"If that's the case, we still have a chance to curry favor with that Lord Lu!" Yang Jiaqi said repeatedly, "Or we could use a honey trap!"
Having said that, Yang Jiaqi tidied her hair. She had always been confident in her beauty, always causing a stir wherever she went.
"Lord Lu is incredibly powerful. The major wealthy families in Jiangnan obey his every word. He can be considered the boss of Jiangnan," Yang Ding Tian said. "If you can become his woman, you'll wield immense power in Jiangnan in the future. It's a pity I don't know where that lord is located."
"I'll send someone to find out right now!" Yang Jiaqi said. "At the same time, I'll pay a visit to Taikang Pharmaceuticals to probe that kid's intentions. If that kid is truly connected to that lord, I'll only be able to get information about the lord from him!" Su Dan Novel Network.
"That would be for the best," Yang Ding Tian nodded. "Without the Zhao family as a backing, the Yang family will find it difficult to rise in Qingzhou. You should know this. In the future, the Yang family will be managed by you. There absolutely cannot be any mistakes."
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I won't let such a thing happen!"
Yang Jiaqi nodded and smiled, her eyes carrying a cold glint. She had long wanted to drive Lu Fan out of Qingzhou. If she could gain the appreciation of that lord, dealing with Lu Fan would be effortless.
However, if Lu Fan was connected to that lord, she would naturally have to be cautious.
Upon learning of the rift between the Zhao and Yang families, many businesses became restless. Many businesses even directly cooperated with Taikang Pharmaceuticals, reaching numerous cooperation agreements.
The stagnant Taikang Pharmaceuticals instantly came to life, and the employees became spirited. With pharmaceutical suppliers, their company could be completely revitalized.
In the office, Manager Chen reported the situation, his face beaming with smiles, almost unable to close his mouth. "Mr. Lu, rest assured, in due time, the Yang family will not be able to survive in Qingzhou!"
"That would be excellent!" Lu Fan nodded slightly. "If you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me directly!"
"Mr. Lu is truly omniscient. You could even handle the Zhao family!" Manager Chen chuckled. "After all, the Zhao family is no ordinary power. They hold considerable status in Jiangnan and won't listen to anyone."
"It's not difficult as long as one puts their mind to it," Lu Fan shrugged, appearing indifferent.
Manager Chen secretly admired Lu Fan. Although Lu Fan spoke lightly, it was enough to show that Lu Fan was no ordinary person. Otherwise, how could he have resolved this matter so easily?
As Taikang Pharmaceuticals' stock soared, the Yang family's businesses shrunk considerably, even becoming precarious.
In the following days, Old Master Zhao pondered in the hotel, becoming increasingly unhappy, not knowing how to please Lu Fan.
Even if he couldn't get Lu Fan's assistance, he absolutely could not offend Lu Fan. This was his bottom line. After all, Lu Fan's displayed strength in the battle at Bailong Town was too formidable, instilling fear in his heart.
"Several days have passed, and the Yang family's pharmaceutical business is precarious while Taikang Pharmaceuticals is gradually growing," Hei Luosha said. "I believe Lord Lu will be satisfied with this outcome!"
"Perhaps not!" Old Master Zhao frowned. "It's all my fault for being foolish for a moment, otherwise, I wouldn't have caused such a great disaster."
"Old Master, there's no need to worry. I think that Lord Lu merely wants to experience city life. With his methods, dealing with the Yang family would be as easy as blowing away dust," Hei Luosha smiled. "I've already inquired. Lord Lu is staying at the Tianfu Bieyuan in Qingzhou. He also has an elderly woman who sells osmanthus cakes, named Grandma Osmanthus. If we can infiltrate through her, it might not be a bad thing!"
"Grandma Osmanthus?" Old Master Zhao's eyes gleamed. "How can we infiltrate?"
"Grandma Osmanthus has a stall and sells osmanthus cakes diligently every day," Hei Luosha smiled. "I've also specifically tasted one; it's indeed delicious! As long as Old Master chats with her and becomes familiar, it won't be difficult to meet Lord Lu."
"Hei Luosha, Hei Luosha! I truly haven't misjudged you!" Old Master Zhao nodded. "Let's do as you say. We'll go eat osmanthus cakes now. Once we're familiar with Grandma Osmanthus, meeting and even currying favor with Lord Lu will be effortless."
A car drove up to the entrance of Taikang Pharmaceuticals. A while later, Yang Jiaqi arrived at Lu Fan's office.
Lu Fan drank his coffee, looking at the person before him with a hint of disdain. "You don't come to the palace without a reason. What business do you have at Taikang Pharmaceuticals?"
"I just came to ask you one thing: what is your relationship with Lord Lu?" Yang Jiaqi asked directly, with a mixture of anticipation and concern.
"Lord Lu?" Lu Fan smiled. "Who is this Lord Lu you're referring to? I don't seem to know him. However, there aren't many people surnamed Lu at Taikang Pharmaceuticals, like me!"
"Don't be ridiculous! What kind of person is Lord Lu that you can impersonate him!" Yang Jiaqi scolded. "I thought you had some connection with Lord Lu, but it seems I was overthinking it!"
"Although I don't know Lord Lu, I know your Yang family is in for big trouble!" Lu Fan smiled. "The stock price these past few days has fallen significantly for Yang's Pharmaceutical!"
"Just you wait! Before long, you'll see how powerful my Yang's Pharmaceutical is!" Yang Jiaqi said coldly. "Since you don't know Lord Lu, I can rest assured!"
With these words, Lu Fan couldn't help but chuckle. If he guessed correctly, the Lord Lu mentioned by Yang Jiaqi was likely himself.
After leaving Taikang Pharmaceuticals, Yang Jiaqi appeared smug. The matter she worried about most had not happened. As long as Lu Fan had no connection to Lord Lu, it would be effortless for them to deal with Taikang Pharmaceuticals.
However, all this would have to wait until she met Lord Lu and became his woman.
"Mr. Lu, the deputy general manager of Yang's Enterprise visits here every few days. Could it be that she's fallen for you!" Manager Chen chuckled. "If that's the case, you could tie the knot, and even merge companies. I heard that Yang Jiaqi is the sole heir of Yang's Pharmaceutical."
"I think it's best not to," Lu Fan waved his hand. "I can't afford someone like her. Besides, I already have someone I like!"
"Could it be someone from the sales department?" Manager Chen tried to guess. "I heard that person has good performance in the sales department and is about to be promoted to team leader!"
"Are you playing favorites?" Lu Fan glanced over. "It's enough for him to have a stable job. Don't promote him just because of my face!"
"Mr. Lu, rest assured, we treat everyone equally," Manager Chen said repeatedly. "It's just that his performance is outstanding, which is why he has this opportunity."
Lu Fan nodded, also quite satisfied. Lin Ke had graduated from school not too long ago, and achieving this much was already quite difficult.
