Meng Hu raised his lips slightly and said calmly, "If we really destroy one of their teams, they will counterattack even more frantically. It would be better to give them two of them. This will let them know that we are not easy to mess with, and at the same time make them take the initiative to negotiate with us."
Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Meng Hu was doing things more and more like Meng Qingshan, calm and calculating, and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Dragon Group will definitely send someone to negotiate with you within three days."
Meng Hu quickly asked: "What conditions do we need to put forward?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Of course, according to international practice, the ransom is charged per person. The people in the Dragon Group are all elites, so the ransom for each person is 10 million."
Meng Hu was startled by Fang Zhicheng's big mouth and said, "Although the Long family is powerful, I'm afraid it will be difficult to come up with a ransom of 100 million."
Fang Zhicheng said calmly: "Since they offered themselves to us, how can we not take advantage of them? A ransom of 100 million is not much. If the Dragon Group can't even come up with this much courage, those members of the Dragon Group who are willing to work hard will probably be disheartened."
Meng Hu whispered, "I'll send a message to the other party right away."
Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry. Wait until the other party can't sit still and contact us first. Now we have the initiative in our hands. If we speak first, it will let the other party save some face. Besides, the two people you arranged to let go are the instigators. With the style of the Dragon Group, they will not give up those ten people."
Meng Hu thought about it carefully and said, "Then let's wait."
Fang Zhicheng nodded and suddenly said, "Now that Cao Yao's affairs are almost settled, let's prepare to transfer him to Yanjing."
If Fang Zhicheng had Meng Hu's help, he would be even more powerful.
Meng Hu said: "Cao Yao has already dealt with the tail. I have arranged a hidden line to ensure that the PPP industry invested by Yuming Media Group here will not be affected."
"I'm still a little worried about Wang Guoyue. This guy makes people suspicious no matter how you look at him." Fang Zhicheng sighed. In fact, he already knew Wang Guoyue. Ninety percent of gentlemen are only ten percent hypocritical. Yuming Group's PPP project in the new city district has made enough contributions to Cao Yao. Wang Guoyue will only help and will not do anything.
The reason why he still had doubts was mainly due to his personality. Deep down, Fang Zhicheng was a person who would not absolutely trust anyone.
He was even suspicious of Song Wendi, Su Lin, Su Mo, and even Su Qing. Of course, this was the habit of all schemers. They would think of people's hearts in a sinister way. Before dealing with any matter, they would try their best to improve the plan and make up for the omissions.
Chapter 1071 The Unrequited Desire
After ending the call with Meng Hu, there were several missed calls on the phone. These were the calls that were blocked during the call. Fang Zhicheng glanced at the number and frowned. Just as he was hesitating whether to call back, the call came in again.
Fang Zhicheng took a deep breath and said, "Hello, Wen Ling!"
It has been a while since I last contacted Wen Ling. Thinking back to the last time they met, Fang Zhicheng had already made it clear to her, so she should know what she should do.
If a person is too outstanding, he will face various temptations. Wen Ling is a person who always looks for higher mountains. When he sees Fang Zhicheng who is better than Qin Lang, he naturally climbs up the ladder.
Wen Ling chuckled a little exaggeratedly and said, "Brother-in-law, I thought you ignored me."
Fang Zhicheng pretended to be surprised and responded, "Why would I ignore you? You called me so many times in a hurry, is there something wrong?"
Wen Ling hummed, and said, "I will be on a business trip to Yanjing next week. I am unfamiliar with the place, so I wanted to ask you if you have time..."
Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that after not seeing each other for many years, Wen Ling was still pestering him, so he sighed and interrupted, "Yu Ming happens to be in Yanjing these days, so let her pick you up when the time comes."
Wen Ling paused and said, "Brother-in-law, you don't understand what I mean. I came here this time to see you."
Fang Zhicheng didn't expect Wen Ling to be so bold. He frowned and said, "Wen Ling, I told you very clearly back then that it's impossible for us to be together. If I take this step, how will I face Qin Lang and Yu Ming?"
