"Mr. Mo, you're joking. I don't have your good fortune to find a beauty like Miss Murong as my wife. I'm still a lonely bachelor, with no Mrs. Feng in sight," Feng Tianshu said gracefully, waving his hand and smiling.
"With President Feng's qualifications, what kind of woman can't you find? Perhaps it's just that your standards are too high, and no one meets your expectations," Mo Ming replied, a subtle smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
After retiring, Mo Ming had mingled quite a bit in the business world. He understood the mindset of these wealthy individuals all too well. If it weren't for his own capabilities, Feng Tianshu wouldn't even spare him a glance today, let alone engage in conversation.
"Well, fate will come when it's meant to. I'm not in a hurry. As a man, I should establish my career before starting a family. I want to enjoy a few years of freedom and build my own enterprise," Feng Tianshu said humbly and politely.
Murong Wei laughed heartily, "President Feng, your company is spread all over the world! You've claimed the title of business prodigy; such an achievement is something countless men dream of. Aren't you satisfied?"
"The title of business prodigy isn't mine alone to claim. Dark Qi is a business rival I respect greatly. Once I truly earn that title for myself, then I'll be satisfied," Feng Tianshu sighed, casting a meaningful glance at Mo Ming.
Noticing Feng Tianshu's gaze, Mo Ming slightly furrowed his brow, just enough that no one could detect it.
After retiring from the military years ago, Mo Ming founded the mysterious organization "Yihun" while also amassing significant funds through stock trading and other channels.
Using extraordinary means, Mo Ming gradually established an empire in the business world. Due to its rapid and vast development, he was referred to as Dark Qi, alongside Mingqi and Feng Tianshu.
Few knew about Dark Qi in the business realm, but just now, it seemed as if Feng Tianshu recognized him as Dark Qi.
Regardless of whether Feng Tianshu truly knew or not, Mo Ming didn't want to dwell on it. He tightened his embrace around Murong Lian and smiled, "Reputation and wealth are merely possessions. If it came down to Lian Lian, I'd give up all my wealth without hesitation. Therefore, I hope President Feng doesn't focus solely on business and let life pass by."
"Lian Lian?"
Murong Lian was somewhat surprised. Ever since her relationship with Mo Ming had progressed further, he had always called her by her full name. Today was rare; he addressed her so affectionately and naturally.
"This guy Mo Ming actually called me Lian Lian... He even said he would be willing to give up everything for me!" Murong Lian felt both astonished and secretly delighted, her cheeks flushed like they were kissed by the sun's rays.
A woman's greatest happiness is to meet a man who is willing to give up everything for her!
At this moment, Murong Lian felt a deep sense of happiness. Although she was not the only woman in Mo Ming's life, when a man is willing to sacrifice his wealth just for her, he is indeed reliable.
Beside them, Murong Wei listened to Mo Ming's words and secretly felt pleased: "This son-in-law is quite good; Lian'er will not suffer with him."
"Mr. Mo only loves beautiful women and not power; such a state of life is something I can hardly achieve now," Feng Tianshu said with self-deprecation, pulling at the corner of his mouth.
Feng Tianshu had indeed learned through various channels that Dark Qi was Mo Ming. His purpose for returning to Nanhua City was twofold: first, to meet Mo Ming, and second, for today's auction.
Mo Ming noticed Feng Tianshu's self-mockery and smiled slightly: "Everyone has their own aspirations; each person has their own way of living. President Feng, you aim high, so why seek unnecessary troubles?"
"Haha, Mr. Mo speaks wisely. I, Feng Tianshu, have greatly benefited from our conversation today. I hope we can cooperate in the future!"
Feng Tianshu held great admiration for Dark Qi, who was on par with him. He did not wish to have a conflict with Mo Ming if it could be avoided.
After all, having one more friend means one more support, while having one more enemy means one more danger. Moreover, someone as capable as Mo Ming was not someone Feng Tianshu wanted to see become his adversary.
"Of course, President Feng's hopes are my hopes," Mo Ming replied with a faint smile. He adhered to the principle of treating others with respect; if Feng Tianshu treated him well, he would return the kindness with a friendly smile.
Murong Wei watched as Mo Ming and Feng Tianshu got along so well and couldn't help but chuckle: "I never expected you two to hit it off so well. I’m an old man who doesn’t dare to interrupt. President Feng, you must look out for my son-in-law in the future."
"Does Murong Wei truly not understand or is he pretending not to? Asking me to look out for someone whose strength is comparable to mine?"
Feng Tianshu looked at the lightly smiling Mo Ming with a sense of respect and couldn't help but chuckle: "What you say is too modest, Mr. Mo is exceptionally talented; there’s no need for me to look out for him. However, if Mr. Mo needs any assistance, I would be more than happy to help."
"Ha ha... With President Feng's words, Mo Ming, your path in the business world will be much smoother from now on," Murong Wei laughed heartily.
If Murong Wei knew that Mo Ming was the infamous Dark Qi in the business world, he would probably feel ashamed of his words at this moment. Who could have imagined that such a young boy was already a well-known figure in the business community as Dark Qi?
