298: Chapter 297 Who is this? 298: Chapter 297 Who is this? Liao Qian Ji was feeling a tad disgruntled. Glaring at Liu Hun, she said, “When you were getting involved with Mingjie, you used to like this sort of thing! Now you won’t even admit it!” “Cough cough cough...” Liu Hun felt like he was about to choke on his own saliva. It took him a while to respond to Liao Qian Ji, “The thing with Mingjie was... a matter of taste! Taste, do you understand? It was... sexy and charming. But this is... cute.” “Isn’t being ‘Mengmeng cute’ also good?” Liao Qian Ji felt a bit indignant and sat right next to Liu Hun, staring intently at his face as she asked, “Don’t you like this style?” Liu Hun quickly shook his head, adamantly shaking his head as he said, “I swear to the Party and the people, I do not like it.” “Don’t know how to appreciate. What on earth is in your head!” Liao Qian Ji, on the contrary, spoke with a face full of dissatisfaction, “Forget it, let’s talk business. It’s a waste of effort!” Although Liu Hun genuinely felt that today’s Liao Qian Ji was indeed prettier than before and had more of a feminine charm, he couldn’t say that, because he completely didn’t understand Liao Qian Ji’s way of thinking. “I found a secret overseas bank account belonging to Qiao Guangbi, which has frequent contacts with a domestic company,” said Liao Qian Ji to Liu Hun. She was quite dissatisfied, but when it came to business, she had to speak. The situation was getting muddier; the influence behind Qiao Guangbi sure had spread wide. Liu Hun thought to himself, wondering how many more monsters and demons would emerge after Qiao Guangbi’s death, and he promptly asked Liao Qian Ji, “Can you check that company?” Liao Qian Ji rolled her eyes at him viciously and said, “Do you really think I need you to tell me that? I’ve already checked.” After saying that, she took out a laptop, opened it, and continued speaking to Liu Hun, “The company is called Feiteng Holding, and the chairman is someone named Flying Dust.” “What a peculiar name,” Liu Hun couldn’t help but feel there was a story behind this person. He continued to ask Liao Qian Ji, “Is there anything else?” “Nothing special,” Liao Qian Ji finished speaking, was about to close the laptop, then suddenly said to Liu Hun, “Oh right, Feiteng Holding has a business that is the same as one of Qiao Guangbi’s industries.” “What?” Liu Hun was very interested. “Pharmaceuticals! Qiao Guangbi owned shares in Shennong Pharmaceutical, and Feiteng Holding owns forty percent of Green Power Pharmaceutical,” Liao Qian Ji said seriously to Liu Hun. Finding the information without looking for it is such a stroke of luck! Liu Hun hadn’t expected to come across such important information on this trip. If this Flying Dust wasn’t part of Qiao Guangbi’s circle, he was at least somehow related, and Green Power Pharmaceutical was the company they were planning to negotiate with in three days. Liu Hun mused to himself that this was like a sweater that had unraveled; it was time to find the loose end and start pulling. “Qian Ji, let’s shift our focus now and put the investigation emphasis on Green Power Pharmaceutical and Feiteng Holding. No matter what, we must gather as much information on these two companies as possible, especially the dirty secrets they’re hiding!” Liu Hun said to Liao Qian Ji. He was already quite familiar with Liao Qian Ji, so he spoke frankly, not feeling the need to beat around the bush. “You’re so direct. I’ll let you know when I have news!” Liao Qian Ji had an unmistakably proud expression on her face. “Great, please let me know if there’s news. I have to meet someone important now,” Liu Hun said to Liao Qian Ji, then walked to the door. “Who is it?!” Liao Qian Ji asked with genuine concern. She didn’t know when she had become so attentive to Liu Hun. “A business partner,” Liu Hun said, and then he left Liao Qian Ji’s home. After Liu Hun left, Liao Qian Ji kept pondering his words. Thinking for a long while, her face suddenly flushed red, and then she stripped off all her clothes, and her ample breasts bounced out. Liao Qian Ji dug out a set of clothes from the back of her wardrobe, which she paired with two fans and a kimono-style overcoat. After hesitating for a long time, she finally steeled her resolve and muttered to herself, “Mai Shiranui, this should do the trick!” Liu Hun was going to meet an old friend whom he hadn’t seen for a long time. He arrived at the doorstep of a villa and rang the doorbell. Soon, a middle-aged man opened the door with a cheerful smile, “Director Liu, please come in!” “Director Cui, long time no see!” Liu Hun entered with a smile. This was the home of Cui Chengpeng, a director of Hu Group and also Liu Hun’s business partner. The interior was classically and elegantly decorated, resembling a well-aged cup of tea with deep sediment. “Have a seat. Director Liu has been quite the up-and-comer lately, one big move after another,” Cui Chengpeng said with a smile as he poured Liu Hun a cup of tea. Liu Hun eyed the intricate tea set before him, never realizing that one could play so many tricks with tea drinking. He chuckled and said, “Nothing escapes Director Cui’s discerning eye.” “Haha, with your current net worth and strength, looking across the nation, you wouldn’t find five people of your age who have achieved as much,” Cui Chengpeng said, then shifted his