The weather in the East China Sea is getting colder and colder, and the time for the New Year is approaching in a blink of an eye.

Under a series of blows, the stock price of Haohan Group was almost halved, and retail investors in the stock market began to sell frantically, but most of them could not be sold.

Competitors did not buy the bottom at this time, and the more investors could not sell, the more the stock price would fall.

They are waiting, waiting until the Zeng family can't survive, and waiting until the stock price can't be lower. Just like a wolf pack hunting, it only chases and intercepts in all directions, dragging the prey to exhaustion or forcing the prey off the cliff, and only then does the fangs of Sensen be exposed.

Zeng Qinghua saw it in his eyes, he didn't care too much about the madness of retail investors, what he cared about most was that those major shareholders couldn't survive. Once the major shareholders start selling, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Although most of the shares are concentrated in the hands of the Zeng family themselves, as long as the Zeng family does not sell, Haohan Group will still not lose control. However, if such a big stall of Haohan Group continues to deteriorate, the group's funds will become more and more tight, and sooner or later the capital chain will be broken, and the only outcome at that time will be that Haohan Group will go bankrupt, and the shares in the hands of the Zeng family will become worthless.

The decline in the stock market has led to the stagnation of many of its subsidiary projects, and the group's capital development has shown signs of shortage.

I thought that the two pharmaceutical factories could resume production soon after environmental rectification, but more than a month has passed, rectification and rectification, more and more problems, as a company more or less have some non-compliance with the regulations, eggs are picky, no ballast, I don't know when to resume production. The most terrible thing is that the audit and tax departments also intervened at this time, which made the overwhelmed Zeng family even worse.

Zeng Qinghua finally realized the seriousness of the matter, if it continues like this, the Zeng family will collapse sooner or later.

Zeng Qinghua has sold two plots of land ready for commercial development and laid off some employees in its subsidiaries, but the large group companies are like a bottomless pit, devouring a lot of money every day, and this method is to cure the symptoms rather than the root cause.

The shortage of funds caused by the fall of stocks and the failure of the political game are the root of the problem, and no amount of money will last long without solving these two problems.

But he has no choice, and now the bank is definitely unwilling to lend money in the situation of Haohan Group, and the only way can only be to sell assets, hoping to carry one more day and exchange time for space.

The Zeng family has many buildings and commercial entities in the East China Sea and several nearby provinces, most of which are the private property of the Zeng family, and only by selling some of them can they barely survive this year.

These are the belongings that the old man has worked hard all his life, and he doesn't dare to sell them privately.

When he told the old man lying on the hospital bed about this idea, he was scolded bloody. Those fixed assets are relied on by the descendants of the Zeng family to eat on their backs, and the old man does not agree to sell them.

After coming to power, his ambition was instantly extinguished by the ruthless reality, and he sometimes even thought that if he had united with the second child from the beginning, maybe things would not have reached this point.

Walking into Noah's Ark, Zeng Qinghua was shocked by the scene here, this small Internet company that was already in danger of going bankrupt at any time and had never taken it to heart turned out to be the opposite of the current situation of Haohan Group.

From top to bottom in Haohan Group, everyone is panicking, and every employee here is buried in their work.

He knew that Zeng Yaqian had received a foreign investment not long ago, but he didn't expect that when the vast group was in danger, it was thriving.

Zeng Yaqian looked at Zeng Qinghua lightly, she didn't have a good impression of the people of the Zeng family, except for her grandfather.

"Yaqian, you are a smart person, don't say a lot of uncles, as a member of the Zeng family, the old man loves you the most, when the Zeng family is in danger, I hope you can come forward to save the Zeng family."

Zeng Yaqian smiled slightly, "How to save"?

Zeng Qinghua was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, "Get the support of the Meng family"!

Zeng Yaqian's face was calm, and she still smiled: "How to get it"?

Zeng Qinghua looked at Zeng Yaqian directly, "Meng Haoran has always been devoted to you, he is the ironclad heir of the Meng family, if you can marry him, things will take a big turn."

Zeng Yaqian giggled, "Sell my happiness in exchange for the Zeng family's survival"?

Zeng Qinghua frowned, "Yaqian, Meng Haoran is both talented and beautiful, and he is Meng Yu's only son, enough to be worthy of you, how can he sell your happiness."

"Why do you think I'll say yes"?

"Yaqian, you couldn't let go of Lu Shanmin before, but now his wolf ambition is obvious, and the villain's true face has been exposed. Now that there is no psychological bondage, why can't you accept Meng Haoran?"

Zeng Yaqian sneered, "Uncle, I thought you were more courageous than Zeng Qingwen, but I didn't expect you to be as shameless as him."

Zeng Qinghua's face was flushed, "You are a member of the Zeng family, shouldn't you contribute to the Zeng family?" Zeng Qinghua reprimanded.

Zeng Yaqian snorted coldly, "You have to rely on the women in the seller to survive, I think that sooner or later the country laid down by my grandfather will be defeated in the hands of your good sons."

