The God of Wealth starts with doing whatever you want

Chapter 502 Who the hell is the hostage here?!

The tattooed man's shouts were particularly jarring on the busy street.

Passersby stopped to watch, some with curiosity, some instinctively avoiding the scene, and no one dared to get involved.

Ayase Haruka's face was deathly pale, and her fingers trembled slightly as she held the empty milk tea cup.

My shoulder, which had just been bumped, was still throbbing. Faced with the other person's aggressive stance, I could only instinctively apologize.

“Xu Sang…”

She timidly tugged at Xu Yun's sleeve, her eyes filled with panic, and said, "How about... we compensate him?"

In her mind, it's better to avoid trouble.

Especially since the other party seemed to have ill intentions, she didn't want Xu Yun to get into trouble because of her.

"Don't be afraid."

Xu Yun patted the back of her hand, his voice remaining calm.

He even had a barely perceptible smile on his face as he said, "You go back first, I'll handle things here."

"But……"

Ayase Haruka wanted to say something, but Xu Yun interrupted her first.

"obedient."

He turned to look at her, his eyes serious, and said, "I feel less at ease with you here. Go back to your apartment and wait for me. I'll come find you later."

He paused, then added, "Oh, and remember to lock the door and don't open it to strangers."

Seeing Xu Yun's confident demeanor, Ayase Haruka felt her anxiety subside somewhat.

She knew Xu Yun was no ordinary person; he had changed her situation with just one sentence at Sony yesterday, so perhaps he really could handle this matter.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she nodded: "Then you must be careful, and call me anytime if anything happens."

"Ah."

Xu Yun responded and watched her turn and leave quickly until her figure disappeared into the crowd. Only then did he slowly turn his gaze back to the tattooed man in front of him.

The tattooed man watched the interaction between the two throughout, his fierce expression growing even more intense, a malicious smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"What? You want the woman to go first and you to carry the burden? You're quite responsible, aren't you? Too bad, this matter won't be resolved so easily today."

As he spoke, he deliberately puffed out his chest, revealing the hideous tattoos on his arms, trying to intimidate Xu Yun with his imposing presence.

Xu Yun leaned against a lamppost, hands in his pockets, and said casually, "200,000 yen? Your clothes don't look worth that much. They're at most a cheap bargain at a street stall for 20,000 yen."

"You're looking for fucking death!"

The tattooed man, exposed, became enraged and his eyes turned sinister. He roared, "Enough with the nonsense! Either pay up, or come with me and I'll show you what happens when you offend me!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the pedestrians around took a few steps back. Some people had already taken out their phones, seemingly wanting to call the police, but were stopped by their companions, who whispered, "It's better to avoid trouble."

Xu Yun raised an eyebrow, looking at him with interest: "Go with you? Where to?"

You'll know when you get there!

As the tattooed man spoke, he suddenly pulled a switchblade from the backpack behind him.

With a "snap," the sharp blade sprang out, gleaming coldly under the neon lights.

He took a sudden step forward, the blade pointing directly at Xu Yun's chest. "If you know what's good for you, come with me obediently, or don't blame me for wielding this blade!"

A murmur rippled through the surrounding crowd, and some people covered their mouths in fright.

No one expected that a small conflict would escalate to the point of drawing knives.

Xu Yun's smile deepened.

He had long suspected that the tattooed man was suspicious. The collision just now seemed accidental, but the force and angle were deliberate, clearly a deliberate attempt to cause trouble.

Now that the other party has pulled out a knife, his doubts have been instantly resolved.

This was not a simple staged accident; it was a premeditated act.

In other words, this kind of thing would be completely impossible in China, even if it happened abroad.

"Want to kidnap me?"

Xu Yun spoke casually, as if he were talking about something insignificant, saying, "You have good taste; you know I have money."

The tattooed man was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting Xu Yun to expose his purpose so directly, and so calmly at that.

Most people would be terrified at the sight of a knife, but this man seemed completely unfazed.

This made him feel inexplicably uneasy, but now there was no turning back.

"Now that you know, I don't need to waste my breath!"

The tattooed man gritted his teeth, held the knife to Xu Yun's throat, and threatened, "Don't try anything funny. Get in the car with me. If you cooperate, I promise I won't hurt a hair on your head. I'll let you go after I get the money!"

