Tang Qing had just hung up the phone and was about to take a shower when the phone rang again.
"Ding ding ding..."
The sa ringtone, but this ti it was his mobile phone ringing. Tang Qing pulled out his phone and saw a familiar number, a number from Qingyan City.
This was a ’custor service’ robot that he had exchanged for earlier. In order to avoid when urgent incidents occurred, the robots performing tasks would have no ti or conditions to notify him. Therefore, he had specifically exchanged for a basic intelligence analyst to be stationed in Qingyan City as a bridge between him and the command room.
"What’s up?" Tang Qing asked directly after answering the call.
Any event that required the robot to call him was of a high level, at least all were matters that he had specifically instructed. Because this robot was in charge of overall coordination work outside, it wasn’t necessarily related to Uncle Two’s matter, so he wasn’t in a hurry to enter the command room.
"Reporting to Zero, there is a situation with Target Seventeen. He t with those two from noon at the hotel." A concise female voice ca from the other end.
Yes, the ’custor service’ robot was female. Tang Qing thought female voices sounded better, and weren’t all custor services won? Now the command room was full of n, so to make it look less monotonous, he planned to exchange more female robots in the future.
Zero was naturally what the robots outside referred to him. Calling him commander in public sounded a bit like forming a faction, which might easily lead to misunderstandings.
When he heard it was news about Uncle Two, Tang Qing beca anxious and said, "I got it, I’m going straight to the command room."
After he ended the call, he quickly arrived at the command platform.
Combat Dispatch Center, Command Room.
"Tang Yi, what’s going on with Target Seventeen?" Tang Qing asked Tang Yi anxiously as soon as he appeared.
"Commander, one minute ago, the two people that Target Seventeen t at noon ca to his room. The audio information has been synchronously saved. Do you want to view it imdiately?" Tang Yi saluted and asked.
Tang Qing hurriedly said, "Pull it up, let hear what they said."
"Yes."
As soon as Tang Yi finished talking, he pulled up the audio information from when the people t in the room. Not only the sound, but also the text that was synchronized on the projection screen, everything was clear at a glance. This work was naturally done by Little Two, while the analysts were responsible for logical proofreading.
Information that the analysts cross-validated as aningless was automatically filtered out.
"Xiao Jun, I’ve already made the arrangents on my end. You shouldn’t have any problems with your jewelry company’s supply. With the suppliers you contacted before, it should be enough to support for quite a long ti." Tang Kai said.
"Thank you, Uncle Tang, for making a personal trip here," the person gratefully said.
"Heh, don’t ntion it. You and your father took such good care of in the past - how could I ever forget? Now that Xiong has passed away, I, Tang Zekai, am not ungrateful. I just hope you can pull yourself together. You were also brought up under my watch. Like your father, I too hope that you can make a career for yourself." Tang Kai spoke with a long, heartfelt tone.
"Yes, Uncle Tang. I won’t say much more, just wait and watch. I won’t let you down," the person said, a trace of teardrops in his voice, but with determination.
"By the way, Xiao Kai, why don’t you return to the country to start your career? Your grandfather said you still have a lot of relatives in the country," another voice, an old man’s voice, spoke up at this ti.
"Yes, but... never mind. I don’t want to get them into trouble. I’ve already upset so people I shouldn’t have, now I’m being targeted by another group. I don’t want to involve my family." Tang Kai said with a bitter smile.
Hearing the conversation inside, Tang Qing furrowed his brows even more because the two people his second uncle saw were Wei Jun and the old man with the surna Wang.
What on earth is going on?
He had just decided not to associate too closely with Wei Jun, and in a blink of an eye, his second uncle had so sort of relationship with him. From the content of the dialogue, it could be heard that it was not any ordinary relationship, it was one that could take risks and provide help in dire situations.
How was he supposed to deal with this?
If he got involved, he would be in big trouble.
Besides, his second uncle said there were people he couldn’t afford to offend, and now there were people watching him. The situation was becoming more complex. It was mind-boggling. He continued listening. At this ti, because of Little Two’s managent of the vacant ti, he had almost synchronized listening.
