Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Xia Zhengguang Signs

"How about this amount?"

Xia Zhengguang held up one hand, showing the number to Mr. Shen.

"Of course."

Seeing Xia Zhengguang’s gesture, the corner of Mr. Shen’s mouth lifted in a slight smile.

"So, when can we sign the contract and finalize the deal?"

The Xia family’s company might be in a slump, but buying their shares was still no small expense.

Besides, it was five percent. It might not sound like a lot, but its market value was substantial.

"I’ve already prepared the contract. As soon as you sign it, Mr. Xia, we can complete the transaction right away."

’Anyway, the person behind me is putting up the money, so the amount makes no difference to me.’

’No matter what Xia Zhengguang is thinking, my only goal is to get him to sell even more shares.’

"I’ll look over the contract right now!"

Right now, Xia Zhengguang was desperate to sell his shares and plug the financial holes in the Xia family’s company.

He had run out of options.

Mr. Shen handed the contract to Xia Zhengguang.

The contract itself was perfectly fine. However, who he transferred the shares to *after* Xia Zhengguang sold them to him was none of Xia Zhengguang’s business.

Xia Zhengguang started reading the contract, page by page. As expected, he didn’t find any issues.

"Mr. Shen, the contract looks fine. If I sign now, can you transfer the money to me right away?"

"Of course. I’m a man who prides himself on his integrity."

Mr. Shen gave Xia Zhengguang a firm, positive answer without the slightest hint of guilt.

At these words, Xia Zhengguang’s eyes lit up. After confirming one last time that there were no issues with the contract, he signed his name.

After signing, Xia Zhengguang looked at Mr. Shen with an expectant gaze.

Mr. Shen knew exactly what he was thinking.

"No need to rush. I’ll just give the bank a call, and they’ll transfer the money to you right away."

With that, Mr. Shen took out his phone and leisurely called the bank.

He and Mo Bin had arranged this in advance; as soon as he called, the bank would transfer the funds to Xia Zhengguang.

The Xia family company’s stock was worth about 50 billion in total. One percentage point of shares was worth about 500 million, so the five points Xia Zhengguang was selling amounted to 2.5 billion. (Author’s note: I’m not sure if this is how it’s calculated. Please don’t overthink it if it’s wrong.)

However, compared to the massive deficit the Xia family’s company was facing, this was just a drop in the bucket.

Xia Zhengguang watched Mr. Shen’s every move. He even grew tense during the slightest pause in Mr. Shen’s conversation with the bank.

However, Mr. Shen didn’t keep him waiting long. He quickly finished his call and hung up.

"I’ve called the bank. You should keep an eye out for the deposit notification, Mr. Xia."

But a 2.5 billion transfer would certainly have to go through multiple levels of review at the bank; it wouldn’t be instantaneous.

Xia Zhengguang certainly wasn’t going to let him leave until the money arrived, so he kept his eyes glued on Mr. Shen.

"Mr. Shen, did the bank say when the money would be deposited?"

Every second that passed made Xia Zhengguang more anxious.

"It’s surely being processed now. You can be a little more patient, Mr. Xia. There’s no need to be in such a hurry."

Mr. Shen took another sip of his black coffee.

’Of course, *you’re* not the one whose company is in trouble. It’s easy for you to talk.’

"Mr. Shen, do you have any plans for these shares now that you’ve acquired them?"

Xia Zhengguang’s plan was to sell a small stake to buy the Xia family’s company a little more time. Once he found a solution to his problems, he would buy the shares back.

"Hmm? No plans in particular."

’Of course I’m not going to tell him the truth. He’d definitely throw a fit.’