Wen Ling groaned, glanced at Qin Lang who didn't understand, chuckled twice, and covered up: "Brother-in-law, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to do anything to you. To be honest, the city issued an instruction to me that I must get a national project to get money from the ministry. I don't know why the leader knew about my relationship with you, so he handed the important task to me. I can only shamelessly beg you!"
Fang Zhicheng felt a little embarrassed after hearing Wen Ling's explanation. Recalling his tone just now, he felt a lot of self-conceit. Wen Ling had expressed very ambiguous signals to him back then, but so many years have passed, Wen Ling has a child, Qin Lang has also developed well, and is now a director-level cadre with unlimited future. The little thoughts at the time should have faded.
Wen Ling had just finished her breastfeeding period and returned to work. She wanted to pursue progress as always, so she naturally hoped to do her job well. Before, Qin Lang sent two text messages to Fang Zhicheng, asking him to help take care of Wen Ling's work. Fang Zhicheng simply replied. Because he had some bad opinions about Wen Ling, he deliberately did not handle the matter.
Today's phone call was in line with Wen Ling's personality. Since Fang Zhicheng was unwilling to help her, she had to take the initiative and call Fang Zhicheng.
Fang Zhicheng was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Hanzhou is where I used to work, and I have feelings for it. Since Hanzhou needs to develop and change, as a former cadre, it is natural for me to support it."
Wen Ling smiled when Fang Zhicheng said this, "Then brother-in-law, we'll see you in a few days!"
After hanging up Fang Zhicheng's phone, Wen Ling looked at Qin Lang with disdain and said unhappily, "Why is it so difficult to ask you to do something? We are all family, why do you need to send text messages? Can't you just call directly?"
Qin Lang smiled awkwardly and said, "My brother-in-law has a high position and is very busy at work. If I call him, it will disturb him, so I just texted him, and he got back to me afterwards."
Wen Ling rolled her eyes at Qin Lang and said, "You are already a director at the department level. You are usually so loud and powerful. How come you become a coward when you see your brother-in-law?"
Qin Lang sighed and said, "I don't know why, but I sweat when I see my brother-in-law, and my tongue gets tied when I talk to him. If I talk to him for a long time, my brain will become sluggish."
Qin Lang originally thought that as he grew older, his fear of Fang Zhicheng would improve, but this fear became more severe with age.
The few times he interacted with Fang Zhicheng, Qin Lang felt like he had been through a hellish torture. Fang Zhicheng had been very gentle from beginning to end, but Qin Lang always felt that Fang Zhicheng was terrible.
Wen Ling laughed out loud, stretched out a jade finger, flicked Qin Lang's forehead hard, and said: "You have a mental illness called brother-in-law phobia!"
Qin Lang rubbed his forehead and said unhappily: "Even if I'm facing the mayor and the municipal party secretary, I'm not that nervous. I really need to find a chance to see a psychologist when I have time."
Wen Ling lowered her voice and said, "Qin Lang, this is my chance. The Municipal Party Committee is preparing to renew the candidates for the Beijing Office. I am ready to seize the opportunity and develop in the Beijing Office."
Qin Lang was a little unhappy and whispered: "This is not a good idea. The child is still so young, and you go to Yanjing while I work in Hanzhou!"
"The child has been weaned, your parents can help take care of him. It doesn't matter whether I am there or not." Wen Ling chuckled twice and continued, "Going to the Beijing Office is just an excuse for you to be transferred to Yanjing. Your work in Hanzhou is going well, but the level is still too low. Why don't you try your luck in the capital while you are still young? If I go to the Beijing Office, you can say a few soft words to your sister and ask your brother-in-law to transfer you to Yanjing to work. It will be a piece of cake."
Qin Lang's eyes widened. He obviously didn't expect Wen Ling to have such a plan in mind. He hesitated and asked, "Will it make things difficult for my brother-in-law?"
Wen Ling shook her slender fingers and said, "What kind of person is your brother-in-law now? Even Secretary Zang has to show him respect. When Secretary Zang was the deputy mayor, your brother-in-law was the district party secretary. Even though they are at the same level now, in fact, your brother-in-law has gone further and faster than Secretary Zang. With his ability, it's easy for him to arrange a position for you."
