Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

How could the foreign devils have imagined that a mere businessman would be so cunning? He transferred money to his father's account only to prevent being scammed, not to plot against the Vlamik family.
Tao Wei glanced at Vladimir in surprise. Wasn't this guy scared at all? After all, this was a ticking time bomb!
"Haha, Mr. Vladimir is so straightforward. Our cooperation agreement is reached. When will we sign the contract?"

It's true that the Tao family has declined, but they still have the ability to get rid of Vlamikl's father. That's what you call a starved camel is still bigger than a horse. Otherwise, how would they dare to flee here?

"What about US dollars?"

Vladimir wasn't in a hurry to bring up signing a contract; the key now was how to make sure this guy wasn't just trying to fool him.
That's three million US dollars! Even though China has reformed and opened up, very few people can come up with that much money at once!

"The money will be in your father's account the day our contract is signed!"

Tao Wei rolled his eyes. This is Polar Bear, after all. Once you sign a contract, you have to follow the rules. Otherwise, you'll just be asking for trouble.

Is this guy out of his mind? Who would be so stupid as to lose their freedom for three million dollars?
"Tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM sharp, I will bring the contract here. I hope you are not Mr. Fan Jinyou, otherwise, I will show you what fear is!"

Flamkiel gave Tao Wei a warning look, then turned and left. He still had some time; he needed to use the power of his family to conduct a thorough investigation into Tao Wei.

Information about He Yuzhu is easy to find, after all, he is a star businessman in China. However, Vlamikil, who claims to have been paying attention to China, has never heard of a person named Tao Wei!

"Don't worry, doing business is about making money. Why would I break a promise if there's money to be made? See you tomorrow, Mr. Vladimir!"

Tao Wei paid no heed to Vladimir's warnings; if it weren't for the fact that this guy had his father's connections, he really wouldn't want to cooperate.

After getting to know him for a while, Tao Wei firmly believed that Flamikil had definitely lost his mind. It was ridiculous that he would turn down a big spender like He Yuzhu and instead trust Fan Jinyou, who only knew how to talk big!

"Bang Geng, Fan Jinyou, you've broken the rules. You didn't report such a big matter to me and made decisions in private. Do you know how terrifying the Vlamigil family is? If I hadn't shown up, you would probably have been carried out by now, understand?"

After Vladimir left, Tao Wei looked at the two of them coldly, especially that ingrate Bang Geng. "I brought you to Polar Bear, gave you money and food, and helped you establish yourself in the Chinese community in Polar Bear. Now you want to go it alone? Is that appropriate?"

"Brother, Fan Jinyou has known Vladimir for twenty years. We never expected that this bastard would be so easily fooled. A few words and a few drinks were all it took to reach an agreement!"

Bang Geng knew how terrifying Tao Wei was, and even more so, how powerful he was in the polar bear region. Therefore, he didn't want to cause a scene until he was absolutely certain of victory. What if he got sacked and thrown into the freezing cold and died without anyone even knowing? As for Fan Jinyou, he stood silently to the side without offering any explanation. First, he wasn't one of Tao Wei's men, so there was no need for him to explain.

Secondly, Tao Wei is too powerful, so any explanation would be futile; thirdly, this is just his personality—when he encounters someone strong, he behaves very obediently and simply listens!
"Bang Geng, we've been brothers for so many years, and you deserve half the credit for what I am today. I hope you won't have any improper thoughts, otherwise, it will be very difficult for the eldest brother!"

Tao Wei's tone softened considerably. It was all about using relationships anyway, and Shenzhou needed a front man. If the polar bear incident hadn't happened, these two would still be of great use.

To put it bluntly, Tao Wei never intended to make money honestly; instead, he wanted to accumulate strength in the shortest amount of time so that he could throw Bang Geng out to take the blame, which would be perfect.
Then, he would reappear in the capital as a successful businessman. By then, the family's influence during the special period would be minimized, and the family's resources could still be used to rise again!

In Tao Wei's mind, how could a successful businessman not have a few front men? Fan Jinyou is a good kid, and Dong Yong is doing well in Hong Kong. It is said that he has gained control of a company. When the time comes, he will bring this guy to Hong Kong and throw him out if something goes wrong!

Tao Wei's family was the powerful backer of Dong Yong's family. With the collapse of Dong Yong's family, Tao Wei's family also disappeared.
The situation was too complicated during this special period, and by the time the family realized what was happening, it was too late. If Tao Wei hadn't been thrown out by the family earlier, he might have already been imprisoned!
"I understand, brother. Didn't we agree to share the good times and the bad? Don't worry, I'm not ungrateful. We'll be doing great things together in the future."

As for He Yuzhu, he'll always find a way to deal with it. A gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years; one day, He Yuzhu will pay a heavy price for his past actions!

Bang Geng knew that Tao Wei didn't want him to seek revenge on He Yuzhu right now. Besides, according to Vladimir's casual conversation, He Yuzhu had already left Polar Bear and his whereabouts were unknown.

Since that's the case, why not temporarily abandon the idea of ​​revenge, express your stance to Tao Wei, and prevent Tao Wei from continuing to suspect that you were going to kill him!
"That's good. Once we've built up our strength, the He Group will be a piece of cake. It's true that a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years, but revenge depends on strength. With our current strength, we're simply not capable of taking revenge, and we might even be wiped out by He Yuzhu. We need to be careful!"

He Yuzhu actually has a connection with Elena. If Tao Wei hadn't seen him at the Cosmic Hotel, his classmate studying at Polar Bear University wouldn't have paid much attention to him.

Only those who truly understand polar bears know how terrifying Elena is. To be precise, it's not Elena who's terrifying; the truly terrifying family is the Vinogradov family. A single word from this family can send shivers down the spines of polar bears.
He still needed to develop his business in Polar Bear, so he dared not offend the Vinogradov family's little princess; otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died, and bankruptcy would be the least of his worries.
Of course, Tao Wei would never tell Bang Geng and Fan Jinyou this information. The two of them were not qualified to know so much information. If Fan Jinyou hadn't known Vlamikl, the two of them wouldn't even be qualified to know about the Vlamikl family!
"Yes, brother. What are the plans next? Do Fan Jinyou and I need to go back to Shenzhou to make arrangements?"

Bang Geng breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he knew Tao Wei well and that he had gotten away with it. Only then did he think about the next step of his plan.

Bang Geng could never forget Yi Nian'en. The thought of his beloved and He Ying being so affectionate made him feel heartbroken. If Tao Wei hadn't personally sent a telegram, he wouldn't have returned so quickly!
"No need, I'll handle things in China. Bang Geng, you're familiar with polar bears, so it'll be up to you to coordinate with Vladimir. I'm going to Hong Kong Island, Mr. Fan Jinyou, would you like to come along?" (End of Chapter)
