Chapter 107 Food Factory = Flour Warehouse
When Hongle's people found Lu Yongqiang, they were already prepared to turn against Lu Yongqiang.
So when Lu Yongqiang swept Hongle's territory, Hongle was not unprepared, but organized nearly a thousand people, but it was useless. Lu Yongqiang's men were too fierce. There were only more than two hundred people, and as soon as the two sides fought, Hongle's people were directly defeated, because Lu Yongqiang's men were not only all well-trained, but also divided into combat teams, some providing cover, some attacking, and everyone cooperated very tacitly.
When these gangsters fought in groups, they basically fought on their own. They had never encountered such a situation before, so the people from Hongle couldn't hold on for ten minutes and fled frantically. Then they were chased by Lu Yongqiang's people for two blocks.
It was this battle that scared the people of Hongle. One of the bosses actually ran away with his wife and children overnight. The remaining few people who were in charge also hid, fearing that Lu Yongqiang would liquidate Hongle and kill them all.
Just when these people were panicking, Lu Yongqiang actually gave the territory he had obtained to Hong Yi, which made the people of Hong Le breathe a sigh of relief. As long as Lu Yongqiang had no intention of taking the territory, he would not kill them all.
The next day, someone from Hongle found Han Bin and asked Han Bin to help mediate. They gave Lu Yongqiang two million yuan to settle the matter, which was considered a complete surrender.
Lu Yongqiang really did not intend to kill him. Since Hongle had surrendered and Han Bin had stepped in, and Han Bin was now his God of Wealth, Lu Yongqiang decided to stop while he was ahead and took the money. The feud with Hongle came to an end.
After solving the trouble with Lu Yongqiang, Hongle started to fight with Hongyi, and the two sides fought fiercely.
Afterwards, leaders of several other community groups in the alliance stepped forward to mediate, and the situation ended with Hongyi returning the street to Hongle. The two sides temporarily shook hands and made peace.
In this turmoil, Hongle's genie lamp, which was about to retire, emerged and became the leader of Hongle.
When he was young, this genie lamp was the most powerful man in Hongle. However, in the underworld, the more powerful a person is, the easier it is for him to be cheated. The same was true for this genie lamp. Under the calculation of some people, he almost died at the gunpoint of the police. After he came out of prison, he lost his ambition and focused on making some money and then immigrating.
This time Hongle really has no one. Several of Hongle’s uncles don’t want to watch Hongle become a dusk society, so they have to find Shen Deng, the former tough guy, to take the lead.
Although the magic lamp was disheartened and had stopped caring about the affairs of the martial arts world a long time ago, when the opportunity came, he couldn't help but stand up.
And this man was indeed capable. Although he had retired from the underworld for some time, he stood up and waved the flag, and immediately gathered more than a hundred people. After that, several uncles came forward and persuaded a big brother named Brother Niu to join the Magic Lamp, and the Magic Lamp easily gained four or five hundred subordinates.
Later, in the fight with Hong Yi, Shen Deng took the lead and led his men to kill a senior figure of Hong Yi, and also chopped Hong Yi's red stick, causing serious injuries.
That's how it was. The leader of Hongyi quickly organized people to negotiate peace, which led to the other members of the Yimeng coming out to mediate. The reason why Hongyi was willing to return the street to Hongle was that the loss was too great. If they continued to fight, even if they could win Hongle, Hongyi would almost have lost all their wealth in the end.
Although Shen Deng was a powerful man, Hongle suffered heavy losses after the battle with Lu Yongqiang, with nearly a hundred people injured. Now he had fought with Hongyi several times, and his family assets were almost drained. So he reluctantly agreed to the mediation of several members of Yimeng.
As for Lu Yongqiang, after selling Hongle's territory and venue to Hongyi, he brought people to the Smiling Tiger Food Company as a shareholder to cause trouble.
In Smiling Tiger's food company, that foreigner Carter is the major shareholder, holding 0.5% of the company's shares. Smiling Tiger is the second largest shareholder, holding % of the company's shares. As for Feihong and Piao Ge, each of them only holds % of the shares.
The reason why Carter wanted to cooperate with people in the society was to copy the sales model of Lu Yongqiang's food company.
In the company, Carter's people are in charge, while people like Smiling Tiger don't understand business at all and are only responsible for sales channels.
Now that Piao Ge is dead, Smiling Tiger has run away, and Feihong has withdrawn his shares, at this time, Lu Yongqiang brought people to the food company, and no one could stop him. The entire company allowed Lu Yongqiang to run rampant.
With no other choice, Carter had to come out and face Lu Yongqiang.
Although Carter is a foreigner, he does not have a very powerful background. He only has a deputy director of the tax bureau as his backer. The reason why he dared to target Lu Yongqiang is that he thinks that his status as a foreigner is superior to others and he looks down on Lu Yongqiang from the bottom of his heart.
But when Lu Yongqiang killed Brother Piao with thundering means, Carter was also frightened and was not strong when facing Lu Yongqiang.
