There are over fifty villages and towns below Fengdu, not to mention thousands of acres of fertile land!
From a data perspective, the Fang family's scale is stronger than Er Zhu's, but in reality, the quality of Er Zhu's Chinese medicinal herbs is better than the Fang family's!
Not only that, but it's significantly better!
"I heard from Li Mei that you also have a Chinese medicine industry, but the Fang family is the largest Chinese medicinal material merchant in North China Province, with the largest planting base for Chinese medicinal materials!"
Seeing Er Zhu's calm expression, Zhou Ling thought she hadn't explained clearly enough and quickly added.
"Yes, although Chinese medicine is the Fang family's main business, they also have other industries. Although those industries are not large, they are spread across every corner of Fengdu!"
"In short, the Fang family is a prominent family second only to the three major powerful families in Fengdu. Their strength should not be underestimated!"
As soon as Zhou Ling finished speaking, the hotel's vice president, standing nearby, seemed to recall something and added.
Hearing this, Li Mei's heart was pounding. She thought it was just a simple theft case, but she didn't expect so many hidden complexities!
If this matter were not handled properly, Er Zhu might suffer some losses!
"Er Zhu, be careful. If you can handle this, do it. If not, call the police."
Li Mei became more and more worried. She gently tugged Er Zhu's sleeve to remind him.
"Hmm, just a Fang family. It's nothing."
Er Zhu remained calm. As the eldest son of the Luo family in the capital, he didn't even care about the Bai family, let alone the so-called Fang family!
If Madam Fang was reasonable, he would naturally find the lost necklace. But if she was unreasonable, he wouldn't mind taking the Fang family down with it!
As they spoke, Er Zhu and his group had arrived at the presidential suite floor. As soon as Er Zhu stepped out of the elevator, a plump woman grabbed him.
"You are the owner of this hotel, right? I'm telling you, you must find that thief and my necklace immediately, or I'll make you die in Fengdu!"
Madam Fang shoved everyone around Er Zhu aside, glared fiercely at Er Zhu with her small, triangular eyes, and spoke in an extremely arrogant tone!
Er Zhu had intended to use his Heaven's Eye to locate the lost item, but seeing the woman's demeanor, he felt it was unnecessary.
"Well, then call the police and let them help you find it."
Just as Madam Fang was about to say something, she was surprised to hear this. As she reached out to grab Er Zhu to argue, she didn't expect Er Zhu to turn and leave.
"Don't push your luck. I didn't call the police to give you a chance to appease my Fang family. If I call the police, you'll be my Fang family's enemy!"
"What's more, the director of the police station is my cousin!"
Er Zhu had only taken a couple of steps when Madam Fang's words came from behind him. Upon hearing this, everyone gasped, looking at Madam Fang in horror.
The director of the police station was Madam Fang's relative, so if they called the police, the hotel owner would also be thrown into jail!
"Mr. Wang, the common people cannot fight against officials. I know Madam Fang's words are a bit excessive, but you can't ruin your reputation out of spite."
Zhou Ling suddenly came over, glancing warily at Madam Fang, and offered a kind reminder.
She only knew about the Fang family's strength in the business world, but she hadn't expected them to have connections in the political arena. If this matter wasn't handled properly, Fang's Hotel might have to close down!
"As a police officer's family member, shouldn't you set an example? The police are the people's police!"
Before Er Zhu could speak, Li Mei, standing nearby, angrily stepped forward and reprimanded her.
She detested people who abused their power. They thought they were so clever, but in reality, they were the most foolish!
"Who is this little enchantress? Get lost if you don't want to die. I'll tell you, in Fengdu, I, Madam Fang, am this domineering, and no one can control me!"
Li Mei's words enraged Madam Fang. She cursed and was about to push Li Mei when Er Zhu stepped in front of Li Mei. Madam Fang intended to strike, but looking into Er Zhu's cold eyes, she inexplicably dared not move.
This man's status was low, but his gaze was quite terrifying. The imposing aura he exuded, even more potent than Old Bai's!
Madam Fang shivered involuntarily. She wanted to say something, but thinking of Er Zhu's chilling gaze, she could only hold back.
"Wife, how is it? Have you found the Sea Blue Star yet?"
Just then, a greasy-looking man with slicked-back hair ran over. He hugged Madam Fang and asked anxiously.
"Er Zhu, this is Fang Chusheng, the head of the Fang family!"
Seeing the man, Zhou Ling quickly leaned in to remind him.
Fang Chusheng?
Wouldn't "Fang Beast" be a more fitting name...
A flash of insight crossed Er Zhu's eyes. He saw Fang Chusheng's sordid deeds, but these had nothing to do with him, and he didn't want to mention them, nor did he bother.
"Husband, you're just in time. This hotel owner is not only irresponsible but also insulted me, and he even wanted to hit me."
Seeing Fang Chusheng, Madam Fang instantly found her backing. She pointed at Er Zhu, full of anger and grievance, and complained.
She had never suffered such humiliation since she was a child. This young owner must pay the price today!
"Husband, will you buy this hotel and give it to me?"
Madam Fang's eyes rolled, as if she had thought of something. She swayed Fang Chusheng's arm and pouted.
Her plump face, combined with her forced childlike voice, not only failed to evoke pity but instead gave people a feeling of disgust and a desire to punch her!
Some of the surrounding guests couldn't help but gag. Even Fang Chusheng's expression changed slightly.
"Okay, okay, buy, buy, buy, but let's find the Sea Blue Star first. Hurry up and call the police!"
A hint of disgust flashed in Fang Chusheng's eyes. He perfunctorily shook off Madam Fang's hand and urged her to call the police.
"Boy, you're finished this time. I will definitely have my cousin arrest you, and then everything you own will be mine!"
Seeing her husband nod, Madam Fang became even more arrogant. As she spoke, she dialed her cousin's number.
"Boss Fang, this is Fang's Hotel. Are you sure you can buy it?"
Seeing Madam Fang hang up the phone, Li Mei stood up in anger, her eyes full of indignation.
Looking at the woman as beautiful as a celestial being, Fang Chusheng felt his soul leave his body!
Good heavens, could there be such a stunning beauty in this world? It was simply unbelievable!
Fang Chusheng felt his saliva constantly increasing. He gazed at the beauty before him again and again, feeling a physical reaction!
"It's just a broken hotel, what can't be bought?"
But at this moment, his wife's words pulled him back to reality. Fang Chusheng was about to nod, but then he suddenly remembered a crucial point!
Fang's Hotel was a chain hotel of the Fang family in Hua Bei City. The Northern Hua Fang family was a first-class influential family!
