Chapter 854: 50-50 Split
No matter how unwilling Fu Jiuxiao was, he had to admit that the whole project had cost him too much effort, and he could not really give it up.
Blake stayed in Jing City and became Fu Jiuxiao’s assistant. Finally, under the circumstances of repeated failures of the Long family, he successfully got that piece of land.
Next, it was time to go through the procedures, carry out the planning, and finally build a new business street.
All of this was carried out in an orderly manner. There was only one thing that had not been agreed upon.
Splitting the profits.
How exactly were Fu Jiuxiao and Samuel going to split the profits?
Jiang Li put on her coat and sat in front of the restaurant window. Her fingers gently touched the rim of the cup, waiting for Fu Jiuxiao to appear.
They were talking for too long, right?
Jiang Li fiddled with her phone from time to time, killing time while waiting for the final outcome of the negotiations between Fu Jiuxiao and Blake.
They had each other’s weaknesses, and neither of them would easily give up. In addition, she could help Samuel deal with Black Crow, which became Fu Jiuxiao’s advantage.
According to her estimation, it should be a 50-50 split in the end.
Jiang Li picked up the cup and took a sip of water. Then she heard Elder Mo sitting opposite her say unhappily, “I just can’t figure it out. These are clearly things that won’t change. Why are they still discussing for so long? Is it to see who has more to say?”
Jiang Li was amused by Elder Mo’s words. She lowered her head and took a long time to recover before she said helplessly, “Everyone always has to act as if they are trying their best to protect their rights and interests. They also have to let the other party know that they have more chips in their hands. Of course, this is also my guess.”
She also felt that there was no need.
On this day, the final procedures would be completed. However, both parties had not agreed on a contract for cooperation and insisted on continuing to negotiate.
Elder Mo’s eyes flashed as he asked leisurely, “Who else in the Long family knows about Ancient Martial Arts?”
“Could it be that you’re really moved and wants to make an exception to take in another disciple?” Jiang Li teased Elder Mo.
Elder Mo was indeed very concerned about people who knew about Ancient Martial Arts, but he would not care about people with the surname ‘Long’.
He had always wanted to take revenge even for the smallest grudges. It was impossible for him to be soft-hearted toward the Long family.
Elder Mo rolled his eyes at Jiang Li. “I think highly of your brother, but he isn’t willing.”
Really?
Jiang Li’s eyes were shining. Just as she was about to ask for more details, she heard a group of people walking down the stairs. At the same time, they were expressing their gratitude to each other.
It was a deal.
Jiang Li turned her head to look at the group of people. Fu Jiuxiao and Blake were walking at the front.
Blake’s smile was kind and gentle. Anyone who saw his smile would be infected and reveal their true feelings.
On the other hand, Fu Jiuxiao’s attitude toward everything around him was indifferent. His smile did not reach his eyes. Only when he saw Jiang Li would he smile sincerely.
Blake also noticed Jiang Li. He actually beat Fu Jiuxiao to it and walked over quickly. “Oh, Qing’s little sister, long time no see.”
Jiang Li’s fist hardened.
She really wanted to hit someone.
When Blake was about to hold Jiang Li’s hand, Fu Jiuxiao stopped him in time.
“Mr. Blake, you are too kind.” Jiang Li put her hands behind her back to stop her hands from wanting to push him. She tried hard to squeeze out a smile.
Blake did not seem to be disappointed. He held Fu Jiuxiao’s hand and shook it hard. “Happy working with you.”
Fu Jiuxiao’s expression did not change, but it was obvious that he wanted to shake off Blake’s hand.
Blake seemed to be taking revenge, and he refused to let go of Fu Jiuxiao no matter what.
Their stalemate was really funny.
Jiang Li walked around Fu Jiuxiao. When she held Fu Jiuxiao’s arm, she took out a silver needle and was ready to throw it at Blake.
Blake did not see the silver needle, but he instinctively felt danger. He let go of Fu Jiuxiao’s hand and said with a smile, “I hope we can get along peacefully and improve together.”
‘Who wants to make progress together with you?’
Fu Jiuxiao just nodded politely at him and said, “Take care.”
Blake did not care about Fu Jiuxiao’s cold attitude at all. He only knew that his mission was completed and he could spend more time in Jing City which meant…
He could squeeze out more time to accompany Yue Qing.
Sigh! He had been gone for so long. Would Yue Qing miss him?
“Goodbye, old man.” Blake specially greeted Elder Mo before leaving with all his people.
Fu Jiuxiao frowned. It seemed that he was very annoyed, but in the end, he heard Elder Mo say, “You can’t deal with this kind of people. You can only keep a calm mind.”
Jiang Li happily raised her glass and handed it to Fu Jiuxiao. “It’s all over. Let’s celebrate?”
Fu Jiuxiao’s eyebrows finally relaxed completely. He smiled at Jiang Li and said, “Okay, it’s rare for Elder Mo to stay. Let’s celebrate now.”
Elder Mo snorted unhappily. “Do you think I’m willing to stay? I haven’t found that assassin group yet. Those kids are really well-hidden.”
Those assassins had only appeared once. They must have realized that they were being watched, so they were very vigilant and erased all traces.
It would be even more difficult to find them in the future.
Once this matter was brought up, it would make people very upset.
Jiang Li changed the topic. They were all very happy this day, so they did not bother about the troublesome matters anymore.
