Chapter 666: Chapter 666

Jing Yuanfan continued, "However, a company called Yuanfang Technology Company went head-to-head with us, and when the price soared to two billion Mi Coins, I had no choice but to seek help from Chairman Xu. Do you know what Chairman Xu told me?"

Richard immediately shook his head, where would he have any idea what Xu Hao had said?

Jing Yuanfan smiled and said, "At that time, Chairman Xu said something that has shocked me to this day — no matter the cost, we must acquire it if it's valuable! So, in the end, we forced the other side to back down, spending thirty billion Mi Coins to purchase DUB Company."

As he spoke, Jing Yuanfan even took out the laptop he carried with him, showing Richard the purchase agreement.

As a computer enthusiast, he naturally kept his computer close at all times, carrying a laptop with him wherever he went was essential.

At this point, Richard finally believed that Xu Hao had indeed spent thirty billion Mi Coins to buy DUB Company!

How wealthy that must be!

However, before Richard could recover from his shock, Jing Yuanfan went on to say, "Actually, it's not just that, Chairman Xu also once bought a Nine Star Chain Ring worth fifty billion Huaya Currency at a Didixiya auction! Working for such a financially powerful chairman, you have nothing to worry about in terms of research funding."

Richard was completely stunned.

He had never imagined that Xu Hao could be so wealthy, it was simply inconceivable!

He looked at Xu Hao, observed Jing Yuanfan's firm expression, and suddenly felt that perhaps joining Xu Hao's group wouldn't be such a bad idea?

After pondering for a moment, Richard said with conviction, "Chairman Xu, I have made my decision. From today onwards, I am an employee of your group!"

Xu Hao immediately laughed, "Then I also declare that from today onwards, Richard will be the Chief Consultant of the Internet subsidiary of the Xu Liu Group!"

Richard hastily asked, "Perhaps my thoughts are a bit selfish, but I still want to ask Chairman Xu if my family can be properly settled?"

"Of course, they can! Your family will certainly enjoy our protection as well, because our group's headquarters in Hua Du is under construction, which includes employee dormitories, and there are accommodations for special employees and their families," Xu Hao said.

"If that's the case, then I can truly rest assured!" Richard finally let go of his worries, knowing someone of Xu Hao's stature wouldn't stoop to lying to him about such a matter. Thiscontentishostedat*.

Xu Hao nodded slightly, very satisfied with finally having recruited Richard into his ranks.

Originally, it was just a simple act of rescue, but he hadn't expected such a tremendous gain.

A Professor Richard was worth dozens of ordinary Ph.Ds!

After all the details were settled, Xu Hao opened the door and left with Anna.

But Jing Yuanfan and Professor Richard went to the group together, conversing like old friends reuniting after many years, discussing the internet all the way.

That day, Zhou Changcun, who had been bedridden for a long time, stood up.

That day also officially announced that all the efforts of Zhou Jiandong, the second son of the Zhou Family, had gone up in smoke.

After Zhou Changcun completely recovered from his illness, he was like a changed person, shifting from his previously amiable and gentle manner to someone with extremely tough methods.

He immediately announced that Zhou Jiandong was under house arrest in a small courtyard of the Zhou Family for "suspected of murder of Zhou Family members and malfeasance.

This news shocked everyone in the upper echelons of Hua Du Society.

No one expected the ordinarily weak and easily bullied Zhou Family Eldest, Zhou Changcun, to become so assertive now.

Zhou Jiandong being under house arrest was more distressing for him than death.

As a strategist, having his ability to receive external information directly severed, how could Zhou Jiandong possibly endure it?

Moreover, having operated within the Zhou Family for so many years, did Zhou Jiandong not have any loyal confidants?

As expected, just the next day, news leaked from the Zhou Family that Zhou Jiandong had mysteriously disappeared from the small courtyard, and even the Maid who took care of him was gone.

Subsequently, a bounty was issued by the Zhou Family: Zhou Jiandong fled out of fear of his crimes, also murdered three Maids of the Zhou Family, his sins are heinous. Anyone who provides information about him will receive a reward of one hundred thousand Huaya Currency from the Zhou Family. If Zhou Jiandong is captured, dead, the reward is five million Huaya Currency, alive, ten million Huaya Currency!

Everyone knew that Zhou Changcun, the Zhou Family Eldest, was dead serious.

The price of five million was enough to tempt the vast majority of people, it might even draw Assassins to act against him.

Zhou Changcun's move placed Zhou Jiandong in extreme danger.

But this also confirmed that Zhou Jiandong was indeed the one who orchestrated the car accident that attempted to murder Zhou Changcun!

Those in the know couldn't help lamenting Zhou Jiandong's ruthlessness; Zhou Changcun was his own brother, yet he was capable of such a deed!

And on the third day, another announcement from Zhou Changcun shocked everyone even more!
