Chapter 307 - Fury
Chapter 307: Fury
At the Tang family’s old residence.
Several hours had passed since he sent someone to investigate the land in Shaping. The old man’s mood became heavier. How long had it been??Could it be that he was caught by Lu Ming’s people again??He subconsciously recalled the scene of being blackmailed last time.
If it was really as he thought, how much money would he have to spend to redeem him this time? Recently, the Tang family had suffered a huge loss because the market had been snatched away. How could they have the money to save a small fry? Now he had made up his mind. No matter how much money Lu Ming wanted, he would not transfer money to him!
It was just that he did not manage to bring back the most important information. Perhaps he should find someone more capable to investigate.
He clicked his tongue. Lu Ming was only in his early twenties, so why was he as smart as that old fox Tang Mingkun? As long as he didn’t die, he would die. Should he say that he was indeed someone Tang Mingkun had taken a fancy to? He had really learned everything! Fortunately, he had a more talented fifth daughter. After she had a taste of power, No. 5 would lead the Tang family to an even higher peak!
As for the rumors outside—Tang Mingkun wanted to name Lu Ming as his successor. He did not believe that such a shrewd old fox would hand over the family business to an outsider who was not related to him by blood! After all, this was something that even he could not do!
As he was deep in thought, he heard hurried footsteps.
“Patriarch! I know what Lu Ming Corporation is building at Shaping! A satellite city!”
Little Luo panted heavily and told him everything he had seen and heard, but he also covered up the part where he wanted to jump ship. Fortunately, Tom Baiyan, who was shocked by this news, did not notice the logic loophole inside at all. He said with a livid expression, “How can this be?! Could it be that those people from Lu Ming’s team are more powerful than the officials? Are you sure that person is not fooling you?”
Unbelievable!?everyone thought.
If this matter was true, it would definitely cause a commotion in the world. The officials would definitely rope in Lu Ming Corporation. At that time, it would only become more and more difficult to deal with. How long had it been? After the flying car, a satellite city was built after a few months?! It was not the supermarket that they were mocking, but a satellite city!
If this were to spread, wouldn’t Lu Ming make a killing?! Then he would leave the Tang family behind! However, he still didn’t think that the Lu Ming Corporation could do such a thing! This was fake! Lu Ming must have known Little Luo’s true identity, so he deliberately let him come back with fake news to cause panic!
Thinking of this, he grinned and said, “This is impossible. Even if it’s realized, it can’t be the Lu Ming Corporation! Alright, stop fooling me. Do you really think I’ve lived for decades in vain? Tell me, what did he ask you to tell the Tang family?”
Seeing this, Little Luo smiled bitterly and said, “He didn’t recognize me as a member of the Tang family, let alone pass on the message. Patriarch, what I said just now was true. I…”
In the next second, the old man threw the teacup on the ground. The antique that cost more than 10,000 yuan immediately shattered into pieces. Then he glared at Little Luo and said, “I think I need to remind you that I’m not joking with you! A sense of humor depends on the occasion! It’s just gathering information. If you’re unwilling to tell the truth, I can send someone to go again!
Think carefully before you speak!”
Little Luo was so frightened by the family head’s ferocious facial features that he trembled. He stammered, “I-I’m not joking, family head. The satellite city plan is real. I-I saw it with my own eyes. If you want to enter there, you need the identity information and fingerprints that you recorded previously. If you climb over the wall, you will faint the moment your body touches it.”
He paused for a moment before continuing, “Lu Ming Corporation has already arrested dozens of thieves and sent them to the police station. Just by looking at the lineup, I can tell that what they’re doing is definitely not a small matter. I think that the reason why the rumors about building a supermarket are spreading like wildfire is because Lu Ming Corporation is either the mastermind or they’ve been adding fuel to the fire.
If you don’t believe me, you can call the police station and ask.”
‘That’s a good idea!’
The old man picked up the phone handed to him by Butler He with a dark expression. Then he dialed his friend’s number and asked, “Old Xia, this is Tang Boyan. I’m looking for you because I have something to ask you. Did you detain a group of thieves recently? Were they all sent over by the same person?”
It was unknown what was said on the other end, but his expression became uglier and uglier. In the end, he casually dealt with it and hung up. He held the phone and did not speak for a long time, but anyone could feel that under his calm appearance, a volcano was about to erupt!
Opening a supermarket?
Who the f*ck spread the rumors?!?He was actually fooled by a brat. If he had noticed that something was wrong earlier, how could Lu Ming have built a satellite city under his nose?! Perhaps he would have sent someone to cause trouble from the beginning, and he wouldn’t have been unable to enter the industry now!
Now he was only left with one last bit of luck. Shaping was located in a remote area, so no one would notice that there was a satellite city there. As long as he forbade the other news media from spreading this matter, the Tang family might still have a chance!
Before he could heave a sigh of relief, a message popped up on his phone—”Congratulations, Beijing Shaping has become the latest satellite city!”
A satellite city?
Who became a satellite city?
Shaping?
He read it several times and finally had to accept this fact. Congratulations my a*s! Damn it! I’m really unlucky! Could it be that Lu Ming had expected this situation to happen, so he attacked first? Then who was the source of the information?
Tang Mingkun?
Or did Lu Ming guess it himself?
If it was the latter… Just thinking about it made his heart sink to the bottom. No, no, no! This person couldn’t be so powerful. Tang Mingkun must have told Lu Ming in advance through some channel! Yes, that was it! Even though he kept lying to himself, it was useless no matter what he did now!
The satellite city was almost completed. Even if he bribed someone to cause trouble, he would probably be chased out before he could even enter!
Now what else could he do?
For a moment, he could not think of a solution!
He rubbed the antique habitually, but his rhythm became more and more hurried. He placed it on the table and sat motionless on the chair, looking forward blankly. He did not expect that as the head of the Tang family, he would be forced into a corner one day!?Lu Ming!?He muttered these two words in his heart.
