Upon returning to Yunwu Mountain, Ma Jianguo went directly to Lin Yu's residence.
He handed the newly acquired property contract to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu glanced at it, a cold smirk playing on his lips. "Good heavens, a luxury mansion on the West Coast, that must cost at least a small fortune, right? Which cadre could withstand this kind of test?"
Ma Jianguo sighed and said, "This is probably not the first time they've done this! I wonder how many people have been corrupted!"
"Now that I've accepted Sun Li's gifts, I should have gained some of her trust! However, this woman is quite tight-lipped; I didn't manage to get anything out of her today!"
Lin Yu chuckled and said, "No rush, take it slow. Trust isn't built in a day or two; it takes time to go through things!"
...
On the other side, the heads of the four major families, Sun Li and Jiang Xinxin, along with the heads of the other three families, were also discussing matters.
They were all very happy to learn that Ma Jianguo had accepted the villa given to him by Sun Li.
"Haha, I knew it! All crows are black! I was right!" Zhang Wanghai sneered disdainfully. It was his idea to give a gift; it seems he was right after all.
"It's good that you accepted it! I was worried that you wouldn't!"
"It seems we really shouldn't overestimate these officials!" Lu Junsheng sneered.
"So now... we've already gotten on board with Director Ma?" Hu Junsheng asked, frowning. What he cared about most was when he could make a move against Lin Yu and avenge his son!
Sun Li shook her head. "It's not certain yet! There's something strange about what this Leader Ma is saying. Maybe he deliberately accepted the villa to test us further!"
Jiang Xinxin laughed and said, "Sister Sun, you might be overthinking it. I thought that Boss Ma was looking at you with a lecherous gaze, no different from those horny men!"
Sun Li blushed slightly, glared at her, but nodded and said, "Anyway, we've already recorded the evidence, so we're not afraid of him reneging on his promise!"
“However, let’s put aside the matter of taking action against the man surnamed Lin for now! After all, this leader Ma has just taken office, so we should give him some face!” Sun Li added.
Apart from Hu Jun, the others all nodded in agreement.
Hu Jun clenched his fists, but he couldn't say anything and could only hold back for now.
"Oh right, tomorrow is the mobilization meeting for the formation of the joint chamber of commerce by our four major families. I've already had the venue prepared. Should we hold it as scheduled, or postpone it again?" Jiang Xinxin asked the group.
Since she was the one who initiated this matter, she naturally had to take some responsibility.
"My main concern is whether that guy surnamed Lin will cause trouble like he did at the auction," Jiang Xinxin couldn't help but voice her worries.
"Open! Why won't you open it!"
At this moment, Zhang Wanghai suddenly opened his eyes, shooting out two sharp glints, and said with a cold smile, "Are we just going to let him come and bully us instead of provoking him?"
Hu Jun quickly chimed in, "That's right! If he dares to come again, that's a provocation, and we'll be acting in self-defense! Isn't that perfect?"
"Gather a hundred axemen, and if he dares to come, I'll chop him down!" Hu Jun snorted fiercely again.
Jiang Xinxin frowned, then shook her head and said, "I've seen their skills, but I'm afraid the axemen aren't up to the task! Besides, this is our mobilization meeting; making such a big fuss might scare the other families."
At this moment, Lu Junsheng also spoke up, sneering, "If you ask me, we should secretly deploy a few people. When he comes, we'll shoot him in the back. He won't even have time to react!"
Sun Li sighed and shook her head, saying, "Prepare everything first! Hopefully we won't need it, but if he dares to come, we'll let him know that the four great families are not to be trifled with!"
Snap!
Zhang Wanghai slammed his hand on the table, and the matter was settled!
...
The next day, at Cloud and Mist Mountain.
Lin Yu had just finished practicing his skills in the courtyard when Feng Jiu handed him a towel.
He then added, "Young Marshal, we received news last night that this year is the mobilization meeting for the joint chamber of commerce of the four major families!"
"A joint chamber of commerce? A mobilization meeting?" Lin Yu frowned slightly.
Feng Jiu nodded. "Yes, this mobilization meeting is led by Jiang Xinxin! It will be held at the Haotai Hotel at nine o'clock this morning! It is said that many families have already signed up to participate!"
"Heh?" Lin Yu couldn't help but sneer. "At a time like this, they still have the mind to hold a mobilization meeting?"
"It seems that Hu Jun's death has not served as any warning to them!" Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, let out a chilling laugh, and gave the order.
"Get the car ready, I'm going to go there myself and experience the atmosphere of the venue!"
at the same time.
In the luxurious bedroom of the Lan family home, the old master, Lan Shanyue, rested after taking his medicine.
Ever since using Lin Yu's prescription, Lan Shanyue has been feeling sleepy.
Lan Ling looked at her sleeping grandfather, shook her head, and quietly slipped out with the medicine bowl in her hand.
Just then, the butler rushed over.
"Butler Liu, what's wrong? What's the matter that's so urgent?" Lan Ling asked.
When Butler Liu saw Lan Ling, he was slightly taken aback. "Miss, you're here too!"
"I have something to report to the head of the family!" Butler Liu said with an anxious expression.
Lan Ling frowned. "Grandpa was just resting. You can tell me what happened!"
Butler Liu hesitated for a moment. The head of the family had already announced that he would hand over the management of the company to Lan Ling, so he said, "Hey, Miss, it's like this. Today, the four major families held a joint mobilization meeting for the Chamber of Commerce. I heard that the Second Master asked our young master Lan Qi to attend! So I came to tell the head of the family right away!"
"What? Didn't Grandpa already decide that day that he wouldn't associate with the four major families and would instead go to Fengtian to develop his business? Why is he still attending this chamber of commerce meeting?"
Lan Ling was very angry, feeling that Lan Yingze and his son had acted on their own initiative!
Butler Liu continued, "Not only that, the Second Master also used his authority as a board member to withdraw 20 million in cash from the finance department, claiming it was to pay membership fees!"
"What?" Hearing this, Lan Ling was furious. What were these two thinking? The Lan family was facing a huge funding gap and the situation was not optimistic. She never expected that the father and son would actually go and give away money to others for nothing.
If this money were used properly, that would be fine, but what are those four great families? By harming the Huang family, they are, in a sense, enemies of the Lan family!
Lan Yingze and his son, aren't they just recognizing a thief as their father?
Thinking of this, Lan Ling was furious. She gritted her teeth and said, "Grandpa hasn't recovered yet, so let's not bother him with this! I'll go myself and bring Lan Qi back!"
Soon, Lanling also set off, heading straight for the mobilization meeting.
