1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

The international students resigned en masse, and Fu Mingzhuo and Chen Jianghe came to the office to comfort Lu Chen, saying that they could recruit new people if they were no longer employed.

Lu Chen thanked the two for their concern, then took out the paper left by Liu Rui and others and handed it to Fu Mingzhuo. He said:

"Ming Zhuo, go contact a school that teaches flying and send these people over."

Fu Mingzhuo glanced at the name on the paper and said:

"Okay, I'll arrange it later."

Seeing that the two were still here and not discussing things with him, Lu Chen immediately said:

"You two should go and do your own things. I'm really fine."

The two still had no intention of leaving. Lu Chen was a little speechless. He waved his hand and said helplessly:

"Forget it, you guys stay here, I have something else to do, I'm leaving first."

Lu Chen walked out of the office. The two hurriedly followed him. Lu Chen left the office and saw a worker hurriedly looking for Lu Chen in the corridor.

"Boss, Luca called and said someone from the Red Gate is looking for you. The guard asked if you want to let them in."

When Lu Chen heard that someone from the Red Gate was looking for him, he immediately asked:

"How many people are coming from the other side, and who are they?"

"The people over there said that there were only two people from the other side."

Hearing that only two people had come, Lu Chen felt relieved. With only so few people coming, they were definitely not here to cause trouble for him. Lu Chen said to the people who came:

"Go tell the guard to let them in."

After saying that, Lu Chen walked towards the factory gate. He was ready to see who the Red Gate had sent.

Lu Chen didn't have to wait at the door for long before Wu Xuance and a disciple appeared in Lu Chen's sight.

Only Wu Xuance came. It seems that Hongmen is here to make peace with me. Lu Chen thought silently in his heart.

Wu Xuance came to Lu Chen with a kind face and said to him:

"Brother Lu Chen, I'm so sorry. I should have come to see you and explained to you a long time ago. But Mr. Hong asked that I must find out who is behind this before I can come. That's why I'm coming to see you now, Brother Lu Chen."

Lu Chen looked at Wu Xuance and said, "Then Gang Leader Wu came here today, so he must have found out who is behind this."

Wu Xuance smiled and nodded.

Lu Chen immediately smiled and said to Wu Xuance:

"Come on, let's go to the reception room and talk. I want to see who is behind this and instigated someone to kill me."

Lu Chen brought Wu Xuance to the reception room, and then asked Wu Xuance and his disciples to sit down in the reception room. He also asked someone to serve them a cup of tea.

Lu Chen looked at Wu Xuance and asked, "Boss Wu, who is behind this?"

Wu Xuance took a sip of tea and said:

"After some time of investigation, we finally identified a person named He Hongsheng."

Lu Chen was confused. Who is He Hongsheng? Why haven't I heard of him? Lu Chen asked in confusion:

"Who is this He Hongsheng? What grudge does he have against me? Why did he send someone to kill me? And what is his relationship with your Red Gate?"

Wu Xuance explained: "He Hongsheng is not from our Red Gate. He is a Chinese entrepreneur. He is engaged in trade on the surface, but secretly he is engaged in smuggling. He is from the He family of China, which is also a large family in China. And he has a good relationship with the Song family."

Lu Chen was even more confused after hearing this. What the hell is this He family? It has nothing to do with me. Lu Chen continued to ask:

"Why did he want to kill me?"

Wu Xuance shook his head and said regretfully: "We haven't found out about this either."

"What is the relationship between Li Fugui and him? Why are you sure that he was the one who ordered Li Fugui?"

Lu Chen continued to ask.

Wu Xuance said: "Li Fugui is a servant of their family. He has been with He Hongsheng since he was a child and is He Hongsheng's servant."

"Just based on this, you infer that he ordered Li Fugui. Isn't this a bit too arbitrary?"

Lu Chen still didn't quite believe this conclusion. If he sent someone to kill him, he must have a grudge against He Hongsheng, or there must be a huge interest involved. But now he hasn't even met He Hongsheng. There's no business intersection between them. Why would he send someone to kill me? This is totally illogical.

Wu Xuance said helplessly: "We haven't found the reason yet."

Lu Chen then said to Wu Xuance, "You have been investigating for so long. How much have you found out about Li Fugui? Who does he usually interact with? Where does he like to go? Does he owe anyone money or favors?"

Wu Xuance said: "We have found out a lot about Li Fugui's recent affairs."

Lu Chen said quickly: "Tell me quickly."

"Li Fugui joined our Huaqing Gang three years ago. He became a disciple of He Manchao."

Lu Chen interrupted Wu Xuance and said, "Wait a minute, is there any relationship between He Manchao and He Hongsheng?"

Wu Xuance shook his head and said, "No, they have no relationship."

Lu Chen nodded and motioned Wu Xuance to continue.

Wu Xuance continued:

"He is popular in the gang, but his ability is a little lacking, so He Manchao hasn't used him much in the past three years."

When Lu Chen heard the word "three years", he suddenly had some thoughts. This person had joined the Huaqing Gang for three years, so he didn't join in 1928. He also came to the United States in 1928. Lu Chen asked:

"What was he doing three years ago?"

Wu Xuance said: "He was not in the United States before, but was always in Southeast Asia. So I didn't find any information about him here."

Lu Chen nodded. Wu Xuance continued:

"He has the wrong hobbies, he just likes gambling. We also checked the gambling houses he frequented. We found that he didn't gamble much. He only won or lost more than ten yuan each time. We didn't find that he owed anyone any money."

Lu Chen asked, "How often does he go to the casino?"

Wu Xuance said: "He goes there to play about once a week."

Lu Chen looked at Wu Xuance in surprise and asked, "Your disciples earn quite a lot, more than ten yuan a week."

Wu Xuance smiled and said, "It's not that high. Our ordinary disciples only earn three or four yuan a week."

Wu Xuance was obviously stunned after he finished speaking. He also found the problem at this time. Li Fugui's income was a bit too high. This week's income was no less than ten yuan. It was obviously not in line with the income of his ordinary disciples. He said to Lu Chen:

"Thank you, Brother Lu Chen, for your reminder. I will check his source of income when I get back."

Lu Chen was speechless. Wu Xuance and the others hadn't noticed such an obvious suspicious point. Lu Chen didn't know how Wu Xuance was investigating people.

Wu Xuance continued, "Li Fugui usually does hard labor at the docks. We didn't find any major difficulties he encountered in the past three years. Therefore, we didn't find anything unusual about his experience in the Huaqing Gang in the past three years."

Lu Chen nodded, and then said: "Give me a copy of all the information you found, and I will have someone sort it out to see if there is anything unusual."

Wu Xuance said: "Okay, I'll have someone send it to you tomorrow."
