I Am Born With A Silver Spoon
Chapter 257 Bring Them to The Police Station

By the time Chen Hao reached there, there were a lot of cars parked outside of Li Xiao's used car dealership shop. A gang of people had gathered in front of the place. From their appearances, they were here

to look for trouble.

They had smashed the glass door of the shop into pieces.

From afar, Chen Hao caught sight of two familiar figures.

They were none other than the fierce lady and her daughter whom he had a matchmaking session with.

At the sight of this, Chen Hao immediately understood everything.

No wonder Su Ting was trying so hard to stop him from coming here over the phone.

It seemed like they were here to seek revenge.

"Damn, that's him. That son of a b*tch fled after beating us up!"

When that fierce woman caught sight of Chen Hao, she immediately cried out to the people standing behind her.

Judging from the looks of the people, they came from the underworld.

Their arms were full of all kinds of tattoos. From their appearances, they were not ones to be messed with.

Most of them were young guys at the age of around twenty-six or twenty-seven.

They were holding sticks in their hands.

Li Xiao was holding two kitchen knives in both of his hands as well. Although he was outnumbered, he managed to keep his composure. The gang of people were hesitant to take action, seeing that Li Xiao was a bold and intimidating one.

Both parties were confronting each other. No one was daring enough to make the first move.

The fierce woman demanded, "This is the son of a b*tch who beat both of us up! Beat the h*ll out of him!"

"I dare you to lay a finger on my brother!"

Li Xiao swung the kitchen knives in his hand and exclaimed. With that, the bunch of people from the other side were immediately tamed.

The leader of the bunch of people was a stout and burly guy. He wore sunglasses and he was holding a tiny black bag in one of his hands. He waved the black bag in his hand, and the rest of the gang immediately took a step back following his cue.

"Li Xiao, you and I go way back and we both deal with used cars. I know your personality well. Hehe, if someone unrelated was involved in this, I would have let it go. However, this time around, it's my cousin and my aunt who got beaten up. I can't tolerate this! I need an explanation!"

That guy glared at him with his head tilted to one side.

"Yang Guoquan, is this b*tch really your damn cousin? I've never heard you talk about any aunt!" Li Xiao scoffed.

Chen Hao, who was standing at one side, was able to see that the girl was promiscuous. It was uncertain how many guys she was involved with.

"Hehe, don't you worry about this. Enough said, Li Xiao. Back then, we didn't see eye to eye with each other over business matters. However, because of the bosses, I was not in a position to say anything. However, for this matter, you and I are officially enemies from now on. Just wait and see. Guys, let's go!"

Yang Guoquan waved his hands and left together with the gang.

The girl exclaimed indignantly, "Guoquan, are we going to forgive them just like this?!"

"Let's go, I have plenty of ways to deal with them!" Yang Guoquan chuckled coldly.

With that, the crowd dispersed.

A sense of self-reproach grew in Chen Hao at the sight of the broken glass door of Li Xiao's shop.

Came to think of it, it was him who had caused the trouble.

However, his brother was the one who suffered the consequences.

"Li Xiao, Su Ting, I am so sorry!" Chen Hao said.

"You don't have to say that. It's not your fault. The feud between Yang Guoquan and I has been around for a long while. He would replace any excuse to look for trouble."

Li Xiao tossed the kitchen knives aside.

He then took a cigarette from one side and lit it up.

As for Su Ting, she went on to clean up the broken glass pieces on the floor.

According to Li Xiao's narration, Chen Hao got to know the whole matter inside out.

In the beginning, Li Xiao and Suting got back from the supermarket loaded with plenty of food for dinner.

When they reached the shop, they saw Yang Guoquan, the fierce lady and her daughter standing before the entrance.

Apparently, the fierce lady and her daughter had brought some guys with them to seek revenge on Chen Hao, but they failed to locate him.

They asked Li Xiao about Chen Hao's whereabouts, but Li Xiao kept his mouth shut.

