"By the way, Master Si, there’s one more person we didn’t find!" Jue Qing remembered the only person who slipped through the net.
"Who?" Han Si Hai asked, slightly furrowing his brow.
"A woman named Purple Clothes. We don’t know much about her background. According to the intelligence address, she lives in the countryside, but we just couldn’t find her!"
"Purple Clothes? There doesn’t seem to be such a person in Wancheng?" Han Si Hai asked with confusion.
"Master Si, she might be a powerful outsider who came here to grab a piece of the pie after seeing Kangyu Foot Bath City as a fat piece of meat. It’s possible!" Jue Qing said.
Han Si Hai nodded. Despite his rough and restless exterior, he is the steward of the leading family and has experienced many things. His mind moves faster than others, so he naturally knows that this woman named Purple Clothes is definitely not to be underestimated. Since we know so little about her, with the enemy in the dark and us in the open, Han Si Hai has to act cautiously!
"Let’s set this Purple Clothes aside for now. I estimate she won’t cause us much trouble. Right now, we need to focus on Chen Shiwei and Lin Mu. Those two are our strongest opponents!" Han Si Hai said.
"So, Master Si, how do you plan to deal with them?" Jue Qing asked.
"Let’s start with the easy one. We’ll meet with Chen Shiwei first. As for Lin Mu, I have my own way to deal with him!" Han Si Hai said with a sinister expression.
"Yes, let’s go now, time is of the essence. We should finish with Chen Shiwei before dealing with the troublesome Lin Mu, which will also give us more time!" Han Si Hai said.
Immediately, Han Si Hai, along with the Poisonous Snake Four Brothers, left the main door, got into the Mercedes parked outside, and headed directly to the West City Chen Family.
After about ten minutes, Han Si Hai’s car stopped at the gate of the Chen Family. Inside, Chen Shiwei was holding a cigar and reading a newspaper when Aunt Wu came in after knocking on the door.
"Aunt Wu, what’s up?" Chen Shiwei slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.
"Young Master, Han Si Hai and his group are here!"
"Oh, Han Si Hai?" Chen Shiwei couldn’t quite believe it. "What are they here for?"
"Well, you know, night owls don’t come without a reason. I wonder if it has something to do with Kangyu Foot Bath City?" Aunt Wu replied. "However, from Han Si Hai’s attitude, he seems quite amiable, doesn’t seem to have bad intentions!"
Chen Shiwei frowned, then his eyes glittered, and the corners of his mouth curled into a slight smile, "At this time? Interesting, seems like my choice to wait and watch the drama was a wise one."
"Young Master, what do you mean by this?" Aunt Wu asked, puzzled.
"Hehe, someone’s come to give us money. Let’s go out and greet them." Chen Shiwei stood up to go, with Aunt Wu following closely behind to greet the visitors.
"Ah, Master Si, what an honor to have you visit, my apologies for not welcoming you sooner." Chen Shiwei said, smiling as he approached.
"Oh, no need to be so formal, Young Master Chen. I was worried about disturbing your rest by visiting so late!" Han Si Hai shifted from his usual wild tone and patted Chen Shiwei on the shoulder with a smile.
"Master Si, what are you talking about? If you want to visit, you’re welcome anytime, even in the middle of the night!" Chen Shiwei replied with a laugh.
"Haha, with your words, I feel much relieved."
"Master Si, come inside. I just brewed a pot of good tea. As the saying goes, chance favors the prepared mind, let’s go in and enjoy it together!"
"Haha, good then, I will gladly enjoy a taste of Young Master Chen’s tea!"
Inside, Chen Shiwei poured a cup of tea for Han Si Hai, "Master Si, how’s the taste?"
People like Han Si Hai with a temper don’t really know how to appreciate tea. For him, it’s about whether it tastes good or not. The idea of tea appreciation was just Han Si Hai making it up!
"Hmm, not bad at all. Young Master’s tea skills are truly excellent, tastes really good." Han Si Hai laughed heartily.
"Master Si, you flatter me. I have more here, I’ll give you a few packs!"
"In that case, I won’t hold back!"
Chen Shiwei glanced at Han Si Hai, thinking to himself, don’t be polite, if you are polite, how am I supposed to feel like gouging you later!
"Hehe, Master Si, no need for formalities, we’re all friends here!"
"I like what you said, Young Master. To be honest, the reason I came tonight is to discuss something with you. I hope you can show me some respect!"
After some initial pleasantries, they were going to get to the point. Chen Shiwei acted clueless,
"Oh? Whatever Master Si has to say, feel free to discuss it. We’re friends, as long as it’s within my power, I won’t refuse!"
Han Si Hai glanced at Chen Shiwei, snorting secretly. A fool wouldn’t believe what Chen Shiwei just said, he’s like a slick-tongued snake, honey-tongued but with a sword under his sleeve.
"Young Master, with your words, I feel assured. To be frank, the main reason I’m here is because of Kangyu Foot Bath City. I’ve been eyeing that location for a long time and already have a business plan. So, with this opportunity, I want to take Kangyu down!" Han Si Hai said seriously.
"Hehe, with your financial strength, Master Si stands out in Wancheng. If you really want it, who else has the qualifications to compete with you?" Chen Shiwei said humbly with a smile.
"Young Master, you speak too highly of me. I’m aware that you are also a prominent figure in Wancheng, others I’m not concerned about, but I do care about you. I heard you wanted in as well?" Han Si Hai asked, seemingly innocent.
"Heh, Master Si, indeed there’s such a thing. Such a big piece of meat, not just me, everyone in Wancheng has their eyes on it!"
"Indeed, that’s exactly why I’m visiting tonight, hoping you could let me have this precious spot? What do you say?" Han Si Hai asked, staring at Chen Shiwei’s face.
"Let you have it?" Chen Shiwei frowned.
"Hehe, of course, it wouldn’t be for free, which would make me feel bad. I’ll give you a million as a reward, just as a token of gratitude. How about that?"
"Hehe, a million? To be honest, I’m also determined to get it. Everyone wants this treasure." Chen Shiwei said with a smile, subtly telling Han Si Hai that a million is too little, given the profits of Kangyu Foot Bath City, and he also wants Kangyu.
In reality, Chen Shiwei was just participating for fun, never intending to bid higher to own the bathhouse. Not to mention Han Si Hai, there’s Lin Mu to consider. To take it from him would be like pulling teeth from a tiger!
Han Si Hai glanced at Chen Shiwei, having cursed Chen’s ancestors in his heart countless times. This brute was clearly trying to exploit the situation, but given the circumstances, there was no better plan.
"Since that’s the case, I’ll be straightforward, five million, will that be enough?" Han Si Hai gritted his teeth and held up five fingers.
