Three minutes later, the elevator stopped at the eighteenth floor. Ye Fan followed Han Nanhua and the others out, feeling a sense of danger approaching.
But when he scanned the corridor, he found no one there. There were only a row of statues of Chinese and foreign figures on both sides.
His eyes looked at Guan Gong at the end entrance.
It was a one-to-one proportioned statue, with a murderous expression on its face and a majestic sword in its hand.
Seeing Ye Fan's slow steps, Han Nanhua asked curiously: "Brother Ye, what's wrong?"
Ye Fan slowly looked away and smiled: "It's nothing. Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden and was stunned for a moment."
When Lin Furong saw this, she snorted: "Bumpkin."
"Hahaha, Brother Ye is joking."
Han Nanhua laughed loudly: "With your accomplishments, are you still timid?"
Then he turned his hand slightly and led Ye Fan and the others into the hall at the end.
As soon as the door opened, Ye Fanton felt that the light became brighter, and his field of vision became wider. He saw more than a dozen people gathered in the hall, both men and women, wearing clean clothes and collars.
But the most eye-catching thing is the woman sitting among them.
Wearing black leather clothes and trousers, she has a messy short hairstyle with some highlights in the front dyed burgundy, and a black snake tattoo on her fair face.
Her eyes are narrow and long, and her eyelashes are very long. She always seems to have a habit of squinting, giving her eyes a dangerous feeling.
"Mr. Han, good evening."
Seeing Han Nanhua, Ye Fan and others walking in, the woman in black immediately stood up with a smile: "Long time no see."
She smiled brightly, but Ye Fan felt a chill.
Han Nanhua's eyes turned cold when he saw Black Snake: "Black Snake? So it's you. Who dared to seize my goods and come to China Shipping to negotiate?"
"It turns out to be you, this beautiful snake."
He pulled up a chair and sat down: "But whether you are a snake or a dragon, you have to give me an explanation tonight."
"By the way, where is Jue Wen?"
Han Yue and Han's bodyguards tensed up after hearing this.
"Mr. Han, people of the bright side don't speak secretly."
The black snake bloomed with a charming smile:
"It was true that I robbed the boat you were carrying the rough stone on. Jue Wen, who was helping you to secure the cargo, fell into the river and drowned. I also took the fifty people under his command into my custody."
"Now the 50 kilometers of river journey from Cuiguo to the border, the last ten kilometers are completely under my control."
"I will be one of Qianbao Group's partners from now on."
"In order to show my respect and goodwill to Mr. Han, I will not only return the goods with both hands, but I will also reduce the freight by half."
"In this way, Mr. Han's rough stone cost can be reduced by another 10%."
She took a step forward and said respectfully: "Congratulations, Mr. Han."
Ye Fan glanced at the woman and could see that underneath her respect, there was a snake-like thought.
Lin Furong relaxed her nerves. Black Snake's show of goodwill made her feel that the other party was a minor role.
"died?"
There was no joy on Han Nanhua's face. Instead, he sneered: "Jue Wen is young and strong and can still cross the Mekong River. Would I believe he could drown?"
"Did you kill him?"
As these words came out, Han Yue and the others became more vigilant.
Faced with Han Nanhua's questioning, Black Snake smiled indifferently: "Mr. Han, dead people are worthless for discussion."
"The person who killed me controls half of my channels. What do you want?"
Han Nanhua went straight to the point: "Revenge? Or blackmail?"
Ye Fan glanced around and found that there were more than twenty people around Black Snake. They were all dark and tall, but they were extremely refined.
"Mr. Han, there are no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interests."
Black Snake remained polite: "I believe that I can bring benefits to Qianbao Group."
She also snapped her fingers, and several of her men immediately opened the four boxes and placed them on the table from behind.
A piece of jade, a golden Buddha statue, a ginseng plant, and a spear.
Ye Fan was shocked when he saw this. They were all top-quality things. If they were added up, they would be worth one billion. This woman was really bold in taking action.
However, while he was shocked, he also caught the teasing look in the black snake's eyes, and immediately knew that these things were hot.
"Emperor Green? Tang Golden Buddha? Millennium Ginseng? Overlord Spear?"
Han Nanhua's eyelids also twitched: "What a waste of money."
