Chapter 303: Gathering Information
When the old man heard this, he subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. Since the news came from Lu Ming Corporation, it definitely had credibility, especially since the source was one of the executives! He felt that this was really good news, and the huge pressure he felt was greatly reduced.
His eyes lit up again as he said, “Old Xin, it seems like one has to be humble. Otherwise, one will fail into the gutter sooner or later. Tsk, tsk, tsk. What a pity. Why didn’t anyone warn him? Or does he really know what he’s doing?”
Although he pretended to speak for Lu Ming, the gloating on his face was too obvious.
He suppressed his excitement and said, “The money that Lu Ming Corporation earned last time will probably be lost, right? I remember that it was reported in the news that just the sale of the smart appliances broke the record for the highest sales in the industry. I thought that he would make a move next! I didn’t expect him to court death.”
“I’m afraid someone gave him a bad idea.”
If he knew who this person was, he would definitely thank him properly! Who asked Lu Ming Corporation to suppress the Tang family? With Lu Ming’s background, if something happened, who would be willing to help other than Tang Mingkun’s family?
But it was uncertain if Tang Mingkun, that old fellow, was willing to let his Tang family be dragged down for such a young lad! At that time, the importance of family would come into play. At least, if something happened to his company, his four daughters would definitely be able to help a lot. Of course, that excluded his third daughter.
Although Old Xin didn’t know what Tang Boyan was thinking, he seemed to be in a good mood. He said, “I’m not too sure about that. If someone really did that, I don’t think it would be that Miss Chu. I heard that Miss Chu inherited CEO Han’s methods and is a clear-headed person, but I didn’t hear of Boss Lu Ming having a mistress outside.”
This made him feel a little confused. That couple had a very good relationship. Could it be that Lu Ming really made such a decision in a moment of confusion? Why did he feel that he could not see through this young man anymore?
“Humans make mistakes and horses stumble. I’ve been in the business world for so many years and have failed many times. This is just the beginning! He will suffer more later!”
So what if the mall really opened? At most, he would find some troublemakers to cause trouble. Don’t forget, the capital was his Tang family’s territory! Since Lu Ming set up shop right under his nose, he couldn’t blame him for being heartless! After all, he had lost so much money, so he had to get back at the owner of the mall!
The two of them chatted for a while more. After sending off his good friend, Tang Boyan finally couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Lu Ming! You’ve finally fallen into my hands. Didn’t I already kindly remind you? Don’t come to the capital personally, or else…
I’ll make sure you never return!”
What could I do if you don’t listen? You’ve walked right into the trap. You’re really stupid!
After a while, his lips curled up. He looked at the woman standing motionless on the second floor and said, “No. 5, what do you think Lu Ming is doing? Does he really want to build a mall there? Or are these rumors just smoke bombs to prevent us from digging deeper?”
Tang Yajing crossed her arms on the armrest and said, “If it’s the latter, I don’t know what he intends to do, so I’m more inclined to believe the former.”
Even she was starting to feel a little confused. What’s going on with Lu Ming? She never thought that he would do such a stupid thing, but the truth was that construction work had already started. Could it be that she had misjudged him? That was impossible, right? She believed in her own judgment, but what was going on now?
Curiosity and doubt almost made her call Chu Jinyu to ask. However, given their relationship, even if she put her pride aside, the other party would probably not tell her the truth. So if she wanted to know the truth, she had to wait until the day the mall was built!
She began to pray. It had better not be anything unexpected.
…
As time passed, high-tech skyscrapers appeared near the center of Shaping County. Seeing that the buildings were becoming less and less like shopping malls or entertainment facilities, someone finally couldn’t wait any longer and hurriedly sent someone to investigate the situation.
When a thin young man in a short-sleeved shirt arrived at his destination, he looked left and right before locking his gaze on the guard closest to him. Immediately, a solicitous smile appeared on his face. He quickly walked forward and said, “Brother, are you in charge of supervising this place?”
The guard looked him up and down. Before he could say anything, the other party deftly took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Then he handed him a cigarette. “Come, come, come. You’ve worked hard. Can I ask what your working hours are? How long will you be on duty? Your monthly salary should be alright, right? Actually, I’ve been unemployed recently and want to find a good job. Do you need people here?
By the way, my surname is Luo. You can call me Little Luo. What about you, brother?”
“Zhou.”
Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes and retracted his gaze. When Lu Ming heard that he would be resting for the next half a month, he called him over to guard the place. It just so happened that he didn’t have to do anything. As long as he sat here, he could get a considerable amount of money every month. Why not? However, he didn’t expect that more and more people would come to inquire about the news recently. The cigarettes he received could be sold at a stall!
“I start work here at eight o’clock. When I get off work is up to me. If I have something to attend to, I leave early. If I have nothing to do, I stay until night. As for my salary, it’s indeed very good. By the way, what did you do before? Were you a general worker or an architect? If it’s the latter, then there’s no job for you.”
Now that the construction was almost completed, Lu Ming was very satisfied with everything. It was not possible that there would be any reconstruction. In addition, he was quite short of people a few days ago because of the rush, but now he only had one last job left. Wouldn’t it be crazy to hire someone now?
The reason why he did not say that there was no shortage of workers was purely because he was indifferent.
Little Luo didn’t seem to understand what he was implying. He said, “My previous job was at a construction site. I was building an apartment or something. Because the contractor didn’t pay me, I left in a fit of anger. I heard that you’re building a mall here? There are quite a lot of houses. Those who don’t know might think that it’s a residential neighborhood.”
It seemed like this was the best the Tang family could do.
Why did he know that Little Luo was sent by the Tang family? It was only because many companies had sent people here, leaving only the Tang family to bide their time. Therefore, the most likely person to have sent him over was Tang Boyan. He probably wanted to wait and see, but the direction that things were going was beyond his imagination.
