Tang Xuewen finished listening to Liu Wenzhuo's speech and immediately turned to Ye Xiao with a smile. Clearly, whether to accept or not depends on Ye Xiao's intentions, and it's not a given that one must take whatever is offered.

In fact, Tang Xuewen wasn't the only one looking at Ye Xiao at this moment; another person was Fu Donglai!

Fu Donglai truly hadn't expected that Ye Xiao would control more than half of Bird City's major families so quickly, or rather, that at this moment, half of Bird City was under Ye Xiao's control.

Just before this, Fu Donglai even harbored thoughts of gaining some benefit from the Feng family, but unexpectedly, things changed so swiftly. Fu Donglai understood that he ought to do something, at least something to please Ye Xiao.

"Brother Xiao!" Fu Donglai also looked at Ye Xiao and said, "I actually came today because of the Feng family's matter."

"The Feng family?" Upon hearing Fu Donglai's words, the Chen family members, including Chen Maocai, and Liu Wenzhuo were all taken aback.

Clearly, they really didn't know that there was also a matter concerning the Feng family today.

Seeing everyone's confusion, Fu Donglai quickly explained, "This morning, I went to the Feng family and took them down without a fight. Now, Feng Yang from the Feng family wants to stay alive, just like Zhao Pu from the Zhao family, and they're willing to contribute everything from the Feng family, of course, to Brother Xiao. With Chairman Tang here today, it's perfect; Chairman Tang can also lend a helping hand."

Everyone present was mostly shocked upon hearing Fu Donglai's words.

Clearly, no one had expected the downfall of the Feng family to happen so rapidly.

Even Chen Maocai found Ye Xiao even more unfathomable.

The astute Chen Maocai understood that Ye Xiao had an elusive relationship with the Jiang family. Ye Xiao had altered the long-standing power structure of Bird City in just one day, and the Jiang family, as the head of Bird City's major families, hadn't uttered a word, indicating their tacit approval.

With the Jiang family remaining silent, the Li family and the Qi family were also silent, clearly approving of Ye Xiao's movements in Bird City.

"Brother Xiao, you now control half of Bird City," said Chen Cangyu, looking at Ye Xiao with admiration. "In the past, the Jiang family was the dominant force in Bird City, but now, it will be you, Brother Xiao, who leads."

"Being praised by Cang Yu doesn't happen often in Bird City," Ye Xiao said. "I don't care about how much money there is. If you all think this is appropriate, then it will just mean more work for Xuewen."

Ye Xiao's words sounded very simple, but the Chen family members and Fu Donglai began to contemplate.

Indeed, now the Zhao family and Feng family would surely all merge into Sky Wings Group, and eighty percent of the Liu family's assets would also integrate into it.

This obviously seemed like a lot, but Chen Maocai and Fu Donglai both began to reflect on their family's assets.

Did Ye Xiao come here today only for these things? Is this all he would be satisfied with?

Although Liu Wenzhuo couldn't match the Chen family members and Fu Donglai in combat power, he was quite sharp and had contributed eighty percent of the Liu family's assets. Clearly, he felt somewhat reluctant on behalf of the Liu family, but there was no choice. However, seeing that the assets of the Chen and Fu families remained untouched made him feel a bit unbalanced.

"Of course, Chairman Tang will have to put in some extra thought, but in my view, there's no safer place for these assets than under Ye Xiao's control, just like our Liu family's eighty percent. To outsiders, this seems like a lot, and some might say I'm timid and avoiding trouble, but actually, I know that the twenty percent of the Liu family's assets I'll have in the future will be worth more than their current value. More importantly, they'll be much safer," Liu Wenzhuo said with a laugh. "Naturally, even this twenty percent, when I'm gone, Ye Xiao, you must take good care of it. This will be my future grandchildren's pocket money."

Liu Wenzhuo laughed heartily as he spoke. To those unaware, they might think he'd lost his mind, but to Chen Maocai, Chen Zeming, Fu Donglai, and others, these words struck a chord.

Liu Wenzhuo demonstrated his complete loyalty to Ye Xiao through his actions, promising that even his vested interests would eventually be given to Ye Xiao.

If it were just him and Ye Xiao, perhaps this would be mere flattery. However, in fact, others were present too, so Liu Wenzhuo's words, to some extent, acted as a goad to them.

Evidently, if they didn't show something, even if Liu Wenzhuo possessed not a shred of assets, with Ye Xiao as a strong backer, neither Chen Maocai nor Fu Donglai would dare to be reckless towards him, because he wholly belonged to Ye Xiao.

So, Liu Wenzhuo's action of pleasing Ye Xiao also became a silent yet deadly weapon.

"Brother Xiao!" At this moment, Fu Donglai immediately turned to Ye Xiao, earnestly saying, "Mr. Liu is right. Actually, I think the same. Therefore, my intention is also to transfer eighty percent of the Fu family's assets to Sky Wings Group, leaving twenty percent just for the daily expenses of the Fu family."

In fact, before this, Fu Donglai had expressed several times the desire to give fifty percent of the Fu family's assets to Ye Xiao, but Ye Xiao had never said he wanted them. Clearly, now was the most appropriate time. However, saying fifty percent now would obviously be less than what Liu Wenzhuo offered, so Fu Donglai dared not offer less and thus said decisively.

"Don't overthink it, Donglai," Ye Xiao looked at Fu Donglai, smiling. "I never intended to take anyone's assets. I've said before, money isn't something especially important to me."

"Brother Xiao, I understand that, of course," Fu Donglai immediately replied righteously to Ye Xiao. "Actually, I'm also just giving Brother Xiao and Chairman Tang some trouble. I know Brother Xiao wouldn't treat me unfairly, so money isn't particularly important to me either. As long as Brother Xiao doesn't mind, I'm willing to follow Brother Xiao for a lifetime, to be Brother Xiao's right-hand man!"

Bootlicking!

This was almost the word that appeared in everyone's minds.

While Fu Donglai's bootlicking skills weren't perfect, they were quite decent.

Ye Xiao deliberately hesitated and said, "How about this, sixty percent. You still need to take care of your big family, Fu Donglai."

"This..." Fu Donglai was inwardly overjoyed, but outwardly wore a look of concern, as if without giving Ye Xiao a bit more, he'd feel uneasy inside.
