Later that day, an exorbitant bounty suddenly appeared on the dark web.
The reward is as high as $10 million. The demand is to eliminate Shang Yanfei of Shang's Jewelry Company and his immediate family members.
It has to be said that the business family is quite large.
Shang Yanfei's father, Shang Weiren, was the second child in his family. He originally had an older brother and two younger brothers.
However, his older brother died in the conflict that year.
Thus, he naturally became the head of the family.
All the brothers have started their own families and have many children.
They are no longer based in Singapore, but have expanded their businesses overseas, especially the third brother who owns a gem mine in South Africa.
The bounty list detailed the names of direct descendants of the Shang family, along with the corresponding price for each person.
Among them, Shang Yanfei's price was the highest, reaching 3 million US dollars.
Secondly, there was his uncle, Zhang Jianming, who received $1.8 million.
Next came Shang Weiren and the others.
This bounty immediately caused a huge uproar on the dark web.
All parties reacted to the news.
Ten million dollars!
This is a huge deal!
Therefore, it is coveted by many bounty hunters.
Even many mercenaries have begun to take action.
It's important to know that mercenaries' monthly income varies greatly, with some earning less than $20,000. And this doesn't include the cost of their weapons, equipment, and training.
Of course, they will receive more pay after taking on a mission, and if they are injured or killed, they will receive a large sum of compensation and commercial insurance to leave to their families.
It's fair to say that many people become mercenaries not because they're interested in the monthly salary, because they can't keep much of it.
If the compensation money can be left for family members, then they will not have to worry about their future.
Therefore, this message on the dark web has immediately attracted a lot of interest.
Many people believe that this mission is not very dangerous. It doesn't require going to the battlefield or carrying out special missions; it's just about killing a bunch of ordinary people. To them, it's a piece of cake!
However, it must be said that these people have oversimplified the issue.
The Shang family, having fought their way out of the shadows and become a powerful force in the jade and jewelry business, is no ordinary family.
At the very least, Shang Weiren is a person with keen insight.
Instead of someone like Chen Dong, who isn't particularly sensitive to danger.
Shang Yanfei had just returned from Myanmar, and Shang Weiren became wary upon seeing his condition.
He also tried asking Shang Yanfei.
However, given Shang Yanfei's condition, it was clear that he wouldn't get any information from him. Moreover, he admitted that asking too many questions in too much detail had worsened his condition. Therefore, he could only try to find out more information through other means.
He specifically sought out his subordinates who had accompanied Shang Yanfei on his mission to Myanmar.
However, many of these subordinates did not actually participate in these matters.
Because Shang Yanfei trusted Ouyang Ming more, she let Ouyang Ming handle many things personally.
Ouyang Ming also brought his associates with him, but most of them were killed in action on the battlefield in Burma.
However, some of these subordinates had been following Shang Yanfei closely and were familiar with his whereabouts and words.
Upon hearing Shang Weiren's question, they all shared what they knew.
They didn't even know who Shang Yanfei wanted to deal with.
Although no one's account was comprehensive, Shang Weiren pieced them together like a jigsaw puzzle, gaining a general understanding of the whole situation.
It was only then that he realized he had been uneasy ever since he first sent Shang Yanfei to Yangon to attend the jade gambling conference.
This precious son actually did something so outrageous in Myanmar. He was so audacious as to hire armed forces to kidnap a billionaire.
This is not something that cannot be done, but it must be done flawlessly, not started strong but ended weakly.
He and his brothers had engaged in double-crossing, robbery, and even murder back then, but they always kept it clean, which is why they have been able to live peacefully to this day without any major problems.
Shang Yanfei failed to accomplish his mission, allowing the other side to kill Ouyang Ming and nearly wiping out several of the hired armed forces.
What angered him even more was that after such a major mistake, Shang Yanfei did not inform him in time so that he could prepare accordingly.
Now, he strongly suspects that the other party has already learned that Shang Yanfei is the mastermind and will retaliate. And the target of the retaliation will not only be him, Shang Yanfei, but also the Shang family.
Although businesses are large and powerful, they also have many areas that need to be defended.
Because if an opponent were to attack any one of the Shang family's properties, the Shang family could suffer losses.
If the opponent is patient, they can slowly wear down their own family.
However, this was the last thing he wanted to see.
We must find a way to either reconcile with the other party or completely defeat them.
Otherwise, the Shang family might suffer significant losses.
However, he had no way of knowing the other party's true identity.
He thought for a moment and then had another idea. Since the incident happened in Myanmar, someone in Yangon should know about it.
After all, with such a big incident, some information is bound to leak out.
Those most familiar with jade gambling are undoubtedly the organizers of the public auction.
So, Shang Weiren called his old acquaintance, Wu Shanwen.
