Chapter 500: Chapter 500

"Evidence? With their terrifying methods, are you worried they won't find any evidence? You think too little of the people in Huadu!"

Pang Shide gave a wry smile and said, "When they found me, they directly showed me a piece of surveillance footage, and it was clearly the video of me meeting with you and briefing you on the details of this matter!"

"Impossible! There was definitely no surveillance where we met, I've checked it long ago!" At this point, Guo Lanxiang was somewhat hysterical, speaking without any restraint.

However, she was beyond caring about that now. She knew she absolutely couldn't admit defeat; she didn't want to end up behind bars again.

"Heh, too bad as soon as Pang Shide accepted the task, my people noticed him, followed him, and captured the video evidence of you meeting."

Xu Hao clapped his hands, and one of the men in suits immediately took out a cell phone and a portable projector, and started to show the video of Pang Shide meeting with Guo Lanxiang and others.

Seeing the clear footage, even with sound, Guo Lanxiang collapsed on the ground, weakly saying, "I... I've lost. How did you know we were out to get your restaurant and even secretly recorded our meeting?"

Xu Hao smiled and said nothing.

Pang Shide sighed, "Ah, we small fry really shouldn't get involved in the disputes of big families and powers. Now here we are, not a penny richer and about to be behind bars again."

At this point, the whole truth was out, and everyone looked down on them immensely. For some money, they committed such unconscionable acts, worse than animals!

At the same time, everyone felt a chill down their spine thinking about how much information Xu Hao had at his disposal.

Pang Shide and the others were just ordinary people. Even though they had dealings with the Wei family's adversaries, it ought to have been done in secret. The Wei family would definitely have been closely watching their enemies.

But even the Wei family didn't get the news!

Yet Xu Hao had first-hand information and, when these people were plotting harm, he struck instantly. With corroborating evidence, he completely shattered their schemes!

The monstrosity of Xu Hao's intelligence network was terrifying!

The security personnel were somewhat helpless at this point, they barely did anything, and the case was already solved.

Everyone understood that the main manipulator behind the scenes had not been found.

But, should they really keep searching?

The security personnel looked towards Xu Hao, knowing that if they meddled in family feuds, it would only make things more complicated.

Xu Hao waved his hand and said, "Just take them away, wrap this matter up, and leave the rest to us."

The two of them were like pardoned convicts. They were afraid Xu Hao would ask them to continue the investigation, but that would inevitably lead to nothing. Would any force daring to oppose the Wei family be foolish? First seen on *.

Xu Hao patted Wei Laosan's shoulder, then he, Anna, and the other two entered a private room.

Wei Laosan quickly bowed and said, "Young Master Xu, I really owe you one this time. Otherwise, our Wei Family Restaurant would have suffered unimaginable losses!"

"No need for pleasantries. If your Wei family is willing to fully align with me, these little things will always be dealt with this quickly."

With the information system provided by his biological father, what information couldn't Xu Hao find out? It was just that sometimes he couldn't get some information because he didn't have enough authority due to his insufficient power.

This time the people, video materials, including the information about Wang Qing, were all sent over by Wang Zhong. Now that the Wei family was in a semi-affiliated state, Xu Hao wanted them to fully align with him. Of course, he had to help them and let them see his strength and energy.

Subduing a person, let alone a major power, couldn't solely rely on force. Terror might subdue them, but it wouldn't be sincere, and loyalty would definitely be lacking. It needed to be a mix of the carrot and the stick approach.

Wei Laosan smiled and said, "Young Master Xu, to be honest, I am very eager to pledge allegiance to you. Given your capabilities, our Wei family would surely flourish. But like other families, our Wei family is not ruled by just one person's word. Although many agree to align with you now, it will take some time to be completely loyal."

"I understand, but you must also understand that my patience has its limits. If you do not align by this year's end, I might have to use force, because by then, I plan to unify all of Huadu's powers!"

Hearing Xu Hao's words, Wei Laosan was completely stunned!

He had a vague idea of Xu Hao's intentions to expand in Huadu and possibly to bring some of Huadu's powers under his wing—it was inevitable.

But he never imagined that Xu Hao had plans to unite the entire Huadu's power before the New Year!

It was September now, and the New Year was at the end of January. At most, there were less than five months left.
