Chapter 2300: Chapter 654: Mr. Yi, Come Home_3
Arhan looked at the faintly smiling An Yiqing and thought of the plan from just now; his blood was boiling. After waiting so many years, he was finally about to realize his dream!
A few days later, all of the Anpei Family’s businesses in Xuandu City and Country Zi were ruthlessly suppressed. The suppressor didn’t bother to hide their identity: Zhang Yuksheng, general manager of Xuanjin Yulong Group, openly declared that the Anpei Family Head, Anpei Lan, was heartless and unjust, and that from now on all Anpei Family industries would be Xuanjin Yulong’s primary targets for suppression.
At the same time, the Bruch Family’s overt forces in Country Zi also began a frenzied crackdown on the Anpei Family. In less than three days, several of the Anpei Family’s stocks hit the lower limit again and again, triggering panic in the eyes of the investors.
Anpei Lan had originally been planning to return to Country Fei, but this sudden economic suppression left him too busy to get away. Fortunately, the Anpei Family had deep roots and many highly capable managers behind it, which allowed each business sector to quickly regain stability.
However, just when everyone in the Anpei Family finally breathed a sigh of relief, an unknown force suddenly and brutally severed the supply chains feeding the Anpei Family’s industries! The major businesses under the Anpei Family lost all channels for purchasing raw materials; orders piled up in the factories, stacked sky-high, but there was no way to fulfill them. Many longtime clients who had cooperated with the Anpei Family for years pulled their funds in anger after being stood up again and again, stating they would never work with the Anpei Family again. In just a single week, many well‑known large foreign companies actually terminated their partnerships with the Anpei Family across the board.
To uncover the background of that unknown force, Anpei Lan went several days and nights without closing his eyes. He ordered his managers to find alternative sources for raw materials, but they were turned away everywhere they went. This was just too bizarre! How powerful was the other side, to actually monopolize their entire raw‑materials market!
"Investigate! Get it clear for me! Who the hell is it!"
While Anpei Lan was tearing his hair out over this unknown force, Gu Yelin, in distant Xuanjin Xuandu City, had just woken up a few days earlier. He was currently sitting in the Hongci Office; in front of him, Cao Xiaosha, Tan Yulin and the others each had a laptop, gathered around him.
"Boss, timing’s about right. The losses the Anpei Family took this round will take them at least a few years to make back," Cao Xiaosha said as he clacked away at the keyboard, sighing to himself. You can offend anyone, just don’t offend An Yiqing. Their big boss had barely woken up before he started going after the Anpei Family, sparing no expense to completely monopolize all raw‑materials sectors related to the Anpei Family’s industrial inputs, all just to choke Anpei Lan to death and avenge his woman.
Tsk tsk, so petty, so violent.
Gu Yelin, eyes flicking over the screen a line at a glance, nodded lightly and said in a low voice, "Close the net. Raise the prices."
A few minutes later, far away in Country Bai, Anpei Lan received word that the unknown force had finally loosened up and raw materials were once again being supplied normally. Except there had been a slight adjustment in price. Those raw materials were now a full two times higher than before!
What’s wrong? Too expensive? Then don’t buy! We’ve got more channels than we know what to do with anyway!
Fury surged through Anpei Lan, but he was helpless. There was no choice—so many business partners were clamoring to end their cooperation that even if these raw materials cost a fortune, he still had to buy them!
Forcing down his rage, Anpei Lan ordered his people to purchase all the raw materials at the set price, and the industries under his name finally resumed normal production. However, many of their famous partners had already canceled their cooperation; making up for this loss would take a great deal of effort.
Gu Yelin neither knew nor cared about Anpei Lan’s distress and anger. All he knew was that his precious girl had almost been killed by the Anpei Family’s people. He was leaving Anpei Lan to An Yiqing, but if he didn’t flay at least one layer of skin off the Anpei Family, he couldn’t swallow this breath.
"Hey, Boss, where are you going?!" Seeing Gu Yelin stand and leave, Tan Yulin hurriedly called out.
Gu Yelin didn’t look back. Striding out of the base, he left behind just two cold words—"Going abroad."
...
These past few days, An Yiqing hadn’t been idle for a moment. While having Zhang Yuksheng and the Bruch Family join forces to crush the Anpei Family, she took advantage of Anpei Lan being too busy to cope and led the Thirteen Blood Generals to pay the arms kingpin Smith a "tender" visit.
After nearly ten days of An Yiqing’s storm‑like surprise attacks, Smith was on the verge of collapse. At the moment, he was holed up in an abandoned high‑rise with a few bodyguards, waiting for the next strike that could fall at any time.
