Chapter 789: Chapter 789
Han Shiguang's wife, surnamed Li, is a Chinese from Xingzhou.
Xingzhou is an immensely wealthy island nation, ranked first in the world for its urban infrastructure, with its per capita GDP also topping global charts.
There are two Li families in Xingzhou, known as the Southern Li and the Northern Li.
Both Xingzhou Li families are massive, formidable entities.
Han Shiguang's wife is one of the legitimate daughters of the Northern Li family in Xingzhou.
A hundred million US dollars is but a trifle for her family.
After hearing Han Shiguang say this, Su Fan did not insist further.
His current net worth made him a top player in Yang City, but it wasn't much in the grand scheme of Huaxia.
He couldn't compare to an investment magnate like Han Shiguang.
But in his heart, Su Fan took note of Han Shiguang's kindness, a favor he was sure to repay in the future.
Those two hundred million US dollars from Palsuney Castle wouldn't be easy to secure.
One day, he vowed to make Palsuney Castle repay a hundredfold, even a thousandfold!
Now he was taking away two hundred million, but in the future, he would retrieve twenty billion, or even two hundred billion!
While Su Fan was conversing with Han Shiguang, Han Xinying also drank the prescription that Su Fan had prepared for her.
After Su Fan's treatment and drinking his prescription, she had recovered a great deal.
This made Miss Han very happy, and she was immensely grateful to Su Fan.
If it weren't for Su Fan's treatment, she might have died after some time.
Clearly, Su Fan had saved her life.
That night, Su Fan stayed over at Han Shiguang's villa.
In the still of the night, he stood by the window, gazing out at the sea.
His eyes fixed on the direction of northeast across the sea, roughly where Palsuney Castle was located.
Han Shiguang was also awake.
At this moment, he was in his study, negotiating with Brenton.
Brenton, aware of Han Shiguang's wealth, aimed to extract more funds from him.
But Han Shiguang, clearly an old hand in the business world, was much more than a match for a half-baked businessman like Brenton at the negotiating table.
Tianhai City is an international metropolis.
There are three types of people who can thrive here: those with power, wealth, and capability!
If you lack power, wealth, and are not one of the capable elites, you can only fritter away your time in Tianhai City.
In a hotel room in Tianhai City, Liu Chuanxiong was smoking.
In front of him, the ashtray was filled with numerous cigarette butts.
Opposite Liu Chuanxiong, several others were researching information.
They were sorting through the data of Tianhai's wealthy, preparing to make a big score.
Kidnapping the rich and extorting ransom seems to have become a thing of the past.
The last person to pull off such a feat was the notorious Zhang Shihao, who kidnapped Li Chao-ren's son.
However, that was the story made public; many similar incidents continue to occur, just not to everyone's knowledge.
Liu Chuanxiong is a Qi-Transforming Martial Artist, and theoretically, a Qi-Transforming Martial Artist wouldn't be short on money,
But Liu Chuanxiong's situation is very peculiar; he has over twenty women and a hundred or so brothers to support, and he is also very extravagant with his own spending.
This forces him to take risks and get involved in major transactions.
A Qi-Transforming Martial Artist looking to make money generally has two options: serve as a bodyguard for the rich or become a hitman on the dark web.
However, being a hitman is risky and not very lucrative.
Take the example of Lin Tianhua, an international hitman who was originally preparing to enter Huaxia to assassinate Su Fan; not long after he accepted the job, Palsuney Castle revoked the bounty on Su Fan.
Liu Chuanxiong had been engaging in the no-capital business of kidnapping for ransom, initially targeting the wealthy in Dongying, North America, England, France, and Germany.
However, after pulling off three or four of these no-capital deals, the rich from these regions became more vigilant.
