"Reduced to driving a Bentley?" Upon hearing this sentence, everyone's expression turned as if they had eaten shit.
What does it mean to be reduced to driving a Bentley? In the eyes of someone like Zhang Menglong, was driving a Bentley now something to be looked down upon? They, too, wished to be so "reduced," but who would give them such an opportunity to fall from grace?
"It's only been four years and it's come to this. In another two years, will I be 'reduced' to driving a Maserati?" Zhang Menglong continued with his sarcastic tone.@@@@
The staff of Huabang Group all forced bitter smiles. Their chairman's car was a Maserati, a person whom they looked up to, and even he didn't meet Zhang Menglong's standards?
"Mr. Zhang, you've misunderstood," the elderly man said to Zhang Menglong, "Our young master simply prefers to keep a low profile. He doesn't wish to be too ostentatious. These few Bentleys are in fact the worst cars in the young master's garage."
"The worst cars?" Zheng Hefeng's face had already contorted to the point of near paralysis.
These Bentleys were all Continentals and GTs, each worth no less than three million upon purchase. Zheng Hefeng, though capable, had not earned three million since graduating.
As for his father, he drove a car worth just under two million, which was the cheapest car in Xing Zhe's family.
He had just been belittling Xing Zhe's family for not being good enough for Chen Qiuyi. If even a family like Xing Zhe's wasn't good enough, then what was Zheng Hefeng? A beggar?
Remembering his own words from a moment ago, Zheng Hefeng's face burned with shame. The Panamera he had just mentioned suddenly lost all its allure.
"Idiot, what kind of research is this? You can't even find out their family background!" Zheng Hefeng ground his teeth in anger.
"Mr. Zhang mentioned that someone was insulting our young master just now?" The old man's face suddenly turned extremely gloomy, and the burly men in suits immediately fixed their gaze on Zheng Hefeng in the car.
"No... You've all misunderstood, I..." Zheng Hefeng suddenly sweated profusely as fear seeped down his back.
Just these few most ordinary cars had a total value of over ten million. If we dare assume, the total value of all the cars in their family might well be over a hundred million.
If just the cars are worth over a hundred million, then how much is their house? How much money must their family have? How big must their company be?
"He's probably like Zhang Menglong, having grown up here since he was small, but his real background must be unfathomable!" Zheng Hefeng even started to wonder if Huabang Group could withstand it if Xing Zhe wanted to take revenge.
Hearing Zhang Menglong's words, Chen Qiuyi also couldn't help but hold back her laughter. With her quick wits, she of course knew these were all Zhang Menglong's manipulative moves. After all these years, Zhang Menglong's personality was still as playful as ever.
"Since that's the case, then... well, alright, young master, if you ever feel like not going to work and want to take over the family business, just let me know, I'll come to pick you up anytime!"
"Let's go!" The elder sighed, and several Bentleys swiftly departed.
"Xing Zhe, where are you working now? I remember it's a construction company too, right?"
"Oh, a small company, Huabang Construction," Xing Zhe came back to his senses and said.
Zhang Menglong took out his phone and directly called Mayor Zhu, "Uncle Zhu, am I disturbing you?"
"Haha, Menglong, not at all, is there something you need?"
"Oh, it's like this. The construction project for my factory area was given to Haisheng Group, right?"
"Yes, what's up?"
"It's like this, don't let them take that order, give it to Huabang Construction instead."
"Huabang Construction?" Mayor Zhu was taken aback, he hadn't even heard the name of this company before, and immediately had his assistant look up information on this company.
"Such a small company?" Mayor Zhu said, "Menglong, although this company has a good reputation, its scale is too small. They probably can't even afford the initial construction materials with their financial resources!"
"No problem, I can pay the construction funds in advance; paying everything in one installment is also okay," Zhang Menglong said.
"Since that's the case, then there's no issue. I'll go arrange it now," Mayor Zhu couldn't help but ask another question, "Do you have a conflict with the people from Haisheng Group?"
Mayor Zhu was no fool. Zhang Menglong would definitely not let a small, unheard-of company replace Haisheng, a well-established big enterprise, to take on a multibillion-dollar project for no reason.
"Check out this Huabang Construction for me," Mayor Zhu whispered to his secretary, "See if there's any of Zhang Menglong's friends or classmates or something in that company."
"Oh, actually, it's nothing," Zhang Menglong said with a laugh, "I just forgot to bring paper when I went to the bathroom today, and I'm in a bad mood."
