117 A Man’s Virtue
Not long afterward, Yao Zizhou’s entire body was drenched.
The once loose clothing were now stuck to Yao Zizhou’s skin, and his muscles could be seen.
Yao Zizhou retorted with a cold face, not caring about his drenched body at all.
Ming Liuyi suddenly stopped and covered Yao Zizhou with a towel.
“It’s already so wet,” Ming Liuyi said quickly. “Hurry and go change.”
Yao Zizhou did not care much about it and reached down to take off his wet clothes.
Ming Liuyi immediately pressed down Yao Zizhou’s hand, and her soft voice fiercely whispered into his ear, “Don’t take it off! You have to be a man!”
“Dear, this is the beach, aren’t you being a little too possessive?” Yao Zizhou laughed.
…
After Wang Defa received the money, of course, he had to start doing the work.
That night, Wang Defa sent the feasibility analysis report of the Xinghai City project to Yao Ziyang.
At 11.00pm, Yao Ziyang was having a video conference in the living room of his hotel suite. When he saw Wang Defa’s message, he motioned for Wang Defa to wait at the side. Wang Defa waved his hand, indicating that it was fine and that the Vice President should go ahead with his work.
About ten minutes later, Yao Ziyang seemed to have finally finished his last task, and he stretched his back in exhaustion.
Wang Defa immediately said, “Vice President, it’s almost midnight. You’re so busy every day. It’s so tiring.”
“Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Wang,” Yao Ziyang said with a smile, “I still have to send the analysis report to you.”
After that, Yao Ziyang reached out and took the documents from Wang Defa. He flipped through the feasibility analysis report, which would be very useful for the subsequent progress of the project. There was also the budget. Based on previous experience, this budget was also reasonable.
With these two documents, it meant that the preliminary work was very good, and the project could continue.
“Has Yao Zizhou read these reports?” Yao Ziyang asked lightly.
Defa Wang scratched the back of his head and said, “The president didn’t look at a single one.”
Yao Ziyang nodded and passed the report to his secretary, instructing that he should send it back to Headquarters immediately and ask them to re-calculate and see if there was any room for reduction.
Now, with the right time, place, and people on his side, Yao Ziyang believed that the Xinghai City project was the key to the next step!
After Wang Defa submitted the report, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood to the side hesitantly.
Yao Ziyang looked at Wang Defa’s expression and asked curiously, “Mr. Wang, do you still have something to say?”
Wang Defa immediately said, “Vice President, you don’t know this, but the Xinghai City project has been suspended for a year. All the workers we previously gathered have left because they could not start work. If you really want to take over this project now, I can definitely arrange everything for you in the early stages.”
Yao Ziyang just looked at Wang Defa, as if he did not understand what he meant.
Wang Defa could only be more direct. He said, “The workers will be in a bad mood when they come back. We should at least give them some incentives to ease their mood.”
Yao Ziyang knew that this was normal, and casually said, “Just report to Headquarters how much you need.”
“No!” Wang Defa immediately waved his hand. “The Yao family will not allow it!”
“How much do you want? I’ll give it to you personally!” Yao Ziyang gritted his teeth.
Defa immediately raised three fingers.
“Thirty thousand is enough?” asked Yao Ziyang.
Wang Defa shook his head. He still showed three fingers.
“300,000?” Yao Ziyang was surprised.
Only then did Wang Defa nod. He said, “300,000 Yuan is actually too little. Those contractors don’t lack money; they can make money anywhere. The Xinghai City project has a few scandals, because I was shameless enough to negotiate the price with them.”
Yao Ziyang was speechless.
This was really a little absurd! Yao Ziyang was also in need of money. He had already given Wang Defa 200,000, and now he wanted another 300,000?!
The two of them instantly felt awkward.
Yao Ziyang took a deep breath and said, “When I get back to Headquarters, I’ll give you the money. Just wait for me.”
Wang Defa smiled and said a few polite words, “I wish Vice President a victory in your first battle! All the best!”
Wang Defa left the room, closing the door behind him. The smile on his face immediately disappeared.
Previously, when it was Yao Zizhou, Wang Defa could not control him, but this Vice President was quite easy to manipulate!
…
As night fell, everyone was happily preparing for a beach barbecue in the villa’s courtyard!
Shen Rui had supervised all the arrangements at the beach.
