Chapter 21: I'm Not Even an Ant
ste your money." Qin Hongyuan shook his head."Dad, since you're already here, don't refuse. It's not much money anyway." Ling Hao smiled."Buy a car, and when you have time off, you and Mom can drive a...[ ]
One hour later.
A Land Rover stopped in front of a skyscraper in the center of Dongzhou City that had not yet officially opened.
"Is this Dongzhou Building" The two got out of the car and walked to the square. Ling Hao looked up, his expression complex.
This was his foster father's greatest wish before he passed away. He wanted to turn this, the tallest building in Tung Chau, into a symbol of Tung Chau, so that whenever someone mentioned Tung Chau, they would think of the Tung Chau Building!
According to the plan, after the building is completed, it will integrate high-end shopping, leisure, entertainment, hotels, and offices!
But before it was finished, his foster father met with an accident!
"Hmm!" Lu Yue responded.
"Your adoptive father had an accident, the project was immediately halted, and the relevant departments of Dongzhou once considered finding someone to take over."
But on one hand, because of the large engineering investment, on the other hand, people felt it was inauspicious, so no one dared to take it.
A year ago, at your command, I contacted Shen Fatso and had him come to Dongzhou to take over this project.
He established a branch of the Sihai Group in Dongzhou. After a year of construction, it is now complete and currently in the business attraction stage.
"Mmm!" Ling Hao nodded slightly. "That Shen Fatty is a pretty reliable person!"
Quack! Quack! Quack!
At that moment, the sound of brakes screeching came from the road outside the square, followed by twenty or thirty luxury cars pulling over.
At the front was a Rolls-Royce Phantom, followed by a line of black Mercedes-Benz cars. The scene was quite impressive.
Then, hundreds of men in black suits walked out of a line of Mercedes cars and dispersed in all directions.
In no time, the highway was put under curfew and some pedestrians on the square were also being persuaded to leave one by one.
Some passersby outside the 100-meter radius came over one after another, their faces showing a hint of astonishment.
"Who are they Such a big show!"
Didn't you see the license plate on that Rolls-Royce at the front That's the chairman of Four Seas Group's car, and this Dongzhou Building is their company!
"No wonder! It turns out that it's the Sihai Group, which has risen rapidly in Dongzhou this year, forcing even the first-ranked Zhao family to retreat!"
"...
"
A buzz of conversation filled the air.
Meanwhile, two men, one old and one young, got out of a Rolls-Royce.
The elder was around sixty years old, with white hair and a youthful face. His forehead was broad and his jawline sharp. After getting out of the car, he stood beside it like a spear, his expression tense.
The young man was under forty, overweight, dressed in brand-name clothes, and had a smile like Buddha.
"This dead fat man just loves putting on such a show!" Lu Yue scanned the other person and said very speechlessly.
"Ling Shao!" In no time, the young man ran over three steps at a time.
Ran to Ling Hao's side and bowed deeply: "Shen Le reports to you, please instruct me, young master Ling!"
At the sight of this, a flash of shock crossed the eyes of the old man in the distance. He couldn't believe his own eyes.
As Shen Le's personal guard, only he knew best how terrifying Shen Le's background was.
Not only in this province, but throughout the entire country, it's a top-tier presence!
He'd been following Shen Yue for almost ten years, and he had never seen him treat anyone with such respect!
"You really like to show off" Ling Hao glared at the other person. "First, let your people disperse!"
"Hehehe, I just don't want to let riff-raff disturb Young Master Ling!" Shen Le grinned and waved his hand behind him at the old man. "Scram!"
"Received!" The old man nodded and gave a command to a man in black beside him. The man in black took out a walkie-talkie and began to give orders.
In a short while, one hundred men in black re-boarded their vehicles, and the convoy roared away.
Subsequently, Shen Le turned to Lu Yue: "Lu ge, long time no see, I missed you so much!"
"Get lost, I don't have your kind of hobbies!" Lu Yue glared at him.
"Uh... Leader Lu, you can't ruin my reputation!" Shen Le twitched the corner of his mouth, then looked at Ling Hao.
"Ling Shao, this place isn't officially open yet. Why don't we head to the company and sit there for a bit"
"Then come sit in our car for a bit!" Ling Hao raised his head to look at the building one last time before turning and walking towards the car.
"Ling Shao, weren't you always in the West Region How did you suddenly come to Dongzhou" After the three got into the car, Shen Le asked Ling Hao.
"You've lost some weight, kid. Not bad. It's been two years." Ling Hao didn't respond to his words.
"Heh heh, isn't that what you asked for" Shen Le grinned.
"I haven't slacked on my fitness these past two years, and I've already achieved the weight loss goal you set for me!"
"Hm! Not bad, you've got some willpower." Ling Hao smiled faintly.
"Thank you for the praise, Shao Ling!" Shen Le responded with a smile. "Shao Ling, may I first report on the progress of Dongzhou Building"
"No need!" Ling Hao shook his head. "I believe in your abilities, you can handle this small matter yourself!"
“Thank you, Young Master Ling, for your trust!” Shen Le paused slightly and continued, “Young Master Ling, is there anything you need to do in Dongzhou Any new instructions”
"Nothing much is going on for now, you just focus on your business development work and get this building back to normal operations as soon as possible." Ling Hao replied.
"Please rest assured, Ling Shao, everything will be fine!" Shen Le responded loudly.
Moreover, get someone to investigate the assets under Zhao Wang Tao's three families and be ready to take over at any time! Ling Hao pondered for a moment before instructing.
"Hmm" Shen Yue was slightly taken aback. "Ling Shao means to make a move against these three families"
"My adoptive father died at the hands of these three!" Ling Hao said in a low voice.
"Huh They're really dead!" Shen Le was full of anger: "Please rest assured, Young Master Ling, dealing with such a few ants is no problem at all!"
"To swallow up those few families' businesses will likely take some funds, do you have enough on hand" Ling Hao continued, "If not, I can transfer some to you!"
Money, to Ling Hao, had long since been nothing more than a number.
He himself doesn't know how much money is in total on those Supreme cards he has.
But there was one thing he knew very well, any single one of those paintings could probably buy ten buildings like this with money to spare.
"Enough!" Shen Le nodded vigorously. "I can definitely afford this small amount of money!"
"Good!" Ling Hao nodded slightly. "Also, have someone compile a file on the Qin family for me."
"The Qin family" Shen Le was slightly taken aback before nodding again: "Received!"
"Alright, go ahead and get back to work. I'll have Lu Yue give you a call if anything comes up!"
After chatting for another ten minutes or so, Ling Hao waved his hand.
"Okay!" Shen Le responded, then greeted Lu Yue before getting out of the car.
"Young Master, who is that person Needing you to treat him with such respect" Elder asked after Shen Le returned to the Rolls-Royce car.
"Old Tang, I have a question for you. Don't you think I'm already amazing" Shen Le changed the subject.
"With the young master's achievements today, he is considered one of the best among his peers!" replied the old man.
"Heh heh!" Shen Yue smiled faintly.
Then I’ll tell you, even if my achievements were ten or a hundred times greater, compared to him, I wouldn't even be considered an ant!rom the moment you stepped across the border, your every move has been under our control!""The reason I didn't come to you until now is that I was afraid of scaring the snake. If your so-called sect l...
