Chapter 74

“What do you think? Any ideas yet?” Lu Li asked Chen Xiaoyi with a smile, having brought her over for this very purpose.

Indeed, she’s his best assistant!

“It’s a bit tricky. Zhang Company is much larger than Zhao Company, which we dealt with before. Even though our Lu Company has terminated all cooperation with Zhang Company, a thin camel is bigger than a horse. It’s not easy to bring down Zhang Company.”

Chen Xiaoyi, looking serious in her pencil skirt, little leather shoes, and blazer, stood upright in front of him, perfectly embodying the demeanor of a businesswoman.

Pity she wasn’t wearing a pair of warm black stockings; that would have been more pleasing to the eye for Lu Li.

“Dealing with Zhao Company wasn’t easy, but we can take it step by step, like… creating some difficulties for Zhao Company first, then taking the opportunity to acquire shares of Zhang Company.” Chen Xiaoyi hesitated.

“Do you want me to have dealings with Zhang Ziqin?” Lu Li raised an eyebrow.

Chen Xiaoyi pouted, of course, she hoped not. Just thinking about what Zhang Ziqin did to Lu Li in the past could make her furious.

But Chen Xiaoyi felt helpless! She spread her hands: “That seems to be the most effective method currently. Zhang Company may not compare to our Lu Company, but it’s not just any company. The possibility of bankrupting Zhang Company at once is too small.”

“Ah, indeed!” Lu Li murmured ambiguously. Why else would Zhang Ziqin be the main female character chosen by Ye Chen to enter the domestic market?

Chen Xiaoyi’s eyes flashed with guilt. She walked over to Lu Li and started to speak apologetically.

“I’m sorry for letting you down.”

“It’s nothing, I can always take matters into my own hands!” Lu Li hugged Chen Xiaoyi, winking at her: “How about you wear some black stockings tonight to comfort my soon-to-be wounded soul?”

Chen Xiaoyi’s face turned red: “You’re the president of Lu Company, behave yourself!”

“So what if I am? Can’t the president’s woman wear black stockings for him?” he raised his eyebrows.

“Hmm… You Meng would probably be willing to wear them.” Chen Xiaoyi deflected, her nature being more reserved, those kinds of things weren’t for her.

“She wears them every day, but I want to see you in them.”

“You probably wish it was Yingying who wore them, right?” Chen Xiaoyi gave Lu Li a playful look. His bad intentions were so obvious she might as well have said them herself.

“You caught me, an intestinal worm you are!” Lu Li pretended to be shocked by her guess.

Which man could resist the allure of black stockings? That velvety touch, even the hands would fall in love with it!

“Hmm…”

After some teasing, they returned to the topic at hand.

“Lu Li, are you really planning to act yourself?” Chen Xiaoyi thought Lu Li was going to proceed as she had suggested. The thought of Lu Li getting in touch with Zhang Ziqin made her somewhat uneasy.

“Of course! Just watch your boss’s prowess. You have talent in business, but it’s not enough. Watch closely, learn well. As my deputy, if you can’t offer me strategies, that’s not acceptable!”

“I’m sorry!” Chen Xiaoyi was filled with regret but also realized that Lu Li wasn’t planning to do what she had thought.

Of course not, Lu Li didn’t want any contact with Zhang Ziqin. Otherwise, he would have chosen to deal with her through deceit, which would have been quicker.

He’d rather choose a longer path than have any further contact with Zhang Ziqin.

The treatment for Old Master Cao would need about three months. In those three months, after dealing with Zhang Ziqin, Su Bingqing, and others, he’d head to Magic City.

The Zhang Ziqin matter had dragged on for too long, but recent events had kept him busy. Now, Lu Li didn’t want to wait any longer.

He was very curious to see the expression on the face of the woman so focused on her business when Zhang Company completely collapsed.

Zhang Ziqin, as the main female character in the story, had a very detailed description. Lu Li knew all about the challenges she would face, which of her subordinates were unfaithful, and who had dark histories.

Over the years, Zhang Ziqin had diluted her shares in the company to develop it rapidly, now owning less than fifty percent. Although still the largest shareholder, she was constrained in many ways.

That afternoon, Lu Li directly met with the second-largest shareholder of Zhang Company, bringing Chen Xiaoyi with him, saying he wanted her to learn well, so of course, she had to be by his side.

“Mr. Lu, it’s been a few months, but your presence is as commanding as ever.” The somewhat bald middle-aged man knew Lu Li, who had made quite the stir in recent months.

Especially after taking over Lu Company, his reputation as a spoiled young master completely vanished.

How does that saying go? When you’re successful, everyone around you is a good person.

Lu Li didn’t like beating around the bush in business negotiations: “I want all your shares of Zhang Company, and I’ll pay one dollar for them.”

“Mr. Lu, are you joking with me?” The man squinted his eyes.

“Although I know of Mr. Lu’s capabilities, I, Zhang Hai, have also been in the business world for many years and am not a pushover. If Mr. Lu intends to use this kind of threat to take my shares, then Mr. Lu might just find himself blacklisted by every business in Hangzhou, no, the entire country.”

Chen Xiaoyi tensed up, not understanding what Lu Li was up to. She believed in him, but this was too outrageous – offering one dollar for more than twenty percent of Zhang Company’s shares.

Lu Li, unfazed, pushed the computer towards Zhang Hai: “One dollar, it won’t go any higher. Think it over, Mr. Zhang.”

Without waiting for a response, he grabbed Chen Xiaoyi’s hand to play with.

Chen Xiaoyi’s hands were not delicate; instead, they bore many calluses from hard work, a testament to her past struggles. Maintaining her composure through those hardships, Chen Xiaoyi was indeed remarkable.

Facing Chen Xiaoyi’s worried look, Lu Li gave her a reassuring glance.

“Mr. Lu, where did you get these things?” After a while, Zhang Hai shifted his trembling gaze from the computer screen, his voice quivering, addressing Lu Li with a hint of fear.

“I don’t want to discuss meaningless things. One dollar. Do you sell the shares or not?” Lu Li didn’t want to engage in any more nonsensical talk with this old fox.

They like to play the game of compliments, with you saying a word and me adding another, and you might not even get to the point in an hour.

Zhang Hai bitterly smiled: “Do I have a choice?”
