Chapter 1976 The Power of Money

Lu Chengwen was momentarily speechless.

Just by listening to the sound, Lu Chengwen could tell that Lu Chengwu was laughing.

"Six billion."

Lu Chengwen scratched his head and said, "You...you're messing up someone else's country's economy, you...you're immoral..."

"Seven billion, bro."

"Ahem." Lu Chengwen was a little embarrassed: "I'm telling you, this has nothing to do with money, it's mainly about the state of the world and people's hearts, right? You have to... be responsible and have a sense of duty... that is..."

Eight billion.

Lu Chengwen turned to look at his men. Was this sudden change of expression embarrassing?

"I...I wasn't even talking about money with you, really, ugh, I really..."

“Ten billion.” Lu Chengwu said, “Brother, I’m in Cao’s camp but my heart is with Liu. I took down several military industrial enterprises of Tianzhu. Now our relationship with Tianzhu has improved a lot. Because their country is in chaos, they definitely won’t dare to mess with us now.”

"oh--!"

Lu Chengwen said, "Since it's for the country, the nation, and the people, then of course it's different. Well, I have three requests for you."

"You say."

"First! We must find the right balance. We can weaken them, but we must also take the lives and safety of the local people into account to the greatest extent possible."

"Yes, of course. Am I a devil? I also love this land, its people, and its money. The people are innocent. I will do my best to leave them something to eat."

"Second! Anything that harms our national interests, damages our image, or undermines our favorable diplomatic environment... In short, you need to know where your roots are!"

"I know! I know it all too well! That's why I came abroad to scam... no, to commit evil... no, I mean... to develop my career abroad."

"Third! You... transfer the money to me as soon as possible."

"it is good."

Lu Chengwen thought for a moment and said, "Brother, take care of yourself and don't catch a cold."

Lu Chengwu hummed in agreement: "Alright, brother, you can go ahead and do your work if there's nothing else. The leaders of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs want to talk to me, so I have to go."

"Okay, okay, take your time. When you get there, talk to them properly and tell them the truth... Or you could transfer the money first? What if you get arrested and sentenced, regarding your assets..."

"We're meeting in secret, so you're not allowed to tell anyone about it!"

"I won't say, I won't say. I'll just consider you dead."

"it is good."

hang up the phone.

Lu Chengwen clapped his hands while talking on the phone, his head still spinning.

Hua Xuening exclaimed, "Ten billion! Master, you're amazing!"

Lu Chengwen smiled bitterly: "He's the one who's amazing, zero-yuan bills... This is some kind of crazy operation... He's completely lost his conscience."

Jiang Shihhan said, "With so much money, we can fill a lot of our hole. President Lu, I heard that the people from Tianzhu are cunning and boastful, and they are always competing with us. If Cheng Wu can really make them behave, he will actually be sharing the burden of the country."

Lu Chengwen nodded: "Serves them right! I also despise their boasting. They deserve to be stuck with Lu Chengwu."

Lu Chengwen thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Ten billion! Hey! We're having seafood tonight!"

Canghai and Cangyue came over, both of them with big smiles on their faces.

"Mr. Lu, our twenty million..."

Lu Chengwen was in a great mood. He was about to receive 10 billion US dollars. Who wouldn't be happy?

A mere twenty million? You call that money?!

"What's the rush? Jiang Shih-Han, get them the money."

"Oh."

Jiang Shih-Han said, "Do we need cash for everything? Then I'll have to contact several banks to pool our money."

"Let's go."

……

Two boxes of US dollars, counted on the spot.

After ordering and packing, the two of them were incredibly excited.

Cang Hai shook hands with Lu Chengwen: "President Lu, this time we are really... grateful to you."

Lu Chengwen smiled and said, "Actually, many people would love to do something for the Elders' Council. Please don't be so polite with me this time, brothers. I'm just trying to curry favor with you. If we meet again in the martial world, just remember me as your younger brother."

"What are you saying!" Cang Yue said, "Our relationship is now that of brothers! Ah, this trip has been really full of twists and turns. If it weren't for the elder giving me a secret mission, I really... I never expected you to say that. President Lu, I, Cang Yue, will remember this kindness."

Lu Chengwen said, "Let's get going quickly. This time, please keep a close eye on the boxes and don't lose them again. You saw what happened just now. It wasn't easy for me to raise this money. Seven banks gave you two boxes of cash! If you lose them again, I won't be able to raise the money in a short time."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Lu, don't worry. I carried it the whole time, all the way back to the Elders' Council."

"Alright! Brothers, I still have a few business deals to discuss. You two hurry on your way and let me know you're safe when you get home."

"Okay, okay, Mr. Lu, you're busy, you're busy."

Canghai and Cangyue drove for more than ten kilometers, and by sheer bad luck, they opened the box again to check.

They were both dumbfounded.

It's a newspaper again.

……

Dream Cloud Gift Pack.

Lu Chengwen stared dumbfounded at Mengyun's gift package.

The Great Rejuvenation Pill and the Small Rejuvenation Pill need not be mentioned.

There is also a set of upgrade cards for a team of ten people;

There's also an upgrade card, the "Major Villain Professional Edition." This means Lu Chengwen can use it himself to directly upgrade to the "Four Villains" level.

There are also advanced versions of the Great Sage Subduing Tiger Fist and beginner versions of the Great Sage Subduing Dragon Fist.

There's another big treasure!

Zhuge Xiaohua's 1000x Strategy Card.

Lu Chengwen immediately destroyed it.

A strategy guide? That's enough!

Xiaohua was so innocent, but now she seems alluring and seductive, always trying to seduce me.

Further attempts at conquering her... are no longer feasible.

Lu Chengwen finally had a moment of peace and wanted to take Hua Xuening to see his master.

Halfway there, the car was stopped by someone.

Jiang Yuanzheng smiled and said, "President Lu, you must be very busy lately."

Lu Chengwen got out of the car: "Fourth Uncle? What brings you here?"

Please.

"Please me?"

"Yes."

Jiang Yuanzheng said, "The business deal with Tianwu still needs to be pushed forward. The old man wants you to go to the Jiang family to talk about those little animals."

Lu Chengwen was a little annoyed: "I'm very busy, I have to go see my master."

"Master, you can watch it another day. Come back to the Jiang family with me first."

Lu Chengwen bit his lip: "Fourth Uncle, I don't want to go back yet. Oh, by the way, did you go stay at that villa?"

"I stayed there for two days, ah, it was so nice!"

Jiang Yuanzheng walked up to Lu Chengwen, put his arm around his shoulder, and said, "Chengwen, you keep your word, you're a good friend. But I'm here all year round, and look at that house... it's just sitting there, it's a bit of a waste."

Lu Chengwen shrugged: "I have a lot of houses that are just sitting there."

"I mean……"

"You use the house to take out a loan, and then invest the money. That way, the house is yours, but you also have an equivalent amount of money to invest and continue to make money!"

"Investing... they won't let us get loans, will they..."

"If you build a good relationship with the bank, you can just say you want to start a business, not just invest."

"Don't banks supervise this?"

"As long as your investment makes money, the bank is happy to collect your interest. Banks also need to make money! You should talk directly to the bank manager; they have a lot of leverage."

"You're really something. Come on, let's go back to the Jiang family."

"No... I just had a fight with my second uncle, it would be too awkward to go back now."

Just as Jiang Yuanzheng was about to speak, Hua Xuening suddenly said, "Master, be careful!"
