"Around twenty?" It shocked Zhang Hui to find out the number. Not only him, the other seniors of the Zhang family are also stunned to hear that number and spit their tea.
"Look young man"
"You can call me by my name Mr. Zhang" Wang Wei interrupted old man Zhang. If it is anybody that is breaking him, he would have already beaten that person to death.
"Okay. I'll call you Xiao Wei then" he responded with a broad smile, shocking the Zhang group members.
"Xiao Wei, I heard your story from Xiao Jiang. About what you did today, I will not ask you anything regarding it. All we care about is Hugo. Because of the whole explosion, the police didn't find the identities of the people that are burned to death. So are you sure that Hugo is dead in that blast?" Zhang Hui asked seriously, directly staring into Wang Wei's eyes.
"Yes. I can guarantee that Hugo is dead. He died in front of my eyes. But I only ask two things from your family, a share in the Hugo's assets and to keep my identity as secret in all this. Even if any family pressured you about this, I don't want my name to come out" Wang Wei said, looking at the people meeting in the room.
"We promised this before, and we are promising you now. We Zhang's will never abandon or beneficiaries. Hugo is one of our major competitors in this city and though we are much stronger than those thugs, he had the backing of some people who we can't go against. So we turned a blind eye to him. But now you took care of him leaving no trails that can lead back to us.
Even though everyone thinks it is the Zhang family who did this, they don't have any proof to prove that and even if anything creeps up the Zhang family will take the fall for you" said Zhang Hui slowly but with a vigor in his tone and immediately Wang Wei can see that the other elders are also nodding as sign of agreeing with Old Zhang.
Suddenly Wang Wei stood up and bowed toward old Zhang. "Thank You" he said firmly. Zhang Hui impressed seeing Wang Wei's response and everyone can see this emotion in old Zhang's eyes clearly.
"No need for all this. You can sit," he said to Wang Wei, smiling.
"Okay. Now, that is cleared, let's talk business," old Zhang said and instantly the people sitting in the room took out huge bundles of papers out of their briefcases. It dumbfounded Wang Wei to see all this.
"Mr. Zhang, don't you think it is too late for us to do this. Why don't we discuss this tomorrow? Zhang Jiang and I can go through, there is no need for you elders to spend your time on these small things" Wang Wei said politely.
But inside he is famished. After, his increase in strength and by also forcing himself into the fight before Wang Wei became too hungry. He thought of grabbing some dinner on the way but he doesn't have enough money with him to eat to his fill.
So he specifically asked Xiong to inform the villa's chefs to prepare a huge portion of dinner with an enormous amount of meat. Seeing those bundles of papers, Wang Wei immediately realized that the Zhang group members want to discuss on how to share Hugo's assets. So even though he might seem rude, he asked them to postpone this till tomorrow.
Hearing what Wang Wei said, the elders paused what they are doing and instantly looked towards Zhang Hui, because he is the decision maker for them.
"Grand Pa, Wei is very busy in the morning. With all these things, he must be exhausted. As he suggested we'll did with this tomorrow" Zhang Jiang chimed in the support of Wang Wei.
"This involves billions of yuan, do you think we will leave this immense sum to you kids" Zhang Feng, Zhang Jiang's father bellowed.
"Feng," old Zhang said slowly but instantly Zhang Feng kept quiet hearing his father.
"Billions? How did Hugo have that much money?" Wang Wei said with visible shock on his face.
*sigh*
"Do you think we are all here just to tally some pennies?" one elder said with a sigh and smiling at Wang Wei.
"Hugo is a fund manager before he became a thug. So he has a lot of investments both legally and illegally. We already gained all his illegal assets," another elder said again dealing a blow to Wang Wei's brain.
"Fund manager? Hugo?" Wang Yong yelled with surprise whereas it dazed Wang Wei to hear this. Not the Wang brothers, even Zhang Jiang is also shocked to hear this.
Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!
Instantly, everyone in the room laughed, looking at the trio's expressions and the heavy mood in the room has disappeared.
"You young men should learn a lot. Never judge a book by its cover" said another elder laughing.
"Anyway, the problem is with the legal assets, and Hugo invested most of his money. So we are trying to acquire them through various means so it will take sometime," Zhang Feng said.
"Why don't you create a fake child for Hugo and make him inherit Hugo's shares" Wang Yong said suddenly, and his idea startled himself.
"Sorry, I thought out loud," he said, but instantly he heard one of the elders
"Brilliant. That's an excellent idea. We can create a fake child. Hugo is in Jinhua for over twenty-five years and he slept with a lot of women. Though it may seem hard, we can manage".
Immediately, everyone in the room discussed and reviewed the feasibility of the plan.
After five minutes again the villa went to silence
"Both the brothers are geniuses" one elder praised, looking at Wang Wei and Wang Yong making them embarrassed.
"Maybe leaving this matter to the kids might not be a bad thing" Zhang Hui said, looking at Zhang Feng.
"Anyway, the Shanghai Stock Exchange is mostly influenced by the Bai family and we don't have any connections with them" said the elder who told Wang Wei about Hugo's past job.
"Isn't it the Bai family that is constructing mountain villas in Yongkang mountains?" an elder asked
"Yongkang mountains? Construction?" it puzzled Wang Wei hearing that elder.
"Are you talking about the mountains between Wuyi county and Yongkang city?" Wang Wei asked with a puzzled expression.
"Oh! Wei, you just came from Yongkang city, right?" Zhang Jiang remembered what Xiong told him before and asked Wang Wei. For which Wang Wei nodded.
"The Shanghai Bai family is one of the most powerful financial families in East China. Apparently, they want to construct mountain view villas just like our Heaven's Garden near Wuyi county. But I heard that the construction site is way inside the mountains. How did you know about it?" Zhang Feng asked, confused.
But Wang Wei is even more confused because he clearly knows that it is the Luo family that is doing excavations over there.
"Xiao Wei, is there anything you want to say?" Zhang Hui observed the confused look on Wang Wei's face and asked him.
"Mr. Zhang, can I speak with you privately for a minute?" he asked
"Sure," said Zhang Hui and both of them went into a room, leaving the people in the living room confused.
"What is it, Xiao Wei?" Old Zhang asked him immediately after entering the room.
"Mr. Zhan-"
"Call me Grandpa. You are just like Xiao Jiang to me" Zhang Hui interrupted Wang Wei.
Wang Wei didn't go into pleasantries and directly went to the point.
"Grandpa Zhang, I went to the construction site you are speaking about?" Wang Wei said
"You? why?"
"That Hugo lackey is hiding there, so went there to kill him. But that's not the point. That construction site does not belong to the Bai family. It is Luo family," Wang Wei said with confusion.
"Which Luo? There is only one-. Wait, did you just said Luo family?" Zhang Hui asked with his eyes opened wide.
"Yes. Luo family," Wang Wei replied casually
"S***"