"Oh? So trustworthy?"

Xu Yun chuckled lightly, a playful glint in his eyes, and nodded, saying, "Alright, I'll go with you. You don't need to tie me up anymore."

His straightforwardness stunned the tattooed man again, leaving him momentarily speechless.

He originally thought it would take a lot of trouble, and he was even prepared to hurt someone, but he didn't expect the other party to agree so easily.

"You...you're not trying any tricks!"

The tattooed man looked at him warily, gripping the knife in his hand even tighter.

What trick am I playing?

Xu Yun shrugged and said, "You have a knife. If I don't cooperate, I'll be the one who suffers."

Besides, isn't it just about money? I have plenty. As long as you don't hurt me, money is no object.

He wasn't flustered at all.

With his strength, dealing with these petty thieves would be a piece of cake.

But he suddenly found it quite interesting.

Since I got my own system, my life has been going too smoothly. This occasional "kidnapping" adds a bit of fun to my mundane days.

He wanted to see just how bold these kidnappers were, and also wanted to experience what it felt like to be kidnapped.

Incidentally, he also wanted to test his importance in the hearts of these women.

Or they might want to see how the people around them would react if they were kidnapped.

Seeing that Xu Yun indeed showed no intention of resisting, the tattooed man lowered his guard slightly.

He pointed the knife at Xu Yun, gesturing for him to walk forward: "Come with me, don't turn around, don't speak, or I'll be rude to you!"

Xu Yun followed him and walked forward, passing through several alleys, until they arrived at a secluded roadside.

There was a black van without license plates parked there, and two equally sleazy-looking men standing next to it.

One had a buzz cut and a scar on his face, while the other was short and stout with cloudy eyes.

Upon seeing the two, the tattooed man immediately shouted, "Tiger, it's done!"

The scarred man, known as Tiger, nodded.

He sized Xu Yun up and down, noticing his refined attire and extraordinary demeanor. A glint of greed flashed in his eyes as he said, "This kid certainly looks like a rich man. We're going to strike it rich this time!"

The short, stout man rubbed his hands together and chuckled, "Brother Tiger was right. He'd been keeping an eye on this kid for a while, following him around all afternoon, just waiting for this opportunity!"

Xu Yun then realized that they had indeed been watching him for a long time.

Presumably, it was his lavish spending in the luxury store that attracted the attention of these people, which led them to plan this "kidnapping scam".

"Stop talking nonsense and get in the car!" Tiger waved his hand, signaling the tattooed man to put Xu Yun in the car.

The tattooed man shoved Xu Yun and stuffed him into the back seat of the van.

The van was filled with a pungent smell of smoke and mildew, and the seats were covered in dust.

As soon as Xu Yun sat down, the short, fat man sat down next to him and pressed down hard on his shoulders.

The scarred man, sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head and warned menacingly, "Behave yourself and don't move, or you'll regret it!"

Xu Yun leaned back in his seat, his eyes covered, looking completely indifferent.

He could feel the van start up and speed away down the street.

After an unknown amount of time, the van finally stopped.

Xu Yun's blindfold was ripped off, revealing a car parked in an abandoned warehouse area. The surroundings were deserted, with only a few dilapidated streetlights emitting a faint glow.

"Come down!"

The tattooed man opened the car door and pulled Xu Yun out.

Xu Yun staggered for a moment, then steadied himself and looked around at his surroundings.

This place looks like an abandoned factory, with several dilapidated factory buildings standing alone, overgrown with weeds, making it look particularly gloomy.

"Follow me!" The scarred man led them into one of the factory buildings.

The factory was empty, with only a few rusty steel beams and some discarded parts and garbage scattered on the ground.

There were some old cardboard boxes piled up in the corner, which looked like someone was temporarily living there.

The scarred man pointed to a dilapidated wooden crate on the ground and said, "Sit down!"

Xu Yun sat down as instructed.

He looked up at the three kidnappers in front of him and said with a smile, "Alright, now you can talk. How much money do you want?"

The scarred man was surprised that Xu Yun remained so calm, and he couldn't help but admire him, but he was mostly greedy.

He held up one finger: "5000 million yen! Not a penny less!"

