Chapter 847: Hard to handle?
Ling Feng was even more surprised than Li Huai!
Are these Dongying people that fierce? 1.5 billion, just like that?
Ling Feng had already agreed, and Li Huai was somewhat impatient. Just as the waiter brought over the coffee, he paid the bill right away, "Brother, I won’t keep you any longer, let’s talk more tomorrow!"
After he finished speaking, he walked out the door and got directly into a black car waiting outside.
Ling Feng watched the car leave with a speechless expression and then also left the café.
After returning to the hotel, Zhang He sprang up from the sofa, "How did it go?"
"In just this little while, I made 1.5 billion!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
"Holy shit!"
Zhang He was stunned, his jaw nearly hitting the floor.
After Ling Feng explained the conditions Sun Shaofeng and Li Huai offered him, Zhang He’s eyes bulged even more!
"Damn it, these two scumbags, as Huaxia people, they actually offered to work for foreigners!"
Ling Feng glanced at Zhang He, "How are you so sure they are working for foreigners?"
"There’s no need to mention Li Huai, that old guy definitely has issues. It’s very likely that Sun was colluding with foreigners too, why else would he want that stone? Is it for household use?" Zhang He retorted.
"It’s not impossible!"
Ling Feng nodded, "Anyway, he’s already revealed himself, why not just investigate and find out?"
"I’ll report this to the headquarters right now!"
Zhang He said and went into the bedroom, while Ling Feng sat down on the sofa, pondering. After collecting 1.5 billion tomorrow, if they really found that mysterious stone, the expression on the Dongying people’s faces would be priceless!
A few minutes later, Zhang He came out of the bedroom.
Seeing his expression, Ling Feng asked with curiosity, "What happened?"
"It’s complicated!"
Zhang He sat down and looked up at Ling Feng, "Sun’s background is more complex than we imagined. I’m not even clear who he is looking for that stone for now!"
"What did the higher-ups say?" Ling Feng asked.
"They told me to be cautious and not to act against Sun if he gets the stone, and to wait for further instructions," Zhang He said with a wry smile.
Ling Feng was speechless, looking puzzled, "Why?"
"Old Han didn’t say, he seems to have his own difficulties!"
Zhang He smiled helplessly, "Maybe it’s because the Sun Family’s power is too vast? The relationships are too complex; he can’t make a direct decision!"
Ling Feng narrowed his eyes, recalled Sun Shaofeng’s haughty demeanor, and the threat he had made, and then snorted coldly, "No wonder he dared to threaten me so; he was really arrogant with nothing to fear!"
"So you see, it’s troubling!" Zhang He said with a bitter smile.
"Not troubling. I don’t believe it; if we get evidence that he’s colluding with foreigners, won’t anyone be able to protect him?" Ling Feng asked with narrowed eyes.
Zhang He was taken aback, "But how do we get the evidence?"
"Don’t worry about that, I’ll figure something out. Looks like I can’t sleep tonight!" Ling Feng said coldly.
After speaking, he didn’t bother with Zhang He and left the room.
Back in the next room, Feng Ling immediately asked Ling Feng when she saw him, "I heard from your men that you met with two people downstairs just now?"
"That’s right!"
Ling Feng nodded and explained the situation to her and Li Fei’er.
After hearing the story, Li Fei’er immediately became furious, "They actually dared to threaten Ling Corporation? This Sun really doesn’t know how high the sky is!"
"That’s not the main point. The main point is that he came to the hotel to find me, and then he threatened me to my face. I suspect that if we don’t agree tomorrow, this guy will definitely harm us!" Ling Feng said with a laugh.
"This isn’t Huaxia, if he dares to provoke us, let him taste our strength!" Li Fei’er declared.
"Let’s play it by ear tomorrow. You two should rest well tonight, I have some things to take care of!" Ling Feng announced.
Li Fei’er and Feng Ling were both startled and asked in unison, "What are you going to do?"
Ling Feng smiled, "Gather intelligence, ideally to find evidence of Mr. Sun’s collusion with others!"
"Uncle, let me go with you, maybe I can help you out?" Li Fei’er offered.
"No need, I have my own methods. Having you along would actually be inconvenient," Ling Feng said with a smile.
Seeing that he disagreed, Li Fei’er didn’t press the matter further and instead reminded him, "Then be careful, Uncle."
"Sure."
Ling Feng nodded, turned, and left the room.
He went downstairs to the reception where he received a slip of paper from the clerk, which bore the address of Sun Shaofeng’s residence.
This fellow had come to find Ling Feng with great arrogance, claiming he could find anyone he wanted, little knowing that what goes around comes around. If he could do that, so could others.
With the help of the Black Dragon Sect’s influence in Guo City, it was quite easy for him to get the address.
Exiting the hotel, Ling Feng was accompanied by a revered member of the Black Dragon Sect, who was there both to show the way and to act as an interpreter.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the entrance of a hotel.
The building was ten stories high. Ling Feng observed it from across the street corner, while the man from the Black Dragon Sect quickly entered the lobby.
After another ten minutes, the man returned to report, "Mr. Ling, Sun Shaofeng has booked all the rooms on the top floor. He brought nine people with him, and they are all staying at the top floor. They only move in and out together with him."
"He’s quite cautious indeed. It seems the young man is also afraid of being attacked or kidnapped!"
Ling Feng let out a cold laugh, looked up at the brightly lit tenth floor, and noticed that the lights in every room were on.
At that moment, the man from the Black Dragon Sect asked, "Mr. Ling, what’s your plan now?"
"I’m thinking of sneaking into their room, but I suppose their security must be very strict, right?" Ling Feng inquired.
"I’ve just asked, the elevator to the tenth floor is for exclusive use, and there are guards at the elevator entrance!"
"That means the fire escape must be guarded too. Even if I knocked that person out, I’m afraid the others would become alert," Ling Feng pondered aloud.
"Yes, it’s a bit of a problem," the man from the Black Dragon Sect nodded.
Ling Feng glanced at him and said, "You wait here at the bottom. I’ll go up and take a look."
"Do you want me to come with you?" the man asked.
"No need, the more people, the bigger the target," Ling Feng retorted.
Declining his offer, Ling Feng headed towards the hotel on his own.
Before reaching the entrance, his eyes flicked to the side, and he didn’t head for the main entrance but went straight for a side alley!
Once he reached a dark spot, Ling Feng looked up at the towering building over thirty meters high and whispered to himself, "I’ve never scaled a building this high before; not sure if it can be done."
However, despite saying this, he leapt up to a height of ten meters in one go, then with a burst of strength, his ten fingers dug into the hard concrete!
It was his first attempt, and surprisingly, the effect was quite good!
Ling Feng’s lips curved into a slight smile as he thought, now things are looking up; once I get to the rooftop and come down from above, let’s see if they can defend against that!
After a couple of leaps and climbs, he was atop the building.
Directly below him lay Sun Shaofeng’s room, but this was obviously still not enough because he still couldn’t hear any voices inside the room.
