1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Chapter 362 Chen 9 is the Yun family's illegitimate child

After hearing what Eric said, Lu Chen was speechless. How could he blame himself for this? Lu Chen was also drunk. If Hongmen wanted to buy weapons, it wasn't just him who had to buy them. There were so many arms dealers in the United States. Could Wu Minghong kill them all?

"There's another reason." Lu Chen looked at Eric. He wanted to see what other reasons Wu Minghong had to attack him.

Eric said: "The second reason is that two people asked him for help to get rid of you."

Lu Chen was shocked when he heard this. Someone actually wanted to kill him. Lu Chen quickly asked, "Who asked him for help?"

"First, there is a man named Yun Qingfeng. This man gave him 300,000 US dollars. Ask him to help kill you."

"Fuck, it's Yun Qingfeng. I should have known it was him earlier. Damn, Yun Qingfeng, just wait for me. After I finish dealing with Yun Qingchen, I'll deal with you next."

After Lu Chen said this indignantly, he continued:

"Didn't you say there were a few people? Who are the others?"

Eric continued to report, "There is another one, Chen Jiu. Chen Jiu promised him that he would support his people to come to New York in the selection of the leader of the Red Gate this time."

It turned out to be the old guy Chen Jiu. Since you, Chen Jiu, took action first, then I will retaliate. I guess Hongmen won’t say anything.

Originally, Lu Chen had no intention of torturing Chen Guangyao, but given the current situation, it would be a little unreasonable if he didn't try him.

"Eric, please interrogate Chen Guangyao as well and see if you can get some useful information out of him."

Hearing that he was going to interrogate someone again, Eric immediately said happily:

"Don't worry, boss. I will make sure he explains everything clearly."

Lu Chen waved his hand, signaling Eric to leave.

After Eric left, Lu Chen lit a cigarette. He was thinking, why did Chen Jiu want to kill him? Was it really because of Yun Wanting? She was just a woman. Couldn't Chen Jiu find a better granddaughter-in-law besides Yun Wanting? Besides, he only helped Yun Wanting escape the marriage, and he didn't have any relationship with Yun Wanting. Even if they were angry with him, it wouldn't be to the point of making a mortal enemy.

But apart from Yun Wanting's matter, Lu Chen couldn't think of any other way he had offended Chen Jiu. Could it be that he was hindering his upward climb because of me?

Lu Chen smoked one cigarette after another, but he still couldn't come up with a conclusion. Helplessly, he could only pin his hopes on Eric. He hoped that Eric could get Chen Guangyao to tell him the real reason why Chen Jiu was against him.

Time passed by, and Lu Chen was waiting for Eric's news at home. In order to wait for Eric, Lu Chen almost turned down all his work and stayed at home.

Eric obviously spent more time interrogating Chen Guangyao than Wu Minghong. Lu Chen waited at home for three days before he received Eric's report.

That morning, Eric came to Lu Chen's study room with a tired face. Lu Chen was surprised to see Eric's face. He didn't expect that Eric, who always paid attention to his image, would look like this.

Eric now looked very slovenly. His hair was greasy and messy, as if it had not been combed for a long time, and some hairs were even stuck together. There were also many newly sprouted beards on his face, and he looked a little haggard and tired.

Looking at his clothes, he only buttoned a few buttons randomly, and the collar was open, revealing the shirt inside. The shirt had become dirty, with some stains on it. Not only that, he exuded an unpleasant smell, which made people want to cover their noses. The smell seemed to be a mixture of sweat, dust and other unidentified objects, which was unbearable.

Lu Chen said to Eric with some dissatisfaction:

"How did you end up like this?"

Eric looked at Lu Chen with some confusion and said:

"Is there anything wrong with me being like this?"

After Eric finished speaking, he looked at Lu Chen in confusion.

Lu Chen was a little speechless, and immediately asked someone to take Eric to his cloakroom to let Eric see what he looked like now. After seeing his appearance, Eric immediately said to Lu Chen:

"I'm sorry, boss. I'll go wash up right away and get myself ready before reporting to you."

Lu Chen waved his hand and asked someone to take Eric downstairs to wash up. Ten minutes later, Eric came to Lu Chen again. Lu Chen nodded and said to Eric with a smile:

"That's more like it. Tell me, what did you gain this time?"

Eric said with some pride: "Although Chen Guangyao was very stubborn, I finally managed to subdue him. I have basically figured out his situation. He has also basically told me everything you want to know, Boss."

Lu Chen said anxiously: "Then stop talking nonsense and tell me the information you got."

"Yes! Boss."

Then Eric began to report on Chen Guangyao's situation.

"Chen Guangyao, the leader of Red Gate Dezhou, is one of the ten candidate elders of Red Gate and the son of Chen Jiu. He also has a son named Chen Haochen."

Lu Chen quickly interrupted Eric. He already knew Chen Guangyao's basic situation, so there was no need for Eric to report.

"Stop, you don't need to report some basic information about Chen Guangyao. Tell me some other useful information."

Eric asked with some confusion: "Then what information is useful to you, boss?"

Lu Chen asked: "Just tell me why he wanted to kill me."

Eric said, "This isn't his idea, it was his father's. As for the specific reason, he said that you, the boss, disappeared Yun Wanting, which made his family lose face. So he wanted to take revenge on you, the boss?"

Lu Chen frowned and asked, "Is that the reason?"

Eric thought for a moment and said, "That's what he said, but from what I can tell, this shouldn't be the main reason."

Lu Chen looked at Eric with some joy.

"Tell me what you have deduced."

Eric said: "Chen Guangyao and Wu Minghong both confessed a lot of things. Among them, Wu Minghong said that Chen Jiu had a good relationship with the Yun family. Yun Qingfeng was also introduced to him by Chen Jiu.

Chen Guangyao also said that his father, Chen Jiu, and Yun Ruochen, the old man of the Yun family, were like brothers. He also said that Chen Jiu was a surrogate son of the Yun family. Chen Jiu joined the Red Gate and had his current status, and he also had the support of Yun Ruochen behind him.

So I think that Chen Jiu's desire to kill you, Boss, must be related to the Yun family."
