Chapter 553 Jiang Lan's Thoughts
After this incident, their relationship with the Southern Army Base was completely broken off.
Even if the Southern Army base did not vent its anger on them, he could not bring himself to work with the murderer of his son.
At this time, in order to protect themselves, they'd better join the Thunder Base.
The Thunder Base is originally located in City A, and can be of greater help to them than the Southern Army Base far away in City B.
Not to mention the distant past, just the paper mill project that Jianghuai recently took back from the Thunder Base. Just relying on this project alone is enough to bring extremely high profits to their Crazy Waves Base.
If they establish a good relationship with the Thunder Base in the future, they may be able to get other valuable projects. Moreover, with the protection of the Thunder Base, if the Southern Army Base wants to do anything to them, they will have to think twice.
When the Third City Lord heard this, he immediately looked at Jiang Lan.
Their previous policy has always been to go against the Thunder Base behind the scenes.
Besides, their Jiang family is a big family, how can they be inferior to Lei Ting, a kid who started out as a gangster?
But before he could say anything, the Second City Lord grabbed his elbow.
"Brother is right. The situation has changed now. We alone are not enough to fight against the Southern Army Base." The second city lord looked at the third city lord and said.
The third city lord was stunned.
Although he was still unhappy with Jiang Lan's arrangement, he also knew that the Second City Lord was right.
The people from the Southern Army base had demonstrated their strength to them before. They were regular troops before the end of the world and had countless weapons in their hands, including some heavy weapons.
There are also things like helicopters, and they have quite a few of them.
If the Southern Army base really sent planes to bomb them, by the time the zombies hadn't rushed into the base, they would have already died under the artillery fire.
It is said that Thunder Base also has heavy weapons, but they have never been sold to the outside world.
Right now, they have established a good relationship with the Thunder Base and asked Jiang Huai to find Leng Ning, perhaps they can get some weapons from Thunder for self-defense.
Thinking of this, the Second City Lord sighed unwillingly.
"Jiang Huai is a kid with a shallow foundation. Do we really have to pin our hopes on him?" The second city lord said with some dissatisfaction.
The Jiang family has always had the eldest son inherit the family business. Before Jiang Lin was here, the rules were there, after all, and they all recognized him.
But now Jiang Lin is gone.
Jiang Huai is just a bastard with no power over his mother's family. Why should he be in charge of such a big family business?
Jiang Lin is gone, but he and his second brother still have their legitimate sons. In terms of seniority and maternal family influence, these two children are definitely much stronger than Jiang Huai.
But he could only think about this in his mind and did not dare to say it in front of his elder and second brothers.
Jiang Lan suddenly looked at the third city lord, his eyes filled with deep displeasure.
The Third City Lord's face changed and he quickly looked away.
"Jiang Lin is dead, and now I only have Jiang Huai as my only son. In the future, the Kuanglan Base and the Jiang family will definitely be handed over to him."
"Second brother, third brother——" Jiang Lan looked at the two of them again, with some warning in his eyes.
The two men tensed their bodies slightly and lowered their heads respectfully in the direction of Jiang Lan, not daring to look directly at him.
"Jiang Huai is also your nephew. You should be more friendly to him in the future."
The second and third city lords were stunned.
"Yes." Then they said to Jiang Lan in unison.
It seems that the eldest brother has made up his mind. From now on, Jiang Huai's position in the Kuanglan Base is basically determined.
"Okay, I'm tired. You all can go down." Jiang Lan looked at his two brothers again.
The second and third city lords stood up immediately.
After clasping his fists and bowing to Jiang Lan, he walked towards the door.
"Second brother——" Just as he reached the door, Jiang Lan suddenly called out to the second city lord.
The two men at the door stopped, looked at each other, and then the third city lord left.
"Brother." The second city lord turned around and saluted Jiang Lan.
"Jiang Lin——" Jiang Lan said two words.
"The person is already dead. You go and take care of it and let him rest in peace." After saying this, Jiang Lan leaned dejectedly back on the chair.
"Yes." The second city lord raised his head and glanced at Jiang Lan.
Seeing his sad expression, he seemed to have aged ten years.
The eldest brother has always been in poor health. Although there have been people with healing abilities who have been treating him since the end of the world, the results have not been very ideal because he is not a person with abilities.
This time Jiang Lin got into trouble, and my brother suffered such a big blow. I'm really worried that his body won't be able to bear it.
"Brother, my condolences. You must take care of yourself." The Second City Lord couldn't help but say to Jiang Lan.
They are the three brothers of the Jiang family. The eldest brother is in power, and he and the third brother assist him. Over the years, the eldest brother has always been kind to them. They also respect the eldest brother from the bottom of their hearts.
Jiang Lan sighed, propped himself up and sat up again.
"About Jiang Huai. Second brother, I want you to promise me to help him." Jiang Lan looked at the second city lord with burning eyes.
The second city lord was stunned and looked up at Jiang Lan.
"I know you and the third brother are dissatisfied, but Jiang Huai is my only son now, and he is also the only hope for our Jiang family and the Kuanglan Base."
A hint of emotion flashed across the second city lord's eyes, and he did not respond to Jiang Lan's words.
"We are now enemies with the Southern Army Base, and have been secretly working against the Thunder Base. The future of the Raging Waves Base is uncertain..."
“Brother——”
The Second City Lord was about to speak, but was interrupted by Jiang Lan's wave of his hand.
"Who is Lei Ting? He lost his father at a young age. After inheriting the family business, he massacred all his enemies. After that, in just a few years, he laundered the Lei business and built it into a leading enterprise in City A. His methods and abilities are unmatched by anyone in our Jiang family." Jiang Lan sighed.
"Based on Lei Ting's abilities and methods, there's no way he wouldn't know about the little moves we made."
"It's just that he has more important things to do and has no time to deal with us." Jiang Lan looked at the second city lord.
"Before, I thought that with the support of the Southern Army Base, our Kuanglan Base is also quite powerful. In addition, you all have high aspirations, so I thought of winning over a few large bases to fight against the Thunder Base. Let's try and see if we can take over City A and make our Jiang family the master of City A."
"But during this period, I heard the news coming from the Thunder Base. Although I don't want to admit it, the gap between us and the Thunder Base is getting bigger and bigger."
“Brother——” The second city lord frowned.
Jiang Lan waved his hand again, interrupting the second city lord.
"In this situation, we have no other choice."
"You are just like me, trapped in the Kuanglan base for too long." Jiang Lan looked at the second city lord, "In half a month, Master Lei and Master Leng will get engaged at the Thunder Base. When the time comes, you and the Third Brother will go with Jiang Huai to see what's going on."
If he hadn't seen the video footage sent back by the spy with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed the situation in the Thunder Base.
