Chapter 78: Old Fox! (Part 2, 65)

Upon hearing Du Renyuan's remark about the Yellow Robe Society appearing united but actually being divided, Zhao Yue's expression remained unchanged. She simply looked curiously at Chen Mo and asked, "Momo, why did you suddenly come up with such a bold idea?"

Chen Mo had seemed perfectly normal when they had breakfast together at Mu Xiyue's house in the morning. How did he suddenly become so extreme and daring?

To propose a plan to take over the Hong family was something even she and Du Renyuan had never considered.

She had also guessed, just like Du Renyuan, that Chen Mo had encountered five assassins when he left in the morning. Although he was secretly protected and saved by Wei Lao's people, it was obvious that he had been frightened and thus came up with such a crazy and unrealistic idea.

The reason Chen Mo had this idea was mainly to attract the attention of the mysterious biotechnology company, so that they would come to him if they had any drugs to sell in the future.

In his opinion, in order to be noticed by this company, his status had to be high enough and valuable enough to attract their attention.

Furthermore, his status couldn't be too high, especially if it was too close to the authorities. The biotechnology company might feel wary of his identity. Taking over the Hong family and establishing a foothold in Shanghai would be a suitable position.

After all, the combination of the Yellow Robe Society and the Qing Society swallowing the Hong family didn't look like an official style. That's why Chen Mo had proposed the cooperation between the two families.

First, he needed to occupy a position that would attract the other party's attention, and second, he needed to show the other party his true identity.

Only then would the chances of the other party contacting him increase.

In response to the surprise of the two after he proposed his idea, Chen Mo smiled and said, "Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to easily swallow them. But what if I told you that some important figures among them would suddenly encounter trouble?"

As soon as Chen Mo said this, whether it was Du Renyuan, Du Zixi, or Zhao Yue, they all looked at him in astonishment.

"Important figures encountering trouble? What do you mean, Dr. Chen?" Du Renyuan became interested.

"Just like the five people in the nearby residential area today," Chen Mo said mysteriously with a faint smile.

"Like those five people?" Zhao Yue found it unbelievable. "That's impossible. It's one thing for Wei Lao's people to protect you, but it's completely against the rules for them to take the initiative to deal with the Hong family. Once it's discovered and reported, it will be a big trouble for Wei Lao."

Du Renyuan also immediately said, "Indeed, if Dr. Chen's reliance is Wei Lao's protection, then what you're saying is not very feasible."

"It's not like that. I have another reliance. If I tell you that I killed those five people myself, and it wasn't Wei Lao's people protecting me, do you still think the Hong family's people are untouchable?"

As the saying goes, if you don't shock people, you won't get their attention. Chen Mo's words completely shocked Du Renyuan and Zhao Yue.

They were well aware of the capabilities of those five people. This was definitely not something a young student could handle alone.

Moreover, all five of them were killed cleanly. Three of them were killed instantly with a single knife, and the other two were smashed into two piles of mud.

To accomplish all this without attracting attention from the surrounding people due to taking too long, even with multiple people working together, seemed somewhat forced.

Du Renyuan and Zhao Yue both looked at Chen Mo as if he were an alien.

If what Chen Mo said is true, it's truly unbelievable.

"Don't doubt these things. Just tell me how to dismantle the Hong family and take over their shares quickly. I need to know who needs to be dealt with in the Hong family and when to take action."

"I have my own way of dealing with the people who need to be eliminated. You just need to set up a plan to quickly take over the Hong family's shares. Don't let someone else take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits."

Chen Mo was serious when he said this. Even though Du Renyuan and Zhao Yue found it hard to believe, they didn't think Chen Mo was joking or being unrealistic.

Although they were curious about how Chen Mo would accomplish this, they were willing to give it a try based on Chen Mo's confidence.

After all, Chen Mo had said that he would take care of the people who needed to be eliminated, not the Qing Society or the Yellow Robe Society.

Both sides just needed to be prepared for when the key figures were gone and there was a vacancy in control of the interests. They had a way to take over those interests.

In that case, they would just need to put in a little more effort to make arrangements. Even if those arrangements turned out to be useless in the end, it wouldn't be a big loss.

The key was if Chen Mo could really accomplish what he said, then things would be interesting.

