Chapter 249: Negotiating with the Family Su
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Several female students with some connection to Zhao Yu, along with their families, were all brought to the Su residence.
“Where is Zhao Yu?”
The butler of the Su family asked calmly; he was skilled at interrogating people.
“We really have no idea!” Liu Si Yu broke down in tears. She had never thought that Zhao Yu could get himself into such big trouble and even affecting her own family.
She kept explaining, trying to convince them that she really didn’t know where Zhao Yu was.
“If you message Zhao Yu and there is no response within an hour, each of your families will lose one person…” The butler ignored her pleas and coldly looked at the girls present.
It’s so unfair; we’re just cla.s.smates with Zhao Yu…” Xia Lan was the most distraught. She was just Liu Si Yu’s roommate, how did she get involved in all this?
If they were really Zhao Yu’s girlfriends, being threatened like this would make sense. But their relations.h.i.+p with Zhao Yu wasn’t at that level.
Unfortunately, no matter what they said, the butler remained unmoved. He simply took out a clock and placed in front of everyone.
Tick-tock! Tick-tock!
The clock was ticking methodically.
They finally understood that pleading was useless. Their only way out was to get a response from Zhao Yu.
For a moment, everyone picked up their phones and frantically began messaging Zhao Yu.
Bing City.
Zhao Yu was at a his secret location, looking at the messages sent by Liu Si Yu and others. He understood that the Huang family had not dared to keep the factory a secret and had involved the Su family, which was exactly what he wanted.
Zhao Yu has his first goal achieved.
Zhao Yu had carefully thought this through. If he hid the gun factory and worked secretly.
If he worked alone, it will be time-consuming, and he would also not be able to sell on a large scale.
He needed time the most right now. He had not forgotten that his initial purpose for using the “clone system” was to seek more opportunities and possibilities.
The Milky Way Empire was too powerful. Even the system he had always relied on was now limited by the One Galactic Heart Fragment.
Zhao Yu thought about having multiple preparations. Besides setting up resistance forces on the edge of the galaxy with Colonel Chu, he should also maximize the use of his clones.
This was to prepare for the possibility of his death and to control as many civilizations as possible through his clones for future use.
Therefore, completing the original owner’s unfulfilled wish as quickly as possible and moving on to the next clone journey was the most important thing at the moment.
Zhao Yu had made such a complex plan, partly to establish a foundation and accelerate the rise of his power, but on the other hand, it was specifically prepared for Liu Si Yu.
He wanted to seize the opportunity to win over Liu Si Yu and complete the original owner’s unfulfilled wish.
This would enable him to resonate with his consciousness on Earth. At that time, with the help of Uncle Da’s computing power, it would become much easier for him to expand further on Neptune.
After checking the time, Zhao Yu felt it was about right. He slowly picked up his phone and dialed Liu Si Yu’s number.
“It is a call from Zhao Yu, he is calling me!”
Liu Si Yu, overcome with emotion, lifted her cell phone and announced loudly.
Butler Su perked up, instructed Liu Si Yu, “Turn on the speaker, everyone stays quiet…”
Following his instructions, Liu Si Yu pressed the answer b.u.t.ton.
“Zhao Yu, where are you? Come quickly…”
As soon as the call connected, Liu Si Yu yelled out, as if trying to release all the fear she had felt.
Zhao Yu briefly comforted her and then asked, “Are you at the Su’s residence now? Are there any members of the Su family around?”
Liu Si Yu instinctively looked towards the Butler Su.
He was not expecting Zhao Yu to look for him, he took the phone from Liu Si
Yu. “This is Butler Su, I can speak on behalf of the Su family…”
With a gesture, he instructed everyone else to leave.
Liu Si Yu and the others breathed a sigh of relief, hoping Zhao Yu would quickly come to in terms with the Su family.
On the other side, Zhao Yu through Xiao Liu’s surveillance, noticed the situation where Liu Si Yu was moved. “Where have you taken her?”
Mr. Su recalled Zhao Yu’s background, with his concern for Liu Si Yu, he felt pleased.
He commanded, “Liu Si Yu, stay here.”
Through the monitor, Zhao Yu saw Liu Si Yu was returning to the phone and continued, “Tell me, why have you been so eagerly looking for me? What do you want?”
“Zhao Yu, 1 want to ask you some questions, okay?”
“Speak!” Zhao Yu replied calmly, already guessing the topic.
“Did you personally construct the handgun production line in the factory?” Although he had confirmed this with other workers, he still wanted to hear Zhao Yu admit it himself.
Liu Si Yu was shocked to heard to truth. Handgun production line?
