Tycoon War God

”Venerable Master, we are ready!” Cheng Bugui walked in and reported to Lin Mu.

Lin Mu nodded. ”How are the preparations in Jiangling coming along?”

”Everything is ready. The Venerable Master may proceed to Jiangling at any time,” Cheng Bugui replied respectfully, but then he hesitated, looking as if he wanted to say more.

”Speak your mind,” Lin Mu said.

”Why doesn’t the Venerable Master simply reveal his identity to go to Jiangling? Why go to all this trouble?” Having asked the question, Cheng Bugui immediately lowered his head, his back breaking out in a cold sweat. He instantly regretted asking.

Lin Mu didn’t get angry. Instead, he just smiled faintly. ”I want to uproot the Fang Family completely, to make them regret ever laying a hand on my family.”

「Boheng Pharma.」

Because Su Ke’er had proactively helped Qin Corporation, Boheng Pharma was also targeted and repeatedly suppressed by the Fang Family and other major corporations.

Now, several of Boheng Pharma’s development projects had been obstructed for various reasons and ground to a halt. Even the sales of some health products and medicines that were successfully developed and ready for market were now under attack. Boheng Pharma was on the brink of collapse. The reason was simple: a few enterprises and small companies saw an opportunity to acquire it and were taking an aggressive stance.

Inside the Boheng Pharma boardroom, Su Ke’er’s pretty face was dark as she looked at the representatives sitting across from her. The heads of East China Technology and Xinglong Real Estate were among them.

”I’m sorry, Director Lin isn’t here,” she said. ”I can’t make decisions on these matters. We’ll have to wait for his return to discuss them further.”

”President Su, let’s be frank.” The representative from East China Technology, a middle-aged man, pointed to a document on the table. ”Our two companies operate in different fields and have no private grievances. The merger we’re proposing is a win-win for everyone.” He smiled confidently. ”I really can’t imagine any other company offering such a fair price.”

”I wouldn’t be so sure, Manager Sun.” The representative from Xinglong Real Estate, a woman who still possessed a mature charm, held up a bottle of medicine developed by Boheng Pharma. ”When it comes to strength, Xinglong Real Estate is certainly no weaker than East China Technology. Furthermore, we are planning a transformation and have already dedicated significant resources to promoting and selling Boheng Pharma’s projects. Honestly, if our chairman wasn’t confident in Boheng Pharma’s products, he wouldn’t have even asked about them, let alone sent me here to negotiate.”

Su Ke’er said coldly, ”If that’s the case, why are you here? Isn’t it just because Director Lin is away and Qin Corporation is in trouble that you’ve come to kick us while we’re down?”

”President Su, there’s no point in saying that,” said Manager Sun. ”If you don’t agree to the merger, Boheng Pharma will declare bankruptcy within three days. I’m sure you don’t want to see that happen, do you?”

Manager Wen from Xinglong Real Estate added, ”You said it yourself. The Jiangling Fang Family is moving against the Qin Family, and who knows where your Director Lin has disappeared to. How much longer do you think Boheng Pharma can possibly hold on?”

”Three days? I think that’s being generous,” Manager Wen sneered. ”Think about it. How long did it take for even the mighty Qin Corporation to fall from its peak to the brink of collapse?”

Su Ke’er’s expression turned ugly. She knew they were right. But they can forget about acquiring Boheng Pharma!

How much had she given for this company? How much had Lin Mu given? She would never allow Boheng Pharma to fall into anyone else’s hands. The problem, however, was that Lin Mu had vanished, and the Fang Family was attacking Qin Corporation. For some reason, several of Boheng Pharma’s shareholders were also unreachable, as if they had met with some accident. Right now, only a handful of people were struggling to keep the company afloat.

”President Su, let me give you another piece of news,” Manager Wen said suddenly. ”That Manager Liu of yours, wasn’t he sent to Jiangbei? Your company is in a crisis, yet he hasn’t even called to ask what’s going on. Aren’t you the least bit curious?”

”What?” Su Ke’er was shocked. ”You dare to touch Manager Liu? Aren’t you afraid of Director Lin coming back to settle the score?”

Manager Sun and Manager Wen exchanged a smile. ”This is just normal business competition. Even if your Director Lin comes back, what can he do?” Smug, triumphant smiles spread across both their faces.

Boheng Pharma was preparing to establish a branch in Jiangbei, an endeavor they had invested a great deal of capital and manpower into. If headquarters ran into trouble, the branch would surely face problems as well. Liu Zijian wouldn’t be able to hold out much longer in Jiangbei. The move by East China Technology and Xinglong Real Estate was designed to force Su Ke’er’s hand. They didn’t dare target Qin Corporation directly because of the Jiangling Fang Family’s power, not to mention that both the Luo and Chen families were eager to carve a slice from the big cake that was Qin Corporation. East China Technology and Xinglong Real Estate planned to snatch up Boheng Pharma before anyone else could react.

”What can I do? Didn’t your chairmen tell you before you came?”

Just as Su Ke’er was reaching the peak of her anxiety, a calm voice suddenly drifted in from outside. The office door was pushed open, and a young man slowly walked in.

”President Su, your employees are incredibly rude!” Manager Wen snapped. ”We’re in the middle of a discussion, and he just barges in without knocking. Does he have no manners at all!”

Clearly, Su Ke’er had been on the verge of agreeing, only for this person to interrupt. Thinking this, Manager Wen’s glare at the newcomer grew even more hostile.

When Su Ke’er saw the man, however, her whole body trembled slightly, and her eyes reddened with emotion.

”Lin Mu...”

Lin Mu nodded, walked over to sit beside Su Ke’er, and leaned back in his chair. He looked at the company representatives across from them.

”What do you want to discuss? I’ll talk with you.”

His voice was calm, with almost no trace of anger. But Su Ke’er knew these companies were doomed. At the same time, a wave of relief washed over her. For some reason, as long as Lin Mu was here, no problem seemed too great.

”Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to talk to us!” Manager Sun sneered.

”I’m the chairman of this company. You tell me if I’m qualified.” Lin Mu glanced indifferently at the representatives, whose expressions had changed drastically. ”However, I’ve just realized that you aren’t qualified to talk to me. Therefore, I’m going to invite your chairmen to come talk to me instead!”

He then ordered, ”Go. Bring the chairmen and responsible parties from these companies here. If a single one is missing, don’t bother coming back!”

Cheng Bugui, Liang Yue, and the others immediately acknowledged the order and hurried out to ”invite” their guests.

”Kid, who are you trying to fool?” Manager Sun scoffed. ”You think that’s enough to scare us? Let me tell you straight: you’re signing this contract today, whether you like it or not!”

Lin Mu grinned. ”The last person who said that to me has already been reincarnated. You want to be next?”
