Chapter 2146 Finding Wealth in Danger

In a private room of a bar in Yanjing, Tang Shaoxiong and Bai Rulei were sitting opposite each other drinking.

Bai Rulei's face was full of smiles, as if he had eaten honey cakes: "Second brother, thank you so much. Without your help, I would never have been able to get such a large loan."

Tang Shaoxiong said with a smile: "We are brothers, why are you being so polite to me?"

Bai Rulei toasted him with a glass of wine and said, "Second brother, I feel that this is not the way to do it."

Tang Shaoxiong's face changed: "What? You changed your mind? We have already agreed on this."

Bai Rulei smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, second brother. I've thought about it carefully. If we want to do it, we should do it on a large scale. I think the grain you sold to me is still a little too little. This opportunity to make money is rare, so I have to seize it."

Tang Shaoxiong said with a half-smile: "Good fellow, you are quite ambitious."

Bai Rulei said, "Second brother, I am not young anymore, and I can't make a career in politics anymore. I am still a small-time businessman, and I don't know when I can make a breakthrough. If I don't succeed, I will be too embarrassed to see my former good friends, so you must help me."

Tang Shaoxiong raised his eyebrows and asked, "How else can I help you?"

Bai Rulei said, "I hope my second brother can help me get more loans so that I can go to the market and buy a lot of grain."

Tang Shaoxiong touched his chin and said, "You already have a loan. It's really difficult to add to it."

Bai Rulei smiled and said, "I won't make it difficult for you. I can mortgage both of our old houses."

"Is it okay?" Tang Shaoxiong was slightly stunned. This seemed like he needed to sell the house to make money.

Bai Rulei said, "Okay, wealth and honor come from risk. I'll find a way to get the property certificate. Second brother, just help me with the mortgage. I'll lend as much as I can. The more the better. I'll invest all of it in the grain business."

Tang Shaoxiong pretended to be silent, but he was actually sneering in his heart. He originally just wanted to use Bai Rulei to throw some dirty water on the Bai family, but he didn't expect that this guy would take the initiative to die.

If the Bai family even sacrificed their old house, wouldn't it be a confirmed fact to accuse them of speculation and profiteering from the national crisis?

Since your family is heading towards a dead end, I can't stop you.

Tang Shaoxiong was delighted. After agreeing to Bai Rulei's request, he made a special phone call to report to Grandpa Tang.

……

On the other side, Zhao Lin returned home, becoming more and more angry. Just as he was about to throw some sand into Tang Shaoxiong's rice pot, he received a call from Tang Shaoxiong.

Zhao Lin pretended to say, "Chairman Tang, the grain transfer issue seems to be a bit difficult to handle."

Tang Shaoxiong hesitated and asked, "What do you mean?"

Zhao Lin said in a gloomy tone, "To be honest, I do have some connections with the four major grain traders, but you should know that those people are all large international companies. The companies have mature rules and regulations. The funds required for this global grain purchase are too high, and the cost of corporate operations is also very high. It is not convenient to offer you a too high price. After all, the domestic grain price has not risen to the right level yet."

Tang Shaoxiong was so smart that he immediately realized that Zhao Lin was deliberately creating difficulties for him.

Generally speaking, there are only two purposes for his behavior: first, to get more benefits, and second, to deliberately make things difficult for yourself.

If it were under normal circumstances, Tang Shaoxiong would definitely warn Zhao Lin right away to let him know his identity and status.

As an expert and scholar with a little fame in the academic field, you dare to show off to the Tang family. Who gives you the courage?

Now there is no need to even threaten him. He went to Zhao Lin to discuss how to let the other party collect less food and give more to Bai Rulei, the one who would take over.

So after hearing Zhao Lin's sarcastic words, Tang Shaoxiong laughed and said, "It seems like you are having troubles here. Things are going to be difficult."

Zhao Lin said, "Yes, Chairman Tang, I'm really sorry, it's too difficult for me to handle this, but if you are willing to wait, I can try harder."

"No need. It's difficult to handle. Let's not do it." Tang Shaoxiong said calmly.

Zhao Lin was stunned: "We're not going to do this?"

Tang Shaoxiong hung up the phone without any explanation.

Zhao Lin was completely confused, not knowing what the other party meant. He had always been admired by people from all walks of life and was indeed a little overwhelmed. He felt that even Mr. Tang would not dare to do anything to him, let alone Mr. Tang II?

Unexpectedly, before I could even get a single soft word from him, Tang Lao Er directly refused to communicate.

Zhao Lin said angrily, "If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. I begged you to do it? What the hell!"

Not long after he finished cursing, the phone rang again. Zhao Lin curled his lips in disdain, picked up the phone and said, "What's the matter? Chairman Tang, do you have anything else to do?"

Liu Fusheng's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Professor Zhao has recognized the wrong person. I am not the chairman, I am Liu Fusheng."

"what?"

Zhao Lin quickly looked at the caller ID and found that it was indeed not Tang Shaoxiong's number.

Liu Fusheng had just finished a meeting with him in the morning, and he was almost unable to take care of himself because of the voice he heard. He will definitely never forget this voice.

Zhao Lin said coldly: "Xiao Liu, what do you want to talk to me about? If you want to continue to irritate me, then there is no need. I have a broad mind and don't want to argue with a young man like you."

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Professor Zhao just mentioned Chairman Tang's name. It should be Tang Shaoxiong, the second son of the Tang family, right? Did he just call you?"

Zhao Lin frowned and said, "It has nothing to do with you."

Liu Fusheng said: "Why is it okay? I'm calling you to show you a way out."

"What a joke?" Zhao Lin said disdainfully.

Liu Fusheng said, "You should have been to the Tang family today, right? And Chief Tang probably didn't treat you well, am I right?"

Zhao Lin's expression changed: "You sent someone to follow me?"

Liu Fusheng said, "Professor Zhao misunderstood. I was just guessing. After all, the opinions of the top leaders of the Tang family are highly consistent with yours, and you two must have had some exchanges. You suffered a defeat at the seminar, so you must report it to the Tang family and ask what to do next."

Zhao Lin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say? Be direct."

Liu Fusheng said, "I want to remind you that you are in danger right now. Chairman Tang contacted you because he wanted to discuss something. From the tone of your voice when you called me just now, I can tell that your conversation was not pleasant."

Zhao Lin was shocked: "Liu Fusheng, did you install a bug in my house?"

Liu Fusheng said with a smile: "I don't have that ability, and there is no need. I just knew a long time ago that Shengtang Group secretly stockpiled a large amount of food through many channels."

"Given the current situation, Chairman Tang should sell the grain as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will hoard it and make a fortune from the national crisis, which will have a very bad impact on the Tang family."

"He wants to sell grain, and you have connections with the four major grain merchants, so you are a very suitable middleman... Am I right?"
