Chapter 444 - 444: He is the Behind-the-Scenes Boss!
"Hai Mei, are you joking?"
Uncle Dong Shufeng said gloomily, "Everyone knows he is a good-for-nothing who has come knocking at our door, and he's even married. If you get together with him, let's not even mention what Red Dragon Villa's reaction might be; even without Red Dragon Villa, the Dong Family cannot afford to lose face like that!"
"Exactly!"
Mr. Dong chimed in, "Hai Mei, I know you have reservations about Red Dragon Villa, but can't you consider the bigger picture? Marrying into Red Dragon Villa not only gives our Dong Family a powerful backer, but Red Dragon Villa has also agreed to provide us with higher-level secret manuals, Elixirs, and so on as a dowry, making our Dong Family the number one family in Hanjiang Province soon!"
"I think everyone is making sense."
Second Young Master Dong, leaning on a cane, came over and said, "Hai Mei, one must not be too selfish. The family has placed you on a pedestal, making you the head of the Dong Family, with boundless glory. Now it's time to repay the family. You can't forsake the family's interests for your own sake!"
"Right, right, Second Young Master speaks wisely!"
Everyone echoed one after another.
Dong Haimei felt a chill in her heart.
All they cared about was interests, not herself.
At this moment.
Qin Feng suddenly laughed on the side: "Hehehe..."
"What are you laughing at?" Uncle Dong Shufeng frowned and asked.
"Nothing, I just remembered a fable, The Farmer and the Snake."
Qin Feng grinned and continued, "Of course, it might not be entirely accurate, but you all are so much like that snake. It's obviously Miss Dong's outstanding business acumen and her military general's cultivation that have secured Dong Family's position as number one in Han City, making everyone earn a fortune. Now you're saying that it's you who put her in this position, and she should be grateful to you. Isn't that funny?"
"You..."
Dong Shufeng's face turned chilly, but before he could speak, Qin Feng went on, "Also, you keep telling Miss Dong not to be too selfish. Have a heart-to-heart with yourselves, is she the selfish one, or are you?"
"..."
Everyone's faces turned ashen with embarrassment.
Second Young Master Dong couldn't keep his composure and angrily said, "Base person speaks nonsense. Get out!!"
"Second Young Master!"
Dong Haimei hurriedly spoke up, "We can't drive him away, he is helping us!"
"Helping us? Do we need help?"
Uncle Dong Shufeng said disdainfully.
Dong Haimei continued, "Uncle, have you not seen clearly yet? Red Dragon Villa has offered such a significant dowry and insists on marrying me. It seems like the Dong Family has gained a powerful backer, but have you investigated Red Dragon Villa?"
"Of course we have! Red Dragon Villa is very famous in the Changbai Mountain region, with five Grandmasters! Where else can you find such strength?" Uncle Dong Shufeng said.
Hearing about five Grandmasters,
Others couldn't help but get excited again.
Five Grandmasters!
With so many Grandmasters as a backer, what does the Dong Family have to fear?
Dong Haimei, somewhat helpless, continued, "Then have you investigated the situation of Red Dragon Villa in Changbai Mountain? They are notorious for burning, killing, and looting; many nefarious events in the Hidden World are related to them. Can the Dong Family really want such a backer? It's very likely to lead to self-destruction!"
"That... Hidden World families, aren't they all like that? They don't have laws and regulations like us, it's quite normal!" Dong Shufeng waved his hand.
"Right, right, it's normal in the Hidden World; you fight me, I fight you, but as long as one's strength is strong, that's all that matters! Red Dragon Villa is so formidable, perhaps it will develop even better in the future, and no one would dare to provoke us!" others said.
"..."
Seeing this, Dong Haimei's heart completely cooled.
They were already intoxicated by interests, having lost their reasoning.
There's simply no way to explain it to them.
Let's not even talk about the marriage for now.
Red Dragon Villa itself can't be relied on as a support, it has even been wanted by the Dragon Group.
This would only harm the Dong family!
"Anyway, I won't agree!"
Dong Haimei continued.
"You have to agree, even if you don't want to, you don't have a choice!"
Second Young Master Dong said sternly.
Seeing Second Young Master angry, Lоvе this stоry? Shоw yоur suppоrt оn М9VLЕМРYR.
No one else dared to speak further.
Mr. Dong then persuaded: "Haimei, let's not talk about the good or bad that Red Dragon Villa brings us, think about it, if we refuse Red Dragon Villa, can our Dong family still survive? It's very possible that we could be destroyed overnight!"
"Qin Feng can help us!"
Dong Haimei said.
Everyone looked at Qin Feng again, shaking their heads in disdain.
Seeing this, Dong Haimei glanced at Qin Feng as if asking whether she could reveal his true identity.
Qin Feng nodded.
Dong Haimei then addressed Mr. Dong and the elders: "Does everyone know about the recently prominent Lake City Fengyun Group?"
"Of course we know!"
Uncle Dong Shufeng said enviously, "I reckon that Fengyun Group is developing so rapidly because they have the backing of the Hidden World. Within such a short period of time, they have already become one of the biggest powers in Hanjiang Province."
"A while ago, the Jianglong Group of Jiang City's Long Family had 51% of its shares bought by Fengyun Group, and now Long Family is at the beck and call of Fengyun Group," said the fourth uncle.
Mr. Dong also added: "Haimei, you see, this is the advantage of having a Hidden World background. Once you marry into Red Dragon Villa, our Dong family can develop just as quickly!"
Qin Feng then smiled and said, "Whether a group develops well or not doesn't depend on how deep their background is, but on talent! The rise of Fengyun Group is due to talents like Wei Yunxiang, Jiang Zhongtian, Zheng Weiwei, Feng Jianguo, etc."
"If I may speak frankly, from what I know of the Dong family members, it seems that apart from Miss Dong, everyone else is useless. Even the blood and dignity that should be present in a Martial Arts Family are gradually being lost."
"So, even with the same resources, it's not certain that the Dong family could rise."
After he finished speaking,
Everyone was furiously outraged.
Uncle Dong Shufeng was even more furious, saying: "You, a worthless son-in-law, dare to laugh at us? What gives you the right!"
Before Qin Feng could speak,
Dong Haimei interjected: "He is the hidden boss behind Fengyun Group."
"What?!"
The crowd exclaimed, their eyes widening in astonishment.
"That's impossible!"
"It absolutely can't be! The boss behind Fengyun Group must be a supremely talented and extraordinary genius, otherwise how could he have the boldness to make the group rise so swiftly!"
"That's right, I also heard that Fengyun Group recently spent a hundred billion to secure the project in Yanjing Xishan Taihu; we couldn't come up with that much money all at once!"
"And the Mu Family from Southwest, a prominent Traditional Chinese Medicine family, was also acquired by Fengyun Group, there's no way he could have such financial power!"
"..."
Everyone was in doubt.
Seeing this, Dong Haimei felt very helpless and said, "It's true, he really is the behind-the-scenes boss of Fengyun Group, which is why I brought him here, to deal with Red Dragon Villa, he's here to help us."