Zhao Yu’s factory produces weapon?
Could a simple factory manufacture such weapons?
This was a serious crime!
“Yes, it was all my works.” Zhao Yu admitted directly.
“Did you get the blueprints from somewhere, or did you research them yourself?” Butler Su asked Zhao Yu.
“Do you think it’s possible to obtain a blueprint of a design that has never been on the market?” Zhao Yu laughed and answered him.
“Given enough time, can you set up a production line for automatic rifles?”
“Heh,” Zhao Yu smirked, “My original design was aiming for automatic rifles.
But due to limitations in materials and technology, I settled for handguns first…”
This answer satisfied Butler Su so he proposed, “On behalf of the Su family, I’d like to invite you to be our chief researcher…”
“That is so tempting and the offer from Family Su must be great. Hahahaha,
BUT.. 1 REFUSE!!!”
Zhao Yu cut him off.
“Do you understand the consequences of refusing the Su family?” Butler Su warned Zhao Yu at the same time glancing at Liu Si Yu.
“The woman you love, Liu Si Yu, is here. If you decline, she won’t see the sunrise tomorrow…”
As expected, there was silence from the other end.
Butler Su didn’t press further but gave Zhao Yu time to think.
Liu Si Yu was restless, knowing her life and her family’s fate rested in Zhao Yu’s hands.
“I’m an orphan. With my capabilities, I can leave Bing City and be successful anywhere…”
His tone s.h.i.+fted, and with a bitter smile, he continued.
“I didn’t leave Bing City, and the reason I’m still willing to talk is indeed because of Liu Si Yu…”
Liu Si Yu was quite shocked.
Although she didn’t understand the significance of the firearm issue, she could tell that Su family’s viewed Zhao Yu as a important figure.
“Being the chief researcher for the Su family is indeed a good offer, but it’s not to my goal…”
Butler Su realized that Zhao Yu wanted to negotiate terms with the Su family. This made him slightly relieved.
His only concern was if they couldn’t reach an agreement, and Zhao Yu escaped. By then, whether to kill Liu Si Yu would not matter.
Su family would never miss this golden opportunity and might cultivate a ruthless and powerful enemy.
According to experts’ a.n.a.lysis of Zhao Yu’s personality, once he gives up his love for a woman, he can become a ruthless powerhouse.
Unfortunately, women seemed to be his weak spot; otherwise, they wouldn’t even have this phone conversation!
The Butler Su felt a bit pleased, at least Zhao Yu had a vulnerability. He grinned and said, “Tell me your terms, Zhao Yu!”
“I have a dream! That one day…”
Zhao Yu declared with some drama. “Whenever 1 hear others mention the Su or
Huang families with reverence, I feel envious…”
“I want to establish the Zhao family, which will someday be looked up to and revered by everyone!”
“Quite ambitious!”
The Butler Su began to contemplate.
“Alright, we can allocate a territory in Bing City for you, invest in building your factory, and help you set up the Zhao family…”
Following that, Zhao Yu discussed the specifics of establis.h.i.+ng the factory and consolidating power with Butler Su.
Both sides made concessions. The Su family would fund the initial investments, including the construction of the factory and estate. They would also provide protection for Zhao Yu’s a.s.sets.
All weapon-related products would have to be handled by the Su family.
Given that these weapons can’t be openly sold and that Zhao Yu’s channels would not be as efficient as the Su family’s, he readily agreed.
The Su family offered to buy at eighty percent of the market rate.
Furthermore, Zhao Yu also promised to develop a production line for rifles within a month.
As their discussion progressed, Liu Si Yu felt more relieved, even somewhat hopeful.
If Zhao Yu could indeed establish such a trade, wouldn’t she be on her way to becoming a wealthy wife?
More importantly, from their conversation, she learned about some exemptions granted to Bing City by the lord of Tian Hai.
Some of these exemptions were given to Zhao Yu by the Su family.
With these exemptions, as long as Zhao Yu remained stable, her family would live comfortably.
At this moment, she felt that perhaps being with Zhao Yu might not be a bad thing after all.
Liu Si Yu envisioned her future life, and a smile unconsciously crept on her face.
However, a requirement from the Butler Su brought her cras.h.i.+ng down from her dreams.
“All these terms are acceptable. The Su family promises to invest no less than one billion in you, Zhao Yu, in the short term…”
“But there’s one more condition you need to agree to!
“What is the condition?” Zhao Yu curiously asked.
The Butler Su glanced at Liu Si Yu and slowly said, “You have to marry the Su family’s legitimate daughter, Su Xiao Xiao….”
