Chapter 68: Encounter a Stronger Opponent
Although the prodigal son is updated twice a day, everyone can see that each update of the prodigal son is basically over 2,000 words. Compared to some new books, this one update is equivalent to two or three updates from others. As a result, the prodigal son's daily update volume is not small.
I don't want to update every time with only a few hundred words, even when I see a book with over 40,000 words that has already been updated 101 chapters. As you can imagine, each of his updates is only about 400 words. I believe you wouldn't be satisfied with reading like this either. For this reason, I want to say that actually, my minimum daily update of two chapters is already a considerable amount of words. If the collection and reward are in place, I can add more updates, and the additional chapter will be the same as the normal chapter, also with over 2,000 words.
The rogue has worked hard and looks forward to everyone's support.

"Ah." Feng Si Zhe waved his hand, not letting Duan Yun Peng reveal his own identity. In fact, this wasn't because he was being low-key, but rather he didn't want to stir up unnecessary trouble. Moreover, the Zhao family's status wasn't particularly prominent in Kyoto, and could only be considered a third or fourth-rate family at best. If he were to mention his own grandfather out of nowhere, it would give people reason to think that he was relying on his connections. For this reason, he didn't want Duan Yun Peng to reveal his identity. Besides, he wanted others to take him seriously based on his own abilities, rather than relying on his background or status.
Feng Sizhe didn't let Duan Yunpeng speak, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything. Now he is obedient to Feng Sizhe's words, the God of Wealth has spoken, and he doesn't dare not listen.
Feng Siche just waved his hand, and Duan Yunpeng immediately shut up. The intensity of this move was so astonishing that the others were shocked. They wouldn't be unaware of the strength and background of the Duan family, but Feng Siche's simple wave of his hand had made him become so obedient. It was really an unthinkable thing. Even among the big families in Kyoto, there hadn't been any mention of a powerful Feng surname, nor did they seem to have any particularly influential people with the surname Feng in local forces. What was going on here?
Seeing everyone's puzzled gaze, even Qin Tian was looking at him with a confused and suspicious look, Feng Si Zhe knew he had to say something. His intention was to convince these people without bringing up his grandfather, rather than relying on his identity or background to make a point, because in the eyes of these people, his grandfather's name alone was not enough to impress them.
"Ah, it's Guo Shao, don't worry, I'll give you an explanation. Since I'm here today at Duan Shao's invitation, I'll definitely provide a solution for everyone. I also know that everyone is here to hear the person behind Duan Shao's back, so if it's about finding someone to make decisions, can I say a few words first? Hehe, if what I say isn't right, you can just ask me to leave, how about that?" Feng Si Zhe's position was quite low-key, but since you're looking for someone to make decisions, why not listen to me for a bit, it won't take up too much time."
"Haha, since you're a friend of Duan Shao's, that means you have some status too. Alright, if you insist on speaking, we'll listen. But let me warn you upfront, everyone here has a certain status, so your suggestions should match ours. If the ideas you come up with can only make a little money, then I think it's better not to mention them." Guo Zhi said with a smile and a hint of arrogance.
Guo Zhi had already taken the attitude of treating a dead horse as if it were alive, and he also wanted to hear what kind of ability Duan Yunpeng, this extremely capable person, actually had. It was just that in order not to let Feng Sicheng talk nonsense too much, he specially pointed out that if there was some small business opportunity, don't mention it, as people who make a little money are not interesting.
"Haha, okay, Guo Shao is a straightforward person who likes to put things on the table. I like this kind of personality. But what I don't know is how much money does Guo Shao think is considered a big deal? You should also say it out loud, at least I'll have an idea in my mind, otherwise, if we accidentally underestimate you guys later, won't you be saying again that my suggestion doesn't match your thoughts and status?" Feng Si Zhe asked with a smiling face.
Actually, Feng Sicheng had already figured out a general idea. Duan Yunpeng didn't need to say anything, he was someone who trusted himself completely. As for Guo Zhi, his personality was a bit arrogant and straightforward, which might make people feel uncomfortable at first, but once you could control him, it would be much easier to deal with him later on. Compared to Guo Zhi, Zu Jie and Wang Run were calm and quiet, not saying a word, just watching Guo Zhi perform and take the lead. On the surface, they seemed to be just watching the excitement, but in reality, they were also analyzing, especially Zu Jie, who understood his own strengths and weaknesses. Last time, when he advised Duan Yunpeng on oil futures trading, he was present but didn't propose joining in, but now he appeared again in this gathering, which already showed that he trusted himself too, otherwise, he wouldn't have shown up twice, and it could be seen that this time he was also preparing to participate and take action.
This is Yang Keshuang, this kid is obviously a two-faced person in society. When he speaks, he always maintains an extremely attentive listening posture, but in fact, it's all for the sake of Duan Yunpeng, because he is the big boss of this company. Yang Keshuang also knows that company matters need to be decided by Duan Yunpeng, and he is just a puppet and executor. As long as he respects Duan Yunpeng's decisions, he will have good days ahead. Apparently, his attentive listening posture is also for giving face to Duan Yunpeng.
In the end, only Qin Tian was left. He had always been very low-key, sitting there, and only when Duan Yunpeng said that if Guo Zhi dared to call someone to catch Feng Shao, he would not be able to eat or walk away, did his eyebrows furrow slightly. Although this movement was very small, it was still discovered by Feng Sicheng, who had been closely paying attention to him. From this point on, it can be seen that this person is extremely calculating. Don't look at how he never speaks, in fact, his heart is surging with emotions. Every word spoken by Feng Sicheng was probably listened to very carefully by him.
Having seen the character of these people, Feng Sizi decided to first bring down Guo Zhi's arrogance. Only by defeating this pawn could he have a deterrent effect on others. That way, Feng Sizi would ask how much money Guo Zhi's business was worth.
"Hmm? Well, if we add up what my brothers and I have, it's not too shabby, a few hundred million is still a decent amount, heh. How about that, do you think this is a lot or a little?" Guo Zhi thought for a moment before giving Feng Si Zhe an answer, but the answer was still somewhat forced. In '91, 100 million was already a huge sum of money, and Guo Zhi only said it like that to save face. He didn't want to be looked down on by Feng Si Zhe before he even had a chance to do anything, or else his own face would really lose big time.
"Oh, 100 million!" Feng Si Zhe's eyebrows furrowed intentionally. This movement was seen by Guo Zhi, who couldn't help but chuckle, thinking to himself, "How about that, did I scare you?" But he still spoke kindly, saying, "What's wrong, is it too much?" After saying this, he also threw a glance at Wang Run, Zu Jie, and Qin Tian, implying that he was quite impressive, able to intimidate Feng Si Zhe with just one sentence.
It's not that Guo Zile didn't expect it, but with one sentence from Feng Siche, his face suddenly turned green. He was already quite intimidating when he said those words himself, but who would have thought that Feng Siche's next sentence would be a hundred times more powerful than his own?
