C169 Dining with the Huang Family
From their conversation, they knew that they were still discussing about Wu Tian. They were still suspicious about Wu Tian’s identity. They didn’t know if this brat was the young master of the Wealthy Class or not.
Right now, even Huang Old Master was not at a loss.
Just now, he sent a few groups of people to investigate Wu Tian’s background, but they all came to similar conclusions. They didn’t even find the power behind Wu Tian.
Now, everyone was more curious about Wu Tian, but they felt that this brat was a bit mysterious.
He didn’t think that out of nearly a hundred people within the Huang Family, they would be stumped by the background of a little brat.
After some discussion, Huang Old Master finally decided to treat Wu Tian as an ordinary guest before clarifying his background.
Now that he saw Huang Lan and Wu Tian walk over, Huang Old Master brought the Huang Family people to welcome them.
“Wu, since you’re here with our Huang Family, then you’re our guest. I’ll get the kitchen to prepare some food and wine, please!” After saying this, Huang Old Master took the lead to walk towards the restaurant.
The people from Huang Family followed closely behind them. Only Huang Ze walked over and said very politely to the two of them: “Wu, Lan Lan, this way!”
Huang Lan’s footsteps paused slightly. She couldn’t help but raise her head and glance at Huang Ze.
In her memory, this half-brother had never called her so cordially before.
In the past, although Huang Ze did not humiliate her like the other Huang Family people did, he was neither hot nor cold to her, and he would rarely take the initiative to talk to her.
This was the first time he called her Lan Lan so affectionately.
She knew that Huang Ze addressed Wu Tian like this because of his face. To put it bluntly, he was trying to curry favor with Wu Tian.
Huang Ze did not say much as he brought Wu Tian and the Huang Family people into the dining hall.
There was a large round table in the dining hall. This kind of table could accommodate more than twenty people and was specially reserved for family members.
After Huang Old Master took his seat, the Huang Family people all took their seats as well. Huang Ze, together with Wu Tian and Huang Lan, sat beside him.
After sitting down, Huang Old Master asked Wu Tian indirectly, “Wu, what business does your family have?”
“My family does all kinds of business.” Wu Tian answered.
Right now, Wu Family was a huge business empire, with many different types of businesses.
“Then who are the people in your family?” Huang Old Master continued to ask.
He wanted to find some clues from Wu Tian’s words and find out if this brat was from a Wealthy Class or not.
“In all walks of life, in all walks of life, there are all kinds of people.” Wu Tian did not know much about the family, so he could only give a general answer.
“Is that so?”
Huang Old Master was slightly disappointed. From what he had said just now, he did not find any flaws.
After asking a few more questions, he couldn’t be bothered to continue asking. He raised his wine glass and said to the crowd, “Today is a festive day. It’s rare for our families to be reunited. Come, let’s toast.”
“Cheers!” The Huang Family people no longer bothered about Wu Tian’s background, they all raised their glasses and toasted Huang Old Master.
Just as the people of Huang Family were gathering and drinking merrily.
A square-faced man rushed into the dining room.
The man’s name was Huang Taiping. He was Huang Ze and Huang Lan’s father. He was the chairman of Taiping Corporation.
“Dad, something bad happened.” Huang Taiping reported to Old Master the moment he entered the restaurant.
Huang Old Master put down his wine cup and comforted him, “Don’t be so impatient. If you have something to say, say it slowly.”
“Because of our company’s product quality problem, many banks have cancelled their loans, and our capital chain has encountered a serious problem.” Huang Taiping wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
“How could this be?” Upon hearing that there was a problem with the Taiping Group’s funds chain, Huang Old Master became nervous.
There were many companies under Huang Family, but Taiping Corporation was one of the supporting companies in the family. If something were to go wrong with Taiping Corporation, there would be trouble with Huang Family.
“Dad, I suspect that our competitors are messing with us.” Huang Taiping analyzed for a bit and continued, “If we don’t solve the problem of the funds, our company will face a lot of risks.”
“Hurry, contact the major banks.” Huang Old Master naturally knew the seriousness of the situation and became anxious.
Money was the lifeline of a company. If the capital chain was broken, it would be equivalent to cutting off the lifeline of a company.
The immediate priority is to solve the problem of capital, which can be easily resolved if banks are found to be willing to lend.
“I’ve already contacted them. No bank is willing to cooperate with us in the short term.” Huang Taiping said dejectedly.
“This …”
Hearing this, Huang Old Master’s face immediately turned dark and gloomy.
The people from Huang Family all looked as if they were about to face a great calamity, so at this moment, how could everyone still have the mood to eat, they all couldn’t help but be secretly anxious.
After a short period of silence, Huang Old Master gnashed his teeth, “I have a good relationship with the governors of the various banks in Luzhou. It seems that I can only personally step in.”
With that, he took out his phone and began to make calls.
Everyone, including Huang Taiping, placed their hopes on Old Master.
After all, everyone was aware of Old Master’s ability and connections. Every time something happened, Old Master would deal with it himself.
Under the crowd’s watchful eyes, Huang Old Master made a few phone calls. After the call, the expression on his face turned even worse.
“Dad, what’s the situation? Are there any banks willing to cooperate with us?” Seeing that his father had finished his call, Kong Taiping hurriedly asked about the situation.
Huang Old Master sighed and shook his head helplessly, “The bank has already teamed up with their opponents, I’m afraid our company has no chance at all.”
“Father, Grandfather, looks like our competitors have long planned this in advance. This time they want to destroy our Huang Family.” Huang Ze couldn’t help but ask.
“No!”
Huang Taiping gritted his teeth as if he was unwilling to admit defeat, and said to himself fiercely: “Our Huang Family must not be broken like this.”
“But now that the Luzhou Bank has cancelled the loan, seeing the capital chain break, the situation will only get worse.” Huang Ze looked dejected.
Not only Huang Ze, everyone present from the Huang Family had a dejected look on their faces. Everyone knew that this time, the Huang Family had encountered an unprecedented calamity.
“Father, as the Patriarch of the Huang Family, you must have a way, right?” Huang Taiping turned around and looked at Old Master again.
“I …”
Huang Old Master gritted his teeth helplessly. Just as he was about to give up, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his gaze landed on Wu Tian, “This Wu has a good background. If he has such a powerful background and power, it shouldn’t be difficult for him to help our Huang Family solve this problem.”
“Who is this kid?” Only then did Huang Taiping notice Wu Tian’s existence, and he couldn’t help but question him.
“His name is Wu Tian, he’s Lan’er’s boyfriend.” Huang Old Master explained with an expressionless face.
“Boyfriend?”
Kong Taiping swept his gaze over Wu Tian a few times and finally landed on Huang Lan. He cursed, “Why are you looking for someone like that to be your boyfriend?”
He had never liked this illegitimate daughter of his.
