Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 709 - 710 The Lion’s Big Demand
"Mr. Hao Jian, please enjoy the tea." At this moment, Hua Yunfei had already brewed a pot of hot tea for Hao Jian and even took the initiative to pour a cup, respectfully placing it in front of Hao Jian.
"Brothers, have some tea." Then, with a fawning manner, he served Tie Shan and his wife as well. It couldn't be helped, now that Tie Shan had made connection with such an influential figure, he became untouchable even to him; he could only try to curry favor this way.
Tie Shan and his wife were stunned as they accepted the teacups, wondering in shock. Was Jiang Biehe being overly courteous now?
Taking the tea, Hao Jian brought it to his lips for a sip, but then, his eyes suddenly flashed coldly, and the cup in his hand shook, splashing the tea without warning onto Jiang Biehe's face.
The somewhat scalding water splashed on Jiang Biehe's face, causing his cheeks to sting slightly, but he didn't dare to dodge or wipe it away.
At this point, everyone was shocked, seemingly not expecting Hao Jian to suddenly make a move.
"Do you think you can settle this matter with just a pot of tea?" Hao Jian sneered, well aware that Jiang Biehe was intending to make peace, yet he refused to give him the opportunity.
If he could be appeased so easily, would he still be Hao Jian?
"Of course not." Jiang Biehe showed a bitter expression, sincerely believing that maybe this gesture could cool Hao Jian's anger and minimize the problem, but he had overestimated his own intelligence and underestimated Hao Jian's temper.
Hua Yunfei couldn't help but gape in shock; in his eyes, Jiang Biehe was a very tough and domineering man. Wherever he went, he was flattered by a crowd of people. When had he ever been so spineless as he was now?
But intuition told Hua Yunfei that it was better for him to keep silent. If even Jiang Biehe couldn't provoke this man, it went without saying for him.
Hua Yunfei cursed in his heart, how could Tie Shan know such an incredible character? It was unbelievable.
Hao Jian let out a cold laugh, "Now you are being polite, but how did you bully my brother when he came here before? Huh?"
"I didn't know he was your brother. If I had known, even with a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to bully him," Jiang Biehe hastily apologized, showing a submissive demeanor, no longer displaying his previous arrogance and insolence.
"Tell me, how should we settle this? You destroyed my brother's house and nearly killed my sister-in-law and nephew. What should I do with you?" Hao Jian asked with a cold face.
"This... I won't demolish his house anymore. Your brother can live there as long as he likes, and I won't send anyone to disturb you again," Jiang Biehe pleaded, distressed. Although letting Tie Shan's house remain there affected the neighborhood's scenery, it couldn't be helped; after all, who made Tie Shan acquainted with Hao Jian?
Upon hearing this, Tie Shan and Aqing felt a surge of joy. Was the matter solved just like this?
Just as Tie Shan was about to speak, Hao Jian cut him off.
"Is that it?" Hao Jian asked, frowning, clearly dissatisfied.
Jiang Biehe knew the issue wouldn't be resolved so easily and said, "Additionally, I will offer your brother a sum of money as an apology."
"What else?" Hao Jian still wasn't ready to let it go.
Jiang Biehe gritted his teeth, "Also, I'll still compensate you for the demolition at thirty thousand yuan per square meter!"
Upon these words, Tie Shan and his wife were so excited they almost jumped up. Thirty thousand a square meter was more expensive than city houses, a sixfold increase over the original price – it was like a dream.
"What else?" But Hao Jian continued to speak, clearly intending to extort more from Jiang Biehe.
Jiang Biehe truly felt like crying. Wasn't this guy being too greedy? He had already promised two huge sums of money, and he was still not satisfied?
Jiang Biehe regretted why he had troubled Tie Shan in the first place. Wouldn't it have been simpler to just give him the money? There would have been no trouble then.
Thinking this, Jiang Biehe began to resent Hua Yunfei, because it was Hua Yunfei who didn't get along with Tie Shan, hence deliberately withholding his demolition compensation.
Originally, Jiang Biehe thought, after all, it was saving him money, so just withholding it was fine, convincing himself that Tie Shan, that poor wretch, wouldn't dare to make a fuss.
But in the end, not only did he not save money, he also suffered a great loss due to it.
And now, Hao Jian still wasn't satisfied. Who knew when his bottomless pit would be filled? With this thought, Jiang Biehe wished he could flay Hua Yunfei alive. If it weren't for Hua Yunfei stirring up trouble, would he have needed to cross swords with Hao Jian?
"Once my real estate project is completed, I will give your brother the largest house for free!" Jiang Biehe said resolutely.
Hearing this, Tie Shan wished he could immediately leap up and jump for joy. Not only was he getting money for nothing but also a free house. Wasn't this like a pie falling from the sky?
"Not just one apartment, but an entire building!" However, at this moment, Hao Jian made a bold demand.
