C435 Zhang Family Crisis
C435 Zhang Family Crisis
At this moment, Cheng Ningjun, according to Cheng Zhi's request, presented Cheng Family to Zhang Xianhu for his birthday banquet.
It was a blue briefcase.
Opening his briefcase, Cheng Ningjun took out a folder.
"Old man, this is the congratulatory gift for Cheng Family. You can take a look at it now." Cheng Zhi smiled and glanced at Zhang Penglan, as if everything was under his control.
Zhang Penglan immediately replied with a grateful look. With this gift from Cheng Family, the grievances he had felt just now would completely change. What Zhang Xianhu and what Zhang Pengde, they would no longer stop him!
Zhang Xianhu opened the folder.
"Hmm?"
Zhang Xianhu didn't know what he saw and his hands could only tremble.
The old man was angry!
Zhang Pengde whispered, "Father?"
"Take a look." Zhang Xianhu handed the folder to Zhang Pengde.
"This …"
Zhang Pengde's eyes trembled. In disbelief, he blurted out: "Big Brother, how can you sell your Zhang Family?"
Sold Zhang Family?
Everyone was dumbstruck. What was going on?
"How did I sell out my Zhang Family?" Zhang Penglan asked, "The Zhang Family has been living a good life for more than ten years, could it be that it's not my credit? De Di, you said that I was not good at father's birthday banquet, could it be that you have already considered yourself to be the Patriarch of Zhang Family? "
Cheng Zhi laughed loudly.
"Let me explain to everyone what's going on."
"Ten years ago, Zhang Family encountered a problem with the capital chain at Seahold's port trade, so Zhang Penglan's request for Suen Family was not answered." Ten years ago, Zhang Family met with a problem with the capital chain at Seahold's port trade, so Zhang Penglan's request for Suen Family was not answered. If it wasn't for me, Zhang Family's Seagull Port Trade is close to collapsing due to a lack of funds. "
"Of course, in order to avoid suspicion, I asked Zhang Penglan to hide my identity on the share purchase certificate. After all, Zhang Family is not a listed company, so I don't need to explain anything to the people, because I hold half of the shares, so I also have a part of the authority to speak up in the trade of Zhang Family in Seahold, so who else would be able to become the rightful Patriarch of Zhang Family without my permission if they didn't ask for Zhang Penglan's permission?"
Everyone was shocked.
There was such a thing!
Cheng Zhi bought half of the shares of the Zhang Family Enterprise. Unless Cheng Zhi agreed that Zhang Pengde could manage the Zhang Family Port Trade Enterprise, Zhang Xianhu would have no use at all.
For a moment, people from the Zhang Family didn't know what to say.
Gradually, the voices of some people from the Zhang Family were approaching Zhang Penglan.
Zhang Xianhu had completely lost control of his Zhang Family, so it was already a foregone conclusion. With Cheng Zhi, there was no point in Zhang Pengde becoming the Patriarch of Zhang Family. With status, no authority, and no rights, the people of Zhang Family would not listen to him.
So at this time, the Zhang Family people moving closer to Zhang Penglan was the best choice for them in the future.
The old tutor had such a good birthday feast. No one had expected this.
The advantage was leaning towards Zhang Penglan, and from the looks of it, Zhang Penglan would not lose to Zhang Pengde.
Faang Yingxue sat at the side of the birthday banquet table. She had three people with her, Fang Shen, Fang Yu, and Fang Xiaoqiao.
"Sister Xue, to be honest, I always felt that supporting Zhang Pengde was the wrong decision. Look at Zhang Xianhu, he was so embarrassed that he couldn't say anything. Zhang Pengde was so angry that he made us feel awkward." He was a core member of the Fang family's biotech enterprises and was extremely familiar with the history of Zhang Family. "Out of the four hidden families, Zhang Family used to be the one with the strongest talent for cultivation, but the bloodline curse destroyed this family."
