Chapter 508: Chapter 508
Li Zhen learned that Lin Fan was the one who wiped out the Mountain Chicken Gang, and his attitude towards Lin Fan changed drastically, becoming very respectful, as he invited Lin Fan to his office for a talk.
Lin Fan asked directly: "Brother Zhen, you called us here, is there something you want to say?"
Li Zhen said: "May I know your names?"
Lin Fan said: "I'm Lin Fan, and she's Anna."
Li Zhen suddenly thought of something, could it be… could he be Mr. Lin? Lin Fan, the richest man in Yun City?
With a market value of 200 billion, Mortal Group's Mr. Lin, the richest man in Yun City, is indeed named Lin Fan!
No, Mr. Lin is the richest man, but the Lin Fan in front of him is wearing street market clothes, nothing like a rich person!
This Lin Fan definitely isn't that Lin Fan, the richest man in Yun City; it's just a coincidental name!
Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't believe that the richest man in Yun City would come here, people so wealthy wouldn't be so easily seen.
Rumor has it that Lin Fan, the richest man in Yun City, inherited the wealth of the mysterious tycoon Mr. Lin, whose real name is Lin Beixuan, with a mysterious background, but with extraordinary means.
This kind of mystery and power has made many people have a sense of awe towards Mr. Lin.
And Lin Fan, compared to Lin Beixuan, is no less powerful, rising to become the richest man in Yun City in a short time, considered a miracle.
The legends about Lin Fan have already spread throughout this city.
Even someone like Li Zhen, a big figure in the underground, wouldn't easily provoke Lin Fan.
So, when Li Zhen thought the Lin Fan in front of him wasn't the richest man, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it would be a big trouble if he provoked that Lin Fan.
"So it's Mr. Lin, Miss An, your skills are really impressive, I am very admiring," Li Zhen said with a smile.
Anna coldly said: "Just say what you have to, no need to flatter us, we are in a hurry."
Now, what Anna wanted most was to follow Lin Fan back to Yunding Manor, a place she missed after not seeing it for months.
Li Zhen smiled awkwardly and said: "Alright, I'll be direct, because Mr. Lin said he wanted to attend the underground meeting in three days, I want to ask you, do you know what this meeting means?"
Lin Fan responded, saying: "What does it mean?"
Li Zhen said: "Mr. Lin doesn't know what this meeting is, yet wants to attend, I don't think it's just a whim to see the excitement?"
Lin Fan smiled and said: "I am indeed curious, but seeing Brother Zhen , this meeting seems quite significant?"
Li Zhen said: "Mr. Lin, do you know Jiangnan Wei Family?"
Lin Fan said: "Yes, Jiangnan Wei Family, with a 350 billion Wangu Group, is the richest in Jiangnan, what does this have to do with the Wei Family?"
Li Zhen said: "There are rumors that the Patriarch of Jiangnan Wei Family, Wei Tiansheng, plans to build a skyscraper in Yun City, following Hang City, Yun City will become the second center for Wei Family, Wei Family is coming to Yun City to play monopoly."
Lin Fan frowned: "Monopoly?"
Li Zhen nodded: "The Wei Family has a voracious appetite. Originally, they started in real estate, when Wei Tiansheng established Wangu Group, rose quickly by hoarding land, becoming a real estate giant in Jiangnan. But Wei Family wasn't satisfied and started expanding into various industries, like media, technology, entertainment, etc., trying to build a business empire and monopolize the markets in the involved industries. This time, their eyes are on Yun City, wanting to make a trial."
Lin Fan said: "What kind of trial?"
Li Zhen said: "I'm not entirely sure, but it's said to be related to community group-buying, through a shopping platform, establishing group-buying by community unit, allowing residents to buy daily supplies, like vegetables and fruits, at very low prices. Wei Family plans to use Yun City as a test point."
Lin Fan responded: "I understand, if Wei Family really wants to push community group-buying, everyone will flock to their platform to buy groceries because for the customer there's no reason not to buy cheaply, then some vendors reliant on selling vegetables will lose their livelihoods, through a low-price strategy, Wei Family can achieve monopoly. Once the market has no vegetable vendors, everyone has to rely on their platform, then they can raise prices, earning back the costs from previous low prices." Read full story at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦·𝘯𝘦𝘵
Li Zhen said: "Exactly, Wei Family doing this is leaving no way for some vendors to live, and the first to bear the brunt is Yun City."
Lin Fan chuckled: "Although Wei Tiansheng's actions are indeed unscrupulous, what does this have to do with Brother Zhen? Brother Zhen is a tycoon, this won't affect you."
Li Zhen said solemnly: "For Wei Family to realize their plan, they need to clear both overt and covert paths, initially they want to monopolize the underground, they aim to unify Yun City's underground!"
Lin Fan frowned, he knew the Mountain Chicken Gang was a power Wei Family raised in Yun City, but didn't expect Wei Family's appetite to be so large as to want to consume the entire underground of Yun City.
Underground forces are closely related to the community, many underground sects, big and small, in Yun City are divided by neighborhood.
If Wei Family can unify Yun City's underground, it will be much easier for them to carry out community group-buying.
In Wei Family's view, Yun City is simply a testing field, and the impact of their plan on Yun City is surely not within their consideration.
Li Zhen gritted his teeth: "I won't allow Wei Family to unify Yun City's underground, this time Mountain Chicken, under Wei Family's command, held this underground meeting to stir trouble. Initially, I refused to attend because I didn't want their plan to succeed, even if all underground forces in Yun City bowed to Mountain Chicken, I, Li Zhen, would never bow!"
He said this with great righteousness and passion.
Lin Fan smiled and said: "I actually think unifying the underground is quite good, now there are many sects, no one yields to another, often causing trouble over territory disputes, and the quality of the thugs is generally low, with rampant behavior, such as bullying the weak on the streets. If the underground can be unified and establish rules to restrain these thugs, it would not be a bad thing."
Speaking of bullying the weak on the streets, it wasn't hard to think of the actions of Li Zhen's men.
Li Zhen also heard Lin Fan teasing him, his face turned red, and said: "What Mr. Lin says is not unreasonable, but if the underground of Yun City is really to be unified, it must be by a chosen one, otherwise it's impossible to convince the crowd. If the Mountain Chicken Gang unifies the underground, what Mr. Lin described will occur even more frequently, and once it becomes known, a crackdown will be inevitable, leading to total ruin. Speaking of this, it's necessary to mention Master Kun."
Lin Fan said: "Who is Master Kun?"
