Chapter 496 Lu Hantao
Chapter 496 Lu Hantao
He was wearing a black silk robe and mandarin jacket.
Her full head of silver hair was like frost and snow, her white hair turned gray by the years.
The old man gripped a deeply carved ebony cane tightly in his left hand, the copper ornaments inlaid on the head of the cane flickering in the candlelight.
His cloudy yet profound gaze pierced through the rising smoke of incense, lingering for a long time on the ancestral tablets on the altar with peeling ink, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes holding the desolation accumulated over half a lifetime of trials and tribulations.
Whenever the wind blows through the hall, the white hair at my temples and the hem of my clothes flutter together, as if having a silent dialogue with the portraits of the ancestors hanging on the four walls of the ancestral hall.
Lu Jinqiang and Luo Yong stepped into the ancestral hall.
Lu Jinqiang's voice preceded his arrival: "Uncle Tao, I've brought Ah Jiu to see you."
The elderly man slowly turned around, looked at the newcomer, and said with a gloomy expression, "Why did you bring him here? To scare me? I won't give you any shares when the company goes public, do you want him to report me?"
Lu Jinqiang laughed heartily: "Uncle Tao, you're overthinking it. How could I possibly report you? You are my great benefactor. Without Uncle Tao, there would be no Lu Jinqiang today."
Uncle Tao, as you know, I, Lu Jinqiang, am someone who knows how to repay kindness.
The elderly man remained unmoved, glancing at Luo Yongjiu: "What, you want to report me, saying that I was the mastermind behind Lu Yongyuan's murder, huh?"
Luo Yong's face twitched a few times, and he said, "If you don't welcome me, then I'll leave."
Say it.
Luo Yong then turned around and prepared to leave.
Lu Jinqiang called out to him, "Why are you leaving? You've done so much for the company, why are you leaving?"
Luo Yong turned around and stood there, frozen in place.
Lu Hantao said, "You've put in the effort, haven't I paid you? Look at you guys, these past few years, you've been wearing gold and silver, making a fortune, isn't that enough?"
Lu Jinqiang raised an eyebrow, slowly walked to the offering table, picked up an incense stick, lit it, and said, "Is this enough? Justice will prevail. If you don't give it, I'll take it myself."
Lu Jinqiang bowed three times and placed the incense sticks into the incense burner.
Lu Hantao chuckled a few times and said, "What bargaining chips do you have to turn against me?"
陆金强拜完祖先,回头说道:“664/233/652/889/3003/11/739/738/857RP58RP。。。。。。”
"Wait, wait, wait!" Lu Hantao raised his hand to interrupt Lu Jinqiang. "Everything you're talking about belongs to my Lu Guo Group. What are you pretending to be?"
Li Jian then realized that the numbers on Lu Jinqiang's game interface were all land numbers of the Lu Guo Group.
Lu Jinqiang laughed and held up four fingers, saying, "Me, pretend to be a grandson? Your land has been completely taken by the Wan family and Situ Guang. In the future, most of the land in our New Territories will belong to those four big bosses. You blind old fool."
After being scolded by Lu Jinqiang, Lu Hantao couldn't help but raise his head and glare at him angrily.
Lu Jinqiang laughed and said, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a handsome guy before? Old man, you've seen my bargaining chip, want to chat?"
Lu Hantao was like a tiger whose bones had been removed; he immediately lost his spirit.
Li Jian was engrossed in watching, completely unaware that Ma Jiaohong beside him had already woken up.
I saw Li Jian playing on his phone.
Ma Jiaohong considerately snuggled into the quilt.
Li Jian was suddenly at someone's mercy, just like Lu Hantao.
It's really unpleasant to have someone else hold something over you.
Lu Jinqiang and Lu Hantao chatted for a long time, until an incense stick burned out before they left.
After Lu Jinqiang and Luo Yong left.
Wan Xiaochu and Lu Yongyu then walked into the ancestral hall together.
Chef Wan asked impatiently, "Uncle Tao, what conditions did Lu Jinqiang offer you?"
Lu Hantao did not answer his question, but asked in return, "Situ Guang offered some wasteland in exchange for my land, and what conditions did he offer you?"
Upon hearing this, Chef Wan was startled and glanced at Lu Yongyu, somewhat at a loss.
Lu Yongyu shook his head, indicating that he hadn't told his father.
Wan Xiaochu straightened her clothes to hide her embarrassment: "Lu Guo wants to go public, so I have to cooperate with them."
Lu Hantao snorted coldly: "Cooperate with them? Not with me?"
Chef Wan smiled crookedly: "Uncle Tao, this is not a matter between you and me now. The big boss has already made a decision."
Lu Hantao paused for a moment, then pointed at the beam of the ancestral hall and roared, "Big boss, big boss, big boss, all you know how to do is use him to pressure me. Now go and tell him that I don't want to listen to his nonsense."
Tell them to get out of here, and you get out too.
Chef Wan squatted down, patted Lu Hantao, and said, "Uncle Tao, the rule in the New Territories is that the inheritance is passed down to sons, not daughters. Since Lu Guo is not listed on the stock exchange, Yongyu will never be able to inherit your influence in the New Territories."
Lu Hantao said, "This is between my daughter and me, it has nothing to do with you!"
Chef Wan was severely scolded and slunk away to the side to reflect on his actions.
Lu Yongyu gave him a wink and slowly walked up to Lu Hantao.
Lu Yongyu was still wearing a black and white suit jacket, with flesh-colored stockings covering her beautiful legs, showing off her perfect leg shape.
The candlelight flickered in the ancestral hall, casting a dim glow on Lu Yongyu's profile, creating a sophisticated beauty.
Lu Yongyu spoke softly, "Dad, it was my decision to cooperate with Situ Guang; it has nothing to do with him."
Lu Hantao looked up, unable to believe what he had just heard.
Lu Hantao swallowed hard and said, "Back then, I was just a small village chief. Several big real estate developers came to the New Territories to acquire land and acted like tyrants."
As Lu Hantao spoke, a look of past memories crossed his face. He clenched his fist and said, "Your mother, it was your mother who asked me to step forward and help those powerless and insignificant villagers."
Lu Hantao patted his chest forcefully and said, "I swore I would fight those real estate developers to the bitter end, and what happened? They hired someone to run over your mother... And now you want me to cooperate with the people who killed your mother?"
Lu Yongyu stood silently to the side, listening intently, not daring to breathe.
Lu Hantao suddenly reached out, grabbed Lu Yongyu's arm, and shook it violently: "Tell me, how do you expect me to cooperate with them? Ah—ah—"
Lu Hantao threw away his crutches and clutched his chest in pain.
Lu Yongyu rushed forward and asked anxiously, "Dad? Dad? Dad, how are you?"
Lu Yongyu turned around and shouted to Chef Wan, "Quick, get the medicine out!"
In the video, Lu Yongyu shouted very loudly and urgently.
After all, human life matters.
Inside the covers, Ma Jiaohong hurriedly tried to crawl out, but Li Jian held her down.
Woohoo——
Woohoo——
Woohoo——
Chef Wan took out the medicine and injected it into Lu Hantao's stomach, which brought Lu Hantao back to his senses.
Lu Yongyu grasped Lu Hantao's hand and said, "Dad, everything will be alright."
Lu Hantao cupped his daughter's face and said, "Nothing will be alright, something will definitely happen."
Lu Hantao pressed his forehead against his daughter's and said, "Daughter, you can't beat them, you can't beat them."
Lu Yongyu said, "I know, let's go home."
