Chapter 200 Baby worth 20 billion
After dinner, Chu Mo made a cup of tea for everyone. This time he didn't have to clean up the dishes, Tang Tang consciously went to the kitchen to do the aftermath work.
"Chu Mo, I heard from Geng Pan of the Ross family that you bought the Paradise Island in his hand for $20 billion?"
It was already 9:30 in the evening. At this time, the lights outside the window were brightly lit. Chu Mo was busy with the school donations all day long. At this time, he really wanted to relax.
Unfortunately, the old man in front of him was not his subordinate. If it were Zhan Bingxue, he could pass it at will. But facing Mr. Lu, who is awe of everyone in the demon city, Chu Mo must cheer up. After taking a deep breath, he spoke:
"It's true, but it can't be said that I just used 20 billion US dollars to win that island. The heir of the Ross family made a private deal. There is nothing to hide. It's about the Longevity Club, which is about 20 billion US dollars to buy a paradise island, and a list of 50 top scientists in the world."
After Chu Mo's words fell, Master Lu in front of him nodded thoughtfully, and he said softly:
"I see!"
Chu Mo picked up the tea in front of him, took a sip, and then put down the teacup. When he saw that the old man opposite him had always looked thoughtful, Chu Mo, who didn't want to play the puzzle, asked directly:
"Mr. Lu came here this time, maybe he had something to come to me. With our relationship, it's okay."
Before, whether it was the island matter or the heir of the Ross family, the help of the Master Lu in front of him was helped to build a bridge. Master Lu had incomparable connections. Not to mention in the Demon City, even if he looked at the entire China and even the entire world, he had a certain influence. This was far from comparable to Chu Mo.
Chu Mo must have many places to use Mr. Lu’s connections in the future. Not to mention the distance, he used Mr. Lu as a bridge to connect with the Rothschild family.
In addition, he and Lu Siyue had a good personal relationship with the eldest daughter of the Lu family, so no matter what, since Mr. Lu personally asked him to come, as long as it was not a troublesome thing, Chu Mo would help him.
Chu Mo's expression was plain, and the old man opposite sat upright slightly. He also picked up the tea and sipped it gently, nodded slightly and said:
"Good tea!"
Putting his eyes on Chu Mo, Mr. Lu, who looked a little complicated, said softly: "Chu Mo, you should know that our four major families have their own industries. The Zhou family in the Magic City mainly operates the entertainment industry, the Wu family focuses on real estate, and the Lin family has the largest industry, spread all over the country, mainly doing foreign trade business. As for our Lu family... I wonder if Chu Mo, have you heard of Feiyue Technology?"
Chu Mo nodded slightly. He really didn't know about Feiyue Technology before. However, when he went to see Master Lu before, Chu Mo had specially asked Jiang Tao, the president of the detective agency, to check Mr. Lu's information, so he naturally had some understanding of Feiyue Technology, the pillar industry of the Lu family.
Feiyue Technology is a city operation and management company with a market value of 230 billion yuan. It mainly serves as a security product and industry solution provider. It is ranked fourth in the world and the first in video surveillance. However, according to the information found by Jiang Tao, this Feiyue Technology seems to have some problems in its operation.
Chu Mo didn't care at that time, but now, in connection with Mr. Lu's previous behavior of selling calligraphy and paintings, I'm afraid that Feiyue Technology should have a lot of problems.
Nodding slightly, Chu Mo, who had gradually had an answer in his heart, spoke:
"I know a little, but I don't know in detail. Is Mr. Lu looking for me because of Feiyue Technology?"
This time, Mr. Lu was not hiding it, he said directly:
“That’s true.”
After his words fell, Chu Mo felt a little relieved.
I received a call from Master Lu before. On the way I came, Chu Mo kept guessing why Master Lu was looking for him. Originally, he thought that there was something wrong with his cooperation with the Rothschild family, so Master Lu, who was an intermediary, came forward. Now that he knew that it had nothing to do with the Roths family, Chu Mo put his mind in his stomach. He sat upright and said solemnly:
"Mr. Lu, with our friendship, if you have something to do, I, Chu Mo, will never be vague."
A gleam flashed in his eyes on the sofa opposite. The old man who had previously looked amiable instantly returned to his serious and serious appearance. He nodded to Chu Mo with great sincerity, and then said softly:
"Because I have not put too much thought on my work over the years, the company has experienced a series of major decision-making mistakes. Feiyue Technology is now in a very difficult situation and urgently needs a large amount of funds to settle in. Chu Mo, since you know Feiyue Technology, you should also know what this company means to our Lu family. If Feiyue Technology collapses, our Lu family will inevitably be greatly damaged. In the future, the four major families in the Magic City may become three major families. For the Lu family, this is definitely a catastrophic consequence.
