85: A new business opportunity has emerged: a billion-dollar project.

Lakeside Villa.

Li Jie drove, bringing his wife Xu Ruoyun and his son, Childs nickname.

They were late.

"Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, you're finally here!"

Chen Yang greeted them warmly.

"Brother Jie, Sister-in-law, you've arrived!"

Secretary Wang greeted them with a smile.

Li Jie gave Chen Yang an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, there was traffic on the road, so we're late."

He also nodded toward Secretary Wang.

Chen Yang smiled.

"It's fine, it's great that you could make it. If you were truly too busy, it wouldn't have mattered if you didn't come."

"Given our relationship, we don't need to stand on ceremony."

Li Jie shook his head.

"I absolutely had to come!"

"You are my sworn second brother. If I didn't come, what would that look like?"

"Furthermore, I bear an important mission on this trip."

"I brought greetings from my mother and a gift from my father. How could I not come?"

Chen Yang was overwhelmed by the favor.

"I'm just moving into a new house; I wouldn't dare disturb Aunt Zhang and Uncle Li!"

Li Jie smiled and shook his head.

He walked straight toward the registration desk.

Childs nickname, meanwhile, tugged at Chen Yang's trouser leg and pleaded pitifully:

"Uncle, can you give Childs nickname a hug?"

Chen Yang laughed heartily.

He squatted down and lifted Childs nickname into his arms.

"Alright. Does Childs nickname miss Uncle?"

Childs nickname nodded heavily.

"Yes, Childs nickname misses Uncle every day."

At this moment.

The sweet voice of the etiquette lady rang out across the venue.

"Li Jie and his wife wish Chen Yang: Congratulations on moving into your new home, may you have good fortune and success!"

"Gift: 10,000 yuan in cash."

"Mayor and Mrs. Li wish Chen Yang: Congratulations on your housewarming!"

"Gift: One piece of calligraphy and painting."

"Inscription: Auspicious time and lucky day, moving into a new home, a blessed dwelling, may gold and jade fill your hall, may you soar ten thousand miles, rising straight into the clouds!"

"— Written by Li Zhenjiang at home on a certain year, month, and day, presented to my nephew Chen Yang."

As soon as this was announced.

Most people didn't react.

Zheng Dongshan and Zhang Dajiang, however, shuddered all over.

Who exactly was Chen Yang?

Not only had Secretary Wang, the Mayor's secretary, come.

Now even the Mayors Eldest Son, Li Jie, had arrived.

He even brought his wife and child with him.

Mayor Li Zhenjiang had also inscribed a piece of calligraphy and gifted it to Chen Yang.

The inscription signature was also very unusual.

"My nephew Chen Yang"?

What kind of relationship was this?

They were family!

Zhang Dajiang and Zheng Dongshan exchanged glances.

The same look of shock flashed in their eyes.

Zheng Dongshan didn't even need to offer a warning.

Zhang Dajiang immediately plastered a wide smile onto his face.

Happily, he ran toward Chen Yang.

From afar, he extended both hands.

"Younger Brother Chen, I am truly sorry!"

"I was rash just now. I shouldn't have been so unreasonable over a trivial matter and affected your celebration."

"To express my apologies, I will send a large red envelope shortly to congratulate you on your housewarming!"

Seeing that Chen Yang had no intention of shaking hands.

He awkwardly withdrew his hands.

The smile on his face did not diminish at all.

"It's all my fault for not recognizing a great person. Please forgive me!"

Chen Yang looked coldly at Zhang Dajiang.

He showed no intention of forgiving him.

Just then, Zheng Dongshan ran over, smiling and acting as a mediator.

"My brother, President Zhang already knows his mistake and definitely won't repeat it. Just forgive him this once."

Chen Yang looked at Zheng Dongshan.

Chen Yang pondered briefly and nodded slightly.

His tone was cold.

"For Boss Zheng's sake, don't let there be a next time!"

Zhang Dajiang wiped his sweat and bowed repeatedly.

"I will definitely remember that!"

Zhang Dajiang left dejectedly.

A moment later.

He sent someone to deliver a handbag.

The etiquette lady announced loudly.

"Zhang Dajiang wishes Chen Yang: Congratulations on your housewarming, may you have peace and success!"

"Gift: 500,000 yuan in cash!"

Chen Yang nodded secretly.

That old guy knew what was good for him.

Tallying his total assets.

The 500,000 yuan he had just lost was instantly recovered.

