68: Chapter 68 Two Hundred and Four Hundred Billion

If it weren't for the incident at yunjiang bridge.

The Zhou Family might have still been able to compete.

But now.

They completely lacked the surplus financial resources to compete for this plot of land.

This piece of land was now completely out of reach for the Zhou Family.

Just then, Zhou Meiren noticed Zhang Baiyu standing to the side, looking at him with a grin.

A nameless rage suddenly erupted in Zhou Meiren's heart, "What are you looking at? You didn't win the auction either, did you?"

"I didn't win the auction, but I can still compete for the construction rights to this land!"

Hearing this, Zhou Meiren's eyes lit up.

The other party had already spent over twenty billion to win this land.

Presumably, they wouldn't have extra funds for construction.

If possible.

Snatching the construction rights for this land could also yield a huge profit.

Thinking of this, Zhou Meiren immediately ordered his subordinates to investigate this so-called Mr. Zhao.

He wanted to negotiate for the construction rights.

However.

They were not the only ones with this idea; the Zhou Family wasn't alone.

Even the Huxiao Group mobilized simultaneously and began their own investigation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's auction concludes here. We have prepared a banquet in the ballroom on the thirteenth floor. Please proceed to the ballroom to continue our gathering..."

As the lights dimmed.

Everyone stood up one after another and headed toward the ballroom.

Tonight, all the top figures of Yunduan City were gathered here.

Therefore, even after the auction ended.

These people did not leave immediately.

Instead, they continued on to the banquet hall.

After all, such venues were rare.

One could meet more people within the circle.

Some business deals were made in exactly such places.

Moreover, one might meet an even more impressive big shot who could offer some guidance.

That would save decades of detours.

Meanwhile, Zhao Feiyu.

Was at the back of the auction venue, taking stock of his recent acquisitions.

"Deliver all these items to this lady's address!"

After the auction concluded, the venue.

Had a dedicated Security Company responsible for transporting all auctioned items.

After having everything delivered to Sister Lang.

Zhao Feiyu also heard the system's notification.

[Total consumption: 12 billion. Twenty times cashback: 240 billion.]

Hearing the system's notification, Zhao Feiyu couldn't help but feel a bit of regret.

It was a pity that the money for the North Suburb Power Plant land couldn't be spent on Sister Lang.

Otherwise, even with a 20x cashback, he could have received 500 billion.

However, Zhao Feiyu quickly put the matter out of his mind.

A greedy heart is never satisfied.

One must not be too greedy.

"Let's go, let's head to the banquet hall and take a look."

Zhao Feiyu took Sister Lang directly to the banquet hall.

As soon as they entered, they saw hundreds of people chatting in small groups of three or five.

The banquet hall used a buffet format.

As a gathering of Yunduan City's elite, the buffet here was incredibly lavish.

The massive banquet hall, spanning thousands of meters, was lined with seafood and other rich foods.

Seeing this, Zhao Feiyu's appetite was immediately whetted.

He then started eating on his own.

Seeing this, Sister Lang couldn't help but feel amused.

He could casually spend tens of billions at an auction.

Yet here, he was acting like a child.

And just as Zhao Feiyu was eating with gusto.

A familiar voice came from behind him.

"Zhao Feiyu? How did you sneak in here?"

Turning around, he saw Li Shanshan and two others standing not far away, looking at him with expressions of disgust.

Zhao Feiyu glanced at them indifferently, then picked up a piece of salmon and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Zhao Feiyu's dismissive attitude immediately enraged Li Shanshan.

She walked over quickly, grabbed Zhao Feiyu by the collar, and shouted, "What kind of place do you think this is? Is this somewhere you can just wander into? And you have the nerve to blatantly freeload here!"

"Li Shanshan, are you f***ing sick? What business is it of yours how I got in?"

Zhao Feiyu shoved Li Shanshan aside and prepared to leave.

But unexpectedly, Li Shanshan refused to let it go and blocked his path.

"Tell me the truth, how exactly did you sneak in?"

"I can't be bothered with you!"

Zhao Feiyu walked around Li Shanshan and continued forward.

However, this attempt to avoid trouble.

Only made Li Shanshan think that Zhao Feiyu had something to hide.

"Security, security!"

Li Shanshan immediately revealed a malicious smile.

"Come quickly, there's a freeloader here!"

Soon, three security guards rushed over.

After all, this was a banquet hall for Yunduan City's elite.

The security measures were quite good.

"Miss, what happened?"

"He, he snuck in to freeload!"

Li Shanshan pointed at Zhao Feiyu and shouted.

This action immediately drew the attention of the people around them.

The three security guards walked over quickly, blocked Zhao Feiyu, and said, "Sir, please show us your invitation."

Faced with such an unreasonable request from the security guards.

Zhao Feiyu threw the invitation directly into Li Shanshan's face. "Li Shanshan, for the sake of old times, I didn't want to deal with you, but you've repeatedly caused me trouble. Don't think I'm easy to bully!"

Seeing the invitation on the floor, Li Shanshan said unconvinced, "Who knows if it's real or fake!"

"Exactly. What kind of occasion is this tonight? Who knows what you're planning to do after sneaking in?"

Li Meimei, standing on the side, chimed in with a sarcastic tone.

Zhao Feiyu looked over at her.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The information for both Li Shanshan and Li Meimei immediately appeared in his mind.

And their favorability ratings were truly laughable.

[Li Shanshan: 26]

[Beauty: 86]

[Favorability: -100]

...

[Li Meimei: 24]

[Beauty: 85]

[Favorability: -50]

...

I really didn't expect their favorability toward me to be negative.

No wonder they were always at odds with me whenever they saw me.

This favorability rating was practically that of a sworn enemy!

"I really didn't expect to see you in Yunduan City; you really are like ghosts that refuse to leave!"

Zhao Feiyu sighed and said with a helpless expression.

"However, the Zhou Family is about to be finished. I'll see what you do then!"

"Bullshit!"

Li Shanshan's expression changed instantly upon hearing this.

"The Zhou Family won't be finished! Zhou Meiren has already found that Mr. Zhao who lit the heaven lamp. Mr. Zhao has already agreed to hand the construction rights over to the Zhou Family, and the Zhou Family has already settled the matter of the yunjiang bridge!"

"What?"

Zhao Feiyu's eyes widened in surprise.

"That Mr. Zhao gave the construction rights to the Zhou Family? When did this happen?"

Seeing Zhao Feiyu's surprised reaction, Li Shanshan immediately became smug.

"Just now, Zhou Meiren already told us, and he even promised Li Dong a portion of the project. By then, our Li Family will have completely turned things around in Yunduan City!"

Hearing this, Zhao Feiyu burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at? Do you think just because your surname is Zhao, you're that Mr. Zhao who lit the heaven lamp?"

Li Shanshan crossed her arms and said with disdain.

"Li Shanshan, oh Li Shanshan, I'll tell you this: the Zhou Family will never get these so-called construction rights!"

Zhao Feiyu said in an extremely certain tone.

"Who says it's impossible!"

Just then, Zhou Meiren walked over from a distance with a group of people.
