Lin Hao looked at the bewildered Xiao Hei, and the equally confused Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng, and said, "This old man from the Zhou family still has some backbone."
"But his backbone doesn't mean the younger generation of the Zhou family has any."
"If we leave today, although the Zhou family elder will still keep his promise and send people to hand over, it will never be as smooth as us staying at the Zhou family."
"So..."
"Understood." Xiao Hei nodded, then looked at Lin Hao and gave him a thumbs up, saying, "Senior brother, you're still the best!"
Lin Hao smiled, then looked at Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng and said, "When the handover begins later, all of the Zhou family's real estate will be in your names."
"As for how you divide it, you two can figure it out yourselves."
"Ah?"
"No!"
"This won't do!"
Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng were startled by Lin Hao's words, then immediately shook their heads.
"Little brother, I know you mean well, but the Zhou family's assets are not a small sum," Liu Yongchang said quickly, looking at Lin Hao.
Lai Qingsheng also looked at Lin Hao and nodded, "Little brother, Old Liu is right, the Zhou family's assets are not a small sum."
"They are an old family in Modu. On the surface, they don't seem like much, but they have all sorts of hidden assets under their name."
"To be honest, if you gave us a little bit, Old Liu and I would accept it, but giving us all these assets is really not okay."
Lin Hao looked at the anxious Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng and said, "Didn't you give me money and a villa without my consent back then?"
"Besides, I don't know how to do business, nor do I know how to manage."
"Even if those things were truly given to me, they would be useless. I would just watch them lose money, go bankrupt, and be auctioned off."
"So, just take them with peace of mind."
Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng listened to Lin Hao's words. Although they felt Lin Hao made sense, they still kept shaking their heads.
"No."
"This is too casual."
"How about this."
Liu Yongchang exchanged a look with Lai Qingsheng, then Liu Yongchang looked at Lin Hao and said, "Little brother, why don't the three of us start a company together?"
"Then all the assets we take over will be incorporated into this company."
"And then you will hold seventy percent of the company's shares, and Old Lai and I will hold thirty percent."
"As for the business and management matters you mentioned, you don't need to worry about them at all. Except for major projects that require your consultation, other matters will be handled by Old Lai and me."
"Can do."
"This method is acceptable."
Lai Qingsheng also nodded immediately.
"No, you guys..."
Lin Hao looked at Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng, and finally nodded helplessly, "Alright then, we'll do as you say."
"However, let's still have thirty percent of the shares each, and the remaining ten percent will go to Xiao Hei."
"Senior brother, you guys are starting a company, what does that have to do with me?" Xiao Hei said speechlessly, looking at Lin Hao.
He was completely uninterested in company shares.
He wasn't short of money, so why would he want company shares?
"Yes, little brother, no," Liu Yongchang said anxiously, looking at Lin Hao, "Little brother, this won't do, you're giving us too many shares."
As Liu Yongchang spoke, he and Lai Qingsheng began to lecture Lin Hao.
They said a company must have a major shareholder, a backbone, and someone who holds the power of speech...
Lin Hao listened to Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng's endless talk, and finally nodded helplessly, agreeing to their newly revised equity division.
He held fifty percent, Xiao Hei held ten percent, and Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng each held twenty percent.
At the same time, Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng would also merge their existing assets and enterprises.
...
One day passed in the blink of an eye.
Evening.
As night just began to fall.
The team of Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng's company finally completed the handover with the Zhou family.
After Lin Hao had a final meeting with the Zhou family elder, he left the Zhou family.
Liu Yongchang and Lai Qingsheng wanted to have dinner with Lin Hao, but because they had just completed the handover with the Zhou family and had many important matters to attend to, they returned to the company.
Xiao Hei was driving, and Lin Hao sat in the passenger seat, looking at the dazzling night view outside the window.
And just as Xiao Hei was driving on a rather secluded road.
Behind their car, several black sedans suddenly appeared.
Xiao Hei frowned and immediately sensed something was wrong.
Then, Xiao Hei saw from the rearview mirror that the black sedans behind their car were getting more and more numerous.
At a glance, they seemed endless.
"Senior brother, something is wrong with these cars behind us. They might be coming for us," Xiao Hei gripped the steering wheel, trying to avoid a collision, and said to Lin Hao.
"Yes, I see them. Should we stop and take a look?" Lin Hao nodded.
"There are too many cars behind us. It might be dangerous if we stop," Xiao Hei said.
"Then keep driving, and let's stop somewhere with an escape route."
"Okay!"
Xiao Hei nodded and was about to step on the accelerator to rush out of the bridge ahead.
But suddenly, a bright headlight shone directly at them from the front.
Then, one by one, headlights lit up, shining directly at Xiao Hei and Lin Hao.
At this moment, Lin Hao and Xiao Hei saw dozens of cars at the bridgehead, a dense mass, slowly driving towards them.
"Senior brother, it seems we're surrounded," Xiao Hei said to Lin Hao, looking at the countless cars slowly approaching from the opposite side.
"It's alright, let's get out and take a look."
Lin Hao said, then opened the door and got out.
After getting out of the car, Lin Hao turned to look behind him and found that behind him was also a dense mass of cars, too many to count.
Lin Hao looked at the scene and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
He wondered who would create such a large scene to intercept him and Xiao Hei.
And just as Lin Hao was wondering.
The cars on the opposite side stopped when they were about fifty meters away from Lin Hao.
Then, people started getting out of those black sedans.
These people were all holding steel pipes, batons, and axes and knives.
And their numbers were so vast that they were like an army of terracotta warriors, standing in formation.
After getting out of the cars, someone walked to the front black Lincoln, opened the rear door.
Then, a middle-aged man wearing a black overcoat, a gentleman's hat, and holding a cigar slowly got out.
Xiao Hei looked at the man getting out and couldn't help but ask, "Senior brother, isn't he hot?"
Lin Hao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiao Hei and laughed, "He clearly wants to show off, and you're asking if he's hot?"
"It's thirty-eight degrees Celsius, do you think he's hot?"
"I knew it, no wonder he was wiping his forehead with a white towel as soon as he got out of the car," Xiao Hei said speechlessly.
