Chapter 827 The Idol of All Men
“That would be truly excellent!”
Chen Xuan was immensely excited.
The lithography machine was a bottleneck for Xia Guo, hindering their chip technology at every step. If they could develop their own lithography machine, it would break through Xia Guo's technological barriers and greatly benefit the entire chip research and development of Xia Guo.
At this moment, Chen Xuan’s admiration for Professor Long grew even stronger. Despite being kidnapped, he had used that time to continuously research the lithography machine.
This was the spirit of a master craftsman of a great nation!
At this moment, he even felt a desire to meet Professor Long.
“I’ve already found a suitable piece of land, and the auction is about to begin. Let’s head inside quickly.”
Su Yunxi took Chen Xuan’s arm and walked towards the building.
Soon, they arrived at a luxuriously decorated hall. Around them sat many men in suits and ties, all attending the auction.
“I heard there’s a very good piece of land today, right in the suburbs!”
“Yes, I heard that too. That land is by the mountains and water, perfect for building villas. If used for villas, it would be incredibly profitable. People these days are more focused on health and wellness, much like the Imperial Garden villas that the Li family is about to deliver; those villas are outrageously expensive!”
“I heard the head of the Li family is determined to acquire this land.”
“Even if not for villas, it’s good for building factories. It’s close to the highway entrance, with convenient transportation, and it’s in the suburbs where no one will check your environmental compliance!”
“Right, right, building factories is also good. You’ve made me tempted, but alas, ordinary people like us probably can’t get our hands on such good land. I wonder how many influential figures are eyeing it!”
The crowd murmured, whispering amongst themselves.
Suddenly, someone exclaimed, “It’s the Li family head! I didn’t expect the Li family head to personally attend the auction!”
The surroundings immediately fell silent. Li Tianxing emerged from outside.
Following him, auction staff swarmed forward.
Li Tianxing was the head of the Li family, a tycoon in the provincial capital. Many people immediately surrounded him, engaging in pleasantries, almost to the point of hugging his leg and calling him father.
Amidst the waves of flattery, Li Tianxing beamed, unable to contain his smile!
Everyone was surrounding Li Tianxing, but no one noticed Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi walking over.
Chen Xuan saw a map hanging nearby. This map was an overhead view of the land to be auctioned. He glanced at Su Yunxi and said faintly, “Is this the piece of land?”
“That’s right!” Su Yunxi nodded.
Chen Xuan looked at the picture and nodded slightly. “Not bad, not bad. From a feng shui perspective, this is a place that gathers wealth. If used to build a factory, it will surely bring in abundant fortune.”
“That impressive?”
“Mm!” Chen Xuan nodded.
“It seems we must acquire this land, no matter the cost.”
Su Yunxi said with determination.
“Are you Miss Su?”
Suddenly, a plump man in an oversized suit, wearing a thick gold chain around his neck, walked over quickly. He looked at Su Yunxi, was momentarily stunned, and then said loudly.
“Hello.”
Su Yunxi looked at the wealthy man but still nodded politely.
“This is my business card! I look forward to our cooperation!”
The fat man wiped his hands on his trousers, then took out a business card from his pocket, held it by two small corners, and respectfully placed it in front of Su Yunxi.
After speaking, the fat man swallowed and showed an expression of both nervousness and anticipation.
“I look forward to cooperating with you.”
Su Yunxi took the business card, glanced at it, and put it into her bag.
The fat man’s expression stiffened for a moment, then he broke into a silly grin.
“Wow, Miss Su actually accepted my business card! Oh my, I’m going to be prosperous!”
The rich man turned and skipped away, as if he had won the lottery.
No, even winning five million might not make him this happy, because the friendship of the Su family was priceless.
Chen Xuan was dumbfounded. He looked at Su Yunxi, “Yunxi, since when do you have such great influence?”
Su Yunxi also shook her head, full of confusion. “I don’t know either.”
At the same time!
Miss Su has arrived!
This news spread like wildfire, sweeping through the entire auction hall like a hurricane…
On the other side, a middle-aged tycoon was chatting with Li Tianxing, handing him a business card. “Li family head, my family is in the cement business. We have over a dozen cement factories. Our cement is of guaranteed quality and quantity. You are in the real estate business, so we can strengthen our cooperation. Here is my business card, please accept it!”
“Okay!”
Li Tianxing felt disdain but still reached out to take it in a perfunctory manner…
“Miss Su of the Su family is attending the auction!”
Just then, a scream rang out.
The middle-aged tycoon’s expression changed. He subconsciously withdrew the business card he was offering, coincidentally making Li Tianxing miss it.
“What do you mean by this?” Li Tianxing showed some displeasure.
“Li family head, I sincerely apologize. My business card was printed incorrectly, the phone number is wrong! I’ll give you the gold-foiled business card another day, hehehe…”
Saying that, the middle-aged tycoon, with an embarrassed expression, turned and left.
He thought: I only have one business card left, and it’s more worthwhile to give it to Miss Su of the Su family!
Li Tianxing: “……”
What was this supposed to mean?
However, what was more unexpected was yet to come.
Immediately after, the people who had been surrounding Li Tianxing, preparing to curry favor with him, vanished in an instant, leaving him in the cold, as if a chilling wind had blown through.
Li Tianxing frowned, his expression growing increasingly displeased.
Following the direction of the crowd, his gaze immediately turned sharp, and he stared intently at Su Yunxi and Chen Xuan, who were surrounded by people!
“Damn it!”
He gritted his teeth.
However, his gaze narrowed, and he was so angry his lungs felt like they would explode.
He happened to see the same middle-aged tycoon who had just offered him a business card in the crowd, extending his arm and desperately trying to hand his business card to Su Yunxi, begging and pleading, almost on his knees to Su Yunxi and Chen Xuan.
In an instant, he understood what had just happened.
This was clearly looking down on him!
“To dare to steal my thunder, how detestable!”
Li Tianxing gritted his teeth and strode over.
Meanwhile, Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi were swarmed by the approaching tycoons. If only they had brought security, they wouldn’t be in this situation.
“Miss Su, our cooperation with the Sima family. Now that the Su family has acquired the Sima family’s enterprises, can our previously discussed cooperation continue?”
“Miss Su, look, previously the Fang family technology was preparing to invest in us, and all our contracts were ready. What do you think…”
From the snippets of conversation around them, Su Yunxi and Chen Xuan understood the reason.
It was because the Su family had continuously absorbed the businesses of the Fang and Sima families. The Su family had grown stronger, and these people were now desperately trying to curry favor.
Facing everyone’s questions, Su Yunxi smiled faintly and said one sentence: “In our Su family, the men call the shots!”
The surroundings immediately fell silent!
Everyone looked at Chen Xuan with expressions of shock.
The Su family’s live-in son-in-law was truly about to take charge!
This news had been circulating in high society many times. It was rumored that the eldest daughter of the Su family was willing to break ties with the Wei family to protect Chen Xuan and start a major conflict!
Miss Su, the eldest daughter, had publicly stated more than once her intention to have the Su family’s live-in son-in-law take charge!
Her utterance this time undoubtedly confirmed all the rumors.
Among those present, especially the men, their admiration for Chen Xuan soared to its peak!
Embracing a beautiful and wealthy wife, inheriting a fortune!
For a man to achieve this, he was awesome! The idol of all men!
