Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 873 One hundred and ten million, with even smaller amounts
Wang Weiguo put on airs in front of his son before slowly saying, "If you want to do something, why not just join the company? Why set up your own faction? Work here for a few years, see which position you're good at, and then I'll hand over this business to you."

"Sigh." Wang Ye scratched his head. "I'm all grown up now, I need to support myself, right?"

"If you really want to do something, fine, I'll support you. But if you say you want to start a company with Jin Yuanyuan, isn't that just giving her money?"

Wang Weiguo snorted, "It's a sure thing that she'll make money. The problem is, do I need you to make money for me? Is this considered starting a business? What can you learn from this process? Isn't this just a waste of time? Anyway, you can have pocket money, but I won't pay for this."

"Oh, it's nothing, I was just saying." Wang Ye chuckled twice, turned around and left: "Oh right, Dad, I'm going out for a bit, I won't be back today."

"Where have you been again?!" Wang Weiguo shouted angrily.

"Let's go to the Great White Cloud Temple." Wang Ye walked out of the manor without turning his head, humming a strange little tune.

"I suddenly realized that it's been so long since I've seen them, and I miss them terribly! I have to have a good chat with them today, and I also need to pay my respects to a few elders. Back in Wudang, they really admired me..."

"return!"

Wang Weiguo couldn't help but roar, "One hundred and ten million, is that it?"

"Hehe, that ten million was actually something I wanted to keep for myself. These past few years living on the mountain have been quite tough..."

“I’ll transfer you a few hundred first, and the hundred million will arrive in a few days, but I need you to promise me…” Wang Weiguo suddenly roared, “You’re not allowed to go to the Taoist temple again! I’ll tolerate you spending all your time in clubs!”

"Hey..." Wang Ye felt relieved after hearing this, then chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Going to clubs? I'd need to be rich first, you really think I wanted to hoard that ten million for myself..."

Originally, of the 110 million, 100 million was supposed to be used for starting a business, and the remaining 10 million was to cover the protection plan for NaDuTong.

But things are different now; He Songling wants it all. Of course, not too much; he wants exactly what Wang Weiguo paid in the original story. After all, he's doing a favor for money, so it's not a bad thing for him.

As for Jin Yuanyuan, this financial prodigy, he also needs to find a way to seduce her.

I don't know how long I'll be in this world. What if I don't have enough money?
An ordinary person with 100 million yuan might not even be able to spend it all. Housing purchases are restricted, and luxury yachts and private jets require approval and registration before purchase; they don't accept just any client. But for He Songling, who was once the world's richest man, 100 million yuan and one yuan aren't that different. If he really wanted to splurge, it wouldn't even last two or three days.

We need to find a way to make money from money.

The next day.

"No, brother, I've already tricked you out of the money from my dad, why do you still insist on meeting him in person?" Wang Ye never expected that even though he had already tricked He Songling out of the money he wanted from Wang Weiguo, He Songling still instructed him to arrange a time to visit Wang Weiguo in person.

“No way. One hundred and ten million! You have to understand that even this ten million, which your dad calls a ‘small change,’ is money that many ordinary people couldn’t save or earn in several lifetimes. I’ve taken so much money from your dad, I can’t just take it without even telling him, can I? I have to go.” He Songling looked righteous and awe-inspiring; anyone who didn’t know better would think he was some kind of moral exemplar.

"Just don't harm my father." Wang Ye knew that if He Songling really wanted to see his father, he couldn't stop him. With his skill in forcibly controlling Zhang Chulan, he could easily control Wang Ye to act as an inside man, let him in, and then control Wang Ye's family.

No matter how strict the authorities are in managing the attacks of outsiders on ordinary people, and no matter how high the level of his father's status could attract to wipe out He Songling's armed forces, by then his whole family would be finished.

The only option was to lead He Songling to see him first, so that at least while he was still sober, he could inform his family.

"What does this kid take me for? Some kind of villain?" He Songling said with a smile, looking at Zhang Lingyu and Xia He beside him.

"You're not even the villain?" Zhang Lingyu's lips twitched. "What you've done these past few days, is that something a good guy would do?"

"You've already spread the word that Wang Ye and Zhang Lingyu joined Quanxing because they were jealous of me. So it seems that you and I were the ones who introduced him to Quanxing. You should know that if you suddenly announce that you've joined Quanxing one day, it's a completely different treatment from having a senior member of Quanxing introduce you." Xia He covered her mouth and laughed.

"Yes, indeed. Li Muxuan was treated quite well back then, directly becoming the sect leader's crony. Of course, who knows where that kid is now." In the past, the Thirty-Six Thieves didn't have it too good, only slightly better than in the original story. Many of them had to flee, including Li Muxuan.

After all, Wugensheng has vanished without a trace, and the person he swore to follow for life is nowhere to be found. It's hard to say whether this kid will revert to his old ways. Or perhaps, before Wugensheng completely disappeared, he warned Li Muxuan to flee overseas and become the grandfather of the future King Nasen. It's also possible that...

However, when He Songling mentioned this name, the two young people didn't even know who he was.

“Alright, let’s meet today.” As he spoke, Wang Ye had already finished his call with his father. Coincidentally, Wang Weiguo was not busy at the moment, so he could meet his third son’s “friends”.

"Oh, Uncle Wang! Thank you for your kindness!" He Songling bowed deeply as soon as he entered the door. It seemed that if it weren't for modern society, he could have slid across the nearly 1,000-meter-long manor gate and knelt down in front of Wang Weiguo in the room to kowtow.

Wang Ye's lips twitched as he watched from behind. He turned to Zhuge Qing and said, "Doesn't he feel ashamed to act so young at his age?"

Although the two had no prior relationship and had only fought once, resulting in a swift victory, Wang Ye found the squinty-eyed man to be exceptionally agreeable during their trip to the capital, much easier to get along with than the hypocritical Zhang Lingyu.

Zhuge Qing clicked his tongue and his eyebrows twitched as he watched. "According to what my dad told me before he left, this senior was known for his cheap prices back then. He said that no matter how shameless the sect leaders were at that time, they couldn't compare to this one even if they were all put together."

Back in the day, the venerable Master Zuo Ruotong of the Trinity Sect was a man of noble character and impeccable integrity. Yet, in his final days, his disciple dragged him down from his pedestal and trampled him mercilessly. His posthumous reputation... tsk.

"You two be careful. I think Old Ling is fine."

Xia He's husky, alluring yet slightly threatening voice rang out from the side. Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye turned their heads and saw that this old woman, relying on her amazing elasticity, had somehow managed to slip out from under Zhang Lingyu's arm and was looking at them with a threatening expression.
