Rebirth of the Evil Mother-In-Law

Chapter 27 – He Was So Angry that He Smashed The Cellphone Again (1)

After Zhong Yi had picked up a few sets, Fang JunRong made a call and had them send the dresses over as soon as possible.

Li WangJin knocked on her door not too long after she went back into her room.

Fang JunRong opened up the door and Li WangJin walked in naturally. She could smell the very subtle hint of perfume on him and figured that he must have already met up with Jiang YaGe’s aunt, Wang SiXian. She was the one who had planned it after all.

The truth was she didn’t even need to do much. All she needed to do was to have someone mention two things in front of Wang SiXian — “Li WangJin’s white moonlight was Wang SiEr” and “Li WangJin’s relationship with his wife had gotten worse”.

Had she not asked for it, He Ming wouldn’t have brought up Wang SiXian randomly.

As for Wang SiXian herself, she was going through a rough patch overseas. Once she heard of this life-saving straw, no way she’d like it slipped by. After all, didn’t she use her looks and pretend to be infatuated to get to Li WangJin in her previous life?

Fang JunRong suppressed her sense of disgust that was bubbling up and asked in a nonchalant tone, “What is it?”

Li WangJin paused for a little but, then he quickly put on his normal, gentle smile. “How much money do we have on the books that we can spend right now?”

“Oh, probably $7B ~ $8B,” said Fang JunRong. There would have been more, but she had been actively purchasing gold and jewelries etc. lately and used up some of them.

Li WangJin frowned a little. That’s less than he had expected. He thought there would be at least over $10B.

“You wanted to buy more antiques and paintings? Haven’t you bought a lot this year already? They must add up to at least tens of billions by now,” said Fang JunRong.

Li WangJin’s heart dropped a little. He didn’t think Fang JunRong would pay attention to that. After his face froze up for a while, he recovered quickly and said, “Most of my collection were those by Xu FangWeng. His artworks’ value has only been going up and up internationally as of late. It’s really a kind of investment. When we sell them later, we’d make more than we’d otherwise on the stock market.

He said it with such righteousness as though he was merely making money for their family.

“You have heard of ‘Snow by the River” by Xu FangWeng, right? I have already gotten hold of the original buyer. He needs cash for his family business and has the intention to sell it. He has a few other well-known paintings that he was interested in parting with as well. They add up to about $1.5B. It’s not a small amount so I wanted to talk to you first.”

If it was just tens of millions, then he wouldn’t bother talking to her about, but this was a large amount. He’d need her approval first.

Fang JunRong just wanted to laugh out loud. She looked down and said, “You know, we can’t just spend all the cash that we have. We should at least save some for future investments, like if we want to bid for land for development.”

“I know.” Li WangJin had already had it all thought out before he approached Fang JunRong. “I figured that our company has its own investments in the stock market as well. We can sell some of the stocks owned by the company for cash. Then we only need to add in a little bit more cash from the company.”

Of course, that was a great idea to Fang JunRong. If they don’t sell them, they’d have to split them 50/50 during their divorce. If they sell them now, the money would end up hers. It’s a win-win for her. As much as she loved the idea, she put on a frown and a concerned look.

“That’s a lot of risk. I don’t think we should do that.” She shook her head and looked very determined.

Li WangJin continued to try and convince her and brought up every point that he could think of. Finally, he promised that he’d take out an additional $500 million to buy some properties before Fang JunRong “reluctantly” agreed.

When Fang JunRong finally nodded, Li WangJin was exhausted. He would only comfort himself by thinking that even though his wife got $500 million, he’d have made $1.5B. Anyway one looked at it, he was the one who came out ahead.

He didn’t want to drag it out in case Fang JunRong changed her mind and went to arrange for a transaction as soon as he had obtained Fang JunRong’s approval.
