Chapter 428: Chapter 428 Simply Wonderful_1

The image of the cellphone suddenly overlapped with Shen Dong’s memory, a red flip-top commando series fighter jet.

"Chengyu, let’s go!" Shen Dong, getting carried away with his own excitement, dragged Zhou Chengyu towards the stage.

At this moment, the wedding had just reached the part involving the bride’s parents. Yang Guicheng was adjusting his collar and grooming himself, preparing to go on stage when Zhou Chengyu suddenly yanked him back.

With his daughter getting married, such a major event, Yang Guicheng immediately became furious. He turned around resentfully and scolded, "What is it, what can’t wait!"

"This really can’t wait." Shen Dong glanced quickly towards the direction of the groom and spoke hastily, "Your son-in-law is a fraud, cheating for money and love, he has more than a dozen wealthy women keeping him outside!"

Yang Guicheng’s face turned dark in an instant.

He frowned and looked at Zhou Chengyu, "Are you Mr. Zhao from Huaxu Real Estate?"

As he spoke, Yang Guicheng looked down at Shen Dong, "Young man, some things shouldn’t be said carelessly."

"But this is not without reason." Shen Dong was actually feeling nervous as well, if that cellphone didn’t contain the rich ladies’ information, what then?

In his memory, it seemed that Yang Guicheng’s daughter was the final prey for the groom Chen Jinshui, which meant that those wealthy women were from before.

At this time, Shen Dong couldn’t care about the what-ifs and directly said, "When he comes back, snatch his cellphone and everything will be crystal clear!"

"Oh, father-in-law?"

While they were speaking, Chen Jinshui came back clutching his cellphone.

Yang Guicheng’s complexion remained usual, and he walked towards Chen Jinshui with a naive smile, "My good son-in-law, I’m about to go on stage, about to entrust my daughter to you!"

Who could have imagined that with such a demeanor and tone, he would suddenly take action?

The speed of Yang Guicheng could be described as lightning fast.

Whilst Chen Jinshui still posed as a filial child, his cellphone was snatched away, and his face immediately changed.

Seeing this made Shen Dong very happy, and he pushed Zhou Chengyu, "Stop him!"

Chen Jinshui was genuinely anxious and cursed loudly, "You have no right to snatch my cellphone, give it back to me!"

This anger made it easy to see the true from the false.

Yang Guicheng’s face was as black as coal, but he still couldn’t let go, flipping through the cellphone, this scandal...

"Look at the memos, the notebook, things like that." Shen Dong whispered a reminder, then Chen Jinshui’s eyes, sharp as knives, shot a glance over.

Before long, Yang Guicheng’s eyes turned fierce, and he suddenly rushed forward, slapping Chen Jinshui directly on the face, "You’ve really got a death wish!"

"Take him away!"

As he said this, Yang Guicheng’s bodyguards flanked Chen Jinshui from the left and the right.

Chen Jinshui’s reaction was strange, not the initial panic, but an eerie smile instead, he glanced at Shen Dong with disdain.

"Thanks." Yang Guicheng was in a bad mood, saying thank you through gritted teeth, and turned to walk towards the stage.

Shen Dong quickly grabbed him, "Uncle, where are you going?"

As he spoke, Shen Dong urgently gestured to Zhou Chengyu, while verbally advising, "If you go up now and say the marriage is fake, how embarrassing that would be for my cousin."

A father’s love is heavy as a mountain, and Yang Guicheng pulled back the foot that had been suspended in midair.

He turned his head to look at Zhou Chengyu and then at Shen Dong, "Then what should we do?"

"You’re seriously ill, we need to take you to the hospital." Shen Dong blurted out and, upon further thought, realized this idea was simply brilliant.

Yang Guicheng lowered his head to think for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I’ll arrange for my secretary to go up and say I’m seriously ill, troubling Mr. Zhao to send me to the hospital."

"Sure!"

