… …
He's really … really going to settle the debt?!
After seeing Ling Yun beat up Han Tiexin and Zhao Jingming without a word, the representatives of the smaller families fell into a state of panic and despair. They thought that they could forget about their investments in the Ling Family and that they would definitely lose everything this time …
They thought that with Ling Yun's arrogance and unreasonableness, it would be a blessing in disguise if they could leave the Ling Family safely. They didn't expect Ling Yun to really want to settle the debt with them after showing off his might!
After the initial shock, they hesitated and looked at each other in disbelief. It was only when they saw Ling Yun open the cheque book that they were overjoyed!
They had long forgotten about Ling Yun's meaningful reminder and advice before he said he wanted to settle the debt. They didn't even bother to think about it.
"However …"
Ling Yun opened his checkbook and took out a pen. Suddenly, he raised his head and changed the topic. "I can settle your accounts, but because you unilaterally tore up the contract in the middle of the collaboration, no matter if it's the money you invested in the Ling Family, the shares you invested in the collaboration, or any other collaboration project, you can only get back your capital. Furthermore, you have to compensate the Ling Family according to the terms of the contract."
"Everyone here is a reputable person, so I don't think I need to explain more, right?"
Settling the debt was one thing, but there were procedures and methods to settle the debt.
When did Big Brother Yun ever make a losing deal?
Didn't you want to cut off all ties with the Ling Family? Didn't you want to draw a clear line with us? Alright, then you have to be able to bear the loss!
Ling Yun had money now and could definitely afford it. He wanted to take this opportunity to make a killing!
Ling Yun smiled. No matter how you looked at it, he looked cunning. He scanned the crowd and said seriously, "No matter what the cooperation project is, the Ling Family will take over it. You can only take the money and leave."
What Ling Yun said was very reasonable and legal. Those who heard it all nodded repeatedly. They already felt that the Ling Family was very generous to be able to get back their capital and only need to pay a portion of the compensation.
No matter how weak the Ling Family was, they were still one of the Eight Great Families of Huaxia. In the past, they relied on the Ling Family's influence to earn money. Now that the Ling Family was in trouble, they dared to unilaterally terminate their collaboration. This was akin to hitting someone who was down!
Who would have thought that they would be able to get their capital back? What else was there to be dissatisfied about?
"Uh … Patriarch, we understand that we are in the wrong in this matter. You're right, this is indeed a unilateral violation of the contract. According to the contract, we will accept the compensation that should be paid. You don't have to say anything more … "
Finally, someone dared to speak. It was someone from the Zhang family. His face was full of awkwardness. He had never thought that Ling Yun would really settle the score with them.
Ling Yun smiled without saying a word as he scanned the others.
The others didn't dare to say anything, but they were all busy nodding their heads. They would have to burn incense to be able to leave the Ling Family safely after encountering Ling Yun, not to mention successfully taking the money. How could they not agree?
"Very well! Then let's do it this way. Tell us the total amount that you invested when we first cooperated. Then, we will calculate clearly how much you need to compensate the Ling Family according to the ratio. After deducting the compensation, it will be the money that should be taken away. Is that correct? "
Ling Yun said with a smile, his abacus clanking noisily.
Ling Yue, who was at the side, couldn't help but twitch his mouth after hearing Ling Yun's explanation. He finally understood why the old master was so anxious to let Ling Yun become the Patriarch of the Ling Family.
Frankly speaking, with the Ling Family's current financial resources, excluding Ling Yun's own assets, if they really wanted to settle the score with these dozen or so families, the Ling Family wouldn't be able to afford it even if they sold everything they had.
Ling Yue was in charge of the Ling Family's finances, so he was very clear that the Ling Family had been weak for the past eighteen years. Gradually, they couldn't make ends meet and had long become an empty shell!
The Ling Family was just barely hanging on, tearing down the east wall to pay the west wall.
Now, these partners wanted to settle the score with the Ling Family. In the words of the financial industry, this was called a run on the bank!
If they really agreed to it all at once, not only would the Ling Family's assets be emptied in an instant, all of their businesses would immediately come to a halt, their shares would be taken away, and the projects that they were working on would directly collapse …
If there was one word to describe such a situation, it would be bankruptcy!
After the Sun and Chen Families signed the agreement to fight to the death, they publicly announced their alliance and then spread the news to cause these small families to panic. This was all so that they could conduct a run on the Ling Family to suppress their morale and cause the Ling Family to collapse financially before the war!
This was called subduing the enemy without a fight! How sinister and vicious was this?
However, it was true that the Ling Family didn't have money, but Ling Yun did!
Ling Yue didn't know how much Ling Yun had in the bank, but he knew that Ling Yun owned the Heaven and Earth Group in Qingshui City!
Ling Yun could afford to give them within a hundred billion!
Therefore, not only did Ling Yun not reject these people, but he also took advantage of the situation and took the opportunity to settle the score with these people!
