Chapter 79 Jiang Yanfeng's Reluctance
He silently lit a cigarette and took a deep puff, trying to calm himself down. At this moment, a bodyguard came over and respectfully handed him a glass of wine.
After several hours, two bodyguards finally came out of the shabby house, carrying a sack that had become unusually light.
He walked straight to the beach, and then continuously sprinkled the white ash in the bag onto the sea.
After the incident was over, Jiang Shangqiu looked expressionlessly at the dilapidated crematorium in front of him that had been abandoned for many years, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
He waved his hand, signaling the bodyguards behind him to take action. The bodyguards immediately ignited the gasoline, and the raging fire instantly engulfed the entire crematorium.
Jiang Shangqiu stood quietly in the distance, watching the flames gradually rise and burn everything to ashes. Only when the fire was completely extinguished did he turn around and lead everyone away, leaving behind a dead ruin.
More than an hour later, they arrived at an unfinished building in the suburbs.
The building is surrounded by open space without any shelter, and the wind blows from all directions, making it look particularly desolate.
The entire building didn't even have a wall, it just used some simple materials to build the floor supports.
Jiang Shangqiu walked up the stairs slowly with a dozen bodyguards, taking steady steps. Every step seemed to carry a heavy pressure.
When they finally reached the eighth floor, what came into view was a middle-aged man who was tied up tightly.
He was groaning in pain, and surrounded by a dozen indifferent bodyguards. It was obvious that all the wounds on his body were caused by these bodyguards.
The man who was tied up was Jiang Shangqiu's second uncle, Jiang Yanfeng.
The moment Jiang Yanfeng saw Jiang Shangqiu appear, the miserable shouting and cursing stopped abruptly.
He stared at Jiang Shangqiu with wide eyes and full of resentment, gritting his teeth and cursing: "Jiang Shangqiu, you... you bastard! What on earth do you want to do?"
The bodyguard placed a worn-out stool behind Jiang Shangqiu, and then laid a small white cloth on the stool.
After Jiang Shangqiu sat down leisurely, his originally calm face suddenly showed a creepy evil smile.
This strange smile stared straight at Jiang Yanfeng, as if it wanted to penetrate his soul, causing Jiang Yanfeng to panic and a chill running down his spine.
Jiang Shangqiu's smile became more and more ferocious and filled with a sinister aura. He said to Jiang Yanfeng coldly, "You son of a bitch? Second uncle, how can you say such a thing?"
"Have you forgotten your status and generation? Calling him that is not only an insult to the whole family, but also a great disrespect to Grandpa!"
Jiang Yanfeng suppressed his fear and cowardice and angrily retorted: "Don't mention that old guy! It's okay if he favors your father."
"Before he died, he actually handed over the entire group to you two! And what about me? I only got a mere 10% of the shares!"
"Hmph, the old man should have died long ago! It's all because of his partiality that he ended up like this. This is retribution!" Jiang Yanfeng became more and more excited as he spoke, with sparks of resentment flashing in his eyes.
Facing Jiang Yanfeng's angry rebuke, Jiang Shangqiu remained calm and responded without any disturbance: "Second Uncle, you have been doing small things in secret over the years..."
"First, they bought shares from small shareholders, and then colluded with those wicked people in an attempt to usurp the power of the company."
"My father has always been tolerant and patient, but you should never collude with other forces to suppress our own industry for your own selfish desires!"
After hearing what Jiang Shangqiu said, Jiang Yanfeng suddenly laughed like crazy, and said while laughing: "Personal selfishness? So what? I should have half of this group! It's all because of your grandfather, that old guy, he only knows how to favor your father!"
Jiang Shangqiu sneered and responded, "Second Uncle, do you think it's possible? Do you think you can take over half of the group?"
"If the old man hadn't refused to split the group into two, how could I have done such a thing!" Jiang Yanfeng roared with his eyes wide open.
Jiang Shangqiu's eyes were full of contempt and disdain. He sneered and retorted: "Second uncle, second uncle, you are really whimsical."
"My grandfather once said that someone as reckless and impulsive as you don't understand the intricacies and deceptions of the business world."
"It is for this reason that Grandpa only gave you 10% of the shares so that you can live a stable and peaceful life."
“However, human greed is insatiable, but you are not satisfied and are full of greed.” Jiang Shangqiu continued to scold.
Jiang Yanfeng laughed even crazier and louder, his voice was deafening, he shouted: "Is this how the old man evaluates me? Humph, he is clearly biased, and he even finds so many high-sounding excuses!"
"If he had not handed the group over to you and your son to manage, but handed it over to me, then it would definitely be our Jiang family, not the Lan family, who would dominate Xianghong City today!" Jiang Yanfeng's face was full of unwillingness and resentment.
Hearing Jiang Yanfeng's words, Jiang Shangqiu couldn't help laughing and said, "Second Uncle, after so many years, you haven't changed at all, you are still so narrow-minded!"
He paused, then continued, "Have you ever truly understood how deep the Lan family's background is?"
"Even a behemoth like the Chai family was destroyed by them in just half a year. Do you think our Jiang family has enough strength to compete with them?"
Jiang Shangqiu shook his head and sighed, "If Grandpa had really given you half of the group to manage, I'm afraid the Jiang Group would have disappeared by now."
Facing Jiang Shangqiu's accusation, Jiang Yanfeng not only did not show any remorse, but instead showed a trace of contemptuous smile, and said sarcastically: "Jiang Shangqiu, you two are simply birds of a feather, both are cowardly turtles who can only retreat and escape!"
Then, Jiang Yanfeng arrogantly declared: "If I were to take charge of the Jiang family, relying on the strength of the Jiang family back then, I would definitely be able to snatch a big piece of the pie from the Lan family."
"By then, the Jiang family will surely become the undisputed overlord of Xianghong City!"
However, Jiang Shangqiu felt that Jiang Yanfeng's ridiculous remarks were just like a fairy tale.
He sneered and responded, "Second Uncle, you really have never changed. You are still the same person I have known since childhood."
"You are always so arrogant and stubborn. You are the type who won't cry until you see the coffin. Only after you suffer will you learn to restrain yourself."
Jiang Yanfeng spat on the ground.
He continued to shout, "Where is that bastard Jiang Yanzhou? Don't use you as a shield, let him talk to me in person."
