Chapter 449 Just a Shareholder!

"The land auction for Tianxiu Lake this afternoon, prepare the documents and accompany me," Su Yun instructed directly on the phone.

"But the other shareholders..." Lin Xi hesitated for a second before cautiously reminding her.

"Don't worry about those old guys!" Su Yun interrupted Lin Xi before she could finish, her tone resolute.

"Yes." On the other end of the line, hearing Su Yun's voice, Lin Xi's heart tightened, and she quickly agreed.

After stepping into the realm of Xiantian Grandmaster, Su Yun's entire demeanor had changed significantly. While she was decisive in the past, she was also more cautious and considered things too much. Now, however, things she used to fret over seemed less important.

"Mom, while you're busy with work, don't neglect your cultivation," Zhang Fan reminded her, worried that she might put her cultivation aside for her job.

"Don't worry, the 'Seven Immortals Ascending Diagram' you taught me is imprinted in my mind. I remember it all the time," Su Yun replied with a smile.

The 'Seven Immortals Ascending Diagram' was a profound cultivation technique that directly led to the Mahayana path. Upon its completion, it could trigger heavenly tribulations, and surviving them would lead to the position of an Immortal Emperor. Zhang Fan had also deliberated for a long time before choosing to teach this to Su Yun.

The 'Seven Immortals Ascending Diagram' was the core inheritance technique of the 'Seven Immortals Sect,' a top sect located in the depths of the Myriad Domain Starry Sky. Although the 'Seven Immortals Sect' was not among the nine great immortal sects of the human race, its foundation was extremely solid. Legend had it that the 'Seven Immortals Ascending Diagram' was created by the founding ancestor of the Seven Immortals Sect, Immortal Emperor Seven Immortals, who was also the only Immortal Emperor in the sect's history. After Immortal Emperor Seven Immortals, the Seven Immortals Sect had many Immortal Venerables who reached the peak of Tribulation Transcension, but none of them managed to overcome the tribulation of enlightenment and perished under the heavenly tribulation.

...

With his mother's strength enhanced, Zhang Fan finally felt a weight lifted from his heart. There weren't many people he cared about in this world, but his mother was definitely one of the most important. Although the medicinal effects of the Golden Scale Breaking Yuan Pill were not as miraculous as the Thousand Spirit Pill and did not develop a cultivator's potential as thoroughly, it was still several times better than the Hundred Spirit Pill. After all, this was a first-grade Golden Pill refined with over a dozen types of sacred medicines, so its efficacy was naturally incomparable to the Hundred Spirit Pill, which was refined from hundreds of high-grade spirit herbs.

Now, his mother possessed strength comparable to a Xiantian Grandmaster, and his father had reached the level of Invincible Grandmaster. Moreover, with the many divine abilities and spells Zhang Fan had taught him, he could even exchange a few blows with Saint Realm experts, making him one of the absolute top-tier Invincible Grandmasters in China.

"I wonder how Luo Shui is cultivating," Zhang Fan thought, remembering Qin Luoshui. After taking the Hundred Spirit Pill and with Zhang Fan's help, Qin Luoshui had quickly cultivated true qi. Now, several months later, perhaps she had already reached the peak of true qi? However, Zhang Fan was unaware that this time, he had severely underestimated Qin Luoshui's cultivation talent.

In the following days, Zhang Fan's life became much more leisurely. He spent his days at home, playing chess with his father and discussing cultivation-related matters with his parents. As for the other affairs of the Su family, Zhang Fan paid little attention. To be honest, Zhang Fan didn't have much affection for the Su family. After all, in his past life, the Su family had never appeared, and in this life, he had very little contact with them. Even his maternal grandfather was merely the father of his mother in Zhang Fan's eyes. Among the younger generation of the Su family, only Su Ya and Su Guoguo felt close to him. As for Su Ju, Su Hao, and other younger members, he couldn't hold a conversation with them, and they felt like strangers.

Su Yun's decisiveness had increased after her strength improved, which brought many benefits, but also some troubles. Not long ago, 'Huamao Real Estate' had forcefully acquired the most expensive land in Pinghai, drawing the attention of the industry. However, when it came to commencing construction, Huamao faced significant obstruction. Although his mother didn't mention it, Zhang Fan, who spent his days playing chess and reading newspapers with his father at home, was naturally aware of Huamao's current difficulties. According to the contract, the residents on the Tianxiu Lake land had already signed demolition agreements and received compensation. But when Huamao acquired the land and prepared to start demolition, several households refused to move out, citing various reasons and causing severe delays in the commencement of work. In this era where time is money, every day of delay incurred significant losses. If this continued for a long time, even a large company like Huamao, with a market value of tens of billions, could not sustain it.

"Mom, if you ask me, you should just take action and throw those leeches out," Zhang Fan suggested. Zhang Fan wasn't the only one who suggested direct action, but Su Yun had rejected it. Although, according to the contract, the relocation deadline had long passed, and it wouldn't be illegal to forcibly remove those who refused to move, the Tianxiu Lake area was too high-profile. Both within and outside the industry, it was being closely watched. Taking direct action would inevitably be used to criticize her, which would be extremely detrimental to the future development of the project. Su Yun knew that someone was specifically targeting her, but for the moment, she hadn't come up with a solution.

"Does anyone have anything to say about the Tianxiu Lake project?" Su Yun asked, seated at the head of the table during the Huamao board meeting, looking around at the attendees.

The directors exchanged strange glances upon hearing Su Yun's words. After a moment, a middle-aged man in a blue suit spoke, "We wanted to ask you, Chairman Su, why you disregarded our suggestions as shareholders and refused to cooperate with Zhongtian Group. You spent a huge sum to acquire this piece of land. Now that we can't start construction, don't you owe us shareholders an explanation?"

"That's right. After all, we have a significant stake in this. Chairman Su insisted on acquiring the land, and now we can't commence work. Shouldn't you explain yourself?"

...

As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, someone echoed his sentiments, putting pressure on Su Yun. Su Yun sat calmly on her chair, looking at the shareholders below who were pressuring her. Her bright eyes were devoid of ripples, and she even had a slight urge to laugh. After the directors had finished speaking, Su Yun slowly opened her mouth, "It seems that all the shareholders are very dissatisfied with my decisions. But what can be done? I am Su Yun, the chairman, and you..."

"Are just shareholders!"

Su Yun said softly, looking around. At her words, everyone present involuntarily trembled slightly, their expressions exceedingly complex.