This way, all the investments and shares that the Ling Family originally worked on with these small families could all be taken back and controlled by the Ling Family alone!
In other words, after so many years of cooperation with the Ling Family, these small families were basically serving the Ling Family for nothing. They were letting the Ling Family use their money and work for the Ling Family for nothing. All the profits from those projects in the future would also be earned by the Ling Family for nothing!
Moreover, according to the contract, these people could only get back sixty percent of their capital after the compensation. Even their initial investment would have to be returned to the Ling Family for nothing!
This wasn't even counting the interest!
The most important thing was that these small families knew this was the case, but they had to suffer in silence. Instead, it was their fault. The Ling Family was settling the score with them, but they still had to be grateful to the Ling Family!
This was a profitable business!
Ling Yun wouldn't be Ling Yun if he were to miss out on such a huge advantage!
The Sun and Chen Families' wishful thinking was to crush the Ling Family financially. In the end, they had unknowingly given the Ling Family a huge gift that was incomparably generous!
This move of Ling Yun's was simply too beautiful to describe!
"That's right, that's right, let's do it this way!"
"Thank you, Head of the Ling Family!"
"The Ling Family has done this beautifully. I have nothing else to say …"
…
After Ling Yun explained the settlement plan clearly, the people from the ten small families nodded their heads and praised Ling Yun. At the same time, a huge stone in their hearts was finally lifted off the ground.
At this time, how could they still think about profits? It would be great if they could even get back half of their capital!
In any case, the Ling Family would definitely be destroyed in three days!
At this moment, Ling Yun smiled brightly. "Very good, then let's start settling the score!"
He raised his hand and pointed at the Zhang Family. "Let's start with your family."
When the person from the Zhang Family heard this, he was stunned at first. Then, a smile blossomed on his face. He couldn't hide it even if he wanted to. He immediately said, "Our family cooperated with the Ling Family on five oil fields, all in the northwest. The initial investment was two billion yuan. According to the contract, we unilaterally rescinded the agreement and had to compensate the Ling Family one billion yuan."
Five oil fields in the northwest?
When Ling Yun heard this, he was stunned. He didn't expect the Ling Family to have oil fields in the northwest.
He immediately turned his head to look at Ling Yue.
Ling Yue smiled and said through telepathy, "Yun Er, this was the oil business of our Ling Family in the past. Now, it can be considered the only thing left. Even though the oil fields are still there, they are in the desert. Our Ling Family is unable to develop them, so we let out a portion of our shares. The Zhang Family invested in them."
"Oh."
After listening to Ling Yue's explanation, Ling Yun nodded his head and asked, "Is what he said correct?"
"Yes, it is." Ling Yue smiled.
At this time, the person from the Zhang Family smiled and said, "Invest two billion yuan and compensate the Ling Family with one billion yuan. You only need to give us one billion yuan … As for the withdrawal contract, I have already prepared it and signed it. Please take a look …"
Then, he looked at Ling Yun with anticipation. The smile on his face was so wide that it could be seen from his face. He was afraid that Ling Yun would suddenly change his mind.
However, what he didn't know was that Ling Yun was beaming in his heart. He was truly happy!
Ling Yun seemed to be suppressing his laughter as he quickly filled up the check for one billion yuan. After signing it, he immediately handed it to Cui Lao for him to deliver to the Zhang Family.
Cui Lao took the check and handed it to the Zhang Family. Then, he took the contract back and handed it to Ling Yun.
Ling Yun used his divine sense to scan the contract. After confirming that there were no problems, he signed it and handed it to Ling Yue.
Ling Yue looked at it seriously and nodded with a smile. "No problem, we're even."
Money and goods were cleared.
In this case, the five oil fields of the Ling Family finally returned to the Ling Family and became their sole proprietorship.
On the other side, the person from the Zhang Family held the check with ecstasy in his eyes. However, very quickly, he began to wonder if Ling Yun had written an empty check since he was so straightforward.
His lips trembled as he wanted to ask the question in his heart. However, he looked at the two pig heads and hesitated.
As if seeing through his thoughts, Ling Yun smiled disdainfully. "Don't worry. You can send people to check whether it's an empty check or not. I won't mind."
One billion yuan was not a small amount even for these big families. Ling Yun couldn't possibly be so overbearing that they couldn't even be worried.
Excluding inflation, interest, and the future ownership of the five oil fields and all the profits, this compensation of one billion yuan was all for nothing. How could Ling Yun not be more magnanimous?
Hearing this, the person from the Zhang Family smiled awkwardly. He raised his hand to wipe his sweat and said, "How can I not believe it? The words of the Ling Family carry weight. Everyone in Beijing knows that."
After saying that, the man stood up and was about to leave.
He had already achieved his goal and was now satisfied. Facing Ling Yun, this malefic existence, he felt uncomfortable even sitting for a second longer. Of course, he wanted to slip away.
Ling Yun said faintly, "Sit down and don't move. Since you came together, of course you should leave together."