tone, “But I have to remind you, the further you go, the more cautious you have to be. Business is like a battlefield; you have to watch out for bullets flying from any direction. One misstep can mean no coming back.” Liu Hun truly felt grateful towards Cui Chengpeng and thought that he should communicate more with him in the future. “Director Cui, the reason I came today is to consult with you on a very important matter.” “Oh? Let’s hear it.” Cui Chengpeng perked up, putting on a serious demeanor to listen to Liu Hun. “I am planning to have Wanbao Village’s cordyceps sold through Green Power Pharmaceutical’s pharmacy, so I’d like to hear your opinion on Green Power Pharmaceutical,” Liu Hun asked Cui Chengpeng. He felt like a blindfolded eagle—if he dove into the water without looking, he couldn’t be sure if he would catch a fish or hit his beak. Cui Chengpeng felt somewhat surprised and asked, “Don’t you have a stake in Shennong Pharmaceutical? And the stake Qiao Guangbi had was not a small one; he had full control over Herbal Pharmacy. Why go through all the trouble when you have something closer at hand?” Liu Hun sighed and shook his head, “Qiao Guangbi was murdered; the police are still investigating the case. All his assets are now frozen. No telling when I’ll be able to use them—it could take an eternity.” “So that’s how it is, I thought Qiao Guangbi’s murder wouldn’t have much impact,” Cui Chengpeng said, then slowly stood up and went to the study. Liu Hun did not understand Cui Chengpeng’s actions, but soon saw him coming out with a laptop, smiling at Liu Hun, “Getting old, memory isn’t what it used to be. Some things are too complex, gotta have a place to jot them down.” After turning on the laptop, Cui Chengpeng laid out the ins and outs of Green Power Pharmaceutical in full detail. After listening, Liu Hun felt like an elder telling you where to find things in the mountains, and when you go there, you actually find them, full of surprises. Green Power Pharmaceutical originated from a state-owned company, barely surviving on government support. After privatizing and being sold to a private owner, it sprang back to life. Then, with the rise of real estate, Green Power Pharmaceutical’s funds were invested there. When the real estate bubble burst, the company was buried along with it. “After that, Green Power Pharmaceutical’s former chairman, Fang Xiong, sold the company. But why didn’t he sell it to one buyer?” Liu Hun didn’t understand Fang Xiong’s approach. “Hahaha...” Cui Chengpeng suddenly burst into laughter, “That’s where Fang Xiong’s brilliance lies. He sold part of the equity to White Medicine Pharmaceutical Group, another part to Feiteng Holding, and kept a portion for himself. This way, he could play both sides and use one to check the other, ensuring his own survival without being devoured.” He’s another schemer, Liu Hun mused silently, and then asked Cui Chengpeng, “Why didn’t Fang Xiong sell it all at once? Why keep some for himself?” “Fang Xiong is not a simple character, plus he has unique insights and a long-term vision for biopharmaceuticals,” Cui Chengpeng said with a hint of emotion in his tone. Listening to Cui Chengpeng, Liu Hun guessed, “Director Cui, you must have had dealings with this Fang Xiong, right?” “Hahaha! You got me, kid. Do you want an introduction?” Cui Chengpeng said with a laugh. He had always admired Liu Hun’s abilities and insight. Seeing that Liu Hun didn’t immediately respond, Cui Chengpeng continued, “You’re holding Shennong Pharmaceutical and have Wanbao Village’s prime feng shui land. Moving towards high-end biopharmaceuticals is the inevitable trend. If you want to plan for this field, you’d better start early.” “Great! Then I’ll trouble Director Cui to make an introduction,” Liu Hun replied with a smile. To catch fish, you need a rod, a hook, and bait. In this respect, he felt that if Fang Xiong was willing to lend his support, there would be a lot of room for achievement in the biopharmaceutical industry in the future. After dinner that evening at a five-star hotel, Liu Hun realized that he had oversimplified things. As the saying goes, a twisted melon isn’t sweet—Fang Xiong had no interest in collaborating, and Liu Hun didn’t press the matter. “Hahaha, Executive Liu, Fang Xiong lives up to his name—a colossus in his own right, he submits only to an overlord, not to any lord. I’ve known him for many years, and I do hope he joins us,” Cui Chengpeng said, patting Liu Hun’s shoulder. His expectations for Liu Hun went beyond this—Fang Xiong was a test! “Ding ding ding! Ding ding ding!” Liu Hun picked up the phone and saw it was Liao Qianji’s number. With no immediate hope of winning over Fang Xiong, he excused himself from Cui Chengpeng and went to Liao Qianji’s home. When he knocked on Liao Qianji’s door, Liu Hun was befuddled once again. He stuck his head out to check the door number, and hadn’t gotten it wrong. So who was this doll-like girl from Japan dressed in strange attire? “Can’t you show some common sense? This is Mai Shiranui’s outfit! Get in quick, don’t let others see you,” Liao Qianji, dressed in a traditional Japanese style, said as she pulled Liu Hun into the house. Liu Hun felt completely out of sync with Liao Qianji’s pace and realized they were not on the same wavelength, “Qian Ji, you didn’t call me over just to admire your costume, did you?”
