Chapter 356: 352. A Supreme Ruler Added (Please subscribe, monthly tickets!)

The more Zhang Ran acted this way, the more suspicious and uneasy the others felt; especially Xiang Lianshun's attitude, which made some of them feel a faint chill in their hearts.

What on earth had Zhang Ran done?

To actually make Xiang Lianshun this afraid?

It shouldn't just be about being dismissed from above; after all, Xiang Lianshun had just said he would gift his shares to Zhang Ran for free.

What exactly was going on here?

The more they thought about it, the more terrified some people became.

It didn't even take ten minutes; very soon, someone spoke up, "I agree with Mr. Zhang's proposal. Fengli Group is indeed suffering from severe internal friction and needs to establish a new system to centralize power."

Zhang Ran hadn't expected someone to support him so quickly, and even Zhao Lifeng was a bit surprised, as this person wasn't someone he had arranged.

The reason he had made such a big decision this time was, of course, because he had his own trump cards, and Zhao Lifeng also had people supporting him here.

Zhang Ran opened his eyes to take a look, immediately understood, smiled, and nodded without saying much.

This man was named Kong Xin. Besides being a shareholder of Fengli Group, he also ran a foreign trade company and had his own business in Russia, with what could be called his main focus there.

Everyone knew Xiang Lianshun's background; if they wanted to make him cave in so quickly, and even say he would transfer his shares for free, then it proved that something must have happened over in Russia.

And it happened within a mere two hours, which meant there was absolutely no room for resistance there, or rather, not even the heart to retaliate.

One could imagine Zhang Ran's influence over there.

Kong Xin often traveled to Russia and knew the situation there, so the more he thought about it, the more worried he became.

This was also the reason he was the first to speak up; he didn't want his foreign trade company's interests to suffer because of this.

Come to think of it, his backer's strength was about the same as Xiang Lianshun's, and his main assets were still domestic. Looking at the situation there, he knew that if Zhang Ran wanted to deal with him, it would likely just be a matter of a phone call.

After Kong Xin finished speaking, he felt a bit apprehensive, but when he saw Zhang Ran open his eyes, smile, and nod at him, he immediately felt relieved.

Once there was a first, there would be a second. Added to Zhao Lifeng's people, a "unified" opinion was reached here very quickly.

Once the ten minutes were up, Zhang Ran looked at the remaining shareholders who hadn't spoken; he didn't say anything himself, as these people could no longer stir up any trouble.

If Zhao Lifeng couldn't even handle this small matter well, then Zhang Ran would really have to consider replacing him.

"This cooperation is a win-win situation; I hope we can all get rich together," Zhang Ran said with a smile, as if nothing had happened just moments ago.

"Following Mr. Zhang will definitely lead to wealth," Kong Xin was the first to chime in.

Some people on the side looked at him with strange expressions; was there any need to suck up like that?

But very soon, everyone exchanged glances and then spoke up one after another: "Mr. Zhang, do you have time this evening? Shall we get together?"

"Mr. Zhang, would it be convenient to leave a phone number? I would like to ask Mr. Zhang for some advice."

Seeing the demeanor of these people, Zhao Lifeng quickly woke up from his ecstasy. At this moment, he suddenly realized that even if he had now centralized power in his own hands, it seemed he didn't have true control over the company?

For a moment, Zhao Lifeng didn't know if what he had done was right or wrong.

Had he really invited a wolf into the house?

But the next moment, Zhang Ran gave him peace of mind. Zhang Ran smiled and said, "Everyone, I am truly sorry. I have some matters to attend to recently and need to head back. When I have time, I will treat you all to a meal."

He nodded slightly to show his apology, then left with Meng Mingxuan.

Zhang Ran was demonstrating an attitude: he would not interfere in the internal affairs of Fengli Group. Since he chose to trust Zhao Lifeng, he would not impose any restrictions on him.

Likewise, this also expressed Zhang Ran's confidence from another perspective: no matter how Zhao Lifeng tossed and turned, he was certain that he could take him down just as easily as he had helped him up.

Zhao Lifeng didn't care much about these things; he believed that with his own ability, he would definitely lead Fengli Group toward greatness.

As for Xiang Lianshun at this moment, he had already been forgotten by everyone.

He desperately wanted to beg Zhang Ran again, but seeing Zhang Ran's attitude just now, he felt a chill in his heart.

As for Wen Jing, he had already quietly made a phone call to those above.

Wen Jing explained the situation to Mu Jinyuan. From Mu Jinyuan's tone, Wen Jing could tell that Mu Jinyuan didn't seem surprised by this outcome at all, just slightly regretful.

Finally, Mu Jinyuan instructed: "Since it's like this, just go discuss withdrawing your shares and liquidating with Zhao Lifeng. I hope you can get out unscathed."

He actually didn't hold much hope for this, because he had already suffered a loss at Dahe Express and knew Zhang Ran's attitude.

At the same time, this was also within his expectations; Zhang Ran would never allow him to withdraw funds from right under his nose—that was simply unrealistic.

However, Mu Jinyuan had actually been struggling internally during this period; he didn't know what choice he should make now.

He had already sought out countless famous doctors and experts, and tried all kinds of high-tech equipment, but had not found any problems with his family members.

There were some minor ailments, but there was not a single issue regarding fertility.

However, Mu Jinyuan had not completely given up. His son was only in his twenties this year, and his little nephew had just been born not long ago.

Modern technology was developing extremely rapidly, so perhaps at some point, they would be able to detect some problems and cure them.

Zhao Lifeng didn't know about the situation on Wen Jing's side; he just glanced at him briefly and then ignored him. What he needed now was to stabilize these people and then buy back some of their shares.

He had already planned all of this, so he appeared calm and unhurried at this moment.

Zhao Lifeng's mood at this moment was actually very complex; he was somewhat excited, as these internal company matters had plagued him for nearly ten years and were finally resolved in one fell swoop.

But he was also somewhat lost, because Zhao Lifeng knew that from this moment on, there was vaguely a Supreme Ruler above his head.

Especially these people in front of him; in their heart of hearts, the person they truly feared was Zhang Ran, not him, Zhao Lifeng.

He, Zhao Lifeng, had not yet fully managed to make them convinced of him.

But very soon, Zhao Lifeng pulled himself together and cast these messy emotions aside. No matter what happened in the future, at least now the power of the company was truly in his hands, and he could finally stretch his limbs and get to work.