At present, our entire Lu family is spending the entire family to solve the problem, but the lack of funds is still a bit large, so…!”
Before the old man's words could be finished, Chu Mo said directly:
"I'll make up for you how many are missing!"
Taking a deep breath, the old man with a look of excitement on his face nodded:
"No wonder April told me that you would definitely promise to help. Chu Mo, if our Lu family can survive this disaster smoothly, our entire Lu family will definitely not forget your kindness... In this way, I, Lu, are not the kind of person who is greedy for others' advantages. Over the years, my family's collection rooms have collected hundreds of treasures, so I will mortgage them to you. Even if Feiyue Technology collapses, those treasures will be enough to offset your losses."
Chu Mo waved his hand. He knew that Mr. Lu liked antiques and toys, and those things were all the treasures of Mr. Lu. The reason why he took action was because of Mr. Lu's friendship, or because of Mr. Lu's huge connections, not those antiques. So Chu Mo, who shook his head slightly, said directly:
"Master Lu, I dare not ask for the things. You can just say how much money you lack. If you have more, it's still no problem to have billions."
After Chu Mo's words fell, the old man said solemnly:
"Brothers also have to settle the accounts clearly. You can't lose a penny. If you don't want it, I'm not at ease with this money. Chu Mo, since you can trust me, I'll tell you a lot. In the past few decades, I have collected a total of 170 treasures, and spent 6.3 billion soft sister coins. These things have a history of hundreds or even thousands of years. Even if they are taken out for auction, according to my estimate, 7 billion can still be sold.
I count you six billion for these 170 treasures. Then our Lu family is also a big family with a history of hundreds of years. It has some background. There are many treasures left by our ancestors. The jade that the girl just brought on her neck was one of them. Of course, since I gave that gem to the girl, I naturally can't count it. I'll give you a clear idea. There are 37 treasures left by the ancestors of the Lu family. Remove that piece of jade and thirty-six, with a total valuation of 12.5 billion. Add to the previous six billion, a total of 18.5 billion... How about it, Chu Mo, can you eat it?"
Chu Mo's expression remained unchanged, and he felt a little moved in his heart. It was indeed worthy of being one of the four major families. The foundation was not comparable to that of ordinary families. To be honest, these treasures are enough for countless people to fight for the rest of their lives. In fact, even if the Lu family goes bankrupt, as long as they hold these treasures, they can guarantee that generations of people will not have to worry about food and clothing.
Of course, with Mr. Lu's identity and vision, compared with these antiques, he valued the reputation of the Lu family more. Antiques can be sold again after they are gone. As long as the Lu family does not fall, they will not get anything. If the Lu family's card is down, then it is almost impossible to rebuild the Lu family in the Demon City.
Chu Mo's mind was circulating, 18.5 billion, not a big deal. He would cost 600 billion to buy an island. Compared with the island, this amount of money really doesn't matter.
However, he bought a lot of antiques for nearly 20 billion yuan, but he didn't even know where to put them. This is not his thing. If it is his own, for example, the calligraphy and paintings he bought for 500 million yuan last time, it is his own thing. He is still in the corner of the bedroom and doesn't have to worry about anything at all times. If the hundreds of things here are really damaged, where will he go to accompany him?
The old man opposite saw Chu Mo silently, thinking that Chu Mo was hesitating, and he didn't urge him. After a moment of silence, the old man said in a voice:
"Chu Mo, are there any difficulties? Otherwise, I will take you to take advantage of these things..."
The old man was thinking about how much it was appropriate, but Chu Mo suddenly waved his hand and said:
"Master Lu, it's not a question of how much money it costs. One or two hundred billion yuan, I haven't taken it seriously yet. It's just that these things are your treasures. If I break it for you or touch it, I can't explain it to you."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu, who suddenly laughed heartily, said with a smile on his face:
"Haha... I think of anything. If I had used to be, these treasures might have been more important than my life. But now, after this family crisis, I have deeply realized that without a home, it would be useless for me to have more treasures, and even if I can't keep them, I can't keep them.
To be honest, I have been having fun for decades and basically rarely care about the family company. This is why I end up now. I have been eating and playing, and I have played with it for decades. I have nothing to let go. Now, I just want to manage the entire family well and wait for myself to leave a complete Lu family for my descendants, rather than a luxuriant Lu family full of holes. These antiques and heirlooms, you bought them for money, and it is yours. Even if you throw them away and smash them, I won’t say a word about it.”
