Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background
Chapter 553 Appearance
This arrangement also made Cao Xing feel a little relieved.
What he could be sure of after two days here was that he now had multiple ways to determine the location of the first bomb.
Whether it is through the two people who placed the bomb or through special inspections of the rooftops in Shanghai, it seems to be successful.
But he can't take it lightly now.
He needs to wait until the fourth bomb is made before he can go find the first one.
Faced with this kind of nuclear bomb, he did not dare to be careless at all. After all, he had made a promise to Mr. Liu that even if he had to proceed slowly, he had to proceed steadily and without the slightest mistake.
But before the fourth bomb was made, Liao Wu called.
"Master, Gao Ya is really a coward. The negotiations were only conducted over the phone. We can't even trace the source of the call."
Of course Cao Xing knew about this, but he didn't expect Gao Ya to be so cautious that he didn't even leave the house for the negotiations. However, through his surveillance of the Gao family, he understood that the Gao family had lowered their guard at this time.
"You did a great job. I'm outside his hiding place right now. You must keep him calm during this period. It's also okay to make some concessions."
"Master, Colonel Han has arrived in Shanghai. He wants to ask you about the current progress of the matter."
Now that Han Weiguo has arrived in Shanghai, he can't wait to find Liao Wu and his investigation team to inquire about the progress of the matter.
Cao Xing replied: "Just tell him that I am completely confident that I can resolve the crisis, but you must stay put during this period. Give me another day and I promise to resolve the matter perfectly."
After Cao Xing gave the order, he sensed that the last bomb in the laboratory had been manufactured.
He quickly hung up the phone and stared at the Gao family residence.
At this time, the Gao family was holding an internal meeting, which was more simply a family meeting.
In the conference room, there were only Gao Ya and his two sons.
Gao Ya said in English with a slightly smug look on his face: "Now the four bombs have all been made. From today on, the Chinese government will be coerced by us, and we will always be the emperor of Shanghai!"
Gao Ya's voice was full of excitement, as if he understood that he had the situation in his grasp.
Gao Ya’s eldest son is named Kaohsiung and his second son is named Gao Ba.
Although it doesn't sound classy at all, when put together it forms the two words "Hero and Overlord", revealing Gao Ya's purpose in China.
His ultimate goal is to control China's economy like the Morgan family controls the Federal Reserve, thereby coercing politics.
This is a good ideal, but it is too far away at the moment.
Kaohsiung said bitterly, "Father, if we were given 20 years to develop, we might be able to achieve the goal of controlling a country like our family did. But I didn't expect that China was so vigilant and actually targeted our Gao family in advance, making us so passive."
Gao Ya smiled and said, "No matter what, the fact that the investigation team is actively negotiating with us can be considered a compromise. Moreover, we now have the threat of nuclear bombs. If China does not want to lose the city of Shanghai, it must look to our Gao family for help."
Gao Ba curled his lips and said, "If we take the initiative to expose our bombs, wouldn't that mean we are exposing ourselves to the Chinese leaders? I don't think the Chinese leaders will allow us to exist."
Gao Ba is tall and strong, but he is a careful man, and his heart is full of worries.
Gao Ya looked at his second son with appreciation.
"You are right, but the importance of Shanghai is something China cannot give up. We don't know whether the investigation team compromised because they knew about the existence of the bomb, but even if they knew, they would pretend not to know."
Gao Ya's meaning is very clear. He wants to endanger the lives of millions of people in Shanghai and develop Shanghai at the same time. The stronger Shanghai is, the more the government cannot do without it.
The stronger the Shanghai Stock Exchange is, the stronger the Gao family will be.
This is a closed loop, and it is also the strategy that Gao Ya has always been pursuing.
The bomb is just a means of mutual destruction.
The Gao family was destroyed, and the Shanghai Stock Exchange was destroyed as well.
There was a look of resentment on Kaohsiung's face, as if he had some serious opinions.
"Father, the church always asks us to be at the forefront. Now our family has begun to doubt that we have broken away from them. We may not get any financial support from our family in the future."
Gao Ya frowned when he heard this.
Their coming to China was a means of arrangement by the church, and from then on they were drifting away from their family.
Moreover, he has realized over the years that the church has been asking him to do things without giving him any benefits, which goes against the Morgan family's philosophy.
"There's nothing we can do. We've already boarded the pirate ship, and our fate is sealed."
"Humph! This is China. The risk we take is too great. The benefits and risks are simply not proportional."
"The church is very powerful. He controls many forces and has layouts in various places, and..."
Gao Ya seemed to be afraid of something. After a long while, he said, "They have superhumans! No one in this world can stop them."
Kaohsiung and Gao Ba obviously knew this, and they shuddered at the mention of it.
At this time, the elderly housekeeper outside pushed the door open and whispered something in Gao Ya's ear.
Gao Ya said seriously, "Aaron, go and give the last bomb to the two brothers of the Ma family and ask them to place it."
Then his eyes turned cold.
"After they come back, you should immediately arrange for people to shoot them dead. This should be done in a covert manner."
The elderly butler named Aaron nodded without any surprise on his face and retreated respectfully.
Cao Xing heard their entire conversation clearly from a distance.
He thought to himself that the Gao family was indeed connected to the Squid Church.
But now is not the time to think about these things. His attention is focused on the Ma brothers who planted the bomb.
He followed the Ma brothers silently and actually came to the top floor of the Huaxiong Friendship Building.
This can be regarded as one of the landmark buildings in Shanghai in this era.
After placing the bomb, the two were about to leave, but when they turned around they saw a figure behind them.
The brothers' first reaction was to silence the witness.
They are also well-trained, otherwise they would not have been given this task.
They just put their hands inside their clothes, but found that they couldn't move at all.
"Well……"
The two were horrified and looked at the young man in front of them in surprise.
The young man was seen approaching and slowly floating in front of the two people.
"You...you can fly?"
Even though the Wang and Ma brothers were knowledgeable, they had never seen anything that subverted their cognition.
Cao Xing smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. I am not here to harm you, but to save your lives."
"Save us? Don't confuse us with lies. We don't need you to save us!"
The head of the Ma family had a stern look on his face. Although he was afraid in his heart, he still pretended to be ferocious.
Xiao Ma was much more obedient. Although his body couldn't move, his face was trembling.
"Immortal... Immortal, please save us two brothers..."