Because of Li Xiao's impulsive personality, he straightaway cursed at the fierce lady and her daughter!

Shortly after, a fight ensued. In the midst of the brawl, several of them smashed the glass door.

Thereafter, Li Xiao made a dash to the back of the shop and took two kitchen knives out.

This was the reason why Li Xiao did not pick up Chen Hao's call. He didn't want Chen Hao to get involved in this mess.

"What kind of character is Yang Guoquan?" Chen Hao asked.

Li Xiao had taken the blame on his behalf. Even if he didn't, Chen Hao still felt the need to teach Yang Guoquan a lesson.

"He is a big shot in the underworld and he is a used car dealer as well. Last month, he was here to look for trouble as he claimed that Li Xiao had broken the rules and undercut him in a transaction. Thanks to some bosses in the underworld who took charge of this area, the matter was resolved after some nice things were said on behalf of Li Xiao. Yang Guoquan relies on the influence of his brother-in-law. From what I heard, his brother-in-law is a very influential figure in the city!"

Su Ting elaborated while she was cleaning up the mess.

"Oh, I see!"

Chen Hao nodded his head.

"I will inform Zhao Zixing tonight and ask him to deal with Yang Guoquan secretly."

However, he had something even more important to tell Li Xiao.

"Oh right, Li Xiao, now that Dreamer Investment Group is operating in Ping An County, why don't you use this opportunity to engage with them so that you will be able to expand your car dealership business? Let me help you!" Chen Hao said.

It went without saying that Chen Hao would provide him the fund.

After all, the relationship between Li Xiao and him was different compared to others.

"Sigh, they would not pay any regards to us. How is it possible that they would even invest in our business?" said Su Ting while pursing her lips.

Li Xiao added, "Brother, you might not know a lot about doing business here. Let's not talk about successfully securing their investment. Sole proprietors like us are not even qualified to pitch our ideas to them. Let me be frank with you, even companies who do genuine and honest business in Ping An County replace it hard to get the Dreamer Investment Group to invest in them. All in all, you still don't have a thorough understanding of how a business runs here."

"What? Why can't companies who do genuine and honest business get the investment?"

Chen Hao really had no idea about this.

"Ahem. In order to get the Dreamer Investment Group to invest, one must bond well with the staff in the core department of the company. Not only that, you must be on good terms with both the staff as well as the manager of the Marketing Department. One has to work through the bureaucracy in order to achieve anything."

"As for small business owners, they already have a low profit margin as they need the money to ensure the quality of their products."

"They simply don't have any spare money to grease the process.”

"Only those who are already very rich and powerful in Ping An County could secure their investment."

"I am sure you understand now... All in all, Ping An County is not a place as simple as you expected. It's very complicated!"

After Li Xiao finished smoking, he threw the cigarette butt on the floor and stepped on it to extinguish any remaining flame. Chen Hao finally understood something.

He used to wonder why Li Wenyang and his father could secure the investment despite not being serious in doing business.

It was because of this reason.

The purpose of setting up the investment company back then was to offer support to small businesses with good products. In the end, the purpose was not served at all.

Apparently, there were some serious problems in the management of the company.

The problem probably stemmed from the quality of the newly hired staff in the managerial department.

Even Li Zhenguo had neglected this problem.

In fact, Chen Hao was able to discern some clues from what happened to Jin Biao.

Chen Hao had made up his mind.

However, he still advised Li Xiao to submit a proposal to the company.

Because Chen Hao will directly approve the proposal himself.

At this moment, several police cars had pulled to a stop outside of the shop.

A team of people wearing police uniforms got out of the cars.

"You are?" Su Ting asked in consternation.

"Hmph, we received a tip that a brawl had happened here. Are you guys the ones involved in the fighting? Is your name Li Xiao?" The leader snorted at Li Xiao.

"I am. But I am not the only one involved in the brawl. Yang Guoquan was involved too!"

"Enough said. Bring the three of them to the police station for further investigation!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
