I traveled through time without patched pants, I was the richest man in the Republic of China

Doctor Ding stood in front of the bed, looked at the increasingly thin and unconscious patient, and left with a complicated expression.

He reminded the Kang family behind him that Lu Pingsheng was a man of both character and means. If he dared to seek the skin of a tiger, he must have a backup plan.

Unfortunately, the huge profits from high positions over the years have blinded their eyes. He is 100% sure that the disappearance of the ship was a back-up plan by Lu Pingsheng.

Unfortunately, his words are insignificant and he is just a tool for others to make money. The people above him will not listen to him at all.

Wei Miao left the secret room half an hour after Dr. Ding left. He still felt a little uncomfortable looking at the thin and pale Brother Lu.

She knew that Brother Lu was preparing to wake up. How could a patient who had been bedridden for years be healthy and rosy?

"Worried about your family?" Lu Pingsheng could see her worry.

Wei Miao nodded, "I'm worried that they will become desperate and attack my family."

Lu Pingsheng smiled and comforted her, "Tell me, if the newspaper headlines say that the Kang family and the authorities are colluding with the Japanese, or that the Japanese Aso family and the authorities are in cahoots, are they the ones to worry about?"

Wei Miao thought that it was the Kang family, the then Minister of Finance, who leaked the fact that they were colluding with Japan at this time, or it was evidence that the Aso family and the authorities were colluding to make money.

Not to mention the punishment, the criticism from the people of the country is not a big deal. The only thing I am afraid of is that political opponents will make a fuss about it and accidentally lose the entire family.

"Brother Lu, you are indeed a child of destiny!" Wei Miao praised him generously.

Lu Pingsheng pretended to be proud and cupped his fist, "No, no!"

"Hehehe~"

"Quack quack~"

There was a big commotion outside, but two foxes, one big and one small, were laughing happily here.

The setting sun in the spring evening illuminates the most prosperous pier in the foreign concessions. The different whistles of cruise ships and cargo ships indicate that some ships are leaving and some are docking.

It was still the same private room, but the people inside were different.

The main seat where Lu Pingsheng used to sit was vacant, and there was a thin man in his thirties with thick eyebrows, big eyes, aquiline nose and thin lips. When he didn't speak, he gave people a gloomy feeling.

Bai Meigui was chatting with Durand in a haphazard manner, while Dr. Ding looked down at the teacup in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.

Wei Miao was like everyone else, so I didn't say anything either. I stared at the snacks and fruits on the tea table. I wanted to take a bite but thought I could hold back a bit.

Aso Kazuken took in everyone's expressions, especially pausing for a moment on Wei Miao and Bai Meigui.

A passionate and charming woman and a young child staring at the snacks and swallowing his saliva.

Still a really weird combination.

"Everyone, your time is precious. We all know why we are here together. This morning, when our fleet was still half a day's journey away from Hong Kong Island, the signal suddenly disappeared. What do you think?"

Durand spoke first, obviously anxious and not wanting to waste any more time.

White Rose, who was dazed, sat up straight with one hand supporting her forehead and spoke softly:

"The Green Gang's people in Hong Kong Island have inquired about it. Pirates are rampant in that area. Last winter, most of the ships of Tiger and Lion Shipping were robbed by pirates nearby. I heard that the Hong Kong Governor's Office has not solved the case yet."

Durand was from the navy, so he naturally knew what it meant to lose coordinates and contact in the vast ocean. He muttered in annoyance:

"But we are a fleet equipped with artillery fire. I listened to Luca's suggestion and only took 10% of the dividends this time. The rest will be used to buy new cargo ships and goods..."

Doctor Ding sighed heavily and said in a deep voice:

"Mr. Lu used to take care of all these trivial matters. Last year, Mr. Lu went to Hong Kong Island in advance to handle the delivery of goods, so there was no problem. Now Mr. Lu..."

The other people also looked unhappy, obviously they were dazzled by the huge wealth after the New Year. When Lu Pingsheng mentioned it, they all agreed.

But now the key person is lying on the hospital bed like a disabled person, and they have no idea what Lu Pingsheng has handled.

In the past, everyone felt that they had a powerful force behind them, but they still had to pay the same amount of money to share the shares with an antique dealer. Now it seems...

Wei Miao noticed that everyone was looking at him, so he spread his hands and said:

"The same is true for Mr. Lu."

Aso Kazuken, who had been silent the whole time, glanced at everyone and slowly spoke:

"Before Mr. Lu got into trouble, didn't he have any plans?"

The incident with Lu Pingsheng happened on the second day of the Chinese New Year. At that time, a large number of imported goods had just been sold, the money had been obtained, and they had just been persuaded to continue to invest large sums of money. How could they have predicted the situation two months later.

At least that's the case on the surface. As for the current situation, Lu Pingsheng, who had been planning for a long time, had already thought of it.

He even studied the reactions of these forces thoroughly.

"No matter what, as an executor, Mr. Lu made a mistake in his decision and he needs to pay the price for it."

Kazuken Aso is too lazy to pretend, or he doesn't even bother to pretend.

As soon as he said this, the others had different expressions.

Doctor Ding, in particular, clenched his fists on his knees, as he had received the same order.

He himself could choose not to withdraw, but the Kang family behind him demanded that he must take back the profits and let Lu Pingsheng pay to buy back the shipping shares they had.

"it is good."

Wei Miao agreed very readily.

Lady Aso, who had never looked anyone in the eye, finally looked the boy in the face.

"Mr. Aso, please bring the documents here. I can sign them now." Wei Miao had a smile on his face and was respectful and polite.

Brother Lu talked about the Aso family background. They made their fortune in their homeland by selling female slaves to the West.

After three generations of wealth accumulation, they became a large local family and took advantage of this reform to enter politics.

The uncle of the man in front of him, Kazuken Aso, is the vice-prime minister of the cabinet. Because of the slave trade, the Aso family has a lot of say at sea, so they are quite influential in the rapidly developing navy.

"Instead of being evasive, it's better to be open and honest. Maybe you'll get something unexpected."

These are Lu Pingsheng’s original words.

Wei Miao is indeed very strong in learning ability, but when it comes to worldly wisdom, she is not even one-tenth as good as Lu Pingsheng.

According to her idea, it would be better if all these profit-seeking guys were killed. How could they vomit out the gold they had eaten?

Do you want to spit in his face?

"If anyone else has this idea, please bring the contract you signed at the time. I agree with it."

Bai Meigui's face was tense for the first time, and she reminded her quietly:

"Ah Miao, now is not the time to fight."

Wei Miao looked at her with a smile, "Miss Bai, if you want to withdraw, we will also pay the compensation."

Durand's blue eyes moved rapidly, and he was calculating in his mind. With such a huge amount of shares, plus the goods and money this time, even if Lu Ping sold all his assets, he would not be able to pay off the family.

If Wei Miao knew what he was thinking, he would definitely praise him for being able to settle accounts.

Brother Lu doesn't have enough money, but she does. All the gold coins she found in Hong Kong Island can be used as money if she sells them.

She and Brother Lu had agreed that she would own 90% of the fleet by then.

Brother Lu agreed very readily.

So Wei Miao now looked at everyone expectantly, hoping that they would agree quickly.

"Mr. Durand, you are Mr. Lu's good brother. If you are willing, you can do it."

"Doctor Ding, if the person behind you has any instructions, just let me know. I can represent Brother Lu."

"Mr. Aso, Mr. Lu has always been a good friend of the Empire. We will be the first to pay you."