"Sister Xue, I feel that Fang Shen's words are correct. Zhang Family has no future when it comes to cultivation and business expansion. If we had been on the same team as Zhang Penglan just now, we wouldn't have been as awkward as we are now." The one who spoke was Fang Yu.
When it was made public, Fang Shen and the others called Faang Yingxue their clan head.
In private, everyone called her Sister Xue.
"What do you think, Joe?" Faang Yingxue did not reply to Fang Shen but asked Fang Xiaoqiao.
"Sister Xue, I also think supporting Zhang Pengde is a mistake." Fang Xiaoqiao said softly, "Before I came here and found out that you wanted to support Zhang Pengde, I had investigated Zhang Pengde's background, he had a son called Zhang Haorann, a genius high school student from Wulong Senior High. Later on, he went to Donghai University, so now they are in a state of suspension, so how could father and son like this become the pillar of Zhang Family. They can't take over Zhang Family, and even if Cheng Zhi doesn't appear, Zhang Pengde will have a hard time successfully taking over Zhang Penglan's position."
"After all, Zhang Penglan has held the advantage in terms of connections within the Zhang Family for more than ten years. Compared to him, the combined power of the three siblings, Zhang Pengpei, Zhang Pengde, and Zhang Yuhua, can't compare to Zhang Penglan alone."
Fang Xiaoqiao recounted his analysis, which attracted the approval of both Fang Shen and Fang Yu.
Seeing that Faang Yingxue did not deny her, Fang Xiaoqiao continued:
"Especially that Zhang Haorann. I heard that he broke his own arm in order to cure Zhang Xianhu. Isn't that strange? What does the treatment have to do with a broken arm? Many people said that in order for Zhang Xianhu to become the Zhang Family Patriarch, he had purposely placed the credit for his recovery on Zhang Haorann. Isn't that funny? Zhang Haorann is just a university student, how can he have the ability to treat the world's terminal illness? "Look at Zhang Haorann now. He doesn't dare to come out and just watch from the side."
Faang Yingxue shook her head, "I think the reason Zhang Haorann didn't stand up for us is for Zhang Pengde. After all, to let Zhang Pengde return to Zhang Family, Zhang Pengde himself must stand up, not say solve the problem, but at least face the difficulties in front of us."
Fang Xiaoqiao thought to himself, Zhang Haorann can think of this?
Sister Xue must be overthinking it.
Other than Faang Yingxue and the others, the family that Cheng Family had brought along, as well as Hou Qingjia and the others, all watched coldly from the sidelines.
Zhang Pengde was Zhang Haorann's father, and this made Yuv Huan's family who received the news slightly shocked. They never expected that Zhang Haorann, who was travelling with them in Yan Jing, was actually from Zhang Family.
"So what if he's from the Zhang Family? That Zhang Pengde is Zhang Haorann's father, and he's being targeted by Zhang Penglan in a completely useless way. He doesn't even have a chance to retaliate." Xu Tiehlinson smiled. "Xu Tiehlin, ah Xu Tiehlin, if you knew that your son-in-law's family is being excluded by the Zhang Family people at this time, what would you think?"
"I'm not wrong, right? Xu Qing's family just wanted to tie up Yan Jing's Zhang Family, but the result was that Zhang Haorann was completely useless. That father of his, seems like he's going to be forced to leave the Zhang Family again." Hou Qingjia said in a low voice.
It was a pity, Zhang Xianhu, that after finally trusting Zhang Pengde once with great difficulty, he had encountered this trouble. The predicament of Zhang Family was already a fact, and the actual ruler of the future, was still Zhang Penglan.
Only Yuv Jin's eyes flickered as she muttered to herself, "Zhang Haorann is a knowledgeable man. Such a powerful person would definitely have a way to deal with all of this."
After hearing Yuv Jin's words, Hou Qingjia couldn't help but laugh, "Yuv Jin, if Zhang Haorann had a way, he would have already stood out. Why wait until now?"