"Hss..." Upon hearing this, Tie Shan and his wife sharply inhaled a breath of cold air. They thought one apartment was already quite a boon, but now Hao Jian was so greedy that he directly wanted a whole building?
That was an entire building, wasn't it? What did that imply? It meant billions were at stake there! Had the couple suddenly become billionaires just like that? Both felt dizzy and disoriented.
"Mr. Hao Jian, isn't this going too far?" Jiang Biehe was on the verge of tears; losing several billion just like that, how could he not feel the pain?
He hadn't even earned the money back yet and was already several billion in the hole? Jiang Biehe felt utterly devastated.
"Too far? Was it not 'too far' when you had a bulldozer knock down my brother's house? Fine then, since it's been leveled by you and is uninhabitable, might as well give it to you. Once your construction is completed, give my brother a building, and we'll call this matter settled," Hao Jian said emotionlessly, and then gave Jiang Biehe a sinister look: "Or are you saying that my nephew and sister-in-law's lives aren't worth that much?"
"No, of course not." Jiang Biehe's face was etched with misery. Who had he provoked to deserve this? Why had he offended such a fearsome god of death?
"So, will you compensate or not?" Hao Jian asked coldly, his words laden with a strong warning.
"I will compensate, certainly I will!" Jiang Biehe felt like he was at death's door, forced into a corner by Hao Jian with no choice but to agree to the compensation. Although he verbally agreed, he was bleeding inside. This was agony; to lose billions over a measly few million, this deal was a colossal loss indeed.
At that point, Jiang Biehe genuinely harbored thoughts of murdering Hua Yunfei. It was all because Hua Yunfei had been whispering in his ear, leading him to disregard Tie Shan.
But now, here they were—with a major god brought to his doorstep. If he managed to anger this deity, it would mean, at minimum, financial ruin, or at worst, the destruction of his household and loss of life.
"Empty words prove nothing, draw up a contract and sign it," Hao Jian commanded Jiang Biehe.
Jiang Biehe did not dare to delay. He turned around and snarled at Hua Yunfei: "What the hell are you still standing around for? Hurry up and print out the contract!"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Scared out of his wits, Hua Yunfei quickly adopted a submissive demeanor, not daring to irritate Jiang Biehe any further.

"Moreover, those gatekeepers of yours seemed quite arrogant as well. When I arrived, they even dared to block my path," Hao Jian mentioned casually with a cold smirk, referring to Skinny and others.
Tie Shan and his wife felt a jolt in their hearts. They had thought that Hao Jian would let Skinny and the others off, but the real masterstroke was here!
That was truly masterful. They wouldn't need to lift a finger; Jiang Biehe himself would take care of those thugs for them.
They realized that there might be an interesting scene to witness in a bit.
Jiang Biehe immediately understood Hao Jian's intention. He approached his desk and called Skinny: "You have one minute to get out here!"
Then, he hung up the phone with a 'click'.
"Boss, why is the chairman so angry?" Downstairs, Skinny's buddies heard Jiang Biehe's roaring voice over the phone and couldn't help feeling anxious.
"Do you need to ask? It's definitely those bastards who upset the chairman. Damn it, I knew that guy had no good intentions. Brothers, grab your weapons; it's time to go teach them a lesson!" Skinny said fiercely, fuming inside.
He had thought that Hao Jian seemed to know how to handle things and would be compliant, but who knew that Hao Jian would end up upsetting Jiang Biehe.
And when Skinny and his gang had all picked up their weapons and arrived upstairs, they were stunned to see Jiang Biehe and Hao Jian sitting together, drinking tea. They were completely baffled. Wasn't this supposed to be a confrontation?
"Oh, what's this? Looking to fight someone?" Hao Jian asked mockingly, exuding an air of superiority.
Seeing Hao Jian like that, Skinny immediately got upset and bellowed, "You mangy mongrel, what did you say? Say it again, and I'll kill you in a minute!"
"Who do you think you're going to kill? Shut your mouth!" Jiang Biehe turned his anger on Skinny, furiously scolding him. He had just barely come to an understanding with Hao Jian, and here was Skinny shouting at Hao Jian right away. What if that made Hao Jian angry again, and he decided to extort Jiang Biehe for another sum?
"Boss, this..." Skinny was dumbfounded. Jiang Biehe was actually scolding them for this kid? Who was this guy, that Jiang Biehe would go so far for him?
"What 'this'? Throw down your weapons and come greet Mr. Hao Jian properly!" Jiang Biehe commanded Skinny, his expression dark and annoyed. These idiots really had no clue. Couldn't they see that he had to treat this guy with courtesy?
Skinny and the others could see that, but they just couldn't understand why. What gave this sycophantic fellow the right to be so valued by Jiang Biehe?
"Mr. Hao Jian?" Skinny and the others were all stunned, unable to grasp the situation for a moment.
"No need for greetings, just kneel," Hao Jian said with a yawn, speaking dismissively.
