"Dong Xu is very proud. Even Mr. Dong came to make peace with you."

Ye Fang walked into the living room and said to Xu Shixun. Xu Shixun's expression softened slightly and he smiled and said, "Mr. Dong... also doesn't want to see financial instability in Hong Kong. We should understand his position."

A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of Ye Fang's mouth, and the words Mr. Dong told him in the car came to mind: "If you, the old B-den of the Xu family, beat me to death, I will support you!"

Later, Ye Fang learned that Xu Shixun had voted against the election during the election. Mr. Dong had always kept this in mind, until this time, Ye Fang used Ye Fang's hands to deal with Xu Shixun and rip off the Xu family. Mr. Dong from the four major families has already said hello. No matter what happens to the Xu family in the future, they will not help. Ye Fang can rest assured to deal with the Xu family.

"Okay, I can withdraw. But I have two conditions." Ye Fang stretched out two fingers to Xu Shixun.

"You said it." Xu Shixun secretly rejoiced, knowing that Ye Fang agreed to reconcile because of Mr. Dong's intervention.

"First, let Xu Jinheng leave Hong Kong for at least five years. Anyway, I don't want to see him here again. You also tell him that he'd better keep to himself in the future, otherwise I won't be so polite next time. In addition, you'd better give him less pocket money. , he likes to cause trouble when he has more money."

"Okay, I agree!" Xu Shixun nodded heavily after thinking for a while.

"Second, I will retain 5.00% of the shares of Xu's company, and you will give Zhongrui Capital a board seat. And the 100 billion I invested in China Construction Enterprise Group must be withdrawn safely and without loss!"

"What?! You're talking like a lion!" Xu Shixun carefully considered the second condition put forward by Ye Fang. Not only must he withdraw the 100 billion of funds intact, but he must also retain a board seat for Zhongrui Capital. This made it clear that the 5.00 % of the shares were given to Ye Fang for free, which was equivalent to an open robbery. Xu Shixun estimated that he would lose nearly 50 billion Hong Kong dollars, and this did not include the funds needed to maintain the high position of China Construction Enterprise Group.

"Why, you don't want to?" Ye Fang asked with a smile.

"Okay, I agree!" Xu Shixun said through gritted teeth, and then continued, "But it will take time for me to raise funds. I hope that the stock price of China Construction Enterprise Group will remain stable during this period."

"That's no problem!" Ye Fang readily agreed.

"I will ask someone to prepare the documents. You can send someone to sign on Monday." Xu Shixun said.

"Okay." Ye Fang agreed, and then asked Lu Jiuge to see off the guests.

At this time, Lu Jiaming walked to Ye Fang from other rooms and said, "The Xu family may be in trouble this time."

"If you don't give him a longer memory, I always think that no one can defeat him! After signing the documents, watch Xu Jinheng leave the country. I don't want to see this scumbag again." Ye Fang said coldly.

"Yes, boss!" Lu Jiaming nodded in agreement.

"Do you know why I make a fuss about beating the Xu family? Do you think I'm really just trying to vent my anger?" Ye Fang asked with a smile.

"Isn't it?" Lu Jiaming now knew that Ye Fang had other motives for beating the Xu family.

"Of course not. You have to show the monkey when you kill the chicken. This will allow Zhongrui Capital to have a comfortable development space in the land of Liangjiang in the future. At least it will not make Zhongrui Capital a target of being manipulated at will. This will happen in the next ten years. Very important." Ye Fang said.

Although Lu Jiaming is not yet very clear about Ye Fang's inner thoughts, he can already vaguely grasp Ye Fang's future direction of Zhongrui Capital.

"After the Xu family's affairs are over, all our energy will be focused on trading. We will have a tough battle to fight in the future!" Ye Fang said firmly.

"Yes, boss!" Lu Jiaming nodded heavily.

More than a month before September, Ye Fang was directly based in Xiangjiang, mobilizing massive funds from all over the world through the Jiutian system. The frequent fund mobilization made Xue Yuanshan deeply uneasy, and he made several phone calls to inquire about Ye Fang's fund mobilization. reason. Ye Fang stared at the huge pressure and never said a word, but Ye Fang told Xue Yuanshan that someone seemed to be watching around him.

