Liu Tianxiong, as one of the two hegemonic overlords of Jing'an, said he would wipe out Wang Mazi's Shenying Security Group, and it wasn't a joke—in fact, he truly had the strength to do it.
Wang Mazi had been in business for so many years, but his influence was confined to Jing'an City alone, whereas Liu Tianxiong's Liu Corporation not only had dominated Jing'an for years but had expanded throughout Tiannan Province, affecting the entire Southwest.
The strength of the two parties was incomparable. Xu Hao was soone even Liu Tianxiong wouldn't dare to provoke. If soone else had made that statent, maybe people wouldn't have believed it, but now, Liu Tianxiong had said it himself in front of so many people.
All the guests at the scene suddenly looked at Xu Hao with changed eyes.
Shock? Admiration? Surprise?
Especially the bosses and managers Liu Ruyan had introduced to Xu Hao earlier, who now regretted their actions deeply. If they had known, they would have tried to ingratiate themselves with Xu Hao, but there was no dicine for regret; things had already developed to this point, so they could only let nature take its course.
Upon hearing Liu Tianxiong release such a ruthless statent, Wang Mazi glanced again at the young man in a white T-shirt beside Liu Tianxiong—a personal bodyguard who had gained quite a reputation in Jing'an recently.
Although this young man didn't speak, his re presence was like a sharp arrow, and the intangible pressure made even Wang Mazi feel suffocated.
The muscles on his face twitched a few tis, and Wang Mazi let out a helpless snort of contempt, "President Liu, today I, Mister Wang, will give you face, and I won't make things difficult for Xu Hao!"
As his words paused, when he turned back to Xu Hao again, it was filled with resentnt, "Young Master Xu, mountains long, rivers wide—the days ahead are lengthy. I hope you won't fall into my hands."
Xu Hao had no fondness for soone like Wang Mazi, "Grandpa Ma, I'm warning you too, you'd best not ss with , for I... you cannot afford to provoke!"
If this had been earlier, Xu Hao wouldn't have dared to speak such ruthless words, but now Xu Hao was gradually realizing the power behind his mysterious father, which completely exceeded his imagination. A business tyrant like Liu Tianxiong was willing to serve under him, and Wang Zhong had even said that Liu Tianxiong was no more than a dog to the mysterious old man, not even worthy of being called a dog.
And most importantly, Xu Hao's own bloodline had awakened, and his body now contained an imnsely powerful treasury. He had glimpsed only the tip of the iceberg and had already beco so strong that he could knock out a child with a single punch. So, what was Grandpa Ma, this weakling, even worth?
Wang Mazi snorted coldly and called his brothers and those beaten bodyguards on the ground, "A bunch of good-for-nothings, let's go!"
Having faced such a loss of face today, Wang Mazi saw no point in staying any longer, and with his band of brothers, vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Thus, the farce ca to such a conclusion. Yun Feiyang wiped the cold sweat on his face and hastily ca over to Xu Hao, bowing slightly, "Young Master Xu, my apologies, today was my oversight at work!"
Xu Hao casually waved his hand, "It's not your fault; this is a private matter between Wang Mazi and myself!"
Liu Ruyan stood beside Xu Hao, her gaze at him sowhat complex. The Xu Hao who used to be unassertive could now get acquainted with prominent figures like Wu Zhongcai and Liu Tianxiong and make them obediently listen to him; he even had the guts to stand up to Wang Mazi.
Liu Ruyan didn't know whether she should be happy or have other feelings!
Liu Ruyan's feelings were complicated. Her husband had beco so outstanding—back then, she had been so indifferent to him. Would she be able to keep Xu Hao in the future? Content sourced from * – My Virtual Library Empire.
Liu Tianxiong, Wu Zhongcai, Yun Feiyang, Liu Ruyan, Xu Hao, and others exchanged pleasantries for a while before Yun Feiyang pointed to a partitioned passage inside and said, "President Liu, Young Master Xu, before the charity banquet officially begins, there is an internal antique trading fair. Would any of you be interested in having a look?"
An internal antique trading fair?
Xu Hao's eyes lit up involuntarily; his vision had undergone huge changes, allowing him to see the floating light on the surface of a raw stone to determine if there was jadeite within. So, encountering antiques and those curios, could he also discern whether they were genuine or fake?
Xu Hao was eager to try, "Then I'll go have a look. President Liu, General Manager Wu, would you like to go?"
Wu Zhongcai quickly waved his hand and said, "I'll pass, I just ca out from there!"
Liu Tianxiong smiled faintly, "Young Master Xu, Miss Liu, General Manager Wu, and I have so matters to discuss. Why don't you go in and have a look by yourself?"
Previously, the collaboration between Liu Tianxiong and Liu Corporation hadn't been too substantial, but now, with Xu Hao's identity confird, Liu Tianxiong naturally wanted to curry favor with Liu Corporation.
As for the business affairs of the Liu Corporation, Xu Hao didn't want to intervene too much for the ti being. He nodded to Liu Ruyan, "Alright then, you discuss, I'll go in and take a look first!"
Guided by Yun Feiyang, Xu Hao quickly walked through the corridor and entered another large hall inside. Several long tables were haphazardly set up in the trading hall, and sporadically throughout, dozens of people stood, each holding antiques in their hands, bargaining and trading with the people around them.
Yun Feiyang had initially looked down on this son-in-law of Liu City Corporation, but after Wu Zhongcai and Liu Tianxiong had made it clear that Xu Hao's identity was extraordinary, Yun Feiyang's attitude toward Xu Hao naturally changed.
While leading Xu Hao into the hall, Yun Feiyang was sowhat ingratiating, "Young Master Xu, feel free to look around. All the antiques here are for internal free trade. Over there is our Yun Family's notary office, where you can trade on the spot."
As Yun Feiyang was still introducing the place, they heard a quarrel breaking out inside the hall. The two conflicting parties turned out to be acquaintances!
One of them was actually Zhao Feng?
A university classmate in the sa dorm room number as Xu Hao, who had spoken up for Xu Hao at the last class reunion!
But now, Zhao Feng seed to be in trouble, squaring off against another of Xu Hao's university classmates, Qi Jun, the class chief.
Qi Jun had been embarrassed by Xu Hao at the class reunion and had been severely taught a lesson by Wu Yu, thrown out with no place to vent his anger.
With an arrogant look, Qi Jun said to Zhao Feng, "Young Master Zhao, in consideration of our being classmates, this porcelain vase you damaged is clearly priced at 200,000. You see, you've scratched a mark on it, and I probably won't be able to sell this vase now. So, I'll sell it to you for 200,000. Pay up quickly."
On the table sat a porcelain vase that appeared to be from the Qing Dynasty, though it seed to have a slight crack on it.
Infuriated, Zhao Feng retorted, "Qi Jun, do you have no sha? This is a scam, extortion... I clearly only touched that vase just now, how could the crack be caused by ?"
