The Invincible Son-in-law

"Big brother, don't you understand the situation? Now it's Second Uncle who's putting pressure on us, and he's going to firmly stand on Lin Hao's side." Su Muyu said angrily.

"Then we should find Aunt Yun! Didn't she accept the jewelry mom gave her?" Su Muyang thought of Peng Yunyan.

"Peng Yunyan can make decisions on small matters at home, but for big issues, it's definitely Second Uncle who has the final say. I think we should stick to the original plan; I'll take Lin Hao to see the villa and office building tomorrow." Su Muyu felt it wasn't wise to go head-to-head with Lin Hao.

Actually, she was a bit regretful now; she shouldn't have offered the villa and high-end office building initially. Just finding any place for office and lodging would have been fine.

But then again, the people from Red Era Group aren't ordinary people. Would they even consider ordinary places?

"What's most infuriating is that we're lending a substantial sum to Lin Hao, that kid, for him to use as a favor. We might as well rent it directly to Red Era Group; then they would owe us a favor." Su Muyang said indignantly.

"Big brother, many people called Lin Hao today, inviting him to meals. If others agree to his terms, we might end up empty-handed." Su Muyu shook her head, thinking it wouldn't be wise to burn bridges.

"Many people invited him for meals? Do you know who they are?" Upon hearing this, Su Dingzhang's face grew even more solemn.

"At the time, there was only one, President Fu from Li Yang Heavy Machinery Factory. When I left, I saw him still on the phone, seemingly arranging dinner for Saturday night. I think I heard him mention President Dong." Su Muyu recalled the situation carefully.

"President Dong? Then it must be Dong Wenbing from Liyuan Building Materials City. If Lin Hao turns to him, with the building materials city being his turf, finding a place for office and accommodations would be easy." Su Dingzhang said gravely.

"Dad, we're relatives with Lin Hao; he's Second Uncle's son-in-law. Can't we use that connection?" Su Muyang was visibly frustrated.

"Yes, Dad, maybe you could talk to Second Uncle and pressure Lin Hao a bit." Su Muyu also thought it was feasible.

It was just now that Su Dingfang called Su Muyu to talk, not directly approaching Su Dingzhang. Though his attitude was firm, given that Su Dingzhang is his big brother, he surely should show some respect, right?

Besides, over the years, Su Dingzhang had secretly given quite a few benefits to Su Dingfang, even letting him share some dividends in private.

Of course, Su Dingfang had also given a lot of support to the Su family's business in the official arena, making it a mutually beneficial arrangement for both.

After much thought, Su Dingzhang still dialed Su Dingfang's number.

"Big brother, it's so late. What's the matter?" Su Dingfang asked.

Su Dingzhang said in a deep voice, "Second brother, this time with Red Era Group coming to our Wucheng County is a rare opportunity, and a time for our Su Family to shine. At this crucial moment, you must stand with the family!"

"Of course, I'm with the family. Didn't I have Lin Hao help you?" Su Dingfang looked at Lin Hao opposite him, his expression darkened.

"Lin Hao is proposing to find office and accommodation for Red Era Group. Muyu readily agreed, but can we change the free villa to an ordinary residence? The office location..."

Before Su Dingzhang could finish, Su Dingfang interrupted him, "I can't decide on this. You better discuss it with Lin Hao directly."

"Second brother, listen to me..." Su Dingzhang became anxious too.

"Listen to what? You are the chairman of a large enterprise. You should understand that without sacrifice, you can't catch a wolf. Without such vision, how do you do business?" Su Dingfang said coldly, handing the phone to Lin Hao.

Lin Hao naturally understood the underlying meaning: now, Su Dingzhang felt that what Lin Hao was asking for was too much, especially the villa, which made him a bit heart-sore.

"Uncle, this is Lin Hao."

"Lin Hao, I just spoke to your Second Uncle. There's no problem with the high-end office building, but there are some difficulties with the villa. Can we find another place?" Su Dingzhang said candidly.

"Uncle, forget about the villa. I'll look for another place for the office building. Don't trouble yourself." Lin Hao politely declined.

"Lin Hao, we're family. You should look out for the Su family, don't you think?" Su Dingzhang began to play the family card.

"Of course, I will look out for the Su family. There's no doubt about that. Please rest assured, Uncle." Lin Hao responded calmly.

"Lin Hao, how about this? Uncle invites you for dinner tomorrow night, so we can sit down and talk." Su Dingzhang thought of personally talking to Lin Hao.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, but I already have an appointment for tomorrow night." Lin Hao replied.

"Then the day after tomorrow. It's Saturday anyway, either noon or evening works." Su Dingzhang postponed the meeting.

"I'm really sorry, but I have appointments over the weekend. Perhaps we can talk next week." Lin Hao replied calmly.

Next week? It's evident that everyone is inviting him to meals these days to see if they can grab a piece of the pie in the supply chain. If it waits till next week, the opportunity would be long gone.

Su Dingzhang felt a bit frustrated and angry, saying solemnly, "Lin Hao, we're family after all. Let's do this: I'll agree to let out the villa, but please could you introduce us to Red Era Group."

"Uncle, it's really not necessary. I'll handle it another way." Lin Hao said and handed back the phone to Su Dingfang.

After Su Dingfang took over, he directly hung up the call.

Su Dingzhang was left bewildered over there, dark-faced with anger, Su Muyang and Su Muyu, seeing his expression, knew the negotiation had fallen apart, feeling both helpless and frustrated.

"Dad, after the economic promotion conference at the Bureau of Commerce today, I immediately scheduled a discussion with Su Muyu to give the Su family an opportunity. But if they're unwilling, then so be it." Lin Hao said with a bitter face.

"Lin Hao, you're part of the Su family. How can you raise the price on the spot? Is it really necessary to give your uncle such a hard time?" Peng Yunyan wasn't pleased and immediately scolded.

At this moment, Su Muyun and Su Muchen, the two sisters, also came down from the second floor, obviously having heard of Lin Hao's return and wanting to see what's happening.

"Lin Hao, even if we're going to divorce, even if we're not family anymore, you shouldn't make things difficult for your uncle on purpose, right?" Su Muyun immediately chimed in.

All along, Su Muchen, who had always been against Lin Hao, surprisingly spoke up, "Uncle's family is greedy; they want both the benefit and to reap rewards without paying any cost. Lin Hao, you shouldn't help them."

"Mu Chen, why are you siding with this useless person? What he's doing is obviously wrong. After all, isn't Huamao Group the Su family's enterprise, shouldn't we support it?" Peng Yunyan immediately targeted Su Muchen.
