Chapter 578: Mutual Exploitation, with Ulterior Motives
After hearing this, Jiang Ning understood what he meant.
"My godfather invited me in because you want me to deal with them, right?" Jiang Ning said straight to the point.
"Hahaha, you're quite smart!" Ruan Xinghan said, "Of course, I'm just trying to scare them by keeping you by my side to give them some threat."
"After all, you are still General Lowe's good brother. No matter your personal ability or the background behind you, they will be wary of you!"
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, but cursed in his heart: "Old fox, you really use me as a good chess piece!"
"Oh!" Jiang Ning suddenly sighed, shook his head, stood up and looked at the bustling night scene outside the window, seeming to be worried about something.
"Jiang Ning, just say whatever you want to say. There are no outsiders here!" Ruan Xinghan said.
"Foster father, you want me to make a show of force, that's true, but this method can only last for a while!" Jiang Ning said, "People's ambitions are constantly growing. Since they have already decided to overthrow you, the best way is to reshuffle the cards and establish new vassal states to protect you. If you don't destroy them now, they will always be a threat to you!"
Ruan Xinghan naturally understood this principle. He sighed and said, "I would like to do that, but these seven people are very powerful now. If I take action, they will unite and form alliances, and it will be very difficult for me."
From what Jiang Ning heard, he felt that Ruan Xinghan was still the strongest among them.
However, he was afraid that once he took action, those princes would unite and he would no longer be their match.
"Defeat them one by one!" Jiang Ning said, "Get rid of the top leader at lightning speed!"
"How easy is that!" Ruan Xinghan sighed.
"Maybe I can give it a try!" Jiang Ning smiled slightly.
"Oh?" Ruan Xinghan looked at Jiang Ning expectantly, but pretended to be concerned and said, "Jiang Ning, this is not a joke. You just became my son, and I don't want anything to happen to you."
"Godfather, you took me in because you want me to do something!" Jiang Ning said bluntly, "How about I help you deal with those ignorant guys?"
Ruan Xinghan's eyes lit up; this was exactly what he wanted to hear.
Sure enough, accepting Jiang Ning was the right choice. This guy claimed to be smart, but in fact, it was just a clever trick of youthful vigor.
Ruan Xinghan pretended to be sad and said, "Jiang Ning, what you said is really hurtful. We are not just a relationship of use! I really treat you as my own son!"
As he spoke, he pointed to a mural on the wall, which contained a photo of their entire family.
"Every girl here is an elite in our family. If you like any of them, tell your foster father and I'll let her marry you. Then we'll be even closer!"
"Hahaha, that's not necessary!"
Jiang Ning smiled and cursed in his heart.
"Old man, do you really think I'm one of those brainless young men? Just because you give me a woman, I have to be grateful and work hard for you? It seems that you are even more naive than me!"
"Godfather, I can help you deal with those guys, but I also have a condition. I wonder if you can satisfy it?" Jiang Ning said.
"you say!"
"I want to take back all the mining areas from them and contract them myself!" Jiang Ning said, "Will you object?"
"what?"
Ruan Xinghan was very surprised.
This kid has a really big appetite!
You should know that Myanmar's mining areas account for more than half of the country's mining areas, and its raw jade output accounts for 80% of the country's total.
He actually wants to take over such a huge industry?
Do you have this ability?
"Jiang Ning, this is not a small matter. I think we need to take a long-term view." Ruan Xinghan said, "You can try to contract a few small mining areas first to practice..."
"No need!" Jiang Ning said firmly.
In his previous life, he had a jewelry master named Quinn under him who helped him manage the jade business, and he was also very knowledgeable about the jade business.
Quinn was once a Tibetan monk, and later joined Jiang Ning's team. He had a unique talent for judging jade, so Jiang Ning also learned a lot of jade knowledge from him.
With the experience from the previous life, managing the jade business in this life is not a problem.
As for the money from contracting the jade mining area, the role of the gold mine becomes very obvious at this time.
At present, gold mining is becoming more and more smooth, and Jiangning's wealth is accumulating faster and faster. With Jiangning's current financial resources, even if it is impossible to contract all the mining areas, it can still contract most of them.
If we can get a few more blank checks, we can get them all.
"If my godfather agrees to this condition, I will help him deal with all those who disobey me!" Jiang Ning said, "In addition, all the mining areas will give him the dividends from previous years, no more and no less!"
A sinister gleam flashed across Ruan Xinghan's eyes.
He underestimated Jiang Ning at first, but now he found that this young man was not as simple as he imagined. He was very ambitious and decisive in doing things.
After all, Ruan Xinghan still didn't trust Jiang Ning at all.
Even if Jiang Ning could deal with those disobedient guys, all the mining areas would be contracted by Jiang Ning, and he would be the only one in power, which would be even more dangerous.
"Jiang Ning, we are now father and son. What's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours!" Ruan Xinghan began to play the emotional card: "If you really want to contract the mining area, that's fine. You can take back the mining area in my name, and then I will hand over all the mining areas to you to manage!"
This sounds good, but in fact, it is a trap.
In other words, Ruan Xinghan wanted Jiang Ning to fight desperately to take back the mining area, but he would hold the power of the mining area, and then, Jiang Ning had to manage the mining area for him and work for him.
Jiang Ning naturally understood what he meant.
So you, old man, want to squeeze every last drop of blood out of me!
However, Jiang Ning also has his own plans.
If Ruan Xinghan disagrees, Jiang Ning will have no legitimate reason to deal with those guys, and it will not be easy to contract the mining area.
Therefore, he had to stabilize Ruan Xinghan first.
"My godfather said, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours. So let me deal with those guys first, and then ask them to hand over the transfer rights of the mining area, and finally you sign, OK?"
"Hahaha, very good, very good!" Ruan Xinghan laughed with satisfaction: "But you must be careful! If you can't handle those guys, run away quickly. By the way, in order to avoid our base camp being exposed, I will not send you any helpers, you need to cheer up on your own!"
As he spoke, he patted Jiang Ning on the shoulder and said, "This is the first thing you do after joining my family. If you do it well, you will secure your position as a descendant of my Ruan family, and I, Ruan Xinghan, will also include you in the ranks of heirs. Jiang Ning, I am optimistic about you! Come on!"
