...

It wasn't that Sun Shu had quickly turned his face and no longer recognized people, or that he looked down on Fang Tong.

As one always knows one's own family matters, the project he worked on with Fang Tong was indeed quite good, but he had also put in a lot of effort.

Especially to make the project successful, he had spent quite a bit of his personal goodwill.

In the end, the revenue was not as much as Fang Tong had said, and even though they actually split it sixty-forty, taking sixty percent didn't amount to much.

When Qin Fang opened his mouth, it was as if tens of millions in profit had gone into his pocket, even that goodwill was from someone else Qin Fang had found, so it didn't have much to do with him; this gift was far stronger than what Fang Tong offered.

Compared to Qin Fang, Fang Tong was nothing!

This wasn't Sun Shu's thought, but rather sprang from the mind of Mother Su, who was eavesdropping behind them...

"Five to six hundred million... To give away just like that, you have to be incredibly rich to afford that!"

Mother Su's little heart thumped fiercely, almost bursting out of her mouth, and if she hadn't forcibly held back from making a sound, she might have screamed already.

Before, she had felt Qin Fang was very impressive, far more reliable than Fang Tong... Besides, Ninghai was also a nationally renowned city, it wasn't much inferior to Shenzhou!

With that thought, Mother Su's mind became much more active. Looking at her daughter Su Xiaoxiao and Qin Fang being so intimate, a smile instantly bloomed on her face.

Of course, she wasn't very far from Qin Fang and the others, but she didn't run over. Seeing Fang Tong seemed intent on competing with Qin Fang, she naturally preferred to quietly observe the happenings.

Instead of sitting there and making everyone uncomfortable, eavesdropping from here seemed more appropriate.

"Brother, let's not say anything unnecessary, if this thing goes through, I absolutely won't let you down..."

With such a large project and so much profit, although it was promised to Sun Shu, Sun Shu wasn't the kind of person who was clueless, stating very clearly,

"Brother Sun, that's really not necessary... I'm just helping you make a connection, after all, the project has to go to someone, and it might as well earn something extra for a brother!"

Qin Fang said with a cheerful smile, he really didn't care too much about this minor sum, just owning thirty percent of this company's stock was like being handed a huge sum of money, being greedy for this little bit more would be really indecent.

"Don't mention it..."

Sun Shu wanted to say more, blood is thicker than water after all, and he didn't want Qin Fang to get the wrong impression of insincerity.

"Young Master Sun, Mr. Qin, is this feasible? With such a huge cost, just phase one of the project amounts to an investment of several billion, it must be a major enterprise, how can such construction projects possibly be secured just by talking?"

However, Fang Tong also looked unhappy. Initially, Sun Shu was on his side, but with just a few words of coaxing from Qin Fang, he had apparently switched sides, showing a warmth that was obviously much greater than what he showed him.

This was clearly not what he had hoped to see, and with his own understanding of the industry, he immediately pointed out something slightly unusual.

In the country, industrial project investments are generally measured in billions, unless they are foreign-funded enterprises, and generally only state-owned enterprises could have such scale.

Projects with state-owned enterprises, much like government departments, involve very complex interests, definitely not something that one person, in one word, can easily handle.

Of course, unless you're someone with very solid connections...

Looking at Qin Fang, and vaguely recalling what Sun Shu had mentioned about Qin Fang's identity, he felt that Qin probably didn't have that much power...

With Fang Tong's reminder, Sun Shu's brow also slightly furrowed, showing a bit of concern, whether because he thought Fang Tong was too talkative or worried that Qin Fang's claim was unreliable, only he would know.

Qin Fang naturally heard this statement too, but his face showed no displeasure; instead, he smiled lightly and gave Fang Tong a meaningful look, his eyes brimming with playful intent.

Fang Tong, under Qin Fang's gaze, didn't know if it was out of guilt or something else, felt significantly diminished in front of Qin, as if all his radiance was completely overshadowed, leaving him with a very inferior feeling.

It was just a look, but it made Fang Tong feel suddenly short of breath...

But Qin Fang on the other side just smiled, a gentle, calm smile, yet his eyes contained a few strange shades, and the smile at the corner of his mouth twitched slightly as if he was suppressing something.

"Brother, no matter what, thanks for setting up this connection for me today, whether it succeeds or fails, I won't let you down..."

Sun Shu didn't react as Fang Tong imagined, turning against Qin Fang or harboring many doubts, but openly showed a very broad-minded demeanor.

