Chapter 2091 Bang's Vigilance

Lu Chengwen stepped forward: "Strategist, we've already started negotiations. Here's what we'll do: have him go back first, and let him know when there are any results on this side."

The strategist roared, "How dare you! Do you think someone as insignificant as you can make decisions about the sect leader's and the Huo family's business?"

The sect leader also said, "Xiao Wen, you're not allowed to meddle! Go away, go away, go to the side."

Lu Chengwen quickly retreated from the back.

Long Aotian: "How is it?"

Lu Chengwen gritted his teeth: "As expected, it's Huo Wendong."

Long Aotian: "What if the people from Skynet are following along too?"

"That's what I'm afraid of."

Zhao Ritian said, "Those who follow Huo Wendong are not very important figures, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

Lu Chengwen said, "But I'm afraid of being recognized! There are still many things to sort out here. If they recognize me, I'll attract a bunch of people to hunt me down."

Long Aotian thought for a moment and said, "Let Luo Shiyin come."

"Ok?"

"Huo Wendong has little resistance; a little charm won't be a problem."

“No, Huo Wendong isn’t the main concern,” Lu Chengwen said. “What I’m worried about is that there are people from Skynet around. My face isn’t a secret to many people in Skynet anymore.”

Long Aotian analyzed: "Those whom Huo Wendong can command are not of a very high level. Neither Skynet nor Huo Wendong dares to be too blatant. I predict that the minor figures below him will most likely not recognize you."

Zhao Ritian suddenly said, "I think this strategist is quite extraordinary."

Long Aotian and Lu Chengwen said together, "Nonsense."

Lu Chengwen said, "It would be great if I could meet him first."

"You're going to bribe him?"

"He likes antiques and artifacts..."

Zhao Ritian said, "That old sect leader has a luminous pearl, and Huo Wendong loves luminous pearls the most!"

Lu Chengwen shook his head: "With our strength, we can't steal it. We don't even know where he's hiding it."

Several people hiding in the back had already heard Huo Wendong speak.

"Oh, Sect Master, it's a pleasure to meet you! Eh!? Mengyun? What are you doing here?"

Lu Chengwen looked inside and saw Chen Mengyun trying to negotiate with them.

The old sect leader seemed extremely excited!

Chen Mengyun and Huo Wendong both have their eyes on my piece of land, that's going to be quite a show!

Now it's not me begging you, it's you begging me! Hahaha!

Soon, Huo Wendong and Chen Mengyun began to clash.

Chen Mengyun recounted her grand vision, hoping to impress the sect leader; Huo Wendong, on the other hand, dropped a bombshell, saying he planned to build an underground casino that tourists would love, and that the investment would certainly exceed that of Xiangyun.

Chen Mengyun felt that Huo Wendong was a bit of a rogue, but she still maintained diplomatic etiquette and tried to explain her advantages to the old sect leader. However, Huo Wendong was obviously fighting with strength, without any other methods, just money.

The old sect leader is the kind of person who really falls for this.

The young sect leader was already panicking.

He shared the same thought as the old sect leader: wouldn't it be a great thing to cooperate with the Huo family? But he had also taken Chen Mengyun's car.

Chen Mengyun gave him a look, signaling him to speak up for her, but the young sect leader pretended not to see it and avoided eye contact.

However, the strategist frequently intervened, speaking up for Huo Wendong.

The old sect leader remained noncommittal, keeping both sides hanging on to reveal their trump cards.

Lu Chengwen couldn't listen anymore and shook his head: "Xiao Hua."

Little Flower came closer: "Master."

"Tell Mengyun not to rush, and not to be led by others."

Zhuge Xiaohua said, "But Huo Wendong suddenly appeared. If we don't take a more proactive approach, won't we lose this negotiation?"

"No, I have a way."

Lu Chengwen said, "Tell her to apply for a break."

"Rest? At this time?"

"Yes, we can't reveal any more cards. Go now!"

