Chapter 427 Internal Strife within a Wealthy Family
The matter is simple: a domestic brand invested in and acquired Longshibao, but as the White Dragon King predicted, the business failed and the senior executives were injured.
"He's using his own Xuanwu destiny as the root, his life as the fuel, his bad luck as the fire, and his flesh and blood to vent his misfortune!" Fatty Lin summarized after listening.
"In other words, all the descendants of the Liang family have become sacrifices to maintain the family's fortune!" I said.
"They might be thrilled!" Fatty Lin snorted.
"Too!"
I thought about it for a moment and nodded.
The descendants of the Liang family are all doing very well now.
Don't assume that Liang Rujin is doing badly just because she came out to fight for the inheritance.
Liang Jiabang's children are all doing well and are quite wealthy.
Liang Rujin came out to fight for the inheritance because she was indignant and felt that her second uncle had taken over her grandfather's property, which was unfair.
"Uncle Nan, Liang Youfeng called me and told me not to touch the feng shui of the Liang family's old house. Does that mean he knows about this?" I asked.
"That should be it!" The White Dragon King nodded.
"In other words, all the rumors circulating outside are false!" I said.
The Liang family's affairs are not a secret.
Liang Jiabang's eldest son, Liang Youfeng, left the Liang family in his twenties to start his own business, building the Jingyuan Group almost from scratch.
According to external reports, Leung Ka-pong dotes on his second son, Leung Yau-kai, who ousted his eldest son, Leung Yau-fung, from the company shortly after joining.
As a result, the Wafer Group has now become one of the few core industrial groups in the world engaged in garment contract manufacturing.
His company produces fast fashion brands such as H&M and Uniqlo.
Looking back now, without the secret help and support of Liang Jiabang, the textile tycoon, how could Liang Youfeng have developed the wafer group to its current state?
Therefore, it's all an illusion.
"It's not exactly fake!"
The White Dragon King scoffed and said, "Rumors have it that Liang Jiabang dislikes his eldest son and dotes on his second. Now it seems that while he truly dotes on him, he has also truly harmed him!"
"It is said that with great power comes great responsibility. Since Liang Youkai has inherited the Liang family's legacy, he must bear the heavy burden!"
"It seems that Liang Youkai is a target set up by Liang Jiabang so that the other branches of the Liang family have something to fight over!" Fatty Lin said.
"Liang Jiabang has spent his whole life in the business world, so he has a knack for judging people. He knows his second son very well, which is why he let his second son inherit the family business and be the executor of his will. He knows that his second son, Liang Youkai, will not carry out his will seriously. Only in this way will the Liang family fight amongst themselves, and only through internal strife will his plan succeed!"
The White Dragon King said.
"Uncle Nan, I saw in the news that Liang Rujin said she sued her second uncle and discussed it with her eldest uncle. I suspect that this inheritance dispute might have been instigated by Liang Youfeng!" Long Nier said.
"That's possible!" The White Dragon King nodded.
"That's awesome!"
Fatty Lin took a sip of his drink and said, "These Hong Kong tycoons really know how to play the game. In just two years, we've learned so much about their inner workings!"
"The Yu family, the Medicine King; the Luo Yufu family; the Li Gua family; and now the Liang family, the Textile King!"
Fatty Lin counted them one by one on his fingers.
"Fatty, you forgot one!" I said.
Which one?
"I asked, Fatty Lin."
"You're not talking about the Lui family, are you?"
After saying that, Fatty Lin looked at me suspiciously, then clapped his hands and said, "No, it's Jiang Liangan, the Jiang shipping magnate's family!"
The affairs of the Jiang family are also quite fascinating.
Jiang Liangan, the eldest son, was almost poisoned to death by his younger brother's biological mother.
"I had completely forgotten what Jiang Lian had done if you hadn't mentioned it!" I said.
"Who are you talking about?"
I got both of his questions wrong, and Fatty Lin seemed a little confused.
"The Jin family of Jingu!" I said.
"Damn it, how could I forget about him!" Fatty Lin clapped his hands.
We all know about Jin Guqian's dirty deeds, such as Li Feihong sending his eldest daughter to be his secretary, and his secret room Patty.
None of that matters. What matters is that Ye Huan, the actress he sent to China to help him expand the domestic market, is his grandson's girlfriend.
The shady dealings involved are obvious; those who know, know.
"Uncle Nan, none of these wealthy families follow the normal path. They resort to these crooked and wicked methods, and they'll get their comeuppance sooner or later!" I said.
"It's not that it won't happen, it's just that the time hasn't come yet!" The White Dragon King sighed, seemingly lost in thought.
This statement proved prophetic once again.
Perhaps it wasn't a self-fulfilling prophecy, but rather that some things were simply the retribution they deserved.
The companies mentioned above all received their just deserts years later.
Due to Liang Jiabang's machinations, the Liang family was constantly embroiled in internal strife. A few years later, Liang Youkai went insane, and his other siblings suffered various misfortunes, including death, injury, and kidnapping.
This is the price they have to pay.
Li Gua's second son, Li Er, who committed countless evil deeds, ended up with two mentally disabled sons and two mentally disabled grandsons.
Li Da's son, whom he obtained through the evil magic of cutting the golden boy, also developed problems; to put it bluntly, he was attracting evil spirits.
As for Li Gua himself, although he was alive, he was like a cunning rabbit being killed and a hunting dog being cooked. He had been John Bull's guard dog for half his life, but in the end, when John Bull was dying, he was going to kill the dog and eat it.
The others weren't much better off either.
For example, why did Jin Gu invest in Shui Zong and acquire shares in Daheng Real Estate?
He wasn't trying to be a philanthropist; he wanted to ride the wave of the mainland real estate boom through the Water Boss.
In the end, it was water management that brought them both success and failure.
Later, when Shui Zong was defeated, everyone thought the Jin family had successfully escaped. In fact, the Jin family had long been trapped in the mainland and could not withdraw. Later, due to the break in the capital chain, Blackstone Group took a strong stake in the Jin family's New World.
Sovereignty over the new world thus changed hands, and it gained a new master.
As for why the financial chain broke, the reason is simple: the Jin family, through their connections with Shui Zong, obtained many urban redevelopment projects, and most of the funds in their accounts were invested in them, resulting in no return on investment.
It wasn't that the various places refused to make payments, but rather that they dragged their feet, and as a result, the Jin family's cash flow broke down.
In contrast, some might say that Li Gua had a keen eye, not wanting to make a last penny, and withdrew from the mainland within a year or two to accumulate capital.
Pi has a unique perspective, and he's good at raising funds.
Only he knows what he did.
He withdrew in 2015.
Many stock market investors know what happened that year: the Shanghai Composite Index plummeted from over 5,000 points to a low of over 2,800 points, with thousands of stocks hitting their daily limit down repeatedly, leaving no room for escape.
This is not an ordinary stock market crash.
It was the forces led by America who meticulously planned to short-sell Great Xia, just as they had done to other Southeast Asian countries during the 1997 financial crisis.
The mole was a group of people led by Li Gua.
