Following Yu Honglong’s address, Huizi drove Chen Mo to Kai Long Tower.
This was where the land auction was to take place.
Yu Honglong was already waiting for Chen Mo at the entrance.
Seeing Chen Mo's car stop, he quickly walked towards Chen Mo.
"Brother Chen!" Yu Honglong exclaimed, his face beaming with excitement.
Chen Mo nodded. "Is it starting soon?"
"Yes, in about ten minutes. We'll be just in time if we go up now," Yu Honglong replied.
Then, the four of them entered the 26th floor of Kai Long Tower together.
After passing through security, Yu Honglong led them to an auction hall.
A total of three plots of land were to be auctioned that day, with over a dozen companies participating.
Chen Mo and his group arrived at the Hengchang Real Estate area and took their seats, waiting for the auction to begin.
"Well, well, isn't this Hengchang Real Estate? You're actually participating in a land auction. Do you guys even have money? I heard your boss has already fled."
Shortly after they sat down, a mocking voice was heard.
Laughter and ridicule echoed from the surroundings.
Upon hearing this, Yu Honglong’s expression darkened, and he stood up, ready to retort.
However, Chen Mo waved his hand, signaling Yu Honglong to sit down.
Yu Honglong dared not defy Chen Mo’s wishes and sat back down.
"Manager Wang, there's free afternoon tea here. Perhaps the employees of Hengchang can't even afford to eat, so they've come specifically to freeload," another middle-aged man chimed in with mockery.
Previously, these two companies were competitors of Hengchang.
Seeing that Hengchang Real Estate was in trouble, they naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity to kick them while they were down.
"Manager Zhang is right. Haven't you noticed their vice president isn't here? It seems their company is really in decline," the earlier fat man continued mockingly.
Not much was known about Hengchang Real Estate’s situation outside.
The most common rumor was that Zheng Wenchang had left Hengchang Real Estate.
"Hey, you guys, why don't you come work for our company? Or contact your boss and hand over your existing projects to us. We'll take them all for ten million yuan. With that money, it would be a decent severance package." Manager Zhang said smugly.
Yu Honglong’s face turned grim.
Currently, their projects were each yielding profits of hundreds of millions. The idea of buying these projects for ten million yuan was sheer fantasy!
Chen Mo glanced at the two men. "Huizi, make them shut up."
Huizi nodded, her high heels clicking as she walked towards the fat man and the other.
Seeing Huizi’s curvaceous figure, especially her tight-fitting attire, made both men involuntarily swallow.
"Beautiful lady, come work for me as my secretary. I'll give you fifty thousand a month!"
As he spoke, the fat man reached out, intending to put his arm around Huizi’s slender waist.
However, just as the fat man’s hand was a few centimeters away from Huizi’s waist, it was suddenly grabbed.
The fat man was startled and looked down. The one holding his wrist was none other than Huizi.
The fat man chuckled, his flabby flesh jiggling, looking quite lecherous.
"Beautiful lady, you're smart. In a few days, you'll realize that following me is much better than staying with that dilapidated company."
"Disgusting!" Huizi said with a look of revulsion.
The fat man frowned slightly. "Beautiful lady, what did you just say?"
He thought he had misheard. He could never have imagined that a beauty coming to join him would suddenly curse him out.
Huizi said sternly, "I said you're disgusting, you fat pig! Get lost!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Huizi raised her leg and delivered a swift kick directly between the fat man’s legs.
"Ouch!"
A heart-wrenching scream erupted.
The fat man instantly flew backward.
Lying on the ground, clutching his nether regions, he wailed incessantly. Tears even welled up in his eyes, which were barely open.
"Boss!"
Several young men beside him quickly helped the fat man up.
The fat man's face was ashen. Huizi's kick had shown no mercy.
"It's broken, it's broken!" The fat man, hunched over, could clearly feel a cracking sound from a certain area.
"Huh? What's broken?" The young men were still bewildered.
The fat man was terrified. "What are you standing around for? Hurry and take me to the hospital!"
"But, but the auction?"
"Auction my foot! Hurry and take me to the hospital!" the fat man roared, his voice cracking.
At the same time, he pointed ferociously at Huizi. "This woman, keep an eye on her, don't let her escape. I'll make sure she pays today!"
After issuing a harsh threat, the fat man was helped away, his face contorted in pain, as he left the hall.
"Ouch, it hurts!"
However, the screams did not stop along the way.
The fat man was in excruciating pain, especially since that area was crucial for continuing his lineage. Therefore, the fat man could only plan his revenge later; he had to go to the hospital for treatment first.
After all, he knew that Huizi was an employee of Hengchang Real Estate.
This interlude caused a stir throughout the venue.
The other middle-aged man who had been mocking Hengchang Real Estate quickly fell silent.
Seeing the fat man sweating profusely in pain, the middle-aged man felt a chill down his own trousers.
Huizi returned to Chen Mo's side and sat down, paying no attention to the curious glances from those around her.
Yu Honglong, sitting next to Chen Mo, looked at Huizi in astonishment. "Brother Chen, the lady next to you is quite fierce!"
"What? Do you want to try her?" Chen Mo asked.
Yu Honglong, startled, quickly crossed his legs and gave a sheepish smile. "Never mind, never mind, I'm not interested."
Chen Mo had actually meant to ask if Yu Honglong wanted to try dating a fierce woman, but the latter had misunderstood.
Just then, the official auctioneer walked out.
"Brother Chen, the first item is the plot we want to bid on," Yu Honglong informed Chen Mo.
Chen Mo nodded.
After stepping onto the stage, the auctioneer first introduced the situation of the plot. It could be used for commercial housing development, covering 800 mu, with a starting bid of 3 billion yuan!
The location and environment were very good.
Therefore, there were many interested parties.
As soon as the bidding began, the price had already reached 4 billion yuan.
Chen Mo remained silent until the price reached 5 billion yuan, at which point the hall finally quieted down.
800 mu of land for 5 billion yuan was not cheap in Longhua.
Especially since it was in the suburbs, not the city center, which deterred many potential bidders.
The middle-aged man sitting not far from Chen Mo, seeing that no one was bidding further, stood up with a smile. "Esteemed guests, thank you for your consideration. Chengming Group and I plan to develop a project together, so..."
"6 billion yuan!"
However, before the middle-aged man could finish his sentence, a voice suddenly echoed through the hall!