The current total amount.

Not counting the change, it had reached 69.1 million yuan again.

[Ding!]

[Obtained 10 points. Current accumulated points: 660 points. Keep up the good work!]

After dealing with the trouble.

The points were credited in real time.

Only now.

Did everyone present wake up as if from a dream.

How did the previously arrogant Zhang Dajiang suddenly become so docile and obedient?

It seemed to have happened after seeing Li Jie's family.

In that case.

What exactly was Li Jie's identity?

Chen Yang ushered Li Jie's family into the ground floor hall.

He introduced them to Chen Zhongshi and Yang Aihua.

"Mom, Dad, this is my sworn elder brother, Li Jie."

"This is my sister-in-law Xu Ruoyun and my little nephew Childs nickname."

The two elders were a bit surprised!

When did their son become sworn brothers with someone?

However.

They still maintained warm smiles on their faces.

"Welcome, welcome! Please sit!"

Unexpectedly.

Chen Yang continued the introduction:

"Big Brother is the Mayors Eldest Son, and we have a very good relationship."

He then clarified to his father Chen Zhongshi.

"Dad, I told you earlier that I really know the Mayor, but you scolded me. Do you believe me now?"

Clang!

The teacup Chen Zhongshi was holding suddenly dropped onto the table.

His eyes widened.

"The Mayor's... Eldest Son?"

His expression instantly became extremely unnatural.

He didn't know whether he should stand up or sit down.

Yang Aihua was also stunned!

She stared blankly, unable to believe it.

In the hall.

It suddenly became quiet.

Everyone appeared cautious and reserved.

They seemed afraid of disturbing this noble son of a powerful family.

In the perception of ordinary people.

This was absolutely an unattainable big shot.

Li Jie, being experienced, took charge.

He immediately smiled, bowed, and greeted the two elders.

"Uncle, Auntie, hello!"

"I am Chen Yang's sworn elder brother. My parents are both very fond of Yang Zi, so I am your nephew. Please don't treat me as an outsider."

... After Li Jie's efforts.

The atmosphere on site became slightly more relaxed.

His mother, Yang Aihua, secretly nudged her husband.

"Old man, you have nothing to say now, right? Do you want to take our son's surname?"

Chen Zhongshi smiled proudly.

"Didn't I give him his surname?"

"Hehe, I really didn't expect that little brat to be so capable, actually knowing the Mayor."

At this time.

Zheng Dongshan also stopped looking for Zhang Dajiang to discuss business.

He simply stayed at Chen Yang's house and refused to leave.

He even produced 100,000 yuan in cash as a gift, scoring a free housewarming meal.

Chen Yang's total assets reached 69.2 million yuan.

Chen Yang invited Zheng Dongshan to the hall.

Chen Yang accompanied him while drinking tea.

"Boss Zheng, haven't you left for the USA yet?"

"Is it because the properties here haven't been fully dealt with?"

Zheng Dongshan sighed.

"The scale of my business was too large. After several days of effort."

"Most of the properties have been dealt with, leaving only some fixed assets, which are taking a little longer to finalize."

"That's why I came today—to discuss the transfer of the Binhu Amusement Park with Zhang Dajiang."

[Ding!]

[Today's Intel Triggered!]

[Intel 4]: Zheng Dongshan has a five-star hotel, the Moon Bay Grand Hotel, which he is preparing to sell. This is a high-quality asset, and buying it will surely lead to a huge profit.

Chen Yang was delighted.

He silently opened the intel.

The Moon Bay Grand Hotel is located next to the Moon Bay Wetland Park.

It is conveniently situated between the Government Affairs Center and the Business Center.

The location is excellent, traffic is high, and transportation is convenient.

The hotel operation is very successful.

The management team is impressive.

The hotel's profits are enormous, earning a fortune daily.

Many large capital groups coveted it but had never managed to acquire it.

The reason Zheng Dongshan hadn't dealt with it yet was that he was reluctant to part with such a high-quality asset.

"Boss Zheng, I heard you still have a large hotel on your hands?"

Zheng Dongshan looked at Chen Yang suspiciously.

"Why, is Younger Brother Chen interested?"

Chen Yang nodded.

"If Boss Zheng is willing to part with it, I'd like to put forward funds to acquire it."

Zheng Dongshan pondered for a moment.

"To be honest, this hotel is valued at 1 billion yuan by market assessment."

"Younger Brother Chen, do you have that much money?"
