At the Dai Family, it was brightly lit.
Boss Dai, Mother Dai, and Annie were all sitting at the dining table waiting.
Seeing Chen Yang arrive, Mother Dai hurriedly got up to greet him.
"Divine Doctor Chen, you're here. Please sit, please sit, we were just waiting for you to start the meal." Mother Dai warmly pulled out a chair for Chen Yang.
"Chen Yang, you're really fast; we thought it would take a little while longer." Annie stood up excitedly upon seeing Chen Yang.
Chen Yang hadn't seen Annie for a while, and he missed her.
Seeing Annie made him happy.
"There weren't many cars on the road, so I got here quickly." Chen Yang smiled and answered Annie, and after exchanging a few polite words with Mother Dai, he sat at the dining table.
Once seated, they didn't directly discuss business.
Instead, they started with the dishes and ate.
When they were almost done eating, Mother Dai said to Annie, "Annie, come upstairs with me to sort through some clothes. It's been a while since we cleaned them out; we need to donate the ones we don't use."
Upon hearing this, Annie didn't immediately react.
She hesitated but then responded after seeing Mother Dai's expression.
"Oh, alright, let's go, Mom."
Annie glanced at Chen Yang, then linked arms with Mother Dai, and went upstairs.
As they left, Mother Dai also called away the maids and servants from the living room.
Suddenly, only Chen Yang and Dai Jinsong were left in the living room.
"Boss Dai, regarding the investment, what are your thoughts? Do you have any reservations?" Seeing the atmosphere was right, Chen Yang didn't hesitate and directly asked Dai Jinsong what he thought about the matter.
Dai Jinsong invited Chen Yang over specifically for the investment issue, so naturally, he wouldn't avoid the topic.
"I'm very optimistic about this project. After all, it's a top-tier tourist area supported by policy. Once completed, its reputation and business prospects are certainly promising. It's a lucrative project." Dai Jinsong said.
"However, judging by the current situation, things don't look too promising. The Murong Family and Gu Family have issued warnings within the circle; you should be aware of that."
Dai Jinsong suddenly changed the tone, mentioning the Gu Family and Murong Family.
Of course, Chen Yang had anticipated that Dai Jinsong would bring this up, so he had already prepared his response.
"Yes, I knew this first. But it doesn't mean anything. Policy is policy; no matter how strong they are, once I successfully complete it, all they can do is watch helplessly." Chen Yang answered calmly.
Dai Jinsong paused, surprised by Chen Yang's confidence in facing the pressure from the two giants, the Gu Family and Murong Family.
"How can you be sure you have enough money to complete it? What if funding gets cut off or it's not enough—what's your plan then?" Dai Jinsong asked again after a brief silence.
"I haven't thought about that yet, but I have confidence in myself; I'll definitely succeed." Chen Yang still replied plainly.
Though his tone was plain, it carried strong self-assurance.
This was quite unexpected for Dai Jinsong.
"Boss Dai, business is always about balancing profit and risk. I understand the challenges you face regarding this investment. After all, many aspects between the Dai Family and Gu Family are intertwined. If you invest with me, you might face the Gu Family's retaliation."
"I understand your concerns, but I also hope you'll consider collaborating with me. After all, the profits from Liuhua Village aren't small; if successful, they'll easily offset any revenge from the Gu Family." Chen Yang expressed his perspective before Dai Jinsong could respond.
This statement hit the nail on the head.
For both public and personal reasons, Dai Jinsong wanted to invest in Chen Yang.
Not to mention Chen Yang's kindness to his family, his relationship with Annie adds to the motivation.
In addition, the investment itself is a rewarding project.
Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't hesitate to invest in Chen Yang.
But the real problem now is the suppression from the Gu Family and Murong Family, which could drastically shake his business.
If Chen Yang succeeds, that's great. If he fails, not only would Dai Jinsong lose his position as the wealthiest, but he might also face bankruptcy.
This forces him to think carefully.
"It's good you understand my concerns." Dai Jinsong still didn't express a stance and said this instead.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang didn't say anything else, waiting quietly opposite Dai Jinsong for his decision.
"Can you first explain the current situation and how the shares are managed?" After a minute or two of silence, Dai Jinsong suddenly spoke.
This question made Chen Yang's heart race with a bit of excitement.
If Dai Jinsong was willing to discuss these topics, it meant he had basically made up his mind.
"Alright."
Chen Yang nodded with a smile, then started explaining the current situation in Liuhua Village.
He shared information about the shares, the required investment for the project, and what stage they were currently preparing for.
After hearing this, Dai Jinsong fell silent again.
This silence lasted more than ten minutes.
After over ten minutes, Dai Jinsong calmly said three words: "I'm in."
Before Chen Yang could speak, Dai Jinsong continued, "But my investment will be an invisible investment—only supplying money without appearing in shares. We'll go public with it when the time is right."
Of course, Chen Yang understood Dai Jinsong's intention.
This was to confuse the Gu Family, trying to buy some time before their suppression could affect them.
Chen Yang could understand this move by Dai Jinsong as well.
After all, to enjoy peaceful days longer, they'd suffer fewer losses.
"This is totally fine, Boss Dai. I'll do my best to keep it confidential, though the Gu Family may not keep it hidden for long. Problems will still arise then," Chen Yang said.
"I'm aware of that, but delaying it is better than nothing. After all, since Annie's incident, relations have soured with them. There's not much need for further interactions," Dai Jinsong replied easily.
From this reply, Chen Yang figured out that Dai Jinsong had long decided to cut ties with the Gu Family and didn't plan much involvement.
"Haha, if Boss Dai has such intentions, then there's no problem." Chen Yang nodded with a smile, keeping silent afterward.
After solving these issues, Dai Jinsong spontaneously discussed the matter of the investment amount.
Regarding the investment amount, Chen Yang naturally hoped for as much as possible, so he didn't say much to Dai Jinsong.
Instead, he let him decide.
"Since the Li Family is investing five billion, I'll also invest five billion. Give me your account number, and I'll consolidate everything to transfer directly into your account by tomorrow," Dai Jinsong decided, after thorough consideration, to invest five billion like Li Dad.
"Alright, thank you, Boss Dai. When it's completed, I'll share the agreed shares with you," Chen Yang nodded in thanks.
Dai Jinsong nodded upon hearing this, and after a few brief exchanges, they didn't continue talking much.
After all, the essential points had been covered and understood.
Business isn't particularly complicated.
Understanding the essence of the project and trusting its key people is all that's required.