"Mr. Lu, although you only own 10% of the food factory's shares, you are still a shareholder of the company. If you bring people to the company to cause trouble, it will not be a good thing for you if the company really goes bankrupt.
Mr. Lu, harmony brings wealth. Just tell me what you want. I will never refuse if I can do it."
After Carter finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang didn't hesitate and said, "Mr. Carter, I don't know if you've heard of the old Chinese saying, 'There's no room for two tigers in one mountain.' I already own a food company, and its closure wouldn't be a bad thing for me. So I don't have any requests, I just want it to close down sooner rather than later."
After hearing what Lu Yongqiang said, Carter thought about it for a moment and said, "Mr. Lu, I'm willing to pay 10 million to buy your 10% stake in the food factory. How about we just be friends? There's no need to kill each other, right?"
Lu Yongqiang shook his head and said, "Since we're all friends, how about this? I'll offer 15 million to buy out your shares, Mr. Carter. What do you think, Mr. Carter?"
"Fifteen million? You are robbing me. The company's current land is worth more than that." Carter shouted angrily.
The food factory was converted from an instant noodle factory owned by Carter. The land belonged to Carter at the time. In order to raise the value of the food factory and thus be able to win over Smiling Tiger and his men to work for him, Carter also included the land in the name of the food factory.
Carter's food factory has few worthwhile formulas. The formulas are worthless, and the production equipment is also worthless. So for the company, the most valuable thing is the land where the food factory is located.
Lu Yongqiang had someone estimate that the land alone was worth about 20 million yuan, and with the equipment, the entire food factory should be worth 25 million yuan.
If Carter was willing to spend 15 million, he wouldn't actually lose much, after all, he only owned 70% of the food factory's shares.
As soon as Carter finished speaking, without waiting for Lu Yongqiang to say anything, Duxie stepped forward and slapped Carter in the face. Then he said coldly, "You damn foreign devil, stop yelling! You were the one who provoked us first! The rules of the underworld are that after losing, you must admit your mistakes and stand at attention when you are beaten. Brother Qiang is so kind and is willing to give you 15 million. Believe it or not, I will kill your whole family and make you sell salted duck eggs."
Seeing the scorpion's ferocious look, Carter shuddered with fear and immediately said, "This food factory is just a branch of the Monchi Company. Although I own 70% of the shares of this branch, I can't make the decision on this matter alone. I need to discuss it with the directors of the Monchi Company."
As soon as Carter finished speaking, Scorpion stepped forward and slapped the foreigner again, then said sternly: "You are still not telling the truth. Monkie Company is your family business, and all the directors of the company are from your family. Now you tell me that you can't make the decision? It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin. Do you really think that I dare not kill you?" As he said that, Scorpion took out the pistol from his waist.
When Duxie pulled out his gun, Lu Yongqiang held down Duxie's hand and said softly, "Mr. Carter, I'll give you a day to think about it. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer by this time tomorrow."
After saying this, Lu Yongqiang took his men and left the food factory.
After Lu Yongqiang and others left, Carter swept all the things in the office to the floor, then collapsed in the boss chair and gasped for breath.
Even though Scorpion beat and scolded Carter, the pressure he put on Carter was far less than that from Lu Yongqiang, especially the look in Lu Yongqiang's eyes when he left. It was as if he was looking at a dead person, which really scared Carter. At that moment, he felt like a dead person.
After Carter vented his anger, his expression returned to calm. He took out his cell phone and called Smiling Tiger.
After the call was connected, Carter said in a cold voice, "Wu Zhiwei—Mr. Wu, regardless of whether your business abroad is settled or not, I hope you will return to Hong Kong City immediately. Otherwise, I will transfer the food factory to Lu Yongqiang—Mr. Lu. If he finds anything in the food factory, I am British and can get away with it. I just don't know if you can get away with it, Mr. Wu?"
Just as Carter was calling Smiling Tiger, in the car, Poison Scorpion asked, "Brother, do you think Smiling Tiger will return to Hong Kong City?"
Lu Yongqiang snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry! As long as Smiling Tiger doesn't want to be wanted by the Hong Kong City police, he must come back. Besides, two hundred kilograms of flour is worth nearly thirty million. How could Smiling Tiger be willing to abandon it? Moreover, the food factory has such a good flour warehouse and transportation channels. Is Smiling Tiger willing to give up?"
When he brought people to the food factory, Lu Yongqiang really wanted to take the food factory for himself, but after touring the factory, Lu Yongqiang no longer had this idea.
Smiling Tiger actually used the food factory as a flour warehouse and processed "flour". Afterwards, Lu Yongqiang deliberately gathered all the people in the factory, and then asked Duscorpion to go over and take a look. He actually found more than 200 kilograms of flour inside.
Lu Yongqiang didn't want to have anything to do with this thing, so he immediately gave up the idea of taking over the food factory.
The reason why Lu Yongqiang forced Carter to sell the food factory shares to him was that he wanted Smiling Tiger to return to Hong Kong City. In fact, he had no intention of really buying the shares.
