Chapter 351: Zhao Haoran!

A foot wearing a dress shoe slowly stepped out of the car and onto the ground.
Zhao Guang tensed up, and Elder Sun who was beside him stood very straight.
An old man got out of the car. His hair was all white, but the neat silver hair had luster in it.
As the old man looked around, the employees of Mingri Group all stood straighter.
Most of them had never seen this old man before, but the aura this old man emitted brought serious expressions to their faces.
With a majestic aura, his gaze cut to everyone’s heart like a scalpel.
Compared to him, the solemn-faced Zhao Guang was as genial as an old lady!
While this old man took one step toward the rotating door of Mingri Group, the employees standing at the door involuntarily retreated closer to the flower beds behind them.
These employees of Mingri Group were elites in the business world and had experienced the ups and downs, but they had never felt such a suppression!
Each movement of this old man seemed to put pressure on their hearts.
Before now, they were only informed that a prominent figure would come to Mingri Group, and everyone must go out and greet him, even though none of them knew who this figure was. At this moment, they felt like they couldn’t even move their feet when facing this old man.
“Mr. Zhao, this way please!” Zhao Guang walked forward and said to the old man.
The old man glanced at Zhao Guang coldly and walked into the lobby with steady steps.
After he walked into the building, the employees standing at the door heaved a sigh of relief. The greeting only lasted a few seconds, but they felt more tired than after a day of busy work!
“Summon the elders for a meeting!” While he slowly walked into the elevator, the old man said coldly.
This old man was Zhao Guang’s father, Zhao Haoran and the old dragon king of East Ocean, who just returned from the U.S.
“Ok.” Zhao Guang nodded slightly.
In fact, all the elders were waiting in the meeting room on the top floor of Mingri Group’s headquarter. Only Elder Sun, who was fitting to show his face in public, greeted Zhao Haoran at the gate.
While the elevator rose, Zhao Guang who stood about 20 centimeters behind Zhao Haoran remained silent, and so did Elder Sun.
Ding!
The elevator reached the top floor.
With the walking cane in his hand, Zhao Haoran walked into the meeting room.
Sensing the old dragon king approaching, the elders all stood up.
With a calm expression, Zhao Haoran walked into the meeting room while the senior elders held their breaths.
A wide armchair had been placed in the room. Zhao Haoran leaned his walking cane against the side of the chair and slowly sat down.
Standing on both sides of the long conference table, none of the elders dared to sit down without permission.
“Sit!” Zhao Haoran ordered.
The elders sat down as one.
Zhao Guang took a seat next to Zhao Haoran with a serious look on his face.
“I read the financial reports while I was in the car.” Zhao Haoran sat still in the armchair and said, “Domestic business was stable until the last quarter.”
Zhao Guang nodded and didn’t speak.
“The stock prices which hit rock bottom a few days ago have begun to climb up today,” Zhao Haoran continued.
Zhao Guang’s expression didn’t change, but he was a bit relieved on the inside. With Hao Ren’s parents’ help, he had gotten some big deals, and the news had pushed up the stock price. That was why Mingri Group didn’t collapse in the domestic capital market.
“From now on, I’ll take full control of Mingri Group,” Zhao Haoran declared in a measured tone.
Zhao Guang glanced at him and lowered his head in helplessly.
Although Zhao Guang created Mingri Group, its seed capital was provided by Zhao Haoran. The old dragon king was influential both in the Dragon Tribe and the business world.
“Since West Ocean, South Ocean, and North Ocean dared to make moves against our business on the land, we can’t just stand by and watch. Tomorrow, we’ll begin a new round of acquisitions, and the first objective will be the West Ocean’s Conqueror Group,” Zhao Haoran said lightly.
With this declaration, a bloody war of capital would start. With Zhao Haoran returning to China, three billion yuan of funds had secretly entered the domestic capital market.
This was only the appetizer Zhao Haoran brought back.
While he lived abroad, Zhao Haoran had accumulated a fund far exceeding the imagination of the West Ocean Dragon Clan. It could swallow all of the West Ocean Dragon Clan’s business on land!
If South Ocean and North Ocean dared to make moves now, they would get the same fate of destruction!
“Your Majesty, if we do this…” One of the elders expressed his concern.
The businesses on land were not important to the four ocean dragon palaces. They only used the business activities on the land and to take control of the cities and arrange their intelligence networks.
By acquiring the West Ocean Dragon Clan’s businesses on such a large scale, Zhao Haoran was declaring war against the West Ocean!
In fact, by uniting with the North Ocean Dragon Clan and the South Ocean Dragon Clan to issue provocations in the East Ocean City, West Ocean was trying to force the East Ocean Dragon Clan to declare war against them.
Zhao Haoran’s response was what the West Ocean Dragon Clan had been hoping for, right?
“For anyone who works against us, we will take them all!” Zhao Haoran was adamant.
He had been using this method in the U.S. By now, Mingri Group’s power had spread to the industries such as food supply, clothes, real estate, advertisements, tourism, and entertainment by mergers and acquisitions. The logo of Mingri Group didn’t show up on the packages of merchandises in the U.S. market, but its capital had spread to all walks of life in the country!
This method could also be used on the West Ocean Dragon Clan and its allies, attacking their businesses on land!
If Mingri Group acquired all the businesses and companies of the West Ocean Dragon Clan, they would lose their bases in the cities!
“If they dare to start a real war against us, we’ll take them on!” Zhao Haoran said.
With this declaration, Zhao Haoran forced the West Ocean Dragon Clan into a corner!
“Since you are claiming that the East Ocean Dragon Clan is suppressing you, then I’ll show you what real suppression is! I’ll see if South Ocean and North Ocean dare to work with you to fight East Ocean face to face! If they dare to make a move, I will eat up their businesses on the land as well!” this was the simplified version of Zhao Haoran’s logic.
Zhao Guang had been guarding the East Ocean Dragon Palace, but Zhao Haoran was the one who battled and established the East Ocean Dragon Palace!
Zhao Guang stuck to the idea of kindness and mercy while Zhao Haoran simply favored the method of war!
“And bring that Hao Ren to me,” Zhao Haoran continued.
