The Zhao Family Makes a Move
"But according to our investigation, although Zhao Desheng's business has not reached a large scale, we still need a lot of capital and time to occupy it," the fourth master suddenly said.
"Then stop and focus on taking down Zhao Desheng's business instead," The eldest Zhao Derong said sternly.
"But, the losses caused by this..." The fourth master hesitated.
"You are way too narrow-sighted!" Zhao Derong bellowed. "But have you calculated how much profit we can bring to the family after we take over Zhao Desheng's business?"
"You only know how to look at the gains and losses of the moment, but you haven't even considered looking at the long term!"
After being reprimanded by the eldest Zhao Derong, the other five Zhao masters present all kept silent like cicadas in winter.
"What's wrong? Why isn't anyone talking? Aren't you all usually very smug? You are always showing off your strength in front of others and shouting."
"You don't even dare to fart at me now, right? Can't you help me out more? All of you just don't want me to catch a break!"
Zhao Derong looked around at his younger brothers. These people had been using the Zhao family's power to gain benefits for themselves, but now, when the family needed them to contribute, none of them dared to step out and take up the responsibility.
"Big brother, if you can trust me, then leave this matter to me." The third brother, Zhao Decong, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said.
"Ah Xing, I'll be at ease if you take action. You're more careful and meticulous than your brothers, so I'll leave it to you." Zhao Derong's expression softened when he saw that it was his third brother, who had the calmest personality among his brothers.
"Big brother, the one who knocked fifth brother out seems to be called Yan Wuyue. What should we do with her?" the fourth master asked asked.
"Where's the information?" Zhao Derong asked his subordinate.
"I've just finished my investigation and sent it to your phones," The subordinate immediately said.
The Zhao family's masters all picked up their phones and began to read Yan Wuyue's information.
"The Yan family? I've never even heard of it, so it's probably just a small family there. It's nothing to be worried about."
The fourth master first took a look at the family background column and immediately laughed. "How dare she offend the Zhao family? With this kind of background, we can kill her with a fart!"
"Can't you finish reading everything before you speak?" Zhao Derong cursed angrily.
The fourth master's head shrank, and then he looked back down obediently. After that, an expression of shock appeared on his face.
"The first place of the freshmen tournament of Heavenly Saints Academy, and she has already been contacted by Chen Xiangtian of the Empire's Research Institute. According to the information, she is suspected to be someone Dean Wan has instructed to protect?" the fourth master's brows furrowed.
"The person that Dean Wan wants to protect." Zhao Derong could not help but rub his temples.
The Zhao family's masters all looked troubled. After all, with their status, they were very clear about which influential superpowers existed within the country.
If it were the four major Research Institutes, perhaps the Zhao family wouldn't find it so troublesome.
Only people at their level would know who the Empire's Research Institute represented.
Sometimes, being powerful within the country didn't mean that one could act however they wanted. In fact, the more it was at times like this, the more one needed to be clear of one's own status and standing.
After a long silence, Zhao Derong said, "Are there any of our people in the Heavenly Saint Academy or the Empire's Research Institute?"
"Fourth brother's grandson and my granddaughter are both in Heavenly Saints Academy. One is in third year, and the other is about to graduate from fourth year and move on to the Research Institute," Grandpa Zhao replied.
"Then let the two of them go and check out how good this Yan Wuyue is. How dare she interfere in our family's affairs," Zhao Derong ordered indifferently.
Until now, he still didn't know that it was Zhou Mingrui who had defeated Zhao Guian.
After all, the entire battle had been obscured by Zhou Mingrui's Samsara Territory, and nobody could join the battle because it had been too intense.
The people who were awake all assumed that both Zhao Guian and Zhao Qishiba were knocked unconscious by Chen Xiangtian.
They didn't dare to mess with the Empire's Research Institute, so they could only blame Zhao Desheng for everything.
......
Heavenly Saint Academy.
"Brother, that's what happened. First Grandpa asked us to go and check this Yan Wuyue out. If possible, we'll teach this person a lesson," Zhao Yunjin said to her cousin, Zhao Dayi, "You have to come with me."
Zhao Dayi frowned. "Are you talking about that Yan Wuyue? The one who won first place in the freshmen competition and is known as the strongest freshman of this year? "
Zhao Yunjin immediately frowned. "Freshmen tournament? I was too busy and didn't have time to watch it. What's the matter? Is she very powerful?"
Zhao Dayi's face was instantly filled with excitement as he said, "You weren't there to watch, but she's really strong. I don't even know how to describe her strength."
Zhao Yunjin hesitated. "But first grandpa just said on the phone that we have to teach her a lesson. You know his temper. If we don't listen to him, we'll be in trouble when we get home."
Zhao Dayi shook his head. "Sister, listen to my advice. You didn't watch her match, so you have no idea how strong she is. My opinion is that it's best not to provoke her."
"Then how are we going to explain this to grandpa?" Zhao Yunjin asked, troubled.
Zhao Dayi also knew Zhao Derong's temper, so he thought for a moment before saying, "The two of us definitely can't do it, but we don't have to do it ourselves."
"Sister, I remember that you have a lot of suitors. Why don't you try to spread the news? That way, you can stay out of it."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunjin blinked and said, "This sounds like it could work. Then we'll do as you say. Those guys are trying to get on my good side every day. It's a good time to test them."
She even patted Zhao Dayi's shoulder and said, "Little brother, you're the smartest."
Although Zhao Dayi agreed verbally, he felt a little helpless in his heart.
Although he was already a second year student, he still paid attention to any outstanding talented students. Of course he knew about Yan Wuyue.
But the more he knew, the more he understood how powerful Yan Wuyue and her summoned spirit were. And according to some tips he obtained, Yan Wuyue didn't show her true strength during the freshman tournament.
Additionally, from his sources, he heard that Yan Wuyue had been taken in by a mysterious Research Institute, and the two sides had already signed a contract.
If he offended her now and happened to offend the power behind her, he would probably get into a lot of trouble.
Zhao Dayi was sure that with her strength alone, not to mention the new students, even second year students probably wouldn't dare to say that they could certainly defeat Yan Wuyue.
Just like that, after the siblings 'discussion, Zhao Yunjin got up and left, starting to make arrangements for the plan against Yan Wuyue.
