Chapter 315: Ahua Seeks Help
That night, Tang Zhudi and Wang Baiman had a huge argument.
In the end, the two ended up sleeping in separate rooms.
Because several of Wang Baiman's household servants are elderly who have worked for many years, Tang Zhudi pays them a decent salary.
The servants are fairly loyal.
Chen Mo did not send anyone to bribe them, so he knows nothing about the argument's details.
The news that the two slept separately was later extracted by Cheng Wenjing from Tang Zhudi.
However, Chen Mo doesn't care whether Tang Zhudi and Wang Baiman actually slept apart.
What Chen Mo cares about is another piece of information Cheng Wenjing told him.
From Tang Zhudi, Cheng Wenjing learned that Tang Zhudi remains resolute, refuses to sell shares, and wants to wait until Chen Mo's people take over the company, then use her shareholder rights to sabotage the company.
But Wang Baiman's attitude has already diverged from Tang Zhudi's.
Although he still refuses to sell shares, he wants to be a quiet shareholder.
After all, with Chen Mo's wealth, running Prosperous Real Estate well is a very easy task.
On the other hand, thanks to his shares, the annual company dividend is at least several tens of millions.
Having money means he doesn't have to work daily running the company, and he has plenty of time each day to play cards and chase women.
Such days are truly good days!
Regarding this, Chen Mo says Wang Baiman is day‑dreaming.
Who wouldn't want to live like that!
He still wants to.
"How are Ahua's matters going? It's been a week already, why is Wang Baiman still out partying?"
Wang Baiman's dream spurred Chen Mo, and he couldn't help but ask Liu Li Li nearby.
He, Chen Great Prosperity, the leader, stock‑market prodigy, business tycoon, billionaire, never dared to have such a dream of just taking money without working; yet Wang Baiman actually did it?
Liu Li Li didn't know what had spurred Chen Mo, and suddenly started urging Ahua's task.
She answered honestly: "No news has come from Ahua's side; maybe they haven't started yet. Shall we give him a call to urge him?"
"Okay, give him a nudge. Ask if there's any difficulty; if not, I'll find someone else to help him."
In the past, the tasks assigned to Ahua were always handled cleanly and efficiently.
This time it's been delayed over a week, making Chen Mo wonder if something unexpected happened on Ahua's side.
"Alright, I'll call now," Liu Li Li said, getting up and leaving Chen Mo's office.
A few minutes later, Liu Li Li returned.
"I asked Ahua; he said there's no difficulty and he'll start in the next few days."
"That's good."
Having received Liu Li Li's reply, Chen Mo stopped worrying about the matter and focused on the ledger before him.
As a leader and the actual head of the group, although Chen Mo delegated many concrete tasks, he still has to review the accounts and reports.
There are still many matters that require his personal decision.
He's also very busy!
Meanwhile, in a bar a few streets away.
Ahua had just hung up the phone and began glaring at Wu Ying.
"Brother Ahua, is Mo Ge getting impatient?"
Ahua looked at Wu Ying, helplessly nodded: "Sister Li's call, Mo Ge has already started urging."
"What should we do?" Wu Ying, hearing Ahua say that, paced anxiously in the office.
"Wang Baiman doesn't fall for it! The few girls we brought have been shown in front of him, and he shows no reaction."
Suddenly, a good idea flashed in Wu Ying's mind, and he hurried up to Ahua: "How about I bring Wang Baiman here, then feed them some medicine, and everything will be solved!"
A spark of brilliance flashed in Ahua's eyes, then he fell silent again.
"No. Around Wang Baiman are either the people they hang out with, or a driver; basically there's no chance of a slip‑up.
Moreover, Wang Baiman isn't some petty thug; if anyone learns they were kidnapped by us, it would definitely cause big trouble for Mo Ge."
"Damn!" Wu Ying cursed.
"This won't work, that won't work, what are we supposed to do!"
"It's all those girls' fault; they're useless!"
Earlier they shouted loudly in front of Chen Mo, promising to get the job done, but after all this time there's been no progress.
Wu Ying's plan to show off in front of Chen Mo completely fell through.
If they keep failing and Chen Mo hands the task to someone else, that would be embarrassing.
"Why are you so impatient!" Ahua raised his voice, "Solutions are thought out, not rushed! Go out and calm down, don't bother me here!"
Although Ahua is much steadier than Wu Ying, his temper isn't exactly great.
He was already anxious, and Wu Ying's back‑and‑forth made him even more irritated.
"Me! You! Sigh! Fine!" Wu Ying sighed, lowered his head and left Ahua's office.
After Wu Ying left, Ahua's irritation eased considerably.
But the matter remains unresolved, and he still can't relax.
Ahua has been on the job for several months; Chen Mo assigned him many tasks, and he's done well.
Moreover, Chen Mo has always been good to the brothers below.
Even if this job goes badly, Ahua isn't worried Chen Mo will punish him.
However, this Wang Baiman affair involves a share transaction worth several hundred million.
If Chen Mo's important affairs were delayed, even if Chen Mo didn't say anything, Ahua would feel uneasy in his own heart.
Especially just now, to save face, he got hot-headed and it was impossible for Liu Li Li to tell the truth.
If he continues to be unable to think of a solution, he will definitely delay Chen Mo's affairs.
The more he thought, the more irritable he became; Ahua momentarily didn't know what to do.
After staying in the office for several hours, Ahua still decided to proactively go find Chen Mo to explain the situation.
Losing face is trivial; delaying matters is serious.
He himself ran to Chen Mo's office to ask for help, believing Chen Mo wouldn't go around telling others.
When the time comes, if he gets the work done well, he won't lose face.
Having figured this out, Ahua immediately left the bar.
"Wu Yan, I'm going out to handle some business; you watch the place!"
"Okay, Brother Hua, do you want me to bring a few people to come with you?" Wu Yan came over and asked.
Ahua casually waved his hand and directly refused: "No need, it's just a small matter; I'll be back soon."
Several minutes later, Ahua ran to the Yinhejiuba bar.
Chen Mo saw Ahua suddenly arrive, somewhat surprised: "What's wrong?"
Ahua said somewhat embarrassedly: "Mo Ge, I've run into a bit of trouble here and wanted to ask what I should do."
Next, Ahua recounted everything he had done these past few days targeting Wang Baiwan.
Especially the situation of the dozen or so under‑fourteen‑year‑old bean sprouts he had recruited, and Wang Baiwan's attitude toward these girls.
After Ahua finished speaking, Chen Mo was not angry.
He had already figured out where the problem lay; indeed, it wasn't Ahua's fault.
If one insists on blaming someone, the most that can be said is that Ahua is still not flexible enough.
However, to have Ahua set a trap for someone, or to send someone to jail, is indeed somewhat difficult for Ahua.
"This matter is my oversight; I don't blame you."
Chen Mo's fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop.
Familiar with Chen Mo, Ahua knew Chen Mo was surely thinking of an idea.
After a few minutes, Chen Mo spoke: "This matter, you doing it yourself might not turn out well. Go find Huang Ziyang."
This matter originally required his cooperation; you go find him and let him give you some ideas.
"This kind of framing someone and sending them to jail is something he's surely very familiar with!"
