However, the Wen family was in a gloomy mood at this time.
Ever since receiving the blackmail call, Mr. Wen has been depressed as if he had lost all his energy.
The sound of the beating on the phone kept echoing in Mr. Mo's mind, and each sound seemed to be knocking at his heart.
At this time, Xiao Huang came over and said, "Mr. Wen, Mr. Mo, the battalion commander and his men just led people to the air-raid shelter where the thugs were hiding, but found that it was empty. After preliminary confirmation, it was determined that the thugs took the hostages away. Our initial rescue has failed, and we have not yet grasped the whereabouts of the thugs."
Xiao Huang's words were like a bolt from the blue, shocking Grandpa Wen and Grandpa Mo. They were shaking with fear, their lips quivering but they were completely unable to speak.
Mr. Mo's lips trembled, and his old voice trembled violently: "Xin...Xinya's safety?"
Xiao Huang shook his head and said, "I can't be sure yet."
Mr. Wen staggered a step: "You mean, Xinya is now in danger of death?"
The granddaughter that the Wen family had found with so much difficulty, the only bloodline of the Wen family, is now in danger of death. God is trying to cut off the Wen family's bloodline. What evil has Wen Zhihang done
Mr. Wen was completely dazed and sat down on the sofa dejectedly.
This is all retribution, retribution...
If he had not been so ruthless and left no room for others, causing many families to be broken up, how could their Wen family end up with a weak bloodline, be despised by descendants, and even lose the last bloodline
Wen Zhihang did not believe in fate. He did not believe it when Yun Yao died, and he did not believe it when the only bloodline of the Wen family disappeared. But now he had to believe it.
Wen Haowen, who was under guard, learned that the rescue attempt for Wen Xinya had failed and she had disappeared. He felt a surge of joy in his heart. It seemed that Wen Xinya could not be saved.
Xiao Huang felt a little reluctant and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. The fact that the thugs are silent is the best sign. The most urgent thing is to prepare the ransom as soon as possible to prevent the thugs from changing their minds and shorten the time for paying the ransom. Then we will have a response."
Mr. Wen and Mr. Mo nodded repeatedly.
Xiao Huang instructed again in a serious tone: "The situation has changed. Our rescue operation has failed. I estimate that the thugs will kill the victim even if they receive the ransom. So if they call to demand the ransom later, you must stay calm and don't panic. You must try to delay the payment of the ransom. The longer you delay, the more hope our rescue operation will have. This concerns the safety of Miss Wen's life."
Mr. Wen said in a trembling voice: "Please rest assured, Commander Huang, we will definitely actively cooperate with your actions."
Mr. Mo's face didn't look good, and he didn't know what the situation was like on Si Jiu's side. As things developed to this point, he didn't dare to reveal the fact that Si Jiu had rescued Xinya, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.
At this time, Mr. Wen's cell phone rang. The vibrating ring seemed to shake his hand and fell to the ground.
Old Master Wen was so frightened that his face turned pale, his heart was beating wildly, and the cold sweat on his back instantly soaked his clothes, sticking to his back. He was afraid that it was the thugs who called, and his cell phone was damaged. If he didn't answer the call and made the other party unhappy, Xinya would be in danger.
Like him, Mr. Mo was also frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, and his breathing suddenly stopped.
Fortunately, the phone hit the glass coffee table with a "clang" sound, making a crisp sound, and then bounced to the ground, but it still continued to ring, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mr. Wen quickly picked up his phone and saw that it was Secretary Cao calling. It was probably about funding, so he quickly picked up the phone: "Secretary Cao, how much funding is in place?"
Secretary Cao said quickly: "Master, we have mobilized all the cash we can mobilize. Now the available cash is less than 300 million, only half of it..."
Mr. Wen was stunned. Half... Only half. He had many funds, securities, stocks, some fixed properties, and a considerable amount of jewelry, but the other party gave him too little time, and he couldn't use it to raise funds.
He was panicked. Three hundred million was not a small amount. Even if the Wen family was wealthy, it was impossible for them to come up with so much money at once.
Mr. Mo suddenly thought of Qiu Yifan, and a gleam of light flashed across his eyes: "Xinya has made some investments in recent years, and the cash available should be considerable."
Old Master Wen was stunned and couldn't react.
About twenty minutes later, Qiu Yifan and Ouyang Feng, with disheveled hair and untidy clothes, hurried to the Wen family. They were stopped and searched by military personnel in the hall.
All communications equipment was confiscated.
Only then were Qiu Yifan and Ouyang Feng allowed to pass.
Qiu Yifan asked quickly: "Mr. Mo, what's going on with Xinya being kidnapped?"
Mr. Mo recounted what happened: "Those thugs asked for a ransom of 100 million US dollars. How much funds can Xinya use now? Can she withdraw cash?"
Qiu Yifan said apologetically, "Xinya has a lot of funds that can be used, but the bank won't approve it without her. But I can apply for a mortgage from the bank, and maybe I can get about 100 million."
Mr. Mo said, "It's too late. The thugs demand a ransom before dawn."
Qiu Yifan shook his head: "Too hasty."
He was also extremely anxious. He didn't expect that Xinya would be kidnapped for the second time, and this time was even more dangerous than the last time.
At this time, Ouyang Feng said anxiously: "Xinya has transferred a sum of money to me for investment. If I operate it properly, I can probably cash out some of it, but my computer was confiscated..."
After hearing this, Mr. Mo hurried over to negotiate with Xiao Huang. Xiao Huang arranged for someone to monitor the computer, and then returned the computer to Ouyang Feng.
After Ouyang Feng turned on the computer, his fingers flew and the clear tapping sound of the keyboard rang out in the quiet living room, moving everyone's heart.
Time passes by second by second.
Old Master Wen stared at Ouyang Feng and recognized that he was the boss of Lanxin Investment Company, which was in the spotlight two years ago because of a money laundering case. He was a financial genius. In the past two years, Lanxin Investment Company has been integrated with international standards and has become a very famous investment company in the industry. The high threshold has made him very prestigious in the industry, leaving many people only able to look up to him.
Unexpectedly, Xinya actually knew such a talent.
It seems that the excellence of her granddaughter is far more than what she has expressed.
Thinking of this, he became more determined to save her, no matter what the cost.
Slowly, Ouyang Feng's face looked unhappy: "At present, it seems that the funds that can be cashed out are only 100 million, which is the maximum limit."
If we follow normal procedures, 300 million will not be a problem at all.
Both Mr. Mo and Mr. Wen looked a little pessimistic.
"Ring..."
The sharp ringing sound of the cell phone was like a nightmare, frightening everyone.
Mr. Wen subconsciously reached for his cell phone, only to find that it was not his phone that was ringing.
Xiao Huang came over with Mr. Mo's phone and said, "Mr. Mo, this is your phone."
Mr. Mo opened it and saw that it was sent by the bank. An additional 600 million funds had been transferred into one of his personal accounts. There was no doubt that such a large sum of money must have come from Si Jiu.
