Chapter 1526: Chapter 1526: Ready to Make a Move
It’s clear that Gang Qiang is the key figure among the three.
Although each of them has different objectives, they now share a common goal, which is to prevent Xu Ke from becoming the new chairman.
Only by eliminating Xu Ke can their goal progressively materialize.
"Xu Ke’s grandfather is indeed ruthless. Today, he explicitly aimed at establishing prestige for his grandson! Disregarding former ties, he made us look so bad in front of his grandson."
Despite Wang Lishan’s complaints, his mind was crystal clear.
Of course, Xu Ke’s grandfather favors his own grandson, while for the few of them, at best, they have some acquaintance with him.
If a real conflict arises, Xu Ke’s grandfather wouldn’t hesitate to throw them out.
"This matter cannot be rushed. We can only proceed with meticulous planning, step by step. Xu Ke’s status is special; if any mistake occurs, it could have far-reaching consequences."
Zhang Qiang had already thought it through; he must be sure before acting, otherwise, a rash move would only expose them completely.
"Zhang Qiang is right. Xu Ke is now the prominent figure of the Xu Family, something we cannot touch at the moment. We must find his vulnerability, or make him too scared to speak of this matter. Otherwise, they will hardly have another chance." Li Dong echoed from the side.
Xu Ke’s vulnerability? This stumped everyone.
They didn’t understand Xu Ke at all, you could even say they knew nothing about him.
Xu Ke’s grandfather had never mentioned this grandson in front of them; today was Xu Ke’s first time at the company.
"That’s simple, I’ll have my men investigate. Although they might not find much, those around him should know something."
As Wang Lishan spoke, he picked up his phone and called his subordinates.
Soon after, Wang Lishan signaled to the other two, indicating everything was settled.
"I’ve checked, Xu Ke’s status in the Xu Family is indeed very high. His grandfather has already delegated most of the family authority to him. However, Xu Ke has a girlfriend named Xiao Keyi, whom he cares deeply about. We can exploit this person; if anything happens to her, Xu Ke definitely won’t ignore it."
Wang Lishan’s gaze was sinister, clearly indicating he was up to something big this time.
Xu Ke’s girlfriend? They really hadn’t thought of this angle.
After all, they didn’t know Xiao Keyi. They were unaware of her relationship with Xu Ke.
"You just mentioned Xiao Keyi; what exactly is her background? We must understand it clearly before we can act."
Zhang Qiang didn’t let emotions cloud his judgment; he remained extremely calm.
"You guys don’t need to worry. Although Xiao Keyi’s family is quite prominent, their base is not in Beijing. Here, she has no other support besides Xu Ke."
Wang Lishan evidently did his due diligence, even uncovering Xiao Keyi’s background.
With everything laid out, there’s no reason not to act.
The three now felt compelled to act, wanting to ensure Xu Ke’s downfall.
Daring to touch their interests without checking if the old-timers agreed.
"Let’s proceed according to Wang Lishan’s plan: find a chance to kidnap Xiao Keyi. I refuse to believe Xu Ke wouldn’t care about his girlfriend."
Zhang Qiang’s words made it clear; this action requires all three to move together, and even if something goes wrong, they must face it together.
Li Dong was particularly shrewd, always weighing his gains before acting.
Even with Zhang Qiang, he held personal motives.
Especially at such a critical point, he certainly wouldn’t reveal all his cards.
Even if things go south, he’d leave himself an escape route.
"Zhang Qiang, since the plan is set, next we should think about how to kidnap Xiao Keyi. Xu Ke is almost always by her side; it’s hard for us to act with just a few of us."
Zhang Qiang had already anticipated this; they wouldn’t show themselves for such deeds.
This is something others must do; if anything happens, they can easily distance themselves, thus sparing them any trouble.
"Are you silly? Of course, we won’t do it ourselves. We should hire others and just supervise from behind."
Wang Lishan’s mind was crystal clear, as he’d already figured out the implementation.
"Oh! Wang Lishan since you’ve said so, you must have a strategy. Why don’t you share it, let us brothers see what great method you have."
Zhang Qiang was already impatient; with Xu Ke out of the picture, he could finally find peace.
The moment Wang Lishan saw Xu Ke, he knew what he must do.
At that time, it was just him, and he wasn’t completely confident. But now with teammates, the plan must be executed swiftly.
"Actually, I’ve already thought of the plan; Xu Ke’s unique status means we can’t appear in person. But I happen to know a security team leader within the group. Don’t underestimate this leader; he’s quite skilled. His team has many people like him. If they act, this task will surely succeed. However, it might be costly, and that’s up to the two gentlemen here."
Wang Lishan spoke clearly; he could find the manpower, but surely he couldn’t pay all the expenses alone.
The three present were shrewd as ever; how could they take a loss willingly and let others benefit?
"Wang Lishan, what are you talking about? How could we brothers let you take a loss financially? Tell us how much is needed, we’ll transfer it right now."
Zhang Qiang spoke confidently, indicating that money was insignificant to him.
"Zhang Qiang is right; tell us the price, we’ll transfer the money immediately. As long as we can deal with Xu Ke, we’re willing to pay no matter how expensive it is."
Seeing the two so forthcoming, Wang Lishan promptly disclosed the price.
"I’ve intended to negotiate with them for a discount, but it’ll still cost around six million."
Upon hearing the price, Zhang Qiang and Li Dong’s expressions changed instantly.
No matter how they imagined, they didn’t expect kidnapping someone would cost six million, and although they didn’t mind the money, they felt the price was somewhat high.
