After exchanging pleasantries with three people, Li Yun finally spoke about the main topic.
"I know you're busy, so I'll be brief. I invited you here today for two reasons."
"Go ahead, President Li."
The three sat up straight, waiting for Li Yun to continue.
"The first reason is to thank you for helping me handle the Gu family."
In the presence of Gu Yanran, Li Yun had no qualms about admitting that he had orchestrated the attacks against the Gu family.
Although she already knew what had happened, hearing it directly from Li Yun, especially to her face, was something else.
Gu Yanran felt very uncomfortable hearing this.
Li Yun wanted to make it clear to her the consequences of challenging him.
He didn't need to lift a finger; just by saying a word, there would be someone willing to help him deal with the Gu family.
Gu Wu and the others didn't understand why Li Yun was mentioning this in front of Gu Yanran.
However, they all just exchanged pleasantries, not daring to take credit.
As for the Gu family's plans, it was clear that they wanted Gu Yanran to serve as a link between the Gu family and Li Yun.
If Gu Yanran took a step further and became Li Yun's woman, whispering in his ear to take revenge on them, they would be in trouble.
After all, there was nothing more powerful in this world than a word spoken in bed.
Li Yun, unaware of their thoughts, continued: "The conflicts between the Gu family and mine have been completely resolved, so I hope they won't cause any more problems for the Gu family."
"Don't worry, President Li. Our Gu family will immediately resume cooperation with the Gus."
"Our Yang family has always been a partner of the Gu family. We wouldn't dare cause any trouble."
"Our Chen family may need the help of the Gu family in the future. We'll accelerate our cooperation with them."
Gu Wu and the others, seeing that Li Yun had put aside his confrontation with the Gu family and considering the possibility that Gu Yanran might become his woman, immediately changed their attitude, expressing their willingness to continue collaborating with the Gu family.
Li Yun didn't have a very favorable impression of these capricious opportunists.
In the original story, these three families faithfully followed the Li family, but after Mo Bufan's blows to the Lis, and some benefits thrown by Mo Bufan, they quickly betrayed the Lis and joined Mo Bufan to confront them.
Naturally, Li Yun didn't plan to let them go.
But for now, he had no intention of acting against them.
The combined forces of these three families were not smaller than the Li family, and Li Yun didn't want to complicate things while dealing with Mo Bufan.
So why not lure them in and use them against Mo Bufan?
It would be best to let them fight among themselves and weaken each other, before dealing with them.
"There is another important reason I invited you," Li Yun continued. "I don't know if you'd be interested in knowing."
"What is it, President Li?" asked Chen Tianfang cautiously.
Li Yun looked at them and said, "According to the information I have, there is a buried gold mine on Mount Wujishan, outside Jinling city. I don't know the exact amount, but there is at least a hundred tons. Would you be interested?"
"A gold mine?"
"A hundred tons?"
The three jumped up in surprise, taking deep breaths.
A hundred tons of gold meant hundreds of billions in profit, possibly even billions.
And besides, this project would be a safe and profitable investment.
It was truly a gold mountain!
"President Li, are you joking with us?" Gu Wu asked nervously, his voice trembling.
If this was true, it would indeed be like owning a gold mountain.
"President Gu, do you think I invited you just to joke around?"
In the original story, Mo Bufan used this gold mine to buy these three people and have them face off against the Li family.
Who knows what luck Mo Bufan had to find a gold mountain?
Now that Li Yun knew about it, he naturally wanted to make the best use of it.
It would be a sharp sword against Mo Bufan, wielded by these three families.
Hearing the certainty in Li Yun's voice, the three realized he wasn't joking.
"What is your proposal, President Li?"
"Shared happiness is double happiness. We, the four largest families in Jinling, should not enjoy good opportunities alone. We should share them."
"Do you really want to share it with us, President Li?"
This was not a small business. Even with just a 10% stake, the profits would be in the tens or hundreds of billions.
To say they weren't interested would be a lie. Since Li Yun mentioned it, they were completely intrigued.
"Of course. I propose we form a joint venture between our four families to exploit this mine. What do you think?"
"We will follow your instructions, President Li. And we thank you for thinking of us for this big business."
"That's right, President Li. Thank you so much for considering us."
Gu Wu and the others praised Li Yun.
I hope that when they discover that this project will not only fail to make them money but will also bring them endless problems, they can still smile.
After some discussions, they decided to form a joint venture to manage the mine, leaving the details to their subordinates.
After a few more words, Li Yun, tired of the flattery, dismissed the three.
Li Yun immediately called for a meeting of senior executives from Kaiyang Group.
At a large meeting table, dozens of people sat, all department managers and branch directors of Kaiyang Group.
In total, there were more than thirty people, both men and women.
Seeing so many people listening to him with respect, Li Yun felt quite satisfied.
In his past life, Li Yun had only been a small department supervisor, with no right to attend meetings like this.
While speaking, he didn't forget to use his [Villain Eyes] to assess their skills and loyalty.
Security chief Zhao Hongwu had a loyalty of 88%. Although not absolutely loyal, it was quite good.
R&D chief Luoyang had a loyalty of 85%. That was also acceptable.
Logistics chief Li Jia had a loyalty of 65%. This guy, although a distant relative of the Lis, was less loyal than a stranger. Li Yun was already thinking of getting rid of him.
Century Hotel manager Wang Wenlong had a loyalty of 51%. Barely better than a traitor. For Li Yun, he was already sentenced.
Overall, these middle and senior leaders had a high level of loyalty.
After all, they had been promoted by Li Yun and had been with him for many years. Except for a few, most were quite loyal to Kaiyang Group and to him.
