Hearing this answer, Sun Tao was completely baffled. At this point, he just did what he had to do.

As for such worries, he felt they were completely unnecessary. He was already penniless, with no resources or possessions.

Thinking about it this way, even if I were gone, it would still seem like I was nothing. However, this young lady and Lu Fan are clearly the ones who are being heavily supported.

"Let me be clear from the start: if I can't even protect myself, I'm afraid I can't guarantee his safety."

If you can provide me with something to help me gain a foothold, then protecting him will be a piece of cake.

Upon hearing this, Lu Fan could only smile helplessly. It was obvious that they wanted something from him.

I never imagined that all this roundabout talk was just for such a small matter?

Thinking of this, he also wanted to ask how things were going over there.

"If you're asking about such a small matter, I will naturally fulfill your request. You can rest assured that as long as you deal with the other party, this thing will definitely be transported together."

As long as you don't do anything illegal or reckless, I can guarantee you'll never have to worry about food or drink, and everything will go smoothly for you from now on.

Lu Fan also wanted to make the other party completely rise up.

"However, I'd like to ask how your negotiations with the Wang family went today? What's their attitude now? Can we use this as a breakthrough?"

After listening to the other party remain silent for a long time, Lu Fan realized that things were not progressing as expected.

He was well aware of the other party's actions and the Wang family's temperament. If it were anyone else, they would probably have been killed long ago if he had taken such drastic measures against them directly.

"This is a bit difficult. He wants all the resources I have, plus the channels for transporting resources and all the suppliers."

Only after providing these things will he consider whether to offer me further assistance.

Lu Fan knew that this was clearly a way of making things difficult for him, and that they didn't want to do things properly for him. However, in his opinion, this was perfectly reasonable.

If he were from the Wang family, he would have done the same. It would be very upsetting for anyone to have a dog they raised back then constantly biting them.

Not to mention that Sun Tao has put a lot of effort into this business, and now he gets such a response. How could he possibly accept it?

"However, I could sense that he was somewhat hesitant, and I planned to continue cooperating with him, since only by relying on the Wang family could we quickly get things going."

Although this guy is a bit unethical, it has to be said that he is still very powerful in terms of ability.

Moreover, to a certain extent, the impact of his actions on the entire Nanshan Temple is unparalleled by anyone else.

From the confession just now, Lu Fan vaguely sensed that the other party should know about the connection between him and Sun Tao.

In addition, the large amount of goods that were actually robbed from him is somewhat unreasonable no matter how you calculate it.

"Speaking of which, did the other party really believe your fabricated identity and not investigate further?"

In Lu Fan's view, this is the most crucial point; you can't keep treating the other party like a fool.

If you really do that, you're just making yourself look like a fool.

"I can tell he's not asking me anything right now, but he's asking me about you."

However, I just brushed it off casually, and he didn't ask any further questions after that, presumably planning to investigate further behind the scenes.

Sun Tao knew that his return would attract their attention, and the subsequent investigation was just one step in that process.

After all, the person who should have been kicked off the stage of history has reappeared, and he still has the resources to make a comeback.

Anyone would want to find out what's behind this. Hearing this, Lu Fan understood that this was truly a life-or-death situation, and he also understood that if things continued like this, Sun Tao would naturally become a thorn in their side.

"If you do this, you've already exposed your identity. Staying there will definitely attract their attention, and then you'll be in big trouble."

Why don't you leave now and come back later to discuss the opportunity again? I'll also have someone look into your brothers for relevant clues.

If I have the chance, I will send people to rescue them all!

Lu Fan knew that although staying there would be very useful, it was completely incomparable to the other party's life.

Moreover, what has happened now has given him a sense of unease, a feeling that things might turn bad in the near future.

In contrast, Sun Tao seemed completely indifferent; in his eyes, the lives of his brothers were the most important thing now.

There is another point involved here, which is that he must make a comeback here now. If it were any other time, the current cost and opportunity would simply not have been possible.

Now it's his home turf, he can do whatever he wants, but this game definitely won't last long.

"I understand what you're saying, but this is a tremendous opportunity for me right now. No matter what, I won't let this opportunity slip by, and I'm willing to pay any price!"

After he finished speaking, he led one of them forward to pick up Nangong Qi.

He naturally understood that with this person in his hands, at the very least, he could ensure his safety, and from then on, he could do whatever he wanted without restraint.

"But brother, I have to thank you. You sent this guy to me and actually trusted me, so you should at least give me a little something in return."

Hearing this, Lu Fan shook his head helplessly. He knew that, given the other person's personality, they would probably stay there indefinitely.

He will not easily return no matter what happens next; this is merely a rear base for him, while the battlefield ahead is the answer he seeks.

Those who used to look down on him are now seen as his enemies.

"Be careful, and absolutely no accidents can happen, otherwise I'll be all alone."

Both sides have implemented numerous measures. Next, if you are unable to reach an agreement, you must notify me immediately.

Meanwhile, Lu Fan looked at the news in his hand. He never expected that the person he used to look down on would now be on the front page.

Above it was a scheme he had orchestrated himself. Although the play didn't seem big, it was still quite remarkable.
