Chapter 744: Chapter 315: The Bamboo Pole Worth Billions

Zuo Zongcai and Su Huai exchanged mischievous grins, "Ms. Wang really wants to wear that outfit~~~"

Su Huai turned to glance at Gu, who was still the brightest star in the crowd with her horse-faced skirt, unbeatable by any evening gown or princess dress.

But he was still puzzled, "If she wants to wear it, why doesn’t she just talk to Gu about it? Why come to me?"

Zuo Zongcai spread his hands, "Gu doesn’t agree, so Ms. Wang asked Mr. Gu to persuade you, and Mr. Gu handed the task to me. Do you understand now?"

Eh?

Su Huai suddenly got it.

The essence of the problem was that Gu Tongshu had to suck it up and humble himself before Su Huai once again.

Gou Huai’s spirits lifted as he asked the critical question, "This time, how much can Gu withstand?"

Zuo Zongcai stopped acting and chuckled wickedly, "At the very least, it can’t be cheaper than my building, right?"

"Holy shit! Really?"

Gou Huai was overjoyed. He could save around 20 million on renting Changqing Building—every year.

And the total amount Zuo Zongcai paid for the 5-year lease could reach 200 million. If he could knock down the same value from Gu, then the cash flow for investing in Panda was almost ready.

"Is Gu up for it?"

Zuo Zongcai smiled meaningfully, "Ms. Wang is a very good person. She’s always reasoning and understanding to the outside world, but Mr. Gu always feels indebted to her, and she’s currently very insistent... Do you get what I mean?"

"I don’t understand," Su Huai cackled strangely, "but I know what to do now~~~"

"Smart!" Zuo Zongcai gave a thumbs up, also laughing wildly.

Gu Tongshu, oh Gu Tongshu, do you have any good cards left?

A wife and an executive assistant are both turning their backs on you in such a situation, where can you run?

Of course, Wang Lezhi’s original intention was likely to create an opportunity to help Su Huai and Gu Tongshu resolve their differences, but when President Gu handed over the task to Zuo Zongcai, who had just been heavily charged, things were no longer that simple...

Su Huai realized this profound and correct point and thus decisively asked, "Bro, can you give me some advice on what I should ask for?"

"Ptui! You little rascal, you should call me Uncle!"

Zuo Zongcai cursed jokingly, immediately becoming excited to offer suggestions.

"This time it’s not just about what you lack, but also what he has. Something that would be painful for him to give but won’t break the bank. Something special that he can comfort himself with when handing it over, telling himself ’this thing isn’t worth much,’ but to you, it’s like saving two or three billion..."

"That’s brilliant!"

Su Huai genuinely flattered him. This guy was truly wicked, no wonder he could become Gu Tongshu’s crafty and cunning friend~~~

"So what does he have?"

"That’s quite a lot."

Zuo Zongcai replied leisurely, "For instance, shares in Wanda Commercial Management, want some?"

Su Huai didn’t hesitate for a second and firmly shook his head, "Nope."

"Eh?"

Zuo Zongcai clapped softly in surprise, clearly impressed, "Not bad, you’re still very lucid and rational. Seems I’ve underestimated you..."

After a pause, he added, "He couldn’t give that to you anyway. Money aside, that’s a strategic-level asset related to the core influence of the Gu Clan. We wouldn’t sell it to you at a fair price."

Here, Zuo Zongcai used the word "we."

Friends who often dine with chiefs would surely recognize this as a not-so-subtle reminder—the message being, I can mess around with you as long as it doesn’t affect the big picture, but when it comes to serious matters, I’m still with Gu Tongshu, got it?

Su Huai certainly understood but he just covertly pursed his lips with a smile and moved on.

As if anyone was eager to be a Wanda shareholder...

Now, it was the time when Wanda’s stock prices and valuations were at their peak. Buying core assets from them, you’d only lose, never gain.

Wang kept it quiet in the background, her own daughter’s childcare costs had to be settled by a family brawl before being paid, all because the finances were tight, right?

Su Huai wasn’t in a hurry to go after Wang for money; he had Panda, and that was enough.

"So, what are the non-core assets? Give me some pointers!"

Feeling the restraint from Su Hai, Zuo Zongcai was very satisfied and began to "stab in the back" of Gu Tongshu.

"He has a bunch of damn impressive collectibles in his Jinling estate, interested?"

"Not interested."

Su Huai understood he wasn’t at the level to dabble in collectibles yet but was very curious, "What specifically does he have?"

Zuo Zongcai, animatedly, gave the lowdown, "There’s plenty. Glass-type imperial green jadeite from the old pits of Myanmar, a full set of rosewood furniture, unique pieces of calligraphy and paintings from ancient great poets and artists, aged Moutai, famous estate wines, old-tree teas, gold bars from Republican China, official kiln porcelain..."

"Wow! He sure didn’t skimp on collecting..." Su Huai was amazed.

"Of course not!" Zuo Zongcai huffed indignantly, "All those things, worth billions in collections, he wouldn’t even give me a teapot..."

Su Huai instantly became more cautious, "What do you want?"

"Huh? What’s with that attitude?"

Zuo Zongcai burst into laughter, "It’s not yours anyway!"

Su Huai continued to tease, "It’s a matter of sooner or later, you’d better not covet what you shouldn’t~~~"

"Damn!"

Old Zuo held up his middle finger, crudely for once, but Su Huai had it coming.

After the banter, Zuo Zongcai continued to enlighten Su Huai on which of Gu’s assets were not important but still highly coveted.

The chatter went on just like that, and it could only be Zuo Zongcai to divulge such detailed intelligence.

However, being as shrewd as he was, it was impossible not to be careful with the disclosures. The things he really pulled out to discuss with Su Huai were all trivial.
