It's already 2026, how can we still talk about having many children and having many blessings?

Upon hearing Xu Heng's inner thoughts, Chen Mo thought to himself, "What an idiot."

"That's right. Come on, have breakfast first, we'll sign the agreement later."

After breakfast, Qin Mo, Su Wan, and Luo Li brought in a lot of people.

Each of them was carrying a briefcase.

"Greetings, Mr. Chen, President Gu..."

"Have you eaten? If not, sit down and have something to eat."

"I haven't eaten."

"Okay, let's get to work."

They nodded, took out some documents, and spread them out on the table.

Luo Li pushed one of the papers in front of Xu Heng.

"Mr. Xu, this is the asset transfer agreement, which is forty-two pages long."

Xu Heng took the agreement, flipped through it, and his expression grew increasingly grim.

The first page is the asset list.

Oceanwide Holdings holds equity in two five-star hotels and a commercial complex project in Baiyue Province.

Shengkuang Industry's equity in mining enterprises and mineral vein development rights in Guangdong Province.

The 20% stake in Shenxiang Villa and the equity stakes in other companies that cooperate with the Shen family.

All of these assets are listed on a single sheet of paper.

The details are precise, down to the percentage of equity ownership, the location coordinates of the mining area, and the list of materials required for the change of legal representative.

Xu Heng glared angrily at Chen Mo, "You've been planning to seize these assets of my Xu family for a long time?"

Chen Mo smiled.

He had indeed formed this plan in his mind ever since he learned that Gu Qingyao had been poisoned.

Qin Mo and the others had already been put into action.

He acts like a central brain, connecting all causes and effects. With just a thought, he can connect all loyal employees through the system.

"No, no, no, this is not robbery. This is compensation that your Xu family, as the perpetrator, voluntarily offered in order to reach a settlement."

"Oh dear, Mr. Xu, why do you look so angry? Shouldn't we be the ones who are angry?"

"Since you seem so unwilling, let's not settle then. Today I'll have those recordings released all over the internet."

"By the way, combined with the previous incident of Xu Yuan's attempt to seize the inheritance, and those five foreign mercenaries, tsk tsk, it's going to be quite interesting..."

Xu Heng slumped in his seat like a deflated balloon.

[Damn, they even prepared an agreement; it's definitely not a last-minute thing. The power behind this person is terrifying.]

Having come this far, Xu Wei has already surrendered and has no choice but to sign. He absolutely cannot cause a scene, especially if the matter of hiring mercenaries is exposed…

[Even the Xu family's past actions of facilitating foreign powers will be exposed, and everything they have in China will be ruined.]

Chen Mo's eyes lit up.

It seems that this is the real reason why Xu Heng has come to this point.

At this moment, Xu Heng flipped through the agreement, his gaze landing on the "Liability for Breach of Contract" clause on the last page.

"If I sign, aren't you afraid that I might report you later for extortion, disrupting the economic order, and illegally obtaining funds?"

Luo Li stood up, adjusted her glasses, and said, "Mr. Xu, once you sign this agreement, it will be a legitimate settlement and compensation."

"The agreement states that these properties were transferred voluntarily by your Xu family, and it bears your signature and is witnessed by a lawyer."

"If you want to back out, you have to admit that you were coerced. Once it goes to public trial, things you don't want to be exposed will be brought to the forefront."

Xu Heng picked up the pen and signed his name on the last page.

"Mr. Xu, here are a few more copies."

Luo Li then pushed over three more documents: "Equity Transfer Consent Form, Legal Representative Change Authorization Form, and Declaration of Waiver of Preemptive Right."

Xu Heng glanced at it and signed it again.

"Alright." Luo Li put away the documents. "We will proceed with the business registration change procedures, which are expected to be completed in seven working days."

Xu Heng stood up. "I've given you the assets, and Xu Wei has turned himself in. This matter ends here."

"Of course, I'm a man of my word."

Chen Mo stood up, walked towards Xu Heng, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered something in his ear.

"Mr. Xu, you'd better stop here, otherwise, your Xu family's facilitation of foreign forces will be exposed."

"This time, I only took some assets; you should thank me for my generosity."

Xu Heng trembled all over, his eyes filled with terror.

How did he know? Just how powerful is the force behind him?

However, the information he provides on the surface is too limited.

Even if he were a disciple of some Kyoto cultural figure known as the Reiryō Jushi, he couldn't possibly have accomplished these things...

[Unless... he's from Kyoto, and he's a... no, I have to find out. I'm flying to Kyoto right now and using my connections to investigate...]

Xu Heng shivered.

"Mr. Chen, this time, my Xu family admits defeat. I will have my team cooperate to ensure the smooth transfer of these assets."

"Alright, Mr. Xu, take care."

Xu Heng is gone.

After the door closed, Gu Chengyuan slammed his hand on the table.

"Holy crap, awesome! Trust Xiao Mo, and you'll make a fortune!"

The rest is up to Luo Li and Qin Mo.

Chen Mo was not afraid that the Xu family would renege on their promise or take further action.

One comes, he kills one; or, at worst, he can just send the mother of the child near the Xu family's headquarters and have a family elimination game...

Gu Qingyao sat beside her, her face full of disbelief.

"Honey, has the Xu family really given up?"

Chen Mo shook his head.

He heard Xu Heng's thoughts and said he would go to Kyoto and use his connections to investigate him.

He couldn't predict what would happen after the investigation was completed.

"I don't know either, but regardless of whether the Xu family will let it go or not, they have already lost because he signed the agreement."

"Before signing, he had a choice; after signing, he only had one path left."

"What road?"

"Illegal means." Chen Mo smiled. "And what I fear least is illegal means."

"Uncle, Qingyao, I've laid a solid foundation for you all. I'll also provide you with guidance, but I'll leave the specific business matters to you."

"Yes, honey, don't worry, we'll definitely be able to assemble the best team this time."

Chen Mo certainly believed it, because he had his business support module.

Now, the industries associated with him have laid a solid foundation.

From now on, we can radiate outwards from Shengheng as the center.

Of course, besides Shengheng, there must be another center, which is finance.

Finance, if managed well, can provide financial support to the real economy, while the real economy can provide financial backing, creating a mutually beneficial relationship.

This is also why the Shen family coveted the Liang family's business.

In the real economy, there's Gu Qingyao; in finance, there's Shen Qing.

"Honey, we're going to get busy now."

Gu Qingyao wrapped her arms around Chen Mo's neck from behind and whispered in his ear.

"Honey, you've already secured the Xu family's shares in the Shen family's investment. If you acquire Shen Qing as well, our foundation will be solid, and we'll be able to develop even faster."

After saying that, Gu Qingyao and Gu Chengyuan left.

At this moment, Shen Mingtang walked up to Chen Mo.

"Xiao Mo, what happened yesterday was my fault, and I sincerely apologize."

"I'm willing to give up more shares. Once the Xu family's shareholding structure is transferred, you will be able to take control of the Shen family's businesses."

[This Chen Mo is terrifying. Even Xu Heng suffered a great loss and dared not speak out, clearly Chen Mo has caught him red-handed.]

My Shen family has offended the Xu family; we must get on Chen Mo's coattails to protect ourselves.

Shen Qing also came over, her eyes full of apology and a hint of pleading.

"Brother Mo, I know I was wrong. I'll transfer Qingyuan Capital to you, just so you can protect the Shen family."

She brought her mouth close to Chen Mo's ear, her breath sweet as orchids, and whispered.

"Brother Mo... I feel that if you treat me again today, I'll be completely recovered... Please forgive me?"
