Li Cheng Group soon received a response from Dragon Fang Capital.
"Dragon Fang Capital is offering 800 million!"
Chu Ruoxue was stunned.She hadn't expected Dragon Fang Capital to be willing to pay 800 million for the land in her hands.
Their company had originally paid 600 million for that land.
If they sold now, they would earn an extra 200 million in profit.
This amount would completely solve their current financial crisis—And still leave them with surplus funds.
The fact that Dragon Fang Capital was willing to add an extra 200 million…
It proved this land must have huge hidden value—and they were not going to give it up easily.
Chu Ruoxue's mind began calculating rapidly.
"What about Lin Investment Company? Has Alex Lin responded?"
The secretary replied, "Not yet."
"Inform Lin Investment Company about Dragon Fang Capital's offer. I don't believe they can stay calm!"
"Yes, President Chu!"
The next day arrived.
"Any reaction from Lin Investment Company?" Chu Ruoxue asked.
"Still none," the secretary replied.
Chu Ruoxue frowned in disappointment.
"But—"
"But what?" Chu Ruoxue raised her head.
"But Dragon Fang Capital has increased their offer. Now it's 850 million, an extra fifty million."
Chu Ruoxue was speechless.
She didn't even say anything, yet the other party raised the offer by another fifty million?
Did they not treat money as money?
Were they stupid… or was the land truly worth a fortune?
"Notify Lin Investment Company again," she ordered.
"Yes, President Chu."
Another day passed.
"Has Alex Lin reacted?"
"Still nothing! But Dragon Fang Capital increased again—to 900 million."
"...What the hell!"
Chu Ruoxue almost cursed out loud.
Dragon Fang Capital's aggression was starting to scare even her.
In just a short time, they had raised the offer from 800 to 900 million—
Adding 100 million like it was loose change!
It was as if they were shouting:
"We're rich and stupid—come rob us!!"
She was extremely tempted to sell immediately and pocket the money.
But her reason held her back.
If they were willing to pay 900 million...
Then the value of this land must far exceed that.
Selling it now would be a mistake.
"Notify Lin Investment Company again!"
"Yes, President Chu!"
"Wait—I'll call personally!"
The call quickly connected.
Alex Lin's calm voice came through."President Chu, what is it? Why did you call?"
Chu Ruoxue replied irritably,"What else could it be? It's about the Jiangnan land! Dragon Fang Capital has already raised their offer to 900 million, more than a 50% premium! I'm really considering selling.
We're waiting for your response!Are you buying or not? Give me an answer!"
Alex Lin's relaxed voice replied:
"Does it matter?You never planned to sell it in the first place."
Chu Ruoxue's eyebrows twitched sharply.
His words struck right at her sore spot.
"You—Who said I'm not selling? The price just isn't satisfactory yet! So I'm waiting to hear your company's opinion!"
Alex Lin replied casually,"Well then, I'll make it clear—I'm not buying. You can negotiate with Dragon Fang."
Chu Ruoxue was speechless.
"If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up."And Alex Lin hung up decisively.
Chu Ruoxue gritted her teeth so hard she nearly cracked a molar.
Since meeting Alex Lin, she felt like all her luck had run away.
"Wait, don't hang up!" she shouted—but too late.
She immediately called again.
This time, Alex Lin answered lazily."Speak."
Chu Ruoxue inhaled deeply."You and Dragon Fang Capital both want this land. Tell me—what is the true value of this land? If you tell me, I'll owe you a favor."
Alex Lin's response was as calm as ever."Go ask Dragon Fang. If they're willing to spend the money, they naturally know its value."
"I already asked—they won't say!"
"Then I can't help you. Goodbye."
Beep—
The call ended again.
Chu Ruoxue nearly smashed her phone.
Every time she talked to Alex Lin, she felt her blood pressure rise.
Afterward, she locked herself in her office, contemplating every angle.
A moment later, the secretary walked in.
"President Chu, Dragon Fang Capital has increased their offer again—to 950 million!"
Chu Ruoxue stood up abruptly.
"Tell them to stop increasing the price.We're not selling this land, no matter how much they offer.
We'll develop it ourselves."
The secretary was shocked.
"D-develop it ourselves? But President Chu… we don't have the money!"
"That's why we need a wealthy strategic partner."Chu Ruoxue smiled slightly.
"Alex Lin from Lin Investment Company would make a very good partner."
The secretary's eyes widened.
"President Chu… Dragon Fang Capital is offering nearly a billion with such sincerity. Why choose Alex Lin instead?"