"That's true." Yuv Jin's eyes dimmed. In her heart, she was still supporting Zhang Haorann. A bookworm would easily acknowledge another bookworm. Yuv Jin admired Zhang Haorann. However, now that the Zhang Family was in such a predicament, Zhang Haorann would probably not have the chance to solve it.
At this moment, Hou Qingjia saw Xu Qing's family arrived.
"Xu Qing, ah, Xu Qing, you came at the perfect time, look at the crisis Zhang Haorann's family is facing. I saw that he was going to roll out of the Zhang Family in a sorry state, pitiful that Zhang Xianhu, but with great difficulty, he managed to come back to life and ran into such a troublesome matter on his birthday. If you had to blame something, you can only blame Zhang Xianhu for trusting Zhang Pengde and digging a hole for yourself to jump into." Hou Qingjia was in a good mood.
Xu Qing brought her parents to Zhang Haorann and asked him what had happened.
Hou Qingjia noticed that Xu Qing's expression was a little worried, but strangely, Xu Tiehlin and Lee Feng didn't have much of a reaction.
"It doesn't matter. You will regret it sooner or later. Xu Qing will be mine after all."
Hou Qingjia swore to himself that after Zhang Xianhu's birthday banquet, he would use Xu Qing's most fragile state of mind to catch her!
Zhang Pengde took the folder and threw it at Zhang Penglan.
"Big Brother, look at what you have done. The Zhang Family has been betrayed by you, and the person who will affect the future of the Zhang Family is not a profound practitioner but an outsider! This is the shame of the Zhang Family! "
"De Di, those words are your fault. I know that you feel uncomfortable about not being able to become the Patriarch of Zhang Family, I can understand, but I do not agree with you saying that I have sold out Zhang Family." Zhang Penglan was surprised that Zhang Pengde dared to question his courage, but he quickly calmed himself down and said, "When the Zhang Family fund chain crumbled, why didn't I see you run all the way from the Xihu Province to say these words in front of me? When Zhang Family is in trouble, I will do everything I can to deal with him. Could it be that if Zhang Family goes bankrupt, I will have to rely on you, Zhang Pengde, to save it? "
Saying that, Zhang Penglan revealed a teasing smile, "The key point is that you have your own ways of saving him. Look at the business that you do in Xihu Province, giving jobs to others and giving face to others, do you think that Zhang Family people are willing to do the same? You're wrong! If all the people from the Zhang Family live together with you in hiding in the Xihu Province, that will be the true humiliation of the people from the Zhang Family! "
Zhang Pengde said with an ashen face: "No matter how big of a problem the family meets, if you betrayed the family and didn't tell anyone about it, that is your mistake! What you betrayed, was the trust the people of Zhang Family had in you! "
Twenty years ago, when faced with Zhang Family, Zhang Pengde chose to flee, hiding in Xihu Province as an ordinary commoner, no longer having any lofty ambitions in his heart.
Twenty years later, Zhang Pengde was once again facing the criticism from the Zhang Family people. He did not retreat, and took the initiative to step out and berate Zhang Penglan. Zhang Pengde knew that his words would not gain the approval of the Zhang Family people, but he was not afraid at all.
Zhang Pengde came to Zhang Xianhu's side.
"Old man, don't be afraid. Even if the Zhang Family people don't support you, I will still stand on your side."
Zhang Pengde's attitude was like a clap of thunder in the night sky, causing everyone present to have a different understanding of this "Zhang Family traitor".
Zhang Haorann, who was in the crowd, finally had a relieved smile on his face when he saw this scene.
"Dad, you've finally untied your heart. Leave the rest to me."
Zhang Haorann walked towards Zhang Pengde.
The gazes from the surroundings instantly gathered onto Zhang Haorann.
Isn't this person Zhang Pengde's son?
Did he really overestimate himself to come out and fight against Zhang Penglan?
