Huo Deguang gently turned the doorknob and slowly left the office filled with documents and thoughts, clutching a fine dark coat tightly in his hand. He glanced at the office and then walked out.
Night had quietly fallen, and the city lights twinkled outside the window, adding a touch of mystery to this ordinary moment.
Huo Deguang put on his coat, his steps were hurried yet composed, and he quickly blended into the alley leading to the unique teahouse not far away.
There must be a reason why they're targeting Zhang Fan; it's just that the kid doesn't know it.
This teahouse, named "Cherry Blossom Paradise," is hidden in a corner of the bustling city, seemingly a sanctuary specially created for those seeking solace.
Before even stepping through the threshold, a faint scent of cherry blossoms quietly wafted into Huo Deguang's nose. It was a unique aroma that blended fresh tea leaves with delicate floral fragrance, making one involuntarily slow down and feel calm and expectant.
The teahouse features a traditional Japanese wooden structure with a roof covered in blue tiles and several wind chimes hanging under the eaves. Occasionally, the chimes sway gently in the wind, producing a clear and melodious sound, like the whispers of nature, leading visitors into a world far removed from the hustle and bustle of the world.
On either side of the gate, two cherry blossom trees in full bloom stand like loyal guardians, their delicate pink petals drifting in the wind, adding a touch of romance and poetry to the tranquil night.
Huo Deguang pushed open the door and was greeted by a meticulously decorated cherry blossom-themed space.
The interior of the teahouse is decorated mainly in light wood tones, and several ink paintings depicting cherry blossoms in full bloom hang on the walls. Every stroke reveals the artist's profound understanding and reverence for the beauty of nature.
Soft light shines through the paper sliding doors, casting dappled shadows on the smooth floor and creating a warm yet dignified atmosphere.
Two maids dressed in traditional cherry blossom patterned kimonos, with graceful figures and smiling faces, seemed to have stepped out of a painting. They greeted Huo Deguang with the most elegant etiquette and softly guided him to a more private room in the depths.
Inside the room, an elderly man dressed in a magnificent samurai outfit sat upright on the tatami mat. His clothes were predominantly dark blue, embroidered with delicate cherry blossoms and samurai sword patterns, showcasing his extraordinary status and taste.
The old man had a kind face, and his eyes revealed the wisdom and peace that came with years of experience. He looked up at Huo Deguang and smiled gently: "Mr. Huo, you've arrived. Please sit down. Let's enjoy this carefully brewed cherry blossom tea together and savor this rare moment of tranquility."
"We can acquire the Zhang family's ancestral secret recipe for 200 million. We are also interested in traditional Chinese medicine from Xia Kingdom, and the price is negotiable."
This old man is Matsuda Inoshita's superior.
He had already obtained the sample last time, and after taking it, even his old bones felt energetic. Although he had some thoughts about going to the beast, it indirectly proved that the Zhang family's ancestral Chinese medicine was effective.
Furthermore, as a family with a long history in traditional medicine, the Zhang family must possess other Chinese herbal remedies, all of which are valuable.
When the Zhang family was still alive, they had inquired about the acquisition, but the Zhang family wouldn't sell no matter how much money was offered.
Now, we have no choice but to sell.
If you don't sell, then you'll go to jail.
Huo Deguang nodded. It was just a prescription.
Once I've caught that kid red-handed and arrested him, he won't be able to refuse to sell even if he's in jail.
Some money cannot be taken, but some money, especially overseas money, can be taken without anyone knowing.
Huo Deguang knew that many people had noticed him because he had offended someone. Tiger Brother had a protective umbrella behind him, and the Qin family also had a great influence here.
I came here for tea secretly this time.
Tiger Brother's money was too much for him to handle casually, and he also didn't dare to accept the money offered by the Qin family.
What kind of money is safe? It's definitely money overseas.
Now that I've offended too many people, I'll have to consider going overseas eventually, and that's when my overseas money will come in handy.
Huo Deguang finished his cup of tea and came out.
Let's celebrate after we take down that kid.
A single formula can cost hundreds of millions?
This thing is valuable.
How much do I earn in a month after working so hard? Just a few thousand yuan, not even enough for a single drink. And what about those businessmen? They can eat up a month's salary in one meal.
They are the ones who are truly despicable!
===
Warehousing company.
Zhang Fan arrived here with his men.
I just received news that this area has been included in the demolition plan, but the compensation plan has not yet been finalized.
This involves the jobs of thousands of people and the storage of various items.
I just bought it, and now it's going to be demolished?
Demolition and relocation are supposed to be a good thing, but this whole thing seems strange.
Where can you find a company that starts construction before the compensation plan has been finalized?
And they won't give us time to move out?
Hu Dajun stood at the door with a machete in his hand. If anyone dared to come and demolish the property, he would kill them!
Now he's like a raging lion; this is his second home.
Now all the company's hundreds of young guys have grabbed their weapons and are just waiting for those bastards to come and demolish the premises.
"Brother, don't stop me, this has nothing to do with you!"
Hu Dajun was very excited.
Don't stop me?
Do you really think you don't know what those people are thinking behind the scenes?
They just want to find evidence that I'm involved in organized crime. If hundreds of my brothers fight the demolition team, there will definitely be casualties. This behavior is extremely heinous, and I'll definitely end up in jail.
The sudden announcement of demolition here tells you what's going on.
"You can make money delivering food these days. Why don't you and your buddies switch to delivering food first?"
Zhang Fan walked over and took the machete from his hand.
"Brother, are we really that cowardly? They've got us riding on their necks!"
Hu Dajun wiped his nose. This was his own home, and those people wanted to demolish it without giving him a single penny.
Isn't this blatant bullying?
They really are riding on your head. You're definitely not happy when someone rides on your head.
However, impulsiveness is the devil, so this time I need to be a little more restrained. I also need to find out who is targeting me from behind.
"Brother, we've got a batch of good stuff. If we buy it, we'll definitely make a fortune."
Liu Tiezhu came over mysteriously.
nice one?
“A relative of mine went to jail for committing a crime, but he’s been released now. He said he acquired a batch of priceless treasures before he went in, and now he’s asking us if we’re interested in buying them.”
Liu Tiezhu said in a low voice, afraid that others would hear him.
"Let's go take a look."
"You go too. The brothers go back to deliver food first. Let the villagers have a holiday, and they'll still get paid."
Zhang Fan glanced at Hu Dajun, who was like a raging lion, but still obediently followed orders.
"Brother, don't worry. My relative seems to be in jail but refuses to confess. He must be hiding something good."
Liu Tiezhu said excitedly.
nice one?
I'm kind of looking forward to it.