5000 million yen is roughly equivalent to 250 million yuan, which is a drop in the ocean for Xu Yun.

He almost laughed.

"no problem."

Xu Yun readily agreed, saying, "But isn't 5000 million yen too little? Listen to me, how about 3 million yen directly?"

"???"

The scarred man originally thought he would have to spend a lot of time haggling, but he didn't expect the other party to agree so easily.

They're even actively trying to increase their own value!
From 5000 million yen, it turned into 3 million yuan, or 1500 million yuan!
"Don't try anything funny with me!"

The scarred man looked at him warily and said, "We only want 5000 million yen, not a penny less, and it must be in cash. We need to gather it all tonight!"

"cash?"

Xu Yun frowned and said, "It's so late, where am I supposed to get so much cash for you? How about I transfer the money to you, or I can have my friend bring it over?"

"no!"

The scarred man immediately refused, saying, "Transferring money will leave a trace. We don't trust your friend to deliver it either. Who knows if you're trying to trick us or call the police? It has to be cash. Figure it out yourself!"

Xu Yun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, cash it is. But I don't have that much money on me. I need to message my women and ask them to raise the money for me."

Also, I'm Chinese, and my money is all in China. It will take some time to send it over; the fastest it could be will be two days.

"Your woman?"

The scarred man paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Looks like you're quite the romantic. But that's fine, let them chip in, saves you the trouble. Take out your phone!"

Xu Yun took out his phone from his pocket, unlocked it, and handed it to the scarred man.

The scarred man took the phone, checked it carefully, and after confirming there were no problems, handed it to Xu Yun: "Quickly send a message to tell them to gather the money and deliver it to the designated location before midnight the day after tomorrow, or we'll kill the hostage!"

"Don't worry, they'll get them all together."

Xu Yun took the phone, opened WeChat, and found a WeChat group called "Three Thousand Beauties in the Harem".

This group is full of his women.

The robber was stunned when he saw the profile pictures in the group chat.

"Are these all your women?"

"correct."

Robber: "..."

Damn, one person has so many women, and they're all in the same group!

A look of suspicion appeared on the scarred man's face.

"Don't try anything funny with me. Do you really think these women will pool their money for you?"

"of course."

Xu Yun said confidently, "They all love me." "..."

The scarred man chuckled sinisterly and sent a voice message to the WeChat group in a fierce tone.

"Xu Yun is in our hands now. If you want him to live, prepare 5000 million yen in cash."

I will contact you again before midnight the day after tomorrow. Do not call the police, do not try anything funny, or we will kill the hostage!

After sending the voice message, the scarred man immediately turned off Xu Yun's phone and put it in his pocket.

"Alright, now it's just a matter of waiting for your women to scrape together the money. Hopefully they'll know what's good for them, or you'll be feeding the dogs!"

Xu Yun watched his actions calmly.

Now all the women know he's been kidnapped, and they're probably in an uproar right now.

He wanted to see how these women would handle the situation.

Meanwhile, at a high-end resort in Guilin, a group of beautifully dressed women were sitting around the outdoor pool, drinking red wine and chatting.

They were Zhong Yanyan, Su Mu, Ning Qian, Xinuo, and others.

"Susu, what do you think Xu Yun is doing in Japan right now?"

Li Jinshu swirled the wine in her glass and said with a smile, "Ever since he went to Japan, he's rarely spoken in the group chat. Could it be that he's hooked up with some young girl over there?"

Su Mu took a sip of red wine and smiled helplessly, "He's always restless wherever he goes."

Li Jinshu leaned back in his recliner, wearing sunglasses, and said slowly, "Who cares? When he comes back, we'll have to interrogate him properly and see what he's been doing in Japan."

Just then, Su Mu's phone suddenly vibrated, and a WeChat message popped up.

She picked up her phone and saw that it was a message from the "Three Thousand Beauties in the Imperial Harem" group.

"Who is it? Sending messages so late."

Su Mu opened the WeChat group with a puzzled look and found that it was actually sent by Xu Yun.

She opened the voice message, and the scarred man's fierce voice came from the phone.

"Xu Yun is in our hands now. If you want him to live, prepare 5000 million yen in cash. We will contact you again before noon the day after tomorrow. Do not call the police or try anything funny, or we will kill him!"

