Chapter 417:
After half an hour of looking at all kinds of information, Lin Jianjun and Meng Yuelan looked at Lin Yuan in surprise.
That is because the data they were looking at shows that the Lu family in Jiangbei is really an offshoot of the Lu family in Shanghai.
And that Lu family in Shanghai is more powerful and influential than they imagined.
Their recent movements to penetrate into the markets of Jiangbei are successful and also vaguely touched the interests of the Lin Group!
Lin Jianjun was quite angry and said: “This Lu family disguised itself as a small family as they secretly laid out so many forces. They even penetrated many areas where our Lin Group is involved. Their actions are aimed at us!”
Meng Yuelan was also shocked and asked Lin Yuan: “Yuan’er, how did you know about the movements of the Lu family?”
Lin Yuan smiled and said, “Have you forgotten about how I can do fortune-telling at the Mei family banquet?”
Seeing Lin Yuan’s smile and confident expression, both Lin Jianjun and Meng Yuelan looked at each other in shock.
Then both of them are filled with emotion.
As the days pa.s.sed, they couldn’t see through their son more and more.
But it is a good thing that Lin Yuan is becoming more skilled and stronger.
With this in mind, they also felt relieved.
“The Lu family has already such a layout in Jiangbei. And it also intervenes with certain affairs of our group. I am afraid they are plotting something against our Lin Family.”
“Yuan’er, what should we do?”
The matter was brought to light by Lin Yuan.
And so Lin Jianjun and Meng Yuelan asked Lin Yuan what they should do.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, “If you didn’t know about this, you might actually end up being taken down by the Lu family.”
“But now that you know about it, it becomes easy to handle.”
“This Lu family obviously came to Jiangbei to do business, grab us of our business opportunities and intervene with our affairs.”
“The Lu family is most powerful in Shanghai, but Jiangbei is our territory.”
“There is no need to compete directly with them and directly block their way so that they can’t open their shops.”
“If they don’t even have a shopfront. Whether it is the steel industry, high-end furniture, or other industries they wanted to enter, they can’t do it.” Lin Yuan said casually.
“Right.” Both Lin Jianjun and Meng Yuelan nodded.
What Lin Yuan just said made a lot of sense.
If the Lu family’s hidden agenda hadn’t been discovered, it would have been a really huge problem.
In the original novel, Lin Jianjun and Meng Yuelan didn’t take the matter seriously.
Then, they bore the consequences.
But now they have found out about it early, so basically, the Lu family’s plans failed substantially.
Soon, Lin Jianjun and Meng Yuelan rolled out their orders.
They ordered to block all the shops and shopfronts related to the Lu family.
Lin Yuan also said he would help.
After all, Lin Yuan knows a lot of forces that when directly blocked will make it difficult for the Lu family to mobilize.
After dealing with the matter, Meng Yuelan asked, “Yuan’er, aren’t you good at fortune-telling? Can you predict for us? When will your father and I get to give you a younger brother or sister?”
Lin Jianjun also nodded: “Yes, you tell us.”
Lin Yuan looked speechless. “Why do you suddenly think about this?”
They are already too old.
Meng Yuelan didn’t mind Lin Yuan and continued: “You always say you wouldn’t want to inherit the company. Then shall we give birth to a younger brother or sister who would inherit and manage the company in the future?”
Lin Yuan was speechless.
He was too lazy to care about what his parents are thinking.
He then slipped upstairs.
Seeing Lin Yuan already on his way upstairs, Meng Yuelan shouted: “Your aunt from Yanjing is coming over with your cousin to spend some time here. You will have to entertain them, after all, you used to…”
Lin Yuan went upstairs and close the door directly, not completely hearing what Meng Yuelan said at the end.
……..
…….
At this time at the Lu family mansion’s living room in Jiangbei…
Ye Feng and Lu Wanli were both lying on the sofa.
Each of them has a woman in their arms while chatting happily.
Ye Feng smiled and said to Lu Wanli, “Senior brother, how is your plan going? Is it going well?”
Lu Wanli smiled and responded: “I have already deployed a lot of forces from the Lu family. And it went smoothly. The basic materials, skilled laborers, and sales promotion, etc., are all in place.”
“Jiangbei is different from Shanghai. It is not near the waters but by the mountains. So I plan to start with the furniture industry here and introduce a high-end furniture brand.”
“After all, the Lu family’s brand is well-known throughout the country. We will start with the furniture industry, and then slowly expand to the other industries we are familiar with, and finally acc.u.mulate a big capital to form a layout to corner and suppress the Lin family.”
As Lu Wanli talked about his plan, Ye Feng laughed happily and his ferocious face frightened the young lady in his arms.
But the young lady dared not to make a sound.
Lu Wanli opened his mouth again and said: “By the way, our family has too few shops in Jiangbei. I called your contact person to start a batch of shops in Jiangbei. How is the progress?”
“If possible, we can just work together. After all, we are from the same line. I still don’t want the Chen family to get involved. Otherwise, they will definitely demand a big cut.”
Ye Feng smiled and said: “Don’t worry senior brother, the establishment of shopfronts is progressing smoothly. It is the foundation after all of doing business. The contracts have been signed and the locations available are all in the major business districts so long as you have enough manpower…”
Ye Feng was just halfway-through when suddenly a person from the Jiangbei Lu family went running in from outside.
“Patriarch Lu, Young Master Ye, something has happened…”
Upon hearing this, both Ye Feng and Lu Wanli frowned.
It looks like not a trivial matter.
