Not only had her plan failed, but what was more troubleso was that the Situ Family had sided with Long Xiaoshan.
As a top-tier family of Xichuan Province,
they also had a geographical advantage.
Even though the Guu Family and the Li Family were stronger than the Situ Family, they couldn’t co to this inland area to contend with them.
After all, a powerful dragon could not suppress the local snake.
With the Situ Family in place,
many of her unconventional thods had beco unusable.
The hopes of getting Longyang Group back under control had beco very slim.
Thinking of this, Li Jialin felt a tightness in her chest.
...
In the end, she had inadvertently helped this little farr to land a severe blow, and her carefully laid plans had co to nothing.
She really couldn’t understand why the Situ Family had changed sides at the last minute.
Situ Mingde’s respect for Long Xiaoshan was so great that he even broke his own son’s legs for him.
It was clear that she might have underestimated Long Xiaoshan.
This small-ti farr seed to have cards up his sleeve that she couldn’t even imagine.
However, Li Jialin was no ordinary person.
Though she felt extrely frustrated, she didn’t panic.
Besides Plan A, she also had Plan B.
As a top-notch business elite, she never put all her eggs in one basket.
Every ti she made plans, she always left herself an out so that she wouldn’t lose everything.
She held 31% of the shares in her hands, of which 26% were acquired through purchasing land shares.
Originally, the lands of Longyang Village villagers were priced at a total of 30% shares, so now she essentially owned nearly ninety percent of the village’s land.
This land was much larger than Long Xiaoshan’s farm.
At the sa ti, the patent for the beautifying dicinal al that Long Xiaoshan had given her had also been preemptively registered by her.
Holding the patent and the land, she could produce her own raw materials.
Even if she went independent and started her own business, it would be more than enough.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Li Jialin’s face.
At most, she would lose Long Xiaoshan’s farm and a small amount of villager land that she hadn’t managed to acquire.
It was a pity, indeed, but it was not crucial to the overall situation.
Clap, clap!
She clapped her hands lightly.
Li Jialin said with a faint smile, “Long Xiaoshan, I admit that I underestimated you.
I’ve lost this round.
Since that’s the case, we don’t need to continue our cooperation.
I will withdraw my shares from Longyang Group.
Since the 26% I acquired are land shares, most of the village land now belongs to .
As for the remaining 5% of the shares, I’ll withdraw them at the original investnt value.
Cousin, are you interested in withdrawing your investnt to establish a new company with ?”
Gu Jingheng had no other choice now.
He knew he had completely offended Long Xiaoshan.
Staying on in Longyang Company was aningless now.
Since Li Jialin held a large amount of land and the dicinal al patent, it was clear that she could start anew.
He nodded decisively, “Alright, I will also withdraw my investnt.”
Long Xiaoshan laughed heartily and said, “Li Jialin, you really have quite the plan, preparing to establish a new company right under my nose, using my dicinal al patent to make a fortune.
To be honest, it’s a really good idea; I can’t help but admire your brazen shalessness.”
Li Jialin’s expression remained unchanged as she calmly said, “Chairman Long, business is like a battlefield, we’re all just after profits.
Insulting people doesn’t achieve anything.
In fact, we could still collaborate.
My dicinal al Company needs a large amount of raw materials, and we could purchase the fruits and vegetables produced by your farm, right?”
Long Xiaoshan let out a light sigh, “Indeed, if you don’t purchase my fruits and vegetables, what else would you use to make dicinal als?”
“What do you an?”
Li Jialin’s brow furrowed slightly as she felt there was more to Long Xiaoshan’s words.
She had ntioned purchasing Long Xiaoshan’s fruits and vegetables only to provoke him and had no actual intention of buying them; surely Long Xiaoshan wouldn’t sell to her anyway.
After all, she had secured a large amount of land in the village, far surpassing the area of Long Xiaoshan’s farm, and that would be sufficient to produce the raw materials she needed.
Long Xiaoshan said, “I forgot to tell you that the reason why the village land can produce these health-preserving fruits and vegetables isn’t due to the soil itself.
It’s because I periodically irrigate the land with a ‘Nutrient Solution’ that enables the production of healthful fruits and vegetables.
If the land is not irrigated with the ‘Nutrient Solution’ after a certain period, it loses its effect, and the resultant produce is just ordinary fruits and vegetables.”
“What?”
Li Jialin’s face changed drastically as she said, “You, you lied to !”
Long Xiaoshan smiled faintly, “Li Jialin, do you really think I need to lie to you?
You might as well ask the villagers what the fruits and vegetables were like before, and whether it was after the establishnt of Longyang Company that the land was modified to produce health-preserving fruits and vegetables.”
“Amy, now that he ntions it, I rember my first visit here.
There was only the Xishan farm at the ti, and the village was clearly very poor.
Only his farm could produce health-preserving fruits and vegetables, while the other lands were useless.
It was only after the group company was established that they could produce health-preserving fruits and vegetables.” Gu Jingheng suddenly recalled, his face slightly changing as he reminded Li Jialin.
Li Jialin’s face turned exceedingly grim.
If what Long Xiaoshan said was true, then the land she had acquired for billions in funds was nothing but wasteland.
The loss of funds was secondary.
Most importantly, without land capable of producing health-preserving fruits and vegetables, she wouldn’t be able to produce dicinal als.
She had already experinted and found that the dicinal als made with fruits and vegetables from other places, apart from those produced here by Long Xiaoshan, had no effect at all and were just ordinary dishes.
Without the raw materials, her patent for the dicinal al was nothing but a worthless piece of paper.
Her ambitions for the colossal dicinal al industry that could allow her to rebuild another Li Family—all ended up in vain.
That feeling of watching success slip into despair right before her eyes.
Was simply maddening.
Li Jialin clenched her fists hard, her nails almost digging into her flesh.
She could not believe she was so thoroughly defeated by this simple farr.
She could not accept it; as a top financial elite who graduated from Columbia University and climbed to the position of regional head in a multinational corporation.
The beloved daughter of the Hong Kong Li Family, how could she possibly lose to a re farr?
No, she had not entirely lost yet.
Li Jialin took several deep breaths to steady her complexion, and said, “Chairman Long, I still have your patent, and as you’ve seen, the profits from the dicinal als are considerable.
In the future, it will be easy to achieve tens of billions in net profit annually.
I am now establishing an independent dicinal al Company.
As long as you supply the raw materials to , I can offer you 49% of the shares in my dicinal al Company.
What do you think?”
Long Xiaoshan looked at Li Jialin as if she were a fool and scoffed, “Li Jialin, do you think that’s possible?”
“Why not?
We are all in business to seek profits.
I know you must feel upset about my previous sches against you, and that’s all perfectly normal.
But don’t forget, I hold the dicinal al patent, and only through collaboration can we both win.
Tens or hundreds of billions in profit a year, Chairman Long, in the face of such vast interests, what are small grievances worth?
Great heroes are the ones who overlook trivial matters to achieve great things.
Chairman Long, achieving so much at such a young age, I presu you are not soone who gets caught up in petty details and can see the bigger picture.”
Li Jialin’s tone was filled with a compelling persuasive power, composed and articulate, exhibiting the deanor of a top business elite.