He is not only an antique tycoon, but also an expert in antique appraisal. With just a few glances, you can tell that these things are 99% real.
And they are all valuable.
Black Snake's tone was respectful: "As long as Mr. Han likes it, it doesn't matter how big the money is."
Lin Furong despised the black snake even more. She thought that the black snake who stole the goods was so powerful. In the end, she not only returned the goods, but also gave gifts to apologize, which turned her into a coward.
It seems there is no risk tonight.
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me why you're here."
Han Nanhua waved his hand: "Don't talk nonsense about making friends."
"Mr. Han is happy."
Black Snake smiled sweetly, with an indescribable charm on her pretty face: "Mr. Jiang wants the fallen leaves to return to their roots, and I hope Mr. Han can show his noble hand."
"Jiang Hualong?"
Han Nanhua's mood didn't change much: "I once thought that the Xiong brothers' attack on Song's niece was just an accident."
"I didn't expect that Jiang Hualong is really coming back."
"He is wandering around well, why would he make trouble again?"
Han Nanhua sighed: "Wouldn't it be wrong for everyone to stay within the river?"
"Mr. Jiang said that his home is in Zhonghai. When he gets old, he always misses the locust tree in front of his house and the well in the ancestral hall."
Black Snake said politely: "Besides, he fell down in Zhonghai. If he doesn't come back and stand up straight, he will regret it until he dies."
"As for Song Hongyan's attack, it was just an impulse and will never happen again."
She made a guarantee: "I hope Mr. Han will give me a chance."
Ye Fan secretly laughed in his heart. This woman probably didn't know that White Snake failed to attack Huang Zhendong, otherwise she wouldn't have opened her eyes and lied.
"Do you think I'm an old fool?"
Han Nanhua sneered: "I still don't know what kind of virtue Jiang Hualong has? What kind of feelings does he really have? He would not have done all the bad things in the first place."
"Mr. Han, people will change."
Black Snake put on a sincere look: "Moreover, Mr. Jiang is seriously ill now and has long since lost his ambition. He really just wants to spend the rest of his life in Zhonghai."
Lin Furong curled her lips, a bunch of losers, come back as soon as they want, and they are asking for help.
"Jiang Hualong is a mad dog."
Han Nanhua sneered: "If you don't give him a chance, he will keep his tail between his legs. If you give him a chance, he will bite people to death."
"Besides, even if I show my favor, he won't be able to return to Zhonghai."
"Du Tianhu and Lao Qian will never allow him to appear."
He gave his decision: "You should advise him to give up and enjoy his remaining years abroad."
Black Snake smiled helplessly: "Mr. Han..."
"Stop talking, my attitude is clear."
Han Nanhua interrupted Black Snake: "Jue Wen is dead. Three days later, I will ask Ha Chi to lead people to take over the batch of rivers, including the Han family's lost goods."
"You have three days to leave there. If you don't leave within the time limit, I will destroy you."
He gave an ultimatum: "Don't take my words as a joke. You should know my relationship with Chai Ba."
Black Snake's face changed slightly, his eyes filled with anger, but he still said respectfully: "Understood."
"As long as you know."
Han Nanhua put his hands behind his back: "Also, get out of Zhonghai before dawn, or you will never leave."
"You must do what Mr. Han said."
Black Snake's eyelids twitched, his fists clenched slightly, and finally he bowed and said with a smile:
"Mr. Han, although the negotiations cannot be concluded tonight, please accept these four gifts."
"Mr. Jiang told me that these things are meaningless to him, but they are priceless treasures in Mr. Han's hands."
"And I'm deeply sorry about Jue Wen. This can be considered a little compensation."
She implored Han Nanhua to accept four rare treasures.
At the same time, she glanced at Ye Fan from the corner of her eye. This kid came over at some point and was touching the four treasures one by one with his hands.
Han Nanhua looked hesitant and did not leave as decisively as before. He stared directly at the four treasures.
To him, one billion or eighty million is just a small amount of money, but the four treasures were so tempting that they hit his weak spot.
"Okay, this thing should be regarded as your compensation to Jue Wen."
Han Nanhua finally made a decision: "Han Yue, take the things and send one billion to Jue Wen's family."
Han Yue nodded: "Understood."
"Wait!"
Just when Han Yue was about to ask someone to put it away, Ye Fan, who had been silent, shouted:
