Power of Money -
Chapter 540
In Linton City.
It was an earth-level city less than four hundred kilometers away from the Nandu with a population of more than one million.
The whole city was built on the Long River in the sea. The mountains and rivers were beautiful, the resources were rich, and the tourism was the major economic source of the whole city.
This was also the national tourism city built by the Shen Family's Real Estate Department.
Here, Shen Family had a lot of projects and staff.
Once upon a time, it was called the back garden of the Shen Family by many people.
In Park Park by the Southern Wetland Park, Linton City.
It was a two- story boat made of bamboo.
Jason looked at the elder who was leisurely tasting the tea in front of him with a calm face. He slowly played with a string of sandalwood bracelets with his fingers.
"I have already announced that I will withdraw from the Shen clan forever at the golden basin washing up twenty years ago. I will no longer interfere in any matters related to the Shen clan. I'm afraid that even if you come and find me at this moment, I am afraid that I will only be unable to help you. I have allowed you to make a trip in vain..."
After a long time, the old man put down the teacup in his hand and looked up at Jason.
Lawrence!
Jason's uncle, who was also regarded as one of the Three Tigers of the Shen Family by the world, was extremely fierce. He swept away all the obstacles for David in the early period of his business on his own but when Shen's Group went public and got on the right track, he announced retirement. In this huge back garden, he took care of his old age and fish. Jason knew that the reason why Lawrence fled in a hurry was that his reputation in the group and his family had greatly overshadowed his father David.
But Lawrence's hands were stained with blood.
There was not only the enemy's blood, but also the ghost of his own people.
He was like his father's shadow, moving day and night with his father to solve all those unfavorable things for him and for the Shen family.
If he continued to stay in Shen's company, he was bound to summon Shen's company. Therefore, twenty years ago, when Lawrence solved his father's biggest rival at that time and stabilized his position as the head of the group in Celestial Empire's pharmaceutical world, he immediately announced the separation with David due to inequality in the distribution of positions, retired into the mountains, and lived in seclusion in this unknown small city.
However, the reason why Jason came to him at this critical moment was not to let him come out again, but to help Shen's Group get through this difficulty, but because...
"Granduncle, you're too modest. I just came to visit you with father's greetings. Father said that you haven't seen each other for nearly 20 years. He missed you very much because he was busy with the family's matters and had no time to visit you, so he asked me to send his regards to you..." Jason said with a smile.
"Yeah, it's been more than 20 years since we last saw each other..."
Lawrence sighed slightly, with some hope in his turbid eyes.
"On that day, when I could only marry your father, your father was still a poor boy at the dock. To be honest, I didn't think much of him at that time. Although our the Chans didn't have any current achievements, we were a rich family in the Nandu after all. We didn't have to worry about eating and drinking. Your grandparents were well-educated and they made a promise to your mother to the children of a bureaucratic family. But they didn't expect that your father noflro TOBKed them halfway. Your grandmother was so angry that she almost lost her breath that she almost died that night..."
Hearing this, Jason smiled, "I heard that at that time, my uncle-in-law was kicked out by his great-grandfather because he didn't study well. He also said that he would never recognize you in his life..."
"I didn't expect you to know that." Lawrence shook his head and said with emotion, "At that time, I also heard a lot about chivalry and justice in the hall. I always thought about practicing martial arts, exterminating gangsterliness and helping people. I didn't expect that I would be a person who was about to be killed and almost died at the dock. Fortunately, your granduncle was blessed and followed a good brother, so he could live up to now..."
Hearing this, Jason was moved. Although Lawrence did not directly say who the big man was, Jason had heard of it in his family. It was said that Lawrence and his elder brother were not murdered. Now, there was nothing to do with the Dragon Society...
"However, if my uncle hadn't been driven out by the Chans at that time, you wouldn't have made a good impression on my father and helped him to overcome difficulties again and again before establishing the later Shen's Group," Jason said.
"Bullsh*t! I have a bad feeling for your father. I just worked hard at the dock. I want money, no money, and no ability. I don't want to see my niece suffer with your father, so I want to help them again and again. Because of this matter, I almost got rid of the mother-and-son relationship with your grandmother. Fortunately, your father can earn some money. Otherwise, no matter how much your mother likes your father, will break his legs and throw him into the sea, completely destroying your mother's thoughts!"
Although Lawrence said so, Jason could still tell from his words that he appreciated and favored David.
At the same time, he sighed with emotion. "At that time, it was not me, the granduncle, who gave up the opportunity to follow the big brother to make a name for himself, but wanted to help my father conquer the Shen's Group. No matter how capable my father was, it was impossible for him to have such achievements today."
One's life depended on luck, strength, and 60 percent on the help of a helpful person. It seemed that it was not a boast.
"But my father said that Shen's Group will always have your position. Since you left, he has been extremely lonely for twenty years. When it's quiet at night, there is not even a person who can talk..." Jason sighed.
"I believe in your dad's words, but the group will always have my position. You must not mention it in front of outsiders in the future. It's best not to say it again. Even if you say it, I won't believe it." Lawrence looked at Jason and said angrily.
"Why not?"
Jason almost blurted out, but soon, he regretted it.
As the saying went, "Birds are hidden, and a crafty rabbit is cooked by a dog."
A king would never allow his ministers to live a life worse than him.
With Lawrence's prestige in Shen's Group, even if he could handle the group with his father in harmony and friendly manner when he went back, it was inevitable that some malicious people under him would make a fuss about it and secretly provoke a dispute. They would try to make the two people turn against each other and break down Shen's Group from the inside.
"I was thinking too much." After Jason figured it out, he smiled at Lawrence.
"Well, don't hide it. Just tell me what you have to say. Did you find me especially because my disappointing son caused trouble? Otherwise, in Shen's company, what else can't be settled by you and your father?" Lawrence looked at Jason and said angrily.
Jason sighed to himself.
"What has to come will always come, and we can't hide from it."
But before Jason could say anything, a servant who was rowing the boat came in and said respectfully to Lawrence, "Master, that man is coming."
"Mm, where are we now?" Lawrence asked without even looking up.
"According to your instructions, we have already prepared a boat for him. He is now at the stern of our ship. I want to ask if it is convenient for you to meet now." The servant said. Lawrence pondered for a moment and nodded, "Let him drive the boat over. I'm going to meet him now."
"Okay." The maid nodded and left.
"Jason, my uncle-in-law has an important guest to meet. If you're hungry and drink tea here for a while, the table will be a little worried. I'll be back soon." Lawrence said to Jason. "Yes. Granduncle is busy, so I'm not in a hurry." Jason said with a smile.
Lawrence nodded, stood up, and smoothened the cloth he was wearing. He didn't turn around and lift the curtain to leave until everything was in order.
Jason looked at his back in confusion. He had heard that Lawrence had retired from the world after retiring from his life. He had almost never seen any guests. Today, there was a big man that he had treated with such courtesy. What kind of great man was he?
While Jason was thinking, Lawrence had already strode to the bow of the boat. At this moment, a metallic black shelter boat was floating next to the boat. The two ships stuck together, and the boatman was standing on the bow, while a middle-aged man in a black short coat was standing beside the boatman.
With a resolute face, a powerful body, and a pair of eyes, like a bald eagle, were emitting a vicious light.
Lawrence stepped forward and stepped onto the boat next to them with the help of servants. At the same time, he reached out his hand with a smile and said to the middle-aged man, "My distinguished guest came from afar, but I didn't welcome you from afar.
I hope you don't mind."
The middle-aged man squeezed out a smile on his fierce face, stretched out his hand to hold Lawrence's palm, and said with a low smile, "Master Chan, you're welcome. I'm Samar!"
