Upon hearing Chen Kangren's words, Gu Weiguo and Fang Junfeng's expressions changed drastically.
Gu Weiguo then spoke up, "Director Chen, what do you mean by that?"
"How did digging up things we buried here become the property of your organization?"
"You should know that this mass grave is unclaimed."
Fang Junfeng also said with a dark face, "Director Chen, don't go too far with your words. How did this place become your organization's property?"
"Besides, we didn't hide anything; the box was empty when we dug it out."
"We're all looking for the thief right now, trying to find out who stole our things!"
Chen Kangren scoffed, “Brother Gu, you’re wrong. What do you mean by ‘unclaimed’? Anything unclaimed belongs to our organization.”
"As for your claim that you buried these things, can you prove that you buried them?"
"Alright, I'll give you one chance now. Either you hand over everything you've hidden, or I can pretend nothing happened."
"However, if you don't know what's good for you, then I'll have no choice but to invite you back for tea."
After listening to Gu Weiguo and Fang Junfeng's words today, Chen Kangren outwardly agreed to their request, but he was also giving them a chance.
If they honestly hand over half of their assets, he will naturally escort them away. However, if they are ungrateful and try to take him for a fool, then sorry, he doesn't want half, he wants all of it!
It happened naturally.
Now he's completely abandoned all pretense of civility.
Gu Weiguo and Fang Junfeng turned pale instantly; they never expected Chen Kangren to say such a thing.
Was the ransom killed?
Gu Weiguo took several deep breaths, then put on a fawning expression: "Director Chen, you must be joking, right? What kind of relationship do we have? You don't need to treat us like this, do you?"
"Alright, Director Chen, once I get back, I'll immediately send you half of the remaining assets in my household!"
"Should we just let this go like this? What do you think?"
"You know, we're in a real bind right now. We have absolutely no idea who took away the things we buried here."
"Otherwise, we would have given half of it to you, Director Chen, as soon as we dug it out."
As Gu Weiguo finished speaking, he tugged at Fang Junfeng.
Although Fang Junfeng was very dissatisfied, he could only grit his teeth and say, under pressure from Chen Kangren's power, "Director Chen, Wei Guo is right. We will send half of our remaining family assets to you as soon as we get back. We will not shortchange you by even a little bit."
"And the things here, we really did get stolen, and we still haven't found the culprit!"
Chen Kangren said with a half-smile, "Didn't you just say that the family property here was stolen by whose father-in-law?"
"Oh, it was your father-in-law, the Fang family patriarch, who stole it."
"Here's what I'll give you two days. If you can retrieve the wealth belonging to our organization within two days and deliver it to my home, then our cooperation will still stand. At that time, you only need to hand over half of your family's assets, and then we will escort you out of Beijing."
"Of course, if you don't know what's good for you... I'll invite you back for tea right now!"
"You have one minute to test yourselves: are you coming back with us for tea, or are you going to help our organization recover this lost treasure?"
Upon hearing Chen Kangren's words, Gu Weiguo and Fang Junfeng turned red and white, staring intently at Chen Kangren.
They never expected Chen Kangren to go to such lengths.