This made perfect sense.

Shen Dong was inwardly thrilled, texting Zhou Chengyu the message he intended to convey. While Yang Guicheng wasn’t paying attention, he gave Zhou Chengyu a heads-up and then said, "Chengyu, I need to get off the car, there’s an arcade over there."

"Go ahead, oh, do you have any money in your pocket?" Zhou Chengyu, under the pretense of taking out money, glanced at his phone to make sure he received the message, and then pulled over to stop the car.

As soon as he got out of the car, Shen Dong confidently leapt into the air.

Connections have always been web-like, strongly hierarchical. For example, a ninth-rank county magistrate wanting to meet a fourth-rank prefect is very difficult, and even giving gifts might not make it possible.

In such cases, first establishing good relationships with the insignificant buyers and yamen runners can gradually penetrate the circle of those close to the prefect.

Yang Guicheng was just such a person close to the Hai City Government Office, with him as a bridge, success was guaranteed.

Shen Dong was not afraid that Yang Guicheng would refuse; the matter concerning Chen Jinshui was a scandal for the Yang family, an emotional blow to Yang’s daughter, and for Yang Guicheng, it was a secret that could not be leaked.

"How could I not be a genius!" Shen Dong exclaimed in delight, strutting in the streets, utterly pleased with himself.

He ran joyfully, intending to return to Silver Moonlight to check the recent financial changes, but when he passed by Baixin Grocery Store, he stopped.

This supermarket, owned by Yang Haochen’s family, had set up more than twenty tables outside, with promotional banners fluttering in the wind, but there were only a few customers.

Upon closer inspection, Kang Shuai Fu iced tea for one yuan and fifty cents a bottle, salt for forty cents a packet—this wasn’t a promotion, it was practically a giveaway, and by all logic, it should have been mobbed by bargain hunters.

Realizing something was off, Shen Dong quickly called Yang Haochen.

As school was letting out, they agreed to meet at the mutton soup restaurant in front of Baixin Grocery Store.

Yang Haochen’s dejection was apparent on his face. Young as he was, he didn’t know how to feign happiness, and as soon as he saw Shen Dong, he slumped over the dining table, "I don’t know what’s happening, my dad just drinks every day, fights with my mom, and says the business is failing."

"It seems a new chain supermarket opened in the west, holding a grand opening with everything at ten percent off."

Ten percent off?

Shen Dong immediately understood; this was malicious competition from Jing City capital.

Businessmen from Jing City came in full force, ready to spend hundreds of thousands as startup funds for the sale, unaffected by the costs, yet for Baixin Grocery Store, no business for half a month meant that cash flow was failing.

Shen Dong thought of Kang Yue’s words, what are friends? They are not those who laugh and joke together every day, but those who lend a hand at a critical moment.

"Tell your dad not to worry, and don’t you talk nonsense with him either. Leave it to me, I’ll handle this."

"Really?" Yang Haochen perked up immediately, but then became dejected again, his face glum, "That’s adults’ business, it would need lots and lots of thousands of yuan to handle, you can’t help."

"I plan to use the achievements of the tech department to exchange for shares in brand-name companies. Take a look at this and see which brands’ shares are worth trading for."

This was a blatant test.

Choosing a partner from over ninety brands would usually require at least six months of investigation, including on-site visits...

Unaware, Shen Dong pointed out several future well-reputed brands and said, "Just these few, but, managing so many companies and setting up Huaxu Labor Headquarters, aren’t we spreading ourselves too thin?"

As expected.

Tang Yuchan, looking at the marked companies on the table, felt her heart thumping wildly. Choosing partners just by their names, did she really have a past life?

She suppressed the absurdity in her heart, her gaze flickering as she responded, "You don’t need to worry about that. The responsibility field model is very vigorous; Huaxu’s various groups will announce their performance every evening at eight, including complaints and returns, and the competition is ruthlessly survival of the fittest."
