Lin Bai carefully read through the terms and conditions. After confirming that there were no problems, he directly signed them.

Wang Huaigu was also very trustworthy. After signing the contract, he immediately transferred 1.8 billion into Lin Bai’s account.

This way, the funds in Lin Bai’s account became 3.805 billion.

Excluding the 3 billion needed to bid for the prophecy tablet, there was still more than 800 million in funds that could be used to bid for other things that he was interested in.

Lin Bai was very satisfied with his profits.

Although the operation this time was a little risky, it was fortunate that everything went smoothly.

In less than two days, he had increased his funds by 800 million. This kind of money-making speed was something that Lin Bai had never dared to imagine before.

Moreover, his actual profits were not limited to this.

Wang Huaigu had only bought the mining rights for the gold and rare earth mines.

As for the Yunding Villa project, it still belonged to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai had carefully read the exploration report. The location of the two mines was at the edge of Yunding Villa.

That area was originally planned to be used for landscaping. There were no houses on it.

Now that the mining rights of the two mines had been transferred, they had only lost some landscaping areas. There were no fewer villas that should have been there.

When Wang Huaigu had finished mining the gold and rare earth mines, the villas of the Yunding Villa project would be almost completed.

When the time came, he would fill in the pits, transplant some trees and lawns, and create artificial sceneries such as rockery and flowing water. It would be no different from the original plan.

Anyway, Lin Bai had already made a profit. When the villa was built, he could still make a lot of money even if he sold it out at the price of an ordinary house.

Moreover, the Yunding Villa was a luxury residential project. Even if the price was reduced, it would not be reduced to the level of an ordinary house.

Therefore, Lin Bai could only make more money in the end.

Although the project had not been completed yet, it was still unknown how much profit he would be able to earn in the end.

However, Lin Bai estimated that a profit of at least two to three billion yuan should not be a problem.

If his luck was a little better and the sales went smoothly, it was not impossible for him to earn more than three billion yuan.

In that case, Lin Bai only spent one billion yuan to earn a profit of about four billion yuan, and he did not need to pay anything extra.

Such a deal could be said to be quite cost-effective.

After completing the relevant procedures, Lin Bai rejected Wang Huaigu’s lunch invitation and returned to the school alone, preparing to pack his luggage and set off for Dragon City.

Although it was completely possible to get on the plane before five o’clock, Lin Bai felt that it was better to reserve more time.

Therefore, he planned to go to the school cafeteria for a meal and then go back to the dormitory to pack up his things and go straight to the airport.

If the time was right, then he would book an earlier flight. Even if the ticket price was slightly more expensive, it was still acceptable.

Lin Bai’s plan was perfect, but just as he reached the school gate, he was blocked by a group of people.

There were nearly twenty people, and all of them were big and stocky, with fierce expressions on their faces.

Lin Bai only gave them a cursory glance, and the Divine-level Human Detection skill immediately determined that these people were all gangsters, and not a single one of them was a good person.

Moreover, among them, there were quite a few who had participated in the violent demolition, indirectly causing the deaths of others.

After seeing the information related to the violent demolition, Lin Bai immediately guessed the background of these people.

They must have been sent here by the boss of the Qingcheng Group, Shen Wanqing.

The discovery of the gold and rare earth mines under the Yunding Mountain Villa could not be hidden from Shen Wanqing.

He would definitely know. It was just a matter of time.

Lin Bai just did not expect that Shen Wanqing’s information was so well-informed and that she knew about it so quickly.

Moreover, he also did not expect that Shen Wanqing would actually dare to send people directly to the school gate to stop him.

From the looks of it, it was obvious that she wanted to use violence to force Lin Bai to submit so that he could get a share for Shen Wanqing.

Although he had already guessed the other party’s intentions, Lin Bai still asked them with a dark expression.

“Who are you people? What do you want to do?”

The leader of the thugs laughed coldly and said sarcastically, “I heard that Big Boss Lin has struck it rich. We came specially to congratulate you!”

Although he said congratulations, his eyes were fierce and menacing. It was as if he wanted to eat Lin Bai alive.

If it was an ordinary student, he would have been scared to death and been at a loss for what to do.

However, Lin Bai was not an ordinary person.

He had the god-level fighting technique with him. How could he be afraid of such a low-level hooligan?

Lin Bai smiled faintly and said calmly, “Okay, I have received your wishes. Please leave.”

The gangsters did not expect Lin Bai to be so calm. They were all a little stunned.

They had issued threats and scared many others but this was the first time they had met someone as calm as Lin Bai.

The leader of the gangsters cursed, and his expression became more ferocious.

“Stop playing dumb with us!”

“Why don’t you just say it? Director Shen wants to see you! If you know what’s good for you, then cooperate obediently. Don’t force us to make a move!”

Lin Bai thought about it and felt that since there was plenty of time anyway, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to take advantage of this opportunity to deal with that Scumbag Shen Wanqing.

Thus, he didn’t make a move against this group of hooligans. Instead, he calmly said, “Alright, then bring me there.”

The hooligans didn’t expect Lin Bai to agree so readily. They thought that he was afraid and all of them revealed disdainful expressions.

“I thought he was really somehing, but it turns out that he’s just pretending.”

“Tsk, he’s pretending to be calm. Didn’t he just give up after a few words?”

Lin Bai didn’t argue with them. He calmly got into the van and followed them to see Shen Wanqing.

Out of Lin Bai’s expectations, Shen Wanqing wasn’t in Qingcheng Group but was waiting for him in a dilapidated residential building on the outskirts of the city.

Lin Bai thought to himself. It seemed that this was Shen Wanqing’s other stronghold.

The dirty work that he usually did in the dark should have been done here.

As soon as they met, Lin Bai asked directly, “Mr. Shen, what are you doing here?”

“Mr. Shen, you went through so much trouble to get me here. Are you going to treat me to a meal? What exactly do you want?”

Shen Wanqing did not waste any time. He took out a bank card and slammed it on the table. Then, he pointed at the contract beside the bank card.

He said, “There’s 100,000 yuan in this card. Sign the transfer agreement.”

Lin Bai could not help but laugh.

“100,000 yuan? Mr. Shen, did you remember wrongly? I bought the Yunding Villa yesterday at the price of one billion yuan.”

“Now you want to buy it back with 100,000 yuan? Do you take me for a fool?”

Shen Wanqing’s face turned sullen and he asked coldly, “Are you going to sign it or not?”

When he asked this sentence, the bodyguards behind him stepped forward, but they also deliberately exposed the daggers attached to their waists.
