“Do you know what it means to be a Xiao Family Forbidden Guard?
If you want a bodyguard, I can find one for you.
As long as you can pay, I can find an expert.”
Xiao Chen shook his head, “The Xiao Family Forbidden Guards are never lent out.
Of course, you can ask him.
If he’s willing, I wouldn’t stop him from making big money.”
Zhang Yan looked at the guard, “I’ll pay you one million a month.
All you have to do is protect my mother!”
One million a month adds up to more than ten million a year, which is indeed a lot.
The guard did not make a sound.
Zhang Yan gritted his teeth, “You know, the Zhang Family is now in decline, but I still have some private money.
At most, two million a month, more than twenty million a year.
Plus, you can have any house, car, or woman you want.
I will satisfy your demands.”
If this had been when he was at the Yanzi Sect, he would have definitely agreed to such generous terms.
And without hesitation.
But now, the guard just coldly glanced at Zhang Yan and said, “I am a Xiao Family Forbidden Guard.”
Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, not understanding the guard’s implications.
Xiao Chen lightly smiled, “Being a Xiao Family Forbidden Guard certainly doesn’t come with such generous terms, and it also involves the danger of death.
The work is very hard, and you don’t get much respect.”
“It doesn’t matter!”
The guard shook his head, “What matters is that I am a Xiao Family Forbidden Guard.
That’s enough.”
Let alone the current benefits being decent, with a yearly income of a million and plenty of bonuses,
Even without these, simply serving Lord War God would make him willing to work for free.
Zhang Yan was stunned.
He seemed to understand somewhat but was even more confused.
Xiao Family Forbidden Guard, just a vain name, just a title, is it really that important?
For the sake of this title, forsake money?
Houses?
Women?
He didn’t understand!
“You’ll understand later!”
Xiao Chen smiled and said, “They don’t serve me, but fight for the glory in their hearts.
Offering them money is an insult to them.
If I weren’t here, you might’ve been beaten up by now.”
Zhang Yan took a deep breath.
He thought he had understood the terror of Xiao Chen, but now realized he actually knew nothing.
Xiao Chen’s terror was far beyond his imagination.
“Don’t worry about the bodyguard matter.
I said I would protect your mother, so no one can touch her.”
Xiao Chen said lightly.
“Yes!”
Zhang Yan nodded, letting go of the matter.
“Boss, I’m afraid our troubles are about to come.”
Ziyi had just received a report from Sky Net and had come to inform Xiao Chen.
“Speak!”
Xiao Chen said.
“Since they can’t succeed by force, they’re planning to use their authority.
If they get involved with officials, many things will really become difficult to handle.”
Ziyi said.
“I understand.”
Xiao Chen smiled slightly, is it power and position they want to use against him?
Comparer power and status with him?
“Sir, aren’t you worried at all?
The Hao League’s status in Jincheng is extremely high.
If they decide to use their methods, many times, force won’t solve the problem.
The more force is used, the more complicated things will become.”
Zhang Yan worriedly said.
“Zhang Yan, go make me a pot of tea.
Let’s change it up, make it Jinjunmei.
Tieguanyin is good, but too much of it and you get tired of it.”
Xiao Chen responded irrelevantly.
But Zhang Yan did not say much.
Because he knew the more Xiao Chen acted this way, the more it meant he was not afraid at all.
“Yes!”
Zhang Yan went to make tea.
Yet his heart was filled with anticipation; he had witnessed the Xiao Family’s military strength, which was in no way inferior to a Silver Aristocrat Family, perhaps even stronger.
However, the most terrifying aspect of the Hao League was their influence and the expansive network they had established.
They had people in all sectors; as soon as they utilized them, it would cause great trouble for the Xiao Family.
How were they to counter this?
“Let’s invite Old Chen over for a seat.
It would be a shame to enjoy this fine Da Hong Pao tea alone.”
Xiao Chen smiled and took out his phone, “Old Chen, fine Da Hong Pao tea is ready.
Come taste it at the factory, and use the back door when you arrive.”
At the Hao League, a group of executives sat together with grim expressions.
“Gentlemen, discuss what should be done next.
The Zhang Family is storing all our Gold, and you all are well aware of what else they hold.”
“But Zhang Yan has experts protecting him.
Should we send a Great Grandmaster?”
“Dispatching a Great Grandmaster would be troublesome, as it could stir up a lot.
Instead, I suggest utilizing our network, first forcing the Xiao Family out of Jincheng.
“After that, it would be easy to deal with the Zhang Family.”
“That’s right, it should be done this way!”
“The Xiao Family still hasn’t made a move, which means they also don’t know where the Gold is.”
“Has everything been arranged with President Chen?” Nangong Yu suddenly asked.
“Head of Nangong Family, rest assured, it’s all taken care of.
As president of the Jincheng Workers’ Union, President Chen is responsible for production safety and workers’ welfare in Jincheng.
“Shutting down any factory is a very simple matter for him,” Qiu Long smiled.
This time, with the fall of the Zhang Family, the Qiu Family benefited the most.
Not only did they recruit several of the Zhang Family’s top experts, but they also acquired all of Zhang Family’s stakes within the Xifeng Group.
“That’s good.
Xinmeng Group thinks they can stabilize their foothold in Jincheng just by finding a loophole to sneak in.
Little do they know, this isn’t a place anyone can just waltz into!” Nangong Yu said coldly.
Everyone in the meeting room also gave a smirk.
While one should not recklessly reveal their military strength, the time had come to utilize their connections.
Soon, at the entrance of Xinmeng Pharmaceutical’s Jincheng plant, several cars stopped.
From the cars, a dozen people alighted.
Leading them was a man with a belly resembling someone six or seven months pregnant.
He wore glasses and on his wrist was a shiny Swiss mechanical watch, a designer brand worth at least two hundred thousand.
In any other place, he might have already been called “Watch Brother” and investigated directly.
But this was Jincheng, and with the Hao League around, this was a non-issue.
President Chen glanced at the factory and let out a cold sneer, “Coming to Jincheng to set up a factory and not even visiting him, Xinmeng Group really doesn’t know how to behave or show manners.”
“President, should we directly affix the seal?”
Several workers held up the seal in their hands.
“You need some sort of reason first, let’s go in and take a look.
I quite want to see what expressions Xinmeng Group’s people will have when I seal their factory.
“They should learn their lesson.”
President Chen chuckled and began walking towards the factory, his belly trembling with every step.
He was from the Jincheng Chen Family.
The Chen Family was only a Bronze Aristocrat Family.
Previously, he was subservient to Zhang Fei.
Now that Zhang Fei was finished, and the Zhang Family was done for, he couldn’t wait to exact revenge and had the full support of the entire Hao League.
This was definitely a great opportunity to make a public appearance.
If he managed this well, not only would he earn praise from the Hao League, leading to promotions and ennoblement but his family would benefit too, dramatically rising in status.
With the Zhang Family gone, someone had to fill their place, why couldn’t it be his Chen Family?
