Chapter 152: Land Immortal!

If things continue as they are, when the bonds mature, Fanghuan Investment can also legitimately grab the knife and fork and participate in the feast of dividing up the Kintetsu Group.
“So, rather than engaging in a time-consuming, laborious, and potentially mutually destructive ‘feast-grabbing war’ with them later, why not…
buy their portion of the ‘food vouchers’ now, ensuring that we can monopolize this feast and eat with more peace of mind?”
Qin Han instantly understood Secretary Wu’s implied meaning.
“Yes, Chairman Qin! With the strength and size of our Jiangjin Group, as long as we can obtain all the bonds,
we are absolutely confident that we can squeeze every last drop out of the Kintetsu Group, leaving it completely clean!”
“But that means we have to shell out a full 30 billion to buy the bonds held by Su Hao!”
The thought of that number made Qin Han’s heart ache as if it had been stabbed.
However, there's no doubt that in this perfect moment, with all external obstacles cleared and everything at their disposal,
if one could seize control of all the bonds and then ruthlessly dissect and devour the Kintetsu Group,
that would undoubtedly be the most satisfying, thorough, and profitable approach.
Qin Han slowly closed his eyes, his mind in turmoil.
The image of Su Hao's young yet unfathomable face resurfaced in his mind.
If, if all of this—this unbelievable reversal of fortune, this sudden "Paradise Papers" scandal, and the chain reaction it triggered—was all within Su Hao's calculations…
That kid is terrifying!
He's not just a business prodigy!
He's practically a celestial being, a master strategist!
What the hell is the point of even trying?!
How incredibly foolish of him must he have been to even consider fighting against such a near-godlike opponent?
This kind of person!
He's only fit to be a friend, never an enemy!
Offending him, who knows what unimaginable traps he'll set for you!
Thinking this, a fine layer of cold sweat broke out on Qin Han's back.
Finally, he sighed deeply, a complex, even bitter smile appearing on his face, and slowly said:
"Fine! Three hundred billion it is, give it to him!"
Just as Secretary Wu had analyzed, buying up the bonds held by Su Hao and his group, and completely controlling the life and death of the "Kintetsu Group," was indeed the best option at the moment.
Although spending these three hundred billion was painful, both physically and mentally, on second thought, if he could squeeze more profits out of the Kintetsu Group to make up for the loss, or even make a fortune, it would be worth it!
"Besides, I can also do Su Hao a favor; who knows, it might come in handy in the future."
Qin Han silently calculated in his mind.
Through today's incident, he finally understood that with an unfathomable genius like Su Hao, it was best to maintain a friendly cooperative relationship and make money peacefully.
Of course, being able to latch onto him and get rich together would be ideal!
"Alright, I'll speak to Su Hao about this personally. You guys prepare the follow-up plan first, make sure..."
Qin Han was about to arrange the follow-up matters when he suddenly felt a burning gaze on his back, making his spine tingle.
He turned around in confusion.
He saw Secretary Wu standing not far behind him, looking uneasy, constipated, his eyes darting around.
What's wrong with this kid today?
Did he take the wrong medicine?
Why is he looking at me like that?
Qin Han was wondering what was going on when a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He suddenly remembered a "promise" he and Secretary Wu had made a few days ago.
A promise about "slaps"—
If he really agreed to Su Hao's double price, he'd have Secretary Wu slap him twice to wake him up!
"Hehe!" Chairman Qin couldn't help but chuckle. He beckoned to Secretary Wu and asked,
"Secretary Wu, don't even mention you, even I want to slap myself twice.
Given the current situation, why don't you... fulfill your promise?"
"Huh?!" Secretary Wu trembled at his words, shaking her head violently:
"No, no, no! Chairman Qin! Absolutely not! I wouldn't dare even if you gave me a hundred lives!!"
Qin Han laughed heartily, waving his hand: "Alright, alright, just kidding!"
However, as he laughed, he suddenly felt something was amiss.
Strange... He clearly hadn't been slapped by that kid, so why...
His cheek felt burning hot, like he'd been slapped hard, and it hurt terribly.
Tsk, weird!

"Hahaha, Brother Su, this world is truly wondrous. After all the twists and turns, it finally came to your liking!"
Qin Han, his previous angry outburst gone, was now beaming, personally filling Su Hao's glass to the brim.
Their manner was as if they were long-lost sworn brothers, hardly resembling the opponent who had just "snatched" 30 billion from his pocket.
"First 20 billion, and now 30 billion! A full 50 billion!
To think you, Su Hao, could rake in so much money from our Jiangjin Group's coffers, you're absolutely the first!"
Qin Han clicked his tongue, his tone tinged with a hint of pain, but mostly with admiration.
Su Hao chuckled, picked up his glass, and lightly clinked it against Qin Han's:
"If you put it that way, Mr. Qin, I sound like a thief taking advantage of someone's misfortune."
His smile, seemingly harmless, combined with his recent successful "robbery," exuded a smug, almost arrogant, Versailles-like aura.
"More than just taking advantage of someone's misfortune! From Jiang Jin's perspective, you're a brazen highway robber!
No, wait, you're way more sophisticated than a bandit!
You're a crack sniper, a master of hitting the bullseye, a 'fat sheep' target!
One shot wiped out half my territory!"
Qin Han complained, but his face beamed as if he'd won millions, showing no sign of distress.
Beside him, Huang Fengwen timely refilled Qin Han's glass, chuckling as he smoothed things over:
"Mr. Qin, you're joking. You didn't lose out at all on this deal."
"Leaving aside the distant past, just look at 'Changqing Tianxi,' oh no, it's now called 'Jiangjin Tianxi.' In the long run, it's incredibly profitable!
Plus, they split up the 'Kintetsu Group' properly—selling what needed to be sold, and swallowing what needed to be swallowed—making a fortune from all sides!"
"That's why I've shamelessly come running here again!"
Qin Han picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp.
"Last time, Brother Su, you offered 30 billion, and I was so angry I almost flipped the table!
Thinking about it now, it's really…sigh, it's embarrassing to even say it, I'm slapping myself in the face!"
Huang Fengwen quickly chimed in:
"Chairman Qin, please don't say that! If I were you, I would have slammed the table and left too! This kid can be quite infuriating sometimes!"
This sounded like he was supporting Su Hao, but it was actually flattering him.