The old man smiled sincerely, without any reluctance or pretentiousness.
Chu Mo could see that after this family crisis, Mr. Lu completely let go of a lot. Otherwise, with his high moral character, he would not have been able to discuss this matter with his junior.
Since this is the case, Chu Mo had nothing to worry about. He nodded slightly. One hundred and eighty.5 billion was just a few moves of his fingers. However, these nearly 20 billion antique treasures are real treasures that have passed down from generation to generation. After a hundred years, he will leave these things to his descendants. He has a system and unlimited bank cards, but his descendants do not have them. Even if the Chu family encounters any major crisis in the future, these antiques may help the Chu family survive a piece.
Thinking of this, Chu Mo nodded directly, and he said sincerely:
"Master Lu, I won't take advantage of you. I'll make up for you for two billion. These antiques, calligraphy and paintings will be named Chu in the future."
After Chu Mo's words fell, the old man opposite him looked slightly solemn. He knew that Chu Mo wanted to completely own these antiques this time, instead of keeping them on his behalf as before.
The old man closed his eyes slightly. To be honest, he felt a little reluctant. After all, many of the antiques were left by the ancestors and passed down from generation to generation. They were corrupted in his hands. He really felt this deep guilt.
However, in the entire Chinese country, except Chu Mo, no one can eat so many antiques at a time. Antiques are nothing else. Although they maintain their value, if they want to maximize their price, they must meet their favorite buyers. Even if the Lu family creates connections and sells all these antiques, they may be able to buy 20 billion, but the time spent is definitely measured in years. At that time, the Lu family in the Demon City may no longer exist.
The old man looked straight at the young man in front of him, and he nodded slightly, as if he had agreed to Chu Mo's proposal.
If the antiques are gone, you can buy them again. With the connections of the Lu family, as long as you overcome this difficulty, it will not be difficult to collect dozens or hundreds of treasures as heirlooms in the future. So, after nodding slightly, the old man said deeply:
"Just as Chu Mo said, 20 billion, a total of 206 treasures. Don't worry, Chu Mo, I, Lu Benqiang, guaranteed by my personality, promised that you will never lose one item, and you will never take half of it as a inferior one."
The old man looked solemn, and Chu Mo naturally knew that the other party would do what he said. The title of Master Lu of the Demon City could not do anything to deceive himself as a junior.
When the two reached a deal, their expressions were much more relaxed. At this moment, Master Lu suddenly stepped off a bloody ring from his finger, and his voice was loud:
"This ring is one of the thirty-seven heirlooms. Emperor Qianlong's thing is the same as the jade on the girl's neck just now. The two items are separated, and one can only be worth 400 million to 500 million. If the two items are combined, starting from 1.5 billion to less than 1.5 billion, then the other party will be insincere."
The old man with a smile on his face placed a ring full of ancient aura in front of him. Anyway, this was his thing. Chu Mo was not hesitating and directly held the ring containing blood in front of him in his hand and played with it, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
At this time, Tang Tang in the kitchen just finished washing the dishes and chopsticks. While wiping the water stains on her hands with a tissue, she slightly lowered her head and walked towards the living room.
However, Chu Mo found that her body was trembling slightly, and her whole cheeks were blushing.
Obviously, she should have heard Mr. Lu’s last words just now.
Before, she thought that the blood-colored jade on her neck could be worth one hundred and eight hundred million, which was a rare treasure. However, just in the kitchen, when she clearly heard that the jade on her neck was actually Mr. Lu's family heirloom, worth 400 million to 500 million, and if it was placed with the ring, it would start with 1.5 billion, and she was completely uneasy.
I was determined to return the jade, but I was very reluctant to leave it.
But if she didn't return it, she would be frightened to accept the items of 1.8 million, but she would not have the courage to accept the items of 4.5 billion. This thing was brought to Mr. Lu, a family heirloom. It would be a disaster that could cause the destruction of his family.
Tang Tang walked gently to Chu Mo, hesitated for a moment, and the starry eyes were full of struggle, but in the end it turned into a firm girl and took off the jade from her neck. She said carefully, "Well, Senior Chu, I don't know that this thing is so expensive, I really don't dare to ask for it."
After the girl finished speaking, Chu Mo and Master Lu looked at each other, and they both burst into laughter.
Chu Mo raised his head gently, looked at the girl in front of him, put the ring that Emperor Jialong brought in his hand in front of the girl, and said with a playful look:
Chapter completed!
