Chapter 275: It's all your credit!

"Long time no see." Yan Hongyu smiled meaningfully, "Senior Xu."

"Hehe, it's rare that you still remember me."

Xu Rixin feigned surprise and sighed, then immediately changed the subject, "This time, Little Yan Zong must be lenient and leave some opportunities for our small companies!"

"Senior Xu is too modest; it's not certain yet who will win."

The two exchanged a few lukewarm pleasantries and then went to their respective seats.

The auction soon began.

The first few items went very smoothly. After an hour, it was finally the turn of the highly anticipated Beicheng land auction.

Because each company's quotation list had been submitted long ago, now they just needed to wait for the organizer to announce the final result.

The Planning Bureau Director took a stack of materials to the stage, picked up the microphone, and announced.

"Next, I will announce the auction result of the Beicheng land. The Xu Group has won the development rights of the Beicheng area with a bid of 1.21 million."

"President Xu! We've won the development rights!" The senior executives of the Xu Group were excited and high-fived each other to celebrate.

Xu Rixin had long expected this result, and his performance at this time was very calm.

In contrast, the expressions on the faces of the people from the Yan Group were not very good.

"1.21 million?"

"Only 10,000 higher than our final quotation?"

"This is too outrageous!"

While the people from the Yan Group were still discussing, Xu Rixin walked slowly to Yan Hongyu and Yan Ershu, nodding slightly to signal them.

"The two of you don't need to be angry; this time it's just that our Xu Group was lucky."

He was not afraid of any suspicion from the Yan family at all. After all, it was a matter without evidence. If they couldn't hold back their anger and questioned it at this time, it would only give people something to talk about.

"Mr. Xu is too polite." Yan Hongyu's face changed slightly, but on the surface, no displeasure could be seen, "It is well-deserved that you were able to win this piece of land."

"Thank you for letting me win!" Xu Rixin took advantage and acted spoiled. After shaking hands with Yan Hongyu and the others one by one, he took his people and left.

His small company had always been looked down upon, and today he could finally hold his head high.

After Xu Rixin left, Yan Ershu slapped the table hard and said with a gloomy face.

"An unknown foot soldier, and he dares to put on airs in front of me!"

In fact, the Beicheng land was not a project that the Yan Group had to fight for, but not wanting it oneself and having it snatched away by others were still different, especially with a difference of only 10,000; no one could swallow this breath.

"President Yan..." Yan Ershu's assistant hesitated for a moment, then said, "The difference between our bottom price and the Xu Group's is too small. I feel there must be something fishy in this!"

"Are you saying they knew our quotation in advance?"

Yan Ershu snorted coldly, "Just by relying on their small broken company, they have the ability to plant spies in our group?"

"Probably not."

Yan Hongyu also analyzed calmly, "This final quotation was determined by President Yan and me. Even the senior executives of the company didn't know. As for the quotation list, it was taken home by President Yan and placed in the study before submission. People in the company couldn't have seen it."

"Then how could it be such a coincidence? The Xu Group's bottom price is only 10,000 different from ours! This is impossible in past auctions." The assistant wondered.

"Could it be that there is a traitor in the family?" Yan Ershu's face turned colder.

Yan Hongyu touched his chin and frowned in deep thought. A moment later, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind, and he quickly said to Yan Ershu.

"President Yan, I remember that Big Uncle's cousin, Yan Qingxue, is now working for Xu Rixin."

"I know about this too. It seems she is that kid's secretary. A dignified Yan family eldest daughter, actually reduced to being a secretary for a small company boss. It's really disappointing!"

"You say..." Yan Hongyu saw that his father didn't understand his meaning, and added, "Could it be that she leaked our final quotation?"

"Are you saying she stole a look at my quotation list?" Yan Ershu asked with a frown.

"I'm just guessing; I don't dare to be 100% sure. After all, there is no evidence." Yan Hongyu replied, "However, we are only 10,000 different from the Xu Group. This is indeed too coincidental. Logically speaking, such a situation should not appear at all."

"Since no one in the company knows the final quotation, we can only start investigating from the family side. Yan Qingxue is the most suspicious."

"Hehe... sure enough, like father, like daughter!"

Yan Ershu sneered upon hearing this, "Her father is an ungrateful thing. Now that he has been kicked out of the house, he still hasn't learned his lesson, actually secretly leaking our bottom price to other competitors! This matter must be thoroughly investigated; we absolutely cannot let this internal traitor go unpunished!"

He patted Yan Hongyu on the shoulder and instructed, "Hongyu, this matter is left to you to investigate. You must find evidence of Yan Qingxue leaking the quotation to the Xu Group!"

"Rest assured, I will definitely catch her handle!" Yan Hongyu nodded in response.

The Yan Jinsong family was really forever rushing on the road to self-destruction. Originally, after the last birthday banquet, he noticed that the grandfather's attitude toward them had eased.

He and his father were worried that the old man would be soft-hearted and might find a step to take the Big Uncle's family back.

Then the family property that originally belonged to them would be forced to be divided and given to the Big Uncle.

Yan Hongyu was the designated heir, so of course he was unwilling to have his power divided by others. Just as he was guarding against the Big Uncle's family, fearing that they would make a move, he didn't expect that the idiot Yan Qingxue would actually deliver herself to the door.

What the grandfather tabooed most was the behavior of eating inside and out, and colluding with outsiders to frame his own family was something he could not accept.

Yan Qingxue leaked the company's quotation list to other competing enterprises. This charge was enough for the grandfather to completely sever ties with the Big Uncle's family, with no possibility of repair.

"Hehe... Yan Qingxue, just wait to be dealt with by grandfather!"

Yan Hongyu sneered in his heart.

You have to know that this charge can be big or small. If it is really handled according to official business, it would not be too much even if Yan Qingxue were caught and sent to jail.

You have to know that commercial crimes can also be sentenced if they reach a certain amount.

After leaving the auction site, Yan Hongyu immediately set about investigating evidence of Yan Qingxue stealing the quotation list.

At the same time.

Yan Qingxue had been restless since she didn't know the final result.

It wasn't until she learned that Xu Rixin and the others had returned to the company that she hurried to his office.

"President Xu, how was the result?"

"We've won the Beicheng land!"

Xu Rixin hugged Yan Qingxue excitedly, "It's all thanks to you; you are really my lucky star!"

Yan Qingxue finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Congratulations! You finally got what you wanted!"

"This is all your credit!"
