Power of Money
Chapter 721

He left the elevator.

They went straight into the conference hall on the top floor.

In the large conference room, there were only three people sitting at the moment, Dan, and two of his assistants.

When the golden light saw Dan from afar, it immediately extended its hand and welcomed him.

"Hello, Mr. Zhao, I'm Chuck. Do you still remember me? We met in Gloria House before. At that time, you also said that if there was a chance to cooperate, you would definitely consider our Jin Family. I didn't expect that we would meet so soon."

Gold Can could not wait to stride to Dan and reached out to shake Dan's hand.

The moment he clenched his hand, Chuck's brows instantly rose up.

It seemed that the contract could not be signed, but why didn't he see Colton at the scene? But these were not important. Dan was also the person in charge of the whole project. Killing him might be more useful than killing Colton.

"Take a seat."

Dan released his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Chuck.

"Where's Jinlan? Why didn't she come today?"

Then he asked again.

"Lara?"

Sitting opposite to Dan, Chuck curled his lips in disdain and said, "She will do her job in the family. She can't come today. Let's talk about signing the contract."

Dan nodded and said, "Then wait for Miss Jinlan to finish her work and then sign the contract. Farewell."

After that, Dan stood up and left with his two assistants.

Chuck was stunned. He didn't understand what was going on at the scene. Just because Lara, the inferior dog, didn't come, he canceled today's meeting at noon?

"Mr. Zhao, please wait a moment. Lara is not here, but I, Chuck, am the actual person in charge of this project. She is just a messenger. Did you make a mistake? This does not delay our cooperation..." Chuck came to his senses and hurriedly chased after Dan.

"I think the Jin family might have misunderstood what we mean. Although we agreed to work together with the Jin family, we've made it clear that the agreement between us is that we'll be the one to come. We've also determined that we'll be the Gold Orchid. Since she's busy today, we'll come back to sign a contract with her when she's free!"

Dan did not look back. He took everyone's information and left the conference room.

Watching Dan and everyone else leave, Chuck stood alone in the empty conference room and did not recover for a long time.

The other party's attitude was just too unyielding.

He didn't have any chance to explain at all. If he couldn't see Lara, he wouldn't sign the contract!

Why was that so?

Why would Dan directly assign the quota for Lara?!

"Why should I do that?"

Chuck knew how important this project was to the Jin Family! Yesterday, they even held a family meeting. For this matter, the entire Jin Family was waiting for the project to be signed. After it was done, they would split the money for the banquet.

Could it be that we really have to let Lara, that low-class dog, negotiate? Could this project really be signed?

Chuck stood there, teeth about to break.

If it weren't for the project's importance, he would rather give up the money so that the 7th branch of the Jinlan Kingdom would not have a chance to get what they wanted!

After a long silence in the conference room, Chuck's phone suddenly rang.

"Second brother, have you signed the contract yet? Does Dan and the others want to stay for dinner and drink some wine before leaving? Everyone is waiting for the good news. Hurry back after you finish drinking, or I'll pick you up directly!"

At the other end of the phone was Landon's excited voice.

"To drink?"

Golden gold light laughed coldly.

"Let's drink! Let's drink! You're a good-for-nothing! You're a good-for-nothing!"

Peng!

The phone was slammed to the ground.

Chuck, dressed in a fitted suit, was like a crazy beast at the moment. His eyes were red and he let out an odd low roar.

In Jin Family's meeting hall.

This was the first time that the Jin Family had held two family meetings for the same thing in the past ten years.

Jin Clan's clansmen were present.

After all, at noon, Chuck went to sign a contract with Dan and Colton. When the dust was settled, the project of more than 10 billion yuan was indeed a thing worth celebrating for the present Jin Family. Housekeeper Jin Long even prepared a few bottles of red wine and waited for Chuck to return before starting to celebrate.

