Chapter: 2632

Leaf Chen hung up the phone and relaxed his mouth slightly.

Winter Snow was just not around in Jinling, so this matter didn't seem that urgent either.

If that's the case, let's strictly monitor Su Shoude and Steve together, see what they're up to, especially Su Shoude. What kind of medicine is he selling in his gourd?

However, Leaf Chen wouldn't give them too much time, allowing them to directly vanish into thin air within three days.

At this point, Chen Zeqi saw Leaf Chen hang up the phone and hurriedly asked, "Young master, Miss Winter Snow went to Hong Kong?"

"Yes." Leaf Chen smiled slightly: "It's quite convenient, she just left in the morning."

Chen Zeqi asked again: "When are you planning to take action against Su Shoude and Steve?"

Leaf Chen thought for a moment before speaking: "Just these two days, let's observe them closely and see what they're up to."

As he spoke, Leaf Chen instructed further: "Old Chen, your connections in Jinling are the widest. You must keep a close eye on them, no matter where they go or who they meet, report it back to me immediately!"

"Of course, don't worry," Chen Zeqi said without hesitation. "I'll arrange it right away!"

Leaf Chen nodded slightly, looking a bit regretful as he spoke: "Why did both of them not choose to stay at your hotel?"

Chen Zeqi laughed: "Well, before Walt disappeared, he was staying at the Jinling International Hotel, and his father went there to live. As for Su Shoude, the Su family is very clear that this is the industry of the Ye family's territory, so how could he possibly come here to set up a business?"

Leaf Chen asked curiously: "The Su family has such a large fortune, why didn't they set up any businesses in Jinling themselves?"

Chen Zeqi shook his head and said: "The Su family had an agreement with the Ye family many years ago. They mutually agreed on their respective commercial territories. The Su family chose which cities to invest in, and the Ye family would not invest there. It's the same for the Ye family; Jinling is within the scope of the Ye family's territory, so the Su family didn't set up businesses here."

Leaf Chen asked him: "What was the basis for dividing the commercial territories?"

Chen Zeqi said: "It was based on the face-to-face agreement between your grandfather and Su Chengfeng. After all, the two families are roughly equally matched in terms of strength, and their business is spread out everywhere. If they were to compete in every city, it would be a never-ending battle, especially in first-tier cities where competition is fierce. So, they secretly agreed on a certain scope, such as the provincial capitals in southeastern provinces, with Jinling belonging to the Ye family and Suzhang to the Su family."

"Ultimately, it was the Su family's influence that was stronger," he said. "At the time of dividing commercial territories, Suzhang had all sorts of data clearly superior to Jinling. So, the Su family took Suzhang away first and left Jinling for the Ye family."

"I understand now," Leaf Chen nodded slightly, then asked again: "Why didn't Wu Donghai, as the richest man in Suzhang, have any connection with the Su family?"

Chen Zeqi laughed: "You see, the Song family is the richest family in Jinling, and they don't have any connection with the Ye family."

"Ah, and Chen Zeqi continued to explain: 'In fact, the Su family's and Ye family's territory divisions were mainly aimed at avoiding conflicts between them, which was equivalent to a gentleman's agreement.'"

"But, local families are generally deeply rooted, and we're hard to compete with the local big shots. Even if we can crush someone, it's not that easy.'"

"After all, most of the Su family's and Ye family's strength is concentrated in Yanjing. With China so vast, everyone can scatter their forces across the nation, but they won't be that powerful.'"

"Regardless of whether it's the Ye family or the Su family, their assets invested in other cities are only a few hundred billion, but outside of Yanjing, there are three first-tier cities and many second-tier cities like Jinling, so on average, each city can't invest much manpower, resources, and capital.'"

"In the end, I was just guarding Ye's foothold in Jinling.'"

"Ah, Chen Zeqi said again: 'It's just like the Ye family. If you don't count buying out your Majesty's Empire Group, the Ye family doesn't have many industrial assets in Jinling.'" JrNovels.com
