The circle of wealthy young men in the Capital has been quite lively these days. In the entire Capital, if the family isnāt part of the official second generation, theyāre part of the wealthy third generation from the Old Red Army soldier families. Some of these young men have enlisted in the military, while others have started businesses. When it comes to business negotiations, the common practice is doing so in nightclubs, where the chances of reaching deals are higher under the dim lights and flowing drinks.
Lu Shaojun, a wealthy third generation from the Loo Family, is involved in the construction sector and has set up a banquet at the nightclub tonight. He plans to sign a deal with Initiate Real Estate, which has recently acquired a piece of land, to contract the construction of high-rise buildings for Initiate.
The deal is almost settled, and once this agreement is signed, it means a profit of over a million.
Lu Shaojun awaited Initiateās Crown Prince Pan Yan, but also unexpectedly encountered Zhou Jun.
The agreement wasnāt signed yet, when someone whispered a few words in Pan Yanās ear, halting the signing pen he was holding. Looking at Lu Shaojun, he said, "Young Master Lu, we regret to inform you that Initiate cannot continue cooperation with you."
Lu Shaojun was stunned, "You, Young Master Pan, what does this mean? We were negotiating well." Had there been a mistake? This deal was worth millions or even more, and just like that, it was called off?
"Young Master Lu, thereās nothing I can do about it. After all, our family needs to establish a foundation in the Capital, and we rely on people to do that. If thereās someone to blame, blame your Loo Family for not handling things fairly!" Young Master Pan explained. Although their family was indeed wealthy merchants from Shanxi, breaking into the influential circle of the Capital was also a priority, so they couldnāt afford to lose bigger opportunities while pursuing smaller ones.
Lu Shaojun was even more bewildered, "What do you mean by not handling things fairly?" He sensed something amiss, poured Pan Yan a glass of vodka, and said, "Young Master Pan, as friends, give me a hint?"
Pan Yan glanced at him and said, "You have a cousin named Chiang Qing, right? Sheās quite attractive?"
Lu Shaojunās head buzzed, "Yeah, so?"
"Your cousin offended Zhou Jun, messed with Zhou Junās business, and now Zhou Jun has said anyone doing business with the Loo Family is going against the Zhou family and Chen Family, and shouldnāt expect to do business with them in the future. You know how hard it is for us, from Shanxi, to connect with the Zhou family, and we have several businesses that are linked with the Chen Family. So..." Young Master Pan stood up, saying, "I better be going!"
Chiang Qing offended Zhou Jun? What was this about?
"Young Master Pan..." Lu Shaojun stood up, but realized Pan Yan was already gone. He sat down heavily, pondering, and said, "Go investigate what Chiang Qing has done!"
A deal worth millions was canceled just like that ā was this a joke?
Chiang Qing, what kind of trouble did she stir up to provoke Zhou Jun, the little rascal?
Lu Shaojun was lost in thought, but soon, the nightclub echoed with a loudspeaker announcement.
"Ahem, Iām Zhou Jun. Let it be known tonight, anyone wanting to do business with the Loo Family or Chiang Tian, donāt bother approaching the Zhou family or Chen Family. I, Zhou Jun, have no respect for those who started out as hawkers, nor do I fancy a family full of people trying to steal othersā husbands. Thatās all."
Zhou Jun, a typical example of the wealthy third generation from the Old Red Army soldier families, is the sole heir of his family. Zhou Junās grandfather was an Old Red Army soldier, and his father was in the military, but died in a mission when Zhou Jun was seven or eight years old.
Thus, he has been coddled as the sole heir, with his grandmother pampering him since he lost his father, indulging him to the point of being lawless. His mother, another formidable female soldier, fiercely protects him, especially since her husband passed away. Back in the day when Zhou Jun got into a fight with Ning Ge and ended up bruised, his mom almost raised the roof of the Ning Family. Remarkably, Zhou Jun yielded, and since then has followed Ning Geās lead.
Due to this background, the Chen Family, Zhou Junās external family with real power, also spoils him. Now Zhou Jun has spoken these words, anyone considering doing business with the Loo Family or Chiang Family should think carefully.
Lu Shaojunās face turned dark instantly.
