Wang Jian'an was stunned. He never expected that Ye Chen would make such a request as soon as he opened his mouth.

The key point is that the number Ye Chen mentioned far exceeds the limit that I can currently bear.

Even though he had prepared in advance to have the woman bring all 50000 yuan, it was still a drop in the ocean compared to Ye Chen's exorbitant demands!

In an instant, Wang Jian'an made up his mind that he could not pay the money today.

Not only can't I give it away, but I also can't let anyone else find out that I'm broke!

"Brother Ye Chen, money is no object. I'm in business; I don't need your money!"

"How about this? Come to my nightclub tomorrow, and we'll have a good chat. I promise you won't owe me a penny!"

Wang Jian'an, self-righteous and self-assured, invited her while harboring a malicious intent.

If Ye Chen really dares to come to my territory, I will make sure he never comes back!

But Ye Chen wasn't buying it. He grinned and asked a question in return.

"Boss Wang, all the tenants in the shop know you're wealthy and powerful. It's just a mere 70,000 yuan. Do we really have to wait all night?"

"Does Boss Wang need time to raise the money, or does he simply not have that much on hand?"

"I've seen plenty of people who try to appear richer than they are these days. Boss Wang might fool some idiots, but he can't fool me. Does he really have the money to rent all these shops? Can he afford the transfer fees?"

Ye Chen raised his voice more and more as he spoke, and finally he even shouted it out.

After hearing this, and considering Wang Jian'an's current behavior, the neighbors were immediately in a dilemma.

Indeed, Mr. Wang can't even come up with more than 70,000 yuan now. Could it be that he really has no money?

"you……"

Wang Jian'an's face was ashen, his fists clenched tightly, wishing he could punch Ye Chen in the face!

What he feared most was that Ye Chen would expose his secret. If this got out, he would be finished!

No, no one knows about the huge deposit I paid. I must stay calm and not let outsiders find out!

Taking a deep breath, Wang Jian'an laughed heartily: "Brother Ye Chen, you're joking. My nightclubs are doing very well, making a fortune every night."

"Besides, with so many people following me, how could I possibly be short of money?"

"I didn't expect Brother Ye Chen to be so generous before I came. He gave more than 70,000 yuan right away. I only brought 50,000 yuan with me, so I made you wait a bit."

"Brother Ye Chen, are you perhaps resentful and unwilling to see me cooperate with these tenants? Money isn't something you can earn all by yourself; sometimes you just need to relax!"

As a cunning old fox, Wang Jian'an quickly shifted the blame back to Ye Chen with just a few words!

This was clearly a reminder to the tenants not to believe Ye Chen's words, that Ye Chen was trying to sabotage the cooperation!

The scene was thrown into turmoil once again, with the tenants discussing the matter animatedly.

"Boss Wang is right. Who would have nothing better to do than carry around over 70,000 yuan?"

"Ye Chen is so petty. He didn't pay enough, and now he's blaming others?"

"I do feel something's off. Why do they seem to know each other? Do they have some kind of grudge from the past?"

Hearing the various comments from the crowd, Ye Chen remained calm and composed. From the very beginning, his only goal was to attract everyone's attention!

Now that the goal has been achieved, it's time to unleash the trump card!

With almost all the tenants present, all it takes is to drop a bombshell, and Wang Jian'an's true colors will be revealed!

"Boss Wang, are you really that confident? But I heard that you might lose that piece of land you own for your nightclub?"

"A friend of mine told me he plans to spend 150,000 yuan to rent the land where your nightclub is, but the section chief hasn't replied yet. He must have informed you a while ago, right?"

"Boss Wang, as far as I know, you don't have more than 300,000 in cash. If you want to keep the nightclub, you'll have to come up with more than 150,000!"

"But with such a large sum of money suddenly appearing, do you have enough cash on hand? These shops combined are worth at least three or four hundred thousand. You might have had that much before, but do you still have that much money now?"

Ye Chen's words were crisp and clear, his voice like thorns piercing directly into Wang Jian'an's heart!

Instantly, Wang Jian'an's breathing quickened, and he stared at Ye Chen with surprise in his eyes.

This is my secret, how could he possibly know?

How could Ye Chen possibly be so precise about the rent for that club?

With just one thought, Wang Jian'an understood everything!

The shopkeeper who suddenly raised the price was arranged by Ye Chen!

Only someone who personally experienced this could describe all the details so clearly!

"So it was you! It's all because of you, you bastard..."

In a fit of anger, Wang Jian'an blurted out a curse.

But the next second, when she looked up and saw Ye Chen's smile, her heart skipped a beat!

If I were to lash out now, wouldn't that just expose my true colors?

Sure enough, the surrounding tenants were slightly taken aback, but then erupted in a burst of energy!

"What Ye Chen said is true, Boss Wang really is out of money!"

"Indeed, if Boss Wang had any real confidence, why would he have been so quick to yell at people just now?"

"No, Boss Wang has to hand over the money. If I don't see the money today, I'd rather cooperate with Ye Chen!"

The tide has turned, and the tenants who had previously praised Wang Jian'an are now turning against him.

Many people even shouted their demands, forcing Wang Jian'an to take out the cash first so that everyone could see it!

"you……"

"What kind of cooperation is this? Why should I tell you how much money I have?"

Wang Jian'an was even more uncertain. He waved his hands and roared at the surroundings, his face full of ferocity.

Just as the conflict broke out between the two sides, Ye Chen announced some big news!

"Bosses, you probably don't know this, but three months ago, a group of thugs started causing trouble here from time to time. Guess who arranged it?"

"I have a friend, Zhao, the current deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, who told me personally that Wang Jian'an, the boss, is the mastermind behind all of this!"

"You expect to cooperate with someone who persecuted you? That's a joke. Someone would love to devour you whole, leaving not even bones behind. And you expect him to pay you?"

"Boss Wang, if I'm not mistaken, if I hadn't intervened and pressured you, you probably would have found all sorts of excuses to take over the shop first, right?"

"Once the shop is in your hands, it won't be so easy for these people to get it back. You can hire thugs to cause trouble, which will shut everyone up!"

"Whoosh!"

Ye Chen's words caused an uproar in the room.

The tenants, their faces contorted with anger, surrounded Wang Jian'an from all directions!