Feng Tianshu, who was in the know, could only smile wryly...
"President Feng, I take your words seriously. If I seek your cooperation in the future, you can't refuse me," Mo Ming said, his tone ambiguous, leaving Feng Tianshu somewhat puzzled.
"Seriously, I don't think anyone would refuse a Fortune God knocking on their door."
Feng Tianshu felt that the young man's depth of character was completely disproportionate to his age. Beneath his seemingly naive exterior, Feng Tianshu believed that Mo Ming had the cunning heart of a sly old fox.
Mo Ming indeed had his own calculations. Feng Tianshu was incredibly wealthy, and with the power of the Feng Family behind him, he was indeed a suitable ally. If these two extraordinary figures joined forces, wouldn’t they dominate the business world?
Mo Ming truly did not care about how much money he could make; he had little interest in controlling the business realm.
His intentions were clear: to undermine the influence of the Dark Order. How does a force develop? Naturally, it relies on economic support. Mo Ming aimed to strike at the Dark Order economically!
In the following time, Murong Wei, Mo Ming, and Feng Tianshu casually chatted while Murong Lian linked her arm with Mo Ming's, listening to their conversation without saying a word, still pondering over Mo Ming's earlier remarks.
"Distinguished guests, on behalf of the organizers of this auction, Nanhua City Government, I sincerely welcome you all to attend. The auction is about to begin!"
The host of this auction, a beautifully dressed woman, stepped onto the stage in the hall. Her voice was melodious as she announced that the auction was about to commence.
Soon, everyone around moved closer to the stage; each person had a common purpose for being there—to compete for the auction items... land in Nanhua City's West District.
The land is quite large, approximately five hundred hectares, located to the west of Nanhua City. It is not in a bustling area, but the environment is beautiful, making it a good place for residential buildings. Originally, the government planned to build affordable housing for those struggling in the city.
However, Fu Meng, the Rascal Mayor, after careful consideration, decided that since it was for affordable housing, the environment did not need to be overly beautiful. Instead, he thought it would be better to sell the land in the West District and use the proceeds to build affordable housing elsewhere, which would actually provide more funds to expand the scale of affordable housing. Thus, today's auction was organized.
Mo Ming heard the Hostess's words and smiled, saying, "Murong Old Man... Father-in-law, President Feng, the auction has started; let's go take a look."
He was used to calling Murong Old Man and found it hard to switch to Father-in-law; just now he almost slipped up.
Murong Lian pinched Mo Ming's arm discontentedly and whispered a warning, "Don't be so disrespectful in the future, got it?"
"Got it, I misspoke..." Mo Ming replied awkwardly with a smile.
...
Seeing that most people had gathered around, the Hostess smiled and said, "I believe everyone has come prepared and knows what is up for auction today. I won't waste your precious time with unnecessary introductions. Now, let’s start the auction!"
A hostess dressed in a red cheongsam walked onto the stage holding a Golden Plate. The Hostess picked up a bag of legal documents from the plate and waved it, saying, "These are all the legal documents for the land in Nanhua City's West District. The starting bid is six billion!"
Six billion is an astronomical figure; however, for those present, it was not much. Therefore, when the Hostess announced this number, there was no gasp of surprise.
"Six hundred fifty million!" an executive from M Country raised his hand and stated his bid.
Soon after, another executive raised his hand and said, "Seven hundred million!"
"Eight hundred million!"
The land in Nanhua City's West District skyrocketed from an initial bid of six hundred billion to eight hundred billion in less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, an increase of two hundred billion. It must be said, this is a crazy auction.
Everyone present was a super-rich individual worth several hundred billion, and they didn't think much of this mere hundred billion. Mo Ming watched the frantic bidding without any urgency to place his own bid.
Mo Ming had a clear plan for this piece of land in West District; he was determined to acquire it. He intended to build a park-like residential area there, planning to settle down in that place for his future life.
"Mr. Mo, the land in West District has reached one trillion; are you still not planning to make a move?" Feng Tianshu said with a faint smile. He could see the determination in Mo Ming's eyes.
Mo Ming wasn't worried about Feng Tianshu knowing his intentions and replied with an honest smile, "No rush. No matter how much this land costs, I am determined to secure it. I don't care how much they bid; I only care about your offer, President Feng!"
Mo Ming had thoroughly investigated the wealth of those present; he never fought battles he wasn't confident about. Besides Feng Tianshu, he truly didn't care about anyone else here!
Before Feng Tianshu could respond, a middle-aged man nearby sneered, "How ridiculous! A young kid like you, relying on your family's wealth to act arrogant. You think you can secure this? Aren't you afraid of embarrassing yourself?"
Mo Ming looked at the middle-aged man with a slight smile and said, "Sorry, being arrogant is true, but my family isn't wealthy. My dad's entire fortune amounts to at most a few million."
The middle-aged man scoffed, "You’re being arrogant without money? How foolish! What do you think you are?"
