Chapter 155 Falling into the Abyss
Facing Wu Jinliang's doubtful gaze, Zhou Jianfeng said with a stiff face, "Yes, Lu Yiming is very rich now! He made a lot of money by cooperating with Lin Shuyi before, and then he went to Hong Kong to set up Future Capital and sell financial products. Even international speculators like Soros were defeated by him, and he made a lot of money again. Financial media in Hong Kong estimate that he is now worth at least 1 billion!"
"so much!?"
When Wu Jinliang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
If he could get some money from Lu Yiming, not only would he not have to go to jail, he would also be able to keep his luxury house and car, and even continue to be able to live a luxurious life in the future.
As long as Lu Yiming gives the money, everything will be fine.
But the key is, how can we get Lu Yiming to pay?
When he saw Zhou Jianfeng kneeling on the ground, he began to hate Lu Yiming for refusing to help him manage the funds. He decided to settle the old and new accounts together and kidnapped Lu Yiming and demanded a ransom!
Doesn't he have 1 billion in his hands? If he takes all of it, not only can he solve the debt problem and live a good life, but he may even be able to make a comeback and wipe out Jingwan Group!
Thinking of this, Wu Jinliang saw hope, a smile appeared on his face, and he changed his attitude towards Zhou Jianfeng: "Xiao Zhou, you have provided a very valuable clue. By the way, do you know where Lu Yiming is now?"
When Zhou Jianfeng saw Wu Jinliang's smile, he felt that Wu Jinliang had already made up his mind. Although telling Zhou Jianfeng about Lu Yiming's whereabouts now would make him an accomplice, in order to save his life, he still said, "He came back a few days ago, and he should be studying in No. 1 Middle School now."
"Good, very good. After we do this job, won't the sea be wide enough for fish to leap and the sky high enough for birds to fly?"
Wu Jinliang laughed loudly, and then said to the people around him: "Keep an eye on him, don't let him run away."
Then he came to a nearby place and found Wu Jianhao and Wu Qiuping.
"How's it going? Did you find it? Did he give you money?"
Wu Jianhao asked impatiently.
If Zhou Jianfeng pays back the money, Wu Jianhao can still maintain his status as a rich second-generation and his past glamorous life. But if he cannot get the money back from Zhou Jianfeng, not only will he not be able to live a luxurious life in the future, he may even have to go to jail with Wu Jinliang.
Wu Jinliang shook his head, his eyes cold: "The person has been found, but the money is gone. He can only take out more than one million yuan from his body now. What can this little money do?"
When Wu Jianhao heard this, he was immediately furious and couldn't help cursing, "I'll kill this bastard!"
Wu Qiuping was also very angry, but being angry would not solve the problem, so he could only continue to ask: "Then what should we do now? It's only about one million, which is far from enough to settle the account."
Let’s just talk about those usurious loans. When the loan matures, it will be hard to pay back the principal, let alone the interest, for the millions of dollars.
Wu Jinliang took a deep breath, his eyes determined: "That guy showed me a way."
Wu Jianhao was stunned, then quickly asked : "Which road?"
Wu Jinliang then relayed to Wu Jianhao and Wu Qiuping what Zhou Jianfeng had just told him.
When Wu Jianhao heard this, he immediately flew into a rage and yelled, "Is there any justice in this? Is there any law in this? We are doing the same thing, why did we lose all our money while Lu Yiming made money ? If you round it off, it means that all our money was made by Lu Yiming!"
He felt a little regretful. He felt that he was too gentle to Lu Yiming at the beginning. He just closed Lu Yiming's Internet cafe and wanted Lu Yiming to help him. But now, Lu Yiming didn't care about the life and death of the Internet cafe at all, and he still made a lot of money. And they lost money again, and lost all their money!
If they had tied Lu Yiming up, put a knife to his neck, and asked him to help speculate in rubles, the 1 billion would be theirs now!
Thinking about it this way, it is equivalent to Lu Yiming taking away the 1 billion yuan that should have belonged to their Wu family. This is simply unforgivable!
Wu Qiuping's eyes widened, and then his voice trembled a little: "Brother, do you mean that we should go to Lu Yiming to 'borrow' some money?"
Wu Jinliang nodded slightly, obviously this was what he thought.
Wu Qiuping thought about it and immediately shook his head: "I don't think this is appropriate."
If it were normal days, Wu Jianhao, who had always wanted to whitewash his own business, would definitely support Wu Qiuping, but now he was almost driven crazy by the huge debt, and was even more unwilling to fall from the rich second generation to the poor second generation, so he said sternly: "Second Uncle, what's wrong with this? Who made him make so much money? That money should have been ours!"
Wu Jinliang also said to Wu Qiuping coldly: "Do you think we have any way out? You know how terrible the usury is. Besides, all our properties have been mortgaged to the bank. If we can't pay it back, we will lose everything. If it really comes to that, I'm afraid even going to jail alive will be a luxury."
After this disaster, it is impossible for the Wu family to clear their name. The only thing they have left is to go all the way to the end, and maybe they can survive.
Even if I can't make it in Baiyun, I can take the money and run away.
Wu Jianhao couldn't help but imagine his future life: "What will we do after we get the money? Will we start a business after paying off the loan?"
Unexpectedly, Wu Jinliang yelled, "Fuck you! Offending one person is one thing, but offending two is still one thing, isn't it? We can take this money and go to Southeast Asia, where we can make a name for ourselves."
Wu Qiuping looked helpless, but still nodded: "That makes sense."
Wu Jianhao always felt that something was wrong. He was different from Wu Jinliang and Wu Qiuping.
Both Wu Jinliang and Wu Qiuping came from a sea of blood and corpses. When they were young, fighting and killing were the norm. After all, if you are a contractor these days and don't dare to fight and compete, you probably won't even be able to get business.
Although Wu Jianhao has a bad temper and is self-righteous, he is better than his father Wu Jinliang and his second uncle Wu Qiuping in one respect. That is, he has been to college and has received a good education. His views on things and what he has seen and heard are more profound than those of Wu Jinliang and Wu Qiuping. At least he knows that there is no future in life if he only relies on fighting and killing.
The reason why they planned to kidnap Lu Yiming was because there was really no other way to think of.
But as long as he can get the money, Wu Jianhao still prefers to do business in an honest and legal manner.
But on this matter, Wu Jinliang and Wu Qiuping had obviously made up their minds, and Wu Jianhao had no other good solution now, so he had to keep silent.
After discussing the plan, Wu Jinliang returned to Zhou Jianfeng and said condescendingly: "Take your things and follow us."