As the audio finished playing, Su Mu's hand trembled violently, and the wine glass almost fell to the ground.

"Su Su, what's wrong?" Liu Ruoxi noticed her unusual behavior and quickly asked.

Su Mu's face turned deathly pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "Xu Yun... Xu Yun seems to have been kidnapped!"

"what?!"

Song Xiaowei and Li Jinshu exclaimed in surprise at the same time, and the other women also gathered around, their faces full of shock and worry.

Li Jinshu took off her sunglasses and asked urgently, "Susu, what did you say? Xu Yun has been kidnapped? What happened?"

Su Mu handed the phone to them and let them listen to the voice message themselves.

When the scarred man made his threat, everyone immediately erupted in chaos.

"How could this happen? How could Xu Yun have been kidnapped?"

"Those kidnappers are too arrogant, they actually dared to kidnap Xu Yun!"

"But why does the other party only want 5000 million yen? Is Xu Yun really that worthless?"
Or is this just an excuse, a pretext? Is their real purpose not kidnapping for money?

"Perhaps the other party doesn't know that Xu Yun is very rich. Let's transfer the money to him as soon as possible."

"No, we can't just listen to the kidnappers. What if we give them the money and they still kill the hostage?"

"Shall we call the police? It'll be safer to let them handle it."

"No! The kidnappers said not to call the police. What if calling the police angers them and it's bad for Xu Yun?"

The women chattered amongst themselves, each one anxious and flustered, creating a chaotic scene.

Just then, Zhong Yanyan walked in from outside.

She was the calmest, most opinionated, and most capable of all the women in the group.

"Don't panic, everyone!"

Zhong Yanyan's voice wasn't loud, but it carried a calming power as she said, "There's no use panicking now. We need to calm down and think of a way to save Xu Yun."

Hearing her words, the women gradually quieted down and looked at her, waiting for her to make a decision.

"First of all, we cannot call the police."

Zhong Yanyan said in a deep voice, "The kidnappers are currently emotionally unstable, and Xu Yun is in their hands. We cannot take any risks."

Secondly, it's only 1000 million yen; we'll give it to him if he wants it. Ensuring Xu Yun's safety is the most important thing.

"But we're in Guilin now, how can we send the money to Tokyo?"

Su Mu said, "Time is so tight, there's simply no time!"

Zhong Yanyan frowned; she had also thought of this problem.

They are far away in Guilin and have no way to help them.

"Wait, Xu Yun is in Japan right now, and Lin Zhengyu is also in Japan. Xu Yun went there with him!"

Zhong Yanyan suddenly remembered something and said, "You guys stay here, I'm going to make a phone call!"

Without hesitation, Zhong Yanyan took out her phone and dialed Lin Zhengyu's number as soon as she left the room.

The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.

Lin Zhengyu's voice carried a hint of laziness, clearly indicating he had just been woken up: "Hello? Zhong Yanyan? What's up so late?"

"Lin Zhengyu!"

Zhong Yanyan's voice was filled with barely suppressed anger and anxiety as she questioned, "Xu Yun has been kidnapped! What are you doing? Weren't you with him in Japan? How could this happen to him?"

"ah?!!!"

Lin Zhengyu was still in a daze, but when he heard the words "Xu Yun has been kidnapped," he instantly woke up.

He jumped out of bed in shock: "What? What did you say? Xu Yun has been kidnapped? You're not kidding me!"

"Who are you kidding?"

Zhong Yanyan angrily said, "The kidnappers have already sent a voice message in the WeChat group, demanding a ransom of 5000 million yen, or they will kill the hostage!"
You need to think of a way quickly and make sure Xu Yun is safe!
"If anything happens to Xu Yun, I'll kill you!"

"..."

Lin Zhengyu's mind went blank; he couldn't believe that Xu Yun had been kidnapped.

He knew Xu Yun's strength; ordinary people couldn't even get close to him. How could he have been kidnapped by a few petty thugs?
"impossible……"

Lin Zhengyu muttered, "Isn't Xu Yun on a date with a woman right now?"

"I don't care about any of that!"

Zhong Yanyan said sternly, "The most important thing now is to save Xu Yun. You need to verify the situation quickly and see if what the kidnappers said is true."

