfeng looks like her name, rustic, with a vulgar air. The Ye family is a big family after all, and when choosing a daughter-in-law for the next generation of leaders, they must consider factors such as appearance.
Therefore, Tang Hengyu is now very entangled.
He wants to become a family with the Ye family, but he doesn’t want Tang Xia to marry the Ye family’s grandson, but he also knows that the Ye family doesn’t like Tang Chunfeng. This is a dead knot that cannot be untied at all.
At this time, the bad-tempered Wang Kang said with a smile, “Uncle, let’s consider the problem from another angle. Isn’t the Ye family interested in Xia Xia? You can agree to their marriage request, accept all the betrothal gifts, and then announce it to the world, so that everyone in Haicheng with a face knows that the Tang and Ye families are going to get married. At that time, Yang Chen will definitely know, and he is dating Xia Xia, and with his temper, he will definitely stand up to oppose it. Everyone in Haicheng knows that Xia Xia is the Ye family’s future daughter-in-law, but Yang Chen suddenly comes out to snatch the bride. How much face will the Ye family lose? At that time, the Ye family and Yang Chen will directly conflict. They are not helping the Tang family to deal with Yang Chen, but to maintain the reputation of the Ye family. Are you right?”
A word awakened the dreamer, and Tang Hengyu and Tang Chengbao’s grandfather and grandson suddenly lit up.
Wang Kang’s method of sowing discord is brilliant.
The main purpose of the Tang family is to deal with Yang Chen, and marriage with the Ye family is just a side issue.
As long as the Ye family can be made to deal with Yang Chen, why consider so much?
The Tang family will make things bigger here. After Yang Chen is dealt with, the Ye family will definitely not marry a woman who has been in love with someone else in order to save face, and will not marry Tang Xia, which will avoid Tang Chenghu being able to use the Ye family to take back the lost power.
Tang Chengbao: “Haha… Dad, this method is good. I think we can do this. As long as we operate properly, we can even reap the benefits of the fisherman.”
Tang Hengyu nodded with a smile and said, “Well, it is indeed a good method. Okay, then we will follow this method. I will go to the Ye family again tomorrow and agree to their request.”
Tang Chengbao and Wang Kang both showed cunning and triumphant smiles. With Yang Chen solved, they can all sit back and relax.
