HCB Chapter 147 Leaving
Chapter 147 Leaving
Chao Bufan knew that Old Tang was the richest person here. Firstly, he was a senior executive, and secondly, he used to be the chairman of the Tang Group. Although the Tang Group had a portion of the state-owned assets, most of them belonged to him, so he had made a lot of money here.
Old Tang said, "Not bad, I can personally contribute two hundred million."
The four army commanders said in unison, "We can also contribute 200 million."
The old leader smiled somewhat embarrassedly and said, "I'm not as rich as them, at most I have a hundred million."
Tang Qianqian said, "Bufan, I..."
Chao Bufan quickly said, "Forget about yours."
In his view, what was hers was also his, and there was no need for it at all.
Upon hearing this, Tang Qianqian said "Oh," and Chao Bufan smiled slightly, saying, "In that case, it would be 1.1 billion in total. So many countries are involved in this drug smuggling. If we average it out, each country would only get tens of millions. That's not enough."
Old Tang said, "In that case, I'll apply to the higher authorities for a grant for you."
Chao Bufan chuckled inwardly and smiled, "Let's forget about applying for funding from above! Old Tang, catching these big fish isn't something that can be done in a day or two. How about this, I'll just deduct the portion that the Tang Group pays to the state every month. As for how many months, I can't say for sure."
Old Tang nodded and said, "That's fine. I'll explain the reasons to the higher-ups later."
"Alright, then hurry up and give me the money you have! I need to get started."
Old Tang asked, "Need any help?"
"No need, I've already prepared the manpower. Just transfer the money to this card of mine."
Old Tang and the others did as he was told, transferring the money into Chao Bufan's personal card. Chao Bufan secretly chuckled, then put the card away and said with a smile, "Qianqian, I'm going to look for that Sun Village now. It might take a few days before I'm back. If you need anything, just go to Lü Tie; he'll help you."
Upon hearing this, Old Tang asked, "Bufan, are you really going to find that Sun Village?"
Chao Bufan nodded and said, "Well, I'll see if I can ask a few people from Sun Village to come out and help. It would be great if we could, but if they're unwilling, I'll have to find a way to get them to teach me a few moves."
The old commander said, "Young man, do you still need someone to teach you?"
"That's right, learning has no end! It's rare to find like-minded people like me in HX, so I need to exchange ideas and discuss things with them. You all just wait! After I share my experiences with them, I'll come back and tell you all. I guarantee you'll all benefit immensely," Chao Bufan said confidently.
Old Tang nodded and chuckled, "That's right, that's right!"
Chao Bufan seemed to have thought of something and said to the old chief, "Old chief, I heard someone say that they wanted to kidnap your daughter. I don't know if it's true or not, but she's about to graduate. I think you should send someone to bring your daughter back from school and let her be with Qianqian. I think Qianqian will protect your daughter. What do you say, Qianqian?"
Qianqian, not understanding, nodded and smiled, saying, "Yes, I will protect her."
Upon hearing this, the old commander immediately understood what Chao Bufan was thinking. He was so angry he almost exploded, but he couldn't lash out immediately because Tang Qianqian was there. So he could only smile slightly and say, "Let's wait until she graduates! I'll have a few people secretly protect her."
Tang Qianqian said, "Old Chief, I think what Bufan said is right. I also think you should take your daughter out of school. Anyway, she can work at Tang's Group after she graduates. Let's just treat her as an intern for now."
The old leader sighed inwardly: "Silly niece! Didn't this kid tell you? He's using a double-edged sword, his true intentions are elsewhere! And you're still defending him, sigh!"
Old Tang smiled slightly and said, "Old Chief, just listen to him!"
"you……"
The old commander was surprised, and said with a wry smile, "Even you say so, then alright!"
Chao Bufan grinned and said, "Old Chief, that's right! With Qianqian protecting her, what are you worried about? Don't worry, I'll take good care of her too." Then he changed the subject, "Um... I have to go find the legendary Sun Village now, everyone, excuse me."
Qianqian quickly asked, "Bufan, are you leaving now?"
Chao Bufan nodded and said, "Yes, I'm afraid the situation might change. I have a feeling that the person who is targeting me is right next to us."
"Ah?" Tang Qianqian exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly asked, "What should we do?"
Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "Since he's here to deal with me, he'll definitely come looking for me. I need to do everything I can to arm myself and become stronger."
Old Tang asked, "Bufan, when do you plan to set off?"
Chao Bufan replied, "Now! I'll go find Sun Village right now."
A hint of reluctance flashed across Tang Qianqian's face. Chao Bufan noticed it and smiled slightly, "Qianqian, don't worry, I'll be back soon, and I'll be back safe and sound."
Tang Qianqian hummed in agreement and said softly, "Bufan, then be careful!"
Chao Bufan's heart tightened, and he quickly smiled slightly and said, "I will, then I'll be going."
After Chao Bufan left, Tang Qianqian also went to work. After all, today was a special day for the company, as they were holding a product press conference at 3:30 pm.
***
The hour-and-a-half-long press conference concluded successfully and perfectly. After get off work, Tang Qianqian dragged her tired body out of the company and happened to see Huang Mengting and the other two waiting at the door. She smiled slightly and went up to them: "Mengting, what brings you here?"
Huang Mengting laughed and said, "We arrived a long time ago! In fact, we even attended your company's new product press conference!"
"Huh?" Tang Qianqian was slightly surprised and asked in surprise, "You guys are here too? I didn't see you here."
Li Wei laughed and said, "We originally wanted to say hello to you, but seeing how busy you were, we didn't want to bother you."
Tang Qianqian smiled and said, "Don't even mention it, I'm exhausted."
Huang Mengting smiled and said, "Perfect timing, let's go, I'll take you to relax."
"Where are we going?" Tang Qianqian asked.
"Let's go clubbing, of course! Let's go!"
Tang Qianqian was exhausted, so she smiled slightly and said, "Let's skip it this time! I'm almost dead from exhaustion, where would I find the energy to go clubbing!"
"You don't understand, do you? The more tired you are, the more you need to have some fun. Let's go!"
Huang Mengting pulled and dragged Tang Qianqian into her car. Tang Qianqian reluctantly got in and said, "Mengting, let me make this clear: we can go, but we can't stay out too late."
Huang Mengting smiled and said, "Okay."