Then deliver him as the kidnappers demanded, making sure Xu Yun's safety is guaranteed!

"Okay! Okay! I understand!"

Lin Zhengyu quickly replied, "I'll go verify the situation right now and contact you as soon as I have any news!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhengyu was wide awake.

He immediately dialed Xu Yun's number, only to find that the phone was switched off.

Damn, could I really have been kidnapped?

He quickly got Ayase Haruka's phone number from the person in charge at Sony and dialed the number.

Because Xu Yun is with her today!

Meanwhile, in Hong Kong.

In the chairman's office of Yuntian Investment Group, Fu Baoying was still processing documents.

She picked up her phone, intending to send Xu Yun a message to ask about his situation in Japan, but found that he hadn't replied to any of the messages she had sent him before.

She had some doubts in her heart.

Xu Yun is usually busy, but he always makes time to reply to her messages. What's going on today?

She tried calling Xu Yun, but the phone was switched off.

Fu Baoying's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition welled up in her mind.

She knew Xu Yun; he never turned off his phone easily unless there was a special situation.

She immediately opened WeChat and joined the "Three Thousand Beauties in the Imperial Harem" group.

But when she saw the voice message from the kidnapper, Fu Baoying's face turned ashen.

"Xu Yun!"

She gasped softly, her fingers gripping the phone so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately dialed Lin Wanzhou's number.

Lin Wanzhou is Xu Yun's good friend and also his personal bodyguard.

The call was quickly answered, and Lin Wanzhou's voice came through: "President Fu? What's up so late?"

"Brother Lin, Xu Yun is in trouble!"

Fu Baoying's voice trembled slightly as she said, "Xu Yun has been kidnapped! He's in Tokyo, Japan!"

Lin Wanzhou was shocked upon hearing the news: "What? Xu Yun has been kidnapped? What happened?"

“I don’t know the specifics either. The kidnappers sent a voice message in the WeChat group. Listen to it yourself.”

As Fu Baoying spoke, she forwarded the voice message to Lin Wanzhou.

After listening to the voice message, Lin Wanzhou's expression turned serious. She said, "President Fu, don't panic. I'll arrange for people to fly to Tokyo immediately and rescue Xu Yun!"

"Brother Lin, I'm begging you!"

Fu Baoying's voice was pleading as she said, "You must ensure Xu Yun's safety; no amount of money matters!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Fu, I will!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Wanzhou immediately took action.

He immediately packed his gear, headed to the airport, and took the fastest flight to Tokyo.

In an instant, Guilin, Hong Kong, and Tokyo were all mobilized because of Xu Yun's kidnapping.

Meanwhile, in an abandoned factory in Tokyo, Xu Yun was leaning against a wooden crate, resting with his eyes closed.

The three kidnappers played cards nearby, glancing at him warily every now and then.

"Tiger, do you think that kid's woman will really send money?" the tattooed man asked as he played his cards.

The scarred man snorted: "Whether they come or not, we have to be prepared."

If they bring the money, we'll take it and leave; but if they dare call the police, we'll kill the hostage and run away as fast as we can.

The short, stout man laughed and said, "Brother Tiger is right! But I think that kid's woman will probably send money over. Look at how calm he is, he must be a rich man, and his woman won't be short of money either."

As Xu Yun listened to their conversation, a mocking smile curled at the corner of his lips.

These kidnappers are really naive, thinking they can run away easily once they get the money?
"Hey, the hostage is hungry."

Xu Yun opened his eyes, stretched his body, and shouted in fluent Japanese, "Hurry up and get me some food, or I won't cooperate with you."

The scarred man said to the tattooed man, "Go to the street and buy him some food and drinks."

Xu Yun said, "By the way, this time I want KFC, fried chicken and beer, not McDonald's!"

"..." kidnappers.

Who the hell is the hostage here?!
Tattooed man: "Big brother?"

"Watch what I do."

The scarred man roared, "Go ahead, satisfy him first. If he doesn't send the money, see how I deal with him."

The tattooed man said awkwardly, "But I have no money left."

Scar Man: "..."

"it's okay no problem."

Xu Yun said with a smile, "I still have some money in my phone, how about I transfer some to you first?"

The kidnappers: "..." (End of Chapter)
