C107 Seek Refuge
Originally, because Lin Fan destroyed the production line of Longteng Heavy Industry, Zheng Yiloong had already lost tens of billions. Adding the five billion that he gave Lin Fan, he would have to sell some of his property if he wanted to collect it.
Of course, Lin Fan had also suffered a lot of losses. The renovation of Starmoon Hotel alone would cost more than a billion yuan.
Therefore, it was already merciful enough for Lin Fan to ask Zheng Yiloong to compensate five billion yuan. Lin Fan also knew that five billion yuan was the limit that Zheng Yiloong could bear. Any more and Zheng Family's foundation would be shaken. He was afraid that they would fight to the death with Lin Fan.
When Ms Mei heard Lin Fan ask for five billion yuan, her expression changed a little. When Zheng Yiloong agreed to it, she immediately admired Lin Fan's ability to negotiate.
This money was really not something that could be casually asked for. One had to take into account the bottom line that Zheng Family could accept. If he asked for less, he would be at a disadvantage. If he asked for more, Zheng Family would not agree to it. The price needed was just right. This was the standard of Lin Fan.
Bai Lau and Xiong Tu were secretly shocked. This kind of confrontation between Rich Second Generation was too scary, and he had just left with a few billion yuan while talking and laughing.
Looking at Lin Fan's calm expression, it was as if five billion wasn't a big deal at all. The two of them were not only impressed by Lin Fan's boldness.
The only thing that did not make him feel sad was when his friends and subordinates were in danger, and Lin Fan would do his best to save them. He would not casually give up his subordinates as chess pieces. This was a person worth following for his entire life.
Bai Lau and Xiong Tu had been betrayed by their employers before. They were disheartened and came out to work alone. However, they lived in dire straits, and their abilities were covered in dust.
However, it was different now. After confirming that Lin Fan was someone they could follow, both of them were thinking that they would follow Lin Fan for the rest of their lives and die without regrets.
Seeing that Zheng Yiloong had agreed to compensate five billion, Lin Fan thought to himself. This bastard was really willing to cut off his flesh. He knew what was the most important thing.
If Zheng Yiloong felt that Lin Fan's price was too high and was unwilling to compensate five billion, then the Zheng Family's family would vanish into thin air.
"Young Master Zheng is a wise man. Do you know what it means to be willing to give up? Do you know what it means to be willing to give up? Our grudge will be written off just like that!" Lin Fan said.
Hearing that Lin Fan would not pursue the matter further, Zheng Yiloong's hanging heart finally relaxed. Five billion to buy the safety of the Zheng family. This money was worth it, but Zheng Yiloong's heart still ached for it.
If it wasn't for Zhao Qiang, such a thing wouldn't have happened to the Zheng Family. Now, not only did they not get the upper hand, they had also suffered a double loss. This was a huge loss!
"Young Master Lin is also generous. I'll drink tea in place of wine and offer you a toast. I'll compensate you for your crimes!" Zheng Yiloong picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp.
Although he only drank tea, Lin Fan did not care. As long as the meaning was understood, it was fine. The form did not matter.
"En. Actually, there's something I don't understand. Young Master Zheng clearly has the advantage, why did he suddenly admit defeat to me?" Lin Fan asked.
This was also what Xia Xuan and the others could not understand. Zheng Yiloong's actions were too sudden and strange. That was why they unanimously agreed that this was the Hong Gate Banquet organized by Zheng Yiloong and did not want Lin Fan to come over.
Zheng Yiloong smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master Lin, I think you already know that your account was hacked by a hacker."
Lin Fan nodded and did not say anything.
"I did this. After the hacker entered your account, the 40 billion deposit inside really scared me. At that time, I understood. Young Master Lin, you are not a mortal. I cannot make things difficult for you anymore. Otherwise, the Zheng Family will encounter its greatest crisis." Zheng Yiloong had used a hacker to hack into Lin Fan's account.
Although it didn't cause any trouble for Lin Fan, it made Zheng Yiloong realize what kind of existence he was facing. If Zheng Yiloong was a mouse, then... A single bite from Lin Fan wouldn't be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.
"Oh, is that all I have left in my savings?" Lin Fan said with a bit of surprise.
Zheng Yiloong...
If you said that there was only a small amount of 40 billion left, then under normal circumstances, how much would you have left?
Ms Mei and Bai Lau were also stunned. They knew that the Lin Family had a huge influence, but they did not expect it to be so shocking. Just the savings of an heir alone was worth tens of billions. This was not even including the fixed assets under Lin Fan's name.
Lin Fan thought it was too little. It was too scary.
Lin Fan wasn't pretending. He did feel that it was a lot less. Usually, he didn't care how much money was stored in his account. To him, it was just a string of numbers. Could it be that he had nothing better to do than counting all day?
After thinking for a while, he bought Starmoon Hotel and Mingtang Hospital. These two biggest expenses cost more than 30 billion. Later, Citibank replenished some of the money from the Wu Family, and that was only the amount of over 40 billion.
To Lin Fan, this amount of money wasn't much, but to Zheng Yiloong, 40 billion was a terrifying amount.
That was why he decisively stopped and immediately admitted defeat to Lin Fan, and sincerely apologized.
"Young Master Lin, we can be considered as friends even if we don't fight. You have a noble status, and I don't wish to become friends with you. I only hope that if Young Master Lin has any use for our Zheng Family, you can speak your mind. I promise that I will do it for you." Zheng Yiloong said respectfully.
He was calculating. After suffering such a huge loss, it would be unreasonable if he didn't get some benefits from it. Since he had made a deal with Lin Fan, he might as well turn the conflict into an agreement and get close to the Lin Family, which was a big tree.
Lin Fan was eating meat at the front, while Zheng Yiloong was drinking soup at the back. He wouldn't be able to enjoy it.
Lin Fan said politely. "No problem. I have never been stingy with my own people. As for whether your Zheng Family can become one of us or not... Alright."
Regarding Zheng Yiloong's statement, Lin Fan's heart was ambiguous.
Although the two of them had reconciled, it was far from the extent where they could work together.
Lin Fan did not trust Zheng Yiloong now, but if he performed well in the future, it was not impossible for him to give Zheng Yiloong a chance.
"Don't worry Young Master Lin. I will do whatever you ask me to do in the future. I will never go against you!" Zheng Yiloong swore.
"Haha, alright. That's all for today. I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first." Lin Fan stood up with a smile and walked towards the door.
"Young Master Lin, I'll see you off." Zheng Yiloong also quickly stood up.
After Lin Fan got into the car and left, Zheng Yiloong let out a sigh of relief and immediately ordered, "Raise funds immediately. The five billion must be transferred to the account as soon as possible!"
Although Lin Fan did not ask him to pay the money immediately, he did not dare to delay it for too long. If Lin Fan thought that Zheng Yiloong was perfunctory to him, the hard work that he had put in to settle today would be in vain!