Xue Yuanshan did not explain too much. He just said that this was a special practice in a special period, so that he should not pay too much attention to it. Xue Yuanshan did not explain too much to Ye Fang about the specific details.

Ye Fang vaguely seemed to feel that Xue Yuanshan had some unspeakable secrets that he had not made clear to himself. Ye Fang knew very well that the fast-moving train he was riding was about to change its front. In the future, whether it would continue to accelerate or change direction, this would affect everyone on the train. people's interests.

In the past month or so, Ye Fang's frequent capital mobilization and buying, coupled with the support of tens of billions of dollars from Western capital, have given the global stock market a feeling that a storm is about to come. Those who are in the capital market Sensitive people have had a premonition that a storm is about to set off in the capital market, but they don't know where the breaking point is. The entire capital market has lost its direction.

It can’t go up, it can’t go up, it can’t go down. The only active ones are gold and oil trading. The price of gold has increased by 30.00% compared with a month ago. Buying gold has become a popular trend in Xiangjiang entertainment circle, and almost everyone is doing it. I firmly believed that gold would definitely rise, and as a result, gold really did rise every day.

The entire stock market is like a pool of stagnant water, and many sensitive funds have quietly withdrawn and decided to wait and see.

"Nanyi, come with me for a walk." On the last day of August, the weather in Xiangjiang was extremely hot, so Ye Fang asked Nan Yi to go for a walk with him.

"Mr. Ye, where are we going?" Lu Jiuge asked, sitting in the driver's seat.

"Let's go to the Chinese University for a walk." Ye Fang said.

"Why do you want to go to university? Are you nervous now?" Nan Yi knows that Ye Fang is always on edge, especially since September will be tomorrow, and no one knows where the breaking point will be. Which day.

After all, a deduction is a deduction. Once an event does occur, many unexpected things will happen. That is the time when a person's adaptability is most tested.

So Nan Yi understood Ye Fang's nervousness at the moment.

"It would be a lie to say I'm not nervous." Ye Fang said while looking at the scenery that flashed by from time to time outside the car window.

"I didn't see you so nervous last time in Turkey." Nan Yi said deliberately.

"That's different. Turkey is something that has already happened. We are just taking advantage of this event. But this time it is something that has not happened yet. It can happen or not. If it doesn't happen, we will The losses will be immeasurable.”

"Don't be so nervous, I trust your judgment!" Nan Yi said and patted the back of Ye Fang's hand gently to express comfort.

If we don’t count the mutual support and snuggling when they were being hunted in Turkey, then this time it was a more formal skin-to-skin kiss between the two. Ye Fang felt better, but Nan Yi's cheeks turned red, but Ye Fang was immersed in his own emotions and didn't notice.

Lu Jiuge slowly parked his car at the entrance of the Chinese University. Ye Fang and Nan got out of the car and walked towards the campus. The temperament of the two people is very consistent with the temperament of the university campus. They walk on the tree-lined avenue of the campus without any violation. The men and women passing by are rushing to class with their books in hand.

"Come on! Professor Guo's history class on China's national destiny is about to start. If you are late, there will be no seats."

Ye Fang saw two girls running towards a teaching building with books in their arms. When Ye Fang saw this, he said, "Let's go over and listen to the lectures. I haven't listened to university professors for many years."

"Okay, today I will risk my life to accompany the gentleman." Nan Yi accompanied Ye Fang and walked towards a large classroom in the school along with the flow of students.

When he walked to the door of the large classroom, he saw a notice board with the professor's name and course introduction. Ye Fang took a look at it and the content was about the relationship between China's national destiny and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

"National destiny?!" This reference was very strange. Ye Fang and Nan opened the door and found two seats at the back of the classroom and sat down. Soon there were more and more people in the classroom, and many students were already standing outside the door to listen to the class.

At ten o'clock in the morning, a professor Guo with silver hair and black-rimmed glasses walked into the classroom. Professor Guo is a professor at China University of Political Science and Law. This time he was invited by the Chinese University to give lectures.

After Professor Guo briefly introduced himself, the lesson about the national destiny began. Professor Guo first wrote two words "National Destiny" on the blackboard, and then drew two gradually rising wavy curves. The upper one represents China's national destiny, and the lower one represents the European and American destiny. China's national destiny is at the top, Europe and the United States' destiny is at the bottom. After the two curves intersect, it becomes Europe and the United States' destiny at the top, and China's national destiny is at the bottom.

