Hearing this, Hao Jian chuckled lightly and said, "Indeed, I really need to thank myself. If it weren't for my presence, perhaps you would still be the boss of a failing company." Hao Jian's eyes stared at Lin Jiahao and said, "I now have to take back the investments I made in you. Even though I don't care about that bit of money, just thinking that this money is on someone like you makes me feel sick." For the second time, disdain came from Lin Jiahao's mouth. The Lin Family also sneered at Hao Jian's words, refusing to believe what he said. To them, this was just an act. How could he possibly take back those investments? They had already made those funds part of their company's books, making it their own, rather than external capital investments. With drooped eyelids, Hao Jian picked up his phone and sent a text to a number, a single word, 'move,' meaning they could take action now. "Boss, Young Master Hao has sent word! He said we can start now!" Spice Ginger, who had been waiting for Hao Jian's message, suddenly heard the voice of his subordinate. He quickly swallowed the coffee in his mouth, wiped his mouth with his hand, and said, "Since the order has come, why are you still hanging around here?! Get down and do what you need to do!" "Inform the finance and PR departments, have them shut down Lin Corporation's factory for me, and as for stocks and such, do everything you can to make Lin Corporation go bankrupt. Whatever happens, Young Master Hao and I will bear it, go all out! Reputation is the most important! We can't let these petty people look down on us!" The messenger nodded heavily, then turned around and walked out. He needed to relay Hao Jian and Spice Ginger's orders to his brothers. "Boss, should we deal with those people while we're at it?" At this moment, one of Spice Ginger's subordinates suddenly pointed at the people around Lin Family's villa. These people, dressed in security and suit uniforms and holding sticks, were clearly ready for a fight. Upon hearing this, Spice Ginger was stunned for a moment. He looked up, saw those people, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes. He sneered, "Deal with them, why not?! We need to give our old friend a gift, and also make sure this is done beautifully. I want those with any second thoughts to know what it looks like to betray us!" These security guards and bodyguards were naturally the forces Lin Jiahao had hired, and it was because of them that he had the courage to confront Hao Jian. There were rumors that Hao Jian was an exceptional fighter, and without these people, Lin Jiahao wouldn't dare to stand in front of him. These fifty people were his confidence. No one in the world could take on fifty people alone unscathed—at least, that's what he thought. But now Spice Ginger was planning to make a move on these people, intending to destroy the enemy both mentally and physically. At this moment, all he could do was destroy the enemy's mental resolve, leaving the physical confrontation to Hao Jian, who was already facing the crowd. With Hao Jian's capabilities, dealing with these people would be like child's play, right? On this point, Spice Ginger was especially earnest. Aside from Hao Jian's subordinates on God of Death Island, Spice Ginger was the most aware of his strength. He was a humanoid weapon; even guns were ineffective against him, so how could he not be a weapon? "Yes!" Upon hearing, the subordinate nodded quickly, then turned and left. With Spice Ginger's order, he naturally had to go prepare to take action. His subordinates were all raring to go; with just one command, they would move instantly! "Brothers!" As the subordinate arrived downstairs and saw the hundred-man squad, his face flushed with excitement, and he shouted, "The boss has given the order. We're to take out fifty small fry for Young Master Hao! I don't care what tricks you play, but you must take these fifty people down! Not one can escape. We need to show Young Master Hao that we're strong too!" Upon hearing this, the group responded loudly and then roared in unison. ........................... "Hmph! Playing tricks!" Seeing Hao Jian take out his phone and then put it back, followed by just staring at him without speaking, Lin Jiahao's face turned a bit ugly. Was this guy trying to mess with him?! "Dad, quickly deal with this guy! Our company still has work to do. I heard that Mr. Nakano Yuta and Mr. Nakajima Kaichuu from East Ocean are coming over in the next few days to discuss business with us. We should focus on them." Mentioning this, Shen Xia's face displayed a smugness. These two clients had been brought in by him. One held a wealth of corporate resources, and the other controlled a lot of capital. Their strength was definitely above Lin Corporation. Combined, they could even contend with the world-renowned Shu Ya Group. With such strength, once they were brought under their wing, wouldn't they get whatever they want in Huaxia? Then, by expanding the overseas market a bit, wouldn't making money be as easy as breathing? Once they had money, would Lin Qingxue's inheritance even matter? However, the shares still needed to be reclaimed somehow. Listening to his son, Lin Jiahao suddenly realized that his target wasn't the two people in front of him but the signing contract with Nakano Yuta and Nakajima Kaichuu! Overestimating oneself… Hearing Shen Xia's words, especially the names mentioned, Hao Jian's expression turned slightly peculiar, but then he shook his head. These two were really something! However, Spice Ginger's side should be almost done, right? Thinking of this, Hao Jian glanced at his watch. It's been five minutes since he sent the message. This short time might not be much for others, but for them, a lot could be done, especially in sabotage… "Ring, ring, ring..." The phone's ringtone suddenly went off, and Lin Jiahao's face showed a slight surprise. It was his phone. No one should be calling him at this time, as he had instructed his secretary not to disturb him unless it was an emergency today. "Ring, ring, ring..." As Lin Jiahao's phone rang, Shen Xia's phone also started ringing, making him a bit puzzled. However, he still pressed the answer button. The father and son answered their phones simultaneously, and the moment they did, their faces changed in unison, exclaiming, "Is what you're saying true?!" "Chairman (General Manager), there's a problem with the company!" "Our company's stocks suddenly dropped as someone is madly selling them!" "Then why haven't you bought those shares back for me? Use your names! I'll provide the funds!" "Chairman, we can't… We can't! Buying them back will incur even more loss!" On Lin Jiahao's end, it was the secretary calling. In short, someone had been holding onto a large amount of their company's stock and was now selling it off furiously, driving the stock value down. "General Manager! The workers in our factory, for some reason, suddenly started fighting, and now a few production lines have stopped! Moreover, the fight has caused varying degrees of damage… Ah… No! It's bad! It's bad!" Fresh chapters posted on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩 Shen Xia's face darkened upon hearing the employee's report. Those were production lines! Without these, how could their company produce anything?! "General Manager, this… this… our production lines have been wrecked by those workers… And just now, a message came through saying that in the other three factories, over half of the production lines and products have also been destroyed, with an estimated loss of seven to eight billion..." Hearing this, Shen Xia shuddered. This loss was enormous… "Chairman, the estimated stock loss is over ten billion..." "Ring, ring, ring..." The calls kept coming, one after another, leaving Lin Jiahao and Shen Xia's faces numb. In such a short time, their company had lost nearly twenty billion out of nowhere. A few more instances of this, and their hundred-billion assets wouldn't suffice to cover the losses! "General Manager, we just received notification that Mr. Nakano Yuta and Mr. Nakajima Kaichuu have suddenly declined our invitation, and also asked to cancel the collaboration. If we don't, they will take drastic measures. Although I tried to retain them, both dismissed us with a breach penalty of three million..." Hearing this, Shen Xia's face turned even paler. These two were Lin Corporation's hope! What could have driven them to so mercilessly pay the breach penalty? He had been contemplating how to secure a more lucrative formal contract with these two. Now, the three-million penalty wasn't even enough to cover a fraction of their losses... "Boss... we... we were ambushed..." Yet the despairing bad news hadn't ended. In the next call to Lin Jiahao, a trembling and terrified voice came through: "These people are strong, we can't beat them!" Lin Jiahao was momentarily stunned, unable to comprehend what the call conveyed. The next instant… The gate of the Lin Family's villa was suddenly crashed open. A group of people walked in unceremoniously, faces cold, strides synchronized, an aura of annihilation sweeping over.
