<h4>Chapter 1215: Chapter 1222: Zhu Hong’s Little Scheme</h4>


    "Conditions?" Hong Wei asked, "What other conditions are there?"


    "Mr. Hong, the amount you pay only entitles you to the lowest level of service. However, someone wants to kill you now, and the other party is not insignificant. If you want higher-level services, you need to pay an equivalent fee."


    Hearing this, Hong Wei frowned and said, "Sir, you should know how expensive your prices are. I pay your organization more than a billion every year; that’s enough to hire an army. Now you want me to pay more, do you really take me for a fool?"


    Zhu Hong said expressionlessly, "You get what you pay for. Mr. Hong, let me be frank, if I pulled all my people out, you wouldn’tst three days. As far as I know, your personal assets amount to hundreds of billions. Tens of billions are nothing to you. Do you really think that money is more important than your life?"


    Hong Wei pondered for a moment and asked, "How much do you want?"


    "Not much, just this amount." Zhu Hong raised three fingers and smiled, "For you, it’s just a drop in the bucket."


    Thirty billion... Hong Wei was somewhat displeased, but for his safety, he nodded in agreement. After all, what good is money if you’re not alive? In this regard, Hong Wei was very clear.


    "Great! I knew Mr. Hong is a straightforward person." Saying this, Zhu Hong took out a small note from his pocket and ced it on the coffee table. "This is my bank ount number, and I’ll check in thirty minutes to see if the funds have arrived."


    ncing at the small note, Hong Wei said, "I have your organization’s public ount. I can directly transfer the money there, as I’ve always done."


    "As you said, that was before. Now I make the decisions." With that, Zhu Hong stood up, adjusted his cor, and smiled, "Mr. Hong, it was a pleasure doing business. I’ll take my leave now."


    Watching Zhu Hong leave, Hong Wei felt a bit resentful about losing thirty billion just like that. However, thinking of the safety that thirty billion bought him, he finally rxed.


    Leaving the Hong residence, Zhu Hong sat in the car, took out his mobile, and checked the ount bnce. Hong Wei was efficient; the thirty billion had already been transferred sessfully. Seeing the long string of zeros in the ount, Zhu Hong finally smiled.


    The task Zhu Chuan gave him this time was simple: to negotiate business with Hong Wei. With so many experts from Skyhawk Pavilion involved, they naturally needed to collect some additional fees. ording to Zhu Chuan, twenty billion would suffice. However, Zhu Hong wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity. Easily, without any effort, he pocketed ten billion. What could be easier than making money this way?


    He now owned nothing. To rise again and have enough capital, money was indispensable.


    Money makes the world go ’round! In today’s society, money is almost omnipotent.


    After transferring twenty billion to Skyhawk Pavilion’s public ount, Zhu Hong picked up the phone and dialed a number.


    "Hello! Master, it’s me. I’m currently in Beijing. If you have time, pleasee to Beijing. I have something to discuss with you... Okay, I’ll wait for your message."


    After hanging up the phone, Zhu Hong’s lips curved slightly, showing how rxed he was. The call just now wasn’t to Zhu Chuan, but to Chen Quan. Ever since he went missing in the desert, he hadn’t contacted Chen Quan for a long time.


    Chen Quan is a top expert on the Heavenly List, such a good resource shouldn’t be wasted. Besides, Chen Quan’s current situation is simr to his, owning nothing. And having been imprisoned by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion for so many years, Chen Quan was a bit out of step with the current society. Back when they were together, almost everything was arranged by Zhu Hong, and Chen Quan only needed to take action.


    The call just now confirmed Zhu Hong’s suspicion. Without his assistance, Chen Quan was having a hard time. After Ling Beichuan was arrested, Chen Quan lost his ce to stay. Coupled with not having a penny and not understanding his surroundings, he’s been wandering outside, homeless.


    Moreover, to meet his basic needs, Chen Quan, such an elite heavenly list expert, stooped to murder and robbery. Currently, he’s wanted by the police, living a very miserable life.


    Such a master on the Heavenly List falling to this point was indeed tragic.


    "Ling Chen, just received news, Zhu Hong went to Hong Wei’s ce."


    In the manor, Tang Guolun reported on Zhu Hong’stest movements.


    "Went to Hong Wei’s?" Ling Chen asked, puzzled, "What did he go to Hong Wei for?"


    "I don’t know. By the way!" Tang Guolun said, "Lady Zhu asked me to tell you that her people have arrived in Beijing today and are on their way, they’ll arrive in about twenty minutes."


    "Got it. Boss Tang, tell everyone to perk up. Once the Zhu Family’s people arrive, we’ll take action immediately. We’ve been dyed long enough in Beijing; it’s time to finish this."


    Before long, several Land Rover SUVs drove into the manor. At this moment, Ling Chen, along with Tang Guolun and others, waited outside. Seeing the vehicles stop, Ling Chen stepped forward to greet them.


    The first to alight was Zhu Qing, followed by more than a dozen men around thirty years old. Just by their ages, Ling Chen knew that Zhu Houchang had dispatched the finest of the elite.


    Whether they’re assassins, murderers, or agents, thirty is the golden age in the industry. At this stage, they’ve gained ample experience, and their skills have been honed to perfection.


    After surveying them one by one, Ling Chen was very satisfied with the support sent by the Zhu Family.


    "Thank you for your efforts, Lady Zhu! Please take everyone to rest; the guest rooms are all prepared."


    Zhu Qing nodded and led the Zhu family members into the vi. These elite members from the Zhu Family remained silent, but their military-like discipline and qualities were evident.


    Night fell!


    Ling Chen nced at the time. It was eight o’clock, four hours until the operation.


    "Boss Tang, tell everyone the situation."


    Tang Guolun spread open a map, detailing theyout of Hong Wei’s residence.


    "We’ve been monitoring Hong Wei’s residence these past few days. Since the attack that night, Hong Wei has strengthened his security. He hired three securitypanies, with about sixty personnel in total." Tang Guolun pointed to the map’s markings, saying, "This is the main entrance, with ten security personnel on duty around the clock. There are ten patrolling the inside and outside of the perimeter wall. Apart from these thirty, the remaining security is stationed around the vi. Additionally, Zhou Qian and Ren Han from two martial arts academies are always by Hong Wei’s side, ensuring his safety. Currently, the Hong residence is like a fortress. It’s extremely difficult to infiltrate secretly."


    "That’s not the main problem," Jiang Yunkai interjected.
