Chapter 940: Weighing Pros and Cons

~7 min read 1,380 words

"Giving us some face?"

Hearing this, Su Chengfeng said with a hint of emotion: "In this world, everything can actually be priced. People say that the hatred of killing a father is greater than the sky, but you give him one hundred million, one billion, or even ten billion or one hundred billion, there is always a price that can move him."

As he spoke, he changed the subject: "But! It depends on how much money it costs to buy this face. If it really costs ten billion or even one hundred billion, do you want to buy it too?"

Su Shoudao fell into silence immediately.

He really wanted to save Ruoli.

In terms of emotion, she was his flesh and blood. Even a tiger wouldn't eat its cubs; how could he watch her go to her death?

In terms of reason, she was a top expert of the Su family and was still young. If she could be saved, she could still make a great contribution to the Su family in the future.

However, whether it was emotion or reason, one must always weigh the cost before calculating the execution plan.

If it really required the cost of ten billion or one hundred billion, the Su family might not agree.

After all, except for him and the Old Master, no one in the Su family knew that Su Ruoli was his daughter; they all thought she was a subordinate of the Su family.

For a subordinate, spending tens of millions was justifiable. Like a top expert like Su Ruoli, spending a few hundred million was acceptable if they gritted their teeth.

But if they really had to spend more money, this matter would already be obviously unbalanced in the eyes of outsiders. By then, even if everyone reluctantly accepted it, they would definitely speculate whether there was any hidden story in it.

Seeing him silent, Su Chengfeng advised: "Shoudao, Ruoli is the Su family’s flesh and blood, your daughter, and my granddaughter. Of course, I also hope she can be safe, but for those who do business, one must always weigh the pros and cons. If the pros outweigh the cons, or the pros equal the cons, it can be done. But if the cons outweigh the pros, don't force it."

Su Shoudao asked painfully: "Dad, tell me, how much cost and price is the Su family willing to bear for Ruoli? We also paid a great price to rescue Zhifei and Zhiyu this time..."

Su Chengfeng thought for a while and said: "Ruoli is an illegitimate child after all, and her status is not honorable, so I cannot equate her with Zhiyu. Let's do this: within one billion, it will be easier to cover up in the accounts. If the cost is too high, it will be troublesome if others or your wife ask about it."

Su Shoudao hesitated for a moment and said: "Alright, then I will try first. I will fly to Osaka in a while to see if I can find key people to lobby."

Su Chengfeng said: "You don't have to go. The Japanese government already knows that you are the one pulling the strings behind the scenes. It's just that they don't want to fall out with the Su family for the time being, so they caught the people who did it and won't pursue it any further. But if you are still not sensible and try to leave Japan, in case there are any changes in this matter later, and in case someone among our people sells you out, I am afraid the Japanese government will change its mind and take you as the target!"

Su Shoudao thought about it and felt that his father’s words made a lot of sense.

Now this situation meant that the Japanese government had given the Su family a little bit of face. As long as the murderer was brought to justice, they could choose not to hold the Su family responsible.

But if he didn't keep a low profile at this time and instead ran to Osaka, trying every possible way to lobby and save people, then in the eyes of the Japanese government, he might be a bit ungrateful.

By then, the Japanese government might turn against them.

Thinking of this, he sighed and said: "I understand, Dad. I will fly back from Aomori early tomorrow morning."

"Mm." Su Chengfeng said: "You need to coordinate well. Don't put all your thoughts on Ruoli. The Su family has bigger troubles now. After you come back, we will hold a meeting to discuss feasible solutions at the current stage. If we don't hurry to fill the lost strength, some families will be restless!"

"Okay, I understand!"

At this very moment.

Yanjing, Ye family.

The major news about the Su family in Japan had instantly ignited the entire Yanjing public opinion.

All families were shocked by this news because no one expected that the Su family, as the top family in the country, would suffer such a big loss in Japan and encounter such a big failure.

However, this news was a huge bad news for the Su family, but for other families, it was the best good news!

The Su family’s strength in Yanjing was indeed too strong. Except for the Ye family, which could barely fight them, the gap between other families and them could be described as heaven and earth.

Now that the Su family’s strength was severely damaged, the gap between them and other families naturally narrowed, so everyone was naturally happy to watch the Su family’s joke.

Among them, the Ye family was naturally the most excited one, without exception.

Ye Zhongquan was pacing back and forth in the villa’s living room excitedly, muttering: "That gang of experts from the Su family has always been a thorn in my side, especially that Su Ruoli. She is young, her strength is terrifying, and her ability to do things is very strong. Her execution is ridiculously high. She has always been a thorn in my side, a thorn in my flesh. I didn't expect them all to fold in Japan this time! This is truly great!"

"Indeed!" Ye Changkong on the side was also full of excitement: "The Su family really lost a lot this time. Their top experts were wiped out by Japan. For a long time to come, they will have to keep their tails between their legs!"

Ye Zhongquan nodded and asked him: "How is Feng chatting with Ito Yuhiko?"

Ye Changkong shrugged: "Feng met Ito Yuhiko at the hospital, but Ito Yuhiko doesn't seem to have much interest in continuing this business at this stage, so he doesn't seem to be paying much attention."

Ye Zhongquan said: "It is understandable. After all, he lost his legs. Even ordinary people might not be able to accept such a thing, let alone a top tycoon like Ito Yuhiko. A period of depression is understandable."

Ye Changkong asked again: "Then should I let Feng come back, or let him stay in Tokyo to see?"

Ye Zhongquan thought for a while and said: "Stay in Tokyo for now. Go see Ito Yuhiko again in two days. Perhaps his attitude will loosen. There are still a few days before the New Year. Let Feng stay in Tokyo until the 29th of the twelfth lunar month before coming back."

"Good." Ye Changkong nodded and said: "Changmin is going to Jin Ling early tomorrow morning. It would be great if Chen'er is also willing to come back for the New Year!"

Ye Changkong gave a dry laugh and echoed: "It would be good if Chen'er is willing to come back, but if he is not, we cannot force him..."

Ye Zhongquan said extremely earnestly: "The Ye family itself is not very prosperous. If Chen'er is willing to come back, not only can he add a boost to the Ye family, but he can also lock in a marriage partner for us in advance. I dare not say he can definitely handle the Su family’s Su Zhiyu, but at least Gu family’s Gu Qiuyi is within reach. Marrying into the Gu family is also good. At least if the two families unite, they can suppress the Su family!"
