Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

"Mr. Wang."

Xu Yang answered the phone.

Indeed, the caller was none other than Wang Xiaocong.

"Xu Yang, you're impressive. I had no idea that you had invested in Hui'an Pharmaceutical at the beginning of the year, and even became the second largest shareholder."

Wang Xiaocong genuinely didn't know this.

He hadn't done a detailed investigation into Xu Yang, only knowing some superficial, common knowledge.

Xu Yang's investments in Hui'an Pharmaceutical and the Great White Shark gaming company were beyond his awareness.

"Investing in Hui'an Pharmaceutical, I owe it to a high school classmate who works there as a researcher. He mentioned during the New Year that their company was short of funds, but they were developing a potential stomach cancer cure. It seemed very likely to succeed, so after a visit, I felt it could be a success and I invested," Xu Yang briefly explained.

"So that's the case. I have to say, your insight is really sharp. I can't help but admire it."

"To tell you the truth, our Wan Da Investment inspected Hui'an Pharmaceutical at the end of last year, but we deemed it unworthy of investment. We thought the idea of a stomach cancer cure was a bit far-fetched, too much of a pipe dream to create such a medicine."

"You don't know, my dad, when he heard the news that Hui'an Pharmaceutical had developed a cure for stomach cancer and knew that Wan Da Investment hadn't invested, he scolded the general manager of Wan Da Investment something fierce."

Since Xu Yang shared this with him, Wang Xiaocong candidly talked about his family's situation.

"You calling me couldn't have been just to tell me this, right?" Xu Yang asked with a laugh.

"Heh heh, no, it's not that. My dad wants to participate in investing in Hui'an Pharmaceutical. Knowing that you control the investment quota allocation for Hui'an Pharmaceutical and aware of my acquaintance with you, he asked me to call you to see if there's a chance for Wan Da Investment."

Wang Xiaocong's father was also laying out plans in other industries, with the pharmaceutical industry being a crucial part.

A company capable of developing a stomach cancer cure is extremely attractive.

It's not just about the shares; there's also a lot of other value attached.

"Since your dad wants to invest, of course, I welcome it. Wan Da Investment is also top-tier capital. Out of a total ten percent of the shares, let's give you five percent," Xu Yang said, after some thought, deciding to offer Wan Da Investment a five percent stake.

"You're offering Wan Da five percent? Are you sure?" Wang Xiaocong could hardly believe it.

"Of course, why, are you not satisfied?" Xu Yang said with a smile.

"Satisfied, more than satisfied, thank you, Xu Yang!" Wang Xiaocong said excitedly.

With a total of only ten percent of the shares, Xu Yang was giving Wan Da Investment five percent, which was half—it was undoubtedly a huge face-giving gesture. What could he possibly be dissatisfied with?

"Mr. Wang, we are..."

Xu Yang hadn't finished his sentence when Wang Xiaocong interrupted him.

"Xu Yang, stop calling me 'Mr. Wang.' From now on, call me by my name, or like Jiang Yuheng and the others, just call me Old Wang. I consider you a brother!"

In fact, ever since Xu Yang had helped him and Jiang Yuheng, Su Wenbin, purchase the copyright company, earning them a hefty sum, Wang Xiaocong had fully acknowledged Xu Yang as a brother.

He just hadn't had the chance to correct Xu Yang's form of address until now.

This was an opportunity.

Although it was somewhat utilitarian, it was the truth, and there was no need to cover it up.

After all, their acquaintance was initially based on mutual benefit.

If he didn't think Xu Yang was capable and that following Xu Yang's investments could be profitable, Wang Xiaocong, as a wealthy heir and the son of the richest man, would never have taken the initiative to get to know Xu Yang or invited him to his birthday party.

Xu Yang was also acutely aware of this fact, and he was no different.

He knew that being acquainted with Wang Xiaocong could be helpful in many ways.

Take, for example, the last incident with Penguin Pictures obstructing the project "I Am Not the God of Medicine," where Wang Xiaocong stepped in and promptly resolved the issue.

In reality, at their level, while not completely devoid of close friends, many relationships were founded on mutual benefits.

"Alright, Old Wang, since it's like this, don't be shy at all," Xu Yang said.

"Okay, anyway, I appreciate your gesture. I'll speak with my dad about this, he'll be very happy to hear it. We'll talk more another time," Wang Xiaocong said.

"Okay, we'll talk next time," Xu Yang said.

Call ended.

Not long after Xu Yang put down his phone, someone else called.

"Hello," Xu Yang answered the call.

"Mr. Xu, good day, I'm from Ali Investment..."

After that, Xu Yang took several calls, all from the helms of big capital.

There were Ali Investment, Green Pine Capital, Byte Walk Investment, Transverse Investment...

After the calls, Xu Yang reflected for a while and had basically finalized the investment list.

Vanke Investment 5%

Ali Investment 1%

Byte Walk Investment 1%

Transverse Investment 1%

Green Pine Capital 1%

Jiang Yuheng's family investment company 0.5%

Su Wenbin's family investment company 0.5%

Transverse Investment was Shen Yuyan's dad's investment company.

Shen Yuyan's dad was a very low-profile tycoon in Jiangcheng.

Out of respect for Shen Yuyan, Xu Yang had given Transverse Investment a 1% share of the investment.

After finalizing, Xu Yang informed Yang Xin, the general manager of Yang Xin Investment, Ma Yangrong, to notify the others, and have them come to Hui An Pharmaceuticals to sign the agreement tomorrow.

With business settled, Xu Yang went out for lunch when noon arrived.

At the same time.

Liu Yujuan was dining out with four sisters again.

The restaurant they chose was a regular one.

It wasn't like the last time Liu Yujuan treated them to a meal at Yang's Mansion, the top restaurant in Jiangcheng where a meal could cost hundreds of thousands.

Of course, it wasn't Liu Yujuan who was treating this time; it was the sisters who had invited her out.

"The restaurant seems quiet. Is it because the food isn't very good?"

As they entered the restaurant, Liu Yujuan noticed only a few diners and couldn't help questioning the quality of the food.

"Sister Juan, this is a ten-year-old restaurant; the food is actually pretty good. It used to do brisk business, but not long ago, a piece of the ceiling fell off, almost hitting someone. After that, customers became scarce. Now, the restaurant is planning to renovate, and once it's refurbished, business will pick up again," explained their sister, Li Fang.

While talking, the group headed into a private room.

"Li Fang, how do you know all this? Do you come here often, or do you know the owner?" Liu Yujuan looked at Li Fang, who seemed quite familiar with the place.

"Sister Juan, you guessed right. I know the owner. He told me about it. In fact, we invited you here today because we wanted to discuss something with you," Li Fang said with a smile.

"What is it?" Liu Yujuan asked.

"The restaurant owner wants to renovate but has his funds tied up in stocks, and he's been caught in a downturn. He believes the stock will rise in the future and doesn't want to sell at a loss, so he's seeking loans from acquaintances for the renovation."

"His business was quite lucrative before, and he's not worried about not making a profit. He's looking to borrow for a year and is offering 50% interest."

"The few of us sisters have borrowed some money from relatives and friends to lend to the owner. It's not every day you get the chance to make a 50% return in a year."

"So, we called you here to share this investment opportunity and see if you're willing to lend money to the owner."

"We're all sisters here and if there's money to be made, we should do it together," added Li Fang, summarizing the opportunity.