So it must be said that Sun Shu was very good at dealing with people. Even under such circumstances, when he spoke, he indeed made it difficult for anyone to feel anything unpleasant.

"Brother Sun, it seems you still don't believe it..."

Most people, upon hearing Sun Shu's words, would not have said much more, but Qin Fang just laughed directly, seemingly a bit disrespectful.

"How about this, since Young Master Fang doubts the truth of this matter, let me talk about something else..."

Qin Fang was neither hurried nor slow, and he wasn't targeting Sun Shu, but rather Fang Tong. The exchange of glances earlier had revealed Fang Tong's timidity, allowing Qin Fang to seize the opportunity to extract a bit of useful information from the depths of his mind, which he could now use.

This was the advantage of ordinary people having weak wills; he could easily use the Mind Reading Technique without the need for deliberate oppression or intimidation...

"Brother Sun, I heard you and Young Master Fang are working on a project together. I wonder where it's located? I might know some friends there who could perhaps help."

Having learned some useful information, Qin naturally wanted to make use of it, but he couldn't leap straight to the point, as that would not allow him to explain how he knew this inside information, so he opted for an indirect approach.

"I'm afraid you might not be able to help with that, the project is in Shenzhou..."

Sun Shu also didn't seem too concerned, the project was essentially already settled and his people had already set off; there was no need for help anymore.

"Shenzhou, huh... I actually do know a few people there!"

This, of course, was something Qin Fang had already known, but he pretended to mutter and ponder for a bit before leisurely saying, "Young Master Fang, have you heard of the Xiao Family in Shenzhou?"

"The Xiao Family in Shenzhou?"

When Fang Tong heard Qin Fang suddenly ask this, he wasn't very concerned initially, but then his expression changed sharply, "Are you talking about that Shengshi Group in Shenzhou?"

"Seems like it, I can't quite remember..."

Qin Fang posed an uncertain face, but his tone remained dismissive, "A friend of mine is from the Xiao Family, seems like he holds quite a position... apparently, he's the company's heir!"

"That's impossible..."

Fang Tong's first reaction was that Qin Fang was lying, talking nonsense.

As someone from Shenzhou, it was impossible not to know about the Shengshi Group's Xiao Family, which was definitely a major business in Shenzhou and had considerable investments throughout Southern Guangdong Province.

The Xiao Family had many members, and several branches were quite sizable, yet it seemed there was only one heir, the direct grandson of the Shengshi Group's founder, the real Xiao Da Shao.

The other branches might manage some of the subsidiary companies under Shengshi Group and might get a bit of stock options, but none of them had inheritance rights.

Despite this, these members of the Xiao Family were still quite impressive; just any one of them stepping out was much more influential than him, Fang Tong.

Just like this project he was working on with Sun Shu, he had only secured it through much effort and money by finding a junior from one of the Xiao Family's branches.

"Brother, you know someone from the Shengshi Group?"

Sun Shu, however, ignored Fang Tong; the Xiao Family had deep roots in Shenzhou, and he had learned some about it from Fang Tong. Had it not been for this knowledge, he would not have rashly collaborated with Fang Tong.

And now that he knew Qin Fang actually knew the heir to the Shengshi Group, the real Xiao Da Shao, things were completely different.

The project he and Fang Tong were working on had taken quite a bit of effort and money to secure from a junior branch member and had resulted in reduced profits, but it was still worth it.

However, Qin Fang was different from Fang Tong; he was much more generous. If he could become connected with Xiao Da Shao, with many of the real estate projects under the Shengshi Group, he could get involved a little, and naturally, the money would be easier to earn...

Others thought he, Sun Shu, was wealthy because of his familial background, but they did not know that while he indeed leveraged his background, every penny he earned was clean, much cleaner than other second-generation officials...

If this weren't the case, how could his upright uncle possibly tolerate him doing this?

"Indeed, I know him well... If you have time, I can introduce you!"

Qin Fang said quite indifferently.

The person he was talking about was none other than Xiao Nan from the dormitory, the Xiao Family's sole heir. But very few truly knew his identity; Qin was one of them.

However, Xiao Nan, the heir to a wealth of several tens of billions, really was irreverent; doing business and making money was neither his goal nor hobby... What truly fascinated him was computers, to the extent that even women took a back seat, nowhere near comparable to computers. It seemed that this young man's future goal was to become a world-class hacker... although at present, his skills were just about top-tier domestically only (To be continued.
