Chapter 691: Worthy of Uncle Jiang

Seeing this, Jiang Yuanliang looked at the two of them and asked directly: "A-Ci and I were just chatting about whether there are any new investment trends in Longcheng recently. She said you two are currently in the process of an acquisition?"

Shen Ci looked at Uncle Jiang, shocked that he would just ask it so naturally.

Zhou and He were also startled. Their acquisition was being negotiated privately and secretly; they hadn't publicized it to the outside world. How could this Ms. Shen know?

"Ms. Shen is truly well-informed," Boss Zhou said with a smile, his gaze toward Shen Ci adding three parts of scrutiny.

Shen Ci appeared natural on the surface, smiling upon hearing this: "In investment, one must always grasp the first-hand trends. However, your confidentiality work has already been done very well; I only heard about it two days ago."

Because Jiang Yuanliang was present, they didn't dare to underestimate Shen Ci, nor did they dare to lie and deny it. Boss He nodded in admission: "We are indeed negotiating within our limited network of resources."

"How is the progress? Has it been settled?" Jiang Yuanliang asked again, gesturing for the two to sit down and talk.

Zhou and He exchanged a look and took the opportunity to sit down. They saw Boss Zhou smile and say: "It's not that easy; the progress is not optimistic."

Shen Ci only knew that the Qiu family was in talks; she didn't know about other situations.

She asked curiously: "Forgive me for asking, but your 'Yunshang Tiangong' is operating just fine, why are you suddenly selling it?"

"It's not sudden; this is a decision we've discussed for a long time." Boss He said, looking at Jiang Yuanliang and gathering the courage to ask: "Is Chairman Jiang interested? In your eyes, this club might be a small industry not worth mentioning, but the annual profit is still quite good, and it doesn't require too much worry."

"Then you've asked the wrong person." Jiang Yuanliang looked at Shen Ci with a smile and said earnestly: "You should be asking A-Ci; she is the enthusiast for investing in real industry in Longcheng."

Shen Ci suddenly understood at this moment that Uncle Jiang was already helping her push the wave.

The two bosses looked at Shen Ci simultaneously. This little girl who looked to be only in her early twenties, investing in real industry?

But they couldn't doubt Jiang Yuanliang's words, and the fact that this little girl was qualified to have a private meal with Chairman Jiang showed that her identity was definitely not simple.

Perhaps she had a substantial background, who knew.

After the two quickly re-evaluated Shen Ci in their hearts, Boss Zhou spoke first: "Ms. Shen, have you invested in real industries like clubs before?"

Shen Ci raised her eyebrows slightly, not denying it: "Of course. Are you two really completely unfamiliar with me?"

"Uh..."

With one sentence, the two were stumped.

Boss He hesitated and spoke: "I do feel that Ms. Shen's name sounds familiar; I think I've heard it."

Boss Zhou also nodded in agreement: "Me too, but... tsk, I suddenly can't remember it."

"'Shuiyun Jian'." Shen Ci reminded them generously: "I am the owner of 'Shuiyun Jian', Shen Ci!"

Zhou and He widened their eyes instantly, simultaneously revealing expressions of sudden realization.

"Ms. Shen Ci, oh my, look at our memory. How could we forget the name of a competitor's owner?" Boss Zhou said in a joking tone.

Shen Ci also laughed: "It seems my reputation isn't loud enough yet."

"That's not it," Boss He explained: "It's that Ms. Shen is too mysterious, and this is your first time coming to our 'Yunshang Tiangong' to eat, right?"

Shen Ci nodded lightly: "Uncle Jiang happened to be nearby, so we didn't go to my place and just came here instead. Being able to get to know you two because of this can be considered fate."

"That makes sense."

At this time, the waiter began to serve the dishes. Boss Zhou hurriedly ordered: "Our Chinese restaurant's 'Eight Absolute Dishes', pick the ones not ordered on this table and add them."

"Chairman Jiang, Ms. Shen, the 'East Sea Sea Cucumber King' arrived just this morning. Each one is almost as big as my forearm; you must try them."

Boss He said politely: "Then shall we stop disturbing the two of you from eating?"

After speaking, he made a move to stand up.

Shen Ci hurriedly said: "Then let's eat a little together; I still want to learn about your place."

The two paused and subconsciously looked at Jiang Yuanliang, only to see him pick up his tea and take a sip, saying with a smile: "If you haven't finalized this matter, then you might as well talk to A-Ci. With me here, you don't need to worry about anything else; I'll vouch for A-Ci."

"Oh my, what are you saying, Chairman Jiang? Of course we trust Ms. Shen completely." Boss Zhou hurriedly spoke, then explained cautiously: "Actually, we are currently waiting for a reply from Chairman Qiu Hong. He came to chat with us two days ago, but he didn't finalize it on the spot. After all, it's not a small business; he said he would consider it."

Qiu Hong—Jiang Yuanliang couldn't help but nod upon hearing this name.

In Longcheng, he was indeed a person of considerable strength, but he didn't take him seriously. He said immediately: "Things that haven't been finalized don't count."

Shen Ci also took the initiative to speak: "I'm not saying I'm cutting in halfway, but I'm truly interested. Fair competition, whoever settles it first gets it, right?"

"Yes, yes, Chairman Jiang and Ms. Shen are right."

Zhou and He exchanged a look and then both nodded. Boss Zhou looked at Shen Ci and said: "Then shall I chat with Ms. Shen?"

Boss He stood up and walked to the side to call the other partners to explain the situation.

After a meal, Shen Ci had learned almost everything she needed to know. Boss Zhou and Boss He answered her questions without reservation, explaining in great detail.

Finally, the two stood up and shook hands with Shen Ci again, and this time they clearly had more respect for Shen Ci that was born solely for her as an individual.

"Ms. Shen, then is it settled?"

"Of course. With Uncle Jiang here, could you and I treat this matter as child's play? You go ahead and draft the contract, and complete the finishing work before the acquisition as soon as possible. After all, you are waiting for the money, right?"

"Oh my, Ms. Shen is truly straightforward. I didn't expect her to have such courage at such a young age; she is worthy of being a junior praised by Chairman Jiang."

Shen Ci smiled brightly and responded without any humility: "That is natural, so you definitely won't go wrong choosing me."

With one sentence, all of them laughed. After saying goodbye politely, Shen Ci looked at Jiang Yuanliang, her gratitude overflowing.

"Uncle Jiang, thank you!" Shen Ci realized belatedly: "Actually, you knew from the beginning that as long as you appeared here, they would take the initiative to 'deliver themselves to your door', right? That's why you deliberately chose to eat lunch here."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded: "That's right. Isn't this method very simple? It saves time and effort; we finished talking in the time it took to have a meal!"

Shen Ci gave a heartfelt thumbs up. She could also be considered to have understood how Uncle Jiang efficiently utilized his time amidst his busy schedule. For some things, there was no need for overly complicated means; it could be successfully negotiated so simply.

Worthy of Uncle Jiang!