"Xiaoyue, what do you think? Since Dr. Chen is so confident, I'm willing to give it a try," Du Renyuan smiled and looked at Zhao Yue.

Zhao Yue was also interested at this point. "Since there is such confidence in silence, and Uncle Du is willing to accompany him in this madness, then I naturally want to involve my uncles as well."

"But the Yellow Robe Society has probably already been infiltrated by the Hong family to some extent. Can you distinguish between who is human and who is a ghost?"

This is equivalent to declaring war directly. We can't leak this information," Du Renyuan squinted at Zhao Yue.

He had always thought that Zhao Yue's performance was too mediocre. After all, she was the only daughter of the famous Zhao Tianhao in Shanghai. She shouldn't be so incapable.

Over the years, although the Yellow Robe Society seemed to be increasingly fragmented internally, its momentum of development had not been hindered at all. On the contrary, it had grown bigger and bigger.

Of course, this could be explained. After all, it seemed on the surface that these uncles were constantly expanding their shares for their own interests. That's why they were so eager to expand.

But the key was that they were able to grow separately with almost no loss despite frequent infighting.

The whole situation seemed a bit strange.

But strange as it may be, upon closer investigation, there was no special unity among them. Many times, they formed temporary alliances because of temporary interests.

In today's terms, the ten uncles of the Yellow Robe Society could form countless private chat groups with different participants.

Infighting and cooperation were also possible.

So although everyone felt a bit strange, they didn't have too many doubts.

It's just that Zhao Yue acted too rashly and directly. After all, it was an industry left by their ancestors. She should at least test her own abilities.

It's no wonder Du Renyuan always felt that he couldn't see through his niece whenever he thought of Zhao Yue.

He is saying this in front of Zhao Yue now to probe the internal situation of the Yellow Robe Society.

Zhao Yue just smiled faintly and said, "Please rest assured, Uncle Du. Although I haven't been in charge of the Yellow Robe Society for a long time, there are still a few loyal subordinates of my father who recognize me as the young miss."

Since we are cooperating with Uncle Du, it shouldn't be necessary to use the power of the Yellow Robe Society. With a few of them working together with the Qing Society, it should be enough to easily take over some shares."

"That makes sense," Du Renyuan still couldn't see through Zhao Yue's depth, but nodded and said, "Let's give it a try then. If the important personnel at the top suddenly have problems, it will be difficult for us to take over the shares that flow out in a short period of time. After all, there are several mouths waiting to be fed below the top position."

"We can start with the middle-level areas, the Hong family-controlled areas in the East and South districts of the Magic City. They are adjacent to the industries controlled by our Qing Society and the Yellow Robe Society. By eliminating these important managers, they will be in chaos, and we can quickly take over." Du Renyuan showed Chen Mo several photos on his phone as he spoke.

Hearing the areas mentioned by Du Renyuan, Zhao Yue nodded and said, "Those areas are controlled by a branch of the Hong family and are somewhat distant from the main family's influence. They are indeed suitable as the initial targets."

Uncle Du really has a unique vision. It seems that he has already planned it in advance. Let's start by disrupting their peripheral arrangements here, cutting off their influence radiating from the center, and gradually encroaching on their central areas."

Du Renyuan looked at Zhao Yue with a smile that wasn't a smile and said, "Xiaoyue, your strategic vision is also good. As soon as I mentioned the location, you knew why this area could be the first choice."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's mainly because Uncle Du gave good guidance."

"You don't need to flatter each other. Have you made your choice? These are the three main figures, right? No problem. Wait for my good news. How long do you need to prepare before you can quickly take over their shares after something happens to these three people?" Chen Mo said, noting the photos shown by Du Renyuan.

He had the Perfect Replication passive skill, which included a photographic memory. With just a glance, Chen Mo remembered everything.

"We already have some influence in that area. If our two families can cooperate, we don't need much time to arrange, maybe half a day. You can start tonight," Du Renyuan said.

"Okay, let's start tonight. But once we start, the Hong family will surely react quickly. How can we further encroach on other areas when they become more guarded?" Chen Mo immediately asked an important question.

