The poorest rich man novel (Chen Hao)

The bunch of people barged into the shop.

However, the three of them felt that something was off. The bunch of people did not look a single bit like the police despite being in uniforms.

As expected, while they were in a daze, they lunged at them and got hold of Li Xiao first, then Chen Hao and Su Ting.

They then pressed a knife against their waists.

Chen Hao took a look at their uniforms and found out that they all bore the same police registration numbers. He realized they were trying to scare them by pretending to be the police. The leader demanded sternly, "Get them into the car and take their phones. Act fast!"

As they had gotten hold of Su Ting, Li Xiao did not dare to fight back. He only cursed, "Damn, you guys are too bold!"

"Move now. I will teach you a lesson later!" The leader gave a slap on Li Xiao's face.

In the end, with their heads covered, the three of them were brought to a dilapidated building and were locked there. Their phones were taken away.

According to Li Xiao, the person behind this was none other than Yang Guoquan's cousin, Li Xiaogang.

His cousin, Li Xiaogang, did demolition works for a living. He was very experienced in this kind of dealing. Two years ago, someone who offended Li Xiaogang was abducted this way from home. In the end, that person was brought to the wild and was beaten for three days in a row.

His police impersonation was later exposed. Because of this, Li Xiaogang was kept behind bars for a period of time.

Therefore, Yang Guoquan and Li Xiaogang were the first ones Li Xiao could think of as the culprits.

Obviously, this was Yang Guoquan's way of getting his vengeance, as he knew very well that Li Xiao would not be intimidated if he were to fight him face-to-face again.

After they were brought into the building, they were not interrogated by anyone. They were just kept inside a small room.

"F*ck, I will kill him once I am out!"

Li Xiao cursed viciously. However, he could not move for the time being as both his legs and hands were tied up.

Chen Hao merely advised him not to be too impulsive.

Chen Hao was at his wit's end. After all, his phone was taken away. If it wasn't for that, he would have given Li Zhenguo a call.

"It's getting dark and it's almost 6pm already. What should we do?" Su Ting asked in a slightly nervous tone.

After years of venturing together with Li Xiao, this was not the first time Su Ting had encountered retaliation from their enemies. Hence, she was able to remain calm.

The worst she had experienced was getting beaten up, threatened and blackmailed.

It was already 6pm?

Chen Hao reckoned that Li Zhenguo and the rest must be searching for himself frantically now. If Li Zhenguo could not reach him, he would send someone to locate him immediately.

"Li Xiao, Su Ting, let's be patient. I believe we will get out of here within an hour!" Chen Hao said.

"An hour? How's that possible, Chen Hao? I guess there are some more tricks waiting for us later on!" said Li Xiao.

Chen Hao kept quiet.

Outside of the building.

"Here, Xiaogang, take a puff!"

Yang Guoquan offered a cigarette respectfully to his cousin, Li Xiaogang.

"I have told you before that this guy has been holding a grudge against me for quite some time! This time, I will teach him a lesson! Otherwise, he will not learn! By the way, the location of his shop is very strategic. Coincidentally, I am finding a new location for my shop. Just give him ten or twenty thousand in return for his shop!"

"Don't worry, I will get it done!"

Li Xiaogang, a middle-aged and fat guy, said.

"Xiaogang, is it okay to do it this way? I would not want any trouble out of this!"

The mother and daughter whom Chen Hao had a matchmaking session with were there as well.

At that moment, they started to get restless and asked.

"No trouble will come out of this. I know Li Xiao and his wife's backgrounds inside out. You don't have to worry. As for that Chen Hao guy, he is even poorer. All of them are of similar backgrounds. Not to mention teaching them a lesson, no one will even know if they were beaten to death," Yang Guoquan said with a wicked smile.

"However, Li Xiao is quite a shrewd person himself. If we hadn't dressed up as the police, he would not have been so obedient. Otherwise, I would not have asked for your favor, as I will deal with him myself!" "Enough, stop beating around the bush. After getting Li Xiao's shop, you need to share half of the profit with me!"

Li Xiaogang demanded while taking a puff.

"Boss, one of the phones keeps buzzing."

At this time, one of Li Xiaogang's underlings walked over.

He was holding Chen Hao's phone.

Presently, there were at least fifty missed calls made to the phone.

"Gosh, that guy doesn't look like someone who can afford such a high-end phone. This phone costs at least ten to twenty thousand!"

The mother and her daughter were still there. At the moment, they were staring at Chen Hao's phone in admiration.

"Exactly. This model cost at least twenty thousand. I did not expect him to have such a nice phone!"

