Chapter 769: Being short-handed and swallowing your anger
In response, Chen Qi asked, "Do you know what despair is?"
Suzaku blinked and didn't know why Chen Qi asked this, but still replied, "Does it mean that a person has no choice but to wait for death?"
Chen Qi smiled slightly, "Absolutely.
So how can one maximize a person’s despair?”
Zhuque was stunned for a moment, "I would like to hear the details."
Chen Qi put the tea cup back on the table and spoke calmly and concisely, "First give people hope, and then throw them into the abyss when they think they are about to see the light of day."
Zhuque thought for a moment and then suddenly realized.
What Chen Qi meant was to first let those in the Mu family see a glimmer of hope, and then completely crush their hopes.
In this way, can the despair they feel be maximized?
"Understood?"
Chen Qi asked with a smile.
Suzaku nodded with a smile, "I understand."
Chen Qi slowly stood up and lit a cigarette for himself.
"In these two days, let the Mu family enjoy the joy that hope brings."
Chen Qi took a deep breath from the cigarette and exhaled like a cloud, "When all of them are full of hope, let's bring them despair together."
"Don't you think this is interesting?"
…
As Chen Qi expected, the Mu family fell into a carnival in the following days.
No one else, just because when the Mu family was about to be desperate, someone suddenly extended a helping hand to them.
This is like when they were struggling on a cliff and were almost exhausted, someone suddenly threw a rope to them from above.
It gave them hope of survival again, how could they not be excited?
The rise and fall of a family is human nature.
To be famous forever is just a fantasy of ordinary people.
History is a long river, thousands of years.
Let me ask, which family power can truly prosper for a hundred generations?
There is nothing missing in this world, except for the wallflowers.
During the heyday of the Mu family, the family was so powerful that it attracted thousands of people to congratulate them.
But during their lowest period, they became the laughing stock of others and no one cared about them?
Fortunately, the boat is naturally straight when it reaches the bridge.
Now someone can invest 10 billion to help them tide over the difficulties.
Of course, not everyone in the Mu family has doubts about the purpose of the mysterious rich man’s investment of 10 billion.
After all, it is impossible for anyone to spend 10 billion to support others for no reason.
In terms of assets, the entire Mu family totals less than 10 billion.
In terms of influence, the Mu family is now in its twilight years and has long lost the appeal it once had.
What exactly does the other party want?
"Could it be that the mysterious rich man has taken a fancy to the potential of our Mu family?"
Someone in the Mu family speculated this.
This is actually not unreasonable.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Mu family has fallen into a low point, it still has the size of the Jinding family.
As long as they can overcome this difficulty, the Mu family will definitely be able to regain its strength and regain its glory.
The current head of the Mu family, Mu Jingming, has regarded the mysterious rich man as the savior of their Mu family.
He claimed that he wanted to meet the mysterious rich man and express his gratitude in person.
But the reply they received was that the other party would personally visit their Mu family in three days.
This made everyone in the Mu family extremely happy.
Therefore, Mu Jingming immediately ordered a grand banquet to be prepared for the mysterious rich man three days later.
Three days are enough for this matter to cause uproar in the city.
Everyone wants to know what the mysterious rich man who can easily spend 10 billion looks like and what amazing identity he has?
Ten billion!
Even the richest man in the world today cannot do this lightly.
Looking forward to the early morning in three days.
[Going to Beijing] In front of the gate of the Mu family, there are already lanterns and red festoons.
A wide red carpet stretches from the gate to the road.
There were even more crowds of people on both sides of the road.
Most of them were people who came to watch the show after hearing the news.
Driven by curiosity, everyone wanted to see the mysterious rich man's face with their own eyes.
Among this crowd, there are many reporters from major media, carrying long guns and short cannons, ready for call at any time.
In the past few days, the mysterious rich man has been described in such a magical way on the Internet that he has firmly occupied the top of the hot search list for several days.
How could they miss this kind of news with huge traffic?
At the main entrance of the Mu family, headed by Mu Jingming, the head of the Mu family, second-in-command Mu Zhengyuan, third-in-command Mu Yongtai and other senior officials of the Mu family were all present.
Because Mu Jingming had given an order in advance, everyone, no matter what big emergency, must be present, otherwise the family will take care of him.
Mu Jingming, the head of the Mu family, is now seventy years old.
He has gray hair, high cheekbones, thin facial features, and a serious imposing manner.
He should have abdicated the throne and enjoyed a long life, but now seeing the Mu family in despair, he had no choice but to accept the order in the face of danger and return to his old business.
Among the people of the Mu family, Zhu Chengji and Mu Ziping are naturally indispensable.
Since Zhu Chengji's status in the Mu family was very low, although he was able to occupy a high-level seat in the Mu family due to Mu Ziping's influence, he could only be ranked at the bottom.
Zhu Chengji and Mu Ziping can be said to love and hate the mysterious rich man who is about to appear today.
What I love is that the other person can help the Mu family overcome difficulties. As a member of the Mu family, I should be honored.
What they hate is that they originally let Zhu Chengji take advantage of this opportunity to get the assets of the Zhu family and donate them to the Mu family, so as to gain a higher position and be reused.
But now someone has directly taken out 10 billion.
With these 10 billion, how can the Mu family value the assets of the Zhu family?
Time passed by, and everyone in the Mu family had already gathered together when the morning light first appeared.
But it's already a bright sun in the sky, and that person hasn't appeared yet?
Among the Mu family crowd, Mu Kang was already impatient with the waiting, and complained in a low voice, "The mysterious rich man is really grand. So many of us have been waiting for him for several hours, and he still hasn't shown up yet?"
When a lady next to him heard this, she immediately signaled Mu Kang to be silent.
"Kang'er, don't talk nonsense, or you may be overheard by my old master!"
This lady's name was Mu Zhen, Mu Kang's mother, and Mu Ziping's third sister.
"What I said is the truth."
Mu Kang pursed his lips and replied, "Although he has funded our Mu family with 10 billion, he knows that so many of us are waiting for him, but he still leaves us hanging here?"
"I think he did it on purpose!"
Mu Zhen: "..."
Mu Kang's words were naturally heard by everyone in the Mu family nearby.
How could they not know that the mysterious rich man said that he would come to visit their Mu family today, but he still refused to show up, which was obviously deliberately making things difficult for them.
But, after all, they are short-handed. Even if others deliberately make things difficult, they can only swallow their anger.