Professor Guo explained the national destiny around these two intertwined and superimposed upward curves, from China's Han and Tang civilizations to several revolutions in Europe, from China's splendid civilization to Europe's humanistic changes, and in this long period In the long history, China's national destiny has always been higher than that of Europe, which represents the prosperity of China's national power. In the end, these two curves gradually intersected. The time node of this intersection was the 17th century.

China's national destiny began to decline from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. From this moment on, European and American destiny began to overtake China's national destiny, and thus began China's centuries-long decline. Through this curve, Professor Guo relied on the major nodes of world history and Chinese history to cite extensively, travel through time and space, and interpret the laws of world development, allowing Ye Fang and Nan Yi to survey the causes of China's modern decline and the time of its re-emergence from another angle. .

Professor Guo boldly deduced that the time node for China's renaissance will be between 2040 and 2050. By that time, the upward curve of China's national destiny will once again cross the destiny curve of Europe and the United States, and China will also regain the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties. He said frankly, "Dear students, I can predict the time when China will rise again, but I may not be able to see it. But I am very happy that all of you here will see the day of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and you will be Experiencers and creators! I am truly happy for you!”

After that, it was time for students to ask questions. Several students asked questions about several points that Professor Guo talked about. Professor Guo was obviously not very satisfied with the questions raised by these students from the Chinese University. Because Xiangjiang has just returned to the motherland, the students here have very little understanding of modern Chinese history, and the questions asked are very superficial. Ye Fang felt that Professor Guo was perfunctory in interpreting these questions or that the questions were asked too lowly.

"Are there any students who want to ask questions? If not, the class ends here." Professor Guo said loudly, and then his eyes swept across the hundreds of students in the classroom.

At this time, Ye Fang suddenly raised his hand and was quickly called out by Professor Guo.

"Professor Guo, I would like to ask you what you think is the most valuable thing for China's development right now?" Ye Fang asked.

Professor Guo obviously did not expect that someone would ask such a strategic question here. After a moment of silence, he said, "It's time. The time I'm talking about is time for China to develop peacefully. In the past two years, Western countries have been ready to take action. Surrounded by tigers and wolves, if they continue to undermine China's development, suppress and obstruct China's rise, then the opportunity for the Chinese nation to rise again will be delayed indefinitely, or even completely interrupted!"

"How long do you think China needs to develop stably and peacefully?" Ye Fang continued to ask.

Professor Guo thought for a while, stretched out two fingers, and said in an unusually firm tone, "At least 20 years!"

"Twenty years?!" The students in the classroom gasped when they heard this number, which is equivalent to a generation.

"How do you think we can get these 20 years?" Ye Fang continued to ask.

"It's very simple, so that they have no energy to take into account China's development, or even ignore China's development. In this way, China will inevitably rise after 20 years of keeping a low profile! By then, any suppression and obstruction will not be an obstacle to the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation! Who can say Whoever can strive for 20 years of golden development for China is the hero behind the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!" Professor Guo firmly believed.

Professor Guo's last words were like a wake-up call that struck Ye Fang's heart. Ye Fang felt a numbness running down his backbone. Even the students in the classroom were gone. I am still immersed in the words shared by Professor Guo.

"Hey...hey...what's wrong with you, are you stupid?" Nan Yi shouted, grabbing Ye Fang's arm.

"Huh?!" At this time, Ye Fang came back to his senses and saw that the entire classroom was empty, leaving only Nan Yi sitting next to him.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just thought of a lot of things from Professor Guo's words. I feel like I have a lot of things to do." Ye Fang turned slightly red due to the surge of blood.

"What have you thought of?" Nan Yi asked curiously.

Ye Fang smiled enigmatically and said, "I thought about how important that incident was to China's development. I thought about the other meaning behind that incident. Maybe it is not a bad thing, at least for China. It’s a good thing.”

"What good thing, what bad thing, what are you talking about?" Nan Yi obviously did not understand Ye Fang's strange brain circuit.

"Nothing, let's go! I have to go back and make final preparations for the battle tomorrow!" Ye Fang clenched his fists and said loudly.