The girl was slightly taken aback.

She was wondering whether Chen Hao was from a rich family.

Hehe!

It was impossible.

At most, he was just a loser who loved to boast. Some people deliberately used expensive phones and wore branded clothes although they were in fact very poor. They would not want the fact that they were poor to be exposed. That was why they needed to put up the pretence.

The fierce lady suggested, "Daughter, if that phone really cost that much, why don't you swap your phone with his? We shouldn't suffer for nothing!"

"What are you girls saying? You will surely get compensated for the medical fees," Li Xiaogang said in an icy tone.

There was no way he would allow them to take the phone.

Of course he would keep the phone for himself.

The underling asked, "Boss, what should we do with the phone? Should we pick up the calls? Looks like the person calling him has urgent matters!" "You don't have to do anything. Just turn it off and toss it aside!"

Li Xiaogang reproached.

Looking at the domineering Li Xiaogang, Yang Guoquan immediately started to lick his boots. "Xiaogang, you are getting more and more impressive!"

"Of course. Let me teach you something, Guoquan. In this world, networking and connections are the most important asset. Nothing can defeat me as long as I have vast connections. I have friends everywhere. This is the so-called networking skills, haha!"

Li Xiaogang chatted with Yang Guoquan and the rest of the gang for a while.

"Mr. Li, how is it? He still cannot be reached?"

Many of the VIPs had already arrived at the banquet hall. Yet, the most important person was not here. What was worse, he could not be reached. Everyone was very anxious over this.

"Just now, we managed to get through but no one picked up the phone. Later, the calls were disconnected. Now, his phone is totally switched off!"

Li Zhenguo exclaimed with his brows furrowed.

"Could something have happened to him?" Zhao Zixing started to get alarmed.

"Usually, Young Master Chen will disconnect my calls whenever he is occupied. However, neither did he hang up or pick up the numerous calls I made. We have made dozens of calls. No matter how busy he was, Young Master Chen would at least give us some response!"

"Exactly. Moreover, if Young Master Chen didn't have his phone with him, how did the calls end up disconnected and how was the phone switched off later?"

Both Zhao Zixing and Li Zhenguo started to get worried.

At that time, Zhao Zixing's staff, White Wolf, arrived with a team of guys.

He approached the two of them and said, "General Manager Zhao and General Manager Li, I just stopped by the hotel where Young Master Chen is staying. According to the hotel manager, Young Master Chen went out earlier today."

"He has gone out?"

Zhao Zixing and Li Zhenguo exchanged a glance among themselves.

Many of the prestigious guests of the banquet had approached and surrounded Li Zhenguo and Zhao Zixing.

"General Manager Zhao and General Manager Li, what's going on? Is Young Master Chen going to be absent?" asked Huang Weimin.

The banquet hall was made up of several large private rooms. It was separated into an inner hall and an outer hall. The banquet was very grand.

It went without saying that the guests inside the inner hall were made up of all kinds of prominent figures.

Listening to their discussion, all of the guests started to get curious about the happenstance.

"Indeed, we can't reach Young Master Chen currently. We are trying our best to reach him!"

"General Manager Li, I found something!"

Panting, Jin Biao made a dash over to them.

He whispered something into Li Zhenguo's ears.

"What?"

Li Zhenguo's eyes widened.

The entire hall fell silent at once.

"General Director Huang, Sheriff Zhang, County Head Lee, Young Master Chen was kidnapped by a bunch of police imposters just a short while ago!" Li Zhenguo said.

"Seriously?" Sheriff Lee was shocked.

"Jin Biao, bring the witness you found over here!" Li Zhenguo demanded.

Shortly after, Jin Biao returned to the hall with a lady.

The lady soon laid out the full story starting from Li Xiao's shop being destroyed until the three of them were abducted. She had also explained the relationship between Yang Guoquan and Li Xiaogang.

As Jin Biao had paid a handsome sum to the lady, she was daring enough to spill out everything.

After all, both Yang Guoquan and Li Xiaogang were not ones to be messed with.

Several VIPs looked grim at the moment.

In the end, one of the guests slammed the table.

"Send someone over there right now. I would like to know the identities of the two daring fellows!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Everyone responded at once.

A group of people made a quick exit out of the hall.

At the same time, the guests in the outer hall were all chatting among themselves fervently. They were taken aback at the sight of the commotion.

"W-What's happening?"

A middle-aged man got hold of a driver and asked.

"I am not too sure myself, Director Jiang. But from what I've heard, Young Master Chen was kidnapped!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