Seeing Zeng Qinghua leave in shame, Zeng Yaqian laughed, and her eyes were slightly red when she laughed at the end.

Growing up in a wealthy family, I witnessed intrigue and weak family affection. Since her father's derailment, she walked lonely like a walking corpse, until she met Lu Shanmin, she realized that there was still warmth in the world beyond the shackles of interests, and her lonely heart finally found a harbor to dock.

She knew that it would be difficult to be with her as Lu Shanmin, so she guided Lu Shanmin step by step, so she gritted her teeth and built Noah's Ark under pressure, so that one day she could dock in that harbor.

But this harbor disappeared suddenly, she didn't want to believe it, let alone believe it, if it was true, then there was anything else in this world that could be trusted, so what was the point of her living in this world.

She didn't believe that Lu Shanmin would betray her because of interests.

During this time, she worked like crazy, filling her schedule and trying not to let herself think about it. Every night when I go to bed, I have to repeat the words 'he's not like this, I have to trust him' to barely fall asleep.

、、、、、、

Walking on the campus of the Finance College, Lu Shanmin felt uneasy in his heart, and he had not listened to the old professor's class for a long time, on the one hand, because he was very busy some time ago, and more importantly, because he didn't know how to face the old professor.

During class, Guan Yue still greeted him with a smile, and it seemed that she didn't know what happened between him and Yaqian. With Yaqian's character, she wouldn't talk about these things casually.

After listening to a class, Lu Shanmin didn't leave, and there were only two people left in the classroom: him and the old professor.

The old professor didn't speak, and looked at Lu Shanmin with a pair of eyes.

Lu Shanmin lowered his head, not daring to face the old professor's gaze, and had mixed feelings in his heart. The things of this time can be concealed from Guan Yue, but it is impossible to hide from the old professor.

The old professor's eyes were very complicated, "I heard that your business is getting bigger and bigger"?

"I heard that when the building materials city opened, half of the rich people in Parkway District went"?

"I heard that you have become the president of the Parkway Building Materials Industry Association"?

Lu Shanmin lowered his head and didn't know how to reply.

"Haohan Group has suffered such a big blow, as a person close to Yaqian, your business has not only not been affected, but has become famous in Parkway District, and business has begun to spread all over the East China Sea, can you solve the doubts of an old man like me?"

Lu Shanmin raised his head, his eyes were full of pain, "Old professor, since you have guessed everything, why bother asking!"

"Slap", the old professor slapped the desk and said angrily: "I want to hear you say it yourself."

Lu Shanmin gritted his teeth, his head was in chaos, thinking of the old professor's ardent expectations, thinking of the old professor's respectful teaching, he must be very sad now, he must be very disappointed. But what can he do, he promised Old Man Zeng that he wants to protect Yaqian, and all the pain and pain must be hidden.

"That's right, I betrayed Yaqian and took refuge with the enemies of the Zeng family."

Ma Guodong's face was pale, although he had already guessed it, but when he heard Lu Shanmin say it himself, his head was still buzzing with anger.

"Why"?

Lu Shanmin stood up, his body trembling slightly, "For money, for survival." If I don't do this, the building materials city will not be able to open, and the most profitable bars and KTV on Zhigang Avenue will not be able to get my hands on it, and they can bring the Zeng family to death, if I don't take refuge in them, why should I live."

Ma Guodong looked at Lu Shanmin dumbfounded, is this still the simple mountain man he was at the beginning?

He couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it.

"Tell me you have a hard time".

"I don't!" Lu Shanmin said categorically.

Ma Guodong stood there stunned, and muttered slowly after a long time.

"I saw Yaqian two days ago, she was thin and haggard. ”

Ma Guodong slowly walked towards the door of the classroom, "She asked me to tell you, she believes in you."

Lu Shanmin sat on the chair in a gloomy manner, his heart was so painful that he couldn't breathe, the sky would descend on the people, he must first suffer his mind, work his muscles and hard, starve his body and skin, and empty his body、、、、、, this feeling is too uncomfortable.

After sitting in the classroom for a long time, I found a familiar figure standing at the door of the classroom.

"How did you get here"?

Ye Zixuan held a math textbook in her arms and walked straight to Lu Shanmin and sat down.

"You bad student, you don't answer your calls, do you want to skip class all the time and run away"?

Lu Shanmin looked at Ye Zixuan's clean face and was full of sadness, "Zixuan, I don't want to hurt you." ”

Ye Zixuan pursed her mouth, "You're not hurting me, you're hurting yourself."

Lu Shanmin smiled bitterly, "I'm not as good as you think, I don't deserve you like this."

Ye Zixuan's big watery eyes looked at Lu Shanmin, her eyes were very clear and bright, as if she could cleanse all the filth and go straight to the depths of her heart.

"Hehe, have you forgotten that I have special abilities? I can see through the good guys and bad guys at a glance, I can't be mistaken, you are a good guy."

As he spoke, he opened the math textbook and said to himself: "Don't be a peacock, thinking that every girl will give you a hug, I just don't want to give up halfway."
