Reborn-After-C98
by MarineTLChapter 98: Isn’t That a Scam?
Shen Fei deliberately slowed his pace.
During his previous life, he was always so busy during his entrepreneurial years that he never had time to rest.
After his success, although he spent time with his daughter, their relationship wasn’t very close emotionally.
This had always been a regret for Shen Fei.
Now that he had the opportunity, he cherished it immensely.
Over the course of two days, he spent his time between the market and the kitchen.
Occasionally, he would go out with Jiang Tiancheng and Hu Yuantai to the Qiankun Group to sign the contract for the transfer of the Li Family Village land.
The rest of his time was dedicated to his family.
Although he was staying at home, Shen Fei didn’t let himself remain idle.
He used some of his time to reflect on all the events from his previous life, and only then did he feel satisfied.
On Shen Fei’s side, everything was peaceful.
On the Jiang family’s side, things were becoming chaotic.
Jiang Family Estate.
In the blink of an eye, a night had passed.
Jiang Shengcai, dejected, held his head and sat on the sofa.
On the table were the project inspection results.
As he reviewed each document, Jiang Shengcai’s expression grew more and more grim.
The self-assured man from just a moment ago was now full of anxiety.
“How are the results?”
At noon, around 12 o’clock, Jiang Anbang made a special call to summon Jiang Shengcai back.
Hearing this, Jiang Shengcai’s face flashed with some unease.
Jiang Tiancheng noticed this and felt a sinking sensation in his heart.
“Is it really as Shen Fei said?”
Seeing Jiang Shengcai remain silent, Jiang Anbang began to panic and quickly asked.
When the old man asked him this, Jiang Shengcai seemed to find his bearings, his face immediately falling.
“Dad, I… I came back today to ask for your advice on what we should do…”
He spoke in a trembling voice, his expression full of distress.
Jiang Anbang’s face darkened. “Tell me!”
Seeing his father’s unchanging expression, Jiang Shengcai hesitated before he spoke with determination.
“I had someone investigate last night. We checked all the projects undertaken by Shengxing Real Estate…”
“Twenty-five projects, all of them have problems! Ten municipal projects, and all ten have issues! I really don’t know what to do now.”
Even Jiang Anbang, who had seen many hardships, was unable to bear it after hearing Jiang Shengcai’s words.
“The quality is poor?”
“Yeah! To put it simply, they’re shoddy projects! They didn’t even meet the minimum quality inspection standards.”
Jiang Shengcai said weakly.
“Damn, isn’t that just a scam?”
Jiang Tiancheng, standing nearby, angrily said.
He had still held some hope.
Although Cao Qiuyu had been with Jiang Tiancheng for so long, he still thought that even if she were corrupt, she would at least show some mercy.
But he never expected Cao Qiuyu to be so ruthless!
She couldn’t even meet the most basic quality standards!
If anything went wrong, the Jiang family would be finished, with no way of recovering!
“That poisonous woman! I treated her so well, and this is how she repays me! The project fee of eight million, and she didn’t even use a third of it; the rest of the money she took for herself! Out of the twenty-five projects, she’s probably pocketed tens of millions in kickbacks! Every project needs to be redone!”
Jiang Shengcai, already bald, scratched his head in frustration, his voice tinged with a sob.
“Dad, what should I do?”
“Now you want to remember me! How did I warn you before?”
Jiang Anbang slammed the table in anger and said with a serious expression.
“I told you not to get too close to Cao Qiuyu. This company is yours, you have to handle it yourself! How many times have I told you this? Out of the twenty-five projects, ten are municipal projects! If something goes wrong, what good is Jiang Shengcai?”
“You, do you want to see the Jiang family ruined?”
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Anbang collapsed in pain on the table.
“Grandpa!”
“Dad!”
Jiang Tiancheng and Jiang Shengcai rushed to his side, looking at him with concern.
“Call an ambulance!”
Jiang Tiancheng said anxiously.
“No, no need!”
Jiang Anbang rubbed his aching chest and took a deep breath.
“Don’t call the ambulance, I’m not dying yet.”
“Tiancheng, go to that cabinet and get me the heart medicine.”
Jiang Anbang pointed toward the nearby TV cabinet.
“Okay, Grandpa!”
Jiang Tiancheng quickly responded, jogging over.
“Dad, don’t be angry! I… I’m such an idiot! It was my mistake to trust Cao Qiuyu!”
Looking at the weakened Jiang Anbang, tears welled up in Jiang Shengcai’s eyes.
“Grandpa, take the medicine!”
Jiang Tiancheng hurriedly helped Jiang Anbang take the medicine.
After taking the medicine, Jiang Anbang’s chest pain eased significantly.
“Have you gathered the evidence? If you have, just report it to the police! Get Cao Qiuyu arrested!”
“For the other problematic projects, apologize where needed, and pay compensation! Sell whatever you can, just resolve these issues!”
After suggesting a solution, Jiang Anbang finally seemed to relax.
“This time, the Jiang family really owes Shen Fei! If it weren’t for him, the Jiang family would be finished! We have no way to repay his kindness.”
This statement made Jiang Shengcai feel embarrassed.
When Shen Fei had said those words yesterday, he had only regarded Shen Fei as a scam artist, not believing him at all.
But Shen Fei had still helped, considering the faces of the old man and Tiancheng, and hadn’t held a grudge against him. He even reminded him.
Fortunately, the old man had spoken up, or he would have blindly trusted Cao Qiuyu, acting recklessly until it was too late to save the Jiang family.
“Dad, I’ll personally go thank Shen Fei in person!”
“Why are you still standing there? Hurry and handle the company’s issues! Delay, and things will get worse!”
Jiang Anbang shouted angrily.
“Okay! I’ll go now!”
As soon as Jiang Shengcai left, Jiang Tiancheng glanced at his grandfather and said softly,
“Grandpa, the land we bought from Li Family Village has already been sold!”
“Qiankun Group bought it?” Jiang Anbang asked, surprised.
“Yeah! It was ten times the price!” Jiang Tiancheng said, stunned.
Hearing this, Jiang Anbang was taken aback.
“Ha, it looks like a new rich tycoon will rise in Shenzhen soon!”
…
Meanwhile, outside a certain company.
“Get out! Stop being an eyesore here!”
Tang Xingwen was driven out by two security guards.
“Don’t regret it! I’ll succeed!”
Tang Xingwen screamed angrily as he left.
With teary eyes, his once-strong determination had now faded.
He truly believed in the scar-removal cream he wanted to develop!
But these people saw him as nothing more than a delusional madman and didn’t believe in him at all!
Just because those developed countries couldn’t do it, they thought it was impossible.
He had traveled all over Huaguo and still couldn’t find a company willing to invest in him.
“Damn…”
Tang Xingwen bitterly laughed as he rubbed his flattened stomach.
At that moment, his phone rang.
A call from Shenzhen came in.