"Landon, what did my second brother say on the phone, he hasn't come back yet?" Sitting in the main hall, Jin Buhuan looked at the clansmen with a bright smile on his face. In fact, the business of more than 10 billion yuan was not particularly big for the head of the Jin Family, but it was in the case of the four families of Capital City taking action together. Only the Jin Family got the only project, and that was what he was happy about.

"Well... I think we're still talking..." Landon hung up the phone violently by Chuck, so he didn't know what had happened over there.

"It seems so." Jin Fei frowned. "It's a done deal. We just need to sign a contract and go through the process. Well, Dan and the others, do they still want to change their mind?"

The most important thing about the cooperation between big families was credibility.

Sometimes, a single word was more effective than a single contract. Jin Buhuan did not believe that he was in Capital City. Dan and Colton dared to go back on their words and take advantage of the Jin Family.

"I, I..." Landon didn't know how to explain it to Jin Bu'gou. He could see that the family head was a little angry.

"The contract has not been signed yet. Dan said that this project can only be handed over to Lara. She can only sign the contract if she goes there in person. No one else is qualified!"

Just then, the door of the meeting room was suddenly pushed open and Chuck walked in with a gloomy face.

"What do you mean?"

Without any small talk, seeing Chuck go home, Jin Buhuan asked directly.

"Dan said that they had named Lara in the contract. They let Lara, as the representative of our Jin Family, become the specific person in charge of the project. They only recognized Lara. If anyone from the Jin Family went there, they would not sign the contract until they saw Lara's position."

Chuck walked into the middle of the hall and said in a cold tone.

"Nonsense!" When Jin Buhuan heard this, his face suddenly turned red. "How can he leave such a big business to a woman? Is it Dan's idea or Colton's idea?"

The implication was very obvious. If it was Dan's intention, it should be a public affair. Maybe it was because he valued some of Lara's special skills that he was relieved to hand over the project to her. But if it was Colton's intention, it was difficult to keep Lara as his personal secretary, so it was necessary to let people think deeply about it.

"It means they're in cahoots." Chuck clenched his teeth.

Jin Buhuan stopped talking.

This seemed to be the same as his decision yesterday, as if it was a slap in the face.

To one side, the chief steward, Golden Dragon, who was good at observing people's expressions, hastily asked: "Where are the Lara people?"

"Yes, in the ancestral hall..." Landon hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Ancestral Shrine?"

It took Golden Dragon a moment to remember that Lara had not been to the KFC Hotel today because she had been sent to burn incense in the ancestral shrine and clean the room.

"Go, call Jin lan here! Ask her to go to the Kaixuan Hotel as soon as possible to replace Dan to sign the contract, and the matter must be kept secret. The other three families know that our Jin Family is rejected by Dan today, which will definitely be a joke and damage the reputation of our Jin Family!"

Golden Dragon quickly came up with a plan to save the situation. He sent someone to the Ancestral Shrine to invite Lara here.

"I'll leave the rest to you. You can report to me when the result comes out."

Jin Buhuan also stood up at this time and left the Council Chamber.

At this very moment.

He was wearing a black uniform dress, dressed up properly, and his face was painted with exquisite makeup. Lara, who should have replaced Jason and appeared in Kaixuan Hotel, was in the ancestral shrine of Jin Family. Carrying a rag in one hand and a bucket in the other, she wiped the tribute desk and the portrait of the ancestors of Jin Family with great effort.

This morning, Golden Dragon suddenly decided to let her work in the ancestral shrine, which was absolutely unexpected by Lara.

She knew that there must be a shadow of Chuck and Landon behind this, but she didn't know what they did it for and what benefits they could get.

After all, he would attend all occasions on behalf of Jason these days. With most of the agreements signed, how could the Jin Family sign the contract with Dan if she was not there?

Lara was just thinking when she heard a clanging sound. The doors of the ancestral shrine were pushed open, and a few old servants of the Jin Family ran up to her. They hurriedly bent down and said anxiously, "Seventh Miss, please don't do it. We're all waiting!"

Seven, Seventh Miss?

Lara was stunned with a rag in her hand.