"We deliberately want to provoke them, to startle the snake in the grass. The Hong family is not a united front. Many branches of the Hong family not only can't enjoy the benefits, but can't even have a sip of soup. They have long been resentful. Taking advantage of this opportunity to win them over, these people may seem useless individually, but once they gather together, they can occupy nearly half of the shares controlled by the Hong family. By then, they will definitely restrict the main family of the Hong family."

"But wait, aren't we attacking the areas controlled by the Hong family branches in the first place? Won't we offend the Hong family branches even more?" Chen Mo asked.

On the surface, it seems so, but in fact, after doing so, the main family of the Hong family will have a legitimate reason to send people to the areas controlled by the branches to participate in management, claiming it's for protection. The main family of the Hong family has long been tired of these branches taking advantage of their blood relationship to enjoy the Hong family's shares. They have long wanted to take back the shares that should belong to the Hong family. And the branches of the Hong family have been preventing this from happening. Guess how these branches will react when the time comes?"

"Mr. Du means that in this way, their internal divisions will accelerate, leading to more conflicts and turmoil?"

"Yes, that's right. At that time, the Hong family will think that we are trying to seize external resources, but in reality, our target is their central resources. When the Hong family dispatches a large number of their own people to the external forces area to engage in hidden battles with their branch families, we can easily take control of the center without needing to make so many arrangements around the periphery." Du Renyuan took a sip of floral tea and smiled.

No wonder they say that experience is the best teacher. Chen Mo thought that Du Renyuan's strategy was to slowly plot from the outside.

But the result was unexpected. He only used the attack on an external area to intentionally startle the snake, causing chaos within the Hong family. The target had long been set on the central area of the Hong family.

These people who play business wars and power games really have quick-thinking minds.

If you say they didn't plan ahead, that's not true. But when they really need to plan, all the strategies and tactics that were previously stored in their minds for future use immediately come to the surface.

After hearing Du Renyuan's words, Zhao Yue also nodded along. This Uncle Du was truly capable of turning the Qing Society into his own dictatorship, showing great foresight.

She had also thought of this step just now, but when Du Renyuan mentioned that her level was not bad, the look in his eyes made Zhao Yue instinctively choose to hide, so she didn't continue speaking.

"As long as we directly seize control of these central areas, the control lines of the Hong family's main headquarters and the periphery will be cut off. Then we can launch attacks on the periphery and encircle their center. Everything will be much easier."

Of course, the premise is that we can eliminate the important management personnel that need to be removed in this plan. These three in the periphery are just the beginning. They are originally from the Hong family's branch families and don't have much protection around them. As long as we want, we can strike at any time.

But the key is the handling of the central area. As long as the management in this central area doesn't encounter any problems, seizing a portion of the external resources won't have much significance. They will quickly recover and operate as before." Du Renyuan showed Chen Mo a few people.

These few people are the real key players.

"When should we take care of these people?" After Chen Mo noted down the key figures in the central area, he asked.

"After we swallow the external area we just mentioned, let the bullets fly for a while. The Hong family's main branch will send people to various branch territories under the guise of protection, but in reality, it's an opportunity to consolidate their power. Then we can proceed with the second step.

By then, the branch families and the main branch will have grievances, and the central area of the main branch will be in chaos. They won't have much interest in managing it, and we can send some friendly signals to the external branch families. Whether they are willing to stand by and watch or not, the impact won't be particularly significant.

Because suspicion has already arisen, the Hong family is already in chaos." Du Renyuan said with a smile.

"Alright, tonight, both of you can wait for my good news." Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Then I'll look forward to seeing Chen Shenyi's methods." Du Renyuan smiled.

Zhao Yue's beautiful eyes flickered as she glanced at Chen Mo. Although she didn't know how this kid would accomplish it, if he really could eliminate all the people mentioned in the plan, the Hong family would truly be in chaos.

She had to arrange for the Yellow Robe Society to be prepared as soon as possible, otherwise, they might lose out on all the benefits. Although they were allies, they were still each looking out for their own interests.

They could sit together and chat because of Chen Mo, the key intermediary. If it weren't for Chen Mo, Zhao Yue would even suspect that when Du Renyuan, this old fox, was making plans, he might have some ulterior motives and take a bite out of their Yellow Robe Society.
