Chapter 1365: Go experience life
Upon hearing that Ye Chen wanted to detain him for three years, and that he had to use his own father to trade for his release, Su Shoudao was immediately panicked.
Just as he was about to speak, Su Zhiyu on the side asked, "Benefactor, you are targeting my father because of the Anti-Ye Alliance back then, but what are you targeting my grandfather for?"
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said earnestly, "I am targeting your grandfather for three reasons."
"First, looking at your grandfather's absolute authority in the Su family, although your father was the commander of the Anti-Ye Alliance back then, the one who was truly instigating it behind the scenes must have been your grandfather!"
Su Shoudao on the side heard this and nodded repeatedly with tears streaming down his face!
Ye Chen's words hit home for him.
In the Su family, the prerequisite for doing anything must be the old master's nod of approval. Otherwise, no one would dare to make a decision on their own.
Therefore, although the Anti-Ye Alliance was started by him, in essence, it was also instigated by the old master behind the scenes.
At this time, Ye Chen looked at Su Ruoli and continued, "Second, I don't like your grandfather's style of doing things!"
"This old dog is too ruthless. People say that even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but your grandfather, that old dog, doesn't care about these things. Whether it's his own granddaughter, his daughter-in-law, or even his own son, they are all scapegoats that can be sacrificed at any time. Such a person shouldn't be left in charge of the Su family's power, otherwise, who knows how many people will be harmed by him."
After saying this, he glanced at Su Shoudao and said coldly, "Of course, your father isn't a good person either. I heard that the order to kill the entire family of dozens of people of Matsumoto Ryoto was given by him?"
Su Shoudao lowered his head and didn't dare to speak, but he was still trembling with nervousness.
Su Zhiyu was also a bit ashamed. Her father's decision back then had also shocked her for a long time. Although she could understand her father's desire to seek revenge for her and her brother to a certain extent, she truly hadn't expected that he would give such a brutal order to Su Ruoli.
Su Ruoli was even more ashamed.
After all, she was the one who executed the order to exterminate the Matsumoto family.
Ye Chen continued at this time, "Third, if you don't hand your grandfather over to me, how could you sit securely in the position of family head? As long as he is still there, he will definitely not let you succeed. Until the day he dies, he will never release power to anyone else!"
Upon hearing this, Su Zhiyu was stunned.
She understood that Ye Chen wanting her grandfather was actually for her own future and safety.
Thinking of this, she was silent for a moment, nodded gently, and said, "Benefactor, I agree to your terms!"
Upon hearing this, Su Shoudao hurriedly asked, "Mr. Ye, before Zhiyu hands my father over to you, how do you intend to deal with me?"
Ye Chen said lightly, "I've already thought about it. I just happened to meet a new friend yesterday. The conditions on his side are quite good, so I can send you over to experience life."
Su Shoudao hurriedly begged, "Mr. Ye, I beg you to show mercy. Please don't send me to a dog farm, a black coal mine, or a place like Mount Zhangbai..."
Ye Chen smiled, "Don't worry, I plan to send you abroad for a vacation to experience some foreign customs."
Su Shoudao's heart skipped a beat, and he blurted out, "Mr. Ye, I don't know... I don't know which country you want to send me to?"
Su Zhiyu, Su Ruoli, and Du Haiqing also looked at Ye Chen nervously.
Everyone was afraid that Ye Chen would suddenly name some third-world country in Africa. If he were sent to one of the poorest countries in the world, like Congo, Zimbabwe, or Liberia, he would truly suffer endless hardships.
Thinking of this, Su Shoudao couldn't help but beg, "Mr. Ye, I beg you not to send me to Africa... I'm old, I can't handle that kind of tossing..."
Hearing this, Ye Chen smiled and said, "Mr. Su is overthinking it. I don't have any connections in Africa, so even if I wanted to send you there, there's no suitable place."
Su Shoudao finally breathed half a sigh of relief.
In his view, as long as he didn't go to Africa, basically everything else could be acceptable.
Even if it were Myanmar or Cambodia, the conditions and safety level in all aspects would be better than Africa.
Thus, he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Ye, where exactly are you sending me?"
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said three words lightly: "Syria!"
Upon hearing these three words, Su Shoudao felt a buzz in his brain, and a huge force rushed straight to his forehead.
He panicked and thought to himself, "Syria?! Isn't there a war going on there?! Going to such a place at this time, can safety be guaranteed?"
Su Zhiyu blurted out nervously, "Benefactor, the situation in Syria is turbulent. Not only are there opposition parties and other armed forces in the country, but the United States also seems to have frequent military actions. It's really too dangerous. Can you change to another place?"
Ye Chen shook his head, "There's no changing it. You're going to Syria."
Seeing that Su Shoudao was very nervous, Su Ruoli comforted him, "You don't need to worry too much. Although the situation in Syria is relatively turbulent, the capital, Damascus, is still relatively safe. The opposition parties and other armed forces haven't attacked there."
Having said that, she added, "Damascus has a long history, and its modernization progress is quite good. After all, Syria's GDP per capita isn't low."
Hearing this, Su Shoudao breathed a sigh of relief. Although he hadn't been to Damascus, hearing this made him feel that it was actually not bad.
Thus, he couldn't help but think to himself, "In my impression, although the country of Syria has been in war for years, it's not considered very poor. After all, it's also a middle-income country."
"If I go to the capital, Damascus, I can also experience foreign customs. If Zhiyu can truly become the Su family head, then I will be the father of the family head, and when I return, I can continue to live the life of a person above others!"
Thinking of this, he was happy in his heart and hurriedly said, "Since Mr. Ye has arranged it this way, then I, Su, have absolutely no objections."
Ye Chen looked at Su Shoudao and said with great interest, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Su, I forgot to tell you: my friend is the leader of an armed faction of the Syrian opposition. He just fought a battle with the government army a few days ago and won. He's truly got something. And this person studied in our China for many years back then, so his Chinese is very good. It will be more convenient for you to communicate with him after you go."
Having said that, Ye Chen added, "However, after you arrive in Syria, you must be careful. Once a war starts, you must protect yourself well. Guns and cannons have no eyes; don't get accidentally injured."
Upon hearing this, Su Shoudao collapsed immediately: "What?! Opposition?! Mr. Ye, what do you want me to do with the opposition armed forces?!"
Ye Chen smiled, "Didn't I say it? I'm sending you over to experience life. You've lived in luxury for so many years, why not try a different way of living!"
Su Shoudao said in a panic, "But what if your friend is defeated? What will I do? I might really die there..."
Ye Chen said thoughtfully, "What you said is actually quite reasonable. By the way, do you have any US dollar assets overseas that you can mobilize at any time?"
Su Shoudao thought for a while and said, "The vast majority of the Su family's assets are under my father's control, but I can mobilize a few tens of millions of US dollars. The amount isn't large, so he won't be able to discover it."
Ye Chen immediately said, "Very good. Then when you arrive in Syria, just transfer this money to my friend. Consider it supporting his revolutionary cause."
