173: Chapter 173 I'm just messing with you!

"This contract is a template. If you have any extra requirements, you can tell me, and I'll have my secretary make the changes."

Shen Yan didn't even look, saying directly, "Change what? I think this template looks quite good. Let's just sign based on this template."

This was a seven-hundred-million acquisition contract!

This rash?

Wang Tian was secretly shocked while waving his large hand over the contract and signing his name on the acquisition agreement.

Regardless of whether there were any issues with the acquisition contract, it had nothing to do with him. As long as he could get the money, that was all that mattered.

Thinking this, he handed the signed acquisition contract to Shen Yan and said with a fawning smile, "CEO Shen, it's your turn."

Shen Yan slowly picked up the acquisition contract, looked it over and over, and then began to praise, "Wang Tian, your signature practice is quite good. Did you specifically take lessons?"

Wang Tian laughed heartily and said humbly, "No, no. My signature isn't as nice as yours, and my name doesn't sound as good as yours either."

After speaking, he looked eagerly at Shen Yan's hand, anticipating that Shen Yan would quickly sign his name and transfer the money to finalize the matter.

His intention was too obvious.

Shen Yan saw through it immediately.

So, he placed the acquisition contract on the table, picked up the pen, and was about to sign the acquisition contract.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Thirty seconds passed.

The tip of the fountain pen still hadn't moved over the signature line on the acquisition contract.

Seeing this, Wang Tian suppressed the impatience in his heart and asked Shen Yan flatteringly, "CEO Shen, is there a problem with the contract? If you think there's an issue, I'll have my secretary revise it right now."

Hearing this, Shen Yan tossed the pen aside and burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha hahaha!"

Seeing him suddenly laugh so happily, Wang Tian inexplicably had a bad premonition.

"Why is CEO Shen suddenly laughing so happily? Is there some inappropriate clause in the acquisition contract?"

Shen Yan shook his head while still laughing.

"No, no. There are no overly drawn-out clauses in the acquisition contract. It's just that I suddenly don't feel like signing it anymore."

Wang Tian's face stiffened.

The bad premonition grew stronger.

He forced a slight smile and asked Shen Yan, "Why the sudden change of heart about signing? Didn't we agree? Once the contract is signed, you transfer the seven hundred million to me, and I'll give you the company..."

Shen Yan blinked and replied innocently.

"We did agree, but I suddenly don't want to sign now. What can be done?"

What do you mean you suddenly don't want to sign the contract? Isn't he just playing with him?!

Wang Tian exploded in anger and slammed the table as he stood up.

"Shen Yan! You're playing with me, aren't you?!"

Shen Yan looked at him with a beaming smile, articulating word by word, "That's right. I am playing with you. So what? Is it fun?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Tian's chest heaved rapidly. Shaking his hand, he pointed at Shen Yan and shouted, "Running all this way just to play with me, are you out of your mind?!"

Shen Yan sighed and shook his head.

"That's not quite right. How could I run all this way just to play with you? I really came here to discuss cooperation with you."

"It's just... what I want to discuss with you isn't the seven-hundred-million acquisition contract, but a fifty-thousand acquisition contract."

Hearing this, Wang Tian's eyes widened. He couldn't believe what he had just heard.

"What did you say? Fifty thousand?"

"How can a listed company be worth only fifty thousand! What kind of nonsense are you spouting?"

A flash of golden light flickered in Shen Yan's eyes. He retracted the smile from his face and asked back with extreme seriousness, "You could offer a price of seven hundred million, so why can't I offer a price of fifty thousand?"

Having said that, he curled his lips again.

"To be honest, when you first shouted out one hundred million, I already thought it was exaggerated. But I didn't expect you to keep raising the price again and again, eventually shouting it up to seven hundred million."

"It seems like you either think I'm an idiot or you think I'm a complete sucker."

Wang Tian felt a bit guilty.

He hadn't intended to shout such a high price initially. It was because Shen Yan looked like he would agree no matter how high he set the price that he kept raising it.

But no matter what, he would never agree to sell the company to Shen Yan for fifty thousand.

This was a listed company!

The assets he had already transferred away were worth more than fifty thousand!

How could he possibly sell the company to Shen Yan for fifty thousand?

Thinking this, he cleared his throat, pointed to the office door, and said, "If you want to discuss this, then we have nothing more to say to each other. Get out of here immediately!"

Shen Yan calmly took out a set of documents from the briefcase he brought with him.

"Why the rush to kick me out? You haven't even looked at the materials I specially brought for you yet."

Wang Tian frowned, not understanding why Shen Yan would bring documents for him to see.

Could it be that Shen Yan really thought showing him some documents would make him agree?

While thinking, he impatiently glanced at the documents on the desk.

With just one look, he noticed something was wrong.

"What is this?!"

He snatched up the documents from the desk and glared at Shen Yan, his eyes almost splitting.

Seeing his strong reaction, Shen Yan's smile widened.

"Don't you already know what these documents are?"

Wang Tian trembled and said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Shen Yan sighed.

"Don't stay silent. Hurry up and look. There's another set of documents after you finish this one."

Wang Tian couldn't take it anymore.

These documents were full of evidence of him transferring assets.

Every glance made him feel one step closer to jail.

He gritted his jaw and asked Shen Yan, "Shen Yan, what exactly do you want?"

Shen Yan dropped the smile from his face and replied to Wang Tian with utmost seriousness, "Didn't I make myself clear? I want to buy your company for fifty thousand."

As soon as the words fell, Wang Tian quickly refused, "Impossible!"

Saying that, his eyes filled with pleading.

"CEO Shen, you also know this company isn't just mine. Even if I agree, the other shareholders won't. How about this, you raise the price a bit more, and then I'll cover the rest of the money..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Yan interrupted him.

"I recall... you just made a call to the other shareholders to confirm the situation, right? Coincidentally, I have their numbers in my phone too. I'll go ask them as well..."

Before the last word faded.

Wang Tian immediately dropped to his knees with a thud.

"CEO Shen! You are magnanimous, please just let me go!"

Shen Yan looked genuinely surprised.

"CEO Wang, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling down to me?"

"Come, come, quickly get up!"

That's what he said, but he showed no intention of getting up to help Wang Tian up.
