Chapter 511: The Old Man's Second Probe
On the 25th, the Zhang family held a simple funeral.
Compared to the funeral of eldest son Zhang Xunzhe, this funeral was much simpler.
Besides the Zhang family members and a dozen or so relatives, only Zhang Zaixuan's friends came.
After seeing off the guests, Zhang Zaixuan summoned the steward Shen Rongcan.
"Rongcan, I think the deaths of Youxun and Shangren still need to be investigated."
Zhang Zaixuan said, frowning.
"Yes!"
Shen Rongcan nodded.
He was about to leave when Zhang Zaixuan again said, "Call Shangxun over to keep me company."
"Okay!"
Shen Rongcan bent slightly at the waist, opened the door, and left.
Outside, Lin Feng was standing by the pond looking at the lotus flowers.
Inside, a turtle stretched its neck to look at him.
Lin Feng tossed the stone from his hand, and the turtle was flipped over again.
Just then Shen Rongcan came over and whispered, "Young master, the president ordered me to investigate the deaths of Zhang Youxun and Zhang Shangren; he thinks their deaths are suspicious."
Lin Feng sighed and said, "We've just finished the funeral; Grandfather is too sad. For some matters, we should still share the burden for him. What do you think?"
Shen Rongcan nodded, "I understand! Young master, the president wants you to go inside."
Lin Feng nodded, turned, and went to the room where Zhang Zaixuan was.
Shen Rongcan understood Lin Feng's meaning.
Frankly, it's just investigating a bunch of nothing!
If we uncover something, aren't we just adding trouble for the old man?
That way, after a while, he'll forget about this matter.
Anyway, that's how Shen Rongcan understands it.
Under the conglomerates of Han Guo, many institutions and talents are nurtured, and they secretly control the Society People groups.
Shen Rongcan is responsible for contacting these people raised by the Zhang family and conveying Zhang Zaixuan's orders downward.
It's equivalent to a megaphone.
If this megaphone develops its own ideas, the strength and execution of tasks will greatly diminish.
Compared to before, now Shen Rongcan just makes a phone call to give orders.
But now, after Lin Feng left, he stands by the lotus pond.
Anyway, if he can delay an hour, he'll delay an hour.
If he can't delay any longer, he'll find someone incapable to handle it.
In a few days, it will be the time for the young master to marry the Li family's young lady; by then, Zhang Zaixuan will probably have forgotten about it almost completely.
Even if Zhang Zaixuan brings this up, Shen Rongcan has already figured out how to respond.
"Grandfather, don't be sad; it's bad for your health."
Entering the room, seeing Zhang Zaixuan's sorrowful expression, Lin Feng gently advised.
Zhang Zaixuan smiled and said, "One is my son, one is my grandson. Last month your father left me, this month… sigh!"
After sighing, Zhang Zaixuan asked Lin Feng for his opinion on managing the company.
Lin Feng had long prepared his response: "Grandfather, I have no experience; if you let me manage the company, I fear I would become a puppet in the short term…"
His statement leaned conservative.
Some people hearing it might say Lin Feng lacks ambition.
Yet Lin Feng's saying this pleased Zhang Zaixuan greatly.
Nowadays, in Han Guo, virtually every industry is monopolized by these conglomerates.
There's basically no need to change the company.
As long as finances and personnel are well supervised, that's enough.
Since everything is monopolized, there naturally won't be any losses.
After chatting a while, Zhang Zaixuan took out a stack of documents from the drawer,
He said to Lin Feng, "This is the inheritance draft I prepared. My health is poor; I originally planned to hand over the family assets to you after a while, but now I cannot."
Having said that, he shoved the documents into Lin Feng's hands.
Lin Feng received the documents and took a look.
Eighty percent of the Zhang family's assets are left to Lin Feng.
The remaining twenty percent is divided among the other Zhang family members.
After looking them over, Lin Feng returned them to Zhang Zaixuan, saying, "Grandfather, your health is still fine; for now don't consider these—keeping your body healthy is most important."
Zhang Zaixuan had been observing Lin Feng.
While looking at the documents, Lin Feng first felt delighted, then quickly calmed down.
This also pleased Zhang Zaixuan.
This shows that this grandson has desire but also knows restraint.
Regardless of whether this concern for him is genuine, this approach leaves him with nothing to say.
Lin Feng naturally also understands that this is the old man's another probe and test.
However, from the documents Lin Feng also learned that the Zhang family's direct or indirect shareholdings in groups such as Samsung, Hyundai, and Lotte,
plus a shipyard and a port, give them total assets exceeding 100 trillion Han Guo yuan.
Converted to dollars, it's also six to seven hundred hundred million.
Of course, this money isn't Zhang Zaixuan's alone.
If it has to be cashed in a short time, the amount you actually get will be halved!
That's still three hundred hundred million dollars!
Compared with Lin Feng, these few hundred hundred million dollars are really not much.
Indeed, even though Han Guo is wealthy, most of its assets belong to Americans.
Although Lin Feng is richer, he still doesn't underestimate this sum.
"Alright! We'll talk about it after you get married!"
After putting the documents away, Zhang Zaixuan said lightly.
The documents lack the old man's signature, fingerprint, and also lack notarized papers.
Otherwise, Lin Feng could now send that old man to meet his beloved eldest son.
He still has to wait a while longer.
"Shang Xun! Where did your girlfriend Liu Jiangyue go?"
Zhang Zaixuan asked suddenly.
That night when Shen Rongcan had his daughter Shen Youzhen inform Lin Feng, Lin Feng called Liu Jiangyue (Zhang Yao).
Zhang Yao took a plane to Yanjing the next morning.
In name, it was a business talk.
Lin Feng said, "She signed a cooperation agreement with Ding Sheng Entertainment over there and went there for business talks."
"Hmm!"
Zhang Zaixuan nodded and didn't ask further.
Then Zhang Zaixuan began talking about past events.
His own youthful affairs, and his eldest son Zhang Xunzhe's childhood affairs…
It sounded a bit rambling.
Lin Feng widened his eyes and listened, occasionally asking a sentence or two.
Before he knew it, evening had arrived.
Zhang Zaixuan, tired, said to Lin Feng, "The family matters are settled, you've been cooped up for several days, go back! Tomorrow arrange to go out with Li Huiying and have a good time."
"Alright!"
Lin Feng nodded.
Leaving the Zhang Family Yuan Zi, Lin Feng let out a long sigh.
These past few days have been truly exhausting.
Starting tomorrow, it's time to relax a bit.
"Hmm, let's arrange to go out with Li Huiying for a little fun!"
We're both about to get married, we should deepen our feelings.
Getting into his newly bought white sports car, Lin Feng just started the engine when his phone rang.
The caller ID showed it was Li Huiying.
He had just thought of this woman, and she called right away.
He also didn't know whether her foot had healed.