"Being watched? Who is it? Is it them?" Wei Jun asked in surprise. Simultaneously his heart jolted, and his first reaction was that Tang Kai was being retaliated against by the group that took their territory.
"No, I haven’t reached the point where they need to deal with yet. It’s a local jewelry company that’s envious of my business and wants to buy my company at a low price. But how could I agree, that’s the product of my life’s effort. Moreover, so many people are relying on for their livelihoods, especially the orphans I adopted. Without the company’s profitability, even if I have a lot of money, I can’t just eat away my capital. Just, that company has considerable influence locally, and I’m feeling a little powerless. To avoid drawing attention, I didn’t even bring any bodyguards when I returned ho." Tang Kai shook his head and sighed.
"Do you need help, uncle Tang? Although our family has lost its territory, there are still many people who are loyal to us." Wei Jun quickly said. His intended aning is obvious, do they need his help to take care of things? Although he had returned to their ho country, so of his ’banditry’ hadn’t faded yet. If it were an average person, he might speak in a more cultured and civilized manner, but his relationship with Tang Kai was different. Tang Kai had risked a lot to help him, and they’d been good friends for many years. In his eyes, as long as they’re genuinely his people, then they’re worth helping.
When they had left, they had managed to move many of their trusted people to relatively safe places. They had distributed wealth among them, much like Tang Kai, who had adopted many orphans. Over the years, his father had been charitable and had helped many people. As a result, Wei Jun believed that as long as he was willing, there were many people who had been favored by his family and were willing to do this kind of ’dirty work’.
"No need, you can help temporarily but not forever. Once this wolf is gone, another might rise to covet my business. I’ll wait and see. If I really can’t handle it, I’ll sell the company. I haven’t been back for a while, I don’t know how my elderly parents are doing." Tang Kai declined.
Although this is what he said, his thoughts were focused on using this opportunity to check on his family at ho. Because even if he sold the jewelry company, he didn’t know if those people would let him return to Bangkok alive. Otherwise, Wei Jun’s matter would’ve been taken care of with just a phone call, he would not have needed to take a personal trip.
"That’s also true. But Uncle Tang, if there’s any problem, don’t hesitate to ask for help." Wei Jun nodded and said. He had heard about Tang Kai’s predicant a long ti ago. Tang Kai had a large jewelry company in Bangkok, and many of his supplies were taken from them, so he knew a long ti ago that there were people interested in Tang Kai’s company.
That person was a local big shot with a dark background. Before, due to the deterrent power of the Wei family and the fact that the big shot also got a lot of gems and jewellery from Wei family, he didn’t dare to be too presumptuous. But now that their power has crumbled, Tang Kai, no longer under their protection, naturally beca a piece of fat at.
"Alright, you guys need to be careful too. It would be troubleso if they co to our country to find you." Tang Kai reminded.
"Do not worry Uncle Tang, this is our motherland, they won’t dare to cause trouble here. I won’t let them succeed. I’ll hire more bodyguards at that ti." Wei Jun sneered. One fall was enough, he wouldn’t fall a second ti. Having bodyguards was just a part of it, he also had other contingency plans in mind.
"That’s good. I plan to go back to my hotown in a few days, et my family, and then return to Bangkok. From then on, you’ll be on your own." Tang Kai sighed.
"Okay, Uncle Tang, we’ll leave now. You take care. If the jewelry company’s situation is truly hopeless, be sure to prioritize your own safety." Wei Jun said.
"Haha, I know, Xiao Jun, Uncle Wang, take care." Tang Kai replied.
After Wei Jun and the others left, the second uncle’s room fell silent again, leaving only the sound of Tang Kai smoking, one after another.
At this mont, Tang Qing was sitting in a chair, staring blankly at the massive projection screen in front of him. The amount of information he had just received was substantial. Firstly, he learned about his second uncle’s occupation. Secondly, he now knew why his second uncle had to leave all those years ago. Thirdly, he knew why his second uncle had hurriedly left after only one eting in his previous life. Lastly, he realized his uncle might have died after leaving....
