Chapter 509: An agreement! Making money on your knees!

This episode spread through the streets and alleys extremely quickly.

This was Zhao Xian's deliberate doing, ruthless and yet measured.

Su Yang had just said yesterday that he would severely crack down on clowns.

Zhao Xian arranged for people to patrol everywhere early in the morning, for fear of any mistakes.

He had made a guarantee in front of Su Yang—if there was any mistake, he would offer his head.

This military order was no joke, his status now was different from before.

No longer Hall Master Zhao who was idle all day with a group of subordinates.

But a big shot with a face and status!

With thousands of people under his command, if he didn't set an example, how could he convince the public in the future?

Once the punishment was spread, everyone was shocked.

Some even wanted to see the truth on the spot.

To see what exactly happened.

But when they arrived, they found that the place was already empty.

"Will Liu Ping be okay?"

"Falling into Minister Feng's hands, it's hard to say~"

"He loved to talk a bit of gossip on weekdays. I warned him long ago to manage his mouth, he just wouldn't listen, now it's fine."

"I advise everyone, be cautious in words and deeds, don't provoke public anger at this juncture. People are doing, heaven is watching, everyone take care of themselves."

With the spread of the news, many people with small schemes gave up the idea of making trouble at this moment.

Seeing that saying two words would lead to being taken away for punishment, wouldn't committing a crime lead to public beheading?

Others who already had plans left quietly. They originally had no place to stay in Jinshan City, so why not leave now?

After a brief peace, Su Yang also started his own mission.

As early as the end of the meeting yesterday, he arranged for Lin Yang to gather the prominent figures of Jinshan City at the He Feng Restaurant.

Before opening the door, he asked: "How many people received the invitation?"

"Twenty were sent out, it is estimated that only fifteen or sixteen are truly willing to accept, and it is estimated that about ten will arrive today," Lin Yang said as such.

Su Yang nodded slightly and pushed the door in.

As soon as he entered, the people inside stood up and stopped talking, looking at this newly promoted legendary figure in unison.

Many of them were seeing Su Yang's true face for the first time, and they were all surprised that this man with a rising reputation was even younger than the rumors described.

Not only that, the noble temperament between his brows was like a dynasty crown prince, not angry but prestigious.

The most eye-catching thing was the pair of deep and boundless eyes, just a glance seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Su Yang scanned the private room and thought to himself: "Eight people..."

As he sat in the main seat, he pressed his palm and said: "Sit down."

As the waiter served the appetizers and tea, Su Yang went straight to the point: "I gathered everyone here today to discuss important matters, involving gold and silver transactions. Ugly words are spoken first, if anyone is unwilling to get their hands dirty with copper, they can leave now."

As soon as this was said, everyone looked at each other quietly, motionless.

At the same time, they secretly breathed

At the same time, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had thought Su Yang came this time to force them to submit.

After all, most of them originally had more or less financial cooperation with Li Yongfeng.

He was afraid that Su Yang was here to settle old scores this time.

A moment later, seeing no one leaving the table, Su Yang nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, since everyone wants to taste this new dish, then I will get straight to the point."

"You are all big shots with status in Jinshan City; some are in the antique business, some are in the building materials trade, and some specialize in flipping imported goods."

"No matter what you have done before, or who you have colluded with."

"And no matter whether you have attacked the Liuhe Association before."

"All grudges are written off today, and we start anew."

Speaking of this, a woman wearing a mink coat asked: "May I ask how President Su intends to talk today?"

Su Yang glanced at her, and identity information about her immediately appeared in his mind—

Tao Huilan, 52 years old, 2 daughters and 1 son, runs a building materials business, and more than half of the entire Jinshan City is her territory.

The real estate project Li Yongfeng did was in cooperation with her, and the two had a very close relationship.

Now that the Ronggui Group has collapsed, the project funds have suddenly become bad debts.

This wave of losses is unimaginable.

Su Yang smiled and said: "Everyone knows the current situation in Jinshan City; all walks of life are trying every possible way to dig 'gold' out of our Liuhe Chamber of Commerce."

"You have been in the business world for many years and know in your hearts that long-term and stable cooperative relationships are more precious than getting rich overnight."

"So... I came here today to give you all a chance."

"A chance... to make big money!"

Oh?!

Everyone immediately perked up, and Tao Huilan spoke directly: "Just say it."

"Actually, it's very simple. I have drafted an agreement here. As long as you are willing to sign, there will be endless glory and wealth in the future." Su Yang raised his eyes to signal.

Lin Yang nodded and distributed the drafted agreement.

The eight bosses couldn't wait to look down and study it, their faces showing various expressions and postures.

There was surprise, resentment, and joy.

Tao Huilan frowned and said displeasedly: "What does President Su mean by this? Do you want to use an empty check to get a white wolf?"

Another person immediately echoed: "President Su, I respect you as a hero of Jinshan City, so I give you three points of face. Isn't it too unkind for you to act and do things like this?"

"Cooperation and profit-sharing, are you thinking of eating us dry?"

Su Yang drank tea silently and said lightly: "The right to cooperate is in your hands. I have never thought of coercion or inducement. Whether you sign or not is your business."

Tao Huilan said angrily: "Future cooperation profit-sharing reduced by 20%, and we also need to fulfill the obligation to fund the reconstruction of Jinshan City. Does President Su think we are suckers? You made the big talk, and you want us to pay the bill?"

"One cannot be so unkind. Although you promised that all cooperation will be settled in cash, this reconstruction expense is not small."

Everyone raised objections together, and only two remained silent.

Obviously, they had already seen through the doorway and knew that no matter how this account was calculated, it would be a steady profit without loss.

Just as people were criticizing, they had already picked up their pens and signed their names.

Su Yang finished the tea and said unhurriedly: "Reconstruction was indeed proposed by me, but you must have thought about it, if I don't take the lead, who will clean up the mess?"

"Is it you?" Su Yang looked at Tao Huilan, and then at the middle-aged man on the other side, "Or you?"

Tao Huilan held her breath and said in a deep voice: "Even if I don't rebuild, I won't do business at a loss!"

Su Yang smiled upon hearing this, "I think your losses in this war should be the greatest. How many of the destroyed buildings in the Southern City District are your property?"

"Just because of one word from me, you want me to repair them for you for free? Where in the world is there such a good thing?"

"Even common people understand the principle of contributing to their own houses."

"And... if I don't build houses, where will you have business to do? Do you expect the penniless common people to buy cement and sand from you?"

"Or do you expect the dead Li Yongfeng to come back to life and manage the mortgage business again?"

"Furthermore, you have countless bad debts and rotten accounts in your hands. How will you explain to the bank?"

Su Yang cleared his throat and said slowly: "Profit-sharing reduced by 20%, cash settlement, and you only need to contribute manpower and effort to repair the houses on your own land, yet you complain endlessly. Do you really think I am a fool who knows nothing about the world?"

Tao Huilan was silent.

The people who were just 'passionate' also closed their mouths.

Seeing this, Su Yang continued: "What I promised is to rebuild the homes of the homeless. Do you, a group of people with countless wealth, have the face to sponge off my meal?"

"You didn't see you contribute money or effort during the war, but you started calling out after the war ended."

"Giving you three points of face is for the sake of smooth cooperation in the future, not a reason for you to climb up the pole."

"In short, one sentence—"

"If you don't do the business, plenty of people are willing to do it with me."

"If you want to make money..."

"Then smash your knees on the ground!"
