Xia Tian glanced at her. “You said yes, but I didn’t make you do that, all right? If only this man were Mo Jingshen.”
Ji Nuan didn’t speak.
At this time, Heng Cheng’s boss had come to MN Group, demanding to see Ji Nuan.
Ji Nuan picked up the call and took a look at Xia Tian. “When did the people from Heng Cheng come?”
“They came yesterday, and I didn’t want to interrupt your vacation, so I didn’t call you.”
Ji Nuan nodded, said nothing more, closed the document in her hand, and rose, saying, “Ask them to wait for me in the reception room.”
“The boss of Heng Cheng is still pissed that we called the police to arrest his two subordinates. He took a lot of men with him yesterday and seemed very unfriendly. Are you sure you want to see him in person?”
Ji Nuan said nothing and was out of the office.
When she arrived at the reception room, she saw the so-called boss of Heng Cheng, who was just a tall and sturdy man of about forty years old, with a bare head and a big gold chain around his neck, looking like a typical upstart. She wondered why Heng Cheng was such a bully. It turned out that they just relied on the “power” of such a boss.
After Ji Nuan came in, the boss of Heng Cheng threatened to beat her after just a few words. However, Ji Nuan just stood at the door casually, looked at the boss of Heng Cheng and his men, and moved her finger quietly as if she were counting.
The boss of Heng Cheng paused and stared at her ferociously. “What the fuck are you counting?”
Ji Nuan said calmly, “Count how many days there will be before your company goes out of business.”
The boss of Heng Cheng froze. He came here today because the government was annoyed by him and started to pressure his company. He was so unreconciled that he came to see Ji Nuan, who was said to be a young woman. However, to his surprise, the security guards didn’t fear them at all and had come forward to scuffle with his men. And Ji Nuan, this small woman, was surprisingly calm.
When they finally stopped scuffling, Ji Nuan came over and glanced at the security guards whose faces were bruised. “You’ve been warned by the government before you came to me yesterday, haven’t you? Do you come here to intimidate me or try to get something out of me because you’ve already been driven into a corner? By the way, I almost forgot to mention that although MN Group started from the real estate industry, it’s mainly engaged in network technology in the UK in recent years. Although our MN Group is located on the west end of the city and doesn’t seem large, we installed surveillance cameras in every single corner, including the reception room.”
She sat down at the table, put a hand on the table, curled her fingers, and slowly and gently tapped the table. “I’ll report to the police how seriously you injured our security guards. By the way, do you know why I wasn’t in the company yesterday? That’s because I was invited to stay with senior government officials from provincial and municipal governments in a seaside resort. You know I can directly talk to them—Are you sure you still want to make trouble here? If you piss me off, I will try my best to send you guys into prison and make you rot there. Guess who will end up miserably then, you or me?”
The boss of Heng Cheng was completely stupefied.
Ji Nuan went on. “At present, the domestic real estate industry is in a very critical period, and the government needs the cooperation of major companies to regulate this industry. Although Heng Cheng Company has a strong capital chain, you don’t know how to keep a low profile in this industry. You are competing with many wiser and more obedient companies supported by the government, not just our MN Group. The government has long had a problem with you for holding on to every piece of land for the past three years. Now it’s time for you to pay the price. I think you know how you will end up. There are so many promising new companies out there that your company is already doomed. Be wise. You might be able to keep your company’s name if you apologize to the government. If you don’t take action as soon as possible, I’m afraid…”
The real estate industry in China was indeed complicated. Although it developed very well in the past few years, it experienced a housing bubble of more than half a year later. Many people sold off their properties and ended up losing a lot of money. Now all the forces in this industry wanted to come in and get a piece of the pie. If they could keep a low profile, maybe they could hold on for a while, but if they wanted to fight the government for meat before they stood firm, they were committing suicide.
The boss of Heng Cheng didn’t expect these words of wisdom from Ji Nuan, a young woman, who didn’t call the security guards or the police in panic as he expected.
Those few words let him free his grip on a security guard’s clothes. He hesitated and looked at Ji Nuan, who still sat there coldly and indifferently, with no intention of running away from this messy occasion.
She came into the reception room alone and had no one follow her except the security guards who came in before her.
She was so calm and confident that she should really have talked with some senior government officials.
She must know something about the government’s plans, so she was so sure.
Thinking of this, the boss of Heng Cheng glared at Ji Nuan again. “Little girl, you really have guts.”
Ji Nuan smiled. “I’m flattered. It doesn’t matter who has guts, but who can see the trend clearly. Playing dirty won’t make you win. Even if you demolish our MN Group today, you will get nothing. You can do that to vent out, but I suggest putting your money in good use instead of going against MN for the bid you lost. You can do whatever you want to us, but don’t forget the one behind us is not someone you can mess up with. If my memory serves me right, Heng Cheng Group was supposed to be invited to the fair I attended these days, but your place was canceled. Why?”
The face of the boss of Heng Cheng grew darker and darker. He apparently had figured out that he had been abandoned by the government. He had come to understand his situation.
If he insisted on making trouble here, Ji Nuan, who seemed to have “relations” in the government, would probably drive him out of Hai City even though he used to be a gangster. What happened recently had almost destroyed his company.