"Yes."

So, Chen Mengyun said she was a little tired and went to rest.

The strategist was very pleased, and Huo Wendong was also very happy. Now that you've left the stage, I'll take over this business!

Huo Wendong began to speak eloquently, urging the sect leader to sign a contract with him as soon as possible. He even added insult to injury, saying that Chen Mengyun had no money at all and was just out there to scam people. He claimed that ten Xiangyun Groups were not worth even one-tenth of the Huo family's wealth...

But the sect leader was too greedy.

He didn't want to talk while Chen Mengyun wasn't around; he wanted them to keep raising the price.

Chen Mengyun became a pawn in his scheme, using her to force Huo Wendong to cede more benefits!

So the sect leader started humming and hawing, neither objecting nor in a hurry to sign the contract, just saying some meaningless things, hoping that Chen Mengyun would return to the negotiating table as soon as possible.

Once Lu Chengwen had seen clearly, he rushed to Chen Mengyun's rest room and explained some things to her.

Huo Wendong was starting to get annoyed.

At that moment, Bang Daomang saw a figure flash by.

He immediately became alert!

He leaned closer to Huo Wendong: "Mr. Huo, there's a problem."

Huo Wendong looked at him, his eyes full of vigilance.

Over there, the strategist was still urging the sect leader to make a decision as soon as possible!

He knew the sect leader was greedy, but he never expected him to be this greedy!

But the sect leader still resorted to stalling tactics.

Huo Wendong asked Bang Daomang, "What's the problem?"

"It seems to be... Lu Chengwen."

Huo Wendong's eyes widened: "You saw it clearly!?"

"I'm not sure. He flashed by over there, but I... think it looked like him."

Huo Wendong thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Master, since you seem a bit... undecided, why don't we all take a break? Oh, I'm tired too. I'm going to have a cup of coffee and some pastries. We'll chat later, after President Chen has rested."

"Okay, okay, quick, son, find Mr. Huo a clean room so he can get some rest."

In the lounge.

Huo Wendong and Bang Daomang began their research.

"You really saw Lu Chengwen?"

"I...I'm not quite sure."

Huo Wendong asked in bewilderment, "How could this be? Do you even know which room Chen Mengyun is in?"

"We're on this side, so she must be on the other side."

Huo Wendong bit his lip: "Go and sneak over there, check Chen Mengyun's room, see if Lu Chengwen is there! Find out! If the Kitchen Knife Sect people find you, just say you got lost and that their house is big."

"Yes!"

Bang Daomang was skilled after all, and he quickly sneaked up to Chen Mengyun's room.

Hua Xuening looked at Bangdao Mang and nodded approvingly: "Master is indeed a brilliant strategist!"

So they gave a coded signal and opened a window on the other side.

The window was opened a little, and Lu Chengwen and Chen Mengyun both saw it. They smiled at each other.

Lu Chengwen: "Mengyun, you did a great job! Huo Wendong is completely in the trap now, hahaha!"

Chen Mengyun smiled and said, "I'll withdraw from the competition later and let Huo Wendong buy that land for 1 billion. That way, we'll have a pleasant cooperation with the Kitchen Knife Sect. It's a pity that the sect leader is too greedy; he wants 70% for himself, and we can only make 300 million."

Lu Chengwen laughed and said, "Three hundred million is not a small amount. We haven't contributed anything! We're just playing around with my classmate. Besides, our goal isn't this deal, but to pledge allegiance to the Kitchen Knife Sect. Our target is their other piece of land! Only when this matter is handled well can that matter make progress."

"Yes, I know."

At this moment, Luo Shiyin brought the young sect leader in.

As soon as the young sect leader entered, he asked, "Mr. Chen, what should we do now?"

Chen Mengyun smiled reassuringly, "Don't worry, everything is going according to plan."

Bang took a deep breath and nodded.

If it weren't for me, our young master would have been treated like a dog and played with for the rest of his life.
